The man who came to me was a shriveled old man, dressed in a coat from the nineties, who at first glance looked to be sixty or seventy years old, with his entire eyebrows curled down, and a small goatee.

The old man saw me come out, showed a very uncomfortable smile, a pair of small eyes narrowed into a slit, the whole face shrunk together, smiled at me, and said in a pure Beijing accent: "Little master of the Jiang family, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

Although I hadn't seen him for five or six years, I still recognized at a glance who this old man was, Chen Baiyan.

Of course, this is not his real name, and as for what his real name is, it is estimated that no one knows it except himself. As for calling him Chen Baiyan, it is because of this person's vision and his domineering, if you give him a glance at something, you can immediately see eight points, and this person is also proficient in various ancient languages, especially the silk books of the Warring States Period.

Back then, he followed my grandfather to do the craft for a few years, and I still had to call him Ah Gong, but then I heard that I went to Beijing, and I rarely saw him again.

Grandpa once told me that this person is ruthless and resolute, and he will definitely be able to become a hero in the future, but this person's scheming city is even ashamed of himself, so it is better not to offend.

I was stunned for a moment and immediately reacted, and hurriedly greeted him, "Oh, it's Chen, Gong, why do you have time to come to me." ”

As soon as I approached him, I smelled a faint smell of earth, and I lowered my voice and said, "You have just come out of the ground." ”

The old man smiled and said, "Sure enough, your grandfather didn't teach you in vain, I came to you to help me look at something." ”

After speaking, he walked straight to my inner room, I hurriedly beckoned the man to make two cups of tea and brought them in, I handed the old man a cup, the old man picked up the bowl and sniffed it and smiled and said, "Before the rain." He glanced at me.

My heart shuddered, the old man's eyes just now looked as if he had seen me inadvertently, but I could feel that it was a warning, or rather a coercion.

"We're also old acquaintances, so we won't spare it, I don't know if you've seen this." As he spoke, he took out something from his pocket, I turned my head to look, and suddenly my expression was stiff, what the old man was holding in his hand turned out to be a double fish talisman, which was very similar to what I brought out from the tomb of King Shu.

The old man had been staring at me since he took out his things, and I knew that he must have seen my expression, and suddenly a chill appeared in his eyes, and he lowered his voice and said, "The person who walked in front of us, is it you?" ”

I hurriedly took a sip of tea to hide my nervousness, and asked him as if I didn't understand, "Huh?" What the people in front. ”

The old man suddenly sneered: "Hmph, don't play with me, do you think I don't know about those things you do in private?" ”

"What's private? Why can't I understand? ”

"Of course, it's about your second uncle."

"My second uncle?" I suddenly chuckled in my heart, as if the old man really knew something.

In fact, I have done all this very secretly, since Heizhugou came back, I found that the second uncle has become very mysterious, and began to collect clues about the second uncle everywhere, but I didn't expect to be known by this old man.

I tried my best to refute it, but as soon as I saw the old man's cold gaze, I couldn't help but say, "So, what are you going to do?" ”

"Did you get the other half?"

"That's right, the other half is indeed with me."

The old man's eyes eased and said to me: "I do know some about your second uncle, I can tell you this, but ......."

As soon as I heard that this old man actually knew about the second uncle, I immediately asked, "But what?" ”

"You'll have to come with me, though."

"Where are you going?"

"Changbai Mountain."

"Huh?" I was suddenly stunned, wondering if this old man had a problem with his brain, and even asked me to go to Changbai Mountain with him, it couldn't be that my brain was smashed in the tomb.

So I asked: "Ah Gong Chen, what is the ..... going to Changbai Mountain?"

The old man took another sip of the bowl, smacked the tea leaves in his mouth a few times, and said, "Old man, I want to clip the lama once." ”

As soon as I heard it, I immediately understood that this old guy was still doing what he did when he was younger. couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "Ah Gong, what kind of body do you have, isn't it safe to run your own shop in Beijing, don't do this business on the ground." The old man sighed and said, "Hey, there's no way, I've been doing it all my life, you don't have to worry about me, I can hold on for a few years, how about it, do you go or not?" ”

At this time, I muttered in my heart, for me, this is an excellent opportunity, this old guy has been on the road for decades, and he must know a lot of secrets that I don't know, but when I think of myself, I am also the intern Tufuzi who has been fighting again, and I can't do anything if I go, and I was in the bucket last time thanks to Shunzi's care.

I didn't know how to answer for a while, so I said with a hesitant expression: "Ah Gong, I have to discuss this matter with my second uncle, or you will wait for two days." ”

The old man sneered and said, "Hmph, your second uncle has been missing for more than ten days, and I can't afford to wait, old man." ”

The old man saw that I was embarrassed, and said to me, "Otherwise, you can give me the talisman in your hand, and the price will definitely not be low." ”

As soon as the old man took out the talisman, I knew that this time he was coming for the half in my hand. There is nothing special about this rune itself, but there is a lot of strange information recorded in the pattern on it, and I tried to translate it myself at home, and I can basically understand it.

"This ....." I looked at the old man with a sad face, thinking to myself that even if I didn't know what this talisman was for, but I knew the information on it, and you just wanted to take it like this, I wouldn't give it to you.

"Plus nine corpses."

"Huh? Nine-headed corpse jade. ”

"That's right, it's the nine-headed corpse jade."

I thought to myself how many nine-headed corpse jade there are in this world, the calligraphy and painting we saw in the tomb said that the nine-headed corpse jade was in the hands of my second uncle, how could there be an extra piece at this time.

The old man didn't look at me either, and continued to say to himself: "The secrets in the tomb of the ancient Shu king are all in the place where we are going, and when you get there, maybe you will be grateful to me, an old man." ”

"Ah Gong, you are an empty glove, you are also an old man, you should know the rules of this road better than me."

The old man saw that I had already compromised a little, and said with a smile: "I'll just say one thing, after you hear about it, you have to beg to follow me." ”

I raised my eyebrows and asked the old man, "What's the matter?" ”
