Where do tomb robbers meet in their lives?

With the clue of Sushuitang, Hongmao led us to find Wu Xie's facade, and then fled with Huangmao scrambling for their lives.

Opening the door of the small shop, the inside is much cooler than I imagined.There are quaint shelves on both sides of the small storefront, and the other side leads to the back room, and there is a wooden chaise longue, which seems to be genuine mahogany, and the color of the heartwood should be red rosewood.There are two beautiful calligraphy and paintings hanging on the imperial concubine chair. I can't tell whether they are antiques. One has the word "Qingliang" written on it, and the other has the word "Buddha" capitalized on it. It looks quite Zen-like.

The inner room is a few square meters smaller than the outer room, and there are many rubbings piled up on one side. Generally speaking, it is not very messy. There is only a computer on a desk, an enamel cup, and a desk calendar. concise.

It seems that Wu Xie is a neat and neat man.

Very good, my brother-in-law needs to teach my Liang Xiaosi how to tidy up the room. This kid's room is in such a mess that it looks like a typhoon has left the country.

I looked at the surrounding environment and the shelves where Wu Xie placed the antiques, and couldn't help but wonder.My grandfather said that the old store "should be refined and not greedy for too much". Wu Xie's things are piled full, and they are placed very casually. It is estimated that there are not many really valuable things.His grandfather, Lao Jiu, was born in the Nine Schools, so there is no real treasure.Where is it hidden?

I suppressed the urge to rummage, and continued to look into the back room.

In the back room there is another escalator leading to the upper floor. It turns out that Brother Ang's shop is above the living room, which is convenient for him to manage his business.I pressed the light on the side of the stairs and beckoned my brother to go up with me.The little brother was carrying the fat man and Wu Xie, and I supported him on the side. After walking a few steps, the fat man suddenly murmured. body.Even Wu Xie's back was in trouble.

I go……

I first looked at the puddle on the ground, and then at my little brother's back. This fat man really threw off his arms to eat.

"It's the middle of the fucking night and you can't let people calm down." I said angrily, "Mother Zhang, when these two people wake up, tie them up for me, and I'll borrow my brother's whip to hang them up for whipping. Hey, hey, You, be careful not to step on this side, what if you slip and fall." I thought depressedly, it seems that I have to deal with the aftermath, and according to Zhang's mother's style, I shouldn't care about "cleaning up" such a fussy thing.

I reluctantly climbed to the top of the escalator, and was very relieved to see that the bathroom was next to it. After opening the door, it was unexpectedly clean, and there was even a little scent of toilet water. At least Brother Wu was quite careful about hygiene.

The little brother unloaded the fat man in the bathtub, asked Wu Xie to sit on the side of the bathtub, took out one from his jacket pocket, one... I squinted my eyes—Hello Kitty pink phone?

I looked at my little brother, and then at the pink kitten shape on the basin.

"Brother, yours?"

He pointed to the fat man: "Give it to me."

Fuck, how much do you lose fat, it's still a children's model.I picked it up and saw it all. No wonder the fat man was so sure. It turned out to be a children’s mobile phone with a built-in power-on function. Without the “parental” password, no one would even think about turning it off.Fat Master, I admire my little sister...

I was still sighing to myself, when I raised my head, I saw my little brother grabbed the hem of his shirt without hesitation, and excused himself in front of me.

"Hey……"

Brother, you really don't have any fireworks at all.

Although it's not like I haven't seen it before, but at such a close distance, without blood stains or tattered cloths to cover it up, under such a dull orange light, it is indeed the first time for me to see it so carefully.Sure enough, as Bai Tao said, the unicorn tattoo did not appear, only the smooth and delicate skin on the chest.It seems that the appearance of the tattoo is really related to the body temperature of the person.Wait, so the little profiteer is a bit thicker than the little brother, look at his muscular lines, it's so sharp, and his shoulders and clavicles are shaped—brother, you need to add more protein, he seems a little thin.

I was just like this, dumbfounded, watching him take off his shirt and throw it into the washbasin without blinking, and then go to pull the belt...

"What are you doing!" I pressed his hand, "This...isn't appropriate."

He grabbed my hand away, quickly pulled out the belt, turned on the faucet to wash away the dirt on it, and then continued to wrap it around his waist.

I blushed and felt ashamed.

Then Mama Zhang spoke: "Why do you call me Mama Zhang?"

Ow?

I froze for a moment.

"You call me Mama Zhang, why?"

The little brother looked at me blankly.

Oops!I had so much fun in the front, I didn't know when I slipped up.

The world is a lesson, I really really really want to openly admit that I was just making a big joke, but I don’t know why the words that came out of my mouth became: "Wu Xie called it that way , I followed suit..."

Brother Wu Xie, I'm sorry!It's all my brother's fault for teaching me like this.

The little brother then asked: "Why did Wu Xie call me Zhang Ma?"

"Because your surname is Zhang." I followed Liang Shuang's example and pretended to be confused.

The little brother continued to look at me.

"Well, it's good to be called mom... No, mom is so reliable, a child with a mom is like a treasure, hehe." I looked at him with a smile, "Brother, Wu Xie was just joking, there is no malice, You, don’t blame him. He is just so naive.” I don’t know if the method of innocence is useful?

He thought for a while: "This is not like Wu Xie." Then he looked at me again.

Fuck, although my little brother doesn't talk much, he still has a shrewd mind.

"How do you know what Wu Xie is like, he, he still calls you boring oil bottle." Forget it, if you want to die together, Brother Wu, don't blame me for being unjust.

"stuffy……"

This time the little brother couldn't help muttering a word, it seems that he finally believed it.

"You can't blame him, who, who made you keep quiet and ignore us all." I saw that he didn't show any disgust, so I quickly grabbed his hand like a rogue, just like when I was a child I did something wrong to please my brother, pulling his forearm and shaking it back and forth.

"Brother, don't worry about Mama Zhang being boring, anyway, it's just a joke, a joke, haha, don't worry about it."

He took a step back and wanted to throw me away, but I practiced with my brother too many times, and I know the tricks of deep men too well, so I continued to hold him like a jelly candy: "Don't worry about it, don't worry about it." He Dumped me several times without success, and finally grabbed my arm and tried to tear me away from myself.

I yelled "Wow", so he had to withdraw his hand, so I grabbed him and laughed: "Don't..."

"enough."

He succinctly cut off my non-stop brainwashing thoughts, probably annoyed me to a certain limit, and I rarely heard him sigh.

"Actually, don't you think Zhang's mother is quite a good name? Zhang's mother is so kind. It's like a family."

As soon as I finished speaking, I heard him say in a cold tone: "I have nothing to do with you."

If I said this to Fatty Wu Xie or other men, the atmosphere might drop to a freezing point, but it didn't work for me.Unless I'm facing Wu Xie, I'm pretty good at playing rogues with other people. If someone has so many cousins ​​and makes troubles like me from time to time to be blamed by others, it will probably become my virtue.I still grabbed him with a smile: "Who said you have nothing to do with us? You have saved us many times. Just say that you have not been the first to save my brother in Qinling recently. So Mama Zhang, how kind Mama Zhang is." !" Simply do one thing and keep going, you must find a way to brainwash successfully, lest the little brother ask Wu Xie tomorrow——Hey, will Dad Wu let me go easily.

He was probably so annoyed by me that he wanted to catch me again.I shouted: "Slow down! If you want to force yourself, I will hug you. Do you believe me?"

As expected, he was shocked by me, looked at me, and seemed to come to the conclusion that "this is really possible", and finally he could only look at me and said, "What do you want?"

"It's okay, you see, Zhang Ma's name is really good..."

Bro:"……"

"And we have no malicious intentions."

Bro:"……"

"What a glorious figure the mother is."

Bro:"……"

"I look at you with a kindness..."

He lowered his head 45 degrees helplessly: "It's up to you."

Oh yeah!

I immediately put him down: "Mum Zhang, that's it, you promise not to be angry, and you won't be angry with Wu Xie either."

His eyes broke away from indifference, he looked at me deeply and then at Wu Xie, and finally shook his head.

Seeing that he turned around and was about to leave, I hurriedly grabbed him again: "Don't leave, you have to get these two people into the room."

In the end, he said to me very flatly: "That's it."

"What kind of trouble is this going to be? Mama Zhang, what do you mean by your words? You are letting them fend for themselves in the bathtub, right? Sleeping like this for one night will make you sick." At this moment, I was definitely possessed by Wu Xie, I don't know why Rory started talking.But he was very alert to me this time, and I tried to pull him several times, but he cleverly dodged him and failed.But I can't let my brother Wu and fat brother sleep in the bathtub, how disharmonious the style of painting is.

"Mama Zhang, just do me a favor, at least carry Wu Xie and Fatty to the floor of the house, the bathtub is really cold."

He ignored me, walked into a bedroom by himself, sat down on a grand chair beside the bed, and pulled the blanket on the bed to cover him.

"Brother, do me a favor." I pulled down the blanket.

He pulled up the blanket again, turned around and closed his eyes on the grand master's chair.

Fuck, you can really sleep, you are not afraid of the fucking cold when you sleep on a chair.There's another lady here asking for your help.

"Brother, I'm really angry if you ignore me."

Great, I've never seen such a calm guy.But the only ones who are sober here are me and him. If he doesn't help me, who can I rely on?With my hands on my hips, I was thinking about whether to just throw the two of them in the bathtub, anyway, it doesn't matter if it's just for one night.What's more, there are only me and my brother here, and there are no outsiders, so it doesn't affect the view, just me and my brother...?

Suddenly a golden light flashed in my forehead.

This is a good opportunity!

Can I test the things Bai Tao told me?Want to... say?

But where to start?

Hello, little brother, do you still remember Liang Yuhe who has been waiting for your Zhang family by the Daming Lake—uh, it’s a bit silly to think about it.

How should I start?

I suddenly remembered that poem by my grandpa.

"Brother, are you asleep?" I said loudly next to him at a volume that would wake him up even if he fell asleep, "If you haven't fallen asleep, how about I read you a hypnotic poem. I read That's it." I cleared my throat, and it really didn't make me used to something as literary as reciting poetry.

"By Moshui in Qianshou Shicheng, red-faced father's mound Bai Gaohe, Gaomi Yao country..." Before I finished reading, I saw his indifferent and dark eyes open and looked at me, I smiled at him, "Gaomi Yao The country is on the other side, and the desolate wind does not ask..."

He sat up next to me, and then calmly said: "The last two sentences are not about Qifeng not asking."

I nodded: "I know. The following poem is longer, but we Han people don't like the original and explicit mythological description in the original text. We just changed it into a poem to commemorate our hometown."

The word hometown seems to have touched him a lot. He looked at me with a look of bewilderment in his very rare eyes and asked, "Do you know the origin of this poem?"

"You know, it's a masterpiece of our Liang family." I tried to make my tone lighter, but I could hear my nervousness as soon as I said it, "At that time, when I was shot and fell to the ground, I wanted to ask you, how could you Read this poem from our family."

He didn't answer, but just looked at me with unwavering eyes: "This is a poem by a member of the Tangut Party. Where did you hear it?"

"From my grandpa."

As soon as I finished speaking, he suddenly grabbed my wrist and his eyes became deeper: "Where did you hear that?"

I didn't want him to be serious all of a sudden, I was a little confused, and looked back at him in surprise: "I didn't lie to you, I really heard it from my grandpa! How do you know, little brother?"

He seemed to be aware of his aggressive behavior, relieved his strength, and said flatly: "Don't ask any more questions, this has nothing to do with you."

Seeing that he was about to lie down again, I quickly said, "Don't you ask me what is the relationship between our family and the Xixia Kingdom more than 1000 years ago?"

He paused.

For some reason, my mood has also become extremely tense. Bai Tao said that I should not reveal too much. There is no evidence to prove that everyone's life is hanging on a secret. If it is too early--fucking carefully !I've died twice, and knowing that doesn't feel too bad.

"Brother." I looked around nervously, approached him, and said cautiously, "Brother, you, are you really called Zhang Qiling?"

He looked at me silently.

"You, you won't lie to me, will you?" This question is really stupid to ask, but it's just self-persuasion.

"I, I don't know very well, but, but, this is a very long story, I, I have heard people tell me, uh... If you are really from the Zhang family, you may have a bad memory, May forget some past events, is this true?"

Damn, what the hell am I talking about?My language expression ability is really urgent.

But from my brother's reaction, I seem to have grasped the point.

"You know what?" He squinted at me.

Rather than saying I know something, it’s better to say that our surname Liang really doesn’t know anything. My family has been a professional playmate for 400 years, so you’re still asking me!

"I, uh, I actually don't know anything... I just know that our family may or may not have a relationship with you." Emma, ​​I was so confused, and gestured to him meaninglessly, "For example, I I know that our family is looking for a person named Zhang Qiling, but I only know your name is Zhang Qiling, I don’t know if you are that Zhang Qiling.” Aww, I understand, I really understand the importance of that token—” In fact, if you know a story about the Zhang family and the Liang family, it’s easy to talk about it, but I heard that the real Zhang family’s memory, that, seems to be a bit problematic, so I think I’m just asking you if you can’t figure it out So that's why."

He immediately grabbed my chaotically waving palm: "Your family is looking for a man named Zhang Qiling?"

"Yes," I nodded like pounding garlic, "I've been looking for it for a long, long time, you can't imagine how long..." For some reason, seeing him focus, I felt a little irritable. calm.

"Our family had an agreement with that Zhang family a long time ago. I can't tell you what that agreement is, because I am a little confused about what it is. The only thing our family knows is to find that Zhang Qiling People, that person whose real name is Zhang Qiling, and then complete the agreement made a long time ago."

It's been too long.

As a result, what the agreement is actually becomes less important, and the search becomes a kind of belief-like thing.

"I'm luckier than anyone else that this search didn't become a bondage when I was born, I only learned about it recently. Brother, can you imagine? You've been waiting for a Man, you don’t know who this person looks like, or even if he still remembers you, and if he forgot the original agreement. You have made a lot of guesses, and there are a thousand reasons to give up, but you still decide to stick to it Hold on."

For a moment, I seemed to be able to understand those people with faith a little bit. They once left their homes and embarked on a strange journey alone, and then went through hardships and got nothing. They hibernated in the dark, guessing and waiting again and again. ...

"Brother, you, have you heard of the name Liang Jincheng?"

He just looked sideways for a few seconds, then shook his head.

"So, where's Liang Zixin?" It's that old man who kindly gave you sweets, he has been waiting for you, until the last moment of his life, he was still inquiring about your news.

Still calm as water, he shook his head.

My heart sank slowly.

"Don't you remember? Or do you not know these people at all?" I heard myself speak softer and softer, "Or, it was simply my mistake..."

He said in a calm tone that made my heart cold: "I don't know."

I suddenly got angry, pressed his shoulder and couldn't help but shouted: "Then what else do you know? Inverted Dou? Or all those underground mechanism designs? You don't even ask where your knowledge about Inverted Dou comes from." , are they all inherited from your Zhang family? Are you going to fight when you're born!"

Then I froze in place.

Something gradually seeped out from the palm of my hand on his shoulder.

At first it was just a few dark marks, then they stretched, deepened, and slowly outlined.I couldn't help letting go, watching the unicorn tattoo on his chest slowly emerge, first a pair of antlers, then the animal head, and finally a complete picture of the unicorn treading fire appeared in front of my eyes.

He didn't seem to notice the change in himself.Just looking at me with a very powerful quiet look.

"I don't know why I know those things. I have a certain understanding of various civilizations, and I also know a lot of lost tomb designs. People don't know it by birth. If no one taught me, I wouldn't know these things. "

I stared blankly at him, never expecting him to talk to me so much.

"Who taught me these things, how the tattoos on my body are used, why I know that poem you read, I don't remember all of this." He paused and repeated, "I don't know remembered."

"I'm a person with no past and no future. All I do is try to find my connection to the world. Where do I come from? Why am I here? Can you imagine someone like me if in If you disappear in this world, no one will find it, just like I never existed in this world, and there will be no trace left. Even if you are looking for it, it is just a person with the code name Zhang Qiling, not me .”

For a while, I just felt sad.

Even I couldn't tell him definitively that the person our family had been looking for for generations was him. Even though I was so sure in my heart, I couldn't come up with any convincing evidence.

In the final analysis, it has been more than 1000 years and nothing has been done yet.

And the little brother became another fan.

What all living beings should toss about is still tossing.

The anger dissipated, and I sat down next to him again.

"At least, Wu Xie, me, and Fatty will know about it." I murmured while pulling the blanket, "Didn't I emphasize to you many times, don't just disappear without saying anything. You just left that time, almost Kill me and Wu Xie, you know."

He didn't answer anything.

He and I were silent for a moment, and then I said unwillingly: "Is it true that you can't remember at all?"

He put a hand on one temple.

"Okay, I don't want to force you. No matter who you are, you just need to be my mother Zhang. Mom Zhang will not be a code name." I smiled at him, and felt that the things that were pressing on my heart were relieved a lot of.

He was silent.

We were silent for a while, and then he said: "You once said that your Liang family is familiar with the design of ancient tomb chambers."

I shrugged: "You have to deal with this with me. That's okay. First, I don't have a real family heirloom, and I recently heard that most of the elites and knowledge in my family were buried in a big cleansing. Even if what you know is the true biography of Liang Zixin back then, it can only become an extinct story, and our house has been robbed long ago."

Alas, even if you ask him for a token, it is probably a tragedy. I think it is true that he looks like this, but now he probably can't even remember what that thing is.

So I asked casually: "By the way, in fact, my family uses a token to identify the Zhang family. I don't know what this thing looks like, but it's called 'Shuanglong Half Ring Jade'."

Then the little brother took out a jade-like object from his pants pocket and gave it to me: "Is this it?"

I took it: "I don't know, I also heard people say it, but although this thing is carved in pairs, it doesn't look like a dragon. And let me tell you the truth, don't be angry, the carved ground is quite ugly." easy to find.

"This is Jiuchi, a type of dragon. Before the Yuan Dynasty, the appearance of the dragon was very different from what it is now, more like a beast, or a snake with animal feet. This is something from the Wei and Jin Dynasties, very ancient."

Wei Jin?

I remember Bai Tao said that the story of our family started from the Northern Wei Dynasty.

"Is the era of the Northern Wei Dynasty the Wei-Jin period?"

"No, the Northern Wei Dynasty was later."

so long.

I held it in my hand and looked at it carefully.Suddenly, I found a very fine and familiar mark at the head of the dragon - a beam on the river.

At this moment, my back suddenly tensed.

Fuck, it can't be such a coincidence!Now I brought it close to my eyes, looked it up and down carefully, and then took out my Yingjisha and compared the engraved logo on it to the jade.

It's really the same!

I gasped.

"Brother, where did you get this thing?" I trembled with excitement.

"do not know."

It's fucking typical of your answer.

"Why don't you know, there must be a saying."

The little brother shook his head decisively: "It's been on me since I can remember."

I opened my eyes wide, and my hands trembled uncontrollably: "You mean, you mean...it's always by your side?" This answer is quite satisfying.

The double beasts are still half-ringed, and they are something from before the Northern Wei Dynasty, and there is also a symbol of my family. This possibility is very high! --Huh?

"Mother Zhang, Mama Zhang," I pulled him to point to a dragon body on Huanyu, "Why is there a fine line here? What's going on, it seems to have been disconnected."

"Ah."

"What does 'um' mean?" I had a bad premonition, "Could it be that this thing is really broken. Look carefully, it seems that there is a small gold ring here that is symmetrical with the other one. The gold ring here What about the ring?"

The little brother said something wrong: "I was hungry when I woke up."

"Ah? I mean, what about the Golden Ring?"

"I exchanged food with someone." He pointed to the golden ring on one side.

"Your sister! Maybe this is a treasure handed down from my family!" I couldn't help but give him a smack on the head, "You forgot all about it! What about this one! How do you spell the gap? went up."

The little brother took a look at my face, then leaned back and away from me, and spit out a word: "502 glue."
