Lantern Xiao pushed me from behind, "Brother Ran, let's go, let's push the door open and have a look." ”

"Your uncle's Lantern Festival, you want to open the door, why are you pushing me! Go for yourself! ”

"I was scared just now, and I haven't slowed down yet, you go to me first, in case there's another scaring thing inside!"

"I'm not going, I'm not curious, whoever is curious will go!" In fact, I knew in my heart that there was no point in putting a scare thing like a grimace when I got here. If there is a secret calculation mechanism, then the secret passage more than 20 meters in front should appear. So I'm guessing that the door should be safe.

When the two of us were arguing here, Kong Xue said coldly, "If you want to enter, you can enter, if you are crooked, is it a man!" ”

At this time, Lantern Xiao and I united the battle and said in unison: "Why don't you go!" ”

"I'm a woman, if I rush to the front, where will your face go!" Saying that, Kong Xue looked at me and Lantern Xiao with her hands on her shoulders.

As soon as Lantern Xiao wanted to speak, she heard the iron door behind her squeak open, and Lantern Xiao was so frightened that she shrank her neck. We turned around and saw that it was Shi Tao, who had carefully pushed the door open, checked it, and signaled that we were safe inside.

Lantern Xiao saw it and pushed open the iron door, "Brother Tao, you are really good!" ”

We walked into the secret room, which wasn't very spacious, but there was a lot of stuff. Around the inside of the room is a circle of shelves, which are filled with all kinds of antique jade celebrity calligraphy and paintings. I don't know it, but it's a boutique at first glance.

Lantern Xiao is an expert in this area, and he was dumbfounded all of a sudden, "I'll go!" You have so many good things in your house! Can you give me two? Lantern Xiao said as he looked around, and took it down from time to time to play with it.

Kong Xue snatched it back from Lantern Xiao's hand and put it back in place, "Don't move, I'll put you here if you break it!" I said you don't have anything else in your brain besides the artifact. I'm telling you, if you can help me find my dad this time, don't let you have two, I'll give you two, but if you can't find it, you don't want anything! ”

"That's what you said! Gentleman... Ah no, it's hard for a woman to chase a horse! As soon as Lantern Xiao heard that there was a big bargain, he immediately became excited, and shouted at me: "Brother Ran, Brother Tao, you can testify!" ”

Shi Tao smiled and didn't make a sound, but at this time, I was firmly attracted by something on the shelf in the middle of the room.

This thing is actually a bit strange, this is a bronze statue, the statue of a horse stepping on the head of a snake with a swallow-shaped crown on the head of the snake, and one of the horse's hooves is stepping on the crown of the snake. Why is this statue so familiar! I think I've seen it somewhere! After looking at it for a long time, it dawned on me. I stretched out one hand flat, blocking part of my vision, revealing only the snake crown and the bronze horse, damn it! This shape, this is a horse stepping on the swallow!

But the real horse stepping on Feiyan is now hidden in the Gansu Museum! What is this thing? Is it an imaginary handicraft processed on the basis of horse stepping on the swallow?

Lantern Xiao saw that I was distracted here, so she asked, "Brother Ran, why are you stunned here?" ”

Seeing this, Kong Xue next to her also walked over, and when she saw my expression, she said, "How is it?" Doesn't it look familiar? ”

I nodded, "The above half is obviously a national treasure-level cultural relic!" Is this a handicraft of horses stepping on swallows? ”

"No!" Kong Xue shook her head. Kong Xue's next words surprised me! I only heard Kong Xue say slowly: "This is the prototype of Ma Ta Feiyan, and the museum is an imitation!" ”

"What!" I was stunned. "How is this possible? If it was an imitation, it would have been seen a long time ago, and those cultural relics experts in the Palace Museum are not vegetarians! ”

Kong Xue walked over slowly and gently touched this... This... Well, I later learned that they called it: Horse Trample Snake, what a straightforward name! Kong Xue's eyes showed a look of nostalgia, "The first time I saw this thing was when I was only a few years old, because it was very strange, so I was very impressed. At that time, my mother was still alive. Dad just got this thing and excitedly showed it to me and Mom. At that time, our family was so happy. Speaking of this, Kong Xue's eyes turned red, I wanted to comfort me, but the style of painting changed too quickly, and it suddenly changed from a horror movie to a family emotional drama, I didn't turn the corner for a while, and I didn't know what to say.

I only heard Kong Xue continue: "But I remember that day, when we looked at it, Dad seemed to see something, suddenly became a little nervous, and hurriedly put things away. I haven't seen this thing since, and I didn't expect to see it again today. ”

"Well, you said just now that this is a prototype, and the museum is an imitation, what's the matter?" I couldn't let go of the doubts in my heart and asked again.

Shi Tao next to me told me, "In fact, imitations are also divided into ancient imitations and modern imitations. Needless to say, it is a fake, and it is worthless. But antiques are different. Now the horse stepping on Feiyan in the museum is not fake, more than 1,800 years ago, there is no problem with this, so you can't say that he is fake, but this horse stepping snake was found in the tomb of the early Western Han Dynasty. And its earliest record appears in a Qin Dynasty silk book. ”

"You mean, someone in the Eastern Han Dynasty, for some reason, imitated part of this Western Han horse snake? But how do you know that this is from the tomb of the Western Han Dynasty? "I'm still a little skeptical.

Shi Tao smiled mysteriously, "Because I was in that ancient tomb at the time!" ”

"I'll go!" I took two steps back, and said in my heart, I just figured out their identities, it turns out that they are not only antique dealers, but also tomb robbers, no wonder they dare not call the police! But I thought about it again, no! Now that I know who they are, will they kill me!

As if seeing my thoughts, Shi Tao patted me on the shoulder and said, "You are a friend of Young Master Tang, and you have helped us so much, we will not treat you as an outsider, so many things will not be hidden from you, I think you are a reliable person!" Is that right? ”

No way! I didn't know the water was so deep before I came! Your uncle's Lantern Festival! I turned my head to look at Lantern Festival, who knew that this kid was still there concentrating on studying the horse snake. I didn't hear the conversation between me and Shi Tao at all.

I was thinking about countless things at this time, but gradually I figured out the current situation, and I was now in the company of the tomb robbers, and they accepted me now. I'm a Tomb Robber now! This... It's really... It's really cool!! I felt as if I had fallen into the plot of a movie, and my curiosity about the mysterious unknown, my desire for thrills, had taken over my sanity, and I was getting excited about the current situation! even learned the plot in the movie, turned around and hugged Shi Tao's shoulder: "Brother Tao, we are our own people now, aren't we?" Shi Tao laughed when he heard this, and patted me on the shoulder again.

I'm also a person on the road now, I suddenly remembered the Lantern Festival, this kid pretended to be innocent all the way with me, could it be that he already knew about this situation, and even participated in tomb robbery? I turned my head to look at Lantern Festival and found that this kid was still looking at the horse snake in a daze.

I said to myself, "What's the matter?" You two fell in love at first sight? So he stepped forward and patted the Lantern Festival, "What are you doing in a daze!" ”

Lantern Xiao was startled by my beat, came back to her senses all of a sudden, looked at me fixedly, and pointed to the snake at the foot of the bronze horse, "How do I think I've seen these eyes anywhere?" ”
