Chapter 1305 Father and Son
Fat man: "..."
"How is it, does it feel very silky?"
Fat man said nothing, but he knew the doctor What I said is very likely to happen. As expected, the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. None of Mr. Wu's children are fuel-efficient lamps, and they are more ruthless than the others in trying to trick people.
The car drove through a curve and the bumpy mountain road woke up the boy lying on his side. The first thing he did when he woke up was to see if his rag bag was still there. When he was sleeping, he All pillowed on it.
Jiang Cheng looked amused and teased him by saying that he was not a big man, but he was a money man. How much could a rag bag and some newspapers inside be worth, and if he sold it, he could eat four dishes?
The little boy was still a little afraid of him, but he was naturally close to the fat man. He couldn't help but move closer to the fat man. After getting closer, he seemed to have the confidence to challenge Jiang Cheng, "It has nothing to do with money. My baby!”
Jiang Cheng smiled even more happily, “Is the newspaper considered a treasure?”
"It's not a newspaper! It's a treasure!"
The little boy's face changed angrily. After speaking, he opened the cloth bag angrily, took away the newspapers layer by layer, and then carefully put on his clothes. After wiping his hands, he reached in and took out a small bag wrapped in red cloth from the bottom of the bag.
The boy looked serious, and the whole process was even full of ritual.
Seeing this, Fatty Jiang Cheng couldn't help but become interested. The two of them leaned their upper bodies towards the little boy, their eyes slightly widened, but the boy cast a wary look at Jiang Cheng and tightened his grip on the red cloth bag. let go.
The fat man saw this and explained: "Don't be afraid, he is a good person like me and will not steal your treasure."
With the guarantee of the fat man, Jiang Cheng was lucky enough to see this person. A so-called treasure, as the boy opened the red cloth little by little, Jiang Cheng and Fatty's eyes froze at the same time.
Inside the red cloth bag is a jade earring. The earring is oval-shaped and emerald green, like a green eye. It still emits a faint fluorescence in the dim environment. It is obviously extraordinary.
The boy only glanced at them a few times, then quickly took it back and asked with pride: "How about it, I didn't lie to you, did I?"
"This thing...where did you get it?"
Jiang Cheng naturally has no desire to seize the treasure, and this is a mission world. Even if it is a huge treasure, he cannot take it back. He is just curious about how the boy could have such a treasure in his hands.
Besides, he is also worried about the boy. A man is not guilty of harboring a jade, and putting this thing in his hands will only bring disaster.
After sensing the suspicion in Jiang Cheng's tone, the boy immediately became unhappy, "What do you mean by that? Where did you get it? I didn't steal it or rob it. This thing is mine. ”
"My father left it to me!" The boy was a little excited.
"You still have...where is your father?"
After a pause, the fat man immediately changed his words. He originally thought that the little boy was an orphan, alone without a father or mother. Wandering, if he could find the little boy's father, he would be relieved.
When he mentioned his father, the boy was not in a good mood. He just carefully took back the jade pendant, wrapped it again in a red cloth bag, and stuffed it into the bottom of the bag. After a long time, he shook his head and said, "I and other people on the street Children are different. I am not an unwanted child. I have a father, but... I don’t know where he is.”
“But he definitely wants me. He asked me to wait for him, saying that he would come to me one day, and he might not recognize me anymore. My face, but he will recognize this treasure.”
Jiang Cheng somewhat understood. No wonder the little boy refused to exchange the earring for money when his life was so difficult. It turned out that this earring was a token of recognition between father and son.
Judging from this earring, the boy's father is not an ordinary person, at least he is from a wealthy family. If the boy is left wandering alone, he must have encountered difficulties.
Jiang Cheng reached out and patted the boy on the shoulder, "Don't worry, tell us your father's name and we will help you find it."
"I...I don't remember."< br>
"You must have an impression of what it looks like. Tell me what it looks like and ask this brother to draw it for you. We will find someone with the drawing. Don't worry, this brother is very good at drawing!" Fatty has great confidence in Jiang Cheng's painting skills.
Unexpectedly, the boy became more and more embarrassed, lowered his head, and his eyes were slightly red, "I...I forgot, it's been too long, I even forgot what my father looked like, I only remember that he told me that he would come back Look for me, wherever I am, he will look for me Come to me."
Jiang Cheng frowned slightly when he heard this. He had a strange feeling, but he couldn't be sure. This child gave him an indescribable feeling, and...it seemed like he appeared. The timing was too coincidental.
He is like a thread, accurately connecting several things completely. He grasps the timing of every appearance just right, from providing information in newspapers to squatting outside Wu Mansion to ventilate them Report... I was too busy with tasks before to think about it carefully, but now I have temporarily settled down. When I recall, there are loopholes everywhere, and the more I think about it, the more frightened I become.
Jiang Cheng can be sure that this boy is an important clue in the mission, just like the little beggar in Master Huang's mission.
Jiang Cheng couldn't help but sigh softly, both the little beggar and the boy in front of him were captured by the fat man unintentionally, otherwise the task would be even more difficult.
But it seems... the boy's identity is a little weirder.
Jiang Cheng was cautious and did not continue to ask questions, while the fat man was very moved and kept comforting the boy, saying that he believed his father had always cared about him, and they soon Father and son will be reunited.
When it was completely light, Jiang Cheng and Fatty rested for a while respectively. On the way out of Wolong Town, they were on tenterhooks, fearing that the second young master would go back on his word and send people to chase him.
Back in Shanghu City, everyone did not set off immediately to find clues, but found a pretty good hotel to stay in. They now have the reward paid by the second young master and are very rich. After filling their stomachs, I rested in my room until evening before setting off.
Under the leadership of Fatty Jiangcheng, a group of people took advantage of the darkness and came to Baomo Zhai. The old man from before saw it was Fatty Jiangcheng and immediately came up to him. He first closed the door and put up a sign saying that he was out of business. Welcoming everyone to the tea room upstairs, making tea and then going to inform the shopkeeper, his movements were so skillful that it was embarrassing.
Soon, the shopkeeper rushed over. After chatting for a while, Jiang Cheng bluntly stated his intention, handed the portrait to the shopkeeper, and asked him to help find this person. The approximate range was Shanghai City. There are antique dealers nearby, or some sideline businesses related to tomb robbing.
"Brother Jiang, Brother Wang, you are here just in time. We have also investigated some clues. There seems to be some weird connection between these evil treasures. They... are probably all from the same tomb. Unearthed." The shopkeeper suddenly lowered his voice, "Let's call it Hunhou Tomb." (End of this chapter)
