Chapter 206, touching the golden captain Lao Cao
Walking into the basement, Zhou Jimin was still thinking in his heart, but it was really a good thing.
I thought it was just an ordinary gathering, but I didn't think that today's harvest was not only an unexpected harvest, but also a special meow encountered a temporary inspection.
Simply so!
And the basement of this courtyard house also opened his eyes.
It's huge!
The space in the basement is basically the same as the space in the backyard house.
Listening to the old man's explanation, this is a shelter built since the turmoil at the end of the Qing Dynasty.
Later, after several generations of transformation, reinforcement, etc., the current scale was formed.
It can be said that this courtyard is a bunker.
If someone really blocked the entire courtyard on the ground, the people in the basement would be able to survive for about a month or two even if they couldn't get out.
Because there is a lot of food, dry food and so on in the basement.
And there are several vents, vents exposed to the outside world, which want to be hidden, and the possibility of being discovered is extremely small.
Everyone was taken aback by the white-haired old man's explanation, how insecure it must be to build such an underground castle?
"If you can't do anything, don't you just leave the capital with your wife and children? Why put your hopes in the basement? ”
If something really happens, the grain storage in the basement will eventually run out of ammunition one day, can it still consume energy than the blockade on the ground?
"You can't even mix in the place where your ancestors have lived for generations, and if you go to other places, you must have a way to live?"
The white-haired old man simply asked a rhetorical question and didn't explain much.
It's just that there is a hint of helplessness and persistence in his tone.
Zhou Jimin said in his heart, it is estimated that he is a stubborn old man again.
When faced with a catastrophe or a major event, everyone's reaction will not be the same.
Some people are famous and don't want to live in the world, some people just want to live, and some people live and die.
After everyone looked at the layout of the basement, someone began to suggest that we should start the secret marking now, right?
I don't know when the inspection on the ground will be completed, so instead of waiting boringly, it is better to continue with what I have just done.
This proposal was quickly approved by everyone, and the secret label officially began.
Fortunately, the location of the basement is large enough, and when you write the hidden price, you will not let others see it.
After writing, everyone put the paper into a small box, and then everyone supervises it together, opens it to see the price, and finally the one with the highest price wins.
In this way, there is basically no room for everyone to play, so they can only rely on hard power.
Zhou Jimin is a catfish, so the capitalists, the white-haired old man and Wu Chengfeng dare not offer low prices.
Soon, it was time for the results.
What Zhou Jimin didn't expect was that the group of people in front of him actually quoted a high price for Qishi that he couldn't imagine.
Most of them are more than 20 big yellow croaker, Wu Chengfeng is good, he directly gave 36 big yellow croaker, and even said that he was willing to take the jade seal again.
He is bound to obtain strange stones, which is why they have such a high price.
Most of the big guys' quotations for other antique objects are about ten large yellow croakers, and they are not quoted individually, but all the package prices.
Wu Chengfeng saw that everyone's offer for his jade seal four-piece set, the highest was Zhou Jimin, but he only gave the price of fifteen big yellow croaker, and he was so angry that he didn't know what to say.
Of course, the white-haired old man and the capitalists must know how much the source of the jade seal four-piece set is, so the price of about ten big yellow croakers is not low.
However, Wu Chengfeng wants more.
It's good now, the four-piece jade seal can't be exchanged for a strange stone, it's really outrageous, it's outrageous, it's outrageous.
Now that the quotations are out, if you want to sell, then sell, if you don't want to trade, you should not see the quotation.
The dragon-shaped strange stone was naturally sold by Zhou Jimin, Wu Chengfeng struggled for a while, or took the jade seal four-piece set to deduct fifteen big yellow croakers, and then took out ten big yellow croakers, and then asked the white-haired old man that they borrowed eleven big yellow croakers, and then they got the strange stones.
When the strange stone arrived, Wu Chengfeng kept looking at it.
But even if he nailed his eyes to the strange stone, he couldn't see any flaws.
I can only put it away with satisfaction, and my heart says that this dragon-shaped gem may really be a strange treasure.
Next, Zhou Jimin spent all the twenty-one big yellow croakers given by Wu Chengfeng and bought seven antiques back.
The rest of the antiques were divided among a few capitalists.
However, the big winner is still Zhou Jimin.
A strange stone sold thirty-six large yellow croaker, which can only be said to be unique.
After the transaction was completed, the atmosphere was much lighter.
However, not long after everyone talked, Zhou Jimin suddenly frowned and put a finger on his mouth, "Let's be quiet first, listen to if there is any movement?" ”
Although everyone had doubts, they still quieted down and listened attentively.
There is a little bit of movement, is it a movement from the emergency inspection on the ground?
In response to this doubt, the white-haired old man shook his head and said, the basement is more than five meters above the ground, how can it be heard?
Besides, the movement was not coming from the ground, but from the wall next to it.
Wall?
Everyone was shocked, it couldn't be some dirty thing, right?
For example, zongzi or something.
The group of people in the basement claim to be well-informed, and they don't believe in any myths and ghost stories.
But encountering such unbelievable things also makes them feel frightened.
Because the unknown is the most terrible thing.
The crowd searched around and finally confirmed the source of the sound, which was behind the wall in front of them.
And, listening to this voice, the movement became more and more sober.
It's the movement of the wall, and there is vibration, but it's not small.
So, everyone got nervous.
The white-haired old man was directly connected to the ground, and wanted to ask if the ground's emergency inspection had passed?
I really can't stay in the basement anymore, and if I do encounter something dirty, I won't be able to leave when I want to.
Zhou Jimin put his ear to the wall, listened for a while, and could confirm that in a few minutes, the opposite side could chisel through this wall.
Hiss!
When the crowd heard his judgment, they became even more nervous.
However, the white-haired old man has not received the news from the ground yet, so he can only wait.
If we go back to the surface now, maybe something will happen.
The movement on the other side of the basement wall could be something else besides being dirty.
For example, touching Captain Kim or something.
Everyone prayed that things would not go in a bad direction, and that it would only be a false alarm.
As time passed, in the midst of nervous waiting, suddenly, the wall was smashed by Zhou Jimin's stool.
Straight out of a hole.
A pair of dark eyes and a head completely wrapped in black cloth were revealed.
Obviously, the person on the other side was also frightened by Zhou Jimin's sudden move and froze in place.
Until Zhou Jimin stretched out his hand, grabbed the other party's arm, and pulled hard.
Sting!
The clothes on the other party's arm were directly torn, but Zhou Jimin's hands were fast and powerful, so he dragged the other party to death.
Soon pulled the other party out of it.
Everyone was shocked, this man was a little dark, had a foul smell, and was very short, like a dwarfism.
"Who are you? Why did it come to my house? ”
When the white-haired old man asked, Zhou Jimin didn't pay attention to these, but probed his brain into the channel.
There was actually a voice coming from inside, "Lao Cao, how long will it take to dig?" ”
It's not very loud, but it can be heard clearly.
Just as Zhou Jimin was about to get into the passage and find out the man, the other party suddenly came out of the corner.
The two of them stared at each other and froze for a moment.
The other party saw the strange Zhou Jimin, thinking it was a zongzi or something, and he panicked.
And Zhou Jimin recognized the other party, this person is Zidane's friend Na Shuzhong.
Although he had only met Na Shuzhong a few times, Zhou Jimin never forgot it, and naturally recognized the other party at a glance.
That's why he was so surprised.
After coming back to his senses, he grinned: "That Shuzhong, I guessed that you must have touched Captain Jin, come here, don't try to escape." ”
was called out his name all of a sudden, Rao is tree loyal and bold, and he was also scared away at this time.
Then, one turned around and fled directly.
At this time, Wu Chengfeng and the others behind Zhou Jimin were all stunned.
The first is to express admiration for Zhou Jimin's courageous behavior.
If ordinary people encounter this situation, even if they are courageous, they probably won't be able to be as light as Zhou Jimin, right?
The second is to be surprised by the timidity of that Shuzhong.
These people in the basement basically knew or heard the name of Na Shuzhong.
Although Na Shuzhong is also a descendant of the royal family of the previous dynasty, well, a proper aristocratic status.
However, this person is not like a nobleman at all, and he still does the work of digging the graves of his ancestors, which many people despise.
It's just that these people despise and disdain, and when they trade with Na Shuzhong, they don't include a lake.
After all, although Wu Chengfeng and the others looked down on Na Shuzhong's profession, they would not be unable to get along with money.
That Shuzhong can take out a lot of dirty things to trade every year, although everyone doesn't know where this guy got these dirty things, but he still accepts them.
Therefore, after dealing with Na Shuzhong for so long, everyone knows that this person is a bold person.
But I didn't expect that today I realized that Shuzhong's courage was so small.
scared people away, and Zhou Jimin didn't chase them.
Instead, he looked at the dwarfism patient Lao Cao and looked at it with interest.
In the past, he only guessed that Nashu Zhong was the captain of the Touching Jin, but after all, it was not confirmed.
Because some of them are just dirty buyers who have touched Captain Jin, this kind of buyer actually occasionally touches the corpse or something.
When you come into contact with these people, as long as you have a keen sense of smell, you can detect a trace of cold breath.
Of course, the average person doesn't notice it.
Zhou Jimin didn't squeak, but Wu Chengfeng and the others were already gossiping, and they were interrogating the dwarfism patients for a while.
Because he was in the basement, the dwarfism Lao Cao was also frightened, so he had to honestly explain the matter clearly.
Things are quite simple, Lao Cao and Na Shuzhong made an appointment to rob the tomb together, which is the trace of the ancient tomb that Lao Cao found himself.
The tomb is underground nearby, but it is a suburb of the city, and there are many people coming and going.
Who knows, Lao Cao has a small pet by himself, and this little thing is very sensitive to dirty things.
And you can also determine the direction by breath.
"Where's your little pet?"
Wu Chengfeng asked, and then saw Lao Cao explain awkwardly that he was frightened by Zhou Jimin just now, and he didn't know where the little thing had gone.
"Don't talk nonsense, keep talking."
The white-haired old man was not interested in small pets, he only wanted to know now the cause and effect of the whole thing.
This is an underground fortress that his family has been operating for hundreds of years.
However, now that he has been dug through by the two bastards Shuzhong and Cao Lixin, he has the idea of eating people.
Let's try it soon, everyone. 】
Lao Cao shrank his head in fear and continued.
There are small pets, and Lao Cao is invincible every time he robs the tomb, but this time he lost.
They dug for more than a month, thinking that they were about to reach the tomb, but they didn't expect to be pulled out by Zhou Jimin.
"So, you mean that my house is a tomb underneath?"
The white-haired old man asked expressionlessly, and Lao Cao nodded awkwardly, "That's right, after my observation and experiment, the tomb of the Marquis of the Yuan Dynasty is on the land under our feet." ”
As soon as these words came out, Wu Chengfeng and the others were excited.
Mrs. Hou's tomb, there must be a lot of good things in it, right?
Although during the Yuan Dynasty, aristocratic women were the same as clothes, and they threw them away.
But Madame is a wife, so it must be different.
And it can also be buried in the suburbs of Beijing, and the designation will not be too bad.
"Then why didn't you dig down?" Zhou Jimin suddenly opened his mouth and raised a doubt.
Everyone immediately stared at Cao Lixin, as if they were a little annoyed and angry.
Damn, how dare you fool them?
The dwarfism old Cao wanted to cry and explained without tears:
"Digging further down is a big rock, and it can't be chiseled at all, so I'm trying to find a way to see if it's possible to find the main entrance of the tomb through other paths..."
This guy is really full of gibberish, not a word of truth.
Finally, everyone looked at the white-haired old man and saw how he was going to deal with the matter.
After all, this is his home, and as the owner, he should be the most angry one when he encounters this kind of thing.
At this moment, the sound of a bell suddenly sounded in the basement, and the white-haired old man suddenly said excitedly:
"It's safe up there, let's go, let's go out."
The bell is shaken by the middle-aged man who handles things on the ground, and he shakes it on the ground, connecting the bell in the basement, and with a specific sound, he can inform the ground of the situation.
After all, when people are in the basement, they cannot come from the ground to the basement unless they violently demolish the house.
When everyone heard this, they also showed smiling faces.
It's just that this dwarfistic old Cao, what should he do?
Let's get to the ground first!
By the time we got back to the ground, it was already getting dark.
It's a good feeling to see the light of day again.
Even though I was only in the basement for a little more than an hour or so, it felt like a world away.
"Now that it's safe, then everyone, I'll take my leave."
At this point in time, the children probably got up, so Zhou Jimin was the first to say goodbye.
When everyone saw this, they kept it.
Seeing that he couldn't keep it, he had to say that he would have the opportunity to get together again next time.
It's just a polite remark, let's talk about it when we have a chance to meet.
Of course, Zhou Jimin will definitely come again, after all, there must be many good treasures in the hands of these people.
And these treasures and antiques are all what he wants.
Like those few capitalists, if there is no accident, they will either leave the mainland quickly, or their family property will be confiscated.
Rather than that, let him keep it for them.
He left in a hurry, and he didn't care about the fate of the dwarfic Lao Cao and the matter of Na Shuzhong.
In the past few days, the weather in the capital has been exceptionally good.
After the sandstorm, there is no bad weather, so the sky is cloudless, and the temperature is only 17 or 8 degrees, which is very cool and comfortable.
Zhou Jimin, who changed back to his usual clothes, rode a bicycle, and when he returned to Zhou's house, the little cauliflower had already arrived.
"Daddy, uncle."
The children were reading aloud in the yard, and the sound was very good.
But with his appearance, the sound of reading stopped abruptly, mixed with a few noisy noises.
"Continue to study, I haven't eaten breakfast yet, I'll give you a lesson when I'm done with breakfast."
Zhou Jimin smiled and touched the children's heads and sent them back to continue studying.
It's already March now, and in the second half of the year, he will let Zhou Qingxian go to school.
Maybe many families go to school at the age of seven now, but Zhou Qingxian and they are all very smart, and it is okay to go to school earlier.
However, you can't learn from the little goldfish anymore, and you still skip a grade.
In fact, skipping a grade is also a common thing in this era.
Especially for those who are gifted, schools and teachers, there will always be some preferential treatment.
Similarly, some poor students will also be repeated.
As a result, in some local schools, there are several children who look like sixth grade or junior high school students in the third grade class.
"Okay Dad."
"Okay uncle."
Zhou Jimin didn't go to the living room to eat, so he was in the kitchen to eat something to cushion his stomach.
The early morning experience was really a bit of a surprise, causing him to forget that he was still hungry.
Ding Qiunan and the others had already gone to work and school, and Huang Xiaohua and the children were left at home.
Now in the house, there is only Afu's big dog, but he rarely hears the barking of dogs.
While eating, Zhou Jimin looked at the children in the yard, and then looked at the two milk cats who were still hiding in the stove Maodong, and sighed in his heart.
The two he brought back were fake cats, right?
After a winter, I basically never left the kitchen.
It's March now, and I'm still staying on the stove, are you so afraid of the cold?
Therefore, if you want these two cats to take action, catch mice, and protect this home, I am afraid that there will be some time.
"Why don't you take them back into space and train for a while?"
As soon as he had the idea, the two of them burst into flames, looked at him in horror, and then ran away with a swish.
Seeing this, Zhou Jimin smiled, can he escape to the sky?
He decided to throw them back into space and rebuild them later.
You have to look like a cat!
