Where Shi Lao lives, there are many old courtyard houses around, but now they are all expensive but not marketable. People who can afford to live here are either rich or noble. Li Mo also wanted to get a small apartment, but he couldn't buy it.
The car stopped at the entrance of a medium-sized courtyard, attracting many hidden glances. Li Mo got out of the car and took a look at the end of the alley. There seemed to be a cross street with people coming and going.
"That is an old hutong street. It has long been developed into a tourist attraction. It is a very famous hutong cultural street. Have you visited it? If not, I will accompany you there later."
Qin Sirui stood beside him, and Li Mo could clearly smell the body fragrance emanating from her body. He felt a strange tranquility in his heart, and seemed to enjoy this moment.
"Is it appropriate for a big star like you to go there?"
"Celebrities are also human beings, there is nothing inappropriate about them."
"Xiao Mo, Sirui, what are you standing there talking about? Come here quickly." Mr. Qin waved to the two of them. The courtyard door had opened, and Shi Lao came out wearing a Tang suit. He looked energetic, with a rosy complexion and an upright body, as good as any young man.
"Hello, Grandpa Shi." Qin Sirui hurriedly walked over and saluted.
Li Mo followed her and saluted and shouted: "Hello, Grandpa Shi."
"Isn't this Xiao Mo? It's a rare visitor. Come in quickly."
Grandpa Shi smiled as he looked at the two young men and felt that they were a good match. Especially Li Mo himself. Although he doesn't have any prominent posture, he has made such a big reputation on his own at a young age, which is better than countless disciples from wealthy families.
The courtyard where Shi Lao lived was not as big as the Qin family's courtyard. It had one courtyard, one main room, two side rooms, and a total of six bedrooms. A grape trellis was set up in the middle of the courtyard, covered with branches and leaves. In the corner of the courtyard, an area was circled for growing some vegetables. The birds in the two birdcages were chirping and jumping happily.
Under the birdcage is a stone bench, and the white-haired kitten is lying lazily on it. From time to time, it turns over and glances at the suspended birdcage, wondering what it is thinking.
This medium-sized courtyard house is full of rich flavor of life.
"Mr. Qin, you came early today, do you want to play a few games with me?" Mr. Shi touched the white beard on his chin and asked with fighting spirit.
"With that kid here, the two of us will not make a fool of ourselves. But didn't you always say that there are several masters living in this alley? Later, you take Xiao Mo with you to kill their vigor."
Shi Laoyi clapped his hands and said, "What a great idea, it's settled. Xiao Mo, you have to give me some time to speak out."
"But Mr. Shi, even if you take Xiao Mo there and win them all, it's not fair. I think it's better for you to teach him a few Tai Chi moves. When they ask, you have the title of master and disciple after all, right?"
Everyone walked into the main hall, and the nanny served tea and fruits.
"Mr. Qin, there is something in your words. Tell me, what do you mean?"
"This kid suddenly came over today and wanted to learn Tai Chi from me. He said that he still had a treasure appraisal skill that he hadn't mastered yet and wanted to practice his strength to be softer. I thought it would be better to learn from you, so I brought him with me. Brought here." Mr. Qin pointed at Li Mo, "Do you like these muscles and bones?"
Shi Lao was a little moved. Li Mo had practiced martial arts since he was a child, so his muscles and bones were well tempered. The strength of Tai Chi is completely opposite to the strength of Baji Quan, but the principles of boxing are similar. If you teach them carefully, you can really inherit what you have learned throughout your life.
"I agree to this, Xiao Mo, come here when you are free, and I will teach you Tai Chi." Shi Lao was very straightforward. The children and grandchildren at home are not interested anyway, and now there are people who specifically want to ask for advice, so why not do it.
"Thank you Grandpa Shi."
Li Mo stood up and gave him a big salute.
"Sit down, don't worry about all the red tape here. I have something else I want to ask you about. What's going on with Xiang Yu's treasure now?"
Sure enough, everyone above is paying attention to the progress of the treasure project.
"The day after tomorrow, we will officially start the systematic identification process, mainly for the treasures hidden in the iron boxes. The twelve golden gongs have actually been identified, but the original two have become twelve, and the number is complete."
"As for the eighty-one stone soldiers, they will be moved out of the mountain and settled in the treasure hall after the renovation of Xiang Yu's treasure hall. I personally think that once the stone soldiers left by Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, appear in the world, Its shocking power and influence on the world will not be much inferior to that of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses of the First Emperor."
"Hey, when you say that, I feel really lucky. I can see the true face of Xiang Yu's treasure that has been passed down for two thousand years in my lifetime. This life is not in vain."
"Grandpa Shi, Grandpa Qin, when the Overlord Treasure Museum opens, I will be the first to invite you to visit it."
"It's okay, hahaha."
There was a burst of laughter in the hall.
While Li Mo was chatting, his eyes accidentally fell on many old photos on the east wall of the living room. He stood up and walked forward. It seemed that many of the old photos in the frames on the wall were yellowed and were at least thirty or forty years old.
There are photos of Shi Lao when he was young, old-fashioned black and white wedding photos, and a family photo. Among them, there were two old photos that aroused Li Mo's interest. One was a photo of two people. At that time, Shi Lao was about thirty, tall and mighty. He was holding a little girl of about two years old in his hands, with two faces. Everyone showed a happy smile.
The other photo should be of a family of four, a little boy, a little girl and their parents. They wear old-fashioned military uniforms, full of a strong sense of the times.
Li Mo stared at the two photos for a while.
"Xiao Mo, what are you looking at?"
Mr. Qin turned around and shouted.
"Grandma Shi was really a beauty when she was young." Li Mo sat back on the chair and said with a smile, "It's strange. When I look at Grandma Shi when she was young, I always feel a sense of déjà vu, as if I've seen her before somewhere. And that little girl looks very kind, she is almost the same model as Grandma Shi."
Mr. Qin's eyes changed slightly. He coughed twice and said in a low voice: "Li Mo, I want to play two games with Shi Lao. You and Sirui go out to the cultural festival in the alley not far away."
"It's okay, it's been so long, it's just a thought now."
At this time, Shi Lao waved his hand. He looked at the old photos on the east wall, his face full of nostalgia.
Li Mo suddenly knew that he had just said something he shouldn't have said. He looked at Mr. Qin, trying to find some answers from him, but Mr. Qin just shook his head slightly at him.
"Grandpa, you and Grandpa Shi will kill two games first. Li Mo and I will go out for a while. If you need anything, call me." Qin Sirui stood up and motioned to Li Mo to leave the house first.
"Go ahead, don't forget the time while playing, come back early and finish your meal."
Li Mo followed Sirui to the courtyard thoughtfully. He still hasn't figured out what he said wrongly just now.
"I'll tell you outside."
After the two walked out of the courtyard, Qin Sirui sighed softly and said, "That little girl is Grandpa Shi's daughter. She disappeared when she was three years old. Her whereabouts have not been found for so many years."
"What's going on?" Li Mo was shocked. No wonder when he mentioned the little girl, Mr. Qin and Mr. Shi both looked strange.
"I also heard my grandfather mention it once. Grandpa Shi was a soldier in the army when he was young. That year, Grandma Shi took her son and daughter to visit him. She never thought that a flood suddenly broke out that night, and many towns and villages were flooded. Grandpa Shi and the others were ordered to go out for rescue."
"But less than two hours after the troops left, the flood also reached the area where the military camp was located. That night, the girl disappeared."
Li Mo's mood suddenly became heavy. Grandpa Shi should have felt guilty and painful at that time. He took care of everyone, but failed to take care of the small family, so that his flesh and blood were separated.
"Are Grandpa Shi and the others still looking for him?"
Qin Sirui was also in a bad mood. She shook her head and said, "Many people died in the flood that year. What chance would a three-year-old girl have of surviving?"
