Beipai Tomb Raiders Notes

"Giggle!"

There are people raising chickens downstairs where Mr. Liu lives. I was woken up by the crowing of chickens at six o'clock in the morning.

After brushing my teeth and washing my face, I saw that Xiaomi hadn't woken up yet, so I went to call her.

"Wake up, wake up, it's dawn."

"Oh...I got it, Brother Feng."

Xiaomi drilled into the bed and opened his mouth to yawn.

We went downstairs to have breakfast, we stopped a car and said we were going to the Second Street of Cishan Town, the driver thought about it and said he got it, and got in the car.

At this time, I had an idea, that is, it was inconvenient to not have a car.

I can only ride a motorcycle, not as good as Xiaomi, who can not only drive a car but also drive an excavator.

I decided to learn a driver's license when I am free in the next year. I have money, and I will buy a good off-road vehicle by then, so that it will be convenient to find grave sites. After all, my goal in the future is to become bigger and stronger.

Passing the White Swan Hotel all the way to the west, at that time from Wu'an to Cishan Town was basically a small downhill road, and there were many large trucks pulling molten iron from steel mills on the road.

In my impression, there are many steel mills and iron factories on both sides of the road. There are many workers who go to work in the morning. They are in groups, riding bicycles and electric vehicles on the road. Those large iron trucks roar past without even a horn Press, scare me to death.

From Wu'an all the way downhill to the Cishan Bridge, turn left and it is another big downhill. After going down, the road becomes narrow. The driver said that not far ahead is Cishan Second Street, and there is a place called Wannian Mine ahead. , he asked where we got off on Second Street.

I said that it is fine to go to a place with a lot of people, and the driver put us in the Second Street Plaza.

There are many adults and children in the [-]nd Street Square, and some sell sesame seed cakes and steamed buns. I asked a big sister who sold steamed buns by the side of the road, and the big sister spoke with a Wu'an local accent.

"Who are you looking for? Xiang Li? I don't know."

I asked again: "Then do you know the antique seller on Second Street?"

"You said Lao Zhang, Zhang Chunlei is my relative. He has gone to other places and has not come back. If you have anything to do, you can talk to him. He is the chief of the security department of Xinshan Steel Plant."

At that time, there were many people in Cishan [-]nd Street Community, and I asked a few more people, but none of them knew where Master Xiang lived. Later, we had no choice but to go to Xinshan Steel Factory to find the son of an antique dealer.

Because his son must be able to contact the antique dealer surnamed Zhang, and this antique dealer must know the house number of the neighborhood where Xiang Guang lives.

Xinshan Steel Factory is relatively close to the Second Street. When we arrived, the section chief was patrolling the gate. This man was in his 30s, with a bald head, and he was walking around in the guard room with a wooden stick in his hand.

"Hello, is your father Zhang Chunlei?" I asked.

"Who are you? Why are you looking for my father?"

"I'm his friend. Isn't he not at home? We've come all the way here. Can you give me his call and want to talk about some business."

The bald section chief put down his stick and gave me his father's phone number.

I stepped out and dialed, and the call was connected quickly.

"Which one?"

"Hello, Boss Zhang. I'm Xiang Yunfeng. I'm also a land shoveler. I'm from Beijing."

"Yo, the big boss from Beijing, what do you want me to do, shopping?"

I said buy it, I will definitely check it out when you come back, now there is a person who wants to ask you, this person is Xiang Guang, from Hubei, do you know where he lives?

"You mean Old Xiang? You know, he bought several hundred catties of copper arrowheads from me. He is an old friend. He had an operation last year and lives in Building 6, Garden District, Room 103."

After hanging up the phone, I nodded to Liao Bo, saying that I found someone.

......

"Ding dong... Ding dong..." I rang the doorbell when I got there.

"coming."

A woman in her 50s answered the door.

"You are....."

I smiled and said, "Hello, Auntie, is Master Xiang Guang here? We need to find him."

"Who is looking for me?" At this moment, a middle-aged man with a short stature and glasses came to the door.

This person is the replica of Zeng Houyi's Chime Bell, Master Xiang Guang.

I made it clear that I came, and Master Xiang invited me to sit in the room, and his wife poured tea for him.

"Are you looking for No. [-] to unveil the bell?"

"No, I only made one set for Master Gan, and there is nothing extra, so I advised him not to adjust the last bell because it was not perfect. My current physical condition... hey."

Liao Bo said at this time: "Master Xiang, we don't need the original No. [-] bell. A few years ago you copied the set of Zenghouyi chime bells, and you must have melted many bronze wares from the Warring States Period. If you think about it carefully, the chime bells must be made of muddy cast." It is made by extra casting method, then brazing, inlaying, and finally gold inlay, intaglio, round inlay, lacquer, and color painting. During this period, excess materials will definitely be produced.”

Master Xiang was very surprised when he heard Liao Bo's words. He said that your Excellency is also a master.

Liao Bo waved his hand: "You're flattering me. Knowing it doesn't mean you know how to operate it. We only need the leftovers from the original batch of clocks. Of course, we won't take them for nothing. We will compensate you appropriately in terms of economics. You see... Is 1 yuan okay?"

Master Xiang shook his head after hearing this, "It's really gone. In order to find the most suitable alloy ratio, I did a lot of experiments and used up all of them."

"nonsense!"

Master Xiang's wife suddenly said loudly: "There are still under your bed, a pile of broken copper and iron, what's the use of being a treasure."

His wife went straight into the bedroom after speaking, and came out a few minutes later with a sack, and threw the sack to the ground with a bang.

Master Xiang looked at the bag on the ground with pain in his face.

His daughter-in-law pointed to the sack and said, "Take it away, this is it."

Liao Bo opened it, took a look, and nodded to me. I immediately presented a thick envelope with 1 yuan in both hands.

"Hey....."

Watching us take the sack away, Master Xiang Guang put down his teacup and sighed deeply.

Uncle Liao was very happy when he came out. He said, "I didn't expect there to be so many left. Although it is out of shape, it is a bronze alloy that was prepared in batches back then. It is made of the same material as that set of chime bells. Yunfeng now has I have a solid foundation in my heart for this thing, even if I can't repair that one, I can use these to cast another one that is exactly the same."

Liao Bo is full of confidence, his words undoubtedly gave me a reassurance. Also, Liao Bo can even make a wonderful sound bird, so it is so difficult for him to make a chime.

The purpose of this trip has been achieved, we rushed back in the afternoon.

Liao Bo spent the afternoon studying, weighing, and drawing drawings. He kept discussing with Xiaomi and said that the plan would be decided within a day.

Interlacing is like a mountain. As a layman, I can't help, so I won't bother them. When I went to Lantian to find Xiaomei, I ran into Qianlonglong.

I nicknamed Qian Longlong the Dung Bomb.

Regardless of how old he is now, if I meet him one day, I still dare to call him the bomber, he will definitely remember me, and he will call me Brother Feng.

"How about what I told you? Is your grandfather abnormal, such as angry or something?"

Qian Longlong said: "Don't worry, Brother Feng, I take my grandfather seriously, I followed him to the toilet, everything is normal."

"Okay, you fell into the latrine, did your mother beat you later?"

Qian Longlong said it was hit, and he whipped it several times with his belt, and I didn't dare to go to the toilet to fire a cannon anymore.

The plan is to repair the clock tomorrow night, because Xiaomei will be the cover and Qianlonglong will be the internal response. I know that the godfather has not found out yet. This is good news for us.

That is, after two o'clock in the middle of the night this night.

Another strange thing happened.

I live alone in the east room, and there is a rabbit doll on the bed. I am used to sleeping with the rabbit doll in my arms these days.

As I was falling asleep, I suddenly heard the bathroom faucet turned on, the sound of running water was loud, and the TV in the living room was also turned on.

Could it be that Xiaomi didn't sleep so late?

At first I didn't pay attention, I turned over and continued to sleep with the rabbit between my legs. After another ten minutes, the noise was still there.

I sat up from the bed and called Xiaomi twice, is that you?

No one answered outside the living room.

Turning on the bedside lamp, I put on my slippers and opened the door and went out.

The living room was off, and the TV was on.

You should have seen it all, right?At that time, the TV stopped after one o'clock in the evening, and there was no program to watch. There was only a seven-color circular pattern on the TV screen, and it kept making a beeping sound.

I went to turn off the TV and walked to the door of Xiaomi's room.

The door was unlocked, and through the crack of the door, I saw Xiaomi lying on the bed with his back facing me, the quilt kicked aside, obviously falling asleep.

I quietly pushed the door open and went in to cover Xiaomi with a quilt, and then went out to close the door. At this time, the faucet in the bathroom was still on. I thought it might be that Xiaomi forgot to turn it off after washing before going to bed, so I walked straight over.

The bathroom door was closed, it was a little dark, I slowly twisted the handle and pushed the door open.

There's a mirror over the sink.

At this time, I saw a black figure in front of the mirror, who was washing his hair with his head lowered to the faucet. Looking carefully at his back, it was Liao Bo.

Liao Bo kept rubbing his hair without shampooing.

It was all cold water, and the water temperature was very low.

"Uncle Liao, wash your hair? It's cold, don't catch a cold." I called out behind him.

Hearing my words, Liao Bo stopped washing his hair.

He didn't wipe his head, and suddenly turned around to look at me, blinking non-stop.

Liao Bo just kept blinking.

As if blinded.
