Views:

Meng Xiaotao nibbled the candied haws, but couldn't help but glance at Gu Huaiyu's body.

"What are you looking at?" Gu Huaiyu knocked her head.

Meng Xiaotao immediately let out a weird cry, "Oh, it's nothing." As she said, she leaned forward, staring at the small box Gu Huaiyu was holding, "Gu Meiren, what's in this, how do you touch it? It's icy to go up."

"Weeping Pearl."

"Weeping Pearl?" Meng Xiaotao tilted her head and thought, "I have the impression of this name, but I won't remember it for a while."

Gu Huaiyu glanced at her, "What else do you think of."

Meng Xiaotao smiled happily, and gestured, "Occasionally, I can't remember some."

"Where did you see "Sou Shen Ji"?" Gu Huaiyu asked.

Meng Xiaotao thought for a while, "When I watched it last time, I seemed to see Volume 15."

Gu Huaiyu glanced at her, a little disgusted, "Go back and read it again, Volume 12."

"Ah? I have to look at it again." Meng Xiaotao's face collapsed.

Gu Huaiyu gave her a look, and Meng Xiaotao immediately closed her mouth and fell behind her honestly.

Upon returning to the antique shop, after Meng Xiaotao greeted Qiu Yi, she went straight to the bookcase and searched for the book.

Qiu Yi glanced at her curiously and asked, "Boss Gu, what is Xiao Tao doing?"

Gu Huaiyu handed over the souvenir he had bought for her, and Qiu Yi took it.

"What else can she do, half-hearted, if one day goes out alone, she will inevitably harm others. She is now holding Buddha's feet temporarily." Gu Huaiyu looked at Meng Xiaotao's busy back in searching for books, a little hated that iron can't make steel. Said.

Qiu Yi was a little at a loss, and didn't know what it meant.

An Jiu felt pretty good about Qiu Yi, holding his small head proudly, and gracefully walked to her side, his tone a little gloating.

"Meng Xiaotao was asked a lot of questions by Mr. Gu on the way back, but few could answer. Mr. Gu let go. If this is still the case after half a month, she won’t be able to go out for half a year and stay in the store honestly. Read in."

An Jiu's explanation gave Qiu Yi the same expression on his face.

Immediately afterwards, An Jiu seemed to think of something, and said to Qiu Yi, "Boss Gu asked me to tell you that the shop is usually not busy. If you can, you should read more books, just those on the shelf."

As soon as An Jiu said this, Qiu Yi suddenly became a little embarrassed, and his face was unconsciously embarrassed.

"Well, after you went out, I saw that there was no business in the store, so I picked up the book on the shelf and read it. Now I have almost read it, and there are still a few books I haven't read."

An Jiu was surprised when he heard it, "Then you understand everything?"

The book valley Huaiyu on the shelf collects rare orphaned items.

And these books have a common feature, that is, they are all written in classical Chinese, and some of them are in oracle bone inscriptions, if you have not studied it, it is impossible to understand.

Speaking of this, Qiu Yi is even more embarrassed, but there is a little pride in his tone, "When I was in college, I specialized in ancient history, so I can guess the content."

An Jiu was shocked. He didn't expect college students to appear in their small antique shop!

Illiterate · Anjiu, semi-blind · Meng Xiaotao, uneducated · Gu Huaiyu.

Their combination of antique shops finally ushered in spring, ushered in hope, and the content of college specialization is so matched with their antique shops.

An Jiu couldn't wait to run away, and immediately told Gu Huaiyu about it.

"Ah, I finally found it!" Meng Xiaotao exclaimed happily.

Holding a yellowed and shabby book in her hand, she hurriedly turned the pages of the book to the twelfth volume, looking through it seriously.

"Well, Jin Jin?" Meng Xiaotao wrinkled her face, and muttered in her mouth, "Outside the South China Sea, there are people who live in the water like fish, and weep... , Then you can produce beads. What does this content have to do with Weeping Beads." She was a little puzzled.

There are reasons why Meng Xiaotao was called semi-blind by An Jiu, such as now.

She was able to smoothly recite those difficult to ancient texts without suspense, but she couldn't understand the meaning well.

Qiu Yi took the book over, read the content above, and then explained to her, "The general content of this is that there are scorpions in the South China Sea area. Well, scorpions should be the mermaid we are talking about now, right?" Qiu Yi is also not sure.

"It should be about the same." She murmured, and then explained, "The shark lives in water and can weave. Well, if she sheds tears, her tears will become pearls."

Qiu Yi paused and talked about what he knew when he was reading ancient history about the 雛ren.

Regarding the sayings of the shark people, the sayings of the two sides have been different since ancient times.

In countries Y and M, their sailors call half-men and half-fishes mermaids. Mermaids are known for evil in the West. They often sit on the reef, sing to confuse the sailors, and then drown the sailors down into the sea. And eat it.

The Eastern Shark is obviously different from the Western style.

Yuren has always appeared in front of everyone with a kind image, and will give a specially woven waterproof cloth to her benefactor. When necessary, she will cry into beads and give pearls to others.

Qiu Yi explained so much, Meng Xiaotao finally understood, but another question followed.

"The tears of the shark are red?"

Qiu Yi was struck, it was the first time she encountered this kind of problem.

After a long silence, he explained it from a scientific point of view, "According to the normal conditions of biological laws, the tears of the sharks should be similar to ours, and they are all colorless."

Qiu Yi didn't know why Meng Xiaotao struggled with this matter, but she still told her what she knew.

"Then there are really no red tears?" Meng Xiaotao asked unwillingly.

Because Gu Huaiyu showed her the contents of the box on the way back.

According to her, it was Weeping Pearl.

Red weeping beads.

Qiu Yi shook his head, "I'm not sure about this. After all, the shark people are legends, and no one can confirm it."

An Jiu listened for a while, but saw that there was no accurate answer. He licked his paws in a melancholy manner. He mumbled and said, "I knew that when I saw it at the beach, let her cry first. After eating, it makes me curious too."

Meng Xiaotao’s ears were tipped, and she rushed to him and asked three times in disbelief, "Have you ever seen Xiao Jiu? Have you ever seen a shark? Have you ever eaten shark?!"

An Jiu looked at her with a look on her face, "What's weird? The place where I was born is near the South China Sea. At that time, there were so many people who wanted to eat."

That's how the weak eats the strong.

An Jiu proudly raised his little head, his mouth smashed, as if he was reminiscing about the taste of the shark people back then.
