Chapter 174 Deja Vu

The place where Shi Lao lives is surrounded by many old courtyard houses, all of which are now expensive but not marketable. People who can afford to live here are either rich or noble. Li Mo also wanted to buy a small one, but he couldn't buy one.

The car stopped at the entrance of a medium-sized courtyard, attracting many hidden glances. Li Mo got out of the car and looked towards the end of the alley. There seemed to be a side street there, with people coming and going.

"That is an old hutong street. It has long been developed into a tourist attraction. It is a very famous hutong cultural street. Have you visited it? If not, I will accompany you there later."

Qin Sirui stood next to him, and Li Mo could clearly smell the body fragrance emanating from her body. He felt a strange tranquility in his heart, and seemed to enjoy this moment.

"Is it appropriate for a big star like you to go to that place?"

"Celebrities are also human beings, there is nothing inappropriate about them."

"Xiao Mo, Sirui, what are you standing there talking about? Come here quickly." Mr. Qin waved to the two of them. The courtyard door had been opened, and Mr. Shi came out wearing a Tang suit. He looked energetic and rosy.

He has an upright body and looks as good as a young man.

"Hello, Grandpa Shi." Qin Sirui hurriedly walked over and saluted.

Li Mo followed her and saluted and shouted: "Hello, Grandpa Shi."

"Isn't this Xiao Mo? It's a rare visitor. Come in quickly."

Grandpa Shi smiled as he looked at the two young men. He felt that the two were quite a match. Especially Li Mo himself. Although he did not have any prominent posture, he had made such a big name on his own at such a young age.

This is better than countless wealthy disciples.

The courtyard where Shi Lao lived was not as big as the Qin family courtyard. It had a courtyard, a main room, two side rooms, and a total of six bedrooms. There was a grape trellis built in the middle of the courtyard, covered with branches and leaves. There was also a circle in the corner of the courtyard.

An area was set aside to grow some vegetables, and the birds in the two birdcages were chirping and jumping happily.

Under the birdcage is a stone bench, and the white-haired kitten has been lying lazily on it. From time to time, it turns over and looks at the suspended birdcage, wondering what the hell it is thinking.

This medium-sized courtyard house is full of rich flavor of life.

"Mr. Qin, you came early today, do you want to play a few games with me?" Mr. Shi touched the white beard on his chin and asked with a high-spirited fighting spirit.

"With that kid here, we two can't make a fool of ourselves. But don't you often say that there are several masters living in this alley? Later, you take Xiao Mo with you to kill their vigor."

Shi Laoyi clapped his hands and said: "What a great idea, it's settled. Xiao Mo, you have to give me some time to speak out."

"But Mr. Shi, even if you take Xiao Mo over there and win them all, it's not justified. I think it's better for you to teach him a few Tai Chi moves. When they ask, you have the title of master and disciple after all, right?"

Everyone walked into the main hall, and the nanny served tea and fruits.

"Mr. Qin, there is something in your words. Tell me, what do you mean?"

"This kid suddenly came over today and wanted to learn Tai Chi from me. He said that he still had a treasure-detection skill that he hadn't learned yet and wanted to practice his strength a little softer. I thought it would be better to learn from you, so I brought him with me.

Brought here." Mr. Qin pointed at Li Mo, "Do you like these muscles and bones?"

Shi Lao was a little moved. Li Mo has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, so his muscles and bones are well-trained. The strength of Tai Chi is completely opposite to that of Baji Quan, but the principles of boxing are similar. If you teach carefully, you can really do it.

Inherit what you have learned throughout your life.

"I agree to this, Xiao Mo, come here when you are free, and I will teach you Tai Chi." Shi Lao was very straightforward. The children and grandchildren at home are not interested anyway, and now there are people who specifically want to ask for advice, so why not do it.

"Thank you Grandpa Shi."

Li Mo stood up and gave him a big salute.

"Sit down, don't worry about all the red tape here. I still have something to ask you about. What's going on with Xiang Yu's treasure now?"

Sure enough, everyone above is paying attention to the progress of the treasure project.

"The day after tomorrow, the systematic identification process will begin, mainly for the treasures hidden in the iron boxes. The twelve golden gongs have actually been identified, but the original two have become twelve, and the number is complete."

"As for the eighty-one stone soldiers, they will be moved out of the mountain and settled in the treasure hall after the renovation of Xiang Yu's treasure hall. I personally think that once the stone soldiers left by Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, appear in the world,

Its shocking power and influence on the world will not be much inferior to that of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses of the First Emperor."

"Hey, when you say that, I feel really lucky. I can see the true face of Xiang Yu's treasure that has been passed down for two thousand years in my lifetime. This life is not in vain."

"Grandpa Shi, Grandpa Qin, when the Overlord Treasure Museum opens, I will be the first to invite you to visit it."

"It's okay, hahaha."

There was a burst of laughter in the hall.

While Li Mo was chatting, his eyes accidentally fell on the many old photos on the east wall of the living room. He stood up and walked forward. It seemed that many of the old photos in the frames on this wall were yellowed. At least some of them were yellow.

Thirty or forty years.

There were photos of Shilao when he was young, old-fashioned black and white wedding photos, and a family photo. Among them, two old photos aroused Li Mo's interest. One was a photo of two people. Shilao was only about thirty at that time.

He was tall and mighty, holding a little girl about two years old in his hands, with happy smiles on their faces.

Another photo should be of a family of four, a little boy and a little girl taking a photo with their parents. They are wearing old-fashioned military uniforms, full of a strong sense of the times.

Li Mo stared at the two photos for a while.

"Xiao Mo, what are you looking at?"

Mr. Qin turned around and shouted.

"Grandma Shi was really a beauty when she was young." Li Mo sat back on the chair and said with a smile, "It's really strange. When I look at Grandma Shi when she was young, I always feel a sense of déjà vu, as if I've seen her before somewhere.

And that little girl looks very kind, she is almost the same model as Grandma Shi."

Mr. Qin's eyes changed slightly. He coughed twice and said in a low voice: "Li Mo, I want to play two games with Shi Lao. You and Sirui go out to the cultural festival in the alley not far away."

"It's okay, it's been so long, it's just a thought now."

At this time, Shi Lao waved his hands and looked at the old photos on the east wall, his face full of nostalgia.

Li Mo suddenly knew that he had just said something he shouldn't have said. He looked at Mr. Qin, trying to find some answers from him, but Mr. Qin just shook his head slightly at him.

"Grandpa, you and Grandpa Shi will kill two games first. Li Mo and I will go out for a walk. If you need anything, call me." Qin Sirui stood up and motioned to Li Mo to leave the house first.

"Go ahead, don't forget the time while playing, come back early and finish your meal."

Li Mo followed Sirui to the courtyard thoughtfully. He still hasn't figured out what he said wrongly just now.

"I'll tell you outside."

After the two walked out of the courtyard, Qin Sirui sighed softly and said: "That little girl is Grandpa Shi's daughter. She disappeared when she was three years old. Her whereabouts have not been found for so many years."

"What's going on?" Li Mo was shocked. No wonder when he mentioned the little girl, Mr. Qin and Mr. Shi both looked strange.

"I also heard my grandpa mention it once. Grandpa Shi was a soldier in the army when he was young. That year, grandma Shi took her son and daughter to visit him. I never thought that a flood suddenly broke out that night, and many towns and villages were flooded.

Grandpa Shi and the others were ordered to go out for rescue."

"But less than two hours after the troops left, the flood also reached the area where the military camp was located. That night, the girl disappeared."

Li Mo's heart suddenly became heavy. Grandpa Shi should have blamed himself and been in pain at that time. He took care of everyone, but failed to take care of the small family, so that his flesh and blood were separated.

"Are Grandpa Shi and the others still looking for him?"
