Chapter 16, The Purple Jade Box

The school was closed for half a month because of the fatal case, and even the cafeteria was closed, and everyone had no place to eat, so they all gathered in Biyuanxue. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Su You, why don't you and your uncle move over too, live in 'Wind' like Dalong, and if there are many people, you can take care of each other." Yi Han said, brought out the last dish from the kitchen and put it on the table, "Come and eat." ”

"Yes, Ayou, you and Uncle will both move over, save me from staying alone in the empty room every day, you don't know how boring it is." Dalong said.

Su You gave him a blank look, stretched out his chopsticks to add meat to the uncle next to him, and added some to his bowl before saying, "Are you really not afraid of being implicated?" ”

"If I was afraid that you would be affected, my sister and I would have moved abroad a long time ago, and we could still be so close to you and sit at the same table to eat?" Yi Han said, filling his mouth with vegetables, and muttered, "I'm good at it." ”

Su You stood up, bowed deeply, and said, "Thank you all." ”

In the evening, Su You sat on the sofa in the living room on the first floor, and Su Zuoyi sat opposite, and Dalong was busy making coffee in the kitchen.

"Uncle, I think we have a breakthrough."

Su Zuo also nodded, and Dalong, who had made the coffee, hurriedly asked, "What breakthrough?" ”

Su You said to Dalong one by one, Dalong slapped his thigh and said: "Damn, I finally found the thread, with the thread, I am not afraid that I will not be able to ignore this ball of wool!" Tomorrow morning, we'll go to Professor Yu's house to see what the manuscript is. ”

After saying that, they went to sleep.

Early the next morning, the three of them came to Professor Yu's house as professors and students, all dressed in black suits and holding white chrysanthemums.

It was Professor Yu's wife who opened the door, with a very haggard face telling about the hard work of the past few days, making tea for them and chatting about the professor's deeds before his death.

Professor Yu is indeed a respectable person, who has anonymously sponsored many students with his salary for decades, but he himself has no children.

"Our family is a workaholic, often shut themselves in the study, a close is a day, do not eat, do not drink, do not let me bother, the first few days is the same, but a close is three days, I am a little worried, because the time is too long, I am worried about his body, I went to knock on the door, there is no response inside, want to open the door, the door is locked inside, the outside can not be opened at all, I realized the seriousness of the matter, I found a locksmith to unlock, the door opened only to find that there is nothing inside, the person disappeared like thisIf I could have discovered the anomaly earlier, maybe our family would not have left in such a daze. So saying, the woman began to weep and remorse.

"People can't die without life, please look at it," Su You said, pulling out a tissue and handing it to the woman.

At this time, the uncle on the side said, "What did Professor Yu study during his lifetime?" ”

The woman thought about it for a moment and said, "It should be a special study of the geological characteristics of the Shaanxi generation, I don't know the specifics, he never told me about work, but..."

"But what?" Dalong asked.

"But I think he is always very mysterious about his work, if I remember correctly, the geological characteristics of Shaanxi are the subject of his research in college, how can it be that he has been studying a topic for decades? Maybe it's just to be with his old friends and discuss some of the things that don't have them. The woman said, smiling, it must have been Professor Yu who must have made her **** a lot of heart before her death, and now she thinks about it, and it has become a good memory, the only thought.

People are like this, when they are alive, they feel tired, they feel annoyed, they feel worried, and when they die, they will find that they are priceless treasures and precious memories.

"Who are those people?" Su Zuo also continued to ask.

"There is no one, the one who often plays with him is Professor Mu, by the way, he is also a teacher in your school, it seems that he is the vice president of that college, I can't remember clearly."

"'Knock knock', is anyone there? Old sister-in-law, it's me who has come to see you. ”

There was a call outside the door.

"What a coincidence, Cao Cao Cao arrived, and Professor Mu came." As he spoke, he got up and went to open the door.

Seeing this, Su You and the three of them also got up, and Su You said: "Since there are guests visiting, we will also leave, and please mourn." ”

The three of them took a look at Professor Mu, who was panting in a black Tai Chi suit, with steamed buns and white hair and wrinkles on his face, but he was in good spirits, and at first glance he really felt a little bit of fairy wind and bones.

I don't know if it's an illusion, Su You, who walked at the end, looked at the old man, and the old man also glanced at him, and at the moment of looking at each other, the other party threw a look and a kind smile that didn't know what it was, and Su You was very uncomfortable to look at.

On the way back, Dalong asked, "Let's go to the point today, is the manuscript or something from this old man?" ”

Su You was also surprised, the uncle just asked about some of the old professor's deeds during his lifetime, which had nothing to do with the purpose of their coming here, and couldn't help but look at Su Zuoyi as well.

Feeling the doubts of the two, Su Zuoyi, who was walking in front, did not look back, and said: "In the dead of night tonight, we still have to come once, secretly." ”

"Trespassing? Exciting, worthy of being an uncle, it's really exciting. The big dragon was rubbing his hands on the side, eager to try.

Su You always felt strange, and he couldn't think of anything strange, so he just gave up.

That night, the three of them got ready and came to Professor Yu's house.

Professor Yu's family lives in a small two-story building, and the study where Professor Yu often works is in the far corner of the northwest corner, which is close to the fence and is very hidden. Even so, the three of them still did a good division of labor, Su You and Su Zuo also went in to find the manuscript, and Dalong was responsible for taking the wind and answering outside.

When they were ready, Su You and the others neatly climbed into the study on the second floor.

This study room is very large and messy, with a lot of books, surveying and mapping tools and drawings at hand, and it is quite difficult to find a manuscript.

Su You looked at the drawings all over the ground, and didn't know what to do, so he had to look for it.

Fortunately, this old professor classifies and seals the documents for his work, and only needs to find each category, and then carefully search them one by one.

It's been more than forty minutes since I looked for it, Su You was sweating all over his body, nervousness and anxiety made him sweat constantly, and his clothes were tightly attached to his body, which was very uncomfortable.

Su You stopped, wiping the sweat that was immediately flowing into his eyes, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of something glowing at the bottom of his mouth on the bookshelf, and his heart suddenly rose to his throat.

"Uncle, come here, see what this is?" Su You whispered.

Hearing Su You's voice, Su Zuoyi immediately walked over and saw the subtle light.

Su Zuoyi squatted down and opened the obstacle on the bright light, and immediately the room was illuminated by a purple ghostly light, Su You saw that this seemed to be a purple jade box, from the point of view of Yeming, it must be expensive, and what was contained in it must be a very precious thing.

"Is that it?" Su You asked in a low voice.

"That's it, let's go."

As soon as they arrived at home, the three of them couldn't wait to take out the purple jade box stolen from Professor Yu's house, and Da Long was cheap, and he was about to open it as soon as he grabbed it, but Su Zuo stopped him.

"What's wrong, can't you open it?" The dragon is unknown.

"Now we can't be sure if it's what we're looking for, so we have to check it out first and bring the lighter." Su Zuo also said, stretching out his hand towards Dalong.

Uncle's words Dalong never disobeyed, I don't know what Su Zuo is going to do, but he still took out the lighter very obediently.

Su Zuo also took the lighter, picked up the purple jade box with one hand, roasted it with the flame with the other, and said: "The Yeming purple jade will be transparent at high temperatures. ”

Sure enough, after a while, the place where the flame was roasted was as transparent as glass, but unfortunately there was only a small piece, but it was still possible to see that it was a roll of paper tied with a rope, and it seemed that there was no danger.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and Su Zuo also opened the purple jade box, which was a roll of yellowed paper, I don't know how many years it had been.

Open the rope, the first page, four big characters, came into the eyes of the three people, with a small seal with a brush, writing: "Manuscript of the Night." ”

Su Zuo also spread out this manuscript one by one, except for the first one with four characters, the rest are all drawings, not many manuscripts, a total of six, one word, five paintings.

The first depicts a small island with dense foliage and overgrown weeds; The second painting is the plane of an ancient building, and Su You always has a sense of déjà vu; Chapter 3 depicts a sea, next to a small wooden building on the second floor; Chapter 4 is a long corridor with bizarre motifs carved on both walls, at least not modern; The last one is a continuous snow-capped mountain, and the white birds on the top of the mountain worship each other, and the shape of the bird is strange, I don't know what species it is.

After reading a few pictures, Su You raised his head, looked at Su Zuoyi, and said, "Uncle, this can't be a coincidence!" ”

The big dragon on the side also saw the clue and said, "Ayou, isn't this the fucking island in the center of Jinyuetan in our school?" And this, isn't this the ancient building in our dreams? How did this old guy draw it? Could it be this old guy who did it? ”

"I don't think that's the case, judging from the yellowing of these papers, it's been a few years, and it's a lot earlier than us." Su You said.

Could this be a foreshadowing? Uncle, what do you think? Su You asked, looking at Su Zuoyi.

"I'm not sure, but the only thing I know is that I'm afraid I'm in big trouble." Su Zuo also said lightly.

Dalong belongs to the kind of person who has no heart and lungs, and is extremely optimistic, and he doesn't feel oppressive after listening to Su Zuoyi's words, so he picked up the purple jade box and said: "This is really a good thing, such a valuable thing is wasted in these pieces of paper, why don't we sell him, maybe we can sell it for a good price!" ”

"Aren't you afraid that the matter will be revealed, and you will be convicted of burglary?" Su You glared at Dalong and said coldly.

Dalong said: "People die for money, birds die for food, if this thing is really that valuable, it is cost-effective to squat for a few years." ”

"I'm afraid that some people dare to sell this thing, but no one dares to accept it," Su Zuo also picked it and continued: "In ancient times, anyone who owned a small piece of Yeming purple jade could be rich and rival the country, let alone such a big box. ”

Listening to Su Zuoyi's words, Dalong's eyes widened, and he held the box in his arms like a baby, and said: "In the future, this will be our family heirloom, and future generations will not worry about eating and drinking." ”
