14: Archaeologist

Qi Baye raised his eyes and looked at the second floor.

Gong Qi bumped his arm.

"Maybe I'm looking for you, it seems that Nadou has to find an expert, which one of the nine doors is not easy to find, she just came to this street, and only the Qi family is on this street."

Qi Tiezui glanced at him and criticized, "Vulgar, how can Miss Lin's matter be called an inverted fight, she is different from us, she is archaeological and contributes to the motherland." ”

"Oh, look at my little belly chicken intestines without pattern, you're right."

2nd floor compartment.

Lin Yan shook the wine glass in his hand, and pursed his red lips lightly, "I heard that the Ji family sent you to the Qi family among the nine gates, and the war finally stopped, Ji Lin is really heartless." ”

In the early fifties, when tomb robbers were most rampant, there was no complete law in this era, and many people chose to take risks, and Jiumen was also the most prosperous time.

Lin Yan, an archaeologist, had no choice but to ask for help from Jiumen, and it is conceivable that the influence of Jiumen is now.

Ji Lanqian's momentum is far worse than this aunt, she already has a little simplicity on her face with baby fat, but her words are so straightforward, "What about Auntie, did it happen or did it happen today?" ”

Lin Yan was stunned, a little incredulous, she never thought that her niece would be able to talk to her like this one day.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Ji Lanqian chuckled, laughing a little contemptuously.

"I've been here for a week, and you're investigating me, do you want me to do something for you?"

was so straightforward, Lin Yan thought to himself that he really underestimated Ji Lanqian, and he was much more stable at a young age.

"Since you are a smart person, I will open the skylight and say something bright, you know that my aunt and I are studying archaeology, and now I am in a bit of a difficult situation, and I want to ask the one surnamed Qi in the nine doors to go out of the mountain to help."

"I know that you have a good relationship with Qi Baye, I hope you can help me say a good word, after all, what my aunt does is to contribute to the motherland."

Lin Yan's expression was inexplicably serious when he said this.

Ji Lanqian does not doubt her patriotism.

However, she restrained her emotions and said, "I'm just temporarily living in the old mansion of the Qi family, and the relationship with the Qi family is not so good, I can't say anything for you, if you really want to find Qi Tiezui for help, you can say it yourself, I don't do this favor." ”

Lin Yan put down the wine glass and said three good words in a row, she did come prepared, and she also knew in advance that this niece had a good relationship with the Qi family, so she deliberately came here to wait for her.

But I didn't expect to be rejected by her, and I didn't leave any affection.

"Do you want to make a clear relationship with me, or do you want to make a clear relationship with the Qi family, or do you want to make a clear relationship with Jiumen? Although I don't know what happened to the Ji family, from this moment on, the fate of the Nine Gates will coexist with you. ”

Lin Yan's red lips opened slightly, and he was a little shocked when he said this.

Ji Lanqian still couldn't help but clench the corners of her clothes, the surface was light and breezy, and she couldn't be scared by the other party when she was beating a drum in her heart.

Lin Yan watched her reaction amusedly, and after a few seconds, he got up and went out to leave.

Out of the cubicle, looking down from the second floor, there was a gentleman in a gray robe standing on the first floor.

His posture is straight, and he is shaking a folding fan in his hand, which is quite a bit of a fairy wind and bones.

Lin Yan knew that this person was Qi Baye, who was the eighth in the Nine Gate rankings, and was known as Qi Tiezui, the god operator.

She went downstairs and lowered her posture and said to Qi Baye, "Thank you for taking care of my niece, this letter is given to you, please be sure to open it." ”

As she spoke, she took out a letter from her bag and handed it to Qi Baye.

Qi Baye smiled gently, did not refuse, raised his hand and took the letter, and no one should be offended.

"Please Miss Lin come to this trip in person, I will consider it."

After speaking, the two said goodbye.

Above the second floor.

Ji Lanqian looked down at them, a Qi Eighth Master was humble and polite, and her aunt Lin Yan was also quite humble.

She rejected Lin Yan, because she didn't want to owe Qi Baye a favor, otherwise she wouldn't be able to raise her head when she spoke in the future

Jiumen is already like this, and she is also deeply involved in it, and now if she speaks out to help her aunt again, she will not be able to get out of it at all

Qi Baye saw her in a daze on the second floor, so he reminded, "What are you doing in a daze, we should go back." ”

"Oh, good."

Ji Lanqian came back to her senses and went down from the second floor to leave side by side with Qi Baye.

Behind him, Gong Qi looked at the backs of the two of them, touched his chin and thought, so it seems that this Qi Baye and Miss Ji are still quite a good match, no wonder there are rumors that Qi Baye is the son-in-law of the Ji family.

It's really a tall branch.

On the way back, Ji Lanqian was the first to speak, "Regarding my aunt's matter, I didn't agree, and it has nothing to do with me. ”

Qi Baye smiled.

"Do you want to divide the relationship with me for this kind of thing?"

"Naturally, I don't want to make a clear relationship with you, but I want to make a clear relationship with Jiumen."

"Don't think about it, at the Nine Doors gathering in two days, you will be one of the supernumeraries of the Nine Gates." Qi Baye teased.

Ji Lanqian smiled bitterly, "It's really annoying, it seems that I can't escape, what about my aunt's letter?" ”

A slight smile appeared at the corner of Qi Baye's mouth, and he said gently, "Her letter, I will look at and deal with it, this is a matter of contributing to the motherland, of course I will do it, you don't regard everything as human sophistication." ”

She paused, sighed, and retorted arrogantly, "I don't." ”

yes, she just doesn't want to owe him a favor.

Back at the Qi family's shop, there were customers waiting in the inner hall.

Xiao Chang served Ji Lanqian a cup of tea and took some snacks, Qi Baye asked her to wait a little longer, and then go home after finishing the hexagram.

Today's guest was different from the previous ones, he was dressed in coarse cloth, not like a rich man, and wore a wide black hat that covered his face.

Hearing someone coming in, he lowered his head and spoke, his voice was hoarse and ugly, "Eighth Master, something strange happened to me." ”

Qi Baye said as usual, "This store is a small business, one purchase is a rule, you have to pick something from the store to buy it, I can calculate this hexagram for you." ”

The other party knew the rules here, and he picked the cheapest bracelet, which was not very valuable, and he could afford it.

"In that case," Qi Baye poured him a cup of hot tea, "then please come and hear it." ”

The man's hands kept rubbing back and forth, and his voice was still shaking, "I have encountered strange things, I think my father and mother are no longer human, they are monsters." ”

Qi Baye's eyes swept over him, and his voice asked lightly, "Where to start?" ”

"A few days ago, I was picked up to fight, it didn't look like a big fight, but it was a mausoleum where merchants were buried, and it was a double coffin burial, and the coffin was opened by me, and there were not many things in it, so we shared the spoils and parted ways."
