Although Lin Xiaoyu is not deeply involved in the world, she is very exciting. When things have developed to this point, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the reason why Yan Yunshu does not let her go is not just for the "Picture of the King Sending His Son".
But for what purpose? I don't know, I can only take one step at a time. Seeing Lin Xiaoyu innocently being implicated, I couldn't let it go, but I knew I couldn't change the outcome, so I had to comfort him: "Ms. Lin, now that Mr. Yan has spoken, I can't help. We are destined, otherwise you would condescend to stay a little longer. sky?"
"Aunt Yan, you know very well that I don't have the picture of the King sending his son. Besides, if you leave me here, I can't find the picture, so this is simply impossible." Lin Xiaoyu said aggrievedly , "You might as well tell me directly what you want from me!"
"The little girl is very sharp-tongued," Yan Yunshu said with a smile, "However, I can't tell you now. When the time comes, you will naturally know."
Those who look for dragons in the mountains will have a saying: "Look for dragons and pay money to look at the mountains. One layer of entanglement is a layer of barrier. If there are eight layers of danger in closing the door, the Yin and Yang Bagua shapes will not come out." It means that the tomb is surrounded by mountains one after another. This is because the ancients set up tombs for royal nobles, which are geomantic treasures. Because most of them are located in very dangerous terrain, and there are many secret mechanisms in the tombs, it is difficult for tomb robbers to find and approach them. These mechanisms and terrain are all set according to the Bagua formation, which means that the entrance to the tomb can be unlocked using the Bagua formation, which is where the door of life can be found.
Our ancestors of the Li family all called themselves the Taibao of the Dragon Seeking Dragon, which in today’s terms is hereditary. Grandpa knew his future career since he was a child, and he learned almost all the skills from his great-great-grandfather. Thanks to his education, he was able to record some of his experiences. Therefore, those notes are considered a family heirloom of my family. One of my grandfather's eyes went blind after that incident. He later received a prosthetic eye and was nicknamed "One-Eyed Plum." This is true. Nowadays, people of the older generation in the Jiangnan area know this name.
When I was a child, I often peeked at my grandfather's diary and was always curious about the anecdotes recorded in it. I often pestered my grandfather and begged him to tell me his stories. When he is in a good mood, he is willing to talk a little, but if he is in a bad mood or does not want to mention the matter, he will not say a word at all. And the incident in Yinshan is one of them. Finally, as I grew older, I gradually lost the curiosity of childhood.
After sending Yan Yunshu and Mu Yunhe away, they arranged for Lin Xiaoyu to arrive at the hotel. It was already past three in the morning when they came back. When I was about to close the door, I received a text message. I opened it and saw that it was from Lao Ji.
In terms of seniority, I would like to call Lao Ji Yiyi Fourth Master. He is a collateral nephew of my great-grandfather. He is the same generation as my grandfather, but he is about the same age as my dad. He is the only one in my family who is still engaged in tomb robbing. People who do this kind of thing. In ancient times, Bo, Zhong, Shu, and Ji were used to express the ranking order among brothers. Bo was the eldest, Zhong was the second, and Uncle was the third. Ji was the youngest, so everyone called him Lao Ji.
Lao Ji relied on his seniority and often boasted that he made his debut earlier than anyone else. He started working alone at the age of six and was already famous among the eight sects at the age of ten. He could be said to be a born tomb robber. However, this tomb robber has basically stopped working now. According to several of his men, in the past few years, he would occasionally go to the tomb to pick things by himself. In recent years, he has been free to concentrate on robbing. It seems that he is getting older. It’s too big to be unconvinced.
I opened his text message, thinking he was going to ask me to eat, but unexpectedly he just said: "Five o'clock corneyes and yellow sand."
This is the code word in our line, which means that new products have arrived and I have to pick them out. Many people think that this kind of "horse play" is done in the middle of the night when no one is around. In fact, the genius before dawn is the darkest. Lao Ji was very popular in the antique circle. He was a giant among the native masters in the south of the Yangtze River. He had many apprentices. It may be that some of them built another tomb and brought the things to Shaoxing. I was thinking about whether to go, and then I received another message: "There is a dragon on the back, come quickly!"
He was involved in a dispute for no reason. I really wasn't in the mood to watch it. But when he said there was a dragon's back, my eyes lit up. This dragon's back meant there was a treasure. Lao Ji's vision was surprisingly high. Even he They all think it is a good thing, but it is probably really a rare treasure. If you miss this opportunity, it will be gone.
I immediately made up my mind, closed the door of the store, and rode my 28-inch big bar straight to Lao Ji's place. His place is packed with people when it's time to go shopping. If you go there too late, there may be nothing left. But I rode the bicycle, and it was already an hour later. As soon as I put down my legs, I heard him shouting from the top, "You bastard, hurry up. You've been dawdling for a long time, and now there's another one." It’s useless!”
I was already feeling cold, but after hearing what he said, I knew that the things must have been sold, so I said, "No, Lao Ji, leave the good things to me too, you sold them too fast."
"That's what you called Lao Ji's damn name? Believe it or not, I asked your father to break your legs." Lao Ji puffed his beard and glared, "If you knew it was a good thing, you wouldn't have come faster. I was the first one to inform you. of!"
I sighed and didn't want to explain. At this time, a young woman walked out of the main entrance, carrying a cylindrical leather box on her back. This thing is not uncommon. It is often seen in martial arts movies. It is called a sword box and is used to store swords or swords. However, leather products cannot be preserved for a long time underground. I concluded that this sword box should be a later accessory, and what is contained in it should be the dragon's back.
I pointed to the thing on the woman's back. Lao Ji nodded and made a helpless gesture. They come prepared. Even if I arrive in time, there is a high probability that this dragon's back will not be my turn. After a busy day of work, I was about to go back the way I came. Lao Ji asked me to wait again, saying that there were many people upstairs picking things in the warehouse and asked me to come up and help collect the money. I didn’t think about it at night. If something happens, just go up and join in the fun.
After finishing the matter, I made a cup of Zhuji Tongshan Shao, and while drinking it with him, I told him that Yan Yunshu and Mu Yunhe came to see me today. I said it as a joke, but I didn’t expect him to tut after hearing it: "Yan Yunshu is a big shot in the collecting world, how could she condescend to come to your small temple? No, I'm afraid there is Lei here. ah."
"Thunder is certain." I took a sip of wine. "They are going to the Song Dynasty tomb on Yinshan Mountain because of the incident sixty years ago."
"Yin Shan?" Lao Ji slapped the table, "Your grandfather almost lost his life back then. Don't do anything wrong."
I smiled and said, "The danger is secondary, but the medicine sold in this gourd is really annoying."
"What else did they say?"
"They didn't say anything else, but they showed me something."
As I said that, I took out my phone and said, "Look, it's this brass key."
Lao Ji's face was flushed and he was already in the mood. When he saw the brass key, his expression suddenly changed.
"What's wrong? What's wrong with this thing?"
He frowned and said, "I told you, kid, to learn more from me, but you just don't listen. Anyone with a discerning eye can see this at a glance. This is a key."
"Fuck you, did I not know this was a key!" I really wanted to lift my leg and give him a kick, but then I thought about it. With Lao Ji's experience, I wouldn't have said such a mindless thing. I'm afraid this "Key" has another meaning.
I looked at the mottled rust on the key, then looked at Lao Ji's expression, and asked, "Don't be so secretive. If you know anything, just tell me quickly."
While scolding me, Lao Ji took out a magnifying glass to look at this thing and said that it was called Canglong Qisu Key, which was specially used to open Qiqiao exquisite locks. As for the seven exquisite locks, they are usually installed in ancient tombs. The design is extremely exquisite. Without the Canglong Qisu key, or if one of them is missing, it will definitely not be opened. Even with today's most advanced computers, it will not be possible. Figure out the exact way to pick a lock.
Each Canglong Qisu key looks very ordinary, with some irregular lines engraved on it, but in fact it contains very rich information. It is a "code lock" designed by skilled craftsmen in ancient times. I said you don't know a few Chinese characters, how did you hear these skills? He said it's not learned, it's experienced.
I burst out laughing after hearing this. This old Ji has a reckless character. He is closest to my grandfather in terms of character and his ability to brag is top-notch. I guess this Canglong Qisuyao must have been told to him by a few of his friends. He actually understands it. How much is still a question.
Lao Ji stared at the brass key and said to himself: "I don't know where Yan Yunshu got this thing. Why have I never come across it? I really got a bargain this time."
"You don't care where she came from, I'm asking you, is this thing the same as the one my grandfather found in the Yinshan Tomb?"
Lao Ji frowned and looked at it for a long time, then said: "The reason why this Canglong Qisu Key is called Qisu means that there should be seven of them! You only have one, how can I tell. However, since others have taken When it throws stones to ask for directions, it means that it should belong to one of the seven."
"Hey, you have a lot of things to do, so you said some nonsense." I quickly asked, "If I get you seven handfuls, can you open them?"
Lao Ji shook his head and said: "I'm not bragging. Behind the Qiqiao exquisite locks, there are extremely dangerous mechanisms. If there is a slight mistake, you will definitely die. I don't want you, Fourth Master, to die young. But, this Since the tomb has been taken care of by Yan Yunshu, it must be a good cave. This kind of temptation cannot be eliminated by money, and the attraction to tomb robbers is naturally infinite. I think it is worth a visit."
When I heard that Lao Ji was also interested in this tomb, my heart started to twist. I was lacking a capable helper, and he took the initiative to sign up, so why should I be polite to him? With him here, I can rest assured. If nothing else, this guy's tomb robbing skills are definitely better than mine.
So I played hard to get and said, "Fourth Master, do you really want to go?"
"Go, why don't you go."
"Hey, but you also know that my father is determined to get me off the bottom completely. When I was a child, I just used a needle shovel to stick fish in the river, but he didn't kill him after checking. So, I'm afraid..."
