Chapter 62: Secret Words

I can't mention Lao Lu, nor can I mention the living dead jade, in a hurry, I remembered a set of "black words on the road" that Commander Lu had taught me, to put it simply, that is, to use a "metaphor" that can't be beaten with eight poles to describe what I really want to express.

The so-called "Lushan has dragons" seems to outsiders to be a matter of Lushan, but the old man on the other end of the phone knows very well in his heart that I am not referring to Lushan, but Lulong County in Hebei. The so-called "weird boy inside", the old man knew as soon as he heard it, and I was referring to the conjoined baby in the mouth of the female ghost! As for "don't eat incense, only eat yin and yang", it is better to understand, this sentence refers to the female ghost in the tomb who is unwilling to accept the worship of incense by later generations, and uses the "yin and yang pot" to turn into a powerful ghost and poison the world.

In Lulong County, only the old man and Lao Lu knew the inside story, and now a stranger appeared out of thin air, not only could he say the "code words" between them, but even the female ghost knew that there was a conjoined baby in her mouth. The old man is a smart man, and after thinking about it, I guessed that I must be Lao Lu's henchman, and I came all the way to find his old man, most of which was Lao Lu's big accident.

When the old man thought of this, he knew that the environment I was in at the moment was inconvenient for me to speak, and the telephones in the institute all had their own recording functions. So he suddenly laughed, deliberately played haha on the phone, and said a lot of words about the cold and warmth, what "Have you eaten?" "Beijing is cold, right?" "How are you doing?" Etcetera.

I understood what he meant, so I said something that didn't hurt or itch. After chatting for a while, the old man suddenly reported me a series of phone numbers, and told me that this is his current mobile phone number, and if I want to find him in the future, don't bother the leaders in the office, just call him. The white-haired old man on the side is naturally not a fool, he knows that the old man and I are acting, and they are talking to each other in code, but they don't have a problem with us, so they can only laugh dryly next to us.

I hung up, hugged my fist at the white-haired old man, and prepared to leave. The old man refused to let me go, saying that since Pudding and I were friends of the old man, they were naturally his friends. Having come all the way to Beijing, if you don't invite us to a meal to show your expression, how can it be hospitality? I already got the old man's contact information, so naturally I didn't have to entangle with him anymore, and after saying some kind words, I left with my pudding head without replying.

After we walked away, the nervous pudding breathed a sigh of relief, and then turned his head and asked me, "Mo Laosan, why did the old man in the research institute just now keep wanting to keep us?" ”

I said, "In the tomb robbery business, intelligence is the most valuable." Some old people who are deeply skilled only need to hear a few key words to accurately judge the approximate location of the ancient tomb. Pudding, you must know that if a large tomb is discovered, the starting price is estimated at "100 million", although the people in the institute are not tomb robbers, but their performance evaluation for promotion is also calculated according to how many ancient tombs have been protected. For example, the "Mawangdui Han Dynasty Tomb" was discovered by "Xia Nai", who was just a researcher in the Institute of Literary Studies. Because of this merit, Premier Zhou personally approved the document and promoted Xia Nai to five levels in a row as an encouragement, and since then he has left his name in the history of the archaeological community. So the old man just left us to eat, just to get our information, understand? ”

Pudding nodded, and said worriedly: "I said, I think that old man is a smiling tiger, you don't know, when I was in the research institute just now, I was afraid that you would leak out about Lao Lu, but it's okay to have a false alarm." Mo Laosan, what should we do next? ”

I said, "The most important thing now is to give the old man a call first." We came here to ask him to come out of the mountain to help, and nothing else was important. ”

Pudding said, "Good! ”

So I took out my mobile phone and dialed the phone number reported to me by the old man, maybe after the old man hung up the phone, he also kept the phone side, waiting for my next call, so he answered it just one ring, and after connecting, he didn't say a word, and asked me bluntly: "What's wrong with Lao Lu?" ”

I took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Lao Lu is dead......"

There was a sudden "clang" on the other end of the phone, as if something had fallen heavily to the ground! I hurriedly yelled into the phone, "Hello? Feed! Are you alright, old man? Feed! You speak! ”

Although I couldn't see the old man's expression, I could completely guess what kind of pain and shock he would have felt when he heard the news of Lao Lu's death. No one answered on the other end of the phone for a long time, and it wasn't until more than three minutes later that the old man picked up the phone again, and his vocal cords were almost torn, and he choked up: "How did he die?" ”

I said, "He died on the way to find the jade of the living dead." ”

The old man cried angrily: "You deserve it! Damn it. Lao Tzu has long said that that thing is evil, you can't find it, Lao Lu, this bastard is really a fucking pig brain! What a pig brain! ”

I Mo Laosan is a person who swears a lot, but I didn't expect this old man to be even worse than me, two of the three sentences are swearing, I was yelled at by him inexplicably, and I heard him say that Lao Lu is a bastard pig brain, and there was naturally a little anger in his heart, and he scolded angrily on the phone: "Old man, don't fucking scold, people are dead, you still have a fart for you to say this!" If you had been so strong and stopped him, why would you be where you are today? I'm Lao Lu's apprentice, I'm going to see you now, I have a lot to say to you, you give a happy word, don't you see you! ”

The old man was stunned for a moment, and then snorted coldly after being silent for a while: "Lao Lu's apprentice, hehe, he is a violent temper like your master, okay, then let's meet, but I have to warn you in advance, if you want me to help you find the living dead jade, you better go home as soon as possible." How, see you yet? ”

I was shocked, and I thought to myself, you old lad, how clever you are, and you can guess the purpose of my coming to you. But the motto of our Hokkien people is "three points are destined, seven points rely on hard work", never give up until the last moment, although your old man said that it is impossible to help me find the living dead jade, but I have made up my mind, this side must be seen. I don't believe that after meeting, I can't move you with my three-inch tongue!

So I gritted my teeth and said angrily to the old man on the phone: "See! ”

The old man sneered, "Very well, boy. When you come to Qinhuangdao in three days, I will send you the detailed address to your mobile phone, and we will meet at that time. ”

I replied, "Okay, old man, we'll meet." ”

So we both hung up at the same time.
