Wilderness Underground Palace Chapter 17 Speculation

I drank too much, and I slept until dawn the next day with my eyes closed, and I remembered Mazi when I came to my senses, thinking that he was in his thirties, and there should be no accident, so I didn't think about him anymore. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info old bull head saw that I woke up, and smiled: "The young man has drunk too much, this amount of wine still has to be practiced!" By the way, you're an antique collector, right? I have an antiquity in my house, can you help me see how much it is worth? By the way, if you can see it, you can take it, and it will be a waste of the baby to let me here. ”

After listening to his words, my expression was already stiff, and I asked tentatively: "Uncle Niu, how do you know that I am a collector of antiques?" Who told you that? ”

The old bull saw that I was a little frightened, and handed me a cup of milk tea to suppress the shock, and responded unhurriedly: "No one told me, it was you kid who was not honest when he slept and talked in his sleep, and I heard it!" ”

As soon as he said this, my doubts in my heart were not dispelled, but I was even more worried, in case I told the plan for this trip to the grassland in this dream, I was afraid that I would stab the big basket, and the action would probably have to be canceled: "That...... So what else did I say? "I was getting more and more nervous, and my voice didn't feel a little shaky.

The old bull also drank a cup of milk tea, and stretched out his tongue to lick the cup, as if there was no need to brush it in this way: "Ah, there is nothing else, it seems that a person named 'Xiao Li' was mentioned, and the others seem to be really nothing!" ”

I sighed, but I only mentioned Xiao Li, and didn't say anything else, but this time I thought of Xiao Li, but my heart was full of sourness, what a good person, still so young, just left, I really hope she can live better over there.

Seeing that I was silent, the old bull got up and took a sheepskin bag and handed it to me carefully: "Young man, you can help me see, how much is this thing worth?" Isn't it an antique? ”

I saw that his face was mysterious, and his hands trembling a little as he held the sheepskin bag, and I felt that the contents of the bag must not be ordinary, so I held the bag in my hand and turned the weight upside down, and the sheepskin bag was not very heavy, but this treasure was not worth much by weight, just as a gram of gold was worth more than a pound of stone. Carefully untie the red rope that ties the mouth of the bag, the mouth of the bag is facing down, pour the contents into the palm of your hand, and look at it, it is actually a coin-sized spherical ruby with red light!

Ruby I have seen a few in the old grandson shop, but they are all modern and even fakes old, and the old bull head this piece is not comparable at all, although the ruby in the hand is not big, but the carving is very fine, far can not see, close up can also see the carved unicorn pattern, a unicorn on both sides of the sphere, lifelike, although the picture is small but you can see the skill of the carving master, it is really superb, it is to change to today's machine carving, it should be nothing more than that.

I stared at the ruby for a long time, and suddenly realized that there seemed to be something wrong, now I am not drunk, my mind is very clear, think carefully, this ruby is completely consistent with the vacant position on the dagger that I received from Zhang Debao before, and then think about what Zhang Debao said to me before, and gradually formed a complete story chain in my mind:

I wasn't sure before, after all, the surname "Niu" is also a big surname, and it is very common, but after thinking about it just now, I expected that the old bull head named Niu Dezhi in front of me was the old bull head who shepherded sheep and found the ancient tomb as Zhang Debao said, and the two people must be one person, and there will be no mistake. Look at the ruby in my hand again, my thinking is getting clearer and clearer, people are greedy, this old bull head is definitely no exception, obviously he found the ancient tomb, but in the end he didn't get any benefits, even those experts of the archaeological team don't know that he is such a person, such a situation can not be balanced, but no matter how unbalanced, directly an ordinary person, can not do anything big, even if it is said, no one is necessarily willing to believe the words of this strange old man, let alone this white eye, Then, if he is charged with the credit of a strong national archaeological team, it may be difficult to gain a foothold in this grassland in the future, which the old bull head does not want to think about and dare not think.

It's just that a person has a temper, and no one wants to persuade others to find things they have worked so hard to find, even if this so-called "other" is the country, I feel that I can feel a little better, but there will still be an unbalanced taste, and the bright one can only do the dark, there are many people at the ancient tomb site during the day, and there are police, it is not easy to start, but in the second half of the night, in the dead of night, the cemetery can not be a single person on duty, and there is no blockade, climb into the grave, do not ask for more, just touch out a thing, It doesn't matter if he's expensive or cheap, it's not good to get a psychological balance.

I thought it was good, but when I arrived at the cemetery, I found that it was not as simple as I thought, the grave was five or six meters deep, and I couldn't find any tools that could be used around, even if I jumped down in such a deep place, it was a problem to climb out, the old bull head went around the grave a few times, like ants on a hot pot, and still couldn't make up my mind, whether to go down or not, just when I was entangled, Zhang Debao happened to come, the old bull head knew that Zhang Debao was lazy to do this kid on weekdays, and he was a master who couldn't afford to be early. This big night ran out of more than ten miles, it must be the idea of beating the treasure in the tomb, the old bull head rolled his eyes, why not let Zhang Debao go down to rob the tomb, and then make a profit on it, and deceive the stolen things from Zhang Debao's hands, wouldn't it be effortless to get the treasure?

Seeing that Zhang Debao was getting closer and closer, the old bull head hurriedly hid behind the low mountain, preparing to come out to implement his plan when the time came. Zhang Debao had worked on this construction site before, and he knew a lot about the facilities on the construction site, and it was easy to find the ladder that the old bull head wanted to find but did not find for a long time, and saw Zhang Debao go down the ladder, and he was also anxious and happy, he was afraid that something would happen to Zhang Debao under the tomb and could not come out, and he was afraid that Zhang Debao would not be able to deceive him, but the tomb was pitch black, and he couldn't see anything.

He didn't know how long he had waited, but he felt that the northwest wind was blowing very strongly in the second half of the night, and a few gusts of cold wind blew, and the old bull head was a little unbearable, so he endured it, but he still couldn't hold it back, and coughed out!

This cough was the mysterious cough that Zhang Debao heard, it was just a simple cough, but in the specific environment at that time, Zhang Debao couldn't help but feel terrified, and felt that it was his behavior that angered the tomb owner, so it was like this, and it also stabilized the situation for the old bull's "fraud behind the back" later.

I thought about it for a long time, I felt that my analysis was correct, it should be such a situation, the old bull head saw me silent for a long time, thinking that this ruby was not a valuable item, as time went by, my nervousness gradually faded, but the old bull head was more and more nervous, I saw that there was obviously a cold sweat flowing out of his head, but his heart was a burst of joy, and the business also paid attention to a momentum of the same, as long as one party first served softly, then the other party could kill him to death, and the price was no longer the weak.

Now this is the case, the old bull head obviously has the upper hand, originally I planned to pay 300 yuan to receive his ruby, now looking at his appearance, a hundred yuan may feel like a lot! The two hundred saved should be used as the round-trip travel expenses and the gift money to Zhang Debao.

I looked up and peeked at the old bull head again, coughed a few times and said, "Uncle Niu, I didn't lie to you, I'm afraid your ruby is not a top grade!" ”

"What? This is from ancient times...... It has been handed down since ancient times, why is it not the best grade? "I think the old bull head wanted to say that this thing was made from an ancient tomb, why is it not a top grade, and I was afraid that I would be suspicious, so I had no choice but to make it up.

I saw that there was an opportunity, so I hurriedly added oil and vinegar: "This thing looks pretty good, but ......" I deliberately pulled the long tone again, and then hung the appetite of the old bull head, sure enough, he couldn't stand me like this, and asked: "Young man, don't beat around the bush, tell me directly in the old man, how much is this thing worth!" ”

"A hundred, no more!" I tossed the ruby back in my bag and handed it back.
