Chapter I
If you want to say where is the most famous antique street in Beijing, it must be Beijing Panjiayuan, and the most famous in Panjiayuan is not Xu Yuanyang's antique shop, people on this road, everyone knows that Xu Yuanyang is beautiful, every year there are a lot of people who come to see Xu Yuanyang's face, that elegant white cheongsam, outlining Xu Yuanyang's young and perfect figure, she holds a simple bun, with some delicate makeup, setting off her already beautiful face is more beautiful. Lying on the rocking chair, cocking Erlang's legs, the white thighs looming, and the fan in his hand swayed one by one.
"Miss, there's a guest outside." It was an old man in his sixties who spoke, "I want to see you by name." ”
"Oh? Tell them I'm not there, just take them around the store, uncle. Xu Yuanyang, who was lying under the eaves of the courtyard at the back door of the antique shop and basking in the sun, did not take these two people to heart, but only regarded them as people who came to see their appearance in the name of visiting antiques on weekdays.
"This ...... Not very well," said the old man, grimacing, "They said they were from those two families. ”
"Those two?" Xu Yuanyang sat up from the recliner, his heartbeat accelerated a little, "Is it finally here?" Go, sir, take me to them. ”
"Yes, miss." After that, the old man helped Xu Yuanyang up from the recliner.
The two families in the old man's mouth, in fact, those who have done the inverted bucket know that there are two major inverted families in the inverted fighting world, the famous Xia family and the Wen family, these two families, the ancestors of several generations have relied on the inverted bucket for a living, the development of the family business, in the past that tomb robbery prosperous dynasty, the ancestors of the two families, had been given the word "Jiangnan double thieves" by the emperor together. From the age of eighty to just walking, everyone has some little skills to a greater or lesser extent, but it has been passed on to the generation of Xia Yuan and Wen Lan, as if something is faintly missing.
"Xiao Muan, do you say we're just waiting? Will this Xu Mandarin Duck really come to see us? Xia Yuan sat on the rattan chair in front of the antique shelf, took a sip of tea, pulled his neckline, and looked around the store.
"Let you wait, you wait! What are you yelling about? Wen Mu smashed a fist into Xia Yuan's chest, although it was a smash, but its strength was indeed similar to tickling, "Grandpa said that Senior Xu will definitely come to see us." ”
"Yo, how did the little girl know that I would definitely come out?" Xu Yuanyang let go of the old man's hand, walked straight to Xia Yuan's face, and sat down, "My store can't compare to other stores, if it's too hot, please go back." ”
"Where is Senior Xu, how can it be too hot, Grandpa said, if you have difficulties, you can ask Senior Xu for help."
"Let's talk about it first, I won't help you." Xu Yuanyang said.
"Grandpa said you still owe him a favor."
"Hahaha, Wen Shihua, this really looks like his style." Xu Yuanyang wiped the tears that flowed out of the corners of his eyes, "Little girl, you are young, you have learned to threaten, it's not that Wen Shihua's granddaughter hahaha." Anyway, what do you want me to help with? ”
"Senior, what's wrong with your eyes?" Xia Yuan, who had not spoken for a long time on the side, felt that Xu Yuanyang was a little familiar at that moment, as if he had seen her somewhere, but he couldn't remember when he had seen her.
"Eyes? When people are old, they like to shed tears, and they are almost blind. Xu Yuanyang smiled and shook the folding fan in his hand, and didn't want to explain more.
"But Senior Xu is still very young." Wen murmured.
"Hahaha, there are some things, you will know later, okay, if you have anything to say, hurry up."
"Ah, that's right." Wen Mu took out a notebook from his bag and said to Xu Yuanyang, "The Tufuzi in the Changsha area reported that there was a tomb suspected to be the royal family of the Xia Dynasty in a small village east of the Xiangjiang River. Grandpa asked Xia Yuan and I to go over there to take a look, and said it was the first trial in adulthood. ”
"Oh? Let me guess, and then Wen Shihua was afraid that the two of you were in danger, so he ordered you to come to me? ”
"Yes." Wen muttered, "Obviously, the two of us can do it, but grandpa underestimates us too much." ”
"Little doll, it's not as simple as playing under the tomb, and your grandfather is worried about you." After all, it's the royal mausoleum I've been to in the past. It's just that Xu Yuanyang didn't say the latter sentence, "I'm afraid that I am also strong and the rest is insufficient, you look at my eyes, I'm afraid I can't help you anything, uncle, give the juniors two sets of my props back then, and then give them some detection equipment, send them off." Xu Yuanyang said that, and walked to the courtyard behind the house.
"Two guests, please come here." The old man handed a large bag to Xia Yuan's hand and hurried the two of them to the gate.
Xia Yuan and Wen Mu turned back frequently, as if they still had nothing to say, so they could only stop there.
After the two returned to the Xia family's old house in Beijing, Xia Yuan angrily threw the big bag on the ground, and the whole person fell into the sofa, saying: "This Xu Mandarin Duck, she doesn't look much older than us, what to pretend, if it weren't for the face of the old man at home, I would definitely teach her to be a man with one punch." ”
"Alright, forget it." Wen Mu stood behind Xia Yuan, pinched Xia Yuan's shoulder, and comforted, "Seniors also have their own difficulties, grandpa asked us to come to her, which has already shown that she must be able to take care of some things that we can't take care of, and the person who can make grandpa full of praise, how bad can she be?" ”
"Well, Xiao Mu, go and see what is in the bag, it has sunk into this virtue."
Wen Mu opened the big bag: "This ......" only found that there were only two Luoyang shovels and a feng shui compass inside.
"Damn, I thought she'd give us something good, and it ended up with such a broken shovel and a broken compass?" After Xia Yuan walked over and saw the small bag in the big bag, he smashed his fist on the sofa, pulled the collar, and slammed the door. At this time, Wen Mu could only smile helplessly, and no longer explained anything to Xu Yuanyang.
The next day, Xia Yuan wanted to throw these Luoyang shovels and compasses in Beijing, but they were still consigned back to Shanghai under Wen Mu's kind words.
"You lost it like this, how can we prove to our grandfather that we went to find Senior Xu when we went back to Shanghai?" Wen Mu grabbed Xia Yuan's hand that tried to throw the big bag into the trash, "What if, what if these things are of other use?" Grandpa must know something. ”
Xia Yuan thought about it again and again, although sometimes his temper was a little willful, but Wen Mu's words always made sense, at least...... Wen Mu has never let herself suffer.
"Let's go, go home." Xia Yuan took Wen Mu's hand and held his hand.
And at this moment, Xu Yuanyang's antique shop:
"Miss, Miss, where are you going?" The old man grabbed Xu Yuanyang, who was about to go out.
"Go to the Imperial Tomb."
"Imperial Tomb? It's so dangerous there, and you don't have good eyes, young lady, let the old man go with you. ”
"It's fine. I just don't worry about the two of them, they are young, and it is always too risky to go to that tomb, after all, they are no longer them," Xu Yuanyang excused himself, "Uncle, you can help me take care of the store." ”
"......"
"Nothing."
Looking at the back of Xu Yuanyang who had disappeared until he disappeared, the old man sighed helplessly: "It's been so many years, and I haven't let it go yet." ”
