Chapter 6 Chapter Six

Chen Chang paused for a while, and then said again: "I fought bravely. In less than half a year, I was promoted and brought about a dozen soldiers. Once, I met Huizi's cavalry. Huizi was on the horse, galloping back and forth like a whirlwind. , the steel knife in his hand swung like lightning. Huizi’s saber was so sharp...I’ve never seen such a sharp knife, and nothing kept chopping. With one knife, the head was split open, and the two halves of the head and the eyes could still blink! It is common to cut people in half with a knife..." Chen Chang described it in a very primitive language, so it sounded particularly bloody.

Yuan Zhenxia was very uncomfortable listening, so he stopped him: "Okay, don't need to go into too much detail." However, Chen Chang protested: "Details? Doctor Yuan, how did thousands of people die on the battlefield? I didn't even say one ten-thousandth of it." Yuan Zhenxia smiled wryly: "I know that on the battlefield, human life is worth less than mud, so please keep the story short." Chen Chang took a breath, took another sip of wine, and said: "Okay, in a blink of an eye, I was the only one left in my small group, and all the dead were incomplete. The saber, when it was slashing at me, took a stab at it, and with great strength, grabbed the man's wrist, dragged him off the horse, got on his horse, and fled as if he were dead! The team returned My son is just behind me, chasing me with a splash, and it seems that if I catch up, I will be chopped into meat paste by their sabers."

Chen Chang spoke nervously and excitedly, but Yuan Zhenxia was unmoved. Because he knew, of course he didn't catch up.Chen Chang did not die under the saber of the Hui cavalry. He lived for a long time, more than a hundred years, and all his contemporaries died, but he is still alive. Yuan Zhenxia was eager to hear about his experience of living with ghosts, so he refused to speak, so that he could finish the story as soon as possible. Chen Chang frowned slightly: "At that time, it was the time when the sun was setting. I fled westward, and the blood-red setting sun was right in front of me. The sound of horseshoes getting closer and closer, suddenly, my eyes suddenly went dark." , A large group of dark clouds covered the sky, covering the whole sky. The rumbling thunder, one by one Jiao Lei, fell sharply, and each one seemed to hit a person on the head."

When Chen Chang said this, he glanced at Yuan Zhenxia. Yuan Zhenxia went all out, thinking, if you like to speak slowly, then speak slowly.So instead of urging him no longer, he asked instead: "Where there is thunder, there must be lightning. What about lightning?" When Chen Chang heard this, he felt as if he had suddenly encountered a confidant, and he stretched out his hand to slap his thigh hard: "No, the lightning shot down from the sky, like a series of spirit snakes, which dazzled people. I ran for my life. , I thought to myself, should the Huizi cavalry retreat? But Huizi insisted on biting me and kept chasing after me.”

Chen Chang sighed: "These sons chased me, trying to kill me, but in the end, it caused me an adventure." Yuan Zhenxia was very curious: "You are running for your life, and suddenly a group of ghosts came to save you?" Chen Changdao: "No, at that time, it was getting darker and darker, and I couldn't see my fingers. I saw a canyon in front of me, and I was quick to think that there was no place to hide on the flat ground. I ran into the mountains and found a It is also much easier to hide somewhere, so I rode my horse and galloped towards the canyon. "Just as the horse galloped to the mouth of the canyon, the snatched horse suddenly neighed miserably, knelt down on its front legs, and threw me into the canyon.

"At this moment, there was a loud noise in the sky. That sound really seemed like the sky had collapsed. I don't know what happened, but there were all kinds of strange noises. It was also me. Unexpectedly, he just rolled under a protruding boulder. "As soon as I hid under the big rock, I heard the sound of thousands of horses galloping from the sky, as if there were thousands of heavenly soldiers and generals coming to the mortal world, but it turned out that it was hail from the sky The hailstones were as big as a bucket and as small as fists, knocking each other in mid-air, and the sound was the same as the hailstones made when they fell from the sky.

"As soon as such a hailstone hits, I know that the small group of Huizi will be smashed into meat paste. My heart is beating wildly, and the gods and Bodhisattvas are screaming. I don't know how a small soldier like me can be blessed by God. , will survive a catastrophe.” Hearing what he said, Yuan Zhenxia couldn't help lamenting that people's life and death are resigned—if he hadn't happened to fall under a big rock, he would have died a long time ago, with no bones left. But everything went so well together, things that couldn't even be arranged deliberately happened to him at the same time.

Chen Chang took a breath: "At that time, except for the shimmering light when the hailstones fell, it was pitch black. The stone depression where I hid happened to be able to accommodate me alone. Gradually, I felt something was wrong, first the cold air hit my heart, and then the sound was not so ear-shattering, I stretched out my hand to touch it, and all I touched were slippery hail—” When Yuan Zhenxia heard this, he couldn't help saying: "You have been sealed in the stone depression by the hail!" Chen Chang nodded again and again: "I was very flustered at the time, and it took me a while to figure out what happened. I was sealed in the stone depression by hailstones, and the hailstorms haven't stopped yet. Thick. Although it is said to be summer heat in June, the hailstones accumulated several feet thick, and it will take three to five or seven days to melt and turn into water. I am sealed in this stone depression, but it is more or less auspicious!

"However, there is really no other way to think about. If you want to push it out, how can you push it! I have to wait for it. While chewing, I didn’t know the sun, and touched it for about three days.” Yuan Zhenxia thought to himself, there are people surrounded by avalanches in the world, but it is rare to hear of people trapped by hailstones.This experience of Chen Chang can also be said to be extremely strange. Chen Chang said again: "The hail is melting, but it melts during the day and forms again at night. I was soaked in ice water, and my whole body was wet. If I moved, the pieces of ice would fall straight down. Three days later, I was already dying." .

"At that time, I didn't even know my sanity. So, when I suddenly saw someone in front of me, I thought I had reached my limit." Yuan Zhenxia realized that it was not coming, he waved his hand: "Wait a minute, didn't you say that the stone col can only accommodate you alone, how can you still see someone!" Chen Changdao: "Qi is also strange here. I did see someone in front of me, but I couldn't see them clearly. I shouted urgently: Help me! Save me! But there are more and more people in front of me!" Yuan Zhenxia didn't say anything more, because Chen Chang said that he was insane, so naturally he could see everything.

Uncle Chang looked at Yuan Zhenxia again: "Those people, I have been with them for so many years. At that time, I saw that they were only human beings. Later, I realized that they were ghosts!" Yuan Zhenxia's heart was full of doubts, he only asked one question: "How do you know how to talk nonsense?" Chen Chang was stunned for a moment, as if he had never thought of this question, so he didn't know how to answer it.Yuan Zhenxia repeated the question again, and Chen Chang blinked: "I've never talked to them!" Yuan Zhenxia was angry and funny: "Is this like saying? You and them—" Chen Changdao: "They and I...well, yes! At the beginning, I spoke to them, but they didn't make a sound, so I had to gesture, and they gestured back. After a long time... ...You know how long I've been with them... Naturally, both sides understand each other's meaning!" When he said this, he kept looking at Yuan Zhenxia with a very anxious expression, lest Yuan Zhenxia would not understand. Yuan Zhenxia understood that he created a set of "sign language" with those "ghosts".After decades, the two parties can naturally use this to talk! Yuan Zhenxia asked another crucial question: "You didn't ask them what it is?" Uncle Chang's eyes widened: "They're ghosts! If they're not ghosts, what else could they be?" Yuan Zhenxia took a breath, he finally had a better understanding of Chen Chang who had such an adventure before him.What happened to this man was strange. Although he was old, his level of knowledge was at most that of an old farmer.He decided that those figures were "ghosts", so he didn't think about anything else! However, Yuan Zhenxia asked himself: If it is not a ghost, then what is it? He couldn't help smiling wryly—because with his level of knowledge, he couldn't answer the question, so he had to admit that they were ghosts! Yuan Zhenxia asked the third question: "Did you get into a big box, in that box, there are many buttons... or something?" The reason why Yuan Zhenxia asked this question was because he remembered an experience that the gentleman described—there was a device like a big box, which could make people's life "segmented".That gentleman just met one, the leader of the Small Knife Society who committed crimes in Shanghai back then!If Uncle Chang's experience is similar to this, then it is not surprising! But when Chen Chang heard it, he shook his head: "What big box? No, why do people go into the big box? It's not lying in a coffin—yes, I didn't mention it. I haven't thought of that ancient tomb for so many years." There is... no coffin in it. Strange, isn't there always a coffin in a grave?" Seeing that he asked himself instead, Yuan Zhenxia couldn't help being a little bit ridiculous: "How do I know? I haven't been there yet?" Chen Chang stared at him and said, "You will always go—if you promise to help me, help us!" Chen Chang has talked about it for a long time, but he "started from the beginning" and still did not say what difficulties he encountered. From what he said, it seemed that the difficulty was not his personal matter, but theirs: both he and the group of ghosts were in trouble! Chen Chang looked at Yuan Zhenxia, ​​and Yuan Zhenxia made a gesture for him to continue talking. Chen Chang took a sip of wine, cleared his throat, and said: "At that time, I only thought that I was dead, and my soul had entered the underworld. I thought the figures I saw were ghosts, just like me. What I thought of at that time It's very ridiculous, I was thinking, if those ghosts were changed by Hui Zi, would they still kill me, would I still kill them?" As Chen Chang was speaking, he suddenly asked such a profound question, which stunned Yuan Zhenxia—even Yuan Zhenxia couldn't answer this question.In life, for various reasons, you deal with me, I deal with you, all kinds of methods, all kinds of methods are used. However, everyone knows that they are bound to die—everyone is going to die. After death, is it all over, or continue to deal with me, and I will deal with you?If after a person dies, everything is settled once and for all, then what is the point of dealing with it in the short life course of only a hundred years? Chen Chang couldn't wait for Yuan Zhenxia's answer, so he continued talking.He first complained: "Anyway, I have suffered enough as a human being. I am not afraid of death, so I asked who they were--those ghosts can't speak, and they have never made a sound. By the way, they asked the ghost first. I gestured, and I followed them. It was pitch black, the wind was gone, the sand was gone, the hail was gone, the huizi was gone, and it was strangely quiet. It was at that time that I was sure that they were ghosts Yes, because I can't hear the sound of exhalation and inhalation, and I am the only one breathing!" Chen Chang's narration is sometimes very detailed, too detailed, and sometimes very vague.Yuan Zhenxia also knew that it wasn't his intention, but that he couldn't really figure it out for so many years. Chen Chang continued: "I followed them and came to the ancient tomb. At that time, I knew that I was not dead, I was a human, and those... were ghosts. From then on, I... have been with ghosts, Ha ha ha ha!" He typed two "ha ha", which came from mocking the days of "walking with ghosts" for many years, which is appropriate. Yuan Zhenxia still has a lot of questions to ask, but he has to sort them out, otherwise, he really doesn't know where to start. He and Chen Chang looked at each other and saw that Chen Chang's expression was very sincere.Yuan Zhenxia waved his hand: "Will you drink or eat there?" Chen Chang stretched out his hand and scratched his head: "I don't understand either, I'm neither hungry nor thirsty. They, they...they..." He said "they" three times, but there was no further action. He hesitated a lot in his expression, but he still gritted his teeth: "They gave me something, a small one, and I didn't need to chew it. I just swallowed it. Not hungry or thirsty, people also have strength, will not grow old, and the days pass quickly." Chen Chang had already described his "life" in detail enough, but Yuan Zhenxia still couldn't imagine it. He originally wanted to ask "What kind of trouble are you in now", but in a flash, he changed his words again: "When did you realize that you will not grow old?" Chen Chang stretched out his hand and stroked his own face: "It's been a long time. I haven't lived a happy life in my life. It's rare to be with them. I'm safe and sound. I really don't have to be afraid of the sky falling. At the beginning, it was inevitable I was a little apprehensive, but I got used to it very quickly. The ancient tomb is huge. I’m afraid that I haven’t gone all over it until now. Some places are dark, so I dare not go in. There are all kinds of… Zhenbao, although I don't know the goods, I also know that they are all good things, and I don't know how long it took before I got...greedy..." When he said this, he showed a very shy and embarrassed expression, thinking that he blamed himself for having greed. It can also be seen from this that he is very simple, which means that everything he said, although unbelievable to the extreme, is also his real experience. After Chen Chang drank up the wine, Yuan Zhenxia added more to him. Chen Chang continued: "I think these are very valuable things. I'll take some out and change the money. Not only can I eat big fish and meat, but also How nice it would be to buy land for a wife and live the life of a rich man!" When he said this, he looked at Yuan Zhenxia.Yuan Zhenxia said: "That's human nature, it's not surprising." Chen Chang smiled a little shyly: "When I got this idea together, I couldn't wait any longer. Discuss with them and give me some of those treasures. I said I would leave. They didn't stop them, they just told me that I wouldn't like it." The days outside. But since I want to go out, I can go out, but they must have two...follow me, so that I can come back anytime I want, and can lead the way. Here, without them leading the way, I can’t get in at all.” When Yuan Zhenxia heard this, he couldn't help laughing—in Lei Jiutian's narration, he always regarded the ghost following Chen Chang as a follower, but it turned out that he still had such a role.Without them, Chen Chang couldn't get out at all, and if he got out, he couldn't go back! Chen Changdao: "I was anxious at the time. Think about it, there is no one in the world who is not afraid of ghosts. If I take two ghosts with me everywhere, let alone buy land and marry a wife, as soon as they appear, I will be regarded as a monster and drenched in black." Dog blood!" Thinking about his situation, Yuan Zhenxia was really embarrassed and couldn't help laughing.Chen Chang also laughed: "But they told me that if I don't want others to see them, others can't see them!" Yuan Zhenxia raised his hand when he heard this: "Wait a minute, what you said just now is that if they are not seen by others, others will not be able to see them!" There are discrepancies between the two statements, Chen Chang blinked: "They all know what I think." Yuan Zhenxia was stunned for a moment, if this was the case, then it would be no different.They can know Chen Chang's mind, this is incredible plus incredible, extremely strange phenomenon! Chen Chang took a breath: "If I can do this, I'm naturally happy. Think about it, it means that I want two ghosts to appear, and the ghosts will appear. Am I becoming Zhong Kui who subdues ghosts?" Yuan Zhenxia nodded, saying that having this ability is indeed very interesting. He suddenly thought again, the legendary Zhong Kui was in company with ghosts and had the ability to subjugate ghosts. Did Zhong Kui and Chen Chang have the same experience? He felt that the more he thought about it, the further he went. He no longer knew what was going on with Chen Chang's strange experience, so it was better not to explore Zhong Kui's matter any more. Chen Chang continued to talk about his situation, and Yuan Zhenxia was even more surprised.Chen Changdao: "I hid some treasures in my body. I always thought that they took me out before the canyon where I hid back to my son. But it was not. When the darkness around me disappeared, the lights were brightly lit. On a very large street. That lamp is brighter than the moon in the sky, and there is no fire, no flickering, very evil-" When Chen Chang spoke in one breath, Yuan Zhenxia could understand what he said, but he had to think quickly, otherwise, he would have no idea what he was talking about.A few words like these mean that he has been in the ancient tomb for many years without knowing it.The lights he saw were electric lights that he had never seen before, not torches and lanterns anymore. Chen Chang took a deep breath: "Besides, I don't have braids anymore. Fortunately, I can still understand what I said. When I asked about the place, it turned out to be Xuzhou—not far from my hometown, but I have never been there. Asked how many years Tongzhi was, I almost didn’t call someone a lunatic to do it, said it was almost 20 years since the Republic of China!” Xuzhou is an important town in the north of Jiangsu Province. It is very important in history and has always been a battleground for military strategists.But it is not considered a big city, nor is it very prosperous. It was around the 20th year of the Republic of China (AD 1931), and I am afraid it was still quite backward.But in the eyes of Chen Chang, who had never seen the world, it was already a remarkable luxury. Chen Chang said: "For at least ten days, I was dizzy and dizzy. I didn't know what happened. It was like a dream. Well, let's start from the beginning. I was on the street. Looking back, two people who sent me out... just After following me not far or near, I was relieved. It was like a dream... I walked for a long time before I dared to talk to someone." Chen Chang's experience was very interesting.If not for this experience, he would not have returned to the ancient tomb, and would have stayed outside to continue his life, and there would have been no changes in the future. Chen Chang stood still in front of a large restaurant. The smell coming from the restaurant should be the smell of meat and wine.But to him, it was an extremely unpleasant smell that made people want to vomit.He only looked around for a while, then hurried away, walked a little more hastily, and bumped into a person all at once. Chen Chang hadn't seen clearly who was hit by him, but a small cloth bag tied around his waist fell down under the impact, and he hurriedly bent over to pick it up.The little cloth bag contained some valuable treasures that he brought out from the ancient tomb—according to him, there were many such things in the ancient tomb, which were shiny and shiny. They were similar to treasures and might be very valuable, so he carried some with him. At that time, the cloth bag was a little unraveled, so he opened it a little, and wrapped it up again.At that time, he was at the entrance of the big restaurant, and the lights were brightly lit. When he was playing with the cloth bag, there was a precious light flowing, protruding from the cloth bag. At this time, Chen Chang heard a sound of "Huh" right in front of him. Looking up, he saw a fat man standing beside him, squinting, staring at the cloth bag in his hand.The fat man was wearing a royal blue silk robe, with a thick yellow gold chain on the front of the robe. It was obvious at a glance that he was a rich man. Chen Chang knew that it was probably the person he bumped into just now.Wanting to apologize to him, the fat man looked up at him with a surprised expression. Chen Chang's appearance at that time was indeed surprising.He didn't know that he was in the ancient tomb, and it had been almost sixty years, and the outside world had undergone earth-shaking changes.So, he still has braids, but hair has grown on his forehead.He puts his braids on top—in the Qing Dynasty, that was the most common attire, but in the 20th year of the Republic of China, it became weird. He had a shaggy beard of varying lengths all over his face.He was wearing a gray robe, which was found in an ancient tomb, and I don't know which dynasty or generation it was, but it looked weird and inexplicable. The fat man sized him up, showing a surprised expression while involuntarily taking two steps back. But the fat man's expression was very strange, one side was extremely surprised, but on the other hand he showed a look of reluctance to leave, he wanted to retreat but stopped. Chen Changxian said: "I'm sorry, I'm getting old after bumping into you!" When the fat man heard this, he let out a sigh of relief. This fat man is quite a famous person. He is the proprietor of Evergrande Pawnshop, the largest associated pawnshop in Xuzhou, north of the Yangtze River and south of the Yellow River.Evergrande Pawnshop is a well-known pawnshop with a radius of 500 li. It is especially good at identifying gold, jewelry, shellfish, and antique calligraphy and paintings.From the proprietor down, an appraisal from the Great Court, the Second Court, and even the Three Courts can convince the world. This fat man's surname is Zhou, and he has a nickname called "Shenyan Wuxu".He took the name "Wuxu", and as time passed, no one remembered his original name. He later told people how he met Chen Chang that night: "At the entrance of the big restaurant, I was bumped by someone, and I was about to scold some boorish man. When I looked up, I saw a ball on the man's hand The fire flashes so hard that I can't open my eyes──My God! Where is the fire? It's the precious light that emerges from a bag of treasures in the man's hand. That kind of fire-like precious light makes my heart jump out. I have seen rare jewels? But that kind of precious light, I have only seen it in ancient books. When I was young, I heard it from the old man, saying that it is a ruby ​​​​produced in the far west. The rarest one is called "Huo Qi" If there is such a treasure, there will be this kind of light, which is extremely rare. Even the Lafayette Cixi, who heard that there was such a treasure, ordered to find it, and when she died, she couldn't find one!" A person who has been immersed in the rare treasure identification industry all his life──especially in the past two decades, after the fall of the Qing court, a large number of treasures in the deep palace have been circulated. Fatty Zhou has been invited several times Go to Beijing and Tianjin to appreciate jewelry.All kinds of rare treasures have passed through him, so many are innumerable. There are legends in the rivers and lakes that if a certain old man or someone has hidden treasures that have not been appraised by the three eyes of "Heaven", "God" and "Fa", it must not be a real treasure. Among the "three eyes", the "divine eye" is Fatty Zhou.The other two "eyes" are two other treasure connoisseurs, which have nothing to do with this story, so I won't mention them. Therefore, as soon as Fatty Zhou saw the fire in the man's hand, he immediately recognized what it was, his heart itched unbearably, and a heart almost jumped out of his mouth! However, when he looked up and saw the other party's appearance clearly, he couldn't help being shocked.Chen Chang's appearance was as mentioned above, Fatty Zhou said afterwards: "The big man in front of him is not like a human, nor is he like a ghost, he is also like a gangster, and he is also like a savage from the mountains, and he has no idea what he is? If he hadn't spoken first and spoke very politely, I really don't know how to greet him!" At this time, Chen Chang had already wrapped the cloth bag, and the "fire light" in his hand disappeared.While apologizing, he tied the cloth bag to his belt—this is a countryman's habit of placing things, and Fatty Zhou could hardly believe his eyes. Fatty Zhou is very shrewd and capable. Under such circumstances, he is still very organized.He pressed his hands on his chest first—his heart was beating violently, making his heart ache a little.Then he said: "Strong man, but there are some good things, want to find a buyer? Brother, I am the proprietor of Evergrande's pawn shop, my surname is Zhou." One advantage of being poor is knowing what a "pawn shop" is.Moreover, Evergrande Pawnshop has been established for more than a hundred years, and it is not far from Chen Chang's hometown. Chen Chang has heard of it.Hearing this, he was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "Yes! Yes!" Fatty Zhou pointed to the restaurant: "Go in and find a private seat, how about having a drink and talking in detail?" Although Chen Chang felt that the smell coming from the restaurant was very unpleasant, he couldn't negotiate business on the street, so he nodded again and again. As soon as they entered the restaurant, everyone greeted Fatty Zhou attentively.Chen Chang knew that he, the owner of the pawn shop, was genuine, so he was even more happy. It's just that after entering the restaurant, it's like entering a stinky pit, which is extremely uncomfortable.But he was born in hardship, and he could bear it. Sitting down in a small private seat, Fatty Zhou ordered food and wine, and ordered them to be served together, so that no one could disturb him anymore.After the food and wine were all ready, Chen Chang frowned at the food, feeling the stink was incomparable, and his disgust overflowed his vocabulary; he treated the wine as usual. Once Fatty Zhou saw this situation, he couldn't figure out Chen Chang's origin, and wondered if he was from the palace?Otherwise, why would such a good dish be looked down upon, and what's more, there is a braid on the top of the head! Fatty Zhou repeatedly persuaded Chen Chang to only drink and not eat.Being persuaded anxiously, he said: "How can I eat these... a few plates? I'm not hungry!" He was definitely not hungry, but when he said this, it sounded like the food on the table was too bad for him to eat.These words were so loud that even Fatty Zhou didn't dare to say anything, and ordered to withdraw again, so Chen Chang dared to breathe. Fatty Zhou was so itchy that he rubbed his hands: "Brother, you can... take a look at the things that you want to sell?" Chen Chang agreed without hesitation, and took off the cloth bag from his waist.As soon as he untied it, Fatty Zhou took a look. In an instant, blood rushed upwards, his face was flushed, but his heart contracted suddenly, and his face turned blue. His eyes were straightened, he opened his mouth wide, and his saliva flowed out like that. He was so frightened that Chen Chang didn't know what happened. He stretched out his hand and squeezed Fatty Zhou's "Renzhong", and Fatty Zhou came back to his senses. Come. Chen Chang is not stupid, so he put the few things he brought out separately.What was shown at this time was just one of them, which had already shocked Fatty Zhou so much.Fortunately, it was so, if they were taken out together, Fatty Zhou would have a heart attack and die on the spot! In fact, Chen Chang didn't know anything about goods. He lived in poverty, not to mention all kinds of treasures. In his life, he didn't even have the chance to touch gold. It's pretty good to be able to touch silver.But all kinds of treasures, the reason why they become treasures, of course, is that they are extremely attractive and attractive, so that people naturally love them madly, thinking that they are the gathering of the essence of heaven and earth.If it didn't have such advantages, how could so many people have been chasing it endlessly for thousands of years? Therefore, when Chen Chang found many treasures in the ancient tomb, he was also shocked. Of course, his feelings are not as good as those of rich people who are used to rich clothes and fine food.When he looked at those treasures, he naturally felt that they were shockingly beautiful, but for him, who has lived in the cold and hunger for many years, he could choose between a plate of big pearls and a plate of pork belly. Naturally, he would give up pearls for pork. From this we can see that no matter how attractive a treasure is, life is still more important than it. It can also be seen from this that there are quite a few people in the world who would give up their lives for treasures. How stupid are they? But Fatty Zhou's situation was quite different from Chen Chang's.In his eyes, jewelry is not only the original beauty, but also its value in society. In Fatty Zhou's eyes, jewelry is equal to a huge mansion, equal to ten hectares of fertile land, equal to groups of servants, equal to rich clothes and jade. Food is equal to beautiful women like clouds, equal to a Hubainuo, equal to everything a person enjoys in life! That naturally has a different meaning. At that time, after Chen Chang untied the cloth bag, Fatty Zhou was overwhelmed by it and suffocated.His eyes were originally covered by the fat on his face with only a slit left, but at this moment, they were wide open. His face was flushed, half of it was due to extreme excitement, and half of it was reflected red by the flame-like light emitted by the blood-red gemstone. He really knew the product, and he guessed it was right. It was a ruby ​​produced in the Far West, which was called "the species of fire" in the history books.The gemstone is not big, the biggest one is only like a thumb, and it is carved into a mighty lion, but it seems that this lion is as big as a fist - because the red light it emits is condensed with the same essence. It was like a large group of charcoal that was burning red, but it was transparent and crystal clear. In addition to one big lion, there are nine other small lions of different sizes.The smallest one is only as big as a soybean, but it still looks like a living being. Not to mention this, what's even more rare is that the ten big and small lions are all connected by very thin chains that are also made of rubies. Although Fatty Zhou's heart almost jumped out of his mouth, he could tell right away that the chain was carved out of the original bad stone.That is to say, it was originally a big ruby, but a skilled craftsman carved it into ten lions of different sizes, and they are closely connected with each other.This craftsmanship alone is beyond comparison. Although Chen Chang was ignorant, he could tell what Fatty Zhou's expression meant by seeing it in his eyes. Fatty Zhou looked at it for a long time, gasping for air, sweat dripping from his fat face, before Chen Chang asked, "Boss Zhou, is this thing worth the money?" Only then did Fatty Zhou let out a sigh of relief, and quickly took a bowl and covered it with the treasure.Only when Baoguang was gone, he could gather himself together, and asked in a hoarse voice, "How much do you want to exchange?" Chen Chang took a sip of wine: "I don't know, I suffered for many years, and then..." He didn't tell Fatty Zhou that he was taken to the ancient tomb by a group of ghosts, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and continued to say his wish: "I just want to live... the life of a rich man, live in a big house, wear silk Clothes made of silk and satin, fertile fields... a lot, someone at my disposal, and... women... good-looking women... and delicious fish..."
