Chapter 42: The Key (8)
"What? Are you Old Man Wei? Nie Xiaohu was surprised.
"What? Isn't it like? ”
"No, your age...", Nie Xiaohu asked suspiciously.
"What's the age? My surname is Wei, my name is Laotou, Wei Laotou! Did you hear me clearly? ”
"Oh oh oh", Nie Xiaohu nodded hurriedly and said, "I understand this time!" Old man Wei! ”
"Hmm", Old Man Wei nodded with satisfaction and asked, "Say, what business?" ”
Nie Xiaohu came to the approach of Old Man Wei, took out a key that had been prepared a long time ago, lowered his voice, and whispered mysteriously, "Can you deserve this?" The price is negotiable. ”
Old man Wei glanced at the key in Xiaohu's hand, then looked up at Tang Yibin and the others, and said suspiciously: "Looking at your dress, you don't look like you are stealing chickens and dogs, how can you do this kind of thing?" ”
"The times are different", Nie Xiaohu laughed twice, "If people can see it at a glance, then it's still a fart!" ”
"That's right", Old Man Wei nodded and said, "It's really better to steal out of the blue than the blue, and one generation is stronger than the next!" ”
"Hey, hey, winning, winning!" , Nie Xiaohu arched his hand.
"What are you doing with that effort?" Old man Wei thought for a while and said, "I've been developing a good thing recently, and I just succeeded in developing it last night, and with it, you can do it once and for all!" ”
"What's good?"
"That's it!" As the old man Wei spoke, he took out a key from his arms.
Xiaohu took a closer look, and the key in Old Man Wei's hand was strangely shaped, with a long handle, and the top was like a budding flower bone.
Old man Wei pinched the bottom of the flower bone with one hand, and turned the handle with the other, and the flower bone actually opened a petal, the petal was like a small steel nail, and then turned, and opened another petal, and when the handle rotated three hundred and sixty degrees, the petals of the flower bone were all opened, just like a steel nail rose, which was very beautiful.
"I named it the master key", Old Man Wei had a proud expression on his face, "This key, no matter what kind of lock it is, can be opened, this is called the key in hand, I have it in the world, hahahaha!" ”
"So amazing?" , Nie Xiaohu's eyes lit up.
"Bang dang!" "Ahh Tang Yibin and the other four screamed almost at the same time, and it turned out that the four of them also wanted to get closer to observe the master key, but they forgot about the things hanging on the ceiling, and they all collided.
"Be careful, these are my treasures!" , Old Man Wei screamed.
"What's the price?" , Nie Xiaohu stared at the key in Old Man Wei's hand and asked.
"One price, ten taels of silver!"
"You're robbing money?" , Nie Xiaohu screamed, "Five hanging money!" ”
"I'll go!" , Tang Yibin and the four of them almost didn't fall, this price is cut, art!
"Five taels!"
"Eight hangings!"
Xiaohu and Old Man Wei talked about the price, and they fought until their faces were red and their mouths were foaming.
In the end, the price was fixed at two taels, "Wait a minute! Let's discuss! After Xiaohu finished speaking, he turned around and got together with the four of them.
Before the four of them could speak, Xiaohu suddenly said loudly: "Okay! You've convinced me! ”
Xiaohu then turned around and said, "Deal!" ”
"Poof!" With a bang, the four people behind Xiaohu fell to the ground.
"Pay with one hand, deliver with the other." , Old Man Wei stretched out his hand.
Xiaohu turned his back, took out two taels of silver, and waited for a while, then turned around slowly, stuffed the silver into Old Man Wei's hand, gritted his teeth and said, "Take it!" After saying that, he snatched the master key.
After taking the key, Nie Xiaohu turned around and said to the four of them: "Brothers, let's go, you must pay attention to your work in the future, don't be like Xiao Wei, fall into other people's ways, and you don't know how to die." ”
"Wait", Old Man Wei frowned and asked, "Little Lieutenant?" Which lieutenant? ”
"Which lieutenant else? Of course, it's Han Wei! Nie Xiaohu said in a long voice, and at the same time squinted at Old Man Wei.
"Han Wei is your friend?" , Old Man Wei asked suspiciously.
"yes, who doesn't know anyone in our business?"
"How come I've never heard him mention it?"
"Are you stupid?" , Xiaohu pouted, "We can't see the light of day in this business, just take care of each other, where can we go around and talk about it?" ”
"Hmm", Old Man Wei nodded, and then let out a long sigh.
"I warned him a long time ago to stop doing it, but he just didn't listen, and as a result..., alas!"
"Let's not look at it as a thief, it's all righteous!"
Nie Xiaohu said indignantly: "Grandma's, don't let me know who did it, if I do, I have to peel his skin!" ”
"Do you really want to avenge Han Wei?"
"Revenge can't be talked about", Nie Xiaohu had a helpless expression, "I just want to vent my anger for our brothers in this line, and now because of this incident, we are all in danger and worried." ”
"Hmm!" Old man Wei nodded and said, "This brother, I have a way to find out the murderer, I don't know if you have the guts." ”
"What can you do? Stop bragging! ", Nie Xiaohu said disdainfully.
"Am I bragging?" When Old Man Wei heard this, he jumped up directly, "You wait!" ”
After speaking, Old Man Wei took down an iron lock that looked extremely ordinary on the top of the right corner of the shack, and I don't know what technique he used, the iron lock was dismantled into parts after three clicks and two clicks, and a piece of paper folded into small squares inside the iron lock was revealed.
Old man Wei took the piece of paper that was folded into squares and said, "This was handed over to me by Han Wei after noon yesterday, and he said that if anything happens to him, this letter can identify who is the murderer and his life talisman. ”
Nie Xiaohu's eyes lit up, and the corners of his mouth curled up inadvertently.
"Alas! It's a pity that the life charm still didn't save his life. Old man Wei sighed.
"Really? Show me. Xiaohu said nonchalantly, reaching out and taking the square.
Xiaohu carefully unfolded the letter, it was a very short letter, only a few words, the letter read: "Cousin Tianjiao, please come to room 30 in the Luoning Inn early tomorrow morning, and we will talk in detail." Flower swallow comes"
