Chapter Eighty-Nine: West Alley

Chapter Eighty-Nine

After that we went to the place where we went last night, and when we got there, the blockade had been pulled up, everything was blocked, and there were a lot of people gathered around there to watch. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info I was standing there with the fat man, and I heard from the people there that a large number of experts from the province rushed over overnight to inspect and asked everyone at the scene, but no one knew that there was a tomb here. Then in the morning, a large number of people came to do the excavation work, and I heard those experts say that it may be because of the rain washing, and the age of this tomb, the oil compartment inside has long been overwhelmed, so when the oil compartment was broken, the ancient tomb was destroyed.

After hearing this, the fat man and I were relieved, but fortunately they thought about it in this way, so now they will not suspect me and the fat man, at first I also wondered why the oil in other tombs would catch fire as soon as it touched the air, and the oil in this one should be ignited. This is because not all the oil can be ignited as soon as it meets the air, and the oil that ignites when it meets the air is difficult to preserve, at least the owner of this tomb did not have that ability, and the standard of living at that time was not too high. Among the ancient tombs I have seen, very few people will irrigate fire oil into their tombs, because if they are not careful, their tombs will be destroyed, and who wants to die without a place to live?

Where did the fat man and I stand until the morning, more and more people came, and people from all over the country knew that there was an ancient tomb here. The fat man and I saw that the things we brought up were all the broken copper tiles we saw inside, but the people here regarded them as treasures, and the fat man and I naturally couldn't squeak. Later, I heard from the people inside that this is a twin tomb, what is the twin tombs, as the name suggests, there are two people living in it. This is consistent with what I saw in the two of them, and when I listened to the experts, they said that one of them was buried in the back, which reminded me of the picture that the bloody zombie made after opening the other coffin, and I don't know why!

The day passed quickly, and the excavation was nearing completion. The fat man and I felt no longer the need to watch it anymore and left, because we had more important things to do. Then I went home with the fat man, and then I went to my grandfather's room, but we didn't find the box, because I remember that the box was on top of the bookshelf. Later, I simply picked out with my grandfather, and asked him where the box on the bookshelf went, and my grandfather told me that in the first half month of my return, a group of people came to us, and then said that I had a national cultural relic at home, and my grandfather said that the gang took out a lot of documents, and then gave them a batch of bonuses, and then took the box away, and grandpa also felt that something was wrong at first, but the box house has been there for a long time, and it has been there since I was born, and grandpa said that he doesn't know the origin of that thing. And grandpa opened that thing countless times, but there was nothing in it, thinking of this, grandpa didn't have any doubts, so he gave it to them. No one ever spoke of it since, until now when I come back.

I asked my grandfather to try to figure out who put the box there, and he shook his head and said he didn't know, and he said that the thing appeared there for no reason, which made me feel very strange, why didn't grandpa know the origin of that thing! Also, the person who took that thing away was certainly not a good person, and certainly not a serious person. I didn't expect someone to be faster than me. This gives me a headache, the clue that I just built up is broken again, what to do now, my mind is blank!

After that, I stayed with the fat man for a few more days, and then we went back, and since the clue was broken, we had to go back and see if there was any other way to go. Then it took about half a day, and we arrived in Hefei. I also carried the knife with me, which I found in the relics of the tomb robber, and I looked at the knife and felt that it was extraordinary! And I don't even know what the material of this knife is made of, but it is definitely not made of ordinary copper and iron. Put away the knife and we went to my shop, Zhao Jia was still in it as always! Seeing us back, he naturally went out to meet us.

I couldn't be happy at all now, so I went upstairs alone, leaving the fat man and Zhao Jia on it, I naturally knew that the fat man's kung fu when he spoke must be another nonsense. I lay on the bed, rubbed my temples, I don't know what to do next, the fat man told me on the road, if you really can't do it, you should stop, it's good to open an antique shop like this, in fact, I don't think so in my heart? But I can't go back now. A flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in my mind, by the way, when I was hospitalized, someone once stuffed me with a note, didn't it say No. 505 Xilong Hutong? Now the only way to follow this clue is to chase down. I went downstairs and saw the fat man and Zhao Jia talking.

"What's more? So happy! I quipped.

"It's down! What do you think! The fat man said.

"It's okay, it's probably just a little motion sickness, just take a break!" I said.

"Hey, fat man, I think we're going to find Xilong Hutong!" I said to the fat man.

"The one when you were discharged from the hospital?" The fat man said. I naturally knew that the fat man was talking about the note left behind, but with Zhao Jia next to him, it's hard to say!

"What are you talking about! I don't understand, boss, when did you get hospitalized! Zhao Jia said.

"Go, go, what do children know!" The fat man said. Then the fat man pulled me out.

"That's fine! Go ahead! But without this girl, you won't be able to find Xilong Hutong in your life! Zhao Jia said!

As soon as I heard this, my eyes lit up briefly. "Grandma, do you know where the West Lane Hutong is?" I said. The fat man also immediately came up, but he didn't expect that he would be able to find it by our side! This is something we didn't expect.

"If you know, tell us quickly!" The fat man said.

"I refuse, what did you just say, didn't you say I don't understand?" Zhao Jia said.

"Isn't it okay if I'm wrong? Tell us cleanly! The fat man said. Seeing the fat man say this, Zhao Jia couldn't say anything, and then told us everything.

It turns out that the West Lane Hutong is not in the center of Hefei, but in the suburbs, to be precise, in Zhao Jia's hometown, and the West Lane Hutong is not an alley, it is a place name! So even if we asked all over Hefei, we couldn't find this place. What surprised me was that Zhao Jia's home was in that place, was this a coincidence or what, I didn't understand it anyway, since I knew that there was this place, I set off!
