Two hours later, the two of them left the tea shop, and Ma Mo went to the post house. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Info watched Ma Mo's back walk away, and Chris turned around and walked towards Jufeng Building.

At this time, the shops on both sides of the street have been opened, and in many shops, the guys are busy opening the door panels, and then hanging up the signboards, a busy scene, and there are more pedestrians on the street. Chris noticed that the decoration of the shop here was much better than that of other places, and she couldn't help but look inside the store and found that the whole street was selling antiques, calligraphy and paintings.

A large cart slowly passed in front of Chris, and a man sat behind it.

She knew this person, she had only seen it last night, it was the old three fat sheep of Sanwangzhai, obviously the other party also saw her, and actually jumped out of the carriage and walked over to her.

"Fat sheep!"

Fat Yang was not angry when she heard her call herself like this, but sighed: "Childe, I just happened to be looking for you!"

"Looking for me?" Chris was a little surprised, "what are you looking for me?"

Fat Yang said sadly: "I just want to inform my son-in-law that my second brother is injured at the critical level, and the doctor has not saved him, and he has passed away." ”

"The dwarf cow is dead?" she thought for a moment, "hasn't that kid become a murderer and is going to be sued?"

Fat Yang shook his head and said: "This matter is actually that we were wrong first, and now there are two lives, which is really sad and sad." My eldest brother went back to the village, and he was afraid that things would get out of hand, but unfortunately the second brother was a quick temper, and I couldn't pull it...... Alas!" He sighed heavily and said, "Now that this matter is in my hands, I am willing to settle the matter and not sue the official, which is also a life!"

Chris nodded and said, "That's fine." ”

Before she could finish speaking, the fat sheep suddenly knelt down for her.

"What is this for?"

"Childe, my three brothers are sworn brothers on their ancestors, who knew that this happened, the second brother is gone, the eldest brother doesn't care, my heart has long been cold. This incident is a lesson, I feel that if I sit in the Three Kings Village every day, I will be a frog at the bottom of the well for a lifetime, doing nothing for the rest of my life. I hope that Gongzi will take him in, and the fat sheep is willing to be an envoy to Gongzi and serve Gongzi, which is better than the nominal Sanzhai master!"

I didn't expect Fat Sheep to be quite inspirational, Chris asked, "Why do you want to follow me?"

"Because you are my nobleman. Fat Sheep said: "Fat Sheep is not talented, will have some face-to-face skills, I see that the son is 'dragon leaping all over the world, Fengming three mountains', Fat Sheep thinks that this phase of the world is over, no longer seen! If the son does not accept me, I will kneel and die here." ”

Chris raised her eyebrows, how could she come across these fortune-telling prophecies today, there is always no shortage of such stories in ancient and modern China and abroad, she learned in her heart that Ma Mo looked like she said: True and false, she smiled and said, "You get up first!"

Although the fat sheep said that he would kneel to death, he got up neatly and did not entangle.

Chris said: "That kid seems to hate you to the bone, he said that he wants to worship me as a teacher, what is the matter if I accept you?"

The fat sheep still said firmly: "I followed the son, this life is the son's, if the orphan son of the Wang family still wants to take my life, as long as the son asks me to compensate him, he will kill me, and I will not have a word of complaint." He paused and said, "Besides, that child is not an unkind person, nor is he as unthinkable as his father, and with persuasion and comfort, maybe he can calm the hatred in his heart, I am willing to try." ”

Chris considered the fat sheep's words, and neither said yes nor no.

Seeing that Chris was silent, Fat Yang felt hopeful, and said hurriedly: "Childe, where do you want to go?"

Chris obviously has a good impression of Fat Sheep, and she laughs, "I'm idle, and I'm just trying to walk around this street." ”

Fat Sheep originally liked gold and stone antiques, he couldn't be more familiar with this street, and said busily: "The little one is a local, and he is very familiar with this place, so can he accompany the son to go around here?"

This fat sheep is really not bragging, he has been constantly introducing Chris to the shops on both sides of the street, what kind of goods they sell, what the owner is like, how expensive and cheap, etc., Chris listens to it with relish. Fat Yang said: "Childe, the shops on this street have big facades and expensive prices, but they are actually all deceitful laymen; if you really want to buy something, it is better to go to that secluded side street, some small shops can buy good things, and the price is also fair." ”

Chris thought that Fat Sheep was right, so he said, "Then let's go to those little shops." ”

They walked down the street deeper into a narrow alley, where Chris saw a rainbow-colored flag hanging from shop to shop. It reminded her of San Francisco's Castro Avenue, where every shop was draped with rainbow flags, which in modern times were a sign of homosexuality. Since Mark's friends lived nearby, Mark used to take Chris with him to visit his same-sex couples, who would gather for dinner at a restaurant on Castro Street. Diagonally across from the small second floor of the famous Milk (1) photo studio, there is an antique shop that Chris is quite fond of. The owner of the shop is an old man with silver hair and a German accent, neat and standardized furnishings, and a serious and cautious attitude, which makes you feel that in such a palm-sized shop, you are receiving five-star treatment, of course, as long as you ignore the nude portraits of men and some "odd shapes" statues in the store, you can still find some fine products in it, such as Chinese porcelain, Egyptian gold jewelry, Bohemian crystals......

When Chris entered the store, the owner turned out to be an old man with white hair, wearing a shabby dress, and he lowered his head to clean the silverware in his hands, and did not even raise his eyes when the customer came to the door.

Without the store's overly enthusiastic service, Chris finally returned to a comfortable shopping mode. The shop was a long room, with a counter on the left side of the door, a staircase on the right, tied to a thick and polished straw rope, on which was hung a sign "Stop", and at first glance it was clear that the owner lived on the second floor of the shop, and Chris understood that this antique shop must be his whole world. Chris carefully walked through the piles of antiques, the shelves, the walls, the floor, and wherever she could put things were stuffed to the brim, and she seemed to smell the old. The further you go inside, the narrower it gets, and in the middle of the room at the back there are large bookshelves that are full of ancient calligraphy and paintings, so that you have to turn sideways to pass. After Chris turned around, she noticed that although the room seemed to be disorganized, it had its own rules, and the boss did not arrange them by time, but by category.

A wood carving Guanyin in the corner caught Chris's attention, because the wood is perishable, and there are very few objects left in this world, she got closer to see clearly, and with a "bang", she touched something under her feet. Looking down, it turned out that there were some wooden boxes stacked next to the statue of Guanyin, Chris was just about to lean over to pick them up, the stack of wooden boxes staggered and fell down diagonally, she was shocked, this place plays dominoes, isn't it fatal! She was quick with her hands and eyes, and she desperately held all the boxes in her arms. Only one plank slipped out from the side, but fortunately the fat sheep took the handle at the critical moment and held the plank down.

Chris let out a sigh and quickly stacked the wooden boxes back in place one by one, and the fat sheep handed over the piece in his hand.

Chris glanced at the plank in his hand, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

That's a good thing!

She looked closely, it was a rectangular wooden board, and inside the board was inlaid with small square wooden blocks, which were engraved with Chinese characters, but the characters were reversed. In the center of the plank, there are two slightly wide wooden troughs, one horizontal and one vertical, which form a cross shape, dividing the many small wooden blocks into four sections, each group of five horizontal rows and six vertical columns. There are also several black wooden blocks in the wide wooden trough. Chris tried to move the small black pieces of wood, but they didn't move.

Fat Yang asked curiously, "Childe, what is this?"

Chris didn't answer his question, looking intently at the treasure in his hand, and showed a smile that he hadn't seen in a long time.

Holding the plank, happily finding the boss, Chris eagerly asked: "Boss, I want to buy this, you make a price." ”

The old man glanced up at the plank in her hand, but immediately lowered his head and continued his work of cleaning.

Fat Yang thought to himself: Why did this old man ignore it, did he sell it or not?

Chris waited patiently for an offer.

The old man finally finished it, he used his wrinkled hands to insert the polished silver ring into a velvet brocade box, put it in the wall cabinet behind him, he wiped his hands again, and then took the wooden board in Chris's hand, looked at it, checked it, and then said: "Fifty taels of silver!"

"What?" Fat Sheep glanced at Chris, and said angrily, "You want fifty taels for this piece of broken wood?" I see that you haven't opened for half a year, and you want to open for half a year, right?"

Unexpectedly, Chris said: "Deal!" Fat Sheep wanted to show himself in front of Chris and bargain well, but Chris bought it in one bite, he had never seen Chris's way of acting, and he couldn't say anything more when he was surprised.

The old man's expression was flat, and he drew a few pieces of oiled paper from the counter, wrapped the wooden board, wrapped it and tied it with straw rope, and finally handed it to Chris.

Chris handed over the money with one hand and delivered the goods with the other, and stuffed the silver ticket to him.

After receiving the silver ticket, the old man's hand paused, and then said, "It's too much, I don't have to look for it!"

The fat sheep saw that it was a silver ticket of one hundred taels.

Chris smiled and said: "The fifty taels are the money for the purchase, and the other fifty taels are the tips I gave, please smile, I like this store very much, if I come again next time, I hope this store is still here." ”

The fat sheep's mouth opened a few times, and finally he couldn't help but speak, although he was never soft on spending money in Qingzhou City, but he didn't dare to squander it like this!

The old man was still indifferent, only his eyebrows were raised, and if he didn't look closely, no one could notice that his expression had changed like this. He put away the silver ticket, took a silver plate from the wall cabinet behind him, and continued to get busy.

Chris was holding the baby he bought, and his heart was full of joy. Fat Sheep wanted to take the burden, but Chris insisted on carrying it herself, and she carried the package and walked back down the alley to the street. Who knew that just out of the street, the guy from an antique store next to him happened to splash a basin of water on the street, Chris quickly jumped back, and unconsciously, her feet moved, using the "mayfly step".

The fat sheep behind didn't see Chris's movements at all, and in the blink of an eye, she had flashed past the door of the store and jumped to the center of the street, as fast as a ghost.

Chris looked down at his body, but it was not wet, but he heard the fat sheep exclaim: "Be careful!" Chris only felt something hit his back, and then he heard someone shout: "Which one doesn't have long eyes!

At this time, the fat sheep in the distance cried out in his heart, because he knew that it was a person from Xianyue Valley!

As soon as Chris turned around, there were six young men with double hair and black hair hanging down his shoulders, all of them were wearing lake blue robes, the materials and colors were extremely elegant, the waist was tied with variegated silk silk, and there was also a flawless white jade bi, and a pair of delicate white hands were holding a jade box, looking like a fairy child of the Heavenly Palace.

The boy who fell was very pale, not pale, but miserable.

The other boys' faces were the same.

The boy didn't bother to get up, grabbed something from the jade box, and threw it on the ground again.

The jade box was carved from a whole piece of jade, carved with hollow carvings, very exquisite, but now it was thrown on the ground by the boy and ignored, and the priceless things in other people's homes seemed to be a cinder in his eyes. The boy held the thing in his hand, his hands trembling, and his mouth cried out, "It's over!"

What the hell is inside the jade box? Chris muttered.

The boy looked up and glared at Chris with tears in his eyes.

Chris has always eaten soft rather than hard, looking at all the beautiful boys crying and mourning, as if the sky was about to fall, her tone softened first: "I didn't mean to hit you, what is so precious, I can't compensate you!"

The boy who fell to the ground cried out, "Can you afford to pay?"

"This ...... I'll try!"

The other two boys squatted down to help him, but he couldn't afford it, and said, "This time the master will die in a hurry, how can I explain it." ”

Chris looked back at Fat Sheep to figure out what he was getting into trouble.

The fat sheep stepped forward and bowed down and said, "A few fairy children, how many offends ......"

"It's broken, it's useless to say anything!" said an older boy, interrupting what the fat sheep was about to say, and he leaned down and muttered something to a few people.

On the boundary of Qingzhou, Sanwangzhai is the difference between the nouveau riche and the ancient aristocracy compared to Xianyue Valley, and the influence of Xianyue Valley is deeply rooted in the entire Shandong Peninsula.

The fat sheep has no confidence, Chris has a heart, I'll see what kind of rare thing is broken! She walked over and squatted down, and now she saw clearly, the boy had a piece of silk on the placket, and there were some black shards in it, and before the shape was broken, it should be a palm-sized pottery bowl.

The boy who fell grinned and said: "Longshan black pottery is a priceless treasure in the eyes of the master, what compensation do you take!"

Chris was very unhappy with their attitude, she said angrily: "What a broken bowl, it looks like a fake!"

"Why do you say it's fake?"

"I say it's a fake, it's a fake, I don't tell people who don't know the goods!"

Why, Chris doesn't know how to appreciate pottery, she is completely unscrupulous and nonsense.

The boys were so deceived by her deception that they looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

was still the oldest boy, and said: "Since the son said that this is a fake, please go with us to Xianyue Valley and explain it to my master face to face, as for whether to compensate or not, how to compensate, my master will naturally have a decision at that time." ”

Chris thought about it, he really deserves to be at a loss, it is better to go with a few of them, hoping that their master is a reasonable person.

"Please!"

Seeing that Chris was about to go with them, Fat Sheep wanted to follow.

The three boys standing behind him stood in front of the fat sheep, and one of them said: "This matter is not the turn of the people of Sanwangzhai, Your Excellency, please go back." ”

As soon as they came out of sight, Fat Sheep found that someone patted him on the shoulder, and when he looked back, he saw that it was the person who was with Childe last night.

Xiong Daiying said, "Are they from Xianyue Valley?"

Fat Sheep nodded.

"You go to Jufeng Building to inform the bearded guest who is with us, saying that the son is in trouble, let him come to the rescue quickly!"

The fat sheep nodded thoughtfully, and when he looked up again, the figure in front of him was gone. At this time, he didn't care about wiping his sweat, so he ran quickly in the direction of Jufeng Building.
