Driven by the mood of the Lantern Festival, I gradually became excited, so I agreed. I asked the guy in the store to talk to my second uncle, and then I took the car home.

In the next two days, I packed up and made arrangements and told my parents that I was going to go out with Lantern Festival for a few days, and they were supportive, thinking that it was better to go out and broaden my horizons than to stay at home every day. My mom gave me a lot of cash, and my dad even gave me a credit card... I'll go! How much you want me out!

Two days later, I got on the train to Beijing. On the train, I turned on my phone and found a new email. Who's going to email me? Eighty percent is an advertisement again, and while thinking, I clicked on it casually.

This email is very strange, it comes up with a photo. It's pitch black in the photo, and you can't see anything.

I continued to look down, and there were eight words written at the bottom of the email: Taoguang Qilian, hidden pearls.

What does that mean? I just don't understand.

This is a very strange email, I can't help but look at the phone in a daze, and my heart is puzzled, especially the black photo, which actually makes me feel like I am being spied on.

After looking at it for a while, gradually, I realized that something was wrong with that photo. I hurriedly turned up the brightness of my phone to the highest level, and then lowered it to avoid the light.

Suddenly, I realized that the picture was not completely black, but had two dark red dots of light, floating up and down.

What is it? Red lanterns?

I pondered for a while, slowly turned the phone 90 degrees, and found that it was not a red lantern at all, it was clearly two eyes! Two red eyes in the dark! Cold and mysterious! Makes me shudder!

Whose prank must be this! Uncle's! I cursed and closed the mailbox. I was a little distracted, so I looked out the window at the scenery to distract myself.

Today's train technology is so advanced that it used to take at least three hours to get to Beijing, but now it only takes one hour to take the high-speed train. got off the train and contacted the Lantern Festival, this kid moved really fast, and the tickets were bought. After meeting, I found that the Lantern Festival is really getting longer and more like the Lantern Festival, I haven't seen him for two years, and this kid has gained a lot of weight. I was very happy to see each other again, and I could see that Lantern Festival was also very excited, and gave me a hug, which made my heart warm.

We didn't have time to catch up too much, so we drove to the airport. We chatted happily along the way, and each asked about the other's recent situation, and I needless to say, Lantern Xiao has been helping his father run an antique store for the past two years, and now he is on his own. Now I am more or less an insider, and when it comes to antique collections, it is really a set.

I quipped, "You kid can do it now, an expert in collecting!" You can all be on your own! ”

"Hey." Lantern Xiao waved his hand, "Let me tell you, the antique collection industry is not easy to do now, how can there be so many good things circulating in the market, the real good things are in the hands of big collectors, and people will not take them out easily." The vast majority of the market is wasteland, and the best ones are parallel goods or even thieves, but it is not easy to say whether it is open or not. Speaking of this, Lantern Xiao subconsciously lowered her voice and said: "If you want to talk about the real pressure hall, you have to say that it is a ghost!" ”

"I'll go!" I heard in the clouds, "Please speak Chinese!" ok？ ”

Lantern Xiao grinned when she heard this, "Haha, I'm sorry, I've been used to it for the past two years, and I haven't changed it for a while." Lantern Xiao told me that this "wild goods" refers to things collected from the mountains or the countryside, which are large in number, but it is difficult to distinguish between the real and the fake. "Parallel goods" are simply smuggled goods. "Thieves" are not difficult to understand, they are stolen. "Open the door" means genuine goods. And "ghost goods" refers to the underworld artifact, which was taken out of the ancient tomb.

It's really TM long knowledge, so I can talk like a foreign language. I opened my mouth and asked, "Then you have ghost goods on the goods this time?" ”

"Who knows, let's go. However, there is a rule for collecting antiques, that is, never inquire about the source of the goods. ”

I suddenly remembered one thing, "Why did you go it alone?" Wouldn't it be easier to enter a family business? ”

Lantern Xiao shook her head, "There are too many intrigues here!" I'm too lazy to deal with this kind of thing! I don't have any big pursuits, just enough to eat and flowers. ”

I understand that if you want to be a master of a big family like the Tang family, the competition within the family is very fierce, and it is really a turbulent undercurrent, and I can understand that Lantern Festival does this.

"Then if you pull me as a layman, I can't help you get on you!"

Lantern Xiao smiled, "I have already contacted Uncle Kong over there in Gansu, and he will help me." And you don't necessarily can't help me, I know you're also studying ancient times... What kind of technology came from in ancient times, I damn it, I can't remember what kind of specialty you have! ”

I rolled my eyes, "It's ancient civil engineering technology!" ”

"Ahh Right! Lantern Xiao slapped her head, "I think your profession is also related to ancient times, and you may know something about this kind of ancient thing." ”

Damn, I said in my heart, you really think of me!

Lantern Xiao patted me, "Anyway, you should just accompany your buddies to travel and relax." ”

I listened and nodded, and it turned out that we had thought it simple at that time, and some unusual signs had emerged, but they had not been brought to our attention.

Arriving at the airport, less than 30 minutes before the plane took off, we hurriedly boarded the plane.

After sitting down, I was about to turn off my phone, but I remembered the weird photo in the email, so I involuntarily opened it again.

Lantern Xiao turned his head, "What are you looking at?" As he spoke, he took my phone, "What is this?" Lantern Xiao also frowned.

At this time, a beautiful flight attendant walked up to us, "Hello sir, the plane is taking off soon, please turn off your mobile phone, thank you for your cooperation!" ”

Lantern Xiao was taken aback, raised his head and opened his mouth to scold, when he saw the beautiful face of the flight attendant, an obscene smile instantly hung on his face, "Okay, I'll close it, but your plane is fragile enough, I can threaten such a big guy with a small mobile phone, if I am a hijacker, I don't need a weapon, just open the mobile phone." You guys work very hard, you're always flying around......" Lantern Xiao turned off his mobile phone. The faces of other flight attendants are green, and I guess I have never seen such a broken passenger. I glared at Lantern Festival next to me, and said in my heart that I hadn't seen it for two years, and the problem of Lantern Festival had not changed at all. For the white eyes of the flight attendant, Lantern Xiao chose to turn a blind eye.

Along the way, we recalled the campus time of the year, chatted about the recent situation of the students, and more than two hours passed quickly.
