Chapter 16: Twenty Years Ago

Xia Qi looked at this room curiously, the house visited all kinds of treasures, including blue and white porcelain of the Ming and Qing dynasties, calligraphy and paintings of major famous artists, priceless gold Buddha statues, and even some bronzes of the Warring States, but they are all broken, and the value is greatly discounted, the most conspicuous is the Tang Yin's authentic "Huiqin Map" hanging in the center of the hall.

"Wow, this Tang Yin is the genius Tang Bohu of the Ming Dynasty, right? This is Tang Bohu's true handiwork? The painting is really good, you look at this mountain and this tree, it really feels like being there. Xia Qi pointed to the painting and said to me.

"Although the painting is good, it's a pity that it's fake." I leaned back in my chair and said lazily.

"What? Fake? Don't be kidding, such a big store will use fakes to come to the town? Xia Qi looked at me incredulously and said.

"Because it's true....in my hands, if this one is real, then mine is fake, and I'm very confident in my own painting, so this one must be fake."

A cold snort came from inside, "Old man Long just asked you to come to me to dismantle my platform?" A middle-aged man in a Tang costume walked out of the room, this person looked to be about fifty years old, square face, a pair of sword eyebrows, a red face with a black beard but also looked not angry and arrogant, slender hand wearing an emerald ring, the other hand with a sandalwood bracelet, slightly chubby figure looks extraordinary.

"Do you know my grandfather?" I stood up in surprise.

"Humph! Not to mention acquaintance, although we haven't talked to each other for 20 years, but to say that 20 years ago, we were brothers from birth to death. The middle-aged man said a little proudly, "Since you call him grandpa, then you are his grandson Long Xiaotian, so the old man is in good health?" ”

"My grandfather passed away in May of this year." When I talked about my grandfather, I was not only sad, but Xia Qi next to me patted me on the shoulder comfortingly.

"What? You repeat! Old man Long, he ...... He's dead? The middle-aged man asked in disbelief, and I nodded in reply.

"Big brother! Why didn't you even inform your brother when you left, is it worth it for that unwarranted secret? After hearing my confirmation, the middle-aged man not only sat on the chair with tears in his eyes.

"You say, how did my eldest brother die? How could he suddenly die when he was in such good health? Who killed him? The middle-aged man looked at me with angry eyes.

"Grandpa has a heart attack and myocardial infarction, and when he finds out, it's too late to rescue him." Speaking of my grandfather's death, I couldn't help but shed tears, "It's all because I didn't take good care of my grandfather, I usually have to care more about him, and he won't ......" I couldn't cry anymore as I said it.

"Brother Tian, don't be too sad, people can't be resurrected after death, don't be too sad and break your body." Xia Qi hurriedly comforted me and said.

I wiped my tears and asked the middle-aged man, "I haven't asked the shopkeeper yet, what is your relationship with my grandfather?" ”

The middle-aged man calmed down his emotions and said: "This is a long story, I didn't expect that it has been 20 years since I was separated from your grandfather, and you have grown up, I am very relieved to see you, it seems that my worries with your grandfather are superfluous." ”

The middle-aged man picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip of water, as if sorting out his thoughts and continued: "The thing I told you is real, if you hear something bizarre, don't doubt it, this is true, who is this girl next to you?" I don't want outsiders to hear about it. The middle-aged man asked Long Xiaotian with a little hesitation.

"This is Xia Qi, my friend, I believe in her very much, don't treat her as an outsider, I don't want to have any secrets between me and her." I glanced at Xia Qi and said to the middle-aged man.

Xia Qi was a little angry when she heard that the middle-aged man wanted to drive her away, but after hearing what I said, the face that had just been pulled down showed a smile again, and then she pulled my arm, "I love to listen to stories the most, uncle, tell me about it." This made it clear that he would not leave, and the middle-aged man frowned, "Since you want to hear it, I won't stop it, just don't be frightened for a while." ”

Then we all sat down and listened to the middle-aged man talk about some of his past.

"This thing starts from twenty years ago, my real name is Feng Jiuge, your grandfather's name is Long Jun, we also have a sworn brother named Xie Cangyun, your grandfather is the eldest, I am the third, people who are familiar with me call me Feng Sanye, now we are all in the antique business, but twenty years ago, we were the Tufuzi of Changsha, speaking of Tufuzi you should be a little unfamiliar, it is estimated that your grandfather will not tell you about his past, but unfortunately his craftsmanship has also been lost." Feng Jiu Ge sighed, as if he was very sorry for this matter, and then continued, "Tufuzi is what people often call tomb robbers, I have a special ability with your grandfather and your second master Xie, your grandfather and a strange person have learned the ability to see feng shui, find dragon points, and locate the underground palace are all hand-to-hand, most of the sand we dig is found by your grandfather, your second master's ability is to open locks and break the mechanism, Changsha's Tufuzi has not been able to come out of the second, your third master and I have the most no ability, that is, I am born with brute strength, and the robbery hole is my strength." , I can use Luoyang shovel to dig six meters without coming out for ventilation, the three of us brothers perform their duties and cooperate tacitly, over the years, we have obtained a lot of treasures, and we have no worries about food and clothing, but an incident twenty years ago completely changed our fate.

It was an autumn evening, your grandfather asked the guy to call me and your second master Xie to his house to discuss a major matter, Ouyang Nan, a wealthy man in Changsha, found your grandfather and said that he was willing to pay a huge amount of money for us to steal a big tomb, it is said that this tomb is not simple, it is actually a tomb during the Zhou Dynasty, if the treasure is stolen, we will divide it equally.

"Second brother, what do you think about this?" Boss Long looked at Second Brother Xie and asked.

You Xie Erye wears a Zhongshan suit all the year round, and he is also polite, people who don't know his identity definitely think that he is a teacher, he is thoughtful and thoughtful, Second Brother Xie thought about it and said, this Ouyang Nan is a local rich man, it should not be difficult to find someone to rob the tomb, although our brothers say that there are some means, but we are famous for being alone, and we never do things like selling people or clipping toads, but why does this Ouyang Nan have to look for us?

"The second brother is really a thoughtful person, this Ouyang Nan is not only interested in our craftsmanship, but also a treasure in my brother's hand." Boss Long said with a slight smile.

"Could it be the red-eyed spirit monkey raised by the eldest brother?" Second Brother Xie asked, and Boss Long hummed and acknowledged.

"It makes sense to think about it this way, this spirit monkey helped us avoid a lot of dangers in the ancient tomb, and pulled our brothers back from the ghost gate several times, if we take the spirit monkey to help, then we will have three points more certainty to rob this Western Zhou tomb." The second brother nodded and said.

"Big brother, when will this Ouyang Nan say that the money will be paid to us? Going to this Western Zhou Tomb is not a joke, there may be no return, you have to think carefully before making a decision. I couldn't help but ask anxiously.

"It's still our third wealth fan, don't worry, this Ouyang Nan promised that if we take this deal, he will pay us the money first, and when we get to the tomb, if there are treasures, he will account for half, and our brothers will account for half." Boss Long said with a laugh.

"This Ouyang Nan is a well-known old fox, how could he be so stupid to pay us first this time? I think we'll have to think about this in the long run, big brother. Second Brother Xie said a little worriedly.

"Well, I also thought of this, since this old fox dares to make such a big blood this time, one is that this ancient tomb must be dangerous and abnormal, and the other is that there must be something extraordinary in this ancient tomb, this is the tomb of the Western Zhou Dynasty, a place where artifacts can be produced, although our brothers are not short of money, but who doesn't want to see this ancient tomb? I remember that the farthest time we stole was the Xichu tomb ten years ago, although we died nine times a lifetime, but we really caught a lot of good things, and this spirit monkey got it from there. Boss Long said with some pride.

Feng Jiu Ge paused, took a sip of tea and continued, This matter of the Xichu Tomb, I will talk to you in detail when I have time, and now I will tell you about the matter of the Zhou Dynasty Tomb first, Boss Long explained to us the things to prepare, and then he went to determine the departure time with Ouyang Nan, and we set off in less than half a month.

Because the place I went to this time was very dangerous, my second brother and I were fully prepared, and it cost tens of thousands of dollars to buy equipment alone, which can be regarded as a bloody investment, but we received more money than this, in addition, Ouyang Nan, the old fox, is also generous, and he also paid for some difficult equipment, and he has a wide range of connections, and he also got a few Type 56 submachine guns, which also strengthens our confidence, even if there are any zongzi in the ancient tomb, the submachine gun sweeps over, I don't believe that it can't be broken, in order to cover people's eyes and ears, We hired three mule carts and disguised ourselves as merchants pulling goods, but at that time the transportation was not very developed, and the place we went to was relatively remote, and it took us about ten days to reach our destination.

Feng Jiu Ge looked at the time, it was almost close, and said that the time was not early, let's go to lunch first, and I will continue to tell you after eating. Xia Qi flashed her big eyes and said, "I said uncle, you used to tell stories, right?" This little story is also exciting, right? ”

Feng Jiuge smiled awkwardly, "Little girl, I told you from the beginning, although what I said was a bit bizarre, but it was true, besides, I didn't want you to listen to it, you had to listen to it here." ”

"You! You are disrespectful to the old and bully the children, you ...... Hum! Xia Qi was choked by the old man Feng and couldn't speak.

"Okay Kiki, don't make trouble, I believe what the third master said is true, grandpa once had a high fever and talked nonsense, what did the third brother be careful, this white-haired zongzi is amazing, see if I don't beat him! At the time, I just thought that my grandfather was talking nonsense, and my grandfather had never told me about the third master over the years, nor did he mention that he had any brothers, and I didn't know anything like zongzi, and I didn't go to my heart, and now it seems that my grandfather missed the third master too much. I pulled Xia Qi and said to Feng Jiuge.

"I didn't expect my eldest brother to always miss my brother, brother, why don't I miss you, it's been twenty years, I didn't expect you to leave me first, hey!" Feng Jiuge shook his head, stunned.

"I have a question for the third grandfather, first, why have you not been in touch with each other for so many years, and second, why do you know that I am here when you see the blood jade qilin?"

"Why are we apart for 20 years? It's all for you, Xiaotian, you don't know how bizarre your own life experience is, but now you look at your long appearance to know the truth, it seems that my worries with your grandfather are superfluous, I will tell you about your affairs later, as for this blood jade unicorn, it is obtained from the tomb of this Zhou Dynasty this time, there is no second blood unicorn like this in the world, we have experienced nine deaths and a lifetime from the tomb to get a total of three treasures, a blood jade unicorn, a blood jade phoenix, and a black gold dagger, the blood jade phoenix is in your second master, But after studying for so many years, he didn't come up with anything, that jade seems to be able to calm the nerves and ward off evil spirits, originally I got a black gold dagger, but for some reason there was suddenly no trace, and there was no sign of theft in my house, it was really evil. Feng Jiuge said angrily.

"Is this the black gold dagger you were talking about?" As I spoke, I took out my black gold dagger and handed it to Feng Jiuge.

"How can this dagger be in your hands? Where are you from? Feng Jiuge said in surprise.

"I don't know, this is what I found when I was sorting out my grandfather's relics, he locked it in an iron box with three things, a broken book, a dagger, and this blood jade unicorn."

"What a broken book, that's your grandfather's treasure "Yin and Yang Five Elements Feng Shui Tips", your grandfather's ability to find dragons and points is all learned from this book. You're not going to throw it away, are you? ”

"That's not true, I put it at home, I'm afraid I'll squeeze the broken book with me, I didn't expect such an old book to be a treasure." Long Xiaotian smiled awkwardly.

"Let's not talk about the book, this dagger was in it when you opened the box? Is there anything else? ”

"No, there are only three things in the box, this dagger is a bit weird, it doesn't look very eye-catching, it's not sharp, and it takes a lot of effort to even peel an apple."

"What? This is an ancient treasure, and you actually used it to peel apples? Feng Jiu Ge blew his beard and glared.

I smiled awkwardly, then pointed at Xia Qi and said, "It's not me who peels the apple, it's her who peels it." ”

Xia Qi's face turned red, but she was still unconvinced, "What a broken treasure, I want to know that you are something dug up from the ancient tomb, and I can't eat that apple in disgust!" ”

"You little girl, hey, I said eldest grandson, I don't agree with you to marry such a wife, you can't suffer if you're so rude?"

"Uh...... Third grandpa, don't talk nonsense, Kiki and I are just ordinary friends, we have only known each other for a month, and Kiki saved my life. I hurriedly explained, but I saw a hint of disappointment in Xia Qi's eyes.

"This dagger is really a bit weird, let's go eat first, and talk while eating, okay?" I added one more sentence.

Feng Jiu Ge took us to a restaurant near the antique city to sit down, I briefly described what happened at sea in the past few days, and after finishing speaking, Xia Qi's face turned pale, and the boss with a small mouth open, Feng Jiu Ge frowned and said, "So you were originally lost in this dagger, but it came back to you?"

"I think so, I remember I dropped it in that hold, and then the ship was blown up, and it should have fallen to the bottom of the sea." I'm also confused.

"If that's the case, then why this dagger is in your grandfather's place can be explained, this dagger came back there on its own." Feng Jiuge said thoughtfully.

"What? Came back on your own? After listening to this, I couldn't help but feel a little chill in my back, Xia Qi felt even more creepy, and a pair of big eyes looked at me strangely like looking at a monster.

"Ahem...... I said Kiki, what do you think I'm doing? Do I have something on my face? I said embarrassedly.

"There's nothing long, I'm just going to see if you're human, a little dagger follows you like a little tail all day long?" Xia Qi said with a grin.

"I'll talk about the dagger later, let's eat first, I'll look for Second Brother Xie when I go back, see if there is any progress in his research on the Blood Jade Phoenix, and by the way, let him know your little grandson, and let's go to the eldest brother's cemetery to pay respects." Feng Jiu Ge waved his hand and said, everyone was really hungry after saying it for a long time, and they didn't say anything more, they all buried their heads and feasted.
