CHAPTER IX

Previous Chapter

Grandpa looked up at the sky and let out a long sigh: "Alas! What should come will come! ”

I wondered, "Grandpa! What? What's wrong? ”

Grandpa didn't speak, just looked at me very dotingly, and said to the second uncle, "You have been at home for a while recently!" ”

The second uncle nodded, and the second uncle and grandpa talked like a big opera, and I was confused, I didn't know what they were doing.

After dinner, I accompanied my grandfather to walk in the yard, I supported my grandfather, I felt that his health in recent years was not as good as before, looking at a little old grandfather I don't feel good.

When I came to the plane tree and sat down, my grandfather asked me, "Mo Chou! Do you know what our house does? ”

"Tomb robbing," I replied.

Grandpa laughed when he heard my answer: "Haha.... Don't be so blunt! You're right, it's a tomb robber, in this business, there will be no good death, my biggest wish is to leave a whole corpse after death! ”

I heard my grandfather say this, and I didn't know how to answer for a while, but my grandfather didn't pay attention to me, and just said to himself: "Demons are aggressive and difficult to deal with!" Ink sorrow! Do you know what's inside Xiangyun Temple? ”

I shook my head, and my grandfather said: "Xiangyun Temple is used by their Ma family to suppress demons, and there are seven demons in it, and six have been eliminated in the past few hundred years, leaving only the last one under the Buddha statue in the Daxiong Treasure Hall, and this one is also the most powerful, we have tried countless methods in the past few decades to no avail, alas! Time is running out! ”

After saying that, my grandfather looked at the night sky, and I asked my grandfather: "Is it true that the second uncle told me that someone wants to harm me?" ”

Grandpa nodded: "Yes!" You have to be careful when you go out in the future, but you are out of our circle, and you may be better in the future! ”

I asked again, "Grandpa, who is that?" ”

Grandpa sneered and said, "Hehe.... I know who it is, but I can't tell you right now, Mochou! You remember that the closer you get to the truth, the more and more blood you will see, and it is better to know later! ”

Grandpa and I chatted for a long time under the plane tree in the yard, and he also told me a lot of stories, but they had nothing to do with this matter, so it was inconvenient for me to make more records, and then grandpa went back to the house at the urging of the second uncle.

I followed, and my grandfather shouted outside the door: "Mr. Zhuge ! ”

"Hey! Here it comes! As soon as the words fell, I saw a person dressed in a Tang costume and a fan with his hands, walking in leisurely, thin, with a pair of sunglasses, like a blind fortune teller, always giving people a sense of unfathomable.

I was surprised: "I rely on Zhuge Liang? ”

But then I didn't think so, I saw him come to his grandfather, his face changed as soon as he saw him, he was like a traitor's expression when he saw Taijun, he fanned his grandfather and asked, "Hehe.... Old gentleman....... What's the matter? ”

With this face of profiteers, I really want to kick him hard.

Grandpa said, "Zhuge ah! This is my grandson, you have also seen it, I will not introduce it, he is responsible for the antique shop in Nancheng, you will follow him to help from tomorrow! ”

"Yes!" After listening to what his grandfather said, Zhuge walked towards me and clasped his fists with both hands: "Little boy! In the lower Zhuge ! ”

I asked, "Are you surnamed Zhuge ?" ”

He shook his head: "No! Under the surname Zhu, called Zhu Ge"

When I was sweating down, my heart said, "Holy! Is there such a title? I thought it was Zhuge Liang's Zhuge Liang? ”

I smiled awkwardly at him, and then stopped looking at him.

The second uncle also spoke at this time: "Huzi! Come on in! ”

At this time, another one came in from outside the door, but this one is much more scary than Zhuge , with a horizontal face, it seeps into people, and there is a long scar on his face, and he looks a little bit outside when he walks, in short, he doesn't give me the impression that he is not a good person!

He came to his grandfather: "Master! Second master! ”

Grandpa and the second uncle nodded, and the second uncle said, "Have you remembered everything I brought you today?" ”

Huzi replied: "Master! Second master! You can rest assured that I will do things! ”

Listening to Huzi's answer, Grandpa nodded, and then Huzi came over to me just like me and said, "Little Second Master!" ”

I nodded and said to him, "The little second master is not good!" Just call me by name! ”

Huzi was surprised and said, "No, no! How can this work? That's it! I'll call you the same as them, little master! ”

I don't want to refute it anymore when I hear his firm tone, let him go! After all, the arrangement of the second uncle and grandfather, he can't help himself, and he will definitely change it for him when he has the opportunity in the future!

After chatting with my grandfather and second uncle for a while, I was so sleepy that I went back to my room to sleep.

A few days later, my grandfather officially announced, I am the successor of which antique shop on Nancheng Street, in fact, this antique shop is very big, three floors, the main entrance is placed in some porcelain, and then go inside is the calligraphy and painting hanging on the wall, and finally a double-fan screen, behind the screen is the table where I usually rest and drink tea, to the second floor is a precious antique, such as jade carving, bronze and other things, but these things are not very good to sell, after all, only a few people recognize this kind of thing, On the third floor, I heard my grandfather say that the things on it are terrible, not for sale, only people in the industry can, and someone must introduce them, I haven't been there since it opened, it's full of dust, and I'm not very interested in the things above.

It's been more than a year since it opened in a blink of an eye, because of the care of my grandfather, the business of this antique shop is very good, but basically I don't have anything, it's Zhuge who is busy greeting guests, and the physical work of moving things has a tiger, I just sit and wait to collect money every day, and then out of forbearance, I gave them a salary increase, which doubled on the basis of grandpa, but they were not very happy, nor did they refuse, day by day, every day is thriving, I thought that this kind of life would continue to say that I died, But God doesn't fulfill people's wishes, and the thief always gives you a slap in the face when you are hopeful for the future.

If you are lucky enough to see my notes, you must keep your eyes open at this time, for my adventure has begun.

Sure enough, the outside world is like what my grandfather said, full of blood, when I opened for almost two years, I found that the business of antique shops is getting bleaker and bleaker, sometimes it is not open, I didn't think much about it at first, but I just thought about doing business, there is always an off-peak season, but after a long time, it is difficult for me not to think too much, one day ..... Two days ..... Three days...... A week.... It has not been opened.

I panicked, thinking about whether to go to my grandfather's place, to be honest, since I was rescued last time, I seem to have lost contact with my grandfather's second uncle, including my parents! There was no news, which made me want to see what was going on.

I explained to the two of them, and drove my broken Santana to the road to my grandfather's house, I was surprisingly calm along the way, I enjoyed my achievements in the past two years, although I had grandpa's help, but I still liked the feeling of being my own boss, I hummed a little song all the way, and drove leisurely.

Finally stopped in the courtyard I was familiar with, I got out of the car to knock on the door, it took a long time for Uncle Liu to come out, and when he saw that it was me, his brows furrowed slightly, but it was only for a moment, and these were all in my eyes.

Uncle Liu pushed open the door and said, "Second Young Master! Here it comes? ”

It sounded heavy, and I felt like he hadn't slept in a long time, so I asked, "What's wrong?" Uncle Liu! ”

He shook his head and invited me in, and when I entered, I saw my grandfather sitting on the Taishi chair, smoking a cigarette, I walked over in a few steps, and my grandfather saw that it was me, and he frowned slightly, put down the cigarette and said, "It's here!" ”

Grandpa's voice is also very vicissitudes, and I don't know why I always have a bad premonition.

"Hmmm! What's wrong with you, grandpa! I asked.

Grandpa shook his head and said, "It's okay! Old! It's useless! ”

I asked again, "What about the second uncle?" ”

Grandpa didn't answer me, just said something that made me inexplicably strange: "It's late!" You're late! ”

This sentence made my second monk confused, so I asked my grandfather: "This! What is the meaning? ”

Grandpa first looked at me, and then asked me, "You are mentally prepared!" ”

I nodded.

Grandpa said: "Last month, your uncle's third uncle and fourth uncle and your father went to Shanxi to go to the ground, and when they met Leizi, they were all arrested and sentenced to 10 years!" ”

As soon as I heard the "buzzing" of my head, it exploded, and I almost didn't scream: "What's the matter, uncle, they're all very shrewd people?" ”

I hurriedly asked my grandfather, "What about the second uncle and the sixth uncle?" ”

Grandpa shook his head: "Alas! Missing? disappeared the day after the accident, life and death are unknown, you go back quickly! It's not safe here! ”

My mind went blank for a moment, oh my God! How could this happen? What the fuck is going on! So many people were gone all at once, and I was sweating out.

Grandpa saw me here and patted me: "You kid is still stunned, don't leave yet!" I'll figure out what's going on in a moment! ”

How can I be in the mood to think about anything else now, I have always been in the matter of my uncle and their disappearance, and I can't imagine that I will have today?

I asked my grandfather, "What the hell is going on?" ”

Grandpa just said a few words: "They did it!" ”

Did they do it? Who are they? Who else is there to live with our family, oh my God!

I looked at my grandfather again, no wonder he was so old, thanks to my grandfather's good physique, I guess I would have returned to the West for an ordinary old man.

Grandpa suddenly got up, as if thinking of something, and said to me, "Come with me!" Hurry up and run out of time! ”

Although I didn't understand what my grandfather said, I also went with him, walked into the lobby, we went straight to a small house in the west, and when I opened the curtain, I saw that it was full of tablets, all of which were the ancestral tablets of our Mo family, and my grandfather asked me to kneel, and I did them all, and then my grandfather and I kowtowed nine heads to the ancestral tablet, stood up, and grandpa took out a book on the ancestral tablet, and a volume of music that I don't know what it was.

My grandfather said to me, "This is what our ancestors left behind!" The Mo family's inverted fighting technique, and this is a family tree, you can do without anything, and your ancestors can't lose it! In the future, it will be offered in your home, and remember to incense on the fifteenth day of the new year! ”

I nodded and slipped into the inside pocket of my clothes, but the genealogy was too big to hold in my hands, and I kowtowed a few more times to the tablet before my grandfather and I left the room.

As soon as I left the room, I heard the door open, and I hurried out to look, good fellow! There must be more than a dozen people, and I still know a few of them, all of whom are former buddies of the second uncle, but seeing that the posture is not good, I hurriedly looked for a guy, but was stopped by my grandfather.

At this time, the group of people was already face to face, and Uncle Liu scolded beside him: "You group of people who kill a thousand knives, ungrateful things, the old lady used to be kind to you, what do you want to do?" ”

A man with a treacherous face said to Uncle Liu, "Hehe....... Don't say it, your Mo family's dog is quite loyal, but Lao Tzu doesn't have time to pity you, come on! Pick the valuable ones! Move! ”

I hurriedly stopped, "What are you doing! Yes! Want to grab it? ”

But they didn't pay attention to what I said! Rush straight into the house and start moving things!

At this time, the treacherous man had already pointed the finger at me: "Hehe..... Who am I? The second young master of the Mo family! Disrespectful, disrespectful! But you're about to become a lost dog, and now I can let you go, but for a while..... It's hard to say! ”

I was in a hurry: "Let go of your mother's fart, Lao Tzu will kill you!" ”

When he heard me say this, he raised his hand to hit me, but then his wrist was grabbed, and I saw that it was Erkui, the partner of the original second uncle, and he grabbed the hand of the treacherous minister and said, "Boss! We're here to move things, don't hit anyone! ”

Seeing him say this, he flicked his sleeves and left, and then Erkui turned to me and grandpa and said, "Old lady! Second young master! Don't blame me, since the second master disappeared, the brothers on the road have all fallen one-sidedly, and we can't help ourselves! As he spoke, he knelt down and kowtowed to his grandfather.

Seeing this, Grandpa laughed: "Haha! Good! It's a man! I don't blame you, let's go! ”

Erkui reluctantly left, and also went to move things, I wanted to stop being stopped by grandpa, who took me to the yard to watch them move things, and said loudly from time to time: "Hey! There is also a Ming Dynasty bracelet in that house, and a porcelain vase from the Qing Dynasty in that house! ”

I didn't know what to do when I saw this, my grandfather had already let go, and my grandfather sat on the Taishi's chair and smoked, and said to me, "Do you see it clearly now?" No one will always be on your side, only you will continue to grow stronger, and the book I gave you will go back and take a closer look! You're safe there, no one dares to go to your place to make trouble, boy, you show me clearly, today's situation, don't let it happen to you in the future."

My mind was confused, and I didn't know what to say, so I had to watch blankly, and after a while, the Taishi chair where my grandfather was sitting was also moved, and the person looked at the family tree in my hand again, but was stopped by Erkui.

The contents of the house have been completely moved, and only four walls remain.
