The next morning. Aaron called and said: "Mr. Song, Shi Yun and I rushed to the village where the old house was located last night and met the current owner of the house. In order to prevent accidents, Shi Yun said to him , he wanted to buy back the old house and prepare it as a place for leisure vacation. But the other party said that the value of the old house has increased now, and he would not sell it without half a million, and he did not want to sell it. I think the other party It means that he wants to raise the price. This house is not worth so much money now. Shi Yun is very angry about this matter and does not want Tianyi Hall to buy this house at such a high price, so he is ready to negotiate with the other party on the price. "
Song Hao said: "Then increase the height for the other party. Don't be afraid of spending money. You must buy the house today. I understand the mood of you and Shi Yun, but this matter is very important. Don't waste time to avoid accidents."
Aaron responded: "Okay, I'll go there with Shi Yun later. In fact, Mr. Song can give us a few more days, and we can win two or three hundred thousand. We inquired yesterday about the current situation of this house. The owner lost money in business, so he also wanted to sell the house. It¡¯s just that we have been too proactive now, so he started to take advantage of the opportunity to raise the price."
"Haha!" Song Hao listened and said with a smile: "Thank you and Shi Yun for thinking about Tianyi Hall, but what you are doing now is not a business, but an important event, so don't care about the price. Let's go. If I went, I would give it to the other party if he asked for several million, so I couldn't bear to go. In this way, you and Shi Yun can talk to the landlord again and use your wisdom, but today we must There must be a result. Otherwise, if the other party hears any news, they will open their mouths and oppose us to our disadvantage."
"Don't worry, Mr. Song, I will definitely buy the house before tonight." Aaron said.
At noon, Aaron called again and said excitedly: "Mr. Song, the matter is done! After talking to Mr. Song on the phone in the morning, Shi Yun and I discussed it and felt that the landlord should not be too cheap, so we did not I went directly to him and found another old house in the village that was of some age, and I was willing to pay a high price for it. After haphazardly negotiating the price with the other party, I also took the initiative to pay a deposit of 10,000 yuan. Guess what, After the original landlord heard the news, he quickly found us and took the initiative to lower the price by 50,000 yuan. He also wanted nothing in the house and moved out with his family. Shi Yun then told him that he had bought another house. I also paid a deposit. The original landlord then took the initiative to reduce the price by 30,000 yuan, saying that his house was hundreds of years old and was of great cultural relic value. Shi Yun and I just laughed and pretended to check it out again. So we set a deal of 420,000 yuan with the other party. Shi Yun is currently signing the house sale contract with the homeowner in the house. We will go through the property rights procedures in a moment, and Mr. Song and Mr. Tang can come over tomorrow."
"Well done! You are very smart!" Song Hao praised.
"Hehe!" Aaron said with a smile: "This is the hard-to-get trick we learned from Mr. Song on March Street. It really works! It never works after repeated trials!"
Song Hao listened and said with a smile: "It's great to be able to apply what you have learned! You don't have to wait for tomorrow. Since the house has been bought, Mr. Tang and I will rush there later."
"That's fine!" Aaron responded: "Shi Yun and I will be waiting for Mr. Song and Mr. Tang to arrive in Dali City."
After talking to Aaron on the phone, Song Hao shook his head and said with a smile: "Along and Shi Yun are really two smart people. They have already bought the house." Fu told Tang Yu how the two people bought the house. .
Tang Yu listened and said with a smile: "The two of them are indeed capable. The Heavenly Medical Hall must reuse them in the future."
Tang Yu then asked Zhao Lida for a car, and took it with Song Hao toward Dali Prefecture.
It was almost evening when we arrived in Dali. Although more than half a month has passed since the March Street Gastrodia elata procurement war, and I returned here, it still seems like it happened yesterday, and the tense situation is especially vivid in my mind.
I contacted Aaron on the phone, and then an off-road vehicle drove up. After stopping, Aaron and Shi Yun jumped out of the car, looking happy.
Song Hao praised the two of them, and then Aaron drove towards the village in Cangshan Mountain, with Shi Yun's car following behind.
An ancient Bai village appears among the beautiful mountains and forests. The mountains are strange and the water is clear, just like a paradise in the world.
Two cars stopped in front of the gate of a simple and solemn house with blue bricks and green tiles. This is the former residence of Shi Yun.
Song Hao got out of the car and looked at the architecture of this old house. It was obviously different from other houses in the village. It was a house built in the style of the Central Plains hundreds of years ago.
Shi Yun came over and introduced: "This kind of old Han-style building built in this Bai village is very special and rare. I heard from the old people that it was a Han Chinese surnamed Li who was doing business hundreds of years ago. The people who built it here must have taken a fancy to the beautiful scenery of Cangshan Mountain.It is also said that the businessman named Li built it here to house a concubine. I don¡¯t know when a small number of Han people came to live in this village. Our Shi family also moved here when my father was young, for the convenience of collecting herbs in Cangshan Mountain. "
Aaron said: "Now it is fully equipped with furniture and household appliances, all left by the original owner. Shi Yun and I purchased some more food. We can live here in the future and slowly look for what we want." s things."
"Mr. Song, Mr. Tang, this old house now belongs to Tianyi Hall. Please come in." Shi Yun opened the door.
This is indeed an ancient building that is hundreds of years old. The original owner is also working hard to maintain its original style. The wooden doors and windows with pattern carvings and old walls and tiles make people feel a sense of simplicity. atmosphere of.
This courtyard is designed according to the front and rear houses. In the front is the main hall, which is spacious and furnished with ancient tables and chairs. The backyard is the inner house, with a total of twelve rooms, and there are wing rooms on both sides with a kitchen inside. The floors in the house and courtyard are all paved with square marble. Steady and solemn.
Song Hao looked at it before and after, and said: "This courtyard is located in Cangshan Scenic Area. It is not expensive for more than 400,000 yuan. Shi Yun, your family was sold for 50,000 yuan. It is really a loss."
Shi Yun smiled and said: "This time and that time, it could be sold for fifty thousand at that time, which is already a very high price. This village is a bit remote, and there are very few tourists coming for sightseeing."
Song Haodao: "No matter what, we have successfully entered now. I announce that starting today, the four of us will live here, and we will officially start working tomorrow to find the batch of scriptures hidden in this old house."
Dinner that day was prepared by Aaron and Shi Yun. Shi Yun also went to the acquaintances in the village to ask for some local dishes.
After dinner, the four of them chatted for a while and then went back to their rooms to rest.
Song Hao read Luo Beiming's diary again before lying on the bed in the room. At this time, his mood had calmed down. Close your eyes and think about how to start searching tomorrow. He knew that the batch of scriptures was hidden very secretly by Shi Tingchuan. Even though the owner changed, he still failed to discover that there was still a huge secret hidden in this old house.
Song Hao knew that he was close to the "Linglan Secret Code" because these strange books were hidden in a corner of this old house. It might even be buried beneath this house.
A strange feeling rippled through Song Hao's thoughts, and he vaguely saw the figures of the ancient sages
The Yellow Emperor was sitting in the Mingtang, and during the questions and answers with his ministers Qi Bo and others, the "Nei Jing" was completed!
Shennong tasted hundreds of herbs and encountered seventy poisons in one day
This is a great era, an era when saints come to the world! The ancient sages used their special wisdom to clarify the principles between heaven and man: the Tao of Yin and Yang and the principles of the Five Elements are the laws by which this world operates
Yin and Yang are the way of heaven and earth, the order of all things, the parents of change, the origin of life and death
The five elements are metal, wood, water, fire and earth. Everything must be kept away from here
But human beings are still standing on the desolate land, looking up at the vast universe, and constantly asking heaven why the world is like this and that. Little did they know that the wise men among humans had already made a seemingly simple but essential answer to all of this.
Early the next morning, Song Hao was awakened by a "ping ping ping ping ping" sound coming from outside. When they got up and put on their clothes and went out to take a look, it turned out that Aaron and Shi Yun had already impatiently picked up the prepared tools and started looking for suspicious places in the courtyard by knocking on them.
When Song Hao saw it, he couldn't help but shook his head and smiled: "Look for it, but don't damage the structure of the house. We will arrange for people to come here for vacation in the future! When they see that it is incomplete, I heard that it was caused by the two of you, so I will blame you."
Aaron responded: "Don't worry, Mr. Song, we will return to the way we were before."
Shi Yun said: "Mr. Song, this house is still the same as it was when our family moved away. It has not changed at all. If my father really hid those scriptures here, they should still be there."
Song Hao listened and nodded: "This is the best! Your father is a very cautious person, so he has never circulated a single volume of those scriptures. I can be sure that they are hidden in this courtyard. According to the information He said that there are hundreds of volumes in that batch of scriptures, which will take up a large area, and are not the kind of targets that are difficult to find."
Aaron said: "If one person hides something, it will be difficult for ten thousand people to find it. If you really can't find it, use a bulldozer to level the house and dig three feet into the ground. Once you find the scriptures, you can rebuild the house."
Song Hao shook his head and said: "Once the old things are destroyed,?No matter how much it is rebuilt, it will only retain its original shape. The primitive atmosphere and atmosphere will never be found again. So, it¡¯s better not to go to that point. "
Shi Yundao said: "Even if I want to, I can't do it now. I heard from the original owner that this old house has been designated as a protected ancient cultural relic building by the cultural relics department of Dali Prefecture. Although it is privately owned, there are living and The right to transfer is no longer the right to demolish and construct.¡±
"Oh! It doesn't matter. This place is not very big. If you search carefully, you should be able to find clues." Song Hao said.
"Breakfast is ready. Let's rest now. After breakfast we will search together." Tang Yu walked over and said with a smile.
The four people then came to the hall to have breakfast.
Song Hao said: "Last night I looked at the information about this old house and the batch of scriptures that were found. Shi Yun's father, Mr. Shi Tingchuan, found the scriptures in a secret cabinet on the south wall of this house. It's very interesting." It is possible that Mr. Shi hid the scriptures there again. Therefore, we first searched based on this clue, and the scope was narrowed accordingly."
"South wall!" Aaron asked: "You didn't say whether it was the south wall of the courtyard or which room?"
Song Haodao: "There is only the word 'Southern Wall' and nothing else."
Aaron said: "Then check all the south-facing walls carefully. With this clue, it will be much easier."
Tang Yu said: "You can't dig holes in all the south-facing walls. That will destroy the structure of the house on a large scale. I think you should use a ruler to measure it first. Think about it, if there are holes in ordinary walls, It is impossible to hide such a large number of scriptures. Only walls with abnormal width can be built with hidden walls such as secret cabinets, or even secret rooms. This reduces the scope a bit."
"Smart!" Song Hao praised. He thought of the secret room in the old house of the Song family in Penglai, Shandong, where the Tiansheng Acupuncture Bronze Figure was hidden. There should be some in this ancient house.
The four of them had breakfast happily. Shi Yun then found that kind of circle ruler, and under Tang Yu's command, he and Aaron began to measure the wall. Song Hao stood aside and observed.
After removing the wall of the front house, the four people came to the back house. After Song Hao entered two adjacent houses, he came out and stood in the yard and began to look at them.
Immediately, Song Hao felt something strange, and hurriedly called Tang Yu, Aaron, and Shi Yun who were busy there: "Come here and measure here first. I feel that the room should not be very narrow. There is something wrong with it."
After Aaron and Shi Yun measured the inside and outside of the house, Aaron said excitedly: "It's here. How come the wall between these two rooms is one meter thick! There must be space in it."
Shi Yun was surprised and said: "I have lived here for ten years, why didn't I notice it?" Then he found a hammer and knocked on the wall, and heard a hollow sound.
"It's empty!" Shi Yun said in surprise.
"Then just smash it open!" Aaron also said excitedly. He reached out and took the hammer from Shi Yun's hand and started to smash it against the wall.
Song Hao and Tang Yu looked at each other and smiled, each happy. They didn't expect to find the collection of books so smoothly.
Aaron was very strong, and with a few blows of the hammer, a hole was opened in the wall, revealing broken green bricks.
"It's really hollow!" Shi Yun said in surprise: "I'll go find a flashlight." Then he ran out.
Aaron used a hammer to smash a hole as big as a washbasin in the wall. It was dark inside and couldn't see clearly, so Aaron couldn't wait to put his arm in and start groping.
¡°There¡¯s nothing in there!¡± Aaron said in disappointment after groping for a while.
"No, it's probably because you opened it in the wrong position. A lot of things can be put into such a big wall, and those scriptures may not be able to fill it up." Song Hao comforted himself hurriedly. I was also worried that I had found the wrong place.
"Here comes the flashlight!" Shi Yun ran in holding a flashlight.
"Let me take a look." Song Hao took the flashlight and looked inside after Aaron retracted his arm.
"Sure enough, it's empty!" Song Hao's heart tightened and he hurriedly poked his head in. Using the light of the flashlight, he found that the wall was empty and there was nothing.
"How could this happen? We should hide here?" Song Hao was disappointed, took back his body and shook his head.
Shi Yun said: "I am thin, so I will go in and check if there are any other secret passages inside." After saying that, with the help of Aaron, Shi Yun got into the sandwich wall. Aaron handed the flashlight in casually.
Tang Yu comforted: "Judging from that room, this wall belongs to the south wall. Shi Tingchuan should have discovered the batch of scriptures from this wall. He may have thought that he could discover this place.Others may also find it here, so I changed the location when I stored the book again. Although it has not been found yet, the authenticity of this matter has once again been confirmed. Luo Beiming's diary is true. "
"Not bad!" Song Hao once again ignited hope and said: "Today's first search, we were able to find this dark wall. The results are already very good."
At this time, Shi Yun came out of the wall with a disgraced face, shook his head and said: "It's empty, there is nothing."
Aaron said in disappointment: "It's all such joy!"
Song Haodao: "This is just the beginning, and we can find the original place where those scriptures were hidden. Even if today's work is not in vain. It seems that our method is still very effective. Now we will measure all the walls. Including the courtyard walls. If those scriptures are hidden above the ground, they should be hidden in hidden compartments inside the walls."
As a result, at the end of the day, all possibilities of hidden scriptures in the walls were ruled out.
The next day, Aaron and Shi Yun moved the ladder and began to search for places where things might be hidden high up in the house. Unlike the houses in the north, this ancient house does not have a shed, so it is easy to find it. After working all morning, I still found nothing.
"Now there is only one possibility!" Song Hao said: "The batch of scriptures were buried underground. The search work on the ground ends here. Tang Yu and I will preset the suspicious locations in the afternoon, and then start the official work tomorrow. Start the underground excavation work. This work should still be carried out by the four of us. There is no need to call in manpower to help, so as not to delay the work of the office. Aaron, Shi Yun, you two will drive there after lunch After a trip to Dali City, purchasing some digging tools, and purchasing some food, we will prepare for a protracted war."
