Chapter 1: Old Itch Gets Out of Prison
This sentence was only a few words, but it drew all my thoughts to the past.
"The Fish Are With Me"
What fish? My mind stirred, could it be a snake eyebrow copper fish?
Judging from the patterns on the tomb stone carvings, this strange ornamental fish should be three heads and tails connected together. Now I have two in my hand, and I really should have one more to match with these. Who is this person? Since he has this picture and knows about the fish, does it have anything to do with it?
Could it be one of the missing people?
I carefully flipped through this web page, and there was no signature or contact information, but looking at the time, the information has been on it for a long time. This is a bit bizarre, since it is looking for someone, and you don't leave your own contact information, isn't this in vain?
I searched in different ways, hoping to find more information, but I searched and searched, and this one was related to this.
I couldn't help but be frustrated, but it was a big discovery. I thought to myself, when I go back, I will find a few computer experts to help me analyze it, and maybe I can find some clues.
And so on and forth, the damn storm finally passed. The day after the storm passed, there was a Qiongsha ship coming from Qinglan Port in Wenchang. When we saw that there was nothing left to do, we packed our bags and prepared to go back. Before leaving, we went to the military medical clinic to look for A-Ning, but she was gone, and when we asked the doctor, he didn't know when A-Ning left. I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, I didn't know what to do with it
She, she didn't say goodbye to me.
It's just that I may never know the secret behind her again. But now I lack everything, just no mysteries. I guess I may never see her again, and I have no interest in knowing about the good things in my heart.
Two days later, at Haikou Airport, I said goodbye to the stuffy oil bottle and the fat man and got on the plane to Hangzhou. Four hours later, I was back at home in Hangzhou. I called Wang Meng first and asked about the situation in the shop. Except for little business, everything is normal. In fact, no business is also a normal part, and if there is a business, it is strange. Then I called the third aunt, the sixth mother-in-law, and the seventh aunt, and asked all the relatives who had dealings with the third uncle, but there was no result. I finally called the third uncle's house, and one of his guys answered the phone, and I asked him, "Has Wu Sanye been back?" β
The guy hesitated for a moment and said, "The third master has never come back, but there is a strange man who says it is your brother, and we have to tell him where you are." I don't know where he came from, but seeing that he is slippery, it doesn't look like a good thing, so I'll send it to you. He left a phone number when he left, why don't you come and take a look? β
I thought for a moment and asked him, "How old is that man?" β
"I don't see that, I'm about the same age as you. A little older than you, with a small head, triangular eyes, a high nose, a pair of glasses, and an earring,
It looks nondescript. β
"Nondescript?" I repeated these words, and suddenly I had a flash of inspiration and asked the fellow, "Is that man not very good at talking?" β
"Yes, yes, yes......, damn it, that guy had to stutter a dozen times before he finished a sentence, and he almost suffocated me to death."
As soon as I heard it, I knew who it was, and I was overjoyed, so I hurriedly asked for the phone number and called. A voice that was both familiar and unfamiliar came from the phone, "Who...... Who...... Who is it? (stutters)"
I laughed and shouted, "I cΔo your nΗinΗi egg, can't you even hear my voice?" β
He was stunned for a moment, let out a few excited sounds, and also shouted: "You...... You nΗinΗi's egg, three ...... Three...... I haven't listened to you for three years, of course I listen...... Can't hear it. Look at your voice, it's really developed. β
I couldn't help but feel sour, the person on the other side of the phone was an old itch, and I forgot what his real name was. He and I grew up wearing the same pants and doing everything together, and for a while we were almost like each other. His family was relatively poor, and he couldn't find a job after graduating from secondary school, so he came to work in my shop. Don't look at him, his mouth is not good, he is especially good at calling people. When he was there, the business of my shop was not bad, but three years ago, this kid didn't learn well, and followed an old watch from Jiangxi to Qinling to play upside down, but he was caught, and the old watch was directly sentenced to life. He relied on his mouth to snort around, turning himself into a good young man who was deceived by undesirable forces in society, and as a result, he was sentenced to three years in prison. At the beginning, I wanted to see him, but I didn't expect this kid to save face, so he just refused to see me. Later, I didn't bother to pay attention to him, so I cut off contact. I didn't expect this kid to be released from prison.
Speaking of which, he will go to the inverted fight, and I have a lot to do with it. Since I was a child, I have been bragging in front of him about how powerful my grandfather is, and I also showed off in front of him with a tomb robbery note. This kid is a bold thief, when I was a child, I came up with the idea that he would get into trouble, but I didn't expect to really take action.
I had something to talk to him for three years, and as soon as I opened the conversation, I couldn't close it, until I was not happy with the cramps in my mouth, so I called him over and said, "You're fucking okay at night, buddy, I'll pick you up." Let's go rub it together and have a good drink. β
Old Itch was also talking about it, and replied: "That...... That's a good feeling, Lao Tzu hasn't eaten a large piece of meat for three years, this time I want to eat a refreshing meal! β
This was the case, and I was so excited that I couldn't sleep, so I took a shower, cleaned up the house, and went to the agreed hotel to wait for the kid, and ordered all the big pieces of meat on the menu. In the evening, the boy came. I looked, yo, this kid is not normal, he has been in prison for three years, and he is still fat, and his face is swollen like a pig's head.
When our two old friends met, without saying a word, they first killed half a bottle of Wuliangye, recalled their previous lives, and looked at the current situation, and couldn't help but sigh. Drink until you are full of wine and food, and the bottom of the plate on the table is facing the sky, only to realize that you have nothing to say.
I had drunk too much at that time, and when I was full of hiccups, I asked him, "Tell me the truth, what the hell did you pour back then?" Your Jiangxi old watch was even sentenced to life. β
He actually looked proud, clasped his teeth, and said, "No...... It's that I don't tell you, and even if I do, you don't understand. β
I yelled, "Pull it down, I'm not the hairy boy I was three years ago." Tell you, Lao Tzu is also a little famous now. Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, as long as you can tell the shape, I can know what it is. β
I itched to look at me seriously and laughed: "Just ...... Just like your bear, you are still Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties! As he spoke, he dipped his chopsticks in the wine and put something on the table, "He ...... He...... Damn, have you ever seen this? β
I was drunk and hazy, and I couldn't see clearly after a few glances, but I only felt like a tree and a pillar, and scolded: "You donkey egg, you have been squatting in the kiln for three years, and you haven't grown at all in painting, what do you call this painting?" The whole mallet! β
Lao Itch looked at it himself and felt that the painting didn't look like it, and said, "You...... You...... Just live and see! That's it...... That look is only worthy of looking at this kind of painting! β
I looked at it again, but I couldn't quite come to a conclusion, and said to him, "This thing looks like a pillar of clouds, and you can see these forks." You mean the pattern, it's like a tree fork, I can't see it! β
Old Itch lowered his voice and said to me very mysteriously, "Don't you ...... Don't say, this is the fork of the tree. The thing I fell was a tree, but not a real tree, a bronze tree! Have you seen it? β
I had a very heavy brain, and I knew that I was dying, and I couldn't think of what this bronze tree looked like, so I asked him, "How heavy is this thing, you don't fall down with small things, but you are a behemoth, don't you look for it?" β
He patted me on the shoulder, peeled a scallion and fried prawn, threw it in his mouth and said, "How can I be so stupid, I ...... I brought four pottery ...... Pottery plates, also ...... There are also two pieces of jade coming out, and my old cousin has to move this bronze tree, saying that this is a treasure! Damn, the two of us used all our strength to eat nΗi, only to find out that this tree grew in the soil. We dig down, and we can't see the bottom of the tree for seven or eight meters, do you think it's strange? I don't know how deep this tree is in the ground! I guess it's not simple, and there must be some purpose in plugging it over there. β
I listened and knew about it, so I asked him, "Since you didn't move out, how did you get caught?" β
He said, "My old cousin has been nervous since he saw that thing. After we left Qinling, we wanted to find a place to sell dirty, but I didn't expect him to say it when we saw someone. The place in Qinling has been bitter since the ancient village tomb robbery, and the rumors have been very tight, and I didn't sell a plate, so I gave it to the public security office! The bucket we poured was from the Qing Dynasty, and the things were not worth much, so I bit and said, 'I was deceived' and barely sentenced to three years. My old watch was only four or five years old, but I didn't expect him to be crazy, shaking out all the things that happened before, and he was sentenced to life and almost died. β
I let out an "oh" and said, "Then you really carried it home, and you have been busy for so long and have not caught anything." How many times have I told you, don't get dirty on the spot. You are engaged in the business of the eight foreign traders, and you have a conflict with the locals, which is called retribution in this world. β
Old Itch smiled mysteriously and said, "I'...... I'm not fishing for nothing...... Fish, look at this thing...... West? As he spoke, he pointed to his earrings!
