Chapter 37: The Legend of the Red Rabbit Jade Horse

Chen Chao was very puzzled after hearing this, and said: "Since the thief left a book clearly stating that he was stealing the jade seal, in fact, he stole it along with the red rabbit jade horse...... Could it be that stealing the jade horse was just a matter of taking the sheep by the hand and making a temporary move? ”

In fact, An Pingyuan couldn't figure out this question thoroughly, and besides, the thief had already jumped off the cliff and died, and there was no way to figure out her true intentions.

Lord Rong said, "I don't think I need to consider the question of what the thief's intentions are for the time being. This red rabbit jade horse was originally owned by Prince Su, and now it was stolen in the palace hall, the queen mother was quite concerned about this matter, and ordered the criminal department yamen to solve the case as soon as possible, and Zhang Bang offered a reward of 2,000 oceans to recover the stolen jade horse. ”

Lord Rong said as he handed over a copy of the list to An Pingyuan, and said, "I think it is safest for you and Mr. Chen to be responsible for this case, and this is also the will of the Queen Mother." ”

After saying that, Lord Rong showed another secret decree.

Chen Chao is in urgent need of positive energy now, and he is naturally willing to accept the order. Besides, this is the will of the Queen Mother, and An Pingyuan has no reason to refuse.

"Okay, Lord Rong, I took this list with Brother Chen. However, it is not difficult to find this red rabbit jade horse, it is an antique, and Brother Chen and I don't know anything about it......"

Before An Pingyuan's words were finished, Lord Rong waved his hand and said, "Pingyuan, I have already helped you solve this problem." I recommend to you a man, this is my prayer post, take it to this man's house, and he will answer your questions. ”

Chen Chao took the post, glanced at the name on it, and asked curiously: "Lord Rong, who is this Qian Muyong?" ”

Master Rong said: "Qian Muyong is my old friend, who has studied in Wuge all the year round, and is the leading master in the antique industry, even if he has a good reputation in the world, you are right to find him if you want to understand the problem of the Red Rabbit Jade Horse." ”

Chen Chao and An Pingyuan glanced at each other, then bid farewell to Lord Rong, and left the yamen of the Criminal Department with the prayer post.

……

Next.

Chen Chao and An Pingyuan prepared gifts and went to Qian Muyong's house with a greeting post.

After receiving the post, Qian Muyong soon took the housekeeper out to greet him in person.

Chen Chao looked at Qian Muyong, this old guy looked very happy, with a round face, wearing a very fashionable pair of round-rimmed glasses, very similar to the famous actor who played He Shen in a costume drama. The suit and leather shoes are quite modern in style, and it is clear that this old guy is also a person who admires Western culture, at least in terms of clothing taste.

"Since the two of you are friends of Lord Rong, then they are my friends of Qian someone, please inside." Qian Muyong spoke very politely, and his smile was also very kind, and he led the two into the guest room to sit down with a smile, and ordered someone to serve good tea.

"I don't know what the two of you are looking for money today, what is the so-called matter?" Qian Muyong asked straight to the point.

"That's right," An Pingyuan organized his language and said, "We were ordered to track down a stolen red rabbit jade horse, and I heard from Lord Rong that Mr. Qian has a deep understanding of antiques, so I recommend the two of us to learn from you about the specific situation of this horse." ”

"Yes, no problem." Qian Muyong nodded again and again, and then asked: "What kind of red rabbit jade horse do you are talking about, if you can, describe it to Qian......

Chen Chao stretched out his arm and gestured at the size of the jade horse, and said to Qian Muyong: "This jade horse is about this big, the whole body is purple and red, and only the four hooves are like snow. ”

Qian Muyong suddenly frowned, thought about it for a while, and immediately said, "The jade horse you are talking about should be from the Zhao Kingdom hundreds of years ago. It is rumored that King Zhao Wuying hunted in the mountains, chased a divine deer into the valley by mistake, saw that the mountain stone had a breath of mist, ordered someone to chisel the mountain stone, get a jade horse, a female and a male. ”

"What? There are two of these jade horses? Chen Chao asked a little surprised.

Qian Muyong nodded and said, "The jade horse you are looking for must be one of them." ”

An Pingyuan then asked: "Then Mr. Qian has any news about this red rabbit jade horse?" With your influence in the antiques world, it shouldn't be difficult to inquire about the whereabouts of an antique. ”

"Well, well, it's not hard. That's it," Qian Muyong pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose and said, "Please go back first, give someone Qian two days, and within two days, someone Qian will give you an answer." What do you think? ”

An Pingyuan: "Okay, let's not bother Mr. Qian, farewell." ”

When he got out of Qian Muyong's house, Chen Chao immediately asked, "Brother An, is this Qian Muyong reliable?" Can he really find the whereabouts of the Red Rabbit Jade Horse? ”

An Pingyuan shrugged his shoulders helplessly and said, "This is also a way to do it. The female thief who stole the jade horse jumped off the cliff and committed suicide, and the whereabouts of the jade horse were also unknown. However, the thief steals antiques in order to sell the stolen goods for money, the female thief must have a commander behind her, it is very likely that the jade horse has been in the hands of the people behind the scenes, as long as the jade horse surfaces and appears on the black market, it will not escape Mr. Qian's 'eyes'. However, if even Mr. Qian can't find out the whereabouts of Yuma, then it's even more impossible for us......"

Chen Chao also felt powerless, and for the first time he had a feeling of not being able to start.

"Do you feel like you don't know where to start?" An Pingyuan seemed to guess Chen Chao's thoughts, and said, "It's normal for you to feel this way. Our bounty hunters are mainly on an errand to find people, and this time it's a search. Compared with capturing a living person, it is undoubtedly much more difficult to find a dead object. Actually, if it weren't for the Queen Mother's secret decree, I really don't want to take this list......"

Chen Chao suddenly understood, the four words "bounty hunter", as the name suggests, are looking for people, and finding things is obviously a professional mismatch, which is a bit difficult for a strong person, just like a dog taking a mouse, although a dog can also get a mouse, but it obviously takes a lot of effort.

An Pingyuan patted Chen Chao on the shoulder and said, "Okay, the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, let's wait for two days with peace of mind." ”

……

Two days passed quickly, and Chen Chao and An Pingyuan visited the door again and asked Qian Muyong about the news of Chitu Yuma.

Qian Muyong said: "You two, I'm very embarrassed. In the past two days, I have used all my connections, and I have not heard any news about Yuma......"

Chen Chao and An Pingyuan glanced at each other, and the two of them immediately pulled out the cold in their hearts, this list is obviously going to be yellow, and they don't know how to deal with Lord Rong, the list of two thousand oceans is really not so easy to complete.

But Qian Muyong suddenly changed his words and said, "However, I did hear another piece of news, which may be helpful to you." ”

As soon as Chen Chao heard that there was a door, his eyes immediately lit up, and he asked: "What is the good news about Mr. Qian, please come and hear it." ”

An Pingyuan also had an expectant expression.

Qian Muyong continued: "Although there is indeed no news of the Red Rabbit Jade Horse on the black market, in Baisha Town, Guangxian County, someone has seen such a jade horse......
