Chapter 20: The Snitch of Two Hundred Pounds

The two chatted for a while, and then saw Li Xiaoqing and Shi Ran coming down from upstairs.

Li Xiaoqing obviously just finished taking a shower, his face was flushed, he simply wore a white T-shirt and cropped pants, with a pair of sneakers, his hair was draped behind his head, and he didn't wear makeup, but he looked even more youthful.

Zhao Xuan's eyes lit up, he got up and waved his hand, and greeted Li Xiaoqing: "It's quite fast, I still think about waiting for another twenty minutes." ”

Li Xiaoqing thought that Zhao Xuan was mocking her for her slow movements, so she glanced at Zhao Xuan and said, "I'm fast." ”

"No, no, no, I really didn't mean that." Zhao Xuan found that Li Xiaoqing had misunderstood, and hurriedly explained.

glanced at Lin Ling secretly, lowered his voice and said, "You can't compare with Lin Ling, she doesn't count." ”

"Sister Lin Ling, Zhao Xuan said that you are not a woman." Li Xiaoqing informed.

"Oh?" Lin Ling stood up.

Zhao Xuan had disappeared outside the door of the guest house. After a few seconds, he poked his head out of the gate and beckoned to the two: "Hurry up, I'm going to eat, I'm starving." ”

That night, Song Shaofeng made a phone call and informed the two to go directly to City D and did not need to go back to the capital.

The reason is that Zhang Yuan inquired about some clues according to the situation of Zhang Deshun and Zhang Deyi's two brothers.

It is said that the two brothers had frequent contact with a tomb robber nicknamed "Dog" half a month ago.

The "dogs" gang have been wandering around the city of D for a long time, and the stone carvings are likely to be stolen and excavated by this group. However, the true identity of the "dogs" is not yet known, and their whereabouts have not been caught.

Song Shaofeng asked the two to leave the second stone carving in Huai County, and someone would pick it up later.

Early the next morning, the two said goodbye to Li Xiaoqing, first went to store the stone carving at the county public security bureau, and then rushed to the direction of D city.

This time, Zhao Xuan didn't dare to let Lin Ling drive again, prepared enough refreshing drinks, and rushed to City D before lunch in one go.

City D, known as Pingcheng during the Northern Wei Dynasty, was the political center of the entire Northern Wei Dynasty for nearly a hundred years, witnessing the rise and fall of the Northern Wei Dynasty.

It can be said that the prosperity of the Northern Wei Dynasty began with the relocation of the capital to City D, and the decline also began with the relocation of the capital from City D.

The Northern Wei Dynasty, as the first regime of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, marked the beginning of the reunification of the Central Plains from the Three Kingdoms, the Two Jins, the Five Hu and the Sixteen Kingdoms, and nearly 200 years of chaos and strife.

The subsequent Sui and Tang dynasties both had deep ties with the Northern Wei Dynasty. In the entire history of China, the Northern Wei Dynasty is considered an extremely important point in time.

Because of the worship of Buddha, there are countless stone carvings in the Northern Wei Dynasty, so the Northern Wei Dynasty also has an extremely important position in the history of Chinese carving. And what makes the city of D famous all over the world is the grottoes of the Northern Wei Dynasty.

The two parked their cars in a hotel parking lot, and saw Cheng Shumann waving at the door of the hotel from a distance, and Zhang Yuan stood by helplessly.

Zhang Yuan wore a black new-style Tang costume with beads around his neck, while Cheng Shuman wore a pale yellow dress and a straw hat.

Looking at it this way, the two are really ...... Not a match.

A few people said hello at the door of the hotel, and Zhang Yuan pointed to Lin Ling's clothes: "Let's change it, don't go the normal way this time, your clothes are too conspicuous." ”

"I didn't bring it." Lin Ling replied.

"Wear mine, wear mine." Cheng Schumann suggested.

Zhang Yuan glanced at Cheng Shuman's chest and said lightly: "It's not suitable, I can't wear it." ”

"Dead fat, you're dead!" Cheng Shuman raised his foot and kicked Zhang Yuan, who was standing next to him.

"You're wearing a skirt, be careful when you walk naked." Zhao Xuan reminded on the side.

"Do you understand safety pants?" Cheng Shuman directly lifted his skirt, and inside the skirt was a pair of pumpkin pants.

Cheng Shuman kicked Zhao Xuan this time.

Zhao Xuan and the two entered the hotel while hiding.

This time, I saved the opening of the room and re-registered my ID card at the front desk.

Then a few people didn't go upstairs, and had a casual meal in the hotel first.

"Tell me, what's going on?" After entering the room, Zhao Xuan threw his backpack on the bed and threw himself on the bed at the same time. said to Zhang Yuan, who came in together: "I drove all morning, and I was tired of my master." ”

"What? Have you seen Miss Lin's driving skills? Zhang Yuan laughed evilly on the side.

"Toothless and unforgettable." Zhao Xuan sighed.

"Agreed." Zhang Yuan agreed.

"Alright, let's get down to business. What are you going to do? Zhao Xuan stood up and asked Zhang Yuan next to him: "Why don't you contact the local public security or something?" ”

"Not in touch for the time being. These people who are engaged in antiques are more or less touched and are more repulsive to this. Zhang Yuan shook his head and said: "I will go with me to meet someone later, do an appraisal, he is more famous in the local antique circle, and he knows many people, so he may know who the 'dog' is." ”

"In the evening, there is an antique 'exchange meeting', which is a private trade fair. This 'exchange meeting' is held from time to time, and it happens to happen, so you have to go and see it, and maybe you can find something. That's right......" Zhang Yuan added: "I have to send Lin Ling to buy clothes, her clothes are too obvious." ”

"As for now." Zhang Yuan lay down on the bed: "Of course, let's take a comfortable nap first." ”

"Not in a hurry?" Zhao Xuan was surprised: "These are all dead!" ”

"What's the hurry?" Zhang Yuan rolled over: "Can you die again?" ”

Zhao Xuan was dazed by Zhang Yuan's earth-shattering snoring and had just fallen asleep when he was woken up by a knock on the door.

Zhao Xuan got up and opened the door, and as soon as the door opened, Cheng Shuman got in. As soon as he entered the door, he went to pull Zhang Yuan's quilt: "Quick, I'm shopping, it's very urgent and critical." ”

"It's not just a little bit, stay away, I'll sleep again." Zhang Yuan glanced at his mobile phone with one hand in a daze, and pulled the quilt with the other: "Don't pull it, I'm naked!" Beware of me suing you for harassment! ”

The two tugged for a few minutes before Zhang Yuan reluctantly got up and washed his face indiscriminately.

This time, Zhang Yuan drove the car. After getting into the van and turning on the air conditioner, Zhang Yuan sighed: "I still have to buy a car." ”

"Did you draw a card?" Zhao Xuan sat in the co-pilot and mocked.

"I'll go to the auction." Zhang Yuan was not convinced.

"Are you rich?" Zhao Xuan stabbed again.

"What the master has is money!"

"Two hundred catties of pork are indeed worth a lot."

The two talked to each other all the way, first put Lin Ling and Cheng Shuman in a shopping mall, drove out of the city, and then went around and around to a small village in the suburbs.

"That's it." Zhang Yuan pulled over on the road, jumped out of the car, and pointed to the yard next to him.

"This person's name is Chen Huanlin, in his fifties, and he has no education." Zhang Yuan stepped forward and knocked on the door, and introduced to Zhao Xuan:

"When I was young, I went out to work with others, and later became a contractor, specializing in organizing people to help with archaeological digging. He is smarter and can speak, and the old experts are happy to point him out. ”

"I've been working for almost 20 years, learning by doing, and there are a lot of cultural relics I have learned. Gradually, the work of the contractor was gone, and he specialized in helping people identify cultural relics, and occasionally picked up leaks, bought and resold them. ”

"In the north of Shanxi, this acre and three points of land."

Zhang Yuan pointed to his feet and said, "The size is a character." ”

Zhao Xuan looked around while listening to Zhang Yuan's introduction.

In front of him was an ordinary rural bungalow, with a small courtyard enclosed by a wall in front. The only difference compared to the surrounding houses is that the walls are half as tall as the others.

Zhang Yuan knocked on the door for a long time but there was no response.

"Shouldn't you, make an appointment with him this afternoon, come early?" Zhang Yuan took out his mobile phone and made several calls in succession, but no one answered for a long time.

"Don't call, the phone is inside." Zhao Xuan leaned on the door, his ears were close to the crack in the door, and he could faintly hear the phone ringing in the room.

"Out?" Zhang Yuan put away his mobile phone, pulled the doors on the left and right sides of the back of the car, put down the seat, and went to the chair: "Then I'll sleep again." ”

Zhao Xuan flipped through his phone boredly amid Zhang Yuan's snoring, and fell asleep in a daze after a while.

After more than half an hour, Zhao Xuan heard the sound of rustling and woke up, and Zhang Yuan was not around. Turning his head, Zhang Yuan was bent over, fiddling with the door lock.

"What for?" Zhao Xuan leaned over curiously.

"Scared me." Zhang Yuan was frightened, and when he looked up and saw that it was Zhao Xuan, he was relieved.

Zhang Yuan put a small string of ear-picking spoon-like things in his hand into his pocket, and pointed to the door lock: "Isn't this unlocking?" ”

"You're going to do this?" Zhao Xuan was surprised, and then looked around vigilantly: "You just slipped the door and picked the lock in broad daylight, it's too blatant, right?" ”

"Little craft." Zhang Yuan is quite proud: "When I was young, I learned a lot of miscellaneous work. ”

Zhang Yuan reached out to push the door, but did not push. Shrugged his shoulders and said, "See, bolt it from the inside." People are in there. ”

"Then why don't you answer the phone?" Zhao Xuan was strange, and also stepped forward and tried to push the door, and looked in from the crack in the door, the lock had indeed been retracted, leaving only a finger-thick bolt on the top.

"Call again?"

"You tried it when you just went to bed, and still no one answered."

"Can you get out of the way?" Zhao Xuan pointed to the latch and exchanged lock-picking experience with Zhang Yuan.

"Tried it, it's stuck." Zhang Yuan has a lot of experience.

"What then?" Zhao Xuan scratched his head.

"Easy to do." Zhang Yuan pulled Zhao Xuan and walked to the edge of the wall next to the gate, and asked Zhao Xuan to pose in a half-kneeling posture facing the wall, with his hands against the wall.

Zhao Xuan now understands what Zhang Yuan is going to do, this guy can't slip out of the door, and he is ready to be a snitch.

"Can you do it? Don't bump into me, a few hundred pounds of ......" Before Zhao Xuan finished speaking, he felt his shoulders sink, and when he looked up again, Zhang Yuan had already disappeared on the wall.

Zhao Xuan patted the ash on his shoulder and turned back to the door, Zhang Yuan had already opened the latch inside and pulled the door to let Zhao Xuan in.

Zhao Xuan looked at the courtyard and exclaimed: "Yes, this skill must have been a thief before." ”

"That's it, sir, I was called 'stepping on the snow without a trace' by the people in the rivers and lakes back then." Zhang Yuan turned around and closed the door again, and then took Zhao Xuan's words.

The yard was cleaned up, with a shed built with a steel frame on one side of the yard, a table underneath, a few plastic chairs, and a row of tools against the wall in the corner.

On the front are three bungalows with closed doors. The old-fashioned wooden lattice windows are used, and the lighting is not very good. I can't see what's going on inside the house.

"You're making it up too deliberately." Zhao Xuan heard Zhang Yuan answer, and said with disdain: "You also closed the door before you came back to tell me, you have made up a name for so long, there is really no need to embarrass yourself." ”

"Master, I have a lot of nicknames, I can't think of which one to tell you." Zhang Yuan was still arguing with Zhao Xuan.

"Come on, it's hard enough for you to make up one, I want to say a few more......" Zhao Xuan said halfway through when he was interrupted by Zhang Yuan's shout.

"Don't go to the edge of the house!" Zhang Yuan was originally leaning on the edge of the window to look in, but he suddenly took a few steps back, and reminded Zhao Xuan: "It's really said, another one is dead!" ”

Zhao Xuan took two steps back and gave a thumbs up: "You little Zhang Ye, people in the rivers and lakes call it 'Little Yama King with a light on the mouth'." ”
