A group of five people finally stood outside the door next to Liu Yigang's house, and my grandfather rang the doorbell.
After the doorbell rang three times, an elderly woman wearing reading glasses opened the door. When she saw my grandfather, she smiled and said, "It's Mr. Long! Come in and sit down!"
The old lady stepped aside and my grandfather walked in. The old lady looked at us kindly and said with a smile: "Young people, come in too!"
Several of us nodded and said hello to the old lady and followed my grandfather into the hall.
After the old lady closed the door, she invited us to sit down on the sofa in the living room, and then went to the kitchen to make tea while shouting: "The old man is still in there translating something, you just wait here. Don't be in a hurry, right?"
Hua Bubai opened his mouth to say he was in a hurry, so I reached out and patted Hua Bubai's shoulder, signaling Hua Bubai to shut up.
At the same time, my grandfather said: "There's no rush. We can just wait here."
The old lady came out with tea, and then said: "You also know that the old man is obsessed with studying those things. Wait a moment, he doesn't like to be disturbed when he is working. He has been bored in there all day today.
, I didn’t even eat, and I will come out when I feel hungry.”
After my grandpa took a sip of tea, he and his grandma started a family affair and chatted.
A few of us just sat there and listened to my grandfather chatting with the old lady.
This was the first time I heard my grandpa talk about things other than antiques. I didn’t expect that my grandpa was very good at making things happen. He even told grandma this and that without feeling annoyed at all. I couldn’t help but admire my grandpa. This is
The highest level of speaking. You can speak human words to people and ghosts to ghosts. With just a few words, you can make other people smile.
Come to think of it, when he was young, my grandfather was also a master at picking up girls.
However, when it comes to women, my grandfather can be regarded as a legendary figure. Over the years, he has seen many women hanging around him, but they were all those women who pestered him. I have never seen him really like that woman.
When I was young, I told my grandpa to find me a grandma. Having been without a father or mother since I was a child, I really longed for maternal love, but I didn’t see my grandpa having a regular female partner. He was like a saint.
, I have never seen him say which woman is better.
Hua Bubai leaned into my ear and said with a wink: "Your grandfather chatted so happily with that old lady, they couldn't be old lovers, right?"
I rolled my eyes at Hua Bubai, this kid is talking nonsense.
Although there is no way my grandfather would like such an old woman, she looks like she could be my grandfather's mother at this age. Although, it is difficult to judge her appearance. After all, my grandfather is an immortal myth. He is sixty or seventy years old and always looks like
He only looks about forty years old.
When I go out with my grandfather, no one will think that I am my grandfather's grandson. They will either regard me as my grandfather's son or my grandfather's brother. I don't know how to be so exaggerated.
From listening to my grandfather and old *** talking, I roughly understood that the person my grandfather came to see was called Professor Li, and he should have been studying antiques or doing archaeological work all year round.
Since my grandfather came to find this person, I think this person should also be a powerful character.
After we drank tea for half an hour, we finally heard some movement in the study.
Before the study door was opened, a sinister voice came from inside: "Old woman, cook me some food, I'm starving!"
The voice was very eerie, and it didn't sound like a human voice. It made my skin crawl. After a few of us looked at each other calmly, we stared at the study door closely.
The old lady said: "You are finally done. I will make you something to eat. Come out quickly. Mr. Long has something to do with you!"
"Then why is this old man here? Have you brought your things?" Yin's voice sounded slightly excited. As the door of the study room was opened, there was an old man inside who was dressed a bit slovenly and had a stooped body.
The old man limped out with a cane.
The old lady said, "I'm just thinking about this thing. Old Master Long has brought some little babies over. You chat with them first, and I'll prepare some food right now."
When we saw this old man, we were all shocked. This stooped old man had gray hair and his whole face was covered with wrinkles. He was just like a Shar-Pei, but the Shar-Pei was still fat.
Looking better, this old man is skinny and skinny, and his skin is too dark and wrinkled, which makes people look creepy.
The old man's head was very small, his eyes were very small, and his sharp mouth and monkey cheeks looked extremely scary. When he saw my grandfather, the old man grinned, revealing a set of yellow teeth in his mouth. Those teeth were so yellow that they turned black.
It's like it's found on mummies dug out of ancient tombs.
Not only was this old man extremely ugly, but when he sat down, he also had an unpleasant rancid smell and some spooky aura about him.
"Professor Li, long time no see!" my grandfather said politely.
"Yes, long time no see." Professor Li's eyes wandered around us a few times, then returned to my grandpa, "What do you mean by looking for these little dolls? I thought you were
You want to bring me a baby!"
"You know you are thinking about the treasure. The treasures I have brought you this year are not enough! Brother Li, I want to ask you for a favor this time. I need you to use your old skills to help me find some
Place!" said my grandfather.
I am a professional, I muttered to myself, it seems that Professor Li is not a simple person, and I don’t look like a serious professor.
The smell of death on his body is very strong. He must have such a smell because he often spends time with dead people. There are not many people who have this smell. They are either people who stay in funeral parlors all year round, or people like my grandfather who rob graves.
If you often roll around in ancient tombs, you will naturally encounter dead people often. If you encounter many dead people, they will naturally have a smell. The smell of Professor Li is not only ghostly, but also has a certain rancid smell. The funeral director
The people who died while working inside were basically fresh and definitely not rotten, so it can be determined that this person was someone who rolled around in the ancient tomb.
I once heard my grandfather say that among the tomb robbers, some of them are particularly good at finding dragon caves. Their tomb robbing techniques are relatively superb. They can easily find the location of the tomb by using Feng Shui knowledge. Sometimes they can even find the location of the tomb.
One tomb can be used to deduce the location of another tomb.
I looked at Professor Li and guessed that this was probably the type of person my grandfather was talking about. He must have been a master of tomb robberies in his early years, and was particularly good at finding dragons and their caves, so my grandfather found this place.
"Looking for help from me?" Professor Li looked at my grandpa secretly, "This is strange. You know a lot more things than me, why do you still come to me for help?"
"You have always been better at finding dragons and diagnosing acupoints." My grandfather said, "In one sentence, do you want to help or not?"
"Can I not help?" Professor Li glanced at my grandfather and said, "Isn't it the tomb of the immortal? These are the little kids who did it at the treasure fighting conference? Today's young people are amazing!"
"What a piece of shit. He does things without thinking and regardless of the consequences. He leaves a mess and has to wait for others to clean it up!" My grandfather glanced at me and said.
"Hehe, don't say that. I think Mr. Xiao Long has quite the demeanor of Mr. Long back then. He is worthy of the title of Mr. Xiao Long. You should be satisfied with having such a grandson!" Professor Li smiled and showed his face.
A mouthful of yellow teeth.
The old lady brought a bowl of noodles and handed it to Professor Li, and said apologetically to us: "Young man, don't mind it. My old man has always been like this."
We just laughed. In other people's homes, we can't show it even if we mind.
When Professor Li got the noodles, he started to eat them in a hurry, with no sign of eating. It was like we were all eager to compete with him for his food.
I stared at the old man with dumbfounded eyes. Even though he hadn't eaten dinner, I felt so full that I wanted to vomit.
"Old Master Long, just tell me if you have anything to do! Can I help you with your favor? I'm also interested in that thing, take it out and have a look!" Professor Li said inarticulately while eating.
He opened his mouth and spit out a few noodles. The two girls, Eleven and Ma Xiaolan, seemed unable to bear it any longer. They swallowed their saliva and turned away from the old man.
I was afraid that I would vomit if I continued to look at it, so my eyes turned to the side quietly.
While the old lady wiped Professor Li's squirted face with a tissue, she patted her old man and said, "You should look good when you eat. You are not a child, and there is no one to snatch it from you. Don't scare the young people!"
"I don't eat people, so what's there to be afraid of!" Professor Li glanced at us and said, "Why, if you can't even stand my eating habits, how can you enter the ancient tomb? I was praising you just now, Mr. Xiaolong.
, the things you need to see when you enter the ancient tomb are much scarier and more disgusting than mine. If you can’t even stand me, I would like to advise you, don’t follow your grandfather’s example. You are not the material of Grandpa ###’s profession! Tell us
Back then, we could still eat while looking at the rotting corpses full of maggots!"
"Rotten corpses..." Eleven murmured and repeated, with a dejected look on his face, "It seems that my master is right, I am indeed not good enough. I only watched the mummies eat, and the rotten corpses are really
I can’t stand it!”
"So, young people still need to practice more!" Professor Li said, looking at my grandfather with bright eyes, "I said, Old Master Long, you have been talking for so long and you don't even say a single thing!
You want to talk to me about something, but you keep silent, which is not like you! What else do you have to hide!"
My grandfather glanced at Professor Li, and he obviously didn't like Professor Li's eating style. My grandfather pointed at the bowl in Professor Li's hand and said, "Let's wait until you finish eating the noodles. I'm worried that you will lose your treasure."
It’s soiled!”
"Okay!" When Professor Li heard the word "baby", he immediately stopped talking and wolfed down his food. It seemed that he was really hungry. I thought that the professor would just throw it away when he heard the word "baby".
Rice Bowl said, let’s eat after we finish talking.
We just sat there and watched Professor Li eat. Professor Li is indeed a professor. He is like a beast when he eats. His speed is so joyful. There are too many noodles thrown away. One chopstick pokes him hard, and the next time he eats, he throws the noodles away.
On my grandpa's shoulders.
Everyone except Professor Li, who was eating, all looked at my grandfather.
