Chapter 30, Bedside Note

Jiao Ba and I quietly returned to the cabin, when I went back to the rest room, I paid attention to Jenny and Mai Lao's room, the hatch door was closed very tightly, Jiao Ba and I listened to the door for a while, Jenny and Li Xin's room did not make any sound.

And Mai Lao's room is a slight snoring, this old man lives with the helmsman, and there is also a rest room, which is where the maintenance worker and a few other sailors live, there is still no abnormality, in fact, I know very well in my heart, Jiao Ba and I are blind and blind horses now, just wasting time here, what can you hear outside the door? Perhaps the man in black was standing behind the hatch, and neither of us knew either.

Or hide in a corner and watch us, and when we let our guard down, kill us directly, but this person's heart is always conflicted, so when we didn't hear anything, the two of us returned to our rest room.

There was still snoring in the rest room, it was dark inside, I took a flashlight and shone it around, and suddenly found that Junko's bed was empty, I turned my head to look at Jiao Ba, and asked in a low voice, "Where's Junko?" ”

Jiao Ba shook his head stupidly and said, "How do I know, hasn't he always been with you." ”

"Was he there when you came out?" Because I'm pretty sure that the straight was still there when I left, I was afraid that as soon as I walked with the front foot, the straight followed with the back foot, although I didn't want to doubt him, but now in this situation, I can't believe anyone.

Jiao Ba said in my ear embarrassedly, "I don't know, I just paid attention to you, and I didn't pay attention to him at all." ”

", get out there and have a look." When we turned around and were about to leave, the hatch was pushed open, and I took a flashlight to shine it, it was Junko, who looked sleepy-eyed and hazy, and was blocking the bright light of the flashlight with his hand.

"Why are you going in the middle of the night?" I asked angrily.

"I'm going to the toilet, what else can I do, Brother Yi, what are you two going to do? I'll wake up and see you're both gone, huh? Why are you so wet? Went to the sea? "Jiao Ba and I haven't had time to rub our bodies in a hurry, and Junko can see it at a glance.

I quickly snorted and said, "Oh, nothing, it's hot, went out and took a shower." "I really want to smack my mouth after saying this, who is idle and has nothing to do in the middle of the night to bathe in the sea to play, besides, the salt of the sea is too much, and I can't take a bath at all.

Junko may also be in a daze, but she didn't react, "Oh, then I'll continue to sleep, you guys should go to bed early." He went back to his bed, collapsed, and went back to sleep.

I glanced at Jiao Ba, he pouted and shook his head, indicating that he didn't see anything wrong, the two of us wiped the seawater on our bodies, changed into clean clothes, and fell to sleep, this night, I slept very unsteadily, I always dreamed of the female corpse some time ago, but tonight I have been dreaming of the man in black, he asked for my life several times.

I couldn't see who he was, but his feline-like eyes, I firmly remembered, they were the most terrifying eyes I have ever seen, in the dream, he kept chasing me, I kept running, kept running, but he just wouldn't let me go, he seemed to need that piece of jade pendant, and kept shouting, 'Give me something, give me something.'" I was clever, slowly opened my hazy eyes, and found that I was still lying in the rest pod, it was very quiet all around, there was nothing but snoring, I rolled over and got out of bed, and closed the hatch, I was really a little scared, I was afraid that the man in black would kill me while I was asleep.

But when I got back to the bed, I suddenly found a note next to my bed, and I picked up the note in wonder and looked at it, and I was shocked when I didn't realize it, and it said, 'It's in your hand, right?' Put it away, if you lose it, your life will be gone. After reading these words, cold sweat began to flow down my forehead, and I felt chills all over my body, this must have been left by the man in black, was he reminding me? Could it be that the dream just now is real? The man in black had been standing next to me, and my scalp tingled when I thought about it, and if he wanted my life, I don't know how many times I would have died.

I sat on the bed with a note in my hand, carefully thinking about everything that happened, after thinking about it, I only came to one conclusion, that is, he will not kill me for the time being, the note also says, as long as I keep the thing, my life will be temporarily saved, that thing should be the jade pendant, it seems that the man in black has long known the life of the female corpse.

Who is he? What is the purpose of this trip? Things are really getting more and more complicated, it has completely exceeded my imagination, it seems that it will take some effort to lift this veil, since he wants to play, then I will play with him to the end.

I lit a cigarette and smoked quietly, lying on the bed with my eyes closed, and I didn't sleep much until dawn, I spent it in a daze.

Early in the morning, everyone came to the deck to gather, Jenny asked Jiao Ba to check the salvaged things, so as to finally determine whether the ship was a shipwreck in the Yongle period, although Jiao Ba said that the female corpse was from the early Ming Dynasty, but it does not mean that the shipwreck is also.

As for what happened last night, I didn't mention it to Jiao Bazi, I deliberately paid attention to everyone's height and characteristics, but I still didn't find anything similar to the man in black, could it be that the man in black was not on our boat? So where can he hide? I can't figure it out.

"Zhongyi, seeing that your face is not very good, didn't you rest last night, okay?" Mai Lao came over and asked me with a smile.

"Oh, it's nothing, the sea breeze has been a bit strong lately, maybe I'm catching a cold." I casually said perfunctory.

"It's okay, let's go over and see what was salvaged." I nodded, and went with Mai Lao.

Jiao Ba was looking at the salvaged porcelain and silver ingots at this moment, while Mai Lao and I were watching, and it could be seen that we were all waiting for the final result.

Jiao Ba looked very carefully, almost not a single porcelain fell, and after more than an hour, he put down a vase in his hand, with a very helpless expression on his face, frowning and pouting, and slowly shaking his head, his move was very inexplicable.

Jenny looked at Jiao Ba's expression and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" Is there anything wrong? ”

Jiao Ba moved his arm, slowly stood up and said, "You may be disappointed, this shipwreck, let alone the Yongle period, I don't think it is from the Ming Dynasty." ”

"Huh? Why? This sentence is almost the same as a few of us, I am also very puzzled, the coffin female corpse is not to say, just say that the porcelain brought out by Mai Lao a few days ago, and also showed it to Jiao Ba, at that time he also said that it was during the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty, but now he said that it was not, the big guy must be in a hurry, and I am more confused.

Jiao Ba picked up a porcelain and said, "This vase, on the surface, should belong to the sweet white porcelain of the Yongle period, but in fact, it is something from the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, if it is a shipwreck of the Ming Dynasty, how can there be cultural relics of the Qing Dynasty." ”

Junko casually took the sweet white vase in his hand, looked at it and said, "No, isn't it written under this Yongle year?" How can you say that it was from the Qianlong period? Old eight, are you fooling us? "Jiao Ba, the grandson, is scheming and has all kinds of ideas, and Junzi is still a little skeptical of his words.

Jiao Ba just smiled and didn't answer his words, but I was a little frowning in my heart, I took the vase in Shunzi's hand, looked at it carefully, Jenny and Mai Lao were also watching from the side, I said softly, "In the early Ming Dynasty, especially in the Yongle period, whether it is an official kiln or a private kiln, most of the porcelain does not write the year name, if I remember correctly, the porcelain of the Ming Dynasty, with the year name or system number at the bottom, should start from Emperor Xuande." ”

"Brother Yi is really Brother Yi, although I'm not sure if it started with Xuande, but one thing I can be sure of is that the porcelain made in the Yongle period will never have an era name at the bottom, which will definitely not be wrong, especially the sweet white porcelain, it is impossible to have it, and the color of this vase is very different from the porcelain produced in the Yongle period, and the layman does not understand, it is easy to be taken seriously." Jiao Ba explained with a half-smile, although his smile was very annoying, but I have to admit that this grandson's ability to identify antiques is really strong.
