"Huh?!" I couldn't believe my ears, the whole person instantly seemed to be frozen, an inexplicable cold feeling from the soles of my feet to the top of my head, my mouth was just open and closed, but I couldn't say half a word.

Shanzi stared at Na He Shibi stupidly, and then looked at me again, his mouth opening into a circle.

"No, it won't, right?" He looked at Shangguan Yunchu again, "He's Bi? ”

Shanzi's reaction was fast, and he began to shake his head slowly, "No, absolutely not, He's Bi should be round, but it's an oval!" ”

Shanzi's words pulled me back from my shock, yes, the shape is not right, besides, isn't the legend and the family bi made into the jade seal of Qin Shi Huang?

But Shangguan Yunchu said to us: "It is just a legend that He's bi is made into a jade seal. And He's Bi is indeed round, and this oval shape is made by the day after tomorrow. ”

He pointed to the small rectangle in the middle with his hand, "There is a small hole in the middle of He's Bi, and here, it was also processed into this shape the day after tomorrow." ”

The two of us looked around the He's Bi on the table, and we really couldn't believe that this was He's Bi, and what puzzled us even more was why it became the way it is.

"It should be part of something else." Shangguan Yunchu said confidently, "I have encountered similar things before, the things dug up from the wreck have strange shapes and textures, and I started to think that they are not cultural relics with great research value, but as the cleanup work progresses, I know that the role of these things is very great." ”

He was afraid that we would not understand, and then added, "It's like a part of a machine." ”

He gently stroked He's Bi with his hand, his expression became very peaceful, and his eyes were slightly closed, as if he was feeling the jade plate with his heart.

"The two treasures of spring and autumn, and the pearl follows the pearl, and the jade bi appears, and it will come out with the Hou." Shangguan Yunchu opened his eyes and said such a sentence coldly.

Shanzi didn't hear clearly at all, and then he turned his face and asked me, "What, what beads?" ”

I have understood the two treasures of the Spring and Autumn Period in Shangguan Yunchu's mouth, in addition to He's Bi, the other one is Suihou Zhu.

"Follow Hou Zhu. Legend is that the monarch of Suiguo Suihou, on the way to see an injured snake, Suihou asked people to give the snake medicine bandage, the snake healed and gave a night pearl to Suihou as a reward, this snake is actually the dragon prince. ”

I told Shanzi the story, but he didn't react much, "Oh, a legend, I thought it was important information." ”

After saying that, Shanzi leaned over to look at He's Bi on the table.

Shangguan Yunchu turned to look at me and said, "There is a rumor that when He Shibi appears, Sui Hou Zhu will also appear." ”

"Housheng, this matter is not trivial, what you have experienced is related to these things, although I can't see a clue yet, but it will slowly come to light."

He raised his head again, crossed his hands on his chest, and looked at me with a determined look, "As long as you keep an eye on Zhao Yin, this matter will be much easier." ”

"Hmm." I nodded, I couldn't help but admire his wisdom, when a matter is very tricky, as long as the heart is not messy, grasp the end, the whole thing will be slowly solved like a cocoon.

At this time, Shanzi turned around and asked Shangguan Yunchu, "What about this and Shibi?" ”

"I'd better put you there first." Unexpectedly, Shangguan Yunchu's mouth did not say anything like handing it over to the Cultural Relics Bureau.

He saw our doubts, and then said to the two of us with a serious expression: "Since this is a part of a thing, it has its effect, if you protect it now, there is a great possibility that the last thing will be meaningless, and besides, if Zhao Yin knows that the thing is no longer in your hands, then you are very dangerous." ”

I understood what he meant, but it was against his original intentions, and it was a very cruel decision for him.

"With it here with you, Suihou Zhu will definitely appear, can it be that Suihou Zhu is also a part of the whole? For the sake of that secret, it's worth it! Shangguan Yunchu then looked at us with his eyes again, and his eyes were full of majesty, "But you must ensure its safety, remember, this piece of jade is not from anyone, it is from the state." ”

I knew what he meant, and I understood the weight on the shoulders of Shanzi and me, and I wondered why he was so confident in that huge secret that he had left it to both of us to protect.

"I feel like this secret is a big thing, and it might be related," he said, pausing again, his eyes wandering, and he didn't continue.

He immediately changed the content of his words, "Although you two are ordinary people, you protect the cultural relics of our country regardless of whether they are high or low. If you let the relevant agencies use other people to follow and arrest them, as I said at the beginning, you will never know the secret. ”

Shanzi nodded as if he didn't understand, and I didn't speak, expressing my acquiescence.

Shangguan Yunchu rewrapped the Heshi Bi, and then picked up the bronze medal of the Falcon again, looking at it over and over, "Gong Falcon Dou, this is also taken out from under the sea?" ”

"Yes, the ancient corpse of the Falcon was resurrected and burned to death by us." I said to him with some disappointment, "Hayabusa was a former school commander and an official in charge of construction. ”

"Hmm." He looked at the bronze plaque, "According to your statement, You Ming is buried in the Nine Dragons Valley, and that is the fierce enemy of the Qin Dynasty, how can this falcon receive a secret order to build a tomb for the enemies of his country?" ”

Shanzi and I both shook our heads, if we knew why, would we need to work so hard.

He saw that we didn't answer, only to realize that his question was the same as not asking, and he put the bronze medal back on the table, "It's so rusty, why isn't there a chromium silver oxidation anti-rust technology on it?" ”

I looked at the patina on the bronze medals, which were still not peeling, "Maybe it's because the bronze medals aren't important, unlike those weapons or something." ”

Speaking of weapons, I suddenly remembered the copper beryllium, I pulled it out at once and showed it to Shangguan Yunchu.

"This is the bronze beryllium?" He stretched out his hand to take it, his eyes looked at the top of the beryllium in surprise, and the corners of his mouth began to rise, "Okay, good!" It's so well preserved, there's not even a trace of rust! ”

The edge of the bronze beryllium is still emitting cold light, and the dark lines on the beryllium body are faint in the light, it is like a mighty warrior, from the moment it comes out, it has always wanted to kill the enemy on the battlefield.

He moved his glasses to his forehead and looked at the words from a distance, "Fifteen years of temple workers." Well, it's the same as the one unearthed from the Mausoleum of the First Emperor. ”

But as soon as he finished speaking, there seemed to be a fire on the bronze beryllium.

"Huh? It's hot! Shangguan Yunchu's hands trembled, as if they had been burned.

But he didn't throw the beryllium away at once, but endured the pain in his palm and slowly put the copper beryllium on the table.

I knew where the temperature came from, it was Changlin's lava fire, I raised my hand and picked up the copper beryllium, and its temperature slowly dropped.

"How strange!" Shangguan Yunchu looked at me in surprise, his eyes full of doubts.

"I don't know why." I told him that I was also amazed to look at the copper beryllium.

"The next life, this is the will of heaven, take it with you, it still belongs to you for the time being." Shangguan Yunchu's expression became relaxed, and he could see that he was a little pleased, "It is connected with you, besides, you can also use it to resist for a while in a critical situation, so you can defend yourself." ”

This bronze beryllium is not only resisting, since he came to my hands, he has already made great achievements, stabbed the tiger Jiao, killed the one-horned horse, and cut off the iron rope on Chang Lin's body, and finally cut off You Ming's head, then in the Qin Dynasty, how many enemies had to be killed with thousands of ordinary blades like copper beryllium!

"However," Shangguan Yunchu slowly put his hands behind his back, and said in a calm but stern tone: "Article 5 of the Law of the People's Republic of China on the Protection of Cultural Relics stipulates that all cultural relics left in the ground, internal waters and territorial waters within the territory of the People's Republic of China belong to the state. ”

Listening to his words, I was taken aback, I didn't want to take the copper beryllium for myself, I really admired Shangguan Yunchu's rigor in doing things, an old man in his old age, he could blurt out the letter of the law, he was not selling his memory, this was his spirit, the spirit of protecting the country's cultural relics.

"Master Shangguan, I remember: all cultural relics left in the ground, internal waters, and territorial waters within the territory of the People's Republic of China belong to the state. I will borrow this copper beryllium for the time being, and when the matter is done, it and He's Bi will be returned to Zhao. Then I stared into his eyes and patted my chest, "I promise." ”

"Hahaha" he suddenly laughed, there was praise and expectation in that laughter, "The wall is a thousand people, no desire is rigid, the next life, if you want to do this, it depends on your will." ”

After speaking, he glanced at Shanzi, "I trust you two, and I hope you two can trust me." If something happens, be sure to come to me. In the early years, I was doing water business, in the dark, then in archaeology, in the light, I experienced everything. ”

After saying that, he stretched out his hands, one towards me and the other towards Shanzi.

We were both confused by his movements, and we both looked at him in a daze.

"Bring it."

"What?" Shanzi touched his head.

"You two weapons for self-defense."

"You didn't say no!" As soon as Shanzi heard his words, he began to get anxious.

I took out the bronze beryllium and touched the mountain with my arm.

Shangguan Yunchu took the horn and bronze beryllium handed over by the two of us, and then said to us, "You two go back first, and take care of your injuries." With that, he walked to the door and gently opened the door.

"What about ours?" Shanzi was not worried about his horns.

"You will pick up these two things in three days."

After dinner that night, Shanzi and I sat in the courtyard of the stone factory, smoking cigarettes and chatting about recent events.

The last time we chatted like this, it was at the man's house in Guangxi, although the time was not long, but I felt that it was so long.

Shanzi took a sharp puff of cigarette, and then spit out a circle in his eyes, "Do you think that old man Shangguan seems to have something to do, hiding it?" ”
