Chapter 35: The Old Rules
There was nothing to do that day, we all lay down in bed and slept for a while, and woke up early the next morning, I heard someone ring the doorbell, yawned and walked to the door, opened the door, and saw Chen Yun standing outside the door.
Seeing that I only wore heel pants to open the door, Chen Yun's face was cold, and she scolded me and said, you can't talk about morality, so you can change into clean clothes! I said, do you want to come in, the fat man is still sleeping with his bare pants, why don't you come in and enjoy it?
I got used to joking, and Chen Yun didn't bother to pay attention to me, so she said that she would give you five minutes to wake them all up, and then describe to me in detail your experience of going to the grave.
I was blocked early in the morning to talk to the door, I naturally refused, but I understand Chen Yun's character, this time we hid from her to go to the grave and fight, if we don't expose us, we are already kind, I had to agree to come down, close the door and beat gongs and drums, wake people up, let them get dressed.
A few minutes later, we sat on the leather cushions on the sofa with Chen Yun, like the interrogator, Chen Yun asked us a lot of details about the tomb, when she heard that there was a tomb in the tomb, in addition to the coffin of the commander of Shu County, there was also a coffin of another tribal goddess buried underneath, and even couldn't help it, and asked us to take her back to have a look.
In the face of this request, we naturally refused, not to mention that the tomb has collapsed, and we can't get into it at all, just the two thousand-year-old ghosts in the tomb are not something we can deal with, if it's just an ordinary big zongzi, gritting your teeth and fighting together, but for the ghosts and gods, I can't do anything.
And the tomb has been lowered more than once, and even if there is a treasure, it has already been vacated, and we have never found anything too valuable underneath it.
Hearing such an answer, Chen Yun had no choice but to give up, and took out the "wooden wedge" I handed over to her yesterday, played with it in her hand, and said Do you know what this is? I shook my head and said I don't know, I don't know what it means to have so many patterns on it, it looks like words, but I'm just a shallow learner, and I can't understand it at all.
Chen Yun shook her head and said that you are wrong, the symbols, or patterns, on this are not words at all, but there is a lot of incredible information recorded in them, since you have worked hard to get it from it, I can share it with you.
From her words that she took the initiative to share with me the secret of this "wooden wedge", I understood another meaning, it is estimated that Chen Yun came all the way to block us, not just to care about us hiding from her to the grave, there must be an article in it.
Once again, I recalled the conversation I overheard under the old locust tree the day before yesterday, and it turned out that I was not the only one who knew about the tomb that I had accidentally obtained, including the people of the RAND Corporation who had never appeared, who were also eyeing this tomb.
Immediately after that, Chen Yun suddenly appeared again, and was able to jump out at the first time, blocking the three of us, if there is nothing greasy in this, who will believe it?
I looked at Chen Yun quietly, and said that this big tomb, there must be many secrets hidden in it that cannot be found in the tomb, and you have already learned about it, right?
Chen Yun did not respond to me directly, but found a piece of A4 paper, spread it out in front of me, sprinkled some black powder on it, and then grabbed the small "wooden wedge", gently placed it on the A4 paper coated with black powder, and rolled it gently, and soon, a figure appeared on the paper.
In this way, you can see it clearly at a glance, and I didn't expect that what was carved on this wooden wedge was actually a topographic map, but there were still many edges and corners that were not presented, and it seemed that this figure was incomplete.
When I was still stunned, Chen Yun began to speak again, "The pattern on this has a very consistent connection point with the pattern we got in the tomb of the Bow Descendant, and when combined, it should be able to piece together a complete topographic map, and the people of the Rand Corporation should also be looking for it." ”
I couldn't understand this, so I hurriedly asked, "How do the people from the RAND Corporation know this?" Chen Yun said that you should not underestimate these foreign forces, whether they are strong in terms of financial resources or the manpower that can be mobilized, they are not something that ordinary people can imagine, but fortunately, this group of people is not overseas after all, so these people dare not come with great fanfare, so they can only go on in a roundabout way.
I said why, what exactly have they been looking for? Chen Yun looked at me and said This problem, even I don't know for the time being, I only know that there are three hidden forces in the two countries of Bashu now, one is the Rand Company, one is us, and the other should be your grandfather......
I was shocked, and said why did I talk about my grandfather again, and it is not clear whether he is dead or alive now, and how can I judge that he has something to do with these things?
Chen Yun smiled and said, "Didn't you say that before you entered the tomb, you found that a robbery hole had collapsed over there?" How do you think that thief hole came about? If it was really because of the flash flood that the tomb pile there was washed away, then who made the robbery hole below? Being able to make such a complicated robbery hole proves that the person who went to the tomb before you is definitely not simple, than who do you think that person will be? ”
I couldn't speak, every time I had a disagreement with Chen Yun, she was able to defeat me with meticulous logical thinking, as if everything was under her control, which made me feel a certain unrealistic, this woman sitting in front of me, shouldn't she be a ghost?
Speaking of this, Chen Yun stood up with a smile, "Okay, gossip will be put here for the time being, I believe that as long as I keep walking along the line of the Bashu civilization, not only will I be able to get what I want, including you, but I should also be able to find out the whereabouts of your grandfather, this topic does not need to be discussed all the time, you just understand it in your heart, I want to take what you have excavated from the ancient tomb now, go back and study it carefully, maybe I will soon be able to crack the secret of the ancient country of Yelang, and it may involve the problem of going to the tomb at that time, Will continue to come back to you. ”
I said okay, as long as there is money to be made, the fat man and I will accompany you down. Chen Yun's face sank, and said Sima Nan, can you not be so realistic, no matter what is related to interests?
I crossed Erlang's legs and told her that I was just a businessman who did small business, and I couldn't afford to be unprofitable, the old rule, if we want to follow you to the tomb in the future, the treasure that was excavated must let me and the fat man pick one first, you can agree to this condition, and we can always cooperate.
Chen Yun glared at me, and said helplessly, okay, you guys clean up first and drive back to Chongqing with me. As soon as Chen Yun left, Ge Zhuang hurriedly took out the antique jar that he had hidden, stuffed it into a thick backpack, and padded two layers of cotton.
After lunch that day, Lao Zhong returned the rented car, and then got into Chen Yun's jeep and drove us back to Chongqing.
