Such a ruthless woman actually escaped from birth when the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was destroyed, and it was later rumored that she lived in seclusion abroad.

"But who is the person who painted this painting?" Cong Yang suddenly reacted, pointing to the painting and said: "Look, this painting is so realistic, it's like seeing the scene at that time, and it is specially inlaid with jewels Come to think of it, it must have a special meaning, who is the owner of this painting, and the third uncle didn't give any clues, so how do we find it?"

"It's not." Bai Yi raised the envelope in his hand, and there was a receipt inside, which showed the name of the gallery, "I bought this painting from this gallery. I've heard of this store. He only sells Paintings, and only sell ancient paintings. The owner is an old man in his 60s. I don’t really like paintings. I heard that it is a family business handed down from my ancestors, so I have persisted. He usually collects ancient paintings all over the country. You also know that when the artist is alive, the painting may not be worth much, but after the person dies, the value of the thing will go up, so the business of this gallery is good. A few will be selected for auction.”

"Third uncle seems to be very interested in this painting." Fu Yu said, "I just don't know what is the mystery in this painting."

"Young King." Bai Yi turned the envelope over, saw the two words on it, and thought deeply: "Young King refers to the son of Hong Xiuquan. At that time, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was broken and the Taiping Army who escaped from the Taiping Gate, Qian Wang Hong Renxuan commanded the entire army, and one of his important orders is to protect the young heavenly king, could it be said that it has something to do with the young king?"

"Third Uncle really sent you a difficult problem this time." Wei Yi said, "I really can't figure out what Third Uncle is thinking. Unfortunately, he is in a high position, and the number of times he has contacted us is limited."

"Don't be afraid, let's go to the owner of the gallery first." Fu Yu said.

"Then it will be hard for you to find a way to decipher the mystery of this painting." Wei Qing and his wife left the painting and the envelope and left.

Xiao Shan and Cong Yang looked at each other, with helplessness in their eyes, Cong Yang spat on the ground: "I'm so anxious, what kind of mindless task is this?"

"Don't talk anymore, the matter has come to an end, let's solve the problem first." Bai Yi said: "Let's go, let's meet the gallery owner now."

The owner of the gallery does not work in the gallery, but drinks tea leisurely in a nearby teahouse. Bai Yi and the others found him after inquiring. He has a gray beard and a cheerful appearance. He looks a bit like Maitreya Buddha. Someone came to look for him. Said that most people would think that he was here to discuss business, but he was not in a hurry, and first greeted everyone to drink tea: "I am bored drinking alone, this is good, someone is here for company."

When Bai Yi came, he only brought Fu Yu with him, a pair of neighbors, and they were really attractive. They looked at each other and smiled, without saying much, they really sat down and drank tea with the boss. Chatting was pleasant, until after drinking a pot of tea, the boss got to the point: "Are you two here to buy paintings?"

Bai Yi put the receipt of the painting on the table: "Boss, we have this painting in our hands now. We are a little curious, so we came here to inquire. Who is the owner of this painting?"

"This..." The boss squinted his eyes and recalled it carefully: "Oh, I collected it from the countryside. The family was unwilling to sell it at the beginning. The first time they rejected me, but the second time they came to look for it on their own initiative. Mine, I heard that someone in the family was sick and needed money urgently, so I had to transfer it, and I took advantage of the fire to rob it."

"It doesn't count." Fu Yu said with a smile: "If you know the situation of the other party's family and you take the initiative to go to the door, then you are really taking advantage of the fire to rob, and it is useless to take it."

These words are very suitable for the boss. He stroked his beard and nodded again and again: "This girl speaks well, I like it, okay, I'll tell you about that family."

Bai Yi was ecstatic: "Then in return, I'll treat you to another pot of good tea."

"Okay, okay, I'm being disrespected." The boss is a straightforward person, not polite, and immediately agreed.

The family who sells paintings is in the Xiao District of this city. The owner is a middle-aged man in his forties. He has opened a farmhouse at home. The yard is full of grapes. It is very cool when you walk in. Fu Yu can't help but say : "This is a good place to come from, but it seems to be a little bit depressed today."

The yard is obviously full of greenery, but there are not many guests. When the boss heard the footsteps, he immediately came out to greet the guests, but he looked tired. Thinking that there are sick relatives in his home, this look is normal, Bai Yi Looking at each other with Fu Yu, they already had a tacit understanding, and the two pretended to be customers, ordered a few dishes and sat under the grape arbor, chatting with the middle-aged man indiscriminately, but the middle-aged man obviously had no intention of talking The two of them didn't know how to mention that painting for a moment, they exchanged glances, and Bai Yi said loudly: "Your painting is really interesting, it's still inlaid with jewels, have you checked those things? ,is that true?"

Fu Yu pursed his lips and smiled: "What's there to test, I think it was embedded in some counterfeit goods, I only want that product to be fresh, a female general of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, this is still rare."

The voices of the two of them were not too loud, just enough for the boss to hear the truth. He shook his hands, and Bai Yi saw the truth. In this way, the painting was indeed made by him, and Bai Yi decided to set fire to it. Add another shot of oil: "It's a pity for the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. It was obviously a vigorous uprising. In the end, the tragic death, the exile, and the exile were completely disintegrated. Speaking of it, the internal division is the root cause. From this point of view , I don’t feel sorry anymore.”

The boss buried his head in silence, Fu Yu stood up and walked around the yard: "Boss, can I borrow the restroom?"

Bai Yi watched Fu Yu go to the bathroom, and felt strange in his heart. When Fu Yu came back, Fu Yu said softly: "It doesn't look like there is a sick person at home, it is very tidy, there is no one in the room, and I have looked at all the rooms. , but at the back of the yard, there is a lot of food piled up, as if it is going to travel far away. The tidiness of the house is not a problem. The problem is that there are sick people at home, so why travel far? Even if you have to travel far, such a large amount of food is not a problem. Three or four people can finish it."

Fu Yu's analysis made sense, and Bai Yi frowned: "Let's not startle the snake, I'll call Xiao Shan and Qi Xie to come over and watch the boss to see what kind of medicine he sells in his gourd."

"Alright." Fu Yu nodded.

The boss was very taciturn. From the beginning to the end, he didn't say a few words except asking what kind of food to eat and paying the bill. He went out and drove a few dozen meters out of the farm, and saw Xiaoshan and Qixie. He was very smart and didn't trespass without permission. Bai Yi got out of the car and told them the exact location, telling them to keep an eye on the boss and keep in touch at all times. Xiao Shan hadn't done such an exciting job for a long time, so he looked very excited and said nothing After agreeing, watching Bai Yi and Fu Yu leave, Xiao Shan poked Qi Xie: "Brother Qi Xie, shall we go?"

Qixie smiled wryly: "Alright."

The two lurked near the farm, and there has been no change. Under the repeated commotion on the hill, the two had a meal at the nearby farm. During this period, they also inquired about the situation there. The boss here said, The neighbor's house is very low-key, and they seldom interact with the neighbors here. As for the fact that there is a sick person in the house, they have never heard of it. The guy in charge of making tea even said: "I always feel that there is an invisible person in their house. He Every once in a while, I have to prepare a lot of food and bring it back with a car, but there are no guests in their house during this time, but those things are gone, which means that they are still eaten. If there are no invisible people, where are these things? went?"

The little guy was knocked down, his words made people feel hairy, and the boss snorted: "Don't talk nonsense, go make tea!!"

The little guy muttered, and reluctantly walked away. He was talking at this moment, Xiaoshan and Qixie looked at each other. What are they looking for?Xiaoshan settled the bill with Qixie, sneaked to the vicinity until night, the middle-aged man finally made a noise, he alone loaded all the luggage into a small truck, said it was luggage, but through the shape of the bag Judging, it should be filled with various canned foods.

"So much, where is he going to get it?" Xiao Shan whispered.

Qixie didn't say a word, just pointed at the trailer of the pickup truck, and then pointed at them, Xiaoshan understood, at this time, the middle-aged man had already gotten into the truck, and it was about to start, the two of them were like two off-strings. Arrow, quickly jumped into the carriage, lying on the carriage, without anyone noticing that the middle-aged man was burying his head in starting the car, not to mention that there were already two uninvited passengers lurking in the carriage.

The two people lurking in the rear compartment both turned their mobile phones to silent. Xiao Shan had an idea, turned on the GPS of his mobile phone, and at the same time sent a text message to him. By doing this, he could let Bai Yi and others at home, through the computer, A piece of software to track their whereabouts, it turns out that mastering a technology is so important.

Bai Yi and others at home received the message and immediately turned on Xiao Shan's computer. On the map, a red dot was slowly moving. Cong Yang couldn't help but said, "I used to always feel that Xiao Shan was lying in front of the computer all day long. I don't know He was doing something, and only now did he realize that this guy is really a genius, no wonder he was formed by absorbing the aura of heaven and earth."

"Looking at the movement of the red dot, you are walking towards the beach." Shen Bing said: "Then the boss is going to the beach for vacation, right?"
