Chapter Twenty-Eight: Chance Encounters

I have to say that I am very surprised by this, when my grandfather got this thing, his master told him that it was a piece of fragments, and when it came to my hands, he naturally listened to my grandfather's words and summarized this thing as a fragment. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The reason why Zuo Zhongtian could see that this thing was part of the Tiger Talisman was also because he had a Tiger Talisman in his hand as a reference, otherwise where would someone put such an inconspicuous piece of broken jade on the Tiger Talisman.

I handed the two things to the poison-eyed dragon, he took them in his hand and looked at them carefully for a while, his face showed a look of surprise, he was particularly surprised by Zuo Zhongtian's discovery, this old man was really hidden, and the two things in his hands were only half a day's work, and he could actually see these many clues. Second, he felt a little incredible from the bottom of his heart about Zuo Zhongtian's discovery, and he naturally couldn't be clearer about the origin of the two things, and he never thought that there were still these inextricable connections between them.

After seeing it, the poison-eyed dragon returned the thing to my hand, and said to Zuo Zhongtian: "Professor Zuo is worthy of everyone, we are laymen, I am afraid that if we put it in our hands for two more lifetimes, we will not be able to penetrate the secrets." ”

Zuo Zhongtian waved his hand: "You don't have to praise me, I only have this useless ability left in my life, these two things, one is an imitation..."

Before Zuo Zhongtian finished speaking, as if he remembered something, he stood up suddenly, walked to the bookcase and flipped through it for a while, took out a crumbling blue book from it, showed a smile on his face, dusted off the book, and handed it to us.

Zuo Zhongtian turned to one of the pages and said to us: "Come and see, there are chapters in this book that introduce the tiger talisman in detail, but it also records the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period at the earliest, which is at least a thousand years different from the one in your hands, but it is also a reference, you might as well take a look." ”

The tiger talisman mentioned in the book originally appeared in the early years of the Western Zhou Dynasty, cast by Taigong Jiang Ziya, but the specific process and material have no certificate to examine, and there are two different tiger talismans in my hand, and I don't know which one is really from Jiang Ziya's hand.

But there is one point, the original role of the tiger talisman was not for the deployment of troops, but for some kind of sacrificial activity.

In the end, the information we got here was limited to this, and we got up and took our leave.

Before leaving, Zuo Zhongtian also said to us that he hoped that we could donate the things in our hands, so that if someone saw this thing in the future, maybe they would be able to know one or two of them.

Of course, I couldn't say no, so I told him tactfully that I hoped that I would be able to understand the secrets in my lifetime, and that I would be able to explain to my grandfather in the future.

Zuo Zhongtian saw that I had made up my mind, and he didn't say anything more, but hoped that we could take good care of these two things and not let them flow overseas.

I nodded my head and reassured us to leave.

Leaving the campus of Wuhan University, it was already dusk, and the three of us were already grumbling with hunger, and I wanted to invite Zuo Zhongtian to eat together, but it can be seen that he couldn't hold back as soon as he started the conversation, and the nagging was endless, so I broke off this thought.

In the evening, the poison-eyed dragon found an inn near the train station and stayed there, and the fat man and I went back to our respective homes.

Early the next morning, the poison-eyed dragon was ready to go to Guangzhou, and I had made an appointment with the fat man to see him off, but the fat man felt that he was always at home, and his old man was chattering all day long, and his ears were about to grow calluses. Early in the morning, he also carried his luggage, and went south with the poison-eyed dragon.

The three of them went out, and finally I was left alone to go home, suddenly became a little lonely, sat in the room and had nothing to do, so I went to the hospital to take a look at Zou Yanchang, he was recovering well, and his daughter-in-law was taking care of him.

Out of the hospital alone wandering on the street, passing by a longevity store, there is a middle-aged man dressed in foreign style sitting at the door, the simplicity of the longevity store is contrasting.

Life and death are commonplace in the hospital, and although this kind of longevity store is not very popular, it can take two or three orders a day, which is enough for several days.

This business is also a relatively hated business, after all, no one in the hospital wants to step into this store, but this store has some exceptions, and there is a queue at the door.

At this time, the sun is not big, the sun in autumn is warm, sitting at the door of the longevity store middle-aged man holding a folding fan in his hand, there is a small square table in front of him, there is a stool in front of the table, once someone gets up and leaves, immediately someone sits on it, one after another people go, some people come, people always have to buy some incense or yellow paper and other things in the house, anyway, there is no empty hand to leave.

I stood aside curiously and watched for a while, and found that this middle-aged man would show everyone a palmistry, check the pulse, and finally whisper a few words in the person's ear, no matter who was sitting on the other side, he would always smile when he got up.

I couldn't hear what he was saying, so I lined up behind the line of more than a dozen people. Everyone in the team had different expressions on their faces, some were happy, some were worried, and only I was at a loss.

Finally, it was almost my turn, and I glanced back, and there were more than a dozen people behind me.

I have not been in contact with fortune tellers, and there are some similarities with feng shui tombs, and I also know a little, but it is really rare to have such a large number of believers.

The man in front of me stood up with a smile on his face, and I walked over to the stool and sat down, stretching out my left hand and placing it on the table.

The middle-aged man looked at me and smiled, "Ask what?" ”

I looked around blankly, I was just curious, but when it was my turn, I was a little dazed, and I didn't know what else to ask for a while, and before I could speak, the man said, "I know, you don't need to say it." ”

I was a little surprised, I didn't say anything, and I couldn't help but ask, "Do you know what I'm asking?" ”

The middle-aged man smiled: "Feng Shui tomb, the strange news of the world." At five o'clock in the afternoon, after I close the stall, you can come to me again. ”

After speaking, the middle-aged man stretched out his hand and motioned for me to get up, I was a little confused, just two sentences asked me to come to him after five o'clock, and said two inexplicable words, I couldn't help but feel a little weird.

After leaving the Shoucai store, I have been thinking about the eight words "Feng Shui Tomb, Strange News of the World", isn't this the ancient seal left by my grandfather? Does this man know that I have such a book in my hand?

So who is he? The more I thought about it, the more I couldn't understand it, the more I couldn't understand it, the more I thought about it, and finally I just shook my head and simply didn't think about it, anyway, I went to him at five o'clock in the afternoon.

I had something in my heart, so I sat in a nearby noodle restaurant and watched the endless stream of diners, and waited until five o'clock in the afternoon, and looked at the fortune-telling stall in front of the sushicai shop opposite, and looked at my watch, which was exactly five o'clock.

When I came to the shoucai shop, the middle-aged man saw me coming, raised his head and looked at me, and said with a smile: "It's just in time, help me clean up, and I'll take you to a noodle restaurant later, where the hot dry noodles are the most authentic." ”

The tone of his voice was as if he had known each other for many years, and although he was puzzled in his heart, he was helping to pack up his things.

There were a lot of things in the store, and around six o'clock, the two of them barely packed up the things that were placed outside the store, pulled down the roller shutter door, and the middle-aged man took me to a noodle restaurant.

The middle-aged man seems to come here often, knows the owner of the place very well, and after sitting down, he asks for a bowl of noodles and two bottles of cold beer. Until this time, I was completely confused, and I didn't know what he wanted to do, but then I thought about it, I was a seven-foot man, and I was afraid that he would not succeed.

The middle-aged man saw the doubts in my heart, and only said: "Don't worry, let's talk about it after eating noodles." ”

At this point, I had nothing to worry about, and after a while, two bowls of noodles and two bottles of cold beer came up, and I was about to start eating the noodles.

The middle-aged man raised the wine bottle: "Come, touch one, it can be regarded as a life-saving grace for our old man." ”

As soon as I heard the grace of saving my life, where did I start with this, the old man of his family, it is estimated that he is sixty or seventy, I never remember that I saved such a person, retracted the outstretched hand, and asked: "Can you say it clearly, sir, your surname?" Who is Ling Zun? ”

The middle-aged man laughed: "Old things, I guess there was no you at that time." My surname is Yi, a single name and a single word, have you ever heard of it? ”

I shook my head, not to mention that I had never heard this name, and I had the impression that I had never been in contact with someone with the surname Yi.

When I was puzzled, Yi Shu had already gobbled up the bowl of noodles in front of him and put down his chopsticks: "You haven't heard of my name, you should have heard the name of the old man in our family, Yi Xinnian." ”

When I heard this name, it suddenly dawned on me, and I felt that this name was unusually familiar, as if I had grasped something, and it seemed like a mess, and I had no clue. It took a long time to understand.

Yi Xinnian is my grandfather's senior brother, although the seniority is higher than my grandfather, but the age is much younger than him, I looked at the Yi Shu in front of me, a little unbelievable, he claimed that Yi Xinnian is his old man, then he is not my uncle.

Yi Shu saw that I remembered, and raised the wine bottle in his hand again: "How about it, should I touch one?" ”

I hurriedly picked up the wine bottle with both hands and touched him, looked up and slowly drank the bottle of wine, put down the bottle and asked puzzledly, "How do you know about me?" I don't think I ever said who I was. ”

Yi Shu smiled: "At first, I wasn't sure, you stood in front of my stall for a long time, until you sat down, the ghost talisman around your neck really caught my attention, my father once told me about this thing, there are only four in the world, I naturally haven't seen it, but I heard my father talk about it." ”

I looked down at the poison-eyed dragon for me and the fat man, and smiled bitterly, I didn't think that such a fake could cause such an adventure, which is rare. (To be continued.) )
