It took nearly an hour for the inquirer to return.He told the two: "Several families in this village moved from a small town on the edge of the desert a year ago, and their ancestors were guides to that desert. ”After Chu Luo heard this, he suddenly had an idea, so he asked Li Yan: "Yan, have we found a guide to enter the desert?"
”"Hmm."
Chu Luo said: "Why don't we find one more, since their ancestors were guides in the desert, they must know a lot of legends about Loulan and know more about the roads in the desert." ”Li Yan thought for a while, nodded, and said to the bodyguard, "Find a way to ask a guide to come over." ”"Yes, sir."
After the bodyguard left, Chu Luo asked Li Yan, "Yan, when are we leaving?"
”"Wait two days."
Chu Luo was a little surprised, "Why did you wait so long?"
”"We'll go in after the others."
When Chu Luo heard this, he smiled, "That's not bad, we can monitor the movements of the Duanmu family." ”"Hmm."
When the bodyguards came back this time, Chu Luo and Li Yan had already had lunch.The bodyguard said to Li Yan: "Master, those people, please don't move." ”Li Yan frowned: "Then add money." ”"We've added twice the price in the circle, and we don't want to move them."
Li Yan's brow furrowed even tighter.Chu Luo asked, "How many families in this village have moved from there?"
”"Four households."
Chu Luo thought for a moment: "Since there is a family whose family has gone to lead the way and disappeared, these people will definitely not dare to lead the way again." ”After all, a small life is more important than making money.Chu Luo looked at Li Yan and said, "Yan, why don't we go and meet the other three families later." ”Li Yan nodded.The bodyguards went out.Chu Luo learned the dialect of this side in the helicopter all night last night, and he was a little sleepy after eating at noon.She originally moved a chair to sit next to Li Yan to accompany him, and when Li Yan subconsciously raised her eyes from the laptop to look at her, she saw her holding her head there little by little, so she put the laptop next to her and called her softly: "Luo Luo." ”"Hmm."
Chu Luo responded to him in a daze, but still didn't open his eyes.Li Yan stood up and picked her up and walked towards the bedroom inside, saying as she walked: "You go to sleep for two hours first, and when you wake up, we will meet those three families." ”"yes, okay."
After Chu Luo finished speaking, he tilted his head in his arms and fell asleep.By the time Chu Luo woke up, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon.It was darker here than in the imperial capital, and when the two of them had eaten, it wasn't very dark.The two of them walked slowly towards the village.This village is divided into the east end of the village and the west end of the village, and the east end of the village was all bought by Li Yan's people, and there are more than a dozen families on the west side of the village, but each family is a little far apart.At this time, everyone went home to cook or eat.The two walked all the way through, but no one was seen halfway through.The two walked to one of the houses, which had a large yard surrounded by a bamboo fence, and on the edge of the bamboo fence were planted many shrubs with thorns, and there were several apple trees in the yard, and apples were still hanging on the apple trees at this time.From the gate of the yard to the door of the house, there is a one-meter-wide stone path, and several vegetable patches have been opened up next to the stone path.Such a bad environment gives people a feeling that the years are quiet."
This family really knows how to live."
Chu Luo sighed and then raised his eyes to look at the open door, and said, "It's already dark in the room at this time, why don't they turn on the lights." ”As soon as Chu Luo finished speaking, the lights in the house turned on.Then I saw the four of them come out from the back and sit at the table facing the gate for dinner.Chu Luo looked at Li Yan: "It seems that we came at the wrong time. ”As soon as she finished speaking, she saw one of the children stand up and run outside.Behind him, there was also the hostess's loud order: "Xiaohu, you are only allowed to come back with a pound of wine, and the old lady will beat you up." ”"Got it, Grandma."
The child ran out of the yard at a gallop and ran to the side.It should have been running too fast, and I didn't see Chu Luo and the two of them standing next to him.Li Yan said: "Let's go to the other two first." ”Chu Luo nodded, and the two of them walked towards the other family.The other family had just eaten, and the two continued to the next one.The last one is Lu Lang's children's house, their family should have eaten, and at this time Lu Lang was pestering his father to pick apples in the yard for him to eat.Chu Luo found that the village was basically planted with jujube trees, and these few families were planted with apple trees.She whispered to Li Yan: "They should be very superstitious, and the apple tree means peace, so they planted the apple tree." ”As soon as Chu Luo finished speaking, Lu Lang, who was jumping and jumping under the tree, saw Chu Luo and Li Yan standing outside the courtyard, and hurriedly said to his abba loudly, "Abba, a guest has come to our house." ”Lu Feng, who had already climbed to the apple tree and was about to pick apples, jumped down from the tree, strode to the courtyard door, looked at the two of them with a vigilant face and asked, "Who are you, what are you doing at my house?"
”Li Yan opened his mouth, and even spoke in the local dialect: "We just came here to travel, and my wife wants to eat apples, so I came over to ask, do your apples sell?"
”"You're locals too?
City?
”Chu Luo glanced at Li Yan, who was saying these words seriously, and wondered how he would answer next."
No, my family has moved away from here in my father's generation."
Lu Feng raised his vigilance again."
I'm in the jade business, and I'm here to buy a batch of goods."
Chu Luo found that when Lu Feng heard this, he was actually relieved, and he said, "Then you come in, I'll pick a few apples for you." ”"Thank you."
Li Yan took Chu Luo's hand, and the two followed Lu Feng into the courtyard together.Lu Lang, who was standing under the apple tree, stared at Chu Luo and Li Yan closely, and his eyes clearly wrote: They are so good-looking.Lu Feng saw that his son was stupid there, so he said to him: "Ah Lang, go to the house and ask your aunt to take a basket out, and I will pick some apples for the two guests." ”Lu Lang actually looked at Chu Luo and the two of them without coming back to their senses.Lu Feng directly gave him a head jump, and he suddenly came back to his senses, hurriedly covered his head and ran towards the door silently.Next, Li Yan changed his previous indifference and didn't talk much, and directly talked to Lu Feng about the jade on Qingcheng's side.As a local, you must know a lot about jade.Li Yan spoke skillfully, and guided Lu Feng in three or two sentences.Chu Luo stood by and listened, and at the same time quietly cast a spell, so that the time of the mother and son in the house was set there.The two chatted for a while, Li Yan intentionally or unintentionally said that as long as there is a way in the jade business, he can earn many times more money than the market purchase price, Lu Feng was obviously a little moved, and wanted to follow him to the jade field, so he warmly invited Li Yan to go in and drink.Li Yan did not shirk.Chu Luo lifted the magic, and Li Yan picked an apple directly from the tree for her before following in, and after letting her hold it, the three of them walked towards the door of the house.Lu Feng was a little embarrassed and said, "Look at me, I forgot to pick apples for your wife when I spoke, or I'll pick a few first." ”"No, I'll just eat this one.""
That's good."
As Lu Feng spoke, he shouted into the door: "Baby, get a basin of water and come out to wash the apples for this lady." ”There was an answer from behind, and when the three of them walked in, they saw a woman just come out with half a basin of water.Lu Lang dragged the hem of her clothes and followed her step by step, wanting to peek at Chu Luo and Li Yan, but he didn't dare to peek.Chu Luo washed the apples and sat next to them while listening to their chatting and eating them.Lu Feng asked his wife to bring wine and snacks again.Mrs.
Lu is also a shy woman, and she took Lu Lang into the inner room last night.The two chatted while drinking, Li Yan said that the jade stone head was the way, and Lu Feng was stunned for a moment, and he simply regarded him as the God of Wealth.After three rounds of drinking, Lu Feng was already on his face, and he saw that after he took another sip of wine, he looked like he had never met him: "If only I had met Brother Qin earlier, I had always wanted to do a jade business before, but I had no way, and after losing twice, I had to do some other small business that barely supported my family." ”Li Yan promised to take him with him when the time came, and then turned the topic to the recent rumors about the disappearance of the archaeological team.At this time, Lu Feng had completely relaxed his vigilance, so he said to him: "Brother Qin, I also saw that you didn't tell you privately from outsiders, do you know which tomb the national archaeological team went to?"
”"Which one?""
It's an emperor's tomb that has never returned, and was cursed by heaven, eighteen years ago" I didn't expect that eighteen years ago, Lu Feng's father participated in the tomb robbery, and then never came back."
That tomb is not only a cannibal tomb, but also has a great impact on future generations, as long as the people who participate in the tomb robbery, no matter how long, will have a very difficult life, just like we look at me now, except for mixing food and clothing, there is really no longer a rich life, I heard that other people's descendants are either poor or die miserably."
Li Yan glanced at Chu Luo at this time and asked her if it was true with his eyes.Chu Luo didn't say anything, and she couldn't say for sure.Li Yan asked again: "Since your father is a guide, you should be too, since you are just a guide, it shouldn't matter, right?"
