Chapter 20: The Conjuring Talisman

I said, "Second uncle, you came just in time." www.biquge.info The second uncle said, "I heard screaming in the room outside just now, but when I thought about it, I felt that something was wrong, I already thought that there was something wrong with Tong Xiangyu. ”

The second uncle walked to the room and saw that the puppet had been tied together with ink threads, so he was about to throw glutinous rice at the puppet, and said in shock: "You want to destroy the rhythm of the red girl, you must know that this female ghost is our young master Chen's girl, and she wants to inherit the ancestor of our Chen family." ”

He was so angry that he wanted to attack Tong Xiangyu, but I stopped him: "Don't move yet, she may be the same type of person as us." What did he mean by asking? I said, "She smells of the ground." The second uncle said, "You can also see this?" I'm really convinced, I only smell perfume. ”

The second uncle was a little surprised, and looked at Tong Xiangyu: "Isn't she just the head of a prostitute?" ”

Tong Xiangyu said: "You don't look down on people, I'm not a person in the Qinglou at all." I was negligent just now, and I fell into your way, and you took the opportunity to sneak up on me, which is not the work of a gentleman. ”

When I came here just now, I did see that this place is different from other places, there is a place to play cards, there is a place to sing, and it is indeed different from ordinary Qinglou.

Tong Xiangyu said: "The girls who come to us are all children who have lost their parents, and they come here to eat, not to sell their art. As soon as she said this, it was a bit contradictory, since she was selling her art and not selling her body, why did everyone dress up so beautifully?

Tong Xiangyu said: "That's what you don't understand, this is not called showmanship, this is called dressing exquisitely, the guests who come to our store, at least let them be pleasing to the eye." I said, "Aren't you afraid that people will come and make trouble?" Tong Xiangyu said: "Whoever dares to make trouble, I will cut off his legs and feet." With a bang, a delicate knife in her cuff slipped into her hand and stuck it the floor, the cold light flashed, I was a little stunned, and quickly said: "I believe, I believe." ”

Tong Xiangyu said: "By the way, what did you just say about going to the ground, can you take me with you?" I was a little surprised: "How can that work?" If you don't have something good to do, what are you going to do in the field? ”

Tong Xiangyu said: "Drunken Xianglou is not long-lasting, as the saying goes, prosperous antiques, troubled gold, although now in troubled times, but the price of antiques is actually not cheap." I want to go down to the ground and find some bright weapons, I believe that I can get them out of the sea of suffering. She said very noblely, I don't know if it's true or not, the second uncle looked at me, and he was also confused.

Tong Xiangyu squeezed out two tears from her eyes and said to us, "If you are looking for some ancient tomb, please bring me with you." "Judging by this girl's posture just now, it seems that she is very good at catching ghosts, and may be able to help us.

However, the second uncle didn't think so, he felt that this girl was lying, and he didn't believe that there would be such a noble person in this world. He pulled me aside and said to me, "Is that really just going to let her go?" ”

I nodded: "This chick looks good-looking, so she shouldn't be a bad person." ”

The second uncle said: "Your kid is not deeply involved in the world, you don't know much about some things, I think this little girl has a problem, it's better not to let her go, maybe she has other purposes?" I think her argument is a bit too far-fetched. ”

I agreed with his idea, so I said to Tong Xiangyu: "If you can give us a reasonable explanation, I will let you go with us, otherwise there is no need to talk." ”

Tong Xiangyu wiped away her tears, glanced at me, and said: You are looking for the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, right? ”

I was suddenly surprised, since we came to Xi'an, we have never mentioned to others about looking for the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, how did she know? Tong Xiangyu was surprised to see us and said, "You are Young Master Chen, right?" I nodded, and she said again: "Young Master Chen is famous, who doesn't know him?" Although my drunken incense building is a mixture of fish and dragons, but there are also benefits of mixing fish and dragons, and there are various transactions here, including the specific location of the ancient tomb. ”

As soon as I heard this, the matter became clear, and if we could really get the entrance to the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, then we would save a lot of trouble, and I asked her how she could get this information. Tong Xiangyu said: "As long as the price is right, it is not difficult to get information. I have the entrance to the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor. ”

As soon as I heard it, it was great, and I hurriedly asked her to take it out and show it to us, Tong Xiangyu said: "You treat me as a three-year-old child, I spent two thousand taels of silver to get it, and you will give it to you if you say it will be given to you?" ”

The second uncle said: "Our young master is not short of money, how much do you say can sell us this entrance position?" How about I give you three thousand taels? ”

The second uncle is good at making claims, we came to Xi'an from Beiping, and we wanted to leave the Chen Mansion quickly, as if we were fleeing for our lives, only brought a little coiling, how could we bring so many silver taels? When Tong Xiangyu heard this, she said, "I think this price is okay." ”

The second uncle smiled and said, "Young master, take the money out quickly!" You're not bad for money, are you? ”

I flipped my pockets upside down: "Second uncle, where do I have any money now?" ”

Tong Xiangyu said: "You can't do it without money. ”

The second uncle said to me, "Why didn't you say it earlier if you didn't have any money?" ”

I said, "You didn't ask me." ”

The second uncle's cowhide was blown out, which made me so faceless, and my heart said, if you don't have face, you won't have face, so I said without skin and face: "Miss Tong, I am the famous Young Master Chen, I will buy your information at a price of three thousand taels with a personality guarantee, but I have to make an IOU." ”

Tong Xiangyu was still hesitating, and I continued: "Didn't you just say that you wanted to enter the ancient tomb with us?" I promise you, how about you take half of the Ming Vessel you get? ”

Tong Xiangyu thought for a moment, took out a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and asked me to write what I just said on it: Young Master Chen owes Tong Xiangyu three thousand taels of silver, and the Ming utensils found should be divided into half of Tong Xiangyu, and signed and drawn. The matter was settled, but Tong Xiangyu didn't believe us very much, she didn't tell us the exact location of the entrance to the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, but decided to tell us when she got there. I understand that she is indispensable to guard against others, but I also added a condition to borrow another 100 taels of silver from her to buy equipment. She said, "This hundred taels should be given to you." ”

Without further ado, we bought some gear and hit the road.

We first took the train, arrived in Xi'an, and then walked to the northeast, and arrived in Lintong in less than a day. This section of the road from Lintong to Lishan is rugged and difficult.

On the way, I met a hotel, there were not a few people, the business was not very good, only one boss was there, and when he saw our group coming, he walked to us diligently, and said while walking: "Ladies and gentlemen, please, there is the best wine and food here." ”

I looked at the inn, and the facilities were extremely basic, with two tables and a few stools, and some wine and food in the kitchen.

I asked the shopkeeper how far it was from Lishan, and the shopkeeper looked to the east and said, "It's far away!" There are at least twenty miles to go. By the way, what are you here for? ”

Tong Xiangyu said: "We are here to inspect the customs. ”
