Shaoxing in July and August is the hottest time of the year.

Although my small shop has air conditioning, it is really expensive to open all day and night, and it will definitely be unbearable for me who is operating poorly.

There's no way, you can only rely on electric fans to deal with it.

On this day, I was sitting in a rocking chair and taking a nap when suddenly the phone rang. In normal business transactions, I either use WeChat or call my mobile phone directly, and the phone in the store does not ring a few times a year.

"Which king is a lamb, stirring people's dreams!" I sat up with a frown, picked up the phone and said, "Hey, who one may I ask?" ”

"Who do you say about me, who will call you a landline besides me?"

Listening to this voice is really very familiar, just now I was napping and my brain was confused, and I didn't react for a while, and I usually called my landline with the old turtle grandson.

"Heh, who should I be, Lao Qi!"

"You kid is sleeping in the shop again, I said can you have a little bit of interest, you really plan to keep this little shop for the rest of your life?"

"Then what else can I do, I don't have the ability of your boss Qi, my family is big, my ambitions are high, it's good if I don't starve to death." I sighed, "Why don't you show me the way?" Let my brother also be naked? ”

"If you don't come to this set, there is a way, it depends on whether you can grasp it or not."

I smiled slightly, "Tell me about it." ”

"Have you a business, are you interested?" Lao Qi pretended to be mysterious on the other end of the phone.

"I'm almost out of the pot, I'll do any business!" I urged.

When Lao Qi heard what I said, he paused and said, "You have to go on a business trip to the sea this time." ”

"At sea?" I was surprised, "What's the situation, why do you have to go to sea?" I'm looking for the Dragon Taibao, not fishing! ”

"Oh, don't be poor, listen to me explain to you." Lao Qi said patiently, "That's the case, a friend of mine, who is in the seafood business, whispered to me a few days ago that he found an ancient tomb in the sea?" ”

When I heard this, I was even more puzzled, and quickly asked, "Submarine tombs?" This is a difficult technical job, and I'm in contact with it for the first time, don't fool me, you kid, is it reliable? ”

"People are absolutely reliable, and the information is absolutely true, it's just ......" Lao Qi wanted to say and stopped.

"What's it?"

"It's just that this deal is relatively risky, and the news has been revealed!"

"I'll it, you kid play with me!" I couldn't get angry, "The news is revealed, and I said a yarn." ”

"Don't worry." Lao Qi hurriedly explained, "The news is revealed, but this submarine tomb is really not easy to send, no one can do this porcelain work without diamonds." Let me tell you this, my friend has found a group of people who are ready to do this ticket, but those people have limited skills and are not sure of this, so they found me. I thought of you for the first time, and I also know that your kid has been short on money lately, you see ......"

"I see, you old turtle grandson just thinks my life is too long." After saying that, I hung up the phone directly.

"Jingle bell ......" a few seconds later, the phone rang again.

I took the phone again, and before I could speak, Lao Qi said anxiously: "Li Rui, listen to me tell you, I really didn't cheat you!" We've been friends for so many years, when have I ever cheated you? ”

"You don't come to this set, and you said that you didn't pit me, did you forget the matter of the king sending the child? If it weren't for you, I would have ...... "I want to talk and stop, the past is like yesterday, and many things are sad when I think about it."

"Hey, can we not mention that? Okay, let's just say that apart from that time, have I ever cheated you? ”

I thought for a moment, "That's not true." ”

"That's not the end, you listen to my brother, I won't hurt you."

"I said Lao Qi, you take care of me, I know it in my heart, but you can't push me into the fire pit, right?" I complained, "You're also an old man, can't you see what this game is?" If I go, won't I be a sheep in the mouth of a tiger? When the time comes, they will unload the mill and kill the donkey, and I don't know how to die. ”

"I know everything!" Lao Qi still has the same tone in his chest, "But you have to believe me, if I am not sure, I will not recommend you." ”

Hearing him swear so much, I couldn't help but wonder, "What kind of way is that friend of yours?" ”

"Speaking of relatives, he has been doing seafood farming, and there is no stain on his body." Lao Qi explained, "If it weren't for the recent problems in the breeding base and the seafood was dead, he wouldn't have taken the risk to do this vote." ”

"I'm asking about the grave robbers."

"Oh, they're a bunch of bandits in the Northeast, and they're not much of a figure."

"What I'm most afraid of is this kind of goods, they don't have any morality in their eyes, they can do anything for money!" I still felt that this deal was unreliable, and persuaded me: "I also advise you, tell your relative to stop it quickly, now the folk thieves are not good birds, a group of outlaws, what can't they do?" ”

Seeing my resolute attitude, Lao Qi didn't know what to say, so he hung up the phone stupidly.

I shook my head and sighed, "Life is really difficult, bend your waist for five buckets of rice...... Hey, forget it, I'd better look at it, it's more important to live than anything else......"

Unexpectedly, I was about to lie down and continue to nap, when the pop-up window on the mobile phone screen jumped, and at a glance, I found that it was sent by Lao Qi.

"Why doesn't this old boy give up......" I shook my head while clicking on WeChat, and saw that it was a photo that was sent, but the moment I clicked on the photo, the whole person bounced up suddenly, "I'll go!" ”

I exclaimed, "Meng Xing! ”

I saw that the photo only took a place that looked like a tomb door, because it was taken in the sea, the visibility was not high, but Rao was so, and a mark on the tomb door still lifted my spirits.

"Hair mounds." I have seen this kind of pattern in the Yinshan Tomb, and later I have also seen it in the Earth Immortal Evil Tomb, "Could it be that this undersea tomb is also related to Meng Xing?" ”

I couldn't help but think of the "Seven Treasures" that Yan Yunshu said, "Could it be that there are also Seven Treasures left by Meng Xing in this underwater tomb?" ”

If this is really Meng Xing's doubtful grave, then the nature of this matter is different. Just for the sake of livelihood, I can stand by and watch, but if my guess is true, then maybe I can unlock the curse of the Lin family, the Huai family, and the Yan family for thousands of years, then I can't ignore it anyway.

I hurriedly replied, "Where?" ”

When Lao Qi saw me replying, he naturally knew that there was a door, and immediately called. I took it and urged, "Tell me, where is this place?" ”

"Dalian." Lao Qi replied.

"Dalian? Be specific. I frowned.

"Snake Island." Lao Qi said two words clearly.

"Snake Island? I think I've seen it somewhere. I was stunned for a moment, "Isn't that island full of poisonous snakes?" ”

"Yes, that's it. The tomb was near Snake Island, under Snake Island to be exact. Lao Qi explained, "They have done preliminary investigations and found that this ancient tomb extends from the bottom of Snake Island to the bottom of the sea, and it should be an underwater tomb built on the island, which is not the same as the shipwreck tomb built completely in the sea." ”

I nodded, "That's good news, it's built on the island and at least there are rock masses as support, and if it's a shipwreck tomb, I don't have the skills to take this business." ”

"So, you agreed?" Lao Qi said tentatively.

"You think beautifully, I didn't get on your thief ship so easily." I snorted coldly, "In this way, you book me a plane ticket, and I, I should go on a trip and go to investigate first, how about it?" ”

Lao Qi was silent for a long time and said, "Okay, as long as you are willing to go, I will listen to you!" ”

"Well, that's it for now." With that, I hung up.

Now I just want to rest and I don't feel like this, so I hurriedly turned on my computer and searched for information about Snake Island. Curiously, according to the information published on the Internet, this small island is now included in the nature reserve, located in the Bohai Sea in the northwest of Lushunkou District, and is several nautical miles from the mainland.

"The island is about 1,500 meters long and 800 meters wide, with a total area of about 1.2 square kilometers. The main peak is 216.9 meters above sea level, with many cliffs on all sides, only a pebble beach in the southeast corner. There are more than 200 species of plants on the island. In forests, stone caves, mountain beams, yin valleys and other places, there are about 20,000 pit vipers, known as black-browed pit vipers in Chinese. Spring and autumn are the feeding seasons for pit vipers, and a large number of migratory birds become prey for snakes......" I thought about it while reading the information on the Internet, and muttered to myself: "How can there be a suspicious grave for Meng Xing on such a small island where birds don't?" Could it be that it still hides some secret that no one knows? ”

Snake Island is the only island in the world where a single species of black-browed pit viper survives, with nearly 20,000 highly venomous snakes living in an area of less than one square kilometer. On Snake Island, there is still a wonder of the world: the pit viper on the island is the only snake in the world that hibernates and hibernates, and this snake survives only a few times a year, and this extremely tenacious vitality has allowed them to survive and reproduce on the island for tens of millions of years.

"Such important news, I should tell Lin Xiaoyu and Huai Rujin!" I was about to call both of them, but I hesitated when I finished typing in numbers.

"Forget it, I don't know if this matter is reliable or not, if it's empty joy, wouldn't it be ......" Thinking of the life experiences of the two of them, I can't help but feel a little gloomy in my heart.

"It's better for me to go alone, figure things out first, and when it's implemented, it's not too late to inform them!" I secretly made up my mind.

One person, means that the risk factor will be doubled.

I lit a cigarette, and my eyes and thoughts deepened.

Although I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse to go, all the efforts are worth it for the sake of my beloved.

Even if......

"No, there is no such possibility!" I snuffed out the cigarette butt, took the dragon ring from the drawer, and put it on.
