In my sleep, my mind was full of women pulling my back in the water.

Throwing away that miserable white face, the beautiful back makes people suffocate in it, and vaguely feels as if where have you seen it, Hezi Village? Erdao estuary? Or the female corpse that appeared at the east gate of the corner?

I didn't figure it out until I woke up.

When he opened his eyes, Jin Yiyi sat on the edge of the bed with a bowl of hot fish soup, muttering that if I hadn't opened my eyes and looked blind, a few people would not have almost confessed their lives in the Yellow River.

I asked him if there was a dog barking at the end, and he said yes.

The dog was the big black dog of the Yellow River corpse collector, and when he was cruising the river with the corpse collector, he barked wildly at the river.

But the marriage of the Yellow River Niangniang is a moldy head that even the Yellow River corpse diggers dare not touch, fortunately, the Yellow River Niangniang did not plan to embarrass us too much, otherwise none of the four people in the river today would be able to come up.

I asked, "What did you all see?" ”

Jin Yiyi said: "I didn't see anything, we only dared to open our eyes when we heard the dog barking, we only saw that your eyes were rolling, and you had been washed down by the river. ”

After waking up, my body was still a little chilly, and I drank a whole bowl of fish soup in one go before I warmed up a little. I put down the porcelain bowl in my hand, looked around, didn't see Tong Xiaomeng and Chen Tao, and asked them where they were.

Jin Yiyi grinned: "I guess I'm about to get up, if you're full, get up quickly, I haven't rested all night." ”

There was an old-fashioned clock hanging on the mottled wall of the loess, and I saw that it was almost five o'clock, and I guessed that it would be five o'clock in the morning.

Sunrise mist.

The sky here seems to be brighter than the north, when I go out, the sky in the distance can already see the fish belly white, the river breeze blows a little cold on the body, I wrapped my collar and stood in the small courtyard, the walls around are dilapidated and rotten, but the yard is clean, there should be someone living here.

Looking back, there are three farmhouses made of yellow mud behind him, with a hall in the middle, two bedrooms next to the ear, and a kitchen in the courtyard, which is very characteristic of building houses in the countryside of the Yellow River Basin. I guess this should be the Nan Crawler's house that gave Jin a piece of goods.

Chen Tao probably didn't live here, and I suspect that the person who taught him this skill should be the Yellow River corpse collector in the village, but it's still early, and I was thinking about what was happening in the river, and I walked from the front yard to the backyard before I walked around, and in my sight, a huge black shadow curled up in the corner of the earthen wall.

I was startled, thinking that the woman from the river had found me, but when I blinked, I realized that the shadow was not a person, but a large, exaggerated shell.

A dark green complete Wang Ba shell, lying quietly in the corner of the backyard, is like a sleeping Wannian Wang Ba, crawling there, making people feel an inexplicable fear from the bottom of their bones.

This is the piece of Wang Ba shell in the photo?

I thought that this turtle shell had been washed by the Yellow River for thousands of years, and it had already decayed and dilapidated, but I didn't expect that the surface of the whole turtle shell was brand new, without a trace of wear and tear, and it was glowing with a faint blue light, just like the ancient time that had passed.

I walked over and reached out and touched the hard turtle shell, the surface of the turtle shell was covered with a layer of coolness, I don't know if it was because of the humid air by the river, the air was very humid here, giving people the illusion that the turtle shell had just been fished out of the water.

"Such a big king eight lids......"

Someone suddenly spoke behind me, I turned around suddenly, and saw that it was Tong Xiaomeng who appeared here without knowing when, so I breathed a sigh slightly.

"Woke up?" I turned my head and continued to look at the turtle shell.

Tong Xiaomeng walked over, stood side by side with me, stared at the turtle shell in front of him with a sigh of embarrassment, and said, "Is this thing real?" ”

I turned to look at her, "You think it's artificial?" ”

She bent down and reached out to caress the turtle shell, followed the lines on the surface, shook her head and said: "Once this thing appears, do you know how much impact it will have on the biological world and the archaeological world, and even subvert some textbook theories in the history of paleontological evolution, it is simply incredible." ”

I smiled and said: "I don't know if it will be subverted, I'm just worried about how such a big thing can be hidden from people's eyes and ears and safely transported out of the village, if it is reported halfway, then Lao Jin will have to pay out of his own pocket and become a real national hero." ”

Tong Xiaomeng looked at me and said, "Is this thing valuable?" What can a king eight shells do? ”

I thought for a while and replied: "In the old goods store, pay attention to the rarity of things, many things alone in the world are worth far more than many gold, silver and jewelry, this trip to the old gold if you can really ship this thing out and then find a suitable buyer, not to mention anything else, at least the small supermarket does not have to do, you can go to Australia to buy a villa for the elderly." ”

Tong Xiaomeng's eyes widened, she had been doing research with Professor Gu for so long, I was afraid that she didn't know that some things that seemed useless to the market could be sold at such a sky-high price.

She asked, "Then the villagers here, knowing that it is so valuable, can they still sell it to you?" ”

I laughed, the truth of doing the old goods, in fact, is the same as collecting the rags, you can't collect the old goods as the old goods, you have to treat it as the rags, and there is no skill, we are used to calling it "buying with a ride", that is, I actually buy some worthless things, and then say that I have no spare money, just a whole, the owner said I am looking for you, I'm sorry, no, I'll ...... Just find something to build on, and I'll have to suffer a small loss after I finish it, so don't look for it.

This pair may be a bottle of soy sauce, or a broken stool, or an iron rake for digging dung, but in fact, these are the things we want. But if you buy it directly, others will definitely suspect that it is not appropriate for you to pay any amount of money for this thing, and people will definitely treat it as a baby, and if you don't drink your blood, you will definitely not make a move.

So there is not much theory in this, it has to be combined with the actual situation and personal reaction, according to my father's words, it is whether there is enough bad water in the stomach. I'm not as good as Jin Yiyi in this regard, and I have to learn a lot from him.

We chatted for a while, the day was almost dawn, Jin Yiyi accompanied me all night without sleeping, just lay down and estimated that I would wake up at noon, the first to find us was the owner of this house, an honest farmer named Liu Dehan.

In his fifties, his face was very characteristic of a farmer in the Yellow River Valley, and he looked honest, he boiled millet porridge for us, pasted a few hot dumplings, and the three of them sat in the yard while eating and chatting about the piece of Wang Ba shell in the backyard.

Liu Dehan said that the Wang Bahuzi was dug up from the river by the whole village, so the money from the sale was distributed to the whole village, and it was only temporarily stored with him, not his private property.

I didn't take his stubble, but I just said that your bridge is broken now, even if someone buys it, it is not easy to get out, and it is easy to be discovered, if you stab the public security department, it is estimated that everyone will not get a penny.

Liu Dehan's face turned white after hearing this, but I comforted him and said, in fact, it doesn't matter, we mainly want to collect some other small things this time, if the things are enough, we are not interested in this Wang Bahu, but if it is not enough, we will discuss it, and we can take it away by the way.

This can be regarded as an indirect capture of his psychology when he learned that the government was going to relocate Shanxia Village, and it is not difficult to understand that Wang Ba Shell was hidden in the backyard, the government must have come to do an investigation, if he didn't sell this turtle shell before the village was relocated, it would basically be equivalent to smashing it in his own hands.

The old man asked something else, so he hurriedly left under the pretext that he had something to do, I guessed that he was looking for someone to discuss, and then I heard Tong Xiaomeng pouting and saying, "Are you going to cheat people like this?" ”

I smiled: "I didn't say that I wouldn't give money, and I won't give less money, Jin Yi came with a deposit paid by the next family this time, what are you bothering about." ”

"Can you really give more?" She asked.

"Hmm."

"I can't see that you profiteers still have a good conscience." She said.

I said speechlessly: "I don't have a conscience, I won't mix with you in this troubled water, no." ”

This sentence can be regarded as talking about the cheeks, I didn't expect Tong Xiaomeng to be very aggressive, but she was extremely sensitive to this matter, smiled awkwardly, drank two bowls of porridge, and planned to go out to the village.
