Chapter 488 The Other Half of the Map
My life is ultimately harder than that of Feng Yao's younger brother, and I saw the sun the next day.
My limbs are still sore and weak, but my spirits are obviously much better.
My body's recovery and warm environment made me feel comfortable and hummed twice, and then I suddenly came to my senses.
This is...my room?
Familiar furnishings, familiar sandalwood flavor.
That's right, it's my room!
Wushuang, who was sleeping on the edge of the kang, suddenly raised her head, and her scarlet eyes told me how tired he was during this period, but she was smiling brightly at this moment.
"Brother Jingzhe, are you awake?"
Wushuang was eager to try it, and opened his arms and was about to jump up to give me a hug. When he saw that my weak gust of wind could blow down, he stopped embarrassedly.
I was a little surprised: "This is..."
"Last night... we accidentally fell asleep, but when we woke up, we found that you were missing..."
Wushuang hung his head and felt that this was a bit incredible: "We were so anxious that I almost called the hospital person. I didn't stop all night until five or six o'clock in the morning. Dong Jian called us and said yes... You were actually sleeping on a meadow not far from the mountain gate, and then he picked you up."
Speaking of this, Wushuang paused, her eyes drifted to the wind chime beside her pillow, and she couldn't help asking: "Brother, what have you encountered? Could it be..."
He obviously suspected the existences in the wind chime. After all... this is one of the biggest weirdness in me. The wind chime is with me day and night, but there is no answer so far. The last time I was punished by God and lost my life. It was because of the wind chime that I was safe and I borrowed decades of life from Lao Bai.
Now that I encounter this kind of thing, I can’t help but think about it in this way.
"It turns out that it's not a dream after all. It turns out that you saved me."
I sighed in my heart. The strong contrast made me suspect that the things I remembered in my mind were hallucinations. Now I have found the answer. No wonder I felt that the scenery around me looked familiar last night. It turned out that Ban Yao took me back to Zhenwu Temple directly. She understood me and knew that the only thing in the world could make me feel at ease was here. I had already said that if I encountered something that could not be overcome, I would lie in the back mountain goose palpit cave to watch Zhenwu Temple and this only home.
I don’t want to say too many details, I just clicked the word “Zhu Yao” and Wushuang understood it.
In fact, he was only excited and probably had no time to think carefully. He rushed out in a hurry to report to Lao Bai and the others.
After my ears were cleared, I tried to call Feng Yao a few times, but it turned out like a rock sinking into the sea without any news.
I know that she is still there, but... as before, she refuses to pay attention to people, as if the person who said she wants to die with me last night was not her.
"This is a complicated woman, I will never understand and can't see through it."
I feel mixed feelings.
After falling asleep last night, I had a very strange dream. Sometimes a vague figure of a woman flashed away, and in a trance there was still a burst of fragrant flowers. Sometimes, the appearance of a smile on her face would appear again. The two revolve around each other, making me feel as if I was trapped in a whirlpool that I couldn't break free.
For some reason, this dream made me extremely frightened. I instinctively didn't dare to think about it carefully, as if I thought too much and would be doomed.
The noise woke me up from my inner world. Lao Bai and the others were crowded in a noisy way. Not long ago, they were still sad and bleak, but now they are laughing and laughing.
These are all real people. Living in our bizarre business, truth is very important.
So, I struggled out of the constraints in my heart, no longer thinking about what is there or not, the people in front of me are the most important, but gradually I became calm.
Traditional Chinese medicine is a very magical thing. Modern medical skills cannot be used. They have basically been sentenced to death. A few herbs were mashed and applied, and they were so miraculous.
Without cutting anything from the body, the pus and blood gradually discharged, and the wound that could not heal gradually became scabbed.
My physical condition is recovering day by day, which makes me interested in the medical skills in the Five Taoist Techniques. I once again took out the medical notes and books left by my master and his elders and carefully studied them.
The last time I was just looking for solutions to solve the problem. This time I was really devoted to studying and benefited a lot.
Time flies, and half a month passes in the blink of an eye.
I've gradually been able to get into the ground.
On this day, with Xiaozhi's support, I was walking around the yard. A thin man rushed in with a large bag of nutritional products.
"Haha, Brother Wei, good health, good things! good things!"
Before the person arrives, the sound arrives first.
However, when the thin monkey face gradually became clear, it made people feel at a loss, and it was difficult to associate that cheerful feeling with the treacherous appearance in front of them.
"Thank you, Brother Fu, for thinking about it."
I hugged the other party and said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "We are all people who are out of the way. We are very dull and helpless when we get down the mountain. We rely on you more. If you hadn't helped you say hello this time, I would have rather died at the entrance of the hospital than go in. How could I stand here and talk to you?"
"Hi, family, what are the two sayings?"
Fu Huicheng waved his hand and came up to help me sit down in the pavilion. Then he said, "Brother Wei, don't say such things in the future. If Sister Qing heard this, I'm afraid I'll have to peel my skin. Who made me not take care of you all the time? I have to wait for you to come to me when you have something to do."
As a broker, the least feared thing is to communicate with others.
Fu Huicheng is a master of this kind. Sitting with such a person, he will guarantee that he can hold the freshness of the day even if he talks nonsense for a day and will never make you feel bored.
The people from the entire Zhenwu Temple sat around the pavilion and listened to this guy talking. He had handled something like a treasure recently. He was just a puppet, but he could talk at night. There were no tape recorders in the Tang Dynasty at that time, but the doll was full of slang, which was obviously the voice left by people from that period.
I know what he said. It was mentioned in Yanshi's mechanism. There is no witchcraft method in it, and it is called Xuanyu.
Xuan is Xuan stone, but it is actually a magnet.
In some places, there will be shouting and killing sounds in the valleys on thunderstorms. This is the magnetic field and the natural environment that records ancient sounds. When the same situation occurs, the sound will reappear.
Xuanwu is the principle of picking, but the layout inside is very exquisite.
Fu Huicheng said some novel things one after another. In the blink of an eye, it was already noon. Wushuang made a few simple dishes and everyone sat together for a few cups. I saw that Fu Huicheng was about to continue talking, so I had no choice but to interrupt him.
"Brother Fu, let's just say something between us!"
I smiled and said, "You are not going to the Three Treasures Palace for nothing. We are all rough men who are heartless, so you don't have to be so gentle."
Fu Huicheng laughed and said that I was a discerning person.
I couldn't help but complain that this guy had no fart and his throat. I've been recuperating for a long time. How could I come to visit him when someone's injury is almost healed?
After thinking for a moment, I asked tentatively: "Is it because...there are clues to those two dragon spitting beads?"
I thought, this is probably the only thing that can make this guy so polite.
He practiced a very hurtful skill in his early years, leaving behind all injuries, but he was superstitious that the jade spirit toad in the tomb of Liu Quji, the King of Guangchuan, could cure all diseases. Unfortunately, Liu Quji is a big shot in the tomb robbery world, and the tomb is too difficult to find. The clue lies in the two jade beads that the Double Dragon Spit Pill Powder Bottle.
We found a jade bead in Li Siye's tomb, with half a map inside, and the other half disappeared.
We met in early autumn. This guy paid 2 million as a gang fee. Now we have spent the money, so I think it's time to get things done.
Sure enough, I started to start, and Fu Huicheng immediately got into a state. Without laughing, he said seriously: "That's right, I said last time that I have a look on the other half of the map, but it only takes some time to turn around."
We were solemn.
Fu Huicheng had a cup of soy sauce and said slowly: "Do you still remember the rag king I mentioned to you?"
Not long after this incident, how could we forget it?
The King of Doughnuts, a top collector in the industry, has very good eyesight and can tell at a glance that experts who pick up bargains, were all out of the way. Even Fu Huicheng was the same, but he was targeted by this King of Doughnuts. If this person hadn't had the reputation of picking up bargains and the boss of the auction house had a strong relationship with Fu Huicheng, he would have reminded us that we might have missed this matter!
"I heard of another map, but I have been tracing it for a long time, and there are always some ambiguous and unreliable news."
Fu Huicheng said leisurely: "Later, after thinking about it, I found the King of Drawn. This man is stable in doing things, not something that is almost certain, and he will not touch it. Since he touched it, he felt that he could eat. For half of the map for no reason, I would not believe it if he said he did not know the whereabouts of the other half. So, my brother persuaded him for a long time, and finally nodded and gave the clues."
Be kind to persuade?
I'm afraid it's a coercion and temptation!
I never think this guy is a good bird. The reputation of Tu Xingsun in the industry is very famous. He dug out the corpses of the 18th generation of his ancestors and hung them under the eaves to float back and forth. Is this kind of person a good bird?
But these have nothing to do with me, I didn't point them out, listen quietly.
"The last time a jade bead appeared was about thirty or forty years ago."
Fu Huicheng smiled and said, "As for reform and opening up, everyone has hope all of a sudden. People are rushing up. Those who are capable go into business and those who are not capable can only make some ill-gotten gains to complete the original accumulation.
One of them is the big boss in our industry.
Mark Liu, have you heard of this person?"
This is obviously an old senior. I was not born at that time, I hadn't heard of it.
There are only Brother Yaozi and Lao Bai in the old world here, and my eyes subconsciously floated towards these two people.
The two of them nodded together.
"This man is still alive?"
Brother Yaozi squinted his eyes slightly: "If it were this person, it would be interesting."
"The old and rough guy from the other end of Kansai used to be."
Lao Bai said, "I heard that it is called Liu Fusheng. I have handled a lot of treasures. At first, I went to dig it up by myself. Later, when I got the money, I ran to the other end of Hong Kong. I felt that my name was earthy, so I changed it to a foreign name, "Mark Liu," who was brave and cruel. I kept a bunch of children under my hands, all of whom were born in the 16th and 17th. I didn't know what fear was, I didn't know how many people were killed, and I dared to do any business. The mainland's black goods dared to ask for things at auction.
I heard that when the Eight-Nation Alliance burned the Old Summer Palace, the snake head of the twelve zodiac beast head entered a duke's home. This man sent the kids under his command to smuggle over, killing many people, and snatching this thing. To this day, the whereabouts of the snake head are still unknown, but everyone in the industry knows that it is in the hands of this Mark Liu! However, this man probably did too many evil things and has disappeared for more than 20 years. I don't know if he is alive or dead."
Fu Huicheng gave a thumbs up: "Master Bai, you are this. Not many people know about the snake head in the twelve zodiac signs, they are almost dead."
Lao Bai smiled disdainfully: "This is nothing. Those who are trying to make a living on the Qinhuai River have heard of it. Now the boss of the Hongmao on the flower boat has had a relationship with this Mark Liu back then. That's really generous..."
Fu Huicheng is not a vegetarian. How could he not know how twisted Lao Bai and Hong Madam are, how dare they take this? He is not us, let alone tease Lao Bai with Hong Madam, even if he mentions the black seedling toast Lao Bai, he will have to turn against him. After a change of the subject, he said directly: "The news about the rag king, Mark Liu should be gone, but the other bead in the Double Dragon Spit Pearl Bowl should have appeared on this man in the end. At a black auction in the high seas, the bead appeared, and the price was not high. He was bought by a British man. Mark Liu seemed to know the details. As soon as the British got on the yacht, he was cut to death by several children under his command. The bead must have been in his hands."
I felt that the smell was wrong, and I was worried that this guy would let us get angry with the people under Mark Liu, so I frowned and said, "We won't take the murderous job."
"Okay, my little brother, can I let you touch such a sting? "
Fu Huicheng raised his voice, just like the old madam who was welcoming guests in ancient times, which made people get goosebumps. Seeing that I was a little annoyed, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, the King of Dowels has taken my benefits. As the saying goes, I don't bother the second master, so I'll ask him all. He is familiar with Mark Liu. He has done it on the other end of Mark Liu. I guess there should be a letter in the past. I'm here to inform you a few. Don't take any other jobs in the past. Let's wait with peace of mind, the bead will soon have a whereabouts."
As he said that, he glanced at me and asked with some concern: "Brother Wei, your physical condition..."
"Don't fuck that useless heart, I'm fine."
Of course I wouldn't tell him that I finally managed to make a life, so as not to be looked down upon by me. As for this matter, I will be determined to get involved. If Xiao Zhi's body in his previous life was suppressed in the tomb of Liu Quji, King of Guangchuan, I would be able to make Xiao Zhi's soul reunite this time. Maybe... the secret of why Tao Wangqing was able to reincarnate the remnant soul back then was revealed.
Based on all this, I have to do it even if I can’t!
