Xun Kaihe stretched out his hand, patted Wang Lei's shoulder twice, and said with a smile: "Junior brother Wang, I really belong to you. You just took a second look and discovered the mystery hidden in this painting."
Wang Lei felt a little embarrassed to be praised like this.
"I just run around when I have nothing to do. When I saw this, I felt familiar. Then when I thought about it, I thought, hehe, senior brother is so impressed."
"Junior Brother Wang, please stop being modest. This is you. If it were me, even if I knew about Colorful Stone Peak, I would never have thought of it even if I looked at this painting for three days and three nights."
】
Gu Yuan saw that the senior brother was talking endlessly, so he quickly interrupted their conversation.
"Brother Xun, what's going on with this colorful stone peak?"
Xun Kaihe turned to look at Gu Yuan and said with a smile: "Colorful Stone Peak is not too far away from us. There are relatively few trees on the mountain. , Moreover, there are some special ores, especially those on the mountain side. When the sun comes out, the sunlight will shine on those ores and it will refract colorful phosphorescence, which seems to be some special substance, but it is of little use."
Gu Yuan suddenly realized.
"So there is such a place..."
"In the early years, there were a lot of ores on Colorful Stone Peak, but people always picked them up, processed them, and sold them as handicrafts. In fact, they didn't make much money, but there were less and less ores on the mountain. Wang Lei said, "If this were the case before, when the sun came out, the Colorful Stone Peak would still be quite spectacular."
Gu Yuan was thoughtful.
"By the way, Senior Brother Gu and Senior Brother Kong, are you going to Caishifeng? I can take you there. I've been to that place several times and I'm still very familiar with it." Wang Lei volunteered.
Kong Baihe looked at Gu Yuan. Gu Yuan thought for a moment and said, "Don't worry about this. Let's think about it first. If we decide to set off, how about calling you?"
"That's OK!" Wang Lei said with a smile, "If you go, just call me and I'll be there when you call!"
Taking the painting back to the yard, Kong Baihe asked Gu Yuan: "Do you think those Yamato people are hiding in the colorful stone peak?"
"I don't know." Gu Yuan shook his head, "There is still too little information now. However, we cannot rule out this possibility. Let's wait for Luo Tianhan to come back."
The two of them wanted to go to Colorful Stone Peak to find out, but now, Luo Tianhan was not in the Antarctic Gate, and the other party was the main person in charge of this mission.
You have to discuss it with the other party first, and then you can decide whether to go or not. the other side.
The breakfast shop where the Yao Si of Juxian Town is located.
Chang Jingyu drank tea slowly, and most of the people passing by the door would say hello to him, and Chang Jingyu would also smile in greeting.
For Chang Jingyu, this seems to be a very ordinary day. After finishing the breakfast shop in the morning, he then makes a cup of tea, sits quietly on a chair, looks at the people passing by, and says hello to them. Let’s chat and talk about our parents’ shortcomings.
Most of the people in this alley know this gentle breakfast shop owner. They are all neighbors. It is also part of life to sit down, play chess and chat when they have nothing to do.
Right now.
Long Zaiye hurriedly walked in.
His expression didn't look very good. After taking a breath, he looked towards the door and then said softly: "Captain, Azi, is she still there?" Haven’t come back?”
"Um."
"This... Captain, where did Azi go? Should we leave now?"
Chang Jingyu glanced at him and frowned, as if he was dissatisfied with Long Zaiye's current appearance.
He picked up the tea cup, gently blew away the top layer of tea leaves, took a slow sip, and said, "Of course she has other things to deal with, what's the hurry?"
Long Zaiye's face was still a little tense, and he would look towards the door from time to time, as if he was guarding against something.
…
In a small courtyard in the countryside.
The chickens raised in the yard were still walking comfortably in the yard, but suddenly they flapped their wings and flew up as if they sensed something. They only flew two or three meters and landed again. They were all clustered in the corner, as if they had encountered something. Natural enemies.
The old man who was cleaning the yard suddenly turned around and looked at the dilapidated door. The door was slowly pushed open, and a petite woman walked in with a smile.
In her hands, she was carrying large and small bags of various nutritional products, as if she was visiting relatives.
When the old man saw the petite girl, his expression immediately relaxed and a look of joy appeared on his face.
"Mom, I'm here to see you again." The petite girl said with a smile.
"Oh, you kid, you're just here, why are you carrying so many things? Have you eaten?" The old man hurried over, his tone full of blame.
The old man is still very familiar with Xiao Lizi.
She knew that Xiao Lizi was her son's former colleague and had come to her home several times. Especially after Song Kaihua's death, he also came to her home and received a lot of pensions, part of which were collected by these colleagues themselves. .
Especially after she was sent back to the countryside, Chang Jingyu brought Xiao Lizi and Long Zaiye to visit her in the countryside. He gave her a lot of things, most of which were firewood, rice, oil and salt. He also left his phone number so that she could have anything. If needed, call them anytime.
So in the old man's opinion, all of his son's colleagues during his lifetime were good people.
While asking Xiao Lizi to sit down, he said with a smile: "You are really thoughtful and still thinking about me. You sit down first and I will make you a cup of tea!"
"Yeah, okay." Xiao Lizi smiled and sat on the small bench, looking around.
Suddenly, Xiao Lizi heard the sound of a cup being broken from the house. She quickly stood up and walked into the house. When she saw the broken glass on the ground, she quickly helped the old man to the side and asked herself... ??????Bring a broom and clean it up.
"It's up to me, how can we let the guests do this?" the old man said quickly.
"Auntie, just sit down. Besides, I'm not a guest. Lao Song is no longer here. From now on, we are your children. If you need anything, just call us in time." Xiao Lizi said with a smile.
The old man's eyes were full of emotion.
"By the way, aunt, did anyone else come here today and ask some questions about Lao Song?" Xiao Lizi said casually.
When the old man heard this, he was not surprised. He smiled and nodded: "Yes, it's a young man here."
"Oh...then what did you say?" Xiao Lizi asked.
"Ah?" The old man thought seriously for a while and shook his head, "He didn't say anything. He just asked Kaihua if there was anything unusual before he left, so I told the truth. During that time, Kaihua often had nightmares. I also did some paintings.”
"Where are those paintings?" Xiao Lizi stopped what she was doing and asked.
"The young man took it away. What's wrong, you want it too? Then I will come back next time I see that young man." The old man said with a smile.
Xiao Lizi looked solemn.
"Besides these...is there anything else?"
The old man thought for a long time and shook his head.
"It's probably nothing. Well...it's just nothing. The boy got those paintings and left."
Xiao Lizi smiled and nodded slightly. When she passed by the old man again, she suddenly stretched out her hand and grabbed her throat.
"Auntie, Lao Song said it's cold down there and asked you to give him... a quilt."
