A treasure-appraisal maniac

Leaning against his mother's body in the study room, feeling her familiar yet unforgettable scent, Lu Fei felt an unprecedented sense of intimacy.

"Mom, when did you start installing cameras on the trees in front of our door to monitor us?" Lu Fei asked.

"Xiao Fei, you have to understand that mom is not spying. Mom just wants to watch you grow."

"Since you were eleven years old, your mother has sent people to install cameras."

"After that, it needs to be replaced every month."

Lu Fei shook his head regretfully.

In the past ten years, the camera has been replaced countless times, and I didn't even notice it. I was really careless.

"But why don't you come back to see us?"

"Also, why don't you allow Jin'er to come to China?"

"It's been seventeen years, don't you miss us?" Lu Fei asked.

"Yes, of course I do."

"Mom is thinking of you all the time."

"My mother loved Lao Lu deeply, and she was heartbroken when she saw him marry Zheng Wenjuan."

"My mother was even more heartbroken when she saw something happened to Lao Lu."

"But there's nothing mom can do!"

"Since the incident in the island country, your grandpa has been taking medicine every month to suppress the toxins in his body."

"And became extremely suspicious."

"Mom, as the only direct heir of the Xiao family, your grandfather will not allow me to go back to the past."

"If I go back to China to see you, your grandpa might even get rid of you so that I can stop thinking about it."

"For your safety, even if mom misses you so much, she can only compromise."

"Jin'er is not allowed to enter China. This is also your grandfather's request."

"Mom watches you grow and succeed, and she is happy for you from the bottom of her heart."

"Mom also wants to stand in front of you and tell you loudly that you are her pride."

"But mom can't, there's really nothing I can do."

"You would never imagine how powerful and capable your grandpa is."

"In order to protect

To protect you, this is all mom can do! "

"Then how can you meet me now?" Lu Fei asked.

At this point, my mother bit her lips tightly, and her eyes burst out with murderous intent.

"Because your grandpa is dead."

"He's finally dead."

"Now, mother is the head of the Xiao family."

"Everything in the Xiao family must obey mother's orders."

"Mom has no worries now, so she can't wait to come to China to see you before the period of mourning for your grandpa is over."

After pouring a cup of tea for his mother, Lu Fei continued to ask.

"But why didn't you meet me at Lao Lu Cemetery before?"

"Why did you have to show up after seeing me deal with Wade?"

"Xiao Fei, today, you are no longer an ordinary person."

"In China, you are a hot public figure, and countless pairs of eyes are looking at you."

"The Xiao family has a special background. Mom doesn't want to cause you any trouble before it's dealt with."

"But mother didn't expect that you would give the Seven-Star Knife to Wade."

"I didn't even expect that you still have a seven-star sword in your hand."

"You also know how important the Seven-Star Sword is. Mom was worried that you would be seduced by the Robert family, so she handed the other sword to them."

"So mom has no choice but to meet you in advance."

"That's it?" Lu Fei asked.

"That's it. You are your mother's son. How could your mother lie to you?"

"It's you, you know the Seven Star Sword is so important, why did you trade it to Wade?"

"Just to force mom to come out to meet you?" Xiao Tingfang asked.

Lu Fei smiled and said.

"Not entirely."

"What

mean? "

"The seven-star knife handed to Wade has lost its meaning."

"By trading with him, I will not only get a huge treasure, but I will also let you come out to meet me."

"This business is very cost-effective."

"Xiao Fei, you have confused mom."

"Is the knife given to Wade a fake?"

"of course not."

Lu Fei said as he came to the desk, opened the drawer and took out a brocade box and handed it to his mother.

"Open it and take a look."

Xiao Tingfang opened the brocade box, and inside were two pieces of gold foil the size of a cigarette box.

The gold foil is engraved with the pattern of undulating mountains.

The patterns on the two gold foils had no connection, and Xiao Tingfang really couldn't understand them.

"What's this?"

"This is the secret in the Seven-Star Sword, the treasure map of the Western Expedition treasure."

boom--

When Xiao Tingfang heard this, her eyes widened in horror.

Trembling, he picked up the gold foil and looked at it carefully, his face full of disbelief.

"Son, is this true?"

"How did you find it?"

"These two gold foil maps are hidden in the scabbard of the seven-star sword I gave to Wade and me."

Lu Fei said, taking out his seven-star knife.

Pulling out a gem from the scabbard, a small gap appeared in the inlay of the scabbard.

Lu Fei picked up the gold foil, folded it twice, and stuffed it into the gap bit by bit.

Then the removed gemstone was reset, and no flaw could be seen on the surface.

Seeing this scene, my mother was completely shocked.

Then, Xiao Tingfang frowned again.

"wrong!"

"We have disintegrated the entire body of the Seven Star Sword countless times."

"Why didn't our knife find the gold foil map?"

"mom!"

\u003e

"The two maps are hidden in different locations."

"So I judge that the methods of hiding the maps of these five knives must be different."

"I also researched for a long time before I found it."

"Since it has lost its function, what does it matter if it is traded to Wade?"

Xiao Tingfang took Lu Fei's hand and asked excitedly.

"Son, if I give you my mother's seven-star sword, can you find the hiding place of the map?"

Lu Fei shook his head slightly and said.

"I can't guarantee this."

"However, every disguise must have flaws."

"If I study it for a few days, I might be able to find it out."

"That's great, son, you're great."

"In this way, when Xinyi's injury stabilizes, you can go back with your mother immediately."

"If we could find the map in our house, we would have three of the five maps."

"Perhaps during my mother's lifetime, the Xiao family's long-cherished wish can be fulfilled."

"Mom, don't get excited yet."

"Even if you find it, there will only be three."

"If you look at these two maps, there is no hint at all."

"I estimate that if you want to find the treasure, you must collect all five maps."

"Otherwise, Queen Naimazhen wouldn't have taken such pains to design it like this."

"You have a point."

"By the way, you have been to Paradise Island before to repair a knife for the Robert family. Is that a seven-star knife?"

Lu Fei nodded.

"That's right, it's the Seven-Star Sword."

"It's a pity that the time was too short and I couldn't find any flaws."

"It doesn't matter, there will always be a way."

"By the way, mom knows that you got the knife you traded with Wade from a Malaysian auction house."

"Can you tell me where your knife came from?"
