The years of reselling the haunted house

But this evidence...

Seeing that Huang Wenbai is also a stubborn and stubborn person, if he can't see the proof, he will probably turn us away soon.I scratched my head and groped my body.I was really not prepared for this, Huang Wenbai really stumped me this time.

While groping around on me, I suddenly touched a hard object.My heart moved, I hurriedly took out the thing, handed it to Huang Wenbai, and said, "Can you see this?"

That thing is the Annan coin that we dug out from the ground of the Huang family's old house.

Chapter 968

The history of this kind of Annan Qian was learned by the third uncle through Ma Di.And this kind of Annan money is related to the ancestor of the Huang family, who was the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou at that time.It should not be accidental that An Nanqian appeared in the Huang family's old house.

Sure enough, Huang Wenbai picked up the Annan coin, held it in his hand and looked carefully, his eyes lit up at that moment: "This is... the Annan copper coin... where did you get it?"

"This copper coin...was given to me by Huang Changfu. Don't you want a token and proof?" I saw that Huang Wenbai really knew the copper coin, so I said casually.

Huang Wenbai nodded, took the copper coin in his hand and looked at it carefully.

I saw tears welling up in Huang Wenbai's old eyes.

"Old man Huang, are you...is this copper coin okay?" I asked.

Huang Wenbai seemed to be watching what the copper coin was remembering, and then he realized what I said. His expression was obviously startled, and he quickly wiped the corners of his eyes with his cuff, showing a smile: "Okay. Of course. This copper coin is from my Huang family." s things."

As he spoke, Huang Wenbai handed the copper coin to me tremblingly.

Although Huang Wenbai said it belonged to the Huang family, I said it was given to me by Huang Changfu, so the current ownership should still be with me.

But I see that Huang Wenbai cherishes this copper coin very much, and this copper coin is of no great use to us, it is just that we want to get more clues about the king's coin by relying on it.Now that I saw Huang Wenbai, this copper coin has no practical significance.

So I said: "Old man Huang, since this copper coin belongs to the Huang family, I will return it to Zhao in its entirety, and now it is officially returned to you."

Huang Wenbai was taken aback for a moment, and hurriedly declined, "This... can this work? Isn't this my uncle gave you?"

Huang Wenbai said that he and Huang Changfu had never met each other, so it is estimated that the two did not know each other at all, they were just admiring the name.But this Huang Wenbai is very concerned about the etiquette of family seniority, and he respects Huang Changfu's one uncle.

I nodded: "Old man Huang, we came in a hurry, and we didn't bring you any presents. I will borrow this copper coin as a gift to Buddha, and pass it on to you."

Huang Wenbai was overjoyed, and nodded repeatedly: "Okay. If you have a heart, you have a heart. Then thank you... Then... don't stand there, please come inside."

Sure enough, giving gifts was easy to handle, Huang Wenbai took the copper coins, turned around and led the way, walked through the coffins in the yard, and led us to the main room.

Passing by the coffin he was lying on just now, I took a look and found that there was a bedding inside the coffin. It seems that the old man really used this place as a bed for rest.

Huang Wenbai let us go to the main room, and when we went in, we found that the room was too simple, and there were some tools he used for making birthday cakes everywhere, and there were sawdust all over the floor.

Huang Wenbai felt a little sorry, and hurriedly cleaned up the ground briefly, and moved some stools for us.

I think those stools are also handmade, and the workmanship is very good, but at first glance, there are few people sitting on them, and they are covered with dust.

Huang Wenbai brushed off the dust with his sleeve, and said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry for you guys, the humble house is simple, please bear with me."

The few of us are not fastidious people, except for Liang Yue who frowned and didn't sit down, the three of us sat down carelessly.

I looked at Huang Wenbai and said, "Old Man Huang, can you tell me the story of this copper coin?"

Huang Wenbai nodded: "Actually, it's nothing. Back then, my ancestor was the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, and participated in the local wars during the time of Lord Qianlong..."

Huang Wenbai talked about the history of the Qing Dynasty and An Nanguo, and what he said was almost the same as what my third uncle told me.However, what Huang Wenbai said may be more detailed, and he mentioned some heroic deeds of his ancestor many times during the period.It can be seen that he still respects and respects his ancestors very much.

Soon, Huang Wenbo said that in order to show favor to the Qing Dynasty, the Annan Kingdom at that time proposed to mint a batch of coins engraved with the words Annan for Lord Qianlong.

This is a historical event, and many Annan coins survived at that time, which are well documented.Through some channels, Ma Di also understood these histories very clearly.

But what Huang Wenbo said next came more from his family history.

In almost every dynasty, there is a book that records the historical events of the dynasty, some of which have been handed down, and some have disappeared with the change of history.What happens in a dynasty is called history.It can also be called national history.

Similarly, every family can trace its history back several years, and the accumulation of memorable events like those in these families is family history.

Of course, not every family will record the family history.Many families have problems with food and clothing. Of course, there is no condition to record the changes and events of the family.

And some wealthy families, or high-ranking officials and dignitaries, are definitely willing to use words to record their glorious history so that future generations can look up to them.

As for the ancestor of the Huang family, he was the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, which was a very high achievement at that time.Naturally, such a family history has been handed down in the family.

And this family history happened to be preserved here at Huang Wenbai.

Hearing this, I asked Huang Wenbai: "Old man Huang, you and Huang Changfu are both descendants of the Huang family, but why did you stay in two places with him so far apart?"

Huang Wenbai said with a wry smile: "There are some historical reasons for this. Back then, our ancestors of the Huang family only served as governor of Yunnan and Guizhou for less than one term, so they resigned. Do you know the reason?"

I shook my head, but I always had doubts in my mind.The third uncle also found out from Huang Changfu that the governor of the Huang family had only been an official for a short time before resigning.

I always thought that he had seen through the glory of the world and was indifferent to fame and fortune, but after thinking about it, it was impossible.After all, for a person who is pursuing an official career and his career is on the rise, how could he suddenly resign from office?

Huang Wenbai just asked here today, obviously he knew the details of the reason.

Huang Wenbai went on to say: "Actually, the ancestor of our Huang family received a secret mission at that time, so he had to retire and return to his hometown in order to better carry out the mission."

I was stunned: "Secret mission? What kind of mission is so secret that he needs to step down from his official position? Isn't it easier to carry out in an official position?"

Huang Wenbai shook his head: "It may not be enough to describe the level of secrecy of the mission as a secret mission. It may be more accurate to use secrets, secrets involving power."

"Power? Lord Dragon?" I asked in surprise.

Huang Wenbai nodded: "Yes."

"What mission is that?" I asked.

Chapter 969 Mysterious Mission

Huang Wenbai said with a wry smile: "It's been said that it is a secret involving the imperial power. So this secret mission has not been completely recorded in the family history. All I know is from the family history handed down by my ancestors." Just a few words. But I know that at that time, my ancestors also paid a lot for this task. Not only did they resign from the official position, but they also asked some members of the family to leave this place for fear that this task would go wrong and affect the family. This part of the people is the Huang Changfu you mentioned But ours has stayed here. Later events proved that it was very wise to disperse some of the tribe. Later, for some unknown reason, the Huang family was placed in a foreign country Although they were not punished by the Nine Clans, many people were imprisoned."

Huang Wenbai's thinking is not very clear. When we look back at history, what he said is like a hammer and a broom.We can only listen first, thinking that we will revisit what he said when we have time.

After hearing what he said, I then asked: "Old man Huang, when we were outside, you once said that we came here for copper coins?"

Huang Wenbai said: "Because that mission back then may be related to a copper coin on the emperor's body."

Huang Wenbo probably didn't know that kind of copper coin, but it was actually the Qianlong Tongbao King's coin, one of the Five Emperors' coins.He didn't know the specific name of the copper coin, but just described it as a copper coin on the emperor's body.

But when I mentioned Qianlong Tongbao's Wang Qian, I knew that our trip would not be in vain.

Anyway, after seeing Huang Wenbai here, there was a clue about Wang Qian, which showed that the third uncle's judgment was accurate.Now that we have clues, maybe we can really gain something.

Huang Wenbai went on to say: "Actually, few people know about the fact that my family's ancestors served as the governor. With the passage of time, we belong to the same line of the Huang family. Now, except for me, everyone else has moved out. this place."

At this time, I asked: "Old man Huang, so to speak, your skill in making coffins is not inherited from your ancestors."

Huang Wenbai smiled and waved his hands: "It's just a gimmick if it's not passed down from the ancestors. My coffin-making skills are not passed down from the ancestors, but it is really passed down from my grandfather's generation. At that time, my grandfather was also famous for making birthday materials in this generation." It is a pity that no one in the family inherits this skill, and only I am willing to learn it. Now, you have seen the business, and it can only be said to be a living. I used to live here in peace, but recently I don’t know why in [-], but my side seems to be bustling. People keep coming to my side. Although they didn’t tell me clearly, I can hear things like copper coins from their conversations. So you guys are here, My first instinct was that I came here for copper coins."

I nodded: "Uncle Huang, I'm not going to hide it from you. We really came here for a copper coin. It's the one you said, the one that the emperor carried with him. But judging from the circumstances you just described, I think To get the clue of this copper coin, you must solve the mysterious mission your ancestor received back then, right?"

Huang Wenbai nodded: "That's right, they are interrelated. Regarding the mysterious mission, there are only a few words in the family history, only mentioning "Dragon Qi". I think only the emperor has Dragon Qi, so this mysterious mission must be It is related to the imperial power. At that time, An Nanguo minted these An Nan coins, which were not many at first. The emperor granted some of them to my ancestors. Most of these coins were buried with the ancestors. Uncle Huang Changfu left the family. At that time, I also took a few. So now our Huang family has not many Annan coins. Although this kind of copper coin is not worth much, it represents the glory of my ancestors, so I was a little excited when I saw it... ..."

After listening to what Huang Wenbai said, the little hope that had just risen in my heart gradually faded.In fact, what Huang Wenbai said is similar to what my third uncle analyzed at home.Even if he said a little more than Third Uncle, it wasn't of much value.

Because I don’t know whether Huang Wenbai refused to tell us about the mysterious mission that year, or he really didn’t know.In short, now we only know that the mysterious mission that the Huang family received was related to the Dragon Qi.The third uncle analyzed that it was to use some kind of feng shui to replenish dragon energy for Qianlong Tongbao.Because the copper coin became cracked as Emperor Qianlong's imperial career was about to end.Only by supplementing the dragon energy can it be restored.

But these are the analysis of the third uncle in the future, and they are not mentioned in the family history.Therefore, it is impossible to find any deeper clues about the five emperors' money.Even if the fact of supplementing the dragon energy is established, we don't know how it was supplemented at that time.

We sniffed out the news, and when we got here we were interrupted again.

The emotions of the few of us are a little low at this time.I don't know how to develop next.

Huang Wenbai saw that we were a little depressed, he thought for a while, and suddenly said: "Something happened in a nearby village recently, and I don't know if it is related to that mysterious mission back then."

I was taken aback and asked, "The village? What happened? Why do you say that?"

Huang Wenbai said: "Actually, the family history I have seen is not the original one. It may have been transcribed by later generations, and the transcribed is not complete. Many contents have been deleted on purpose. That is true. It should have been buried underground. I really want to use your power to unravel the secrets of the past. After all, so many years have passed, and it is now a new era. We don't need to continue to bury those secrets deep in the ground. I To unravel the secret and rehabilitate our Huang family, I can't continue to live with infamy."

I thought to myself, this Huang Wenbai is also a stickler.No matter what crimes were charged against Huang Jia'an back then, it was also a matter of the Qing Dynasty.You are living in modern times now, and you will definitely not live with the infamy of that time.

But it can be seen that Huang Wenbai attaches great importance to the honor and disgrace of their Huang family, so it is understandable that he will do his best to find evidence for the family to be rehabilitated.

Huang Wenbai changed the subject, and then talked about the village: "Something happened to the village I mentioned recently, and I intuitively feel that it may have something to do with our Huang family."

"Why do you say that?" When I heard Huang Wenbai bring up the topic of the village again, my heart was moved.It seems that this clue has not been interrupted. If we can follow this clue, maybe we will find something.

Chapter 970

Huang Wenbai said: "When my ancestors resigned from office, they led some people to station in a place called Sanshoutun. The village where the accident happened is now called Sanyangpu, and its predecessor was Sanshoutun. In other words, the present Sanyangpu is the place where my ancestors once lived. Every plant and tree left there may leave the imprint of my ancestors. The reason why I still stay here is also to distance myself from My ancestor's place is closer. It can be regarded as keeping a thought."

"What happened in that village? After talking for a long time, you didn't say anything." Fat Dahai asked impatiently beside him.

Huang Wenbai does have this problem, or it may be that he wants us to know too much at once, and the content of what he said is also irregular.

I patted Pang Haihai: "Why are you in a hurry? How can you talk to old man Huang?"

Huang Wenbai smiled and said: "It's okay. It's true that I'm stupid and I don't know what I said. How about it. You and I go to the village directly. The old village head of Sanyangpu is good friends with me. I got the news from him. , Now their village seems to be in some trouble. You are here, just to help take a look."

With that said, Huang Wenbai led us out.

When he came outside, Ma Di's phone rang suddenly.

Ma Di answered the phone and had a few conversations with the inside.Suddenly he said to me: "Li Yang, I have to leave for a while, so you go to that village first, and I will go back to the town first."

I was taken aback: "What? What's the matter?"

Ma Su said, "It's nothing serious. Didn't I say I came to visit an old man? Now that he has heard, I have to go see him."

"Then... how about this, Liang Yue will drive you back. I don't feel at ease if you go back alone."

Liang Yue asked, "Then what do you do?"

At this time Huang Wenbai said: "Don't worry, I also have a car, just take my car to Sanyangpu later."

So, at the gate of Huang Ji Shoucai, the four of us divided into two groups and acted separately.

Pang Dahai and I took some of our necessary supplies from the pickup truck and carried two bags.

Liang Yue sat in the driver's seat and said to me: "Be careful, I'll be back after seeing off the old horse."

I nodded: "Don't worry. Don't worry, what can happen to me and the fat man. Just take care of the old horse. And... thank you for caring about me so much."

Liang Yue pursed her lips and glared at me: "Who cares about you? Wait for me to come back safely. Don't act on your own under any circumstances. Do you hear me?"

I responded with a grin.I didn't expect Liang Yue to be so serious that she insisted on forcing me to express my opinion.

I had no choice but to say: "Okay, I promise you, before you come back, I will definitely not act on my own, can't I?"

Only then did Liang Yue nod in satisfaction. As soon as she stepped on the gas pedal, the pickup truck roared and drove away with the old horse.

Pang Dahai watched the car go away, and said: "Who is this old horse going to meet? It's so mysterious and in such a hurry, can't we see you when we go back?"

I shook my head: "Didn't he say it? It's a private matter for him. He didn't say much, and we can't ask too much. But it's fine if they leave. It seems that we don't need so many people to go to the village. , It’s not good if the goal is too big. We’re just going to find out the news, two people are enough.”

Pang Dahai also nodded, turned around and asked Huang Wenbai: "I didn't see it, do you still have a car? Where is it, let's go too?"

Huang Wenbai pointed to the back of the house: "It's at the back, wait for me for a while, I'll get a car."

As he spoke, Huang Wenbai trotted to the back to drive.

Fat Dahai hugged his shoulders, pointed in the direction where Huang Wenbai was leaving, and said, "Boss, did you see? You're a coffin, and you've already bought a car. When do you think I can buy a car?"

I glanced at him: "Don't you cry poor boy, didn't you get a lot of money from selling the haunted house? Adding your salary in the intermediary company, it adds up to a small hundred thousand, right? Isn't it enough to buy a small car? ?”

Pang Dahai waved his hand: "I don't want a small car. Look at my body. If you want to buy it, I'll buy a big one. It's quite stylish. When I drive back to my hometown, my wife may be very happy to see her."

I smiled and said: "This is easy to handle. You can buy a bus, which is big and stylish, and can also pull people. When you go back to the village, you can pull all the men, women, old and children in the village. Do you want to pull the wind?"

"Pfft..." Fatty was looking forward to the sky, and was amused by my words.

In fact, I know that Fatty is very filial to his old lady. Even though he knows that my old lady can't spend much in his hometown, he still transfers most of his money to his mother.

And he followed me here and there, not only because of his loyalty, but also partly because he wanted to make more money so that my old lady could live a better life.

Fatty and I were waiting here for Huang Wenbai, when we saw a car driving out from the side of the outer wall of the yard.

The eyes of Pang Dahai and I were straight at that time.

It was true that a cart came out, but it was a donkey cart.Huang Wenbai was sitting on the horizontal board of the donkey cart, holding a whip, and was driving the donkey cart towards us.

The fat man glanced at me: "Boss, is this his car?"

I scratched my head: "It should be. Now that I think about it, they really didn't say it was a car."

"Hey..." Huang Wenbai drove the donkey cart to us, stopped the cart, and waved at us: "What are you doing in a daze? Get in the cart..."

"Oh, come on..." The fat man and I agreed, and climbed into the donkey cart one from the left and the other from the right.

"Sit down...drive...crack..." Huang Wenbai flicked his whip in the air, and there was a crisp whistle, and the big black donkey pulled the cart and walked forward.
