Chapter 6 Chapter 5 The Beginning of Reincarnation

After that incident, I took up my pen again and began to record the follow-up of this story, entirely because of unexpected developments. Although these developments were not as thrilling as I had imagined before, the amount of information it brought far exceeded I expected. After this incident, I understood a truth. You don’t need to deliberately pursue the mysteries and truths of many things. After everything is settled, it will always slowly emerge with the passage of time. A philosopher once said that the only way to see who is without underwear is when the tide is low.Or to use a more appropriate example to describe it, when you deliberately look for something, you often can't find it in the whole house, but when you stop looking for it deliberately, it will always be in some Time suddenly appears in front of you.

There are some puzzles that look like this. After that incident, I was decadent for a long time.During that time, I have been experiencing two states at the same time, one is extremely depressed, I don’t want to do anything, I just want to lie on the recliner, recall some previous episodes, and then think about some choices at that time. What will be the result.I thought that if I wasn't so entangled and obsessive-compulsive, I would probably move towards another life step by step, and maybe I would be more comfortable than now.From another level, not knowing something is far better than knowing it, and knowing it is much more painful than not knowing it.

Another state is that I keep cheering myself up, telling myself that if I don't want to do some things, I must do them too. So I have been taking care of my third uncle's shop with such a contradictory mentality.In the beginning, because there was no Pan Zi, I was alone in many things, and it was difficult to do it. When I wanted to be depressed and quit, I would think of the song that Pan Zi sang to me before he died. "The third master wants to go forward, but the third master can't go back." I am not eligible to retreat. In such a business field, the so-called moving forward is actually just some small things. If I shrink back on this kind of thing, I will really feel sorry for many people, so I have been working hard.

By the second quarter of the second year, a lot of things were sorted out by me.I found a trick. It turns out that when you have done a thing very completely, especially after you have skipped the original accumulation stage to a certain extent, things become easier because you have the opportunity to make mistakes, and you There is a chance to turn around, and if your overall profit is greater than your loss, your system can survive. Even better, I have slowly learned many of Uncle San's tricks. In the third quarter, I gradually eliminated a group of guys who were not suitable for me and replaced them one by one. Although the situation was not as prosperous as that of the third uncle, the plate was running very smoothly.

Seeing the steady stream of cash coming in, I gradually gained some confidence in my abilities.I found that I am not as useless as I thought before—there is a way to success, and it is not difficult. After the development of traditional channels, I was training and making plans for the future, and I went to visit some old friends.The easiest to visit is of course Xiaohua and the others.Xiaohua is still recuperating in the hospital. I didn’t pay much attention to his injuries because of his depression. He is also a very important person. I didn’t even know anything about his experience in the team there.

Xiuxiu has been taking care of Xiaohua, partly because of her, I didn't go to find Xiaohua, because Mrs. Huo's affairs stimulated her too much.But when I ran my third uncle's shop, I learned a lot of valuable virtues. For example, in the face of pain, I know that when the time comes, escaping is the worst solution. Pain can only be alleviated slowly if it is radiated. Repression does not have much effect on it. After the pain reaches its peak, it will inevitably go downhill. After several visits, Xiuxiu's discomfort with me gradually disappeared.I stayed in Beijing for a while to help Xiaohua handle some family affairs, because I relied on my third uncle's relationship and influence in the south and gradually gained some voice, which also gave me more qualifications to help others.

In fact, I don't need these qualifications, but once I have them, it seems that I can't give up. After everything was sorted out, Xiaohua and I started to discuss everything that happened before. I mentioned some details that I didn't tell them in the Zhangjia ancient building: those Tibetan ornaments found in the coffin and the two The ring, and the last story of the bottle of oil. After hearing this, Xiaohua was very emotional. He seemed to be a little bored with all these mysteries. He told me that he would not normally have such emotions. For him, his entire life was something he did not want to experience. , He has taken over the entire family since he was a child, participated in the entire struggle, and he has experienced all kinds of disgusting things.He is no longer tired of a certain way of life, but now he has such emotions, which shows the seriousness of the matter.

I showed Xiaohua the strings of Tibetan-style jewelry that I brought out of the coffin, and I drew some that were not brought out. After Xiaohua saw it, she said to me: "These are all Tibetan Buddhist jewelry , can only show that the owner of the coffin seems to be more interested in Tibetan things, and it can’t explain more.” I said to them: "Since they are in the coffin, I think these things buried with them will have some special meaning. For example, if it is the little brother, his funeral must be a black gold ancient knife. If it is Ah Si’s words may be iron eggs. From the funeral objects, we should be able to deduce some information.”

Xiaohua said: "You mean he has Tibetan blood?" I said, "Maybe he has been active in Tibetan areas for a long time." Xiaohua sighed, and said, "The Zhang family is very powerful. It's not surprising that they sometimes operate in Tibet." I said: "I don't think it's strange, I just think this kind of jewelry is very common. Since I choose to be buried with these jewelry, there may be some clues on these jewelry that we don't know. If you know someone who understands this, you can let They'll come and see. We can't let go of any clues."

Xiaohua obviously thinks that the possibility of success is not high. I don't know why he has such a prediction. Maybe, after such a thing, he can still maintain my curiosity, which is a kind of pathology in itself. However, he didn't stop me. We carefully inspected all the jewelry, the Tibetan jewelry is very large, and the workmanship is very rough and violent.Most of the details are traditional Tibetan auspicious things. If you distinguish carefully, you can find that many of them do not even belong to Tibetan Buddhism but belong to Bon religion. We tried to find something completely different from ordinary Tibetan jewelry in these jewelry. Most of the jewelry are basically like the most ordinary ones, but there is one thing that I am concerned about. Among all the jewelry, especially Among the strings of bead chains, there is a strange red bead inlaid in it.

We all know that most Tibetan jewelry is made of red dzi beads or red agate, red rosin stone, and red coral, but this one is not these materials. I asked Xiaohua, "Can someone find out what kind of stone this is?" Xie's appreciation of jewelry is quite high, but Xiaohua is obviously not very familiar with this aspect. He has lived in a particularly harsh environment since he was a child, and his main energy is not learning how to distinguish antiques. There are special professionals who can control it, so Xiaohua handed these things to Xiuxiu and asked her: "Look at what this is?" I didn't expect Xiuxiu to be very expert in these gems.Sure enough, women are different. She looked at the gemstones and said, "This stone is very rare. It is an organic gemstone." I froze for a moment, I had never heard that metal is also a kind of gemstone.Xiuxiu said: "This is a mixed mineral containing metal components. Its name has not yet been confirmed on the market, but many people call it moonstone." After hearing this, my brain exploded, and I remembered that this kind of stone was used in large quantities in the Zhangjia Ancient Building to make these organs. Xiuxiu said: "This kind of stone has many strange properties, one of which is that it is especially suitable for miniature carvings. Many people will engrave special, secret information on this stone, because its own toughness can make miniature carvings very clear. .” I took the stone from Xiuxiu's hand, looked at it carefully, and said, "There doesn't seem to be anything on it." Xiuxiu said: "In order to hide the information, this information will be engraved around the perforation. Look, isn't the perforation very rough? When you look at it now, it seems that it is just worn out. In fact, there may be many small holes engraved on it." pattern." As Xiuxiu said, she took out her mobile phone, launched some application in it, put it on the gemstone, and then the gemstone was magnified several times, as expected, it can be seen that the circle is a very regular micro-carved figure .what is it then?I took a deep breath, looked carefully, and asked Xiuxiu to zoom in further. Xiuxiu shook her head: "A professional instrument is needed to zoom in, but I think you can see it very clearly. There is a scorpion connected end to end engraved on it." scorpion? !I looked carefully at Xiuxiu's phone and found that it was indeed the case, it was really a scorpion! Why a scorpion?If it is a unicorn, I think there is a reason, but a scorpion—is the little brother a Scorpio? Indeed, scorpions have many hidden meanings in traditional patterns in ancient China: scorpions have many meanings in Tibetan culture, and Tibetan scorpions are even more formidable animals in the plateau environment.But this scorpion does not look like a Tibetan scorpion, but more like a pattern of the Han nationality. This should be a result of the integration of traditional Han culture and Tibetan culture. This pattern is the whole result of our research on jewelry.Xiaohua didn't seem surprised. I think he even thought it was a miracle to have such a clue. Regarding this pattern, I asked a few experts first, and got a lot of ambiguous information. Regarding the scorpion pattern, it is not that there is nothing to say, but there are too many things to say.I analyzed it myself in the middle of the night and found that none of it was of value. Xiaohua said, maybe this pattern is just a coincidence, the corpse itself doesn't know the existence of this pattern. In a family like the Zhang family with collector habits, this kind of thing is very likely to happen. But I don't know why, I always feel that this should be a breakthrough.In order to show her support for me, Xiaohua found a few friends and enlarged the pattern completely, and carried out the first round of newspaper publication, publishing on the Internet and asking friends for consultation. He offered a high price, hoping that anyone who has any knowledge about this scorpion pattern or can find similar information can come to us. After these things are done, there will be a complete waiting time. I don't think there will be any results in the short term, so I don't have much hope, so I went straight back to Hangzhou and continued to deal with the business. Time passed day by day, and I gradually found that although life was so busy and my income was getting richer day by day, the feeling of bleakness that I had before opening a shop still came to my heart from time to time. I still stay in my shop most of the time. The independent financial situation of the shop is separated from my third uncle. It is still so bleak. Sometimes I have to embezzle some of my third uncle’s funds to help my utility bills. If it's not that I'm incompetent... I began to wonder if my father's store has bad feng shui. But I don't know why, but I still like to stay in this place, lying on a deck chair, listening to the radio, fanning the old cattail fan, thinking about various things.I feel that I am Wu Xie only in this place, and when I walk out of this room, I become another person. This person has the shadow of Pan Zi, the third uncle, and various people. He is completely not me.Although I can not miss them and some past experiences when carrying their souls, I clearly know that the life brought by these souls is not what I want. But even if it is not what you want, what comes from fate will eventually come.
