Chapter XXVII

As soon as these words came out, the fat man glanced at Gao Chao, and Gao Chao glanced at the fat man again, and both of them gasped.

However, Gao Chao immediately shook his head and said: "Impossible, impossible, Mr. Xia is a leading figure in the field of Chinese archaeology, how can he be a member of the Thirteen Families." ”

The "Thirteen Families" mentioned by Gao Chao and the Fat Man are the thirteen corpse touchers, earth fairies, and tomb robbers who are known to everyone in the antique industry before the liberation of the old times.

As the name suggests, these thirteen families are thirteen families with surnames, namely the Zhao family, the Liu family, the Zhou family, the Sun family, the Wei family, the Xie family, the Qi family, the Yang family, the Shen family, and the Wang family, the Lu family, and the Lin family and the Gou family in the Liangguang area, but they have an important rule, that is, they do not divide the territory according to the location of their family. This is because the corpse touchers are all fighting on the ground and taking the soil as food, so a pot of rice has to be eaten by everyone, and whoever touches it out is whoever's, even if others touch the gate of their own house, as long as there is something under the ground that you don't find, then you have to keep this rule, so although most of these thirteen families are concentrated in the Central Plains, their footprints of tomb robbing are all over China.

Just now the fat man suspected that Mr. Xia was also in the thirteen families, in fact, this is also a certain possibility, because the thirteen families in the old times also had a glorious period, but then the war continued, and the fate of the thirteen families was not the same, just like Zhao Fatzi's family, his father participated in the army of Erye and went to war, and the other members of the thirteen families, I heard that some changed careers to do other businesses, and some went to Nanyang and never returned to China, all in all, the life of these thirteen families was not very good, and the fat man heard his father say, At that time, there were a few families who changed their names and surnames in order to survive, so when the fat man remembered this matter just now, he felt that this Mr. Xia might also change his name and surname, maybe it was someone from the Thirteen Family.

Although there are these theoretical bases, Gao Chao at the moment still shook his head and doubted the fat man's guess.

However, the fat man said disdainfully to Gao Chao: "Lao Gao, this is nothing unusual, after the founding of New China, many corpse touchers have been recruited, my father knows a lot, those people used to be miscellaneous servants in the field with thirteen branch pots to pick up leaks, and now they are all mixed like dogs, and they also have the title of experts, and they are called honorary consultants, you should also know this, right?" Therefore, this Mr. Xia may really be a senior in the thirteenth family, maybe he and my father still know each other, if he is stingy, I will have to call him uncle! ”

At this time, the fat man was squatting on the ground and chatting with Gao Chao, and he couldn't help but hear someone behind him say sharply: "I have long seen that the two of you are wrong, but I didn't expect that it is really not a good thing, even if I am a corpse toucher and a tomb robber, even my grandfather is insulted by you, I will make you two look good now!" ”

The person who spoke was none other than Xia Qing, just now she was scared by the big mouse and squatted on the ground, and it took a long time to come to her senses, and then she followed the sound into this room, and she heard the conversation between Gao Chao and the fat man very clearly, so at this moment, when the fat man said that her grandfather was also a corpse toucher, she really couldn't help it, so she took her mobile phone in anger and wanted to call the police, so that the police arrested Gao Chao and the two of them.

Gao Chao and the fat man understood what she wanted to do as soon as they saw her movements, whether she had evidence or not, it was difficult to explain just that the police came, so Gao Chao and the fat man acted immediately, and they jumped up from the ground in a flash.

Although the fat man looks fat, in fact, his body is full of real meat, at this moment he saw Xia Qing holding his mobile phone to call the police, so he rushed up with an arrow, the action was by no means inferior to the big mouse just now, in a blink of an eye, he had already snatched Xia Qing's mobile phone in his hand, and then looked at the mobile phone screen, the phone had not been dialed out, and then he was relieved.

However, the fat man was already angry, and when he opened his mouth, he scolded: "I said you stinky woman, are you an undercover agent sent by the police?" You're going to call the police at every turn, do you really think we're doing that? You don't have a long head to think about it, if our brothers are corpse touchers in the outer eight lines, can you still have the life to stand here now? (Police tune, Changsha dialect, same as the police.) )

Gao Chao saw that the fat man was really angry, and as he spoke, he was about to step forward and pull Xia Qing's arm, but it seemed that he couldn't hold back his anger, so Gao Chao hurriedly stopped the fat man.

"Fatty, forget it, I don't think she has any intentions, besides, what we just said is indeed a bit too much, after all, Mr. Xia is very respected in the industry, how can we talk about him like that."

As Gao Chao spoke, he took Xia Qing's mobile phone from the fat man's hand, and then he turned to look at Xia Qing, and then said: "Miss Xia, you also misunderstood us, our brothers are really not the kind of people you imagined, our two families are just doing business in Qingshuitang, and they can't run away if they have a storefront, and they are definitely not tomb robbers who touch the corpse, so don't think about it anymore, give it, and give it back to you......"

Gao Chao handed Xia Qing's mobile phone over, Xia Qing looked at Gao Chao before reaching out to pick it up, Gao Chao found that Xia Qing's hands were still a little shaking, probably because he was blinded by the fat man just now.

So Gao Chao said sincerely to Xia Qing again: "Miss Xia, I apologize to you now, the fat man and I really shouldn't suspect Mr. Xia behind our backs, his old man is respected, and we are confused for a while when we think like that, so please forgive us." ”

When Gao Chao said this, he quickly dragged the fat man on the side, meaning that he wanted the fat man to apologize and say something soft, after all, this meeting is a bit embarrassing now, in Gao Chao's opinion, it is better to solve the things that can be solved now, to prevent the future from being settled.

But at this moment, the fat man was standing on the side sulking, seeing Gao Chao dragging him, he also knew what Gao Chao meant, but he hadn't swallowed this breath yet, how could he still admit his mistake to Xia Qing now, so he turned his head, glared at Gao Chao fiercely, and stopped talking.

Gao Chao understands the temper of the fat man, and his brute strength is similar to that of a child, but there is no way at the moment, so he has to say to Xia Qing with some embarrassment: "Miss Xia, my brother didn't mean to scare you, he is actually a very good person, but he was reckless just now, don't blame him, I will compensate you on his behalf, everyone will be friends who have met in the future, after all, it is not easy to meet an expert like you in our industry, we will encounter an unpopular problem in the future, and we will have to find you to give us advice, Then again, if you go back to the UK in the future, you have to have a few friends in the country, and if you need help in the future, as long as you can afford to look down on our two brothers, in a word, we will definitely not even fight, and we will not hesitate to go to the soup and fire......"

In fact, Gao Chao is a more sleek person, in his opinion, he must leave a way back for himself when doing things, after all, in society, it is better to have more friends than many enemies, especially a woman like Xia Qing, then she can't afford to offend, needless to say anything else, that is, people are now saying bad things about their brothers to people in the industry, I'm afraid they can't do their business.

That's why Gao Chaocai said so many good things in Xia Qing's face, and blew Xia Qing to the sky, and Xia Qing, after all, she is still just a foreign student, although she is already very professional in the field of archaeology, and she also has some fame, but in terms of human sophistication, she has no experience, so when she listened to Gao Chao's apology, her heart had already been discouraged, and she even felt a little embarrassed.

So Xia Qing coughed dryly, interrupted Gao Chao, who was talking, and pretended to be a little angry and said: "Forget it, I don't bother to listen to your explanation, this matter was originally your fault first, I heard you talk about my grandfather like that, of course I can't accept it...... But I was a little impulsive just now, and I didn't know what to do before I went to the police......"

At this point, the fat man squinted at Xia Qing and snorted, Gao Chao quickly kicked the fat man and scolded: "You hum a fart, if you don't talk nonsense, can Miss Xia be in a hurry like that?" ”

The fat man saw that Gao Chao was giving himself a step, so he had no choice but to sigh and say to Xia Qing: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that." ”

Xia Qing saw that the fat man bowed his head and admitted his mistake, so she glanced at the fat man fiercely, which was considered to be a relief from her hatred, and then she said to Gao Chao: "Okay, I forgive you, but you can look at ......"

As Xia Qing spoke, he looked at the ground behind Gao Chao and the fat man, and then continued: "No matter what this pile of things is, even if it is the Luoyang shovel used for tomb robbery, then it is also my grandfather's relic, you just poured it out and put it on the ground, it was too much, now that the two of you have admitted your mistake, you should return it to its original state, pack it up and put it back in its original place!" ”

It turned out that Xia Qing saw that on the ground behind them, the steel pipes and shovel heads of the Luoyang shovel were scattered on the ground, seeing things and thinking about people, and thinking of the deceased grandfather, he felt a little sad and uncomfortable, so he asked Gao Chao and the fat man to put those things back into the canvas bag as they were, which can be regarded as respect for grandpa.

Gao Chao saw that Xia Qing said this, thinking that Xia Qing had really forgiven the two of them, so he hurriedly responded: "It's all wrong to blame us, let's take things back now!" ”

As he spoke, he dragged the fat man and turned around and squatted on the ground, carefully putting the steel pipe and shovel head of the Luoyang shovel back into the canvas bag one by one.

The fat man shook his head and sighed while cleaning up, and muttered in a low voice: "It's a pity, it's a pity, such a good thing is put in the corner of the wall to hair!" ”

Gao Chao glared at the fat man, and also whispered: "What else can you do without hair?" If this kind of thing is seen by the police investigators, it will be sentenced to you directly! ”

The fat man said disdainfully: "Do you think that there is a Luoyang shovel and a tomb robber?" Don't really raise the bar, my fat man has this hobby, I take the Luoyang shovel to make a hole in my yard, who cares? No matter how awesome the police tone is, he doesn't have a problem with me! ”

The fat man was unconsciously bragging again, but this sentence was supposed to be bragging, but Gao Chao was taken aback, and a year suddenly flashed in his mind, so he immediately stood up and stared at Xia Qing with his eyes......
