Rebirth after Divorce

Early the next morning, Luo Xiao followed his little uncle out of the house.Walking on the road to Linchun Street, looking at the low and dilapidated bungalows on both sides, I was deeply moved: Who would have thought that this is such a place called a slum by the people of City S, but ten years later it would be a slum? A hard-to-find business center.

Thinking of the future housing prices, Luo Xiao couldn't help being excited, but unfortunately, he doesn't have much money now~~ But well, there will be soon~~ Luo Xiao thinks so Then, more excitedly, he walked quickly to his destination.

A grocery store, looking at the five words written on the signboard, Luo Xiao couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth: I have to say, the owner of this store is really good at picking the name of the store... Hehe.

After settling his mind, Luo Xiao put on a curious expression that a ten-year-old child should have at the right time, and strode into the store.An old man over fifty years old sitting in front of the counter looked up at him, then closed his eyes and leaned back on the chair to continue dozing off.

Although it was just a slight glance, Luo Xiao felt that he was seen through by that glance. He calmed down and bit the bullet and began to search in the store.Soon he saw the target at a glance, but in order not to cause any trouble, he patiently looked left and right.

Step by step, he approached the target little by little, and finally, he was able to reach out and touch it.This is a small box with a diameter of ten centimeters, the outside is covered with rust spots, and a lot of dust can be clearly seen falling when picked up.If it wasn't for the fact that he had heard his little uncle say it in detail, he would never have believed it. It was such a box, and the things inside would be so valuable.

After Luo Xiao took the small box in his hands, he took two more things that he had just spotted at a glance: a dirty little peach nut the size of his thumb and a few coins that were also rusty.Although, he really didn't know why he fell in love with these things, but there was a feeling in his heart, as if they were destined to belong to him somewhere.

Luo Xiao frowned and decided to obey his own feelings, because he found that since the seed pattern appeared in the palm of his hand, his feeling, which should be similar to the sixth sense, was very effective sometimes.

"Grandpa, I want to buy these things." Luo Xiao said to the old man who was still dozing off with these three things.

"En?" The old man opened his eyes, a light flashed in his eyes quickly, and then he yawned and said, "Children, these things are not cheap, do you have the money to buy them?"

"How much?" Because Luo Xiao didn't think of buying other things, so the money he brought wasn't a lot, just more or less.

"Well, seeing that you are a child, the old man will not lie to you, so I will charge you five yuan."

"Five dollars?" Luo Xiao frowned, and subconsciously bit his lower lip.All the money was with my little uncle, and all he had was his pocket money and lucky money, which totaled just over four yuan.This is not enough to buy these three things, but he really wants to buy them all.

So, after thinking twice, he asked again: "Grandpa, I don't have that much money on me, yes, can it be a little cheaper?"

"Huh? Don't you have that much money?" The old man didn't show anything on his face, but he was happy in his heart: I'm just waiting for his words!Fortunately, he didn't have enough money, otherwise he didn't know how to continue~

"However, these prices are already the cheapest."

Luo Xiao knew it, he still remembered what the little uncle said about the guy who spent four yuan just to buy this small box, not to mention that the price for three is only five yuan now.

He turned around in his mind, and tentatively said: "Grandpa, I, can I work for you to offset the difference in price?"

"Part-time job?" The old man looked him up and down, "Is it just you with a small body?"

Well, as a ten-year-old child, because of Grandma Yu's long-term embezzlement from his family, and the serious illness during this period, Luo Xiao really looks thinner than other children of the same age.

When Luo Xiao heard this, he couldn't help drooping his shoulders, hey, it seems that he can only give up first.Just when he was about to say something, the old man said again: "Since you like these things so much, then do as you say."

"Huh?" Luo Xiao didn't react for a while.

"What, did you lie to the old man just now?" The old man glared angrily.

"No, no, I didn't lie to you." Luo Xiao hurriedly waved his hands, "Well, how much time do I need to work?"

"Why, do you still want to be lazy and do less work?"

"No, it's just that I'm still in school, and I came here with my uncle this time, so..." Luo Xiao explained.

"What's your name, where are you from?" The old man took a sip of water from his teacup, "How old are you now?"

Luo Xiao replied honestly: "My name is Luo Xiao, I live in Town C, and I am ten years old today." As an old man in his 30s, Luo Xiao still has a good feeling for this old man, so he honestly answered.After all, an old man like him has nothing to gain from a child like him.Besides, he had inquired about this old man beforehand, and learned from the neighbors in the neighborhood that although he didn't have much contact with others, he was still a good person.

"Ten years old~~" the old man muttered in his heart, although he is a little older, but it is still possible, if the talent is good, it will definitely make those guys envious.Anyway, just take a good look at it in the next few days, if it is really suitable, you can start right away, otherwise if those guys find out, they will be snatched away~~~ I think Thinking about some things in the past, it was really a sad history for him~~~

"Huh?" What's wrong with ten years old?Luo Xiao was puzzled, but he didn't ask, just waiting for his next words.

Sure enough, it didn't take long before I heard: "How about this, I will charge you these three things, hey, by the way, how much money did you bring?"

"Four dollars and six." Luo Xiao took off his right shoe, took out a few crumpled banknotes from his socks, counted them on the table and said to the old man.

The old man looked at his movements, and raised his eyebrows involuntarily: Oh, not bad, the kid knows how to put money under his feet, so he is very vigilant.However, the money should not be stained with beriberi, right?

If Luo Xiao knew what the old man was thinking at this time, he would definitely jump up and shout to him with his shoes: You have athlete's foot, and your whole family has athlete's foot!How can someone who actively washes their feet every day have athlete's foot? I love cleanliness, okay?

"Since that's the case, the old man will charge you three yuan."

"Huh? Really?" Luo Xiao was surprised and wondered if he heard it wrong, "Three yuan? All of it?"

"Well, yes." The old man took another sip of water, "However, you have to work with me for a week, from nine in the morning to four in the evening, how about it?"

Luo Xiao nodded without hesitation, "Okay, no problem." He had agreed with his mother that he would stay for more than a week before going back, and now it's just right, the little uncle went to work at eight o'clock. I don't get home from work until five o'clock in the evening. As long as I'm careful, I won't be found.

"That's fine, you can go back today, and you can come here on time at nine o'clock tomorrow morning." The old man took three one-dollar bills, motioned him to put away the rest of the money, and then waved him away.

Luo Xiao, who put the three things in his pocket, had his heart beating faster along the way, fearing that someone would suddenly appear and rob him or something.He ran so fast that passers-by sighed in their hearts: young is good, look at this little guy, he runs quite fast.

After arriving at the place where he was staying, Luo Xiao carefully closed the door, drew the curtains, and after double-checking, carefully took these three things out of his pocket and put them on the table.

He picked up the small broken box first, and wiped it carefully with the towel beside him.After wiping, he saw a small mottled tin box. He took out the prepared scissors and carefully pried the tin box open along the sideline.Sure enough, a small rectangular wooden box about 8 centimeters long and five centimeters wide was exposed inside.Although I don't know what kind of wooden box it is, but just looking at the exquisite carvings on it, it can be seen that it must be of great value, otherwise why would it be wrapped in a tin box?Not to mention the contents of the tin box.

Luo Xiao took a deep breath, and then opened the small wooden box with a serious expression. Inside was a piece of yellowed paper.He picked it up and carefully opened it and placed it on the table. Sure enough, it was a treasure map, just as my uncle said.You know, that person found this picture and tried to find out where it was hidden. As a result, he really found a large number of treasures.It's a pity that this matter was known to other people somehow, and all the treasures inside were robbed.But just like that, that person also became a millionaire with the few treasures he snatched~~~

Thinking of the treasures hidden in the location shown above, Luo Xiao felt a burst of excitement in his heart.What made him most happy was that the place where the treasure was hidden was on the hill in their town, which was always inaccessible.The reason why it is called Broken Head Mountain is because the head of the mountain was chopped off with an axe, and it was called like that over time.

After being excited about the treasure map, Luo Xiao looked at the several coins and the peach nut on the table.The coins were still so rusty after being wiped with a towel, and nothing was different. Luo Xiao checked them repeatedly for a long time but found nothing, so he had no choice but to put them down.

Then, he picked up the peach nut again, and after wiping it, it was quite clean, and there was no difference after looking at it.Suddenly, he found that a part of the peach hu seemed not to be smoothed, so he couldn't help but nail it.Who would have thought that a slippery hand would scratch the palm of the hand by the sharp part of the peach hu.

The palm with the seed pattern suddenly became hot, and a white light suddenly appeared in front of him, making Luo Xiao close his eyes involuntarily...
