Chapter 7: Strange Pictures
Three days later, two men in black arrived as promised.
Seeing them, Pei Gan clenched his fists.
"Yohe, where did the two of you go to practice?" Seeing the bruises on the corners of the two of their mouths, Gu Junyang asked with interest.
The delicate man in black was obviously a little embarrassed, looked at Pei Qian, his eyes hurriedly flashed, and said to Gu Junyang:
"Haha, Brother Gu is really joking. When the two of us first arrived in Mengyue, we saw that the south side of this place was full of mountains, so we were interested, and we wanted to climb high and look far away, and we didn't want the road to slip after the rain in the mountains......"
Hehe, this lie is made up by you, can you fake it any more! I believe you are a ghost, obviously you have offended a ruthless master, Gu Junyang thought with a smile.
"Boss Gu looks very good today, so can we continue to inspect the painting?" The man in black put the wooden box on the table and made a gesture of please.
"Ah, haha, it's so much better, thank you for your concern, that ...... Let's get started. After Gu Junyang finished speaking, he squeezed his eyes at Pei Gan.
Pei Qian's face was gloomy and he opened the wooden box. After a quick glance at the two pictures above, he put them down and opened the third one stacked. Gu Junyang pouted, trying to stretch his neck, intending to look at it obliquely beside him. As soon as Pei Qian opened it, he immediately closed it.
"I'll it, is this picture so powerful in the end, you can't stand it?!" Gu Junyang asked curiously with wide eyes.
The handsome man in black was stunned for a moment, and asked puzzledly, "Awesome, what does Brother Gu mean by this?"
"Forehead......" Gu Junyang choked for a while.
"It's nothing, keep ......" Pei Qian looked at Gu Junyang and said.
I saw that most of the pictures on the third picture are still painted with glaciers, and if you look closely, there is a narrow path in the south that is not easy to find.
The path twists and turns around the mountain, leading to the foot of a majestic mountain. There seems to be a pool of water at the bottom of the mountain, and the winding path disappears. To the south of the mountains, there are still icebergs, and in the middle of the mountains, there seems to be a large circular building.
"Wow, treasure map!?" Gu Junyang didn't hold back, and said in surprise next to him.
Without waiting for Pei Qian to speak, he quickly snatched the picture from his hand, scribbled at it a few times, and then asked the man in black: "Hey, buddy, the location of the circular building drawn on this picture is the same location as the one drawn on the second picture?"
The man in black was about to laugh, but he felt pain on his face, and reluctantly grinned and said, "Yes, I know that Boss Gu likes these novelties." ”
Pei Qian hurriedly snatched the picture back and stuffed it back into the wooden box, "What did you promise me for?
"Oh, Ann. You see, I'm not much better, I can be alive and kicking. Gu Junyang smiled absentmindedly.
Then he turned his head to look at the man in black and asked, "What do you really mean by showing me these pictures? Although these pictures are exquisitely painted, they have been some years old. But the price is at most a few thousand dollars a foot. I'm afraid it's not worth the two of you coming all the way just to trade these three pictures of unknown origin!?"
The delicate man in black forgot that there was still a wound on his face for a while, and showed a treacherous smile, "Haha, it's still Brother Gu's experience, as Brother Gu meant, we want the dagger drawn in the picture!"
At this time, Pei Qian interjected, his face was gloomy, "Although we are in the antique business, we never do anything like digging sand and fighting. Besides, the Lechuan Stream is frozen all the year round, and the terrain is treacherous, and there is basically no return when we enter it! We only do normal business, if we want to find a dagger, we should find another master!"
"Hey, how do you know it's Lethe River. Gu Junyang was stunned.
"The tree painted on the mountain is a cold plum, and there is only one place where the whole world is covered with plum blossoms and ice and snow. Officially inform the two of you, we don't do this business, why don't we leave quickly!?" Pei Qian's eyes were slightly angry.
The figure in black was obviously stagnant, and his attitude immediately became modest, "Okay, well, since that's the case." Brother Gu, we can't buy and sell benevolence, this is my phone number trouble Save. ”
Cautiously glancing at Pei Qian, he cleared his throat and continued: "Do you want to think about it again?" We will stay at Xinyue Hotel in the south of the city for a while, if you change your mind, we are always welcome to cooperate, and there will be a period later." After saying that, the two of them hurriedly left with the wooden box.
"Hey......"
Gu Junyang was stunned for a moment when he watched from the side, and was about to speak.
"No!" Pei Qian said sharply.
Gu Junyang pursed his lips and muttered in a low voice, "I just wonder why they are in such a hurry." If you don't go, you won't go, how can you react so much? Why are you so fierce?"
Pei Qian glanced at him, "I still have something to do, let's go first, before the matter is clear, you are not allowed to run around!"
"Hey, why are you in such a hurry?"
After seeing Pei Qian walking away, Gu Junyang hurriedly ordered Lao Wu to close the shop. Then he took out a pen and paper and began to redraw the dagger from memory. In a few moments, a dagger leaped onto the page. The shape, pattern, and lettering are exactly the same as the original drawing.
"Strange, such a familiar feeling, where have you seen it?" Fingers lightly touched the pattern, Gu Junyang lightly raised his eyes, carefully recalling the two characters in the painting.
I suddenly felt that one of the men in ancient costumes was especially like the beauty I often saw in my dreams!
"No, I had a woman in my dream, but it was a man. Gu Junyang muttered to himself, he didn't feel right. He tried to remember the other man, but the more he thought about it, the more blurred it became. And so on and so forth, and after several attempts, it was like this.
Gu Junyang rubbed his temples, and finally decided to give up, and suddenly thought that the two of them were wearing ** clothes.
"These two people have such painful expressions, aren't they seriously injured?"
A flash of inspiration suddenly occurred in his mind, "Then the stains on this body may be - bloodstains!"
Thinking that it was blood, Gu Junyang broke out in a cold sweat. Subconsciously, I hurriedly opened my shirt. I saw that at the mouth of the heart, there were two red birthmarks the size of thumbnails.
There was a sudden dull pain in my chest, and an indescribable sadness rushed up from the bottom of my heart.
"No, no, it's not a seal at all. From the very beginning, Pei Qian knew the origin of this painting!" Gu Junyang couldn't help but think of Pei Gan's previous abnormalities.
"Why am I so sad to see this painting? It's like I've forgotten something very important, and I'm about to call it out, but I can't grasp anything. Is this place something to do with me?!"
A wave of dizziness swept over again!
Gu Junyang no longer hesitated, gritted his teeth and endured the headache, grabbed his windbreaker, and ran towards Xinyue Hotel.
