As the saying goes, there is a seal on the hair mound, and there is a talisman on the gold. Every orthodox Faqiu Heavenly Official has a "Faqiu Heavenly Seal", which is engraved with the words "The Heavenly Official gives blessings and there are no taboos". It is an irreplaceable divine object. It is said that with a seal in the hand, all ghosts and gods can avoid it. Unlike other tomb robbers, Faqiu likes to invite experienced comrades to join him. Make detailed plans in advance to deal with adverse situations that may arise during the process, and then implement them step by step to minimize risks.
Mojin Xiaowei and Faqiu Tianguan came from the same sect, and both were proficient in "Xunlong Jue" and "Yin Yang Feng Shui". Their methods were almost exactly the same, except that Faqiu Tianguan had an extra "Faqiu Tianguan". There are rumors that this seal was destroyed during the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty and no longer exists in the world. The last Faqiu Tianguan at that time was Huaihua, the ancestor of the Huai family. Also missing was the "Lingpu" which recorded the sixty-four-word search for the dragon. , much more powerful than the "Sixteen-Character Yin-Yang Feng Shui Secret Technique" used by Captain Mo Jin today.
But there are also rumors that Faqiu Tianyin disappeared as early as the Three Kingdoms period, and the key figure is none other than the master of Dou we fell - Meng Xing. Now it seems that the former statement is a fallacy, and the historical truth should be very different from the rumors.
I looked at the Fa Qiu Tian Seal up and down and said with a smile: "Old Ji, do you think this seal can really be put on the hand and all ghosts and gods can avoid it?"
Lao Ji shook his head, "This thing is just a token. With it, you are the legal head of the Faqiu Sect. Without it, no matter how senior you are, you will not have a strong back."
I smiled and said, "Then, if I sell it, how much would it probably cost?"
Lao Ji shook his head and said: "This seal is a rare treasure, not that it is valuable, but that its archaeological value is very high. If it is handed over to the archaeological team, it will be almost priceless, but you want to make a fortune from it. , it’s better to give up on this idea.”
I thought to myself that this was not in vain. We don’t do archeology. What’s the use of archaeological value? I can’t take this thing to the cultural relics management office to sell it.
"Then should I keep this thing in my hand or..."
Lao Ji shook his head and said: "I advise you not to act out of emotion. This thing is a disaster in your hands, but selling it is not an option. Once the Faqiu Seal reappears, it will definitely cause a stir."
"Don't scare me, okay? If I had known it would be a burden, why would we drive it?"
"These are all destined." Lao Ji sighed.
"What is fate? Do you know the inside story?"
Lao Ji shook his head and remained silent.
I was depressed after hearing this. I came to ask you what happened, but you didn't tell me. You also made such a bunch of seductive words. Wouldn't I want to know more? So I resorted to deceitful means and tried hard to get him to tell me.
Lao Ji was annoyed by my questioning, so he had to reveal something to me, "Actually, there is something I haven't told you. Sixty years ago, Shi Xiazi's group came to see my father in front of the mountain to steal the seal."
"Looking for your dad?" I was shocked.
"Their purpose is very clear, which is to find Long Taibao to help them fight. These people came from wrong ways, and your grandfather didn't want to deal with it. My father was cautious at that time and secretly investigated their background. The result of this investigation was that I'm with a family named Meng. That's why I agreed to fight you."
"Damn it, you didn't tell me such an important thing earlier, and you kept me guessing!"
"It's useless to know. Just relying on the existing clues, you can't tell who is the descendant of the Meng family."
According to Lao Ji, the boss behind this "pot" is named Meng. She is a woman and has a good background. His father used some connections and found out that her family had a deep connection with the Faqiu Sect. Adhering to the principle of not violating the river, he ultimately did not take the business.
I suddenly realized, "surnamed Meng?! Isn't that the descendant of Meng Xing who is here to hunt for treasure!"
"You are right to think so, but the crux of the matter is that since Meng Xing's death, the Faqiu Sect has been divided. For thousands of years, the Faqiu Sect has branched out. Do you know how many people are coveting this seal? So, regardless of whether the girl named Lin is a descendant of the Meng family or not, you'd better not spread the news that this mark is on your hands, otherwise, you will definitely get into big trouble. "
I nodded and said, "You're right, this hair mound mark is a hot potato. I'd better pretend that I've never seen it before."
"Also, don't tell anyone about this silk book. You can't tell anyone!"
"Don't worry, I'm not stupid!"
"It's a pity that the Tianyun Jade Armor couldn't be brought out, otherwise there might be more clues." Lao Ji sighed again.
I asked: "What can you find on the jade ring?"
"I had an intuition that Yan Yunshu was trying to hide something when she strangled Meng Xing to death, but her movements were too fast and I didn't see the flaw." Lao Ji recalled.
"What are you hiding? You mean she took something from the jade jacket? And this is what she really wants?" I followed his meaning.
Lao Ji nodded and said, "That's what I mean, but I checked carefully and found that the jade ring is intact, so I'm not sure whether my guess is correct or not."
I don’t know why, but after listening to Lao Ji’s guess, I felt that it was probably right. Yan Yunshu’s cover-up at the time was actually not very clever. Whether it was the story she told or the behavior she did, there were many The only flaw was that we didn't pay attention at the time and were fooled by her.
"Then what are you going to do next?" I asked.
"Lao Xuan died in Yinshan, and he became a victim to Yan Yunshu. I must remember this hatred on her." Lao Ji said harshly, "I don't want to do anything to her, but I can't let her Lao Xuan died so mysteriously, and if we don’t figure it out, I will be embarrassed to see him when I get down there in the future.”
Speaking of Lao Xuan, I couldn't help but burst into tears, "Lao Ji, Lao Xuan died because of him, and I should be the one who feels sorry for him!"
"At this point, there is no other way but to continue the investigation." Lao Ji said firmly, "I can't monitor Yan Yunshu's whereabouts, but Mu Yunhe, that old fox, can't escape. I have asked people to secretly monitor her whereabouts. Keep an eye on him, there will always be a day when he shows his fox tail."
I thought that after this incident was over, Lao Ji would no longer get involved, but I didn't expect that he would be so determined this time, which actually changed my view of him.
Life is dull again. For two months, I kept my little shop and lived a tight life. Lao Ji has never been here since he came once. Sometimes I will call him and have a chat, but most of the time we don't bother each other.
I was idle and bored that day, thinking that I hadn’t seen Lao Qi for a long time, so I planned to go to the tomb to see him. Although this guy was not kind before, he was forced to do so after all. Moreover, he was put under house arrest by Yan Yunshu at that time, and he was also frightened. It was time to go visit him.
After taking the bus for two hours, I came to Zhongxie, covered with travel. Before he could enter, he saw five or six people dressed as migrant workers walking angrily into Lao Qi's home. One of them was carrying a sack and forced him down the doorstep.
"Oh, let me go, do you wear your eyes when you go out?" I was about to go up to argue, but the guy carrying the sack probably didn't see me, because the sack was really big and filled to the brim. See me behind.
"I..." I watched a group of people rushing inside, and I immediately realized in my mind: "What's going on with this group of people? What are they doing at Lao Qi's house? Looking for migrant workers to repair? But they don't look like this. Those who do maintenance work, they seem to be asking for wages!"
So I followed him. As soon as I entered, I saw a middle-aged man wearing a denim jacket and camouflage military trousers. He shouted at the top of his voice: "We are here to do business. Call Boss Qi to come out and go!"
He is about 1.75 meters tall. From his lower body and upper body, he looks like someone who has been engaged in physical labor all year round. His denim jacket was stained with cement slurry and oil, and his camouflage pants were standard equipment for migrant workers. Judging from their appearance, this group of people might actually be migrant workers.
"Are these migrant workers here to do business with Lao Qi? Are they here to resell stolen goods?" I couldn't help but wonder.
"I'm sorry, sir. My husband is not at home, and we have channels for purchasing goods. In your situation, we do not do business." A middle-aged woman explained politely. She seemed to be Lao Qi's wife. .
"What are you talking about? Do you look down on our things or do you look down on our brothers?" As he said this, the man became anxious.
However, Lao Qi's wife can be considered an experienced woman. The man roared, but she remained calm and said with a smile: "If you insist on doing this business, it's not impossible, but we won't accept unclean things, and we don't want things from unknown sources. You If you can do these two things, I will take all the orders today!"
I felt happy in my heart, "Oh, that's awesome, sister-in-law, what do I think you will do this time?"
The man was stunned for a moment, then smiled unnaturally on his face and said, "Okay, okay, of course our thing comes from the right place. If you don't believe it, you...can you inspect it first?"
"Inspection?" When I heard this, I was so embarrassed that I didn't laugh out loud. I thought to myself: "It seems that these people are still newbies. They really don't understand the incisions in this antique business. Then just use your hands and eyes. You are just a little expert." , now that the wind is so tight, and you still dare to commit crimes against the wind, no one else would dare to do business with you."
Lao Qi's wife smiled nonchalantly, and saw another younger man opening the sacks together with the man who came in carrying the sacks before, and they fell to the ground in a ping-pong-pang-pang-pang-pang-pang-pang pattern, all over the floor. I glanced at it secretly and thought to myself: "Oh, there are quite a lot of these things. I mean, you guys, this is how you treat the fruits of your labor. Don't you feel bad if you break them?"
The behavior of these people was neither light nor heavy, and there was no sense of propriety. Just when it was poured out, a bronze goblet broke a foot, and the man threw it out the door without saying a word. Lao Qi's wife looked at them with disdain, coughed slightly, and said, "How many of you? What do you mean?"
"What do you mean? What do you think of these things? How much are they worth? Do you want them?"
"I said, we don't accept unclean things, and we don't want things that come from unknown sources."
The middle-aged man lowered his head and exhaled impatiently, stared at her, stretched out his finger, and said: "Okay, okay, are you looking down on us? You are not the only store in the world. Let's wait and see." .”
