Yin Yang Tomb Raider

Chapter 260 Dwarf, Phoenix-tailed Zun
I stopped the car in a panic and opened the door. My forehead was covered with sweat. I wiped it. I have been driving for so many years, and I have never been so distracted like today. Beware, with an uneasy heart, I walked to the front of the car, sniffed, huh?
That guy obviously hit the windshield and fell down. Such force must have hurt him. Why didn't there be any smell of blood? What's more, Qiao Mo shrank his shoulders: "Where is the person, why is he missing?"

Lao Jiu immediately lay down on the bottom of the car and looked around, making sure that there was no one under the car. Before Meng Luo came back to his senses, Lao Jiu stood up and patted the dust on his body: "Ge Laozi, it's really evil, don't we all look at it blindly?" ?”

"Impossible." I said decisively: "I saw that thing hit with my own eyes, and it was such a big shadow, how could it suddenly disappear so cleanly?"

I thought of the windshield, and I went over to check it. The glass was not damaged at all. It was evil. It was evil. I looked around, and there were many wandering spirits. They didn't stop and watch, but wandered aimlessly. On the street, Lao Jiu and I exchanged glances, and finally decided to move the car away and check it again. When I was driving, I always felt a faint worry, for fear that if the car moved, the tire would hit something. very slow, very slow...

The car stopped again, and Lao Jiu came over: "No."

"It's really evil, Lao Jiu." I said: "Have you seen it? How could such a big black shadow bounce off the car and disappear so cleanly? Meng Luo, Qiao Mo, you see No?"

The street lights on both sides of the road are dim, and this is not the main road. Qiao Mo said with certainty: "I saw it, it's a man, he's not very tall, and he bounced very fast. He should have run out, will he hit the sky? gone?"

Even if it hits and flies, the person will always fall, and the person who falls should always be there, how can it disappear in an instant?I hesitated, should I call the police?

At my insistence, the four of them re-examined the neighborhood, not even letting go of the trash cans on the side of the road. Lao Jiu kept laughing: "Ge, if a person can crash into a trash can, what a great skill, Lin Tianyi , you don't have the ability yet."

I said angrily: "Be careful sailing for thousands of years, you have seen the shadow."

No, still no, Lao Jiu stretched his waist: "Okay, no, let's get out, and send Qiao Mo home quickly, Qiao Mo, isn't it cold for you to dress so lightly?"

Qiao Mo pretended to be calm: "It's okay."

I looked around suspiciously, and only put this episode behind me, and sent Qiao Mo home first. Meng Luo didn't say anything all the way, until Qiao Mo got out of the car, and then said: "What a mess."

Lao Jiu chuckled: "Actually, Qiao Mo is not bad either. It's a couple. It's better than some people. In fact, it's as skinny as a sword, and it hurts a lot."

Nima, Lao Jiu has no sympathy at all. He just sprinkled salt on my wounds. I was silent all the way. The black shadow in the car didn't even bother to think about it. When I got home, I went into the room to sleep without even taking off my socks, always feeling tired and flustered.

Sleeping in the middle of the night, I suddenly heard a burst of laughter. I was startled. I wanted to open my eyes, but I felt a force controlling myself and prevented me from opening them. It was a child's laughter. I also heard "squeak" "Yeah", this sound is so familiar, isn't it the sound of a little wooden horse?There was a warm current flowing through my heart, the little wooden horse was rocking back and forth, and the child on the small wooden horse hugged the horse’s head and giggled, and I felt a lot of comfort in my heart. This time, what appeared in the dream was laughter, not a shrill one. Crying, I really wanted to see the child clearly, so I took a few steps closer in my dream, the little wooden horse stopped suddenly, and the child sitting on it turned around suddenly, I fixed my eyes, and the hairs all over my body stood on end Get up, that's me when I was a kid!
When I was young, I was very thin, with a face as big as a slap. My mother always said that a slap could cover my face. My eyes were round and round, my nose was small, and my mouth was thin. Grandma didn’t like my mouth. She said it was thin People with mouths are not lucky. Now, this little "I" is sitting on the wooden horse and looking at me, face to face, eye to eye. Suddenly, he grinned: "Lin Tianyi!"

I suddenly sat up from the bed, surrounded by bright lights, I did not turn off the lights, and the door was not closed, Lao Jiu was standing at the door in his pajamas, yawning and asking: "It's so late, what's your name?"

"Why didn't you go back?" I wiped my sweat and asked.

"Hua Ji is not coming, and the child is useless, so we don't need to make room." Lao Jiu said carelessly: "We will be the same as before."

I stepped on the wound again, I said indifferently: "Yes."

"What was your name just now?" Lao Jiu asked.

"It's okay, I dreamed of myself." I said, "It's really evil tonight. For a while, it was the matter of Meng Luo and Qiao Mo's concentric lock, and for a while, it was a black shadow who didn't know where to appear. Now I dreamed of my childhood. Myself, oh, one after another, Lao Jiu, I don't feel very good, I'm going to be in trouble recently."

"When have we been in trouble?" Lao Jiu said disapprovingly: "I'm asleep, what should I do tomorrow."

That's right, I was relieved immediately, fell back to sleep, and slept until the early morning of the next day, when there was a knock on the door, it was Xiao Li, the little guy, seeing that I was wearing pajamas, he said embarrassedly: "Boss, Please come here, someone brought a bottle, the price is quite high, quite confident, I am not sure, please hold your eye."

This person is full of confidence, and the things he brought may be of good quality. I immediately regained my spirits: "I'll go down right away, and ask that person to sit in the inner room first."

Xiao Li went down, I quickly washed and changed clothes, went downstairs, entered the inner room, and was surprised when I saw the person sitting there. It shows that this is an adult man. He should be a dwarf. Dwarfism, also known as dwarfism, refers to children who are 30% shorter than normal children. It can be caused by many reasons.

I saw that this person has a large head circumference, protruding forehead, protruding abdomen, lumbar lordosis, and protruding buttocks, which is consistent with the appearance of ordinary dwarfism patients. This kind of patients not only have normal intelligence, but sometimes they may even exceed normal people. Therefore, I Facing such a dwarf, there is no slightest contempt or resistance in my heart.

I stepped forward: "Hello, I am Lin Tianyi, the owner of this antique shop."

The dwarf immediately stood up, nodded and said: "Hello, please sit down and talk, you can see that I don't feel very good standing up."

His self-mockery made me feel good. I sat down and looked at the bottle already on the table. Xiao Li poured tea for this man. I didn't bother to say anything more, so I went straight to the topic: "Fengwei Zun."

The dwarf looked at me unexpectedly: "Good eyes."

I smiled politely, Fengweizun evolved from the flower goblets of the Yuan and Ming dynasties, and is a variant of the flower goblets.The overall shape of the Phoenix-tail Zun is a trumpet-shaped mouth, a straight neck, a round belly, a flat bottom and a two-story platform foot.The phoenix-tailed Zun in the Kangxi period has a graceful and luxurious overall style, delicate and rich, noble and elegant, and extraordinary bearing.

"Phoenix-tail Zun from the Kangxi period." I picked up the bottle and studied it and said, "The vessel is complete and has little damage, so it can definitely fetch a good price."

The blue and white color of this utensil is green and gorgeous. The technique of "splitting water" is used in the craftsmanship, and the distant mountains and near water are depicted with different shades of green materials, just like the effect of traditional Chinese ink painting.The vessel is beautiful in shape, with a large mouth slanted outward, a long neck gradually retracted, a bulging belly retracted downwards, the soles of the feet are outwardly tilted, the two-story platform circles the feet, and there are double blue and white circles on the white glaze bottom.The Fengwei Zun gets its name from its big mouth opening outwards in the shape of a phoenix tail. Its height is generally between 41 and 46 centimeters.

"Boss Bu has a good eye." The dwarf said, "You're happy, I'm not polite anymore, I'm short of money, 20."

I frowned slightly. Although it was a phoenix-tailed statue in the Kangxi period, there was an official kiln and a private kiln. This artifact is not an official kiln, but a private kiln. The price is 20, which is too high. I shook my head: "The psychological price that I can afford personally is [-], which will never be higher, let alone less."

The dwarf nodded happily: "It's a deal, but I have one request."

"Please speak," I said.

"I only accept cash." The dwarf said, "Is that okay?"

"There is no problem with this, just wait for a while, I need to go to the bank to withdraw money." I stood up immediately, and my eyes fell on this person. There was an obvious scratch, the right shoulder was slumped down, and it was not on the same level as the left shoulder, and he touched his right shoulder from time to time, looking uncomfortable. I was concerned: "Are you injured?"

"It's okay, I was hit by a car last night, it's okay, I was not careful." The dwarf said.

"When was last night?" My heart trembled, it was not such a coincidence, I carefully looked at the height and "size" of the dwarf, why was it so similar to the black shadow last night?

"I don't remember the time, anyway, it was in an alley at night." The dwarf always maintained a calm and gentlemanly demeanor: "What's wrong?"

"No, it's okay, I just think you should go to the hospital." I pretended to be calm and said, "It seems to be affected."

"It's okay, I'm born with hard bones." The dwarf said gratefully, "Thank you for your concern."

I just went out to pick up the money, because I was a VIP customer, so I didn’t need to line up, and I went back with a bag of money, Xiao Li cast a curious look at me, I nodded, which means it’s done, and when I walked into the inner room, the dwarf was still there. After drinking tea, seeing me coming in, he slowly stood up again: "You are back."

"Please order." I said with a smile: "Our store stipulates that returns and exchanges are not accepted when you go out."

"It's okay." The dwarf pressed his hand on the purse: "Enough."
