How to get started

When night fell, the house was much quieter than before.

Persimmon was rummaging in the room for his Yang copper coins.When I was blinded by a ghost last time, I found that the Nayang copper coin was missing.

Brother Chen offered incense to Persimmon's parents in the living room, and then studied the books borrowed from the library, hoping to find some clues to release the rookie from the bead.Since Gui Yi is not the only one who knows how to do that, Boss Zang will too.Then their faction should not be the only two of them.Maybe someone else would like to help them?Or help them for money.

Xiaopang was sitting in front of the computer in his room, still studying the floor plan of the house.In the room at this time, there was the whispering sound of persimmon from time to time.

In the next second, Xiaopang's scream was heard: "Persimmon! Persimmon!"

Persimmon leaned against the door of his room with a chicken coop on his head, and said, "What are you doing? Did you go to hell?"

"It's really a hell!" Xiaopang yelled, jumped out of the bed and pulled him onto the bed. "Look at this!"

"Isn't this the entrance to the official financial store? Haven't you studied enough today?" Persimmon looked at the screen, said angrily, and was about to turn around and go back to his room to continue looking for his Yang copper coins.You know, his own Nayang copper coin has long been lost.Holding this now is still given by Sister Xingfu.Copper coins are easy to find, but yin and yang copper coins are not so easy to get.

"Come back! There is a real problem with that door."

"Okay, tomorrow your young master is happy, so I will spend tens of thousands of yuan to buy back his broken door panel, disassemble it into strips, and study it slowly." As soon as Persimmon left, Xiao Pang opened his mouth and was speechless. Come.That was the painstaking effort he worked out with great difficulty.I want to say that no one listens.

Five minutes later, there was a sound of a table falling in the living room.The persimmon flew out at once.Although the things here are all antiques decades ago, every piece of furniture here is the testimony of his parents.The antique TV set in their house was smashed by Xiaopang.Don't tear down the table again.

When Persimmon rushed to the living room, Xiao Pang was projecting the screen on the white wall with his mobile phone, and smiled at Persimmon with satisfaction: "Welcome. Please sit down. Let's talk about it for the two of you. Possibility of hiding something."

Brother Chen sat on the sofa and patted the position beside him.Persimmon looked at this posture, if he didn't sit down and listen for a while, he would be beaten up by Xiaopang.

Persimmon also sat down, and said: "Speak, tell, help me dismantle my bed in a while, I'll look for my copper coins in the crack of the bed."

Finally, some people can listen to him carefully. Xiaopang pointed to the picture on the projection and said: "From the structural point of view, the house should be a house from the 70s. It has been more than 60 or even 70 years ago. It is estimated that It's about to be demolished."

"Let's get to the point." Persimmon said.

Brother Chen was still relatively calm, and continued to listen to him.

"In the construction of houses in the 70s, wooden boards were used in many places. Compared with the current house building technology, it is much backward. At that time, the forestry industry was just a little free, but it was very restrictive to use wooden boards. In urban houses, the door is only [-] cm [-] or [-] cm [-]. This is only the door frame, and the door panel in the middle is even thinner. The wood in the countryside is better, but at most the door is only [-] cm [-], [-] cm [-] .As for the door panels of this house, please look at the pictures and compare them.”

They didn't pay much attention to the door panel when they were there today, at least not to measure the edge of the door panel.So they don't have the data on that door panel.

But if you just use the pictures for comparison, it can be clearly seen that the door panels of the official financial store are much thicker than the door panels of houses in the same period.The thickness of the door panel is about the same as that of a rich family.But it was just a small storefront, and it was indeed a problem to have such a thick door panel.

Xiaopang continued: "There is a black substance on the door panel."

He enlarged the picture of the door panel he took, and then dragged it to a corner. "Look at this place. We see that the door panel is black, but in fact? At the beginning, it should not be black, but, this place, red."

A few scratches appeared where Xiaopang drew, and the scratches were red.

"The black part, we can consider it as oxidation, or moldy or something. Anyway, it's not its original color. After 70 years, even dust can make the door panel black. But in these corners, it can still be See some of its original color. Red."

Brother Chen said: "It's nothing. In those days, many people, especially in rural areas, used cinnabar to paint the door. It's normal for the red to be cinnabar."

Persimmon laughed, stood up, patted Xiaopang on the shoulder and said, "Little Fatty, come on. I'll wait for your next wonderful analysis."

Persimmon was just about to turn around and go back to look for his copper coins, when Xiaopang said behind him: "That's a ghost market, even if it's in the Yang world, it's a Yin land. Is it appropriate to use cinnabar to wash the door in such a place? And let's walk out When I was there, I paid attention to the surrounding houses. None of them kept this kind of door. Why did they leave this door there? A cinnabar door appeared in the ghost market."

Persimmon stopped in his footsteps, and he looked at Brother Chen.Brother Chen knows some professional knowledge better than them.

Brother Chen was also silent for a while, and then said: "In the feng shui of Yangzhai, cinnabar is used to decorate the door layout. It is indeed abnormal for cinnabar to appear in the shade."

"The house is on Yang's side after all. Then it shouldn't be a big problem with cinnabar."

Brother Chen looked at Persimmon and said seriously: "But have you thought about it? That house was Guiyi's 'Jing Yuan' on the night of the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year. It was the same house."

After thinking for a while, Persimmon said, "I'll buy that door panel tomorrow. Let's go pick up the cutting machine and cut it into strips to have a look."

This idea should suit Xiaopang's appetite very well. He gave a thumbs up to Persimmon, and said, "Persimmon, mighty!"

To buy an old door panel from 70 years ago, Persimmon’s three-year salary is more than enough.But Brother Chen still found something wrong.

"It's not that simple. The rookie's bead was also brought out from the ghost market. When you get here, you can't even look at it. You take down the door panel of others and move it here. Will it cause any adverse reactions? I don’t even know this.”

Persimmon and Xiaopang glanced at each other, feeling that Brother Chen's words made sense, they froze for a moment.

A few seconds later, Fatty said, "It's a big deal, we took the tools and dismantled it directly in the alley."

Persimmon nodded in agreement, but thought again: "You said, if we really remove the door of that store, then when it comes to the ghost market, will Gui Yi worry about looking at his empty store? ?”

"I think if Guiyi sees that his store is closed, he will probably settle accounts with us. Will the door be opened or not?"

The three of them were silent, looked at each other, and finally Shizi said, "Why don't you discuss it with Uncle Lingzi."

Brother Chen also said: "Yes, and it is Uncle Ling Zi who has an agreement with Gui Yi, not us."

After the matter was settled, Shizi said, "Come here, and help me find my copper coins. What about the life-saving things?"

"You still have the nerve to say it. You can also throw away life-saving things."

"I keep it in my wallet. I don't even know when I lost it."

……

That night, Persimmon slept with Xiaopang on his waterbed.Because he was looking for Yang copper coins in his room, not only the bed was dismantled, but even the wardrobe was moved out.Finally the copper coin was found, but not in his room, but next to the brake of the car.It is estimated that when he encountered a ghost covering his eyes that day, he was so anxious that he didn't notice that Yang Tongqian rolled out of his wallet and landed on the edge of the brake.

He always thought it was in the room, so he didn't find it in the car.

***

January in Southern City A is a month with a lot of sunshine.It was extremely cold in the morning at this time, because the frost happened at this time.

At the entrance of the alley, at the stall on the side of the road, Persimmon was warming his hands with a warm wonton bowl.I saw the silver-gray sports car stopped at the entrance of the alley.

He remembered that car, it was the sports car that was parked not far from their car when they went to the official financial store yesterday.Tencel took a special look at the sports car for a while.

Persimmon frowned. In City A, he knew all those second-generation officials and second-generation rich people, but he had heard of them to some extent.I went to those parties a few times when I was in college.He also knows that those second-generation officials and second-generation rich people play too much.Didn't get in touch with them too much.But people, he still knows.

Who bought this sports car new?Just thinking about this question in his heart, he was staring at the car closely, waiting for the person to get off, and if he knew him, he would strike up a conversation.

But the persimmon wontons were all eaten, and no one got off the car.Persimmon hesitated for a moment, but still walked over.Relying on the habit of being a policeman, he went up and knocked on other people's car windows, making gestures to ask people to lower the car windows.The glass of this car is covered with film, and the people in the car cannot be seen.

In the car, Hua Nian saw Qu Censhi outside the car.His heart skipped a beat, he didn't expect that Tiansi's boyfriend was here too.

But Hua Nian is not the kind of person who is timid. He lowered the car window and smiled at Qu Censhi.

Qu Censhi was in a trance for a moment, because the person in front of him...was so beautiful, and this kind of beauty was very familiar.He blurted out, "Are you... that... that, um, boy with the Facebook mask in the... 'now' shop?"
