I thought about it for a while and connected the phone, and soon a strange voice came from the phone, very sharp and fast. [No pop-ups. 】

"Excuse me, is it Luo Changtian's editor of Haicheng Strange Talk?"

I was slightly stunned for a moment, and replied, "Yes, I'm Luo Changtian." ”

"Hello, Editor Luo, I'm Dalimaru, I don't know if you have read the manuscript I submitted, and whether it can be published in the next issue of the magazine."

Dalimaru is the author who wrote the story of the white-haired fox.

I really didn't expect him to call me, how did he have my phone.

I replied: "Dalimaru, here's the thing, I personally like your work, but if you want to publish it, you still need to be reviewed by Editor-in-Chief Zhou personally, and her requirements are relatively high, so your manuscript is still in the review stage for the time being." ”

There was silence on the phone for a while, and there was a somewhat complaining muttering voice from Dalimaru: "She's always like this, and she thinks she's sorry." ”

Hey, how do you listen to the tone of the pill, it seems that I know Zhou Xueqin.

I asked, "Strongmaru, I didn't hear what you just said. ”

Dalimaru said in a sharp voice again: "It's nothing, Editor Luo, please help me urge Editor-in-Chief Zhou, but give me an answer as soon as possible, if she doesn't accept it, I'll go somewhere else." ”

I promised to give him an answer as soon as possible, and Rappel hung up.

In fact, it has only been 3 days since he submitted the article, and our next issue of the magazine will not be released until 20 days later, so there is time to discuss it slowly.

I walked out of the room slowly, Zhou Xueqin and they had been waiting for a long time, and as soon as I got in the car, she stepped on the accelerator.

The scenery outside the window kept flying, and seeing that there were still more than 40 kilometers away from the destination, I simply asked: "Sister Xue, do you think the manuscript of the white-haired fox and Yang Fulu that I showed you before can be published." ”

Zhou Xueqin slammed the direction and sneered: "The storyline is improvised, the writing is immature, let me tell you, if it weren't for the pen name being such a vulgar name as Mighty Pill, I almost thought it was written by my younger brother Zhou Jun, and the style of writing is very similar." ”

Zhou Jun?

No, I immediately thought of the powerful pill who deliberately changed his tone just now, especially since he seemed to be complaining a little just now, could it really be Zhou Jun.

I said, "Sister Xue, what is Zhou Jun's pen name?" ”

"He's literary, what kind of hibiscus reflects the moon, willows fluttering, December flowers, and the feminine atmosphere is very heavy."

No wonder Zhou Xueqin didn't think of Zhou Jun this time, she never thought that Zhou Jun would use such a rigid pen name, but this time I was afraid that it would still be more than lucky, and Zhou Xueqin was obviously not satisfied.

An hour later, Zhou Xueqin parked her car in the underground parking garage of Phoenix Cultural Plaza, and we walked through the underground passage to the surface, and soon saw the sign of Guowei Antique Store.

The store is very large, and there are quite a few people coming in and out.

The store is full of all kinds of antiques, from the Qin Dynasty to the Republic of China, and I am really dazzled by it.

Dongfang Ming praised while looking at it: "Good guy, all of them are genuine, the owner of this store is not simple." ”

I didn't know anything about antiques, and asked, "Master of the East, how do you see that?" ”

Dongfang Ming smiled and said: "Little brother, I am not as good as you when catching ghosts and driving away evil spirits, but this antique calligraphy and painting is a stunt of our Dragon and Tiger Mountain, I say seriously, this is absolutely true." ”

It's Longhu Mountain's stunt again, I really want to know, what is there that Longhu Mountain won't.

"This master really has eyesight, the antiques in the small shop are absolutely genuine, and a penalty of ten for a fake one, do you have anything to like, see that you know the goods so well, I will give you a twenty-percent discount."

The man who spoke was a man in his sixties, in good spirits, but with a little less hair and a pair of black-rimmed glasses, he looked quite kind.

I said, "You're the boss here?" ”

"Yes, my surname is Dong, and I am the boss here."

There are still a lot of people around to see antiques, and it is not a suitable place to talk, so I simply said: "Boss Dong, I am friends with Du Lan, the boss of Dongmen Hot Spring Villa, and she asked me to come to you, is there a quieter place." ”

When Boss Dong heard Du Lan's name, his eyes lit up obviously, and he hurriedly said, "It turned out to be Mr. Du's friend, so let's go to my office and talk." ”

Our group followed behind Boss Dong and came to his office through two aisles, and there was a landscape painting hanging at the door, although I didn't know how to appreciate it, but it should be quite valuable.

Boss Dong motioned for us to sit down and talk, and said, "Since you are friends of Mr. Du, if you have anything you want, just say it, the price will definitely satisfy you." ”

I glanced at Dongfang Ming and motioned for this old guy to speak, he knows more than me, and he should be able to ask for any clues.

Dongfang Ming pretended to laugh twice, and said: "Boss Dong, then let's open the skylight and say something, you are a little unkind, Mr. Du has a lot of opinions about you." ”

Boss Dong looked at Dongfang Ming in surprise and said, "What do you mean, what am I doing that is not kind, did Mr. Du let you come, please make it clear." ”

Dongfang Ming's opening remarks were not bad, and I took the opportunity to say: "Boss Dong, did Manager Xu of Hot Spring Villa buy a bronze mirror from the Ming Dynasty from you a month ago?" ”

When Boss Dong heard the bronze mirror, his face changed slightly, but he quickly returned to his usual words: "Yes, there is such a thing, what's wrong, it is definitely a bronze mirror of the Ming Dynasty, and I, Dong Guowei, have never done business with a bad conscience." ”

I nodded and said, "Boss Dong, I didn't say that you were selling fakes, I just wanted to ask about the origin of this bronze mirror, I don't know if it's convenient for you to tell me." ”

Dong Guowei squinted his eyes and looked at me for a while, and replied: "I remember that a young man pawned it to me, and I don't know the specific origin, it seems that it is ancestral." ”

Dongfang Ming heard Dong Guowei's words, and said with a smile: "Boss Dong, this is where you are not kind, you are an experienced expert, it is impossible not to see that this bronze mirror is a bright weapon, and you even sold it to Mr. Du, which makes the hot spring villa panic now." ”

Dong Guowei was exposed by Dongfang Ming, and sweat droplets the size of beans suddenly appeared on his forehead, and he hurriedly explained: "Master, how is this a bright weapon, impossible, absolutely impossible." ”

Dongfang Ming snorted coldly and said: "It's not a bright weapon, then how do you explain the strange things that happened in the hot spring villa, since the bronze mirror was placed in the room, the guests who stayed in the room will have nightmares, it is clear that the evil spirit enters the body, do you think that Du is always a woman to bully?" ”

Dong Guowei wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, shook his head and said: "Mr. Du is young and promising, how dare I bully her, let me ask you, do the dreaming passengers say that they have a terrible nightmare, but they can't remember it after waking up." ”

I know everything clearly, but I'm still pretending to be innocent here.

I looked at Dong Guowei with some dissatisfaction and said: "Boss Dong, Mr. Du entrusted us to deal with this matter, since you know that you will have nightmares, why do you want to sell the bronze mirror to Manager Xu." ”

Dong Guowei suddenly sighed and replied: "Wronged, you really wronged me, this matter has to start with that guy." ”

According to Boss Dong, a young man came to pawn the ancestral bronze mirror of the family that day, and he didn't think much about it at the time, thinking that the bronze mirror was genuine, so he planned to spend 10,000 yuan to collect it.

Who knew that the guy said that this is a bronze mirror with a story, as long as you put the bronze mirror by your side, you will dream when you sleep, and in the dream there will be a woman telling you her story.

That's right, what Boss Dong said is right, there is indeed a woman who said that she had something to tell me.

I hurriedly asked, "Boss Dong, did that guy tell you what the story was at that time?" ”

Dong Guowei nodded and said: "I mentioned it, a very boring love story, what about the white fox and the hunter, I'm not interested in this, that guy just wants to sell more money, I finally added 5000 to him, can it be that it really makes people dream?" ”

White foxes and hunters?

No, how could it be so coincidental, could it be the story of the white-haired fox and Yang Fulu submitted by Dalimaru.

Zhou Xueqin probably forgot it a long time ago, so she didn't react at all, but I was extremely shocked, why did Zhou Jun know this story, could it be that he was the one who sold the bronze mirror?

I hurriedly asked, "Boss, do you remember what the guy looks like, when did he sell it to you?" ”

Dong Guowei shook his head and said, "I remember that he was very short, and he sold it to me about a year ago." ”

I sold it a year ago, and it looks like I got it wrong.

Could it be that Dalimaru is not Zhou Jun, but this guy who sells bronze mirrors, so how did Zhou Jun know this story.
