Nocturnal

Chapter 18 The Family

"Well, the airs are very big." Nakun sat down, and while directing Li Yedu to make tea, he said, "You probably haven't heard of the Four Great Aristocratic Families, have you? To put it bluntly, they are all old gods who mess around... What about running errands and fortune-telling?" Feng Shui..."

Li Yedu coughed.

Qin Mochi smiled.

"Okay," Na Kun changed the subject helplessly, "You don't need to know about these aristocratic families pretending to be B, and you won't have any contact with them, right? I'll just tell you about the situation of the Sima family first."

"The ancestors of the Sima family were not actually Taoist children, they just went to the rivers and lakes." Na Kun looked at the two people in front of him sincerely, "Really."

The two looked at him expressionlessly.

"Why don't you two believe me?" Na Kun squeezed out a very sad expression, "The ancestors of the Sima family did set up small stalls on the street, testing their characters, checking Feng Shui, and occasionally taking a little boy who was not good enough. Monster or something. 300 years ago, a large-scale conflict broke out between the demon clan and the Taoists, so..." Nakun paused, "So all the decent celestial masters died, and there were not a few truly capable ones left People. If you are taller than a dwarf, a small sect like the Sima family will come out on top."

Qin Mochi was a little curious about what Na Kun said about the conflict between monsters and celestial masters, but seeing Na Kun's expression clearly didn't want to continue this topic, Qin Mochi didn't force it anymore, he could go home and ask Well, Xia Zhifei, Xia Zhifei has an official status, so he probably knows a lot.The only thing he was not sure about was whether these things counted as confidential content, if so, Xia Zhifei would not tell him.

"Is their home in Zhongnan Mountain?" Qin Mochi asked him curiously, "Live in seclusion?"

Na Kun nodded.

"Since you live in seclusion, what are you doing in Laihai?"

Na Kun poured the brewed tea into the cup, and gently pushed it in front of him, disapproving of his question just now, "It is said that he is living in seclusion, but he is not willing to really hide from the world, it is just to promote his own status and gain fame. The more people like them, the more they value their own status in the world. A bunch of hypocrites, don't pay attention to them."

Li Yedu asked him worriedly, "He won't go to Mochi again, will he? I don't think he's the type to listen to advice."

Na Kun thought for a while, "It's possible." He looked at Qin Mochi, and reminded him, "Try not to conflict with him. He's very arrogant. To deal with him, you just have to put down your body and shoot him dead. Just fart."

Qin Mochi, "..." He felt a bit bitter in his mouth. If Sima Cheng really wanted to "conflict" with him, how could he resist such a "conflict"?

Li Yedu was very dissatisfied with this answer, "Sima Cheng traveled all the way to Linhai, so he couldn't have caught Mochi, right? He has nothing else to do?"

"I can't say that. If it's because of the previous murder case, it doesn't seem to be the case. The person who died was a very marginal relative of the Sima family. It stands to reason that people like Sima Cheng shouldn't be alarmed... Well, don't you Seeing how neurotic he is, he still has a lot of status in the Sima family." Nakun is not very familiar with the people of the Sima family, if it weren't for the friendship between his master and the older generation of the Sima family, Sima Cheng would not necessarily come to Haihai. Come and visit him.

Li Yedu stroked his chin and pondered, "If he's too busy, why not find him something to do."

Na Kun looked at him worriedly, "What are you going to do?"

Li Yedu smiled slyly, "I'll think about it first, and I'll tell you when I have an idea."

Qin Mochi looked at him with a sly expression, and suddenly remembered that this guy has been in the sea for so long, and he has never revealed his identity to himself. He refused to say anything when asked, and stood aside looking at himself like a bystander. It was so lively that I was still envious of his "brotherly love".

Li Yedu didn't pay attention to the changing expression on Qin Mochi's face, and told him with concern: "If someone from the Sima family is looking for you, you must remember to tell me, um, you can also tell the senior brother."

Qin Mochi snorted.

"It's best to say hello to the 'Special Affairs Section'." Li Yedu asked Na Kun worriedly, "The Sima family won't really fight against the 'Special Affairs Section'?"

Na Kun shook his head, "As long as he's not stupid, he shouldn't."

Sima Cheng is not a young man, after they reminded the relationship between the Sima family and the "Special Affairs Section", he should not act impulsively anymore.

Li Yedu said again: "If they still don't give up, I will not be polite!"

Qin Mochi asked him casually, "What if you're welcome? Accept him? Can you accept the celestial master?"

Na Kun and Li Yedu laughed together.

Although he was unhappy, seeing Li Yedu's smile, Qin Mochi's expression softened involuntarily.

Li Yedu raised his hand, as if he wanted to touch his head, but in the end he lowered it and pinched his ear lightly, "Don't worry, brother, I'm amazing."

When he was about to leave, Qin Mochi remembered the main purpose of coming to see Na Kun today: Miss Lynx's antique jewelry.

Na Kun took the wooden box from him, and taught Qin Mochi while pulling the contents of the box, "The wooden box itself is an antique, it should be from the late Ming Dynasty... Bu Yao is from the late Tang Dynasty, and the craftsmanship is good... The jade pendant is even older It's a little longer, and it's worth the money... The Chaozhu is from the early Qing Dynasty, and its appearance is not bad, but this thing has a large amount of existence and is very recent... Eh, what is this?"

Qin Mochi looked at the black hairpin in his hand, shook his head, "I don't know."

Na Kun looked at it over and over for a long time, and then went to the workshop to ask his subordinates to test it with instruments, but still did not draw any clear conclusions. The appraiser of "Yipintang" believes that its organizational structure is similar to animal bone fossils, but its density far exceeds that of ordinary animal bone fossils, and its hardness is also very high, almost comparable to red sapphire.

As for the things that the appraiser was not sure about, Na Kun didn't bother to think about it, so he threw it back into Qin Mochi's hands, and took the remaining few things.Qin Mochi liked the delicate texture of the hairpin, looked over it over and over again, and decided to keep it for himself.But Nakun can't give him a price for this thing, so he can only discuss it with Miss Lynx himself.

Na Kun closed the lid of the box and asked Qin Mochi, "Is it convenient for her to come over? When things come to me, I always have to sign a contract."

Qin Mochi nodded to express his understanding, took out his mobile phone and found the landline number left by Miss Lynx.It is said that it hasn't been long since the girl got her residence permit, and she still doesn't know how to use many electronic products. The contact person left for Qin Mochi is his uncle who works at Badaoling Farm.This phone number probably also belonged to my uncle's house.

The phone rang twice and was picked up.

Qin Mochi didn't hear anyone's voice, so he asked suspiciously, "Is anyone there? Is it Mr. She from Badaoling Farm?"

A man's lazy voice came from the other side of the phone, "It's Badaoling Farm." The man's voice was lazy and gorgeous, with a cool silky texture in his ears, "Who are you looking for?"

"Excuse me, are you Mr. She?" Qin Mochi asked him politely, "I'm looking for his...uh, niece."

"My surname is Rong." The man said, "Why are you looking for She Ling?"

"She came to my shop to sell some things just now..." Qin Mochi said, "I entrusted these things to Yipintang for auction. If Miss Sheling has time, can you come over and sign a contract?"

The man on the other side of the phone said "Oh", indicating that he understood, "What time?"

Qin Mochi looked up at Na Kun, and saw that Na Kun frowned slightly, with a hint of suspicion in his eyes.

Qin Mochi coughed.

Na Kun seemed to be startled, and raised his eyebrows to look at Qin Mochi.Qin Mochi mouthed, "Can you do it tomorrow?" Na Kun nodded, looking at the phone in his hand, and the look of doubt in his eyes deepened.

"Is it okay tomorrow? The main store of 'Yipintang' on Nanjiang Street."

The man on the phone said lightly, "Yes."

"Okay, that's it." Qin Mochi hung up the phone, always feeling that something was wrong, but he couldn't find it.Then he remembered that this person's surname was Rong, and he was from Badaoling Farm. Could this person be the Rong Xin whom the old master mentioned that day?

Qin Mochi asked Na Kun, "Brother Kun, who is Rong Xin?"

"Rong Xin from Badaoling Farm?" Na Kun came back to his senses, frowned slightly, as if he was not very willing to continue this topic, "There is nothing to say, an ordinary farmer."

Qin Mochi felt a little helpless. If Rong Xin was really just an ordinary farmer, how could Kun know him?

Na Kun asked him, "Are you coming over tomorrow?"

"No," Qin Mochi shook his head, "For the price of the hairpin, please discuss it with the girl She Ling, senior brother, and then I will transfer the money directly to her account."

Na Kun nodded, "OK."

Qin Mochi wisely stopped asking, his purpose of coming to find Na Kun today has already been achieved, these few antiques will surely earn enough money for Miss Lynx to open a shop after passing through Na Kun's hands.And it was an unexpected joy to recognize Na Kun. For Qin Mochi, the missing memories about childhood finally began to be made up bit by bit.The only thing that makes him dissatisfied is that Li Yedu has been in Linhai for so long, and he has never revealed the truth to him.

Qin Mochi stretched out his finger and nodded at Li Yedu.

Li Yedu showed an inexplicable expression, with a smile on his face, looking silly.

Qin Mochi, "..."

People don't care about it at all, it's meaningless to worry about it, but he is a little bit unwilling to let it go.

Qin Mochi's fingers trembled twice, "You wait."

Li Yedu watched him turn and leave angrily, with a bewildered expression on his face.Qin Mochi asked him to wait...

What are you waiting for? !

After the first lunar month, it was sunny for half a month, the wind was warm on the face, and the green grass in the flower beds by the roadside had a layer of fresh color.

Qin Mochi sat on the steps beside the flower bed, holding the phone between his shoulders and ears, while struggling to take out a lighter from his pocket to light a cigarette for himself.

On the other end of the phone, Xia Zhifei was still nagging anxiously, "...Are you kidding me? The noses of those aristocratic families almost grew to the sky, even our captain has to be polite to them..." It’s not flattery, don’t put it so harshly, we are like workers, they are technical guides... Yes, experts, that’s what it means. You can’t tell when you will ask them to help, and you can’t offend them openly... "

Since the meeting at Na Kun's house that day, Sima Cheng has been eyeing Qin Mochi, and made several phone calls to the "Special Affairs Department", urging them to examine Qin Mochi, an unlicensed monster—whether they all run on him, Do you have to go through official procedures to collect monsters in the city?Then the "Special Affairs Section" will come.

Qu Zhi was too lazy to deal with him, and directly pushed the matter on Xia Zhifei, causing Xia Zhifei to have a headache.

Some people only believe that seeing is believing.Obviously, Sima Cheng is such a person.
