Chapter 52: Dead Jade Shadows
Uncle Seven has been staying by the phone, and when he saw Zhang Guozhong and Lao Liu Tou entering the house, he hurriedly handed the receiver to Zhang Guozhong.
"Hey..."
"Hey... Mr. Liao? The voice on the other side was full of ruffianism, although it was a little old, but compared to the traitorous energy that Wang Zihao spoke, it could only be said that it was more than that.
"Hello, my surname is Zhang, you can tell me directly... Well... Do you know Young Master Liao? Zhang Guozhong frowned.
"It's not an ordinary recognition, I grew up with a bare ass, but then he washed me off, and I was sad," the other party said.
"I want to ask you... Before he died, did he tell you about the nightmares he had? Zhang Guozhong said.
"Please wait a minute, I'll think about it...", the person on the other side thought for a moment, "Yes! He said he dreamed of a bodhisattva! As soon as the person on the other side said this, Zhang Guozhong suddenly came to his senses, "Hmm! And then what? β
"Alas, the evil man, he told me that he dreamed of the Bodhisattva in his bed, I thought he was laughing, but he was very serious, saying that he dreamed of the Bodhisattva in his bed, gloomy, and scared him awake..."
"Just in bed?" Zhang Guozhong was strange, it was hard to imagine what the Bodhisattva was like in bed.
At this time, the voice on the other side seemed to be a little puzzled, "Hmm... Oh, and there's... He said that the Bodhisattva was a statue, a man of seven silvers... That one swallowed the silver! I thought it was terrifying, so I didn't ask in detail..."
"Bodhisattva? Statue? Cannibalism? Zhang Guozhong was confused, what the hell is this dream? Could it be that Zhao Kuncheng would kill him for such a boring nightmare, and he would not hesitate to sacrifice his ten-year life?
"Consume... Mr. Zi..."Zhang Guozhong didn't know what to call the person opposite, "He didn't say anything else?" β
"No, we were in Sauna at the time, and the later topics were all about the female silver..."
"Thank you, by the way, I haven't asked you what to call ..."Out of politeness, Zhang Guozhong felt that he should be polite.
"My surname is Li, it's okay to call me Li Tong..." After a period of politeness, Zhang Guozhong hung up the phone.
"Senior brother, that mouse, said that Young Master Liao dreamed that the Bodhisattva statue would eat people, what do you think is strange?" Zhang Guozhong lit a cigarette.
"Cannibalism..."Old Liu Tou also fell into deep thought, "In this way, first move the bed away and dig down to see..."
More than a dozen workers, with great effort, moved Master Liao's "sleigh bed" imported from the United States, which was destroyed and the floor was pried open. It turns out that only half of the ancestral house of the Liao family has a basement, and the other half of the area is only about a meter high in the enclosed space to prevent moisture, and there is no basement, and this room of Young Master Liao is exactly where there is no basement.
After nearly a day of smashing, a hole about the size of the previous bed was cut in the floor, and below it was damp foundation soil and load-bearing pillars.
"Keep digging!" Zhang Guozhong went down to the moisture-proof space and dug up with the workers. It wasn't until he dug down more than a meter and further down that it became harder and harder, and it was impossible to hide something, that a worker shouted, "There's something here!" Everyone went up together and found that the worker used a shovel to force down the pier, and then made a "dang" sound.
Zhang Guozhong approached and slowly dug out the floating soil on the upper layer with a shovel, and buried an iron box in the ground.
Opening the iron box, Zhang Guozhong was somewhat disappointed. I saw that the inner wall of this iron box was inlaid with a layer of peach wood, and the gaps in the lid were sealed with rubber, and what was contained inside was not a title deed, but a piece of broken jade. Let's not say it's a guy from the Song Dynasty..."Old Liu Tou said.
"This ......" Old Liu Tou was also stupid, "how could the Liao family bury this thing?" β
"Could it be that this is not the Liao family?" Zhang Guozhong suddenly remembered that the master and himself buried the jade in Li Village, and maybe this piece of jade was also buried by a capable person earlier. According to the worker's experience, a three-story building like the Liao family's ancestral house (each floor is at least four meters high) has at least four meters of foundation, and this kind of soil with a depth of about one meter must be dug up, so it is certain that if the architect who designed the Liao family's ancestral house is not a fool, then this box was buried after the ancestral house was built.
"This is strange..."Looking at the square dead jade in his hand, Zhang Guozhong didn't know why, this was a dead jade that was almost a brick, the two sides seemed to have been polished, but it was not smooth, and there were some patterns in the concave and convex shapes, but it was definitely not the Bodhisattva statue that Liao Siqu had seen in his dream, and he couldn't tell what it looked like if it was messy. Could it be that this is the reason why the young master of the Liao family has nightmares? β
For this piece of dead jade, the seventh uncle is also very strange, especially after listening to Zhang Guozhong's introduction to the use of dead jade in Maoshan technique, he is even more confused, "It shouldn't be..."The seventh uncle looked at this piece of dead jade left and right, "This house was built by my grandfather, and my ancestors have never heard of doing the magic of exorcism... And, according to what you said, even if you have done the Dharma, how can such an inauspicious thing be buried under your own house? β
As soon as these words came out, Zhang Guozhong couldn't figure it out, yes, he buried the dead jade with his master back then, dug a pit more than ten meters deep, and it was in the wilderness far away from the village, no matter how stupid the grandfather of the seventh uncle is, he will not be stupid enough to bury this kind of thing in his own house...
"The corpse next door..."Old Liu Tou suddenly thought, "Isn't he always known as a jade expert... Show it to him..."That's right, isn't Qin Ge, a ready-made ancient jade expert, just next door to recuperate?"
"This piece of jade is a map..."Qin Ge looked at this piece of dead jade for two hours, and suddenly opened his mouth. Zhang Guozhong and Liu Tou were about to fall asleep, and when Qin Ge said this, the two of them were stunned. "What do you mean?" Zhang Guozhong was puzzled.
"It's a map to enter a certain treasure or open a certain mechanism..."Qin Ge couldn't sit up at the moment, he could only hold the dead jade in one hand and lie down and talk.
"Maps?" Zhang Guozhong approached Qin Ge and looked at this strange-shaped dead jade, "This is a map?" β
"Zhang Zhangjiao, you help me up..."Qin Ge grinned and sat up, holding the dead jade with one hand, and reading the jade side with his thumb, "Please bring rice paper and ink clay..."
After a while, the rice paper and the ink clay were brought over by a maid, and Qin Ge used his fingers to coat one side of the dead jade with the ink clay, and printed it on the rice paper at once, a large mess, a little diagonal net, but he couldn't tell what it was. Qin Ge smiled slightly, and smeared the ink on the other side of the jade, overlapping the outline of the seal just now, when the jade was raised, I saw that among the two overlapping imprints, a clear Guanyin statue was vividly displayed in the overlapping imprint of the two imprints on both sides of the dead jade, and in the middle of the Guanyin statue, there was a rough imprint, I don't know if it was Qin Ge's seal when the strength was not used evenly, or if there was something on the jade that represented some special meaning.
"Put the jade down!" When Lao Liu saw the statue of Guanyin, he immediately felt like an electric shock, "There is something in here!" I saw Lao Liu Tou picking up the compass and making do with Yu while talking, but he was strange and didn't react.
"Guozhong, you open your eyes..."Old Liu Tou has always had a headache and opened his eyes.
After opening his eyes, Zhang Guozhong found that this was an ordinary piece of dead jade, as if there was nothing, but there was a little black block in the middle of the jade.
"There's a bit of a black block in the middle..."Zhang Guozhong said, wondering to himself, he had opened his eyes many times before, whether it was yin or yang, all he saw was a foggy piece, what was this black block?
After looking at the compass for a long time, there was no reaction, and Lao Liu Tou didn't know why, "Young Master Liao said that he dreamed of a Bodhisattva eating people, and a Bodhisattva was engraved on this dead jade, indicating that this dead jade had sealed things... But... It doesn't seem to be anything..."Old Liu Tou put away the compass, "It's better to be careful......"
"Seventh Uncle, it seems that you misunderstood Zhao Kun become..."Zhang Guozhong said, "What he wants is not the title deed of your ancestor, until it is very likely, he doesn't know that there is such a thing as a title deed that is also hidden in your ancestral house..."
"You mean, that's what he's for?" Uncle Qi took this piece of rice paper printed with the statue of Guanyin, and was amazed again and again.
"Yes!" Zhang Guozhong said, "Not only for this, but he doesn't seem to want you to know that there is such a thing buried in the house" Zhang Guozhong picked up the dead jade.
At this moment, Uncle Seven was also helpless, thinking that the title deed could be found, but what he found at this moment did not know what it was.
At night, Zhang Guozhong was pondering this so-called map with no beginning and no end, when he suddenly heard a big mess downstairs, followed by a rapid knock on the door.
"Please come in!" Zhang Guozhong put away the map, only to see Ah Guang pushing open the door and sweating, "Mr. Zhang... Oh no, those mercenaries all fainted, and now they are all in the hospital, maybe Zhao Kuncheng is looking for trouble again! β
"What?" Zhang Guozhong was cold, is this Zhao Kuncheng a human being? Although he was also injured at the time, it was a soft injury after all, and he was shot by Qin Ge, but the gunshot wound was so hard, how did it come back so quickly? "Leave that ancestral house alone! What about Mr. Liu? β
"I'm already waiting for you downstairs!" Ah Guang Dao.
Zhang Guozhong packed up the guy and trotted downstairs, only to see that Ah Guang had already parked the car at the door. "Mr. Guang, you don't have to go to the ancestral house today!" Zhang Guozhong pulled out his dagger, "That kid will find the door by himself!" β
At this moment, Lao Liu Tou has also begun to set up a formation at the door, "Kid dare to come?" Grandpa, I sent him to the crematorium today! β
"Do you need me to find somebody?" Ah Guang was sweating profusely.
"No!" Zhang Guozhong took out a handful of incense and lit it, "You go to protect Uncle Seven!" Give me the walkie-talkie! Let us know if there is anything out of the ordinary! Zhang Guozhong knows that Zhao Kuncheng at this moment has put life and death aside, although he doesn't know how important the secret of this Guanyin statue is, but if Zhao Kuncheng finds that what he wants has been taken away, he will definitely not give up.
"Wait!" Lao Liu Tou called back to Ah Guang, "Do you remember the last time I looked for the place where those eight people stood (the place where Lao Liu's head put the golden bell jar last time), and I still found those people standing there!" Let Uncle Seven also sit back in that place that day! β¦β¦ Guozhong, you go up with him, in case he goes straight to the Seventh Master..."
"With this, I don't believe he will find Uncle Seven first!" Zhang Guozhong took out the dead jade from his arms and checked it, "When the time comes, it's a big deal to give him this thing, and everyone's well water will not interfere with river water!" At this moment, Zhang Guozhong's thoughts are still naΓ―ve, he thinks that Zhao Kuncheng will stop when he gets this thing......
