Succession Front:

After a few words of sarcasm and sarcasm, we got down to business, and Xiangdong took out a silk handkerchief from his bosom and handed it to me. I took it with some confusion, and then noticed that there was something in the handkerchief. So he slowly opened the handkerchief, and wrapped a jade pendant in the handkerchief, which was all transparent, as if transparent, but there was a red jade in the middle that was the color of chicken blood. I said, "It should be a glass species, but there is a piece of impermeable red in the middle, so it is beautiful, but the value is difficult to estimate." Secondly, the carving of this piece of jade is clumsy, the lines are clearly outlined, the knife and pen are elegant, and there is the style of the Qin and Han dynasties, but the carved beast should be a popular mythical beast in the Han Dynasty, so I think it is the ancient jade of the Han Dynasty. "I really don't know much about jade, these words are blind. Xiang Dong said, "Go on, go on the road." There are only one or two mistakes, keep going. I continued to look at this piece of jade, picked up the jade with my hand and looked at the light: "The part of this jade glass species is very clear, it is a top grade, and it is comparable to the best ice species." I don't know what kind of jade is the red in the middle, it is clearer than the crimson jade of the single jade, and thicker than the jade, but it is lighter than the color of red agate, to be honest, I really don't know what the middle is, but the shape is very special, I can see that the shape looks like, like a man-eating beast? I looked to the east and nodded to the east, indicating that most of the agreement was made. Suddenly, I felt a sharp pain in my hand, and quickly put the jade pendant back on the handkerchief on the table, and then pointed the palm to myself. I saw a large finger-long opening opening and closing, as if it had just been cut and was not bleeding.

I was so frightened that I hurriedly asked Xiang Dong to look at my hand, but after Xiang Dong looked at it, he asked with a puzzled expression, "What are you looking at?" I looked back and saw nothing. I didn't think it was a hallucination, because the pain was still deep in my flesh. At this time, the door of the private room suddenly opened. An old man with crane hair and a childish face appeared in front of me, although his body was a little hunchbacked, but he looked very healthy, his eyes shone with wisdom, and his three-bearded white beard was even more fairy-like. Xiang Dong stood up, shook the old man's hand, and then said to me, "This is Professor Liu, a professor in the history department of ZZ University. An archaeological expert, he has a lot of research on ancient jade. Then he introduced me to Professor Liu, and inserted a sentence here In Chapter 167, the terrifying writer Brother Li once asked me that I was, "I happened to hear from a friend in the jade circle that day, Professor Liu, you know." "Some readers once raised questions, and here I have answered them for the officials, and it was this Professor Liu that Brother Li mentioned at that time.

Professor Liu put on his gloves and raised the jade pendant to smell it on his nose, and then looked at it under the light, in my opinion, the red pattern was darker in color, probably because of the light, Professor Liu said: "I know why you called me here today, you don't know what kind of jade this is, in fact, I haven't seen it." But I can be sure that this is jade before the Qin Dynasty, and maybe even earlier than the Zhou Dynasty, and it was only after the Han Dynasty that it was re-carved. Originally, its purpose was supposed to be sacrifice, because the carved divine beast was used to suppress the strange things in the jade. Maybe by chance, they thought that this piece of jade had magical powers. As soon as I heard the expert, I hurriedly asked what was the cause of the severe pain just now. Professor Liu's face changed and he was busy making me stick out my tongue and open my eyes, etc., and finally tossed to tell me that there was no poisoning, he said that this jade because it has been buried in the ground for a long time, so there may be heavy metals seriously exceeding the standard, and there may be some bacteria, so the ancient jade generally does not have direct contact with the skin, and it can only be contacted after a long time, and this piece of jade is obviously just dug out of the ground by someone. I looked east with the professor. Xiang Dong looked innocent and pretended to be pitiful: "As you know, I only look at the color of the jade, and rarely ask where it came from." ”

Professor Liu was probably used to hearing his words, waved his hand impatiently, and put this piece of jade into a beautifully made wooden box without asking Xiang Dong's opinion, and then said to Xiang Dong: "I'll take it back and study it, and you can come to my house tomorrow to get it." With that, he picked up the box and walked away quickly.

The next day, the tingling sensation in my palm was subsided, but it was still there, so I went to the hospital for a check-up, but it turned out that there were no wounds or internal injuries and bruising, let alone any poisoning. When I walked out of the gate of the Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou Medical College, I was tapped on the back, and I hurriedly turned my head: "To the east!?" "Xiang Dong stood behind me with a bouquet of flowers. I asked, "What are you doing at the hospital?" It won't come to see me. "Of course not, come with me to see Professor Liu, something happened to the professor." After speaking, he walked east to the inpatient department. I also followed, what would happen to the old man who was still in good spirits yesterday.

When I arrived at Professor Liu's ward, there were the professor's children around the bedside, and they obviously knew Xiang Dong, and they exchanged a few words of greeting Xiang Dong. Professor Liu waved his left hand and still did not speak, he motioned for his children to leave the ward, and I was about to leave, but the professor said, "Listen to it, young man, it has something to do with you." "We raised Professor Liu's bed, and Professor Liu's face was very pale, as if he was not a person at all compared to yesterday's crane-haired childish face.

The professor said a little tiredly: "Yesterday I came home, and after dinner, I locked myself in the study and concentrated on studying this piece of jade. I didn't dare to take off my gloves while playing with this piece of jade, I thought it could sting your little brother (referring to me), indicating that it must have a secret that no one knows. I observed the shape of its red part, and on closer inspection, it saw that it was a biting beast with a man in its mouth. People are struggling hard, but they can't get rid of it. I was stunned, as if I had seen a vivid picture. This must be some kind of major discovery, and it may be a totem of some tribe's sacrifice. I was excitedly reading and writing records, and suddenly I saw the red on the pattern flowing, I looked closely but was attracted by this red, I took off my gloves and wanted to touch the red. I knew I could be poisoned and I could have the same sharp pain, and these thoughts flashed through my mind, and I thought they didn't matter anymore, I just wanted to touch them. I touched it gently, and I didn't feel anything. I stroked the surface of the jade with the palm of my hand and felt the warmth it brought to me. That's when I understood what you called the severe pain, my arm seemed to crack a big slit, and I don't know what it was in my arm sucking my blood frantically. I used the last bit of strength to shake off the jade. But the jade pendant seemed to be stuck to my palm, and I couldn't shake it off. I lost the last bit of strength and fell to the ground in despair, knowing that my son had opened the door and rushed into the room, and picked open the mysterious and beautiful jade pendant with a stick. ”

The professor paused at this point, I was a little incredulous, although I had encountered many supernatural things, but this time the incident was too evil for me to believe, although the severe pain also tortured me, but it was not as thrilling as the professor said. The professor handed Xiang Dong the box from yesterday with his left hand, and then explained, "Open it slowly, don't touch it." "I opened the box to the east and I slowly leaned over, oh my God, the jade has changed. There is a type of jade that is living jade, which is a layer on the outside and a layer on the inside, and the inside will slowly change color and shape over time. The same is true of this piece of jade, but it changes too quickly, and we see that the red on the red monster in the middle is more vivid, emitting a faint red light, and the red light allows us to see more clearly that the color in it is rotating and flowing violently.

Xiangdong slammed the box shut, then pounced on the professor like crazy, lifted the quilt, and under the quilt I saw a scene that I still remember, the professor's right hand was white and shrunk on his arm, and there was no life at all, as if, as if, yes, it seemed to be drained. Xiang Dong squatted on the ground with his head in his arms and cried, Professor Liu smiled and stroked Xiang Dong's head, and said to Xiang Dong over and over again: "Child, this is not your fault, this is fate." ”

Three days later, I saw Xiang Dong's dejected figure in the night club where I was, and I opened a private room to get a drink and drink it with Xiang Dong. I patted him on the shoulder, but Xiang Dong said, "I'm okay?" I eagerly asked him what he was doing these days, and he took a large glass of vodka and drank it all and said, "I went back to my hometown and went to the house where I hid treasures, the one I took you there last time." I dug a pit for a day, bought this jade pendant deeply, and made a magic object in the town. "And where are you going to bury it for how long?" How long are you going to seal him? I poured him another glass and asked.

"Forever, at least my life." Xiang Dong said firmly with tears in his eyes.

In this story, I believe that you must have a lot of questions, but I will explain in advance here, this is what I know and what I see, and I can't guess the rest, and I can't think of anything. Actually, I would like to know three things as well.

First, what is the relationship between Xiang Dong and Professor Liu, it seems that the relationship is very good, not just to identify the business relationship.

Second, what kind of magic object is used to suppress the piece of jade in the east, and how long can it be suppressed.

Third, what exactly is in that piece of jade?

I want to know, even fantasize, but after all, I am telling these real ghost stories, and this is the story of the bloodthirsty ancient jade.
