Treasure Hunting Divine Eyes

Wang Kailai and his wife Bai Hui have already stayed to work. The host family is kind-hearted and has no airs. As long as they do their job well, the host family treats them like family members, and they eat together.

Bai Hui brought a pot of tea over, put it lightly on the coffee table and said, "Miss Qin, the nutritional tea is ready."

"Aunt Bai, let's add a big braised fish head for lunch today."

"Old Wang went to the vegetable market early in the morning to buy the freshest fat head fish. The braised fish head he made is also a must. The secret recipe was passed down from his grandparents."

"Uncle Wang's grandfather is already a chef?" Li Mo took a sip of black tea, feeling warm and comfortable.

"When I was alive, I worked in the warlord's mansion for several years. Later, the craftsmanship was passed on to my father-in-law, and then to Lao Wang. He learned other cuisines."

"I didn't expect it to be a family tradition. Is the old man in good health?"

"Lao Wang is the youngest at home. My father-in-law is already eighty-four years old. He was injured in an accident when he was a child. Now there are no major problems, but there are many minor problems. The doctor said it was the sequelae left by him when he was young. Because he is getting older, the main reason is maintainance."

Bai Hui was wiping the coffee table with a clean cloth.

"Mr. Li, you are knowledgeable and an expert in archaeology. I have a question for you."

"I'm not an expert in archaeology. Archeology is a very systematic, directional, and highly academic major. I can only say that I am new to archaeology, and I have some ability and experience in the identification of some antiques. But what do you want to ask, Aunt Bai? ?”

Bai Hui stopped her hands and said embarrassedly: "Mr. Li, do you believe that there are ghosts in the world?"

Li Mo was stunned for a moment, and asked curiously, "Why did you suddenly remember to ask this?"

"My father-in-law mentioned this to us several times many years ago. That is, Lao Wang's grandfather went to the mountain to hunt with a few men from the village one year. He didn't know what happened in the mountain. A total of seven people went into the mountain, but Only five people came back. But two of those five people fell into a coma, and the other three went crazy, shouting 'there is a ghost'."

"At that time, the medical conditions were limited, and the five people passed away after only a little more than a day. That incident caused panic, and even the local government sent people into the mountain to investigate, but in the end, the two missing villagers were not found, nor were they found. Find the reason why everyone went crazy and died. Mr. Li, do you think they really saw a ghost?"

Li Mo thought for a while and shook his head, and said: "From the perspective of time, at that time, because the older generation had no culture, their worldview must be different from ours. To put it bluntly, people at that time were still very superstitious in their thinking. After they went into the mountain, they either fell into a coma or went crazy, and I guess they might have inhaled some kind of poisonous gas in the mountain, which made them either coma after being poisoned, or their brain nerves were affected to produce hallucinations."

"As for the fact that they kept shouting 'there is a ghost', maybe what they saw was actually the bones of dead people."

"Poisoned?"

Bai Hui stopped cleaning the table, then nodded and said, "I heard from Mr. Li that it might be due to poisoning. Didn't it take several days to deal with the poisonous miasma before the treasure in Changbai Mountains. At that time , In a remote mountain village where there is such knowledge and medical conditions, people die without knowing why. However, the mountain over there is not high in altitude, and we have never heard of miasma appearing in the mountain.”

Li Mo straightened up at this moment, looked at her solemnly and asked, "Are you sure there has never been miasma in the mountains?"

"I'm sure, I've lived there for decades, and I've never heard of miasma in the mountains."

Qin Sirui stood up from the yoga mat, wiped the sweat off his face with a towel, saw Li Mo's pensive expression, and asked softly, "Xiao Mo, what did you think of?"

"Because I have experienced many things, I can think of some connections. For example, the treasures of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, such as the treasures of the Changbai Mountains, there are many bones in those treasure caves, which have produced highly poisonous gas during hundreds of years of decay. If you inhale it, you will definitely be poisoned. Therefore, before entering the cave to pick up treasures, professional troops will clean it up first, and we will not enter until the air is completely free."

Li Mo walked to the floor-to-ceiling windows, looked at the snow outside, and seemed to think of many possibilities.

"You said, did Uncle Wang's grandpa and the others inadvertently break into a hidden cave. There were many corpses in that cave, and a very powerful poisonous gas was accumulated, so two people were poisoned and died on the spot. After the remaining five returned to the village, two fell into a coma due to poisoning, three experienced hallucinations due to poisoning, and finally all died of poisoning."

Qin Sirui twitched his eyebrows, hesitantly said: "This possibility is very high."

Bai Hui on the side also agreed with this guess.

"It's just chatting. It's been so long, who knows what happened that year. But after the spring of next year, if I have time, I would like to go there for a while, maybe I have some amazing discoveries."

There is a saying in the countryside that auspicious snow heralds a good year, but for cities, too much snow will cause great trouble to daily life.

It snowed intermittently for more than ten days.

On this day, Li Mo drove to a natural hot spring resort in the suburbs. Niu Sanpang and others had already arrived. When they saw Li Mo's car appearing, they ran over.

"You don't need to be greeted like this, do you?"

"We mainly want to get the gift you gave as soon as possible, brother, where is the finger wrench that we chose?" Niu Sanpang looked into his car, looking for the antique finger wrench that he was thinking of. Since the last time he followed Li Mo to participate in the negotiation with the delegation of the island country, he has been well-known in the top circles of Kyoto, and no matter where he goes, he will be looked at highly by others. Since then, he felt more and more that Li Mo's outfit that day was simply too stylish, too temperamental, and too tasteful. But there are some good things that you can't buy with money alone, so they are looking forward to what kind of antique Li Mo gave them.

Sun Cheng'an and Zeng Yi didn't dare to talk to Li Mo in such a casual tone, and their eyes were full of expectation, but they stood aside respectfully at this moment.

"Can I miss you?" Li Mo took out three well-packed wooden boxes from the floor mat of the passenger seat, and handed them to the three of them one by one with a smile, "Open it and have a look, I hope you are satisfied."

Niu Sanpang quickly opened the wooden box, and took out a gold-inlaid jadeite wrench from the inside. The inlaid gold formed a special pattern, full of exotic customs, and several strange symbols were engraved on the jade wrench.

"Brother, which country's antique is this?"

"Antiques from the Angkor Dynasty, that is, the most glorious ancient dynasty in Cambodia six hundred years ago, the eyes of the few foreign experts were red when they saw these fingers."

"Brother, what a good buddy, thank you." Niu Sanpang put the gold-encrusted emerald ring finger on his left thumb, and immediately felt that his temperament had improved several levels in a straight line.

"Thank you, Mr. Li."

Sun Cheng'an and Zeng Yi were also extremely excited. This jadeite finger was like a keepsake given to them by Li Mo. As long as they wore it to go out, whoever dared to act presumptuously on them would be hitting Li Mo. face?

"Take it away, there is no second one if you lose it."

"Brother, let's go, let's go to the hot springs, it's really cool to be in the hot springs in this damn day."
