I joked, "Could it be the black gold and black iron mentioned in martial arts novels?" Everyone except Tang Minghao burst into laughter. Geng Wei said: "You educated people really have some interesting words." Then he said to Xu Zhiwu, "Expert Xu, what do you think?" Xu Zhiwu shook his head and said: "I don't understand either, maybe we will have an answer in two days. If it's really what Tashi himself said, I have a friend who will give me some advice." Before asking carefully, he asked again Instead of pretending to be mysterious, he only said it after looking at the situation, and when he said this, he looked at the balcony and around the house very worriedly.Presumably, I was afraid of being watched by people of unknown origin that I met.The same goes for me, I always feel that my every move is being watched, but I can't find evidence.I suspect that it was Zhuoma Yangjin's arrangements in Lhasa and the actions of Tashi and his group that left psychological sequelae.

For about three or four days, at noon one day, when everyone was having dinner, Xu Zhiwu suddenly received a phone call, and after hearing a few words, he burst into smiles, cheerfully slapping the person on the other side of the phone. It was very happy.He also said that he must be invited to dinner when he returns to Beijing, and he can choose bird's nest and shark's fin at will.After talking like this for a long time, he hung up the phone reluctantly, and turned around and said to us happily: "Good news, good news." After finishing speaking, he picked up a large chopsticks dish and delivered it to his mouth, tucking his tongue while eating with gusto, completely ignoring everyone looking at him eagerly, waiting for him to say some good news.

I didn't have enough patience. Seeing that he wanted to pick up some food again, I quickly held down his hand and said, "What good news, tell me first before you eat!" Seeing this, Xu Zhiwu put the chopsticks on the table, cleared his throat with two coughs, straightened his collar, and then said slowly, "A good friend of mine in Beijing just called to tell I said he has made a fortune in the past two days." I secretly scolded this damn guy in my stomach, what does your own friend get rich with, what does it have to do with us, and you still pretend to be mysterious!really...

Before the slander was over, Xu Zhiwu changed the subject and asked, "What do you think my friend does?" He wanted to arouse everyone's curiosity before giving up.However, Lao Li and I had a tacit understanding and didn't answer his words. Tang Minghao and Geng Wei had already gone home because they had nothing to do in the past two days, and the three of us were left in the hotel with nothing to do. Seeing me and Lao Li looking at him blankly, Xu Zhiwu sighed in frustration, and said: "It's a failure if you don't cooperate to express your curiosity." I said, "Stop pretending to be mysterious. What is your friend doing? Killing people and setting them on fire?"

Xu Zhiwu looked at me contemptuously, and couldn't help a strong smile on his face: "He is a collector, collect everyone!" Then he said a name, I was surprised, this person has always been a low-key person, never publicized His own financial resources, but every time there is a treasure in the collection industry, he must do everything possible to get it regardless of the cost.I didn't know much about these things at first, but when I worked as a correspondent with a chief executive, he had a lot of experience in antique collection and often chatted with me when he had nothing to do, so I was able to remember this person's name.Unexpectedly, he is still Xu Zhiwu's good friend, the world is really small.

"What do you mean?" I asked suspiciously, "Your friend got a peerless baby?" Xu Zhiwu said triumphantly: "Not only is it peerless, but it also has something to do with us." A flash of inspiration flashed in my mind, and something came to mind, but I wasn't sure, so I said cautiously, "You mean—— That string of court beads?" As soon as this remark came out, Lao Li turned pale in surprise and said, "It won't be so fast." Xu Zhiwu finally whetted our appetite and felt at ease, and told us the whole story in one breath: It turned out that two days ago, a Tibetan came to find Xu Zhiwu's friend who was a collector, and said that there was a string of Eastern Pearl and Chaozhu. , and asked him if he would like it.When collectors heard that it belonged to Chaozhu, especially Dongzhu, they were of course moved.But after thinking about it, it is impossible for such a valuable thing to be lost among the people, let alone in the hands of a Tibetan, so I hesitated.Unexpectedly, as soon as he hesitated, the seller became anxious first, saying that he was in a hurry to spend money, and if he didn't believe in the authenticity, he could find an authoritative expert to appraise it.

So the big collector asked someone to appraise it, and it turned out to be genuine Yongzheng Dynasty beads.Immediately, he gave the man a large sum of money and asked him to go back, while he held the string of court beads every day and looked at it fondly. Speaking of this, Xu Zhiwu said happily: "Now you understand. The string of prayer beads he received is the one that Tashi took. Do you understand?" I couldn't help but gasped, looked at Lao Li, and said, "You must be very well informed." Xu Zhiwu said: "That's right, I guessed that he would definitely sell from Beijing and Hong Kong, so I greeted the buyers on both sides, and asked them to notify me immediately if there is any trace of this thing. I didn't expect this The person is quite capable, instead of looking for cultural relic dealers, he went straight to the person who gave the most money..."

Now we are all relieved, it seems that Tashi's jewelry is not a lie.In other words... we have a great possibility of getting rich.Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel emotional. Everyone YY discussed things after getting rich for a while, and said what to do.Then start preparing for getting rich.According to Xu Zhiwu, Geng Wei should not be called, he is very greedy for money, but looking at the limited people we know in Chengjiang, he is the only one who is the best at diving, so you can't do it.Lao Li and Tang Minghao have a very close relationship, and he thinks it's a shame to make a fortune without a brother.

So the people on our side remained unchanged: me, Lao Li, Xu Zhiwu, Geng Wei, Tang Minghao.Only one Yanzi came from Tashi's side. His original words were: "I already have money, so I don't need to share another piece of the pie. Just ask Yanzi to show you the way. She is a girl, and her water skills are not very good. You should take care of her." Tashi is really keeping his word. I thought he would find many excuses to ask to go with us and ask us to give him a lot of treasures, but I didn't know that he was so straightforward and bold that I couldn't accept it. Before going into the water, Yanzi asked us to bring something like a dagger, saying that there might be unknowable monsters underwater, and we should have something to resist if we encounter them.

Hearing this, Geng Wei went to the black market and got each of us an exquisite pocket pistol. It looked like a modified disposable thing with two bullets.Geng Weiqian exhorted Wan Wan: "I risked my life to get this thing. Each person only has two bullets. Don't follow the example on TV and shoot at every turn, thinking you have tens of thousands of bullets." Both Lao Li and I pretended not to know that his gun came from a wrong direction, and agreed with what he said.Everyone knows it well, but due to our identities, these superficial efforts are still to be done.Lao Li and I tied a military dagger to our calf again, just in case.

After everything was tidied up, Yanzi was afraid that Mrs. Ma's people would come to follow us, so she asked her people to follow up again to make sure that no one noticed, and then she took us to the Fuxian Lake.She didn't talk much along the way, she just asked us to follow her orders.I also said something not to be too greedy.But everyone was dazzled by getting rich, so they didn't pay any attention to her nonsense. The weather was particularly good that day, the sun shone warmly on the body, and it was indescribably comfortable.Reaching out to try the lake water also brings warmth.It had been some days since Tang Mingsheng's death, and there were also scattered fishermen in twos and threes on the lake.It couldn't have been a better day.Everyone was excited and looking forward to go underwater to fish out a lot of treasures. Swallow doesn't seem to be very interested in treasure, and repeatedly told us to pay attention to safety before going into the water.Geng Weidao: "I've been in Fuxian Lake for decades, and I haven't seen any weird things, and I haven't seen any powerful fish monsters." When he said this, Tang Minghao quickly told him not to talk. There is no barrier, since everyone is going into the water to ask for money, it is better to respect it.Geng Wei immediately became serious, and apologized to the lake. After the episode, we filed into the water, with Yanzi taking the lead and Geng Wei at the rear. The water was so clear this time that it looked like a piece of clear emerald when looking down through the diving goggles.Being in such underwater, the mood naturally followed to relax.Swallow, who was leading the way, looked back from time to time to see if we were falling behind, and Geng Wei also gestured to us from time to time to pay attention to safety. After so many things, I think that no matter how powerful this Fuxian Lake is, it cannot compare to those monsters I have seen before.Even if there is an ancient city at the bottom of the lake, so what, how much lethality can a city sinking under the water with an untraceable age, at most there will be a few rotten things with some strange germs. After swimming towards the center of the lake for a while, the swallows began to take us down. Like last time, some unknown small fish and shrimps boldly swam in front of our eyes. During the dive, everything was calm and there were no accidents.But the leading swallow, as if facing a formidable enemy, repeatedly gestured for us to be careful. Gradually, I understood why the swallow told us to pay attention to safety, because under our feet, we could already clearly see the layers of corpses, all of them seemed to be leaning forward and backward in a regular manner, and they seemed to be walking on the ground. He looked up at the few of us.I couldn't help shivering.But when he thought of the string of court beads and the extremely possible countless treasures, this fear disappeared completely.What are you afraid of, faceless devils, dead zombies, I have fought them head-on, is there anything scarier than them here?
