I suddenly thought of the video that Qin Yiheng showed me a long time ago. In the video, Wan Jinrong talked about discovering a strange place in Chinese architectural geomantic omen. Is this what you mean
Who built the bricks into each house? I have dealt with too many houses, and there are very few duplicates in terms of age, house type or geographical location. Who can do such a large project? Obviously this is not something that one or two builders can do.
I said, what do you think Qin Yiheng used in the middle? He put the bricks in? Now that he sensed the danger, he had to take them all out
That's not necessarily true, this game is too big. From what I know of Qin Yiheng, he can't do it. But I came to a conclusion... Bai Kai blinked at me.
Something on you knows where these bricks are hidden, that's why Qin Yiheng had to take you into the house.
I sigh, this kind of conspiracy theory is nothing new to me. Anyway, they are all being used by others. I am not so curious about why they are being used.
So what do we do now? Do you know anyone who can help? I lit a cigarette and asked, we should first find out which house this package of bricks came from, maybe the truth will be revealed.
There are, but they are not friends. Bai Kai dipped his hands in some tea, and wrote three words on the tea table - Wan Jinrong.
My conditioned reflexes are stronger than I thought, or I've been drinking a little too much. When I saw these three words, I retched.
Bai Kai threw me a cigarette and persuaded me that no one could do it except him. If you want to go, we'll start as soon as possible. If you don't go, I will go too. You Ansheng are waiting for the call at home while raising your baby. You see, your reaction to pregnancy is too great.
I took a few sips of tea, barely suppressing the nausea. Why don't I go? What the hell is I running around day and night for so long? Thinking about it, I feel a little bit wronged. After taking a puff of cigarettes to calm down, I said, let’s just say, I’ve been away for too long, and I’ve already forgotten why I set off. But the destination is still there.
Damn, Xiao Que, you can't think like that. Life is like a self-driving trip, what matters is not the destination, but the car you drive! Bai Kai rubbed his temples and said, after this job is over, we can earn a lot of money with peace of mind, and you will save Grandpa Bai!
We rested for an hour at the shopkeeper Qian's house. Both of them felt completely sober from the wine. Just went out to bid farewell to Shopkeeper Qian.
Shopkeeper Qian is very interested in life, and at night he would sit beside his fish pond and fish. The girl from before was still waiting by the side. I always thought it was Shopkeeper Qian's daughter, but I didn't realize it was his wife until I saw Shopkeeper Qian standing up with his arms around the girl's waist. It seems that he has earned enough money to enjoy it.
I told Shopkeeper Qian that we are going to investigate the origin of the brick next. I won't bother you much.
The treasurer Qian didn't hold back much, but just told us to be careful. He sent us all the way out of the yard and stuffed me with a small cloth bag. I opened it after I got in the car. Inside the cloth bag was a pair of embroidered insoles, which should be embroidered with two spirit beasts, but I couldn't tell whether it was a unicorn or something else. Bai Kai took it over and looked at it, and asked me to put it inside the shoe, saying that the money shopkeeper is also a real person, and this thing must be able to protect himself. Although my shoes are not big, but with the insoles in, the shoes are a bit cramped. After listening to Bai Kai's words, it's hard for me to take it out. Enduring it, he drove directly on the road.
Listening to Bai Kai's command along the way, we didn't even stop, and went directly to the airport. By the time the plane landed, it was already the next morning.
It wasn't until then that I realized that Bai Kai's memory wasn't really faulty, we had only been there once in a hurry at night. Unexpectedly, he took me to find Wan Jinrong's residence without thinking about driving. It was still the same old building, and I finally recognized it when I was standing downstairs. I went upstairs apprehensively, I was afraid that Wan Jinrong would not be there, so we would make an empty trip. Fortunately, after Bai Kai knocked on the door a few times, someone opened the door and let us in. As soon as I glanced around, I saw Wan Jinrong sitting in the living room drinking tea, and without looking up, he stretched out his hand to ask us to sit down.
Bai Kai has dealt with Wan Jinrong several times. I don't even need to speak. Bai Kai was still a bit cautious in front of Wan Jinrong, walked over and muttered to Wan Jinrong for a long time. Wan Jinrong looked up at me from time to time. Finally, Bai Kai made a motion of eating with his hands. Only then did I realize that the goddamn grandson was making a deal with Wan Jinrong again. Presumably the ashes are going to be eaten endlessly.
But since asking for help, there will naturally be a price. I had no choice but to drink tea and try my best not to think about the future.
After a while, Wan Jinrong sat up and said, "Take out the bricks and show me." Then he said, you are waiting outside. Turned around and entered the back room.
Only then did I question Bai Kai in a low voice, damn you are using me as a bargaining chip again!
What do you know? Do you understand that this is called dedicating yourself to a career? Not to mention eating some ashes, even if you want to sleep with that surnamed Wan, you still have to dress yourself up and post it up. Bai Kai glanced at the door of the back room, Xiao Que, I think that Wan Jinrong might know those bricks.
I also thought of this point. When Wan Jinrong took over the brick just now, I paid special attention to his expression. Nothing has changed. But this man can't wait for a hundred years, and it's really easy to act. I said, don't worry about it, let's find out Qin Yiheng's whereabouts first.
During the time he spoke, Wan Jinrong had already come out of the back room. Not only did he change his outfit, he even wore a big mask. Throw the brick to me and say something to get on the car downstairs. He opened the door and went out.
I knew that I had promised to help, so I went downstairs, and sure enough, I saw a black SUV parked. Wan Jinrong threw the key to Bai Kai. This time, you can't use the driver. You drive. He sat in the co-pilot himself.
The car drove south all the way, drove on the highway for more than five hours, and got off a highway intersection, making seven turns and eight turns for an hour. We finally stopped in the territory of Jiangsu. Although people are sitting in the car, they are still in good spirits. By this time, people are already a little tired. In addition, I didn't have breakfast, and I was hungry. They first found a restaurant to fill their stomachs. There is no need to say much during the meal, but I had to take a big mouthful of the ashes in front of Wan Jinrong, and when the meal was over, it was basically useless, and there was nothing left to vomit.
Wan Jinrong seldom spoke along the way, mostly pointing around with his fingers. On the road again, he also used his fingers for navigation. This time, there was no delay on the road. In less than half an hour, the car stopped in front of a yard on the outskirts of the city.
The location of this courtyard is very special, and it is said that the geographical location is not too biased. But there was no one around. I looked around, and there were cultivated fields and woods in the distance. Nearby, there are only a few small houses that have obviously been abandoned for a long time. Judging from the appearance, it may have been an auto repair workshop or a small restaurant in the past. In short, it is similar to what you can see on the edge of many national highways.
This time it was different from watching the house in the past, I looked very carefully. This house is very big, almost catching up with an old house that I took over when I first entered the industry. The courtyard wall is relatively high, and the inside cannot be seen from the outside. But judging from the roof that I saw, it was probably an old house. The roof is all black tiles, and there are auspicious beasts sitting around the corners. No one was seen anywhere, and there was no way to find out the origin of this house. I didn't dare to go in without authorization. I finally saw the whole courtyard when Wan Jinrong took the lead in pushing open the courtyard door.
This house is undoubtedly an old house, and there is even a large water tank that has rusted out of shape in the yard. The ground was paved with green bricks, and weeds had grown in the cracks between the bricks. Since I came to find the source of the brick this time, I naturally paid more attention to the brick, leaned over and touched it, and it was not the same. Looking around, the layout of the courtyard is not quite like the southern buildings, but rather the northern one. There are three big houses in each of the three directions. I still don't know which one is better.
The house seemed to have been unoccupied for a long time, and it was lifeless. Cobwebs of various sizes can be seen here and there between the windows. I was thinking about why this kind of antique house was not only protected, but not even destroyed. Can't help but feel a little strange.
Advance to the main room to have a look. Wan Jinrong walked forward without looking back. He suddenly stopped and said, "Be careful yourself, it's daytime, and it's definitely not peaceful here at night."
