In the past few days, it has been hot and humid, and I have been sweating all over my body while sitting still, and finally God finally held back a heavy rain, and the rain was smoking, and finally cooled down the hot city.

After the rain, the Panjiayuan antique market is bustling, and amateur collectors and antique lovers who have endured it at home for several days have rushed to exchange their gadgets.

The big golden tooth was busy talking to an old customer, and the fat man was selling our embroidered shoes to a pair of blue-eyed and big-nosed foreign couples, and the fat man said to the two foreigners, "How is it?" You take your nose and smell the inside of these shoes, which is the same smell as your American Monroe, which is the fragrant shoes worn by Monroe in the Ming Dynasty of China, the name ...... Do you understand famous prostitutes? ”

This foreign couple, who know a little Chinese, is obviously very interested in this delicately shaped oriental embroidered shoes, and the fat man took the opportunity to open his mouth and ask for 20,000 yuan, which frightened the two foreigners to turn their heads and leave. Foreigners who often come to China know how to bargain, and when the fat man saw that the foreign couple did not know how to bargain, he knew that they were the first time to come back to China, so he quickly stopped them back, claiming that in order to promote exchanges between China and foreign countries, he could give them a discount on the premise of adhering to the five basic principles of peaceful coexistence.

I sat on the sidelines and smoked a cigarette, having no interest in the lively scenes in the antique market, and after returning from Shaanxi, I went to the hospital to check it, and I didn't find anything special on the traces on my and the fat man's back, and I didn't find anything special, and I didn't check out any disease.

And I don't feel anything special. Recently, the money is rolling, the business is doing very prosperous, we brought back the fragrant jade rough from Shaanxi, sold a dream to wake up with a smile at a good price, and received a few genuine Ming ware, almost every one, the profit is several times. However, when I think of Professor Sun's words, I feel that there is a big mountain behind me, and I can't breathe, and every time I think of this, I am worried, and I can't be interested in anything.

That hateful, hypocritical Professor Sun refused to tell me what the meaning of this symbol was, and he was the only one who could master the technology of deciphering ancient encrypted characters, but I couldn't force him to say it.

Although the batch of keels unearthed by Gu Lan was destroyed, Professor Sun must have kept the bottom in advance. How can I think of a way to go to Shaanxi to find him and come over to have a look, as long as I can be sure that the mark on my back has nothing to do with the eyeballs of the Ghost Cave of the Exquisite Country, I can rest assured. But in the course of that conversation, as soon as I mentioned the word "ghost cave", Professor Sun went crazy, so much so that I never dared to tell him about the ghost cave again.

The more Professor Sun concealed and pushed, the more I think it had something to do with the exquisite ghost cave. Since I obviously want Professor Sun to refuse to give it to me, then I have to do something, I can't live my life with an eyeball red spot like this.

Summer is a season when it is easy to doze off, and I used to sit on a lounger and watch things in case I was taken away by the Buddha (thief), but my mind was so cranky that I fell asleep unconsciously.

I had a series of strange dreams, and at first, I dreamed that I had married a mute girl as my wife, and she told me to take her to the movies. Somehow, we went to the cinema and went in without a ticket, and the movie was played without beginning or end, and we couldn't see where it was, except for the explosion and the landslide. As I played, my mute wife and I found that the movie theater had become a cave, and the cave was hazy, as if there was a bottomless abyss, and I was shocked and hurriedly told my dumb wife, no, this place is a bottomless ghost cave deep in the desert, let's run. But my mute wife was indifferent and suddenly pushed me into the ghost cave, and I fell into the depths of the ghost cave, and there was a huge eye staring at me at the bottom of the hole......

Suddenly, my nose was cold, as if someone had pinched me, and I woke up from my dream to see a figure that seemed to be very familiar standing in front of me. The man was pinching my nose with his fingers, and as soon as I opened my eyes, I was just in the eye with hers, and I had dreamed of a terrible huge eye, but before I had fully awakened, I suddenly saw a man looking at me, and I was startled, and I almost rolled off the chair.

Looking at it, Shirley Yang was standing in front of him, the fat man and the big gold tooth were laughing next to him and almost couldn't straighten their waists, and the fat man laughed and said, "Old Hu, what about daydreaming, right?" The saliva is dripping, it must be a dream to marry a daughter-in-law. ”

The big golden tooth said to me, "Hu Ye is awake? Isn't this Miss Yang just coming from the United States? Said that I was looking for you in an emergency. ”

Shirley Yang handed me a handkerchief: "It's only been a few days since I saw you, what's wrong with you?" The saliva is flowing into a river, wipe it quickly. ”

I didn't take her handkerchief, wiped it with my sleeve, then stretched hard, rubbed my eyes, and then said to Shirley Young in a daze, "Your eyes...... Hey, that's right! At this time, my drowsiness had completely disappeared, and I suddenly thought of the red spots in the shape of the eyeballs on my back, and hurriedly said to Shirley Yang: "By the way, I was thinking about how to find you these days, and I had some important things to tell you." ”

Shirley Young said to me, "I also have something important to do. It's too noisy here, let's find a quiet place to talk. ”

I quickly got up from the chair, let the fat man and the big gold tooth continue to take care of the business, and went with Shirley Yang to a Longtan Park near the antique market.

Longtan Park had not been rebuilt at that time, the scale was not large, even on holidays, there were not many tourists, Shirley Yang pointed to a stone bench in a quiet place by the lake and said, "It's very good here, let's sit down here and talk." ”

I said to Shirley Young, "Usually people who are engaged in pressing the road sit here, and if you don't avoid suspicion, I'm fine." It's a nice little place, just the right date. ”

Shirley Young, who was born and raised in the United States, and although he had lived in the Chinese community for a long time, he didn't quite understand what I meant, and asked, "What?" Are you saying that only couples in love are allowed to sit by the lake? ”

I thought to myself that the cultural backgrounds of the two countries are too different, and this is complicated to explain, so I said: "The people sit on the people's country, and whoever sits on the bench in this park sits or not, let's just leave it alone." So saying, he sat down.

I asked Shirley Young, "Is Professor Chan well?" ”

Shirley Yang sat down next to me, sighed and said, "The professor is still being treated in the United States, he is too stimulated, and there is not much progress in the treatment at present. ”

I was also sad to hear that Professor Chen's condition was still not improving, and after a few casual chats with Shirley Yang, I got down to business, of course, not for me to pay back, but for the sudden appearance of eyeball erythema on my back, as I expected.

Not only me and the fat man, but also Shirley Yang and Professor Chen also had this strange thing in them. On that trip to Xinjiang, a total of five people survived, in addition to the four of us, there was also a guide, the old fox in the desert An Liman, did he also have this kind of red spots on his body?

Shirley Yang said: "Grandpa Anliman's body should not appear, because he has never seen a ghost cave. I think this mark must have some connection with the eyeballs of the Ghost Cave Clan. ”

There are too many secrets about that mysterious race that have not been revealed, but these untold secrets, including the ghost cave that leads to nowhere, have been buried forever under the yellow sand, never to be seen again.

I told Shirley Yang about some of the things I learned from Professor Sun in Gulan, Shaanxi, and maybe she could make some judgment from it about whether this symbol was a curse brought to us by the ghost cave.

Shirley Yang listened and said, "Professor Sun...... Is his name Sun Yaozu? His name is very prestigious in the Western archaeological community, and he is one of the few experts in the world who decipher ancient characters, and is good at deciphering ancient symbols, ancient ciphers, and ancient encrypted graphic information. I had read his books and knew that he and Professor Chan were friends, but I had no chance to meet him personally. In 1981, a number of cultural relics were unearthed in the tomb of King Garothai Pfa in Egypt, among which there was a scepter carved with many pictograms, and many experts could not judge the meaning of the symbols. A French expert who knew Sun Yaozu wrote to him for help, and obtained Professor Sun's valuable advice, and finally judged that this scepter was the staff of the Yellow Spring engraved with the words of the underworld in ancient Egyptian legends. This discovery shocked the whole world at the time, and Professor Sun has been famous all over the world ever since. If he says that this symbol is not an eye, but some kind of symbolic diagram, I think that must be very reasonable. ”

I was secretly speechless, I couldn't imagine Professor Sun's strange temper, dressed like a peasant, but he was such a person with status, and the sea water was really incomprehensible. I asked Shirley Yang: "I think this is a symbol or a word, and the most important thing is whether it is good or bad?" Does it have anything to do with that damn ruin in the Elite Country? ”

Shirley Young said: "I have found some eyebrows in the United States, do you remember the prophet Apocalypse in the Zagrama Mountains? One of the four survivors mentioned above is a descendant of the Prophets, and that person is indeed me. My grandfather died when I was seventeen years old, and he left so suddenly that he didn't say anything. On this trip back to the United States, I looked through some of his relics, including a notebook, and found many amazing clues that fully proved the authenticity of the prophet's book of revelation. ”

It seems that things are going in the direction I am most worried about, I am really afraid of something, that nightmare-like ghost hole, I can't avoid it, but it sticks to my body like a dog's skin plaster. Are we cursed by the Peerless Ancient Kingdom? Hasn't that ancient city, along with the whole of Zagrama, been permanently buried by the sand?

Shirley Young said, "It's not a curse, but it's more troublesome than a curse, Zagrama...... I'll tell you what I know from the beginning. ”
