Chapter 578: The Five Cao Sutras
Song Xifeng's character, Song Qingtian disappeared with Xiao Ding, Song Qingtian appeared in the bank, if Xiao Ding had been following her, she might be less dangerous, so he asked: "Qingtian is a person who went to the bank to take the Phoenix Stone?" Or follow someone else? ”
Jiang Cheng shook his head and replied, "I don't know about this. ”
"Let's go and ask the bank's security guards to see if they have any impressions?"
"It's been a month, I'm afraid it's ......" Jiang Cheng hesitated, "That's fine, in case someone knows." ”
After the two went to the bank, Jiang Cheng noticed that the security personnel had been replaced, and after careful questioning, he learned that the former security guard Bao Dahai had resigned.
According to the bank's staff's recollection, Song Qingtian went to fetch the Phoenix Stone that day, and there was indeed a man behind him, according to the description of the image, that man was Xiao Ding, Xiao Ding seemed to have a conflict with Bao Dahai, and then Bao Dahai resigned.
In these years, working as a security guard in a bank, he can be regarded as a state employee, and he easily resigned without anything important, which is a bit unreasonable.
Jiang Cheng inquired carefully, the time of Bao Dahai's resignation happened to be the time when Song Qingtian went to the bank to take away the Phoenix Stone, but he had a conflict with Xiao Ding again, could it be that there was something hidden in this?
When I went to Bao Dahai's house and asked, Bao Dahai's family said that he went to the south to do business.
Putting aside the work of a state clerk and not taking risks to do business, this made Jiang Cheng even more puzzled, and after continuing to inquire, he learned that Bao Dahai resigned and went to the south with a huge amount of money.
Song Qingtian followed Xiao Ding to get the Phoenix Stone, Xiao Ding had a conflict with the security guard Bao Dahai, and then Bao Dahai resigned from his job as an iron rice bowl and went to the south to do business with a huge amount of money.
What's going on here?
Why did Xiao Ding and Bao Dahai conflict?
Why did Bao Dahai quit his job to go into business?
Where did the huge sum of money he carried come from?
When Bao Dahai went to do business, he saw that the Spring Festival was about to be celebrated, so why not wait for the Spring Festival to go to business?
Could all this have something to do with Song Qingtian's disappearance?
All the unreasonable phenomena made Song Xifeng suspicious, and quickly told Zhu Wei about the situation, Zhu Wei thought for a moment, "My intuition tells me that there is something wrong with this Xiaoding." ”
Zhu Wei didn't think much about speculation, according to the information provided by Bao Dahai's family, he immediately got on the train to the south.
A week later, Zhu Wei found Bao Dahai in Guangzhou and asked the truth.
On that day, Bao Dahai stood guard at the door of the bank, and saw Song Qingtian and Xiao Ding coming to the bank to do things, according to his perennial work experience, he always felt that Song Qingtian's expression was a little wrong, but he didn't find anything wrong at that time.
After Song Qingtian and Xiao Ding went out of the bank, Bao Dahai's eyes were suddenly dazzled by a light, looking for the direction of the light, and couldn't help but be surprised, only to see Xiao Ding holding a knife in his hand, facing Song Qingtian's heart.
Bao Dahai rushed out of the bank and chased after him, Xiao Ding turned unhurriedly to an alleyway, and subdued Bao Dahai in three times.
Xiao Ding held up the knife and said, "I will give you two ways to go now, the first one, you will die under my knife." Second, if you quit your job and leave Zhengzhou, it's best to stay away, you don't know what to do, and I will give you a sum of money, which is enough for you to spend a lifetime. ”
Anyone who is smart will choose the second one.
Although Bao Dahai is a security guard, he has a strong sense of responsibility, and when people's personal safety is threatened, he will not hesitate to speak out.
"I am the security guard of the bank, it is my job to protect the people's property, and it is my responsibility, you bandit don't want to buy me!"
Xiao Ding smiled, his body turned, and the knife in his hand stabbed into Bao Dahai's arm with a slight force.
Bao Dahai screamed in pain, Xiao Ding covered his mouth, and said in a low voice: "Your name is Bao Dahai, I have inquired about where your home is, who is in the family, if you dare to talk nonsense and meddle in things, the next knife will be in your heart, and your family will not escape the disaster." ”
Bao Dahai was threatened by Xiao Ding's family, he nodded helplessly, and left the bank like this, in order to hide people's eyes, saying that he was going to the south for business.
In order to prove that his words were true, Bao Dahai also took off his clothes, revealing the stabbed wound on his arm.
"When you were injured, was Song Qingtian by your side?"
"Yes, the woman also motioned for me to leave quickly."
"She didn't ask you for help?"
Bao Dahai shook his head, "She seems to be with that bandit, and when the bandit subdued me, she didn't look like she wanted to escape." ”
After listening to this, Zhu Wei felt that the situation was too complicated, Song Qingtian would definitely die and be coerced away by Xiao Ding, but when he heard Bao Dahai's meaning, Song Qingtian had no intention of escaping, what was the reason for this?
I thought that Xiao Ding would be safer with Song Qingtian, but I didn't expect Xiao Ding to be the key factor in Song Qingtian's disappearance.
When Song Xifeng learned of this situation, he was even more surprised, Xiao Ding actually robbed Song Qingtian? He deduced: "According to their previous whereabouts, Xiao Ding and Qingtian were looking at the accounts in the jade shop in Kaifeng, and the two of them left together after reading half of the accounts, so it should be that something unusual was found in the accounts." For example, there was a violation in the accounts and was discovered by Song Qingtian, the problem was what Xiao Ding did, and then Xiao Ding saw that the matter was exposed, so he did something to Song Qingtian? ”
Thinking of this, Song Xifeng couldn't help but become more and more worried.
Zhu Wei said: "Not necessarily, if Song Qingtian finds out that there is a problem with the accounts, Xiao Ding wants to coerce Song Qingtian to keep secrets, and he should not return to Zhengzhou to get the phoenix stone, their matter should have something to do with the phoenix stone." ”
"It's been more than a month since there was no news on the sunny day, will it be ......?"
"It's hard to say."
Song Xifeng's heart suddenly sank.
At the moment, Zhu Wei felt that he needed to go to Kaifeng again, the matter may be because of the accounts, and then go and see if he can see any problems from the accounts.
I carefully checked the accounts of the Kaifeng Vermilion Bird Jade Shop branch, and there was no problem with the accounts.
Fan Sicheng once again emphasized, "Our accounts here are absolutely fine. As he spoke, he carefully sorted out the accounts, as if he was afraid that Zhu Wei would spoil them.
Suddenly, Fan Sicheng exclaimed, "What's wrong? ”
Zhu Wei asked urgently: "What's wrong?" Is it missing an account or is it a ......? ”
Fan Sicheng stared at an old and yellowed book in his hand and said: "It has nothing to do with the accounts, it is the "Five Cao Sutras" in the ten books of the Sutra." ”
"What are the Ten Books of Reckoning? What is the Five Cao Sutras? ”。 Zhu Wei did not know much about these ancient texts.
Fan Sicheng makes jade and the like, and the store also sells some antique books, so he has deep knowledge in this area. Hearing Zhu Wei's question, he couldn't help but feel proud for a while, and talked eloquently.
"Zhou Ji Sutra", "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic", "Island Sutra", "Zhangqiu Jian Sutra", "Xiahouyang Sutra", "Five Classics Arithmetic", "Jigu Sutra", "Fixation". It is the Ten Books of the Sutra.
After a long period of accumulation by the working people in ancient China, there are outstanding mathematicians who have compiled the natural sciences through experiments, including measurement, geometry, algebra, astronomical calendar, pi and other various wisdom.
In particular, the "Five Cao Sutra", engraved in the Southern Song Dynasty in the fifth year of Jiading, the author is Zhen Luan of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, he is familiar with the astronomical calendar, once served as the doctor of Sili, Hanzhong County Shou and other positions. Tang Li Chunfeng and others have made notes for it.
We have a Song carved copy of "Five Cao Sutras" in our store, which can be described as the treasure of the town store......"
Zhu Wei was so confused that he couldn't understand a word.
"Boss Fan, you don't need to talk about this for the time being. You haven't told me what's wrong with the "Five Cao Sutras", how to put it together with the accounts? ”
Fan Sicheng remembered the matter at this time, and after thinking about it, he seemed reluctant to say, Zhu Wei's eyes were staring at him like knives, so he opened the book a little helplessly and put it in front of Zhu Wei, "You see there is not a word in it?" The treasure of our town store has been dropped. ”
"Who dropped the bag?"
Fan Sicheng explained unhurriedly: "That day, Senior Brother Xiao Ding came to look at the accounts on a sunny day, and Senior Brother Xiao Ding remembered this book and asked me to show it to him. ”
Zhu Wei heard that something was wrong, since this book is the treasure of the store, why didn't Fan Sicheng find that this book was missing before?
Fan Sicheng continued to explain: "At that time, I took out the book and showed it to Senior Brother Xiaoding, and they left after reading half of the accounts, and then asked me to put the accounts and the book together, and continue to read them after I came back. I've been keeping them together and putting them in the safe in our store, and I didn't pay attention when I took them out to show you, but I just flipped through them and found that there were no words in them. ”
"You mean Ding dropped the book?"
"There can be no one else but him."
"Actually, you expected that it was Xiao Ding who changed it. So you're not in a hurry to tell me about dozens of scriptures and show off your knowledge? ”
Fan Sicheng said with a smile: "That's right, Senior Brother Xiao Ding loves to play these tricks the most, we have the most ancient books in the store, every time he wants to borrow them, he exchanges them with a fake book like this." ”
"Why do you want to swap fake ones?"
"......" Fan Sicheng seemed reluctant to say it, looking at Zhu Wei's cold eyes, he said reluctantly: "Because the master doesn't let him see this." When he secretly looked at it, he was afraid that the master would know, so when he came to borrow the books, he took the authentic works back and put them on a vacation in advance, so that if the master came to check these books, he would be able to get away with them. ”
Zhu Wei felt more and more that this little Ding's behavior was a bit mysterious.
"What types of books does he read?"
"Astronomical in the majority."
"What about this one? Isn't it an arithmetic book? ”
"The Five Cao Sutra originally contained some astronomical content, and Tang Li Chunfeng and others have made annotations for it and analyzed some magical phenomena of astronomy, and Senior Brother Xiaoding likes these contents the most."
"For example, what kind of magical phenomenon?"
Fan Sicheng said: "I'll give you an example, on the astronomical phenomenon of the five-star alignment that happened a few days ago, it is recorded above, and a strange warlock like Li Chunfeng has made a lot of astronomical annotations, among which the annotation of the five-star alignment event is an essential part of the book. I feel that Senior Brother Xiaoding wants to study the five-star alignment when he reads this book. ”
Li Chunfeng was an astronomer in the Tang Dynasty, a mathematician, and a scholar of Yi, proficient in astronomy, calendrical calculations, yin and yang, and Taoism, and was one of the authors of "Tui Bei Tu".
Li Chunfeng was the first person in the world to give a rating to the wind. His famous book "Yi Si Zhan" is the earliest monograph in the history of world meteorology. Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang's "Tui Bei Tu" is known for the accuracy of its predictions.
The five-star alignment of such a magical character annotation is actually the focus of Xiao Ding's attention.
Zhu Wei's mind couldn't help but flash a news he watched a few days ago, which mentioned this astronomical phenomenon.
During the drop of this book, a five-star coincidence appeared, what kind of connection is there? Zhu Wei couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
