The world of mortals is just right

Jiang Huan walked out of the bar and walked to the entrance of the alley with his hands in his pockets. A black limousine was waiting there.

He came out because he received a text message, and since someone had something to say, he listened to it.

Jiang Huan opened the door and sat in the back seat. As the car started to drive, the shadows of the surrounding trees flitted across the body.

The curtains were drawn inside the car, so the outside could not be seen.The soundproofing is very good, you can't hear the street noise.There is a partition between the passenger and the driver, and a screen is hung on the partition, and the screen is not turned on.

Across the rear center armrest, the middle-aged man who introduced the knife yesterday smiled at him friendly and handed him a business card.

"Hi, my name is Liu."

Jiang Huan glanced at it, and it turned out that it was not Mr. Liu, "Professor Liu."

Professor Liu was a little embarrassed, "Don't dare to take it, just do some research. Mr. Jiang is a young talent, and I heard he came back from Wall Street."

Jiang Huan smiled at him, pretending to be puzzled and sarcastic, "Since when do you have to hear about the things you find out?"

Of course he was investigated, one day is enough to investigate his past.He knew what the other party could find out and what he would think of him, so he resigned and appeared as Xuan Chang's lover a few months later.

Jiang Huan simply aggravated the misunderstanding, "Others see me as if I have fallen into the water, but I think I am on the shore. Wall Street sells my brain and my body, at least I only sell my body now. And selling to Xuan Chang, I think I have made a profit."

Professor Liu had nothing to say for a moment, and he had never seen someone who spoke so confidently about coming out to sell.

But he also realized that Jiang Huan was impatient to follow him step by step. When the car stopped, Professor Liu said, "I take the liberty to invite you here because of this thing in your hand...I really didn't expect that one day I would be able to see the real thing with my own eyes. .”

Jiang Huan squinted at his wrist, and Professor Liu couldn't help looking at it too, fascinated, his face full of obsession.

Jiang Huan sneered, tore off the red rope, and held it in his hand.Professor Liu just woke up, moved his eyes away, cleared his throat, "This is a piece of reverse scale."

Without a word, Jiang Huan raised his eyebrows and shrugged.

Professor Liu could see from his expression that he didn't understand at all, so he was sad for a while, but continued.Let’s start with one plus one equals two.

"In our history, it is usually the dynasties whose founders cleared up, achieved great unification, and ruled for a long time. Everyone knows. Some dynasties, or regimes that have not achieved great unification, are unfamiliar to many people. .One of the dynasties, the Xuan Dynasty, is currently recognized as having ruled for less than 40 years..."

There were only two emperors in this dynasty. The first one started a family and served as emperor for more than ten years. After the prince died, the throne was passed on to his grandson.

His grandson was the last emperor, and when he was in his 20s, he was codified by a courtier A. The world was in chaos for a while, the coddled courtier A was killed, and the courtier B who killed him took the throne, and finally started a decent dynasty that ruled the world for more than 200 years.

Professor Liu said, "The most special thing about the Xuan Dynasty is their worship of dragons."

Jiang Huan interrupted, "Don't all emperors worship dragons, do they still think they are dragons?"

Professor Liu stopped, thought for a while, and put it another way, "I can only say that the Xuan Dynasty is for real."

Other dynasties would make up legends about dreaming of dragons, or even about grandma and mother befriending dragons, the main purpose of which is to create momentum.

The Xuan Dynasty really worshiped the dragon as an ancestor, and believed that the mother of Xuan Taizu had a son with the dragon.Professor Liu added, "And they have a very strange perception. They think that the real dragon is dead. There are no more dragons in the world."

Jiang Huan listened, Professor Liu lectured too much, eloquently, he listened several times to pull him to the topic.Later, when I thought about it, Ni Lin's name was related to dragons, so I endured it.

After Professor Liu introduced the background, he turned his direction again, "Xuan Taizu's fifth son, Feng Shouyang King. According to some historical evidence, Xuan Taizu loved this son very much, but Shouyang King devoted himself to cultivating Taoism. I think Xuan Taizu It is for this reason that the throne is passed on to the grandson over the son."

Jiang Huan was a little excited to see him, and the research direction was probably this Shouyang King.

King Shouyang sounded familiar, Jiang Huan asked, "What's the name of King Shouyang?"

Professor Liu was embarrassed, "The name... this, King Shouyang died in his 30s. There are legends that he was forced to death by the last emperor, that is, his nephew. There are also legends that he became a fairy after death. In short, the last emperor ordered him to be destroyed. The records that cannot be destroyed have to be dug up, so currently only his surname is Wei, and he has made achievements in water control. There used to be some Xuanwang temples in the Jiangnan area. The mainstream believes that they sympathized with the last emperor and built temples for the last emperor, but my The point of view is that in fact, it is King Shouyang who commemorates..."

Jiang Huan shook the torn red rope in front of him, "Get to the point."

Professor Liu said, "There is a piece of reverse scale under the dragon's throat. It cannot be touched. Anyone who touches it will die. In the Xuan Dynasty, since the Taizu, the princes and grandchildren of noble births have given a piece of reverse scale. When they are alive Wear it by your side and be buried with you after death.”

Jiang Huan subconsciously clenched the scale in his palm. Professor Liu looked at his hand and continued, "I still don't know what material the scale is made of. Some say it is jade, and some say it is the horny hyperplasia of some creatures in the sea, such as fish scares. Stone, hard and translucent, is the horny pad under the throat of herring. The specific source will only be known through laboratory tests."

"However, only Taizu Xuan, Prince Min, King Shouyang, and Emperor Mo were bestowed with Nilin. The tombs of Prince Mi and Emperor Mo were robbed and excavated. These two pieces of Nilin once appeared in the world, and were destroyed in other historical events. The mausoleum of Emperor Xuan Taizu has been protected and has not been robbed, and the higher-ups ordered that it should not be opened until technology can protect the cultural relics. The only source of this inverse scale is the tomb of King Shouyang whose location is unknown."

Jiang Huanxin said that there are four pieces in total, and a few more pieces will catch up with the heart-shaped stone.He laughed directly, "Oh, you suspect that Xuan Chang dug the tomb of King Shouyang?"

Professor Liu implicitly said, "Three or four of the highest-level Xuan Dynasty cultural relics flowed from his hands."

Jiang Huan saw that the time was about the same, he was too lazy to talk, and grinned at the professor.

He was just unruly before, but this smile lifted the veil and revealed cruelty.

Professor Liu felt fearful, and he asked slowly, "Tell me that Xuan Chang is not a good person, what good are you and the people behind you?"

The ostentation of this car is not something a university professor can have.Professor Liu's role is that of a cultural broker, who sells knowledge and insight. Jiang Huan doesn't know this business, and he is not interested in whether he is a "history buff" with amazing wealth and energy or simply an auction house.They either want this piece of reverse scale, or they want the location of Shouyang King's tomb.

Jiang Huan stopped looking at him and knocked on the car window, "Open the door, I want to go out to smoke."

With a soft sound, the car door was locked.The sun shone through the car door, and Jiang Huan stepped down to smoke.

This is another yard, but much larger, with at least three entrances, the first being converted into a garage.

Ginkgo branches protrude from the eaves. Not long after the vernal equinox, the branches and leaves are green, lining the wall and tile colors, very bright.

When rich people come to Beijing, it is unavoidable to make yards. Jiang Huan clicked his tongue and smoked his second cigarette before seeing the red Porsche driving, and went out to waving.

Xuan Chang shook his hand.

Professor Liu also got out of the car and stood there awkwardly.

The second entrance door of the courtyard opened, and a man with the appearance of a housekeeper stepped over the high threshold, bowed down to see off the guests with a smile, and said a few words on behalf of the host, such as what to say next time.

Xuan Chang said, "Excuse me."

It seems to be a real guest.

Jiang Huan sat back in the passenger seat, saw the direction of Xuan Chang's gaze, and fastened his seat belt.

He opened the window with a cigarette in his mouth, "Is that the guy surnamed Cheng who tipped off the news?"

Xuan Chang smiled, "Cheng Sisi."

The car drove around for a long time with the curtains drawn, but it didn't go very far. There was a traffic light when it got out of the alley.

Jiang Huan stretched out his hand to show him his empty wrist, "I'll sell the night money."

Xuan Chang didn't get annoyed, "If you sell your stuff, it's up to you."

Jiang Huan just cut it, took out the broken red string from his pocket, biting a cigarette, and said, "Ten years to start."

Buying and selling national treasures, and suspected of tomb robbery.

Xuan Chang asked, "Are you afraid?"

Jiang Huan grabbed his hand and pressed it between his legs, "I think it's exciting enough."

Jiang Huan didn't believe that a big pie fell on his head for nothing.Once he was told that the pie might be dirty or poisonous, he planned to eat the meat instead and spit out the arsenic.

The light changed color, Xuan Chang stopped driving.

After returning to the yard, Jiang Huancai said, "I had a test three months ago. I was diagnosed with Huntington's disease. I will go to Switzerland in July to prepare for euthanasia."

His grandfather had this disease, which is 50.00% hereditary, and his mother had a car accident not long after showing symptoms.

Genetic testing can confirm the diagnosis, and he didn't want to reveal the answer for so many years until he also developed the disease.

After the onset of Huntington's disease, there is generally fifteen to twenty years to live, but it is not dignified.This disease is also called chorea. People gradually lose control of their bodies, and may dance suddenly, accompanied by epilepsy, like crazy.

After the onset of the disease, the spirit will also be affected, irritable, irritable or even depressed, the mind will degenerate, and you will not be able to take care of yourself.

Jiang Huan couldn't even say these words. He didn't want to tell Xuan Chang that if I didn't die, I would become like that, as if I would lose my dignity even if I said it.

Xuan Chang held his hand, and there was a buckle on the red rope tied to Nilin.Jiang Huan could pull it off, but couldn't tie it back.

Xuan Chang tied his wrist back for him. After a short period of calm, Jiang Huan's mood returned to normal.

If you want to hate and be angry, you have already hated and been angry.Xuan Chang took him out of the car, and he let Xuan Chang lead him back to the bedroom.

Xuan Chang asked him to take a nap, but he hugged his waist tightly, "I'm hungry."

That face has the meaning of "If you don't cook for me, I will eat you".

At this moment, Jiang Huan suddenly laughed.

Xuan Chang relaxed his brows and eyes, "What?"

He said, "It's nothing, just now someone told me the story of Xuan Dynasty and King Shouyang."

Xuan Chang asked, "Oh?"

Jiang Huan said, "You said that this unlucky King Shouyang devoted himself to cultivating the Tao, wanted to live forever, and didn't even want the throne, so he ended up living in his thirties. Isn't that funny?"

After thinking about it again, he grinned again, "There is also the Xuan Dynasty, which seriously worships legendary animals as ancestors. This is not at the level of feudal superstition. If you imagine a dragon-human hybrid, it will not be an ancestral mental illness. This dynasty deserves it Only 30 years."

He was lying on the bed, but he didn't see Xuan Chang's half-smile, "Really."

Jiang Huan wanted to say something, but before he could say anything, Xuan Chang bent over and kissed his lips.
