Chapter 259
Stayed in Beijing for a few days.
These days, Shen Hao went back and forth between the Huo family and the Xinyue Hotel, asking them to sell some of the things he had.
Shen Hao took out a lot of things several times in a row, and there were still some things left from the previous ones, and he hadn't sold them all.
Now Shen Hao was not short of money, so he took out some of them casually.
Just for the sake of formality.
Shen Hao's Qinyuanzhai is now a well-known name in Panjiayuan, especially with Hu Bayi, a serious tomb-robbing lieutenant.
In the tomb-robbing business, as long as you have a name, you will know Shen Hao, Hu Bayi, Wang Pangzi, and Yang Xueli.
On this day, someone suddenly sent a message, saying that Xia Laoyi from Gangfang Hutong in Nanmen Ghost Market invited them to meet him when they were free.
So, Shen Hao called Hu Bayi, Wang Pangzi, and Yang Xueli over and told them about it.
The fat man said, "Master Shen, I seem to have heard of this Blind Old Yi. He is an old senior in this line of work."
"I have heard a lot of legends about him."
"He used to rob tombs, but later I heard that his eyesight was not good enough and he could not see clearly. Later he stopped working in the fields. I heard that he made a lot of jokes, so he was nicknamed 'Blind Old Yi'."
Hu Bayi also said, "I have heard that he seems to be from the same lineage as our tomb-raiders. He has a lot of connections with them. According to seniority, he is our uncle."
Shen Hao nodded and said, "Old Hu, you are right. This Blind Old Yi, whose original name is Zhao Baoyi, is the descendant of Yang Fang, the master of the magic whip in the Republic of China."
"And this master of the magic whip Yang Fang is the descendant of the tomb-raiders' golden abacus, the golden abacus we found in Longling."
"Ah? So that's the relationship. So they are really seniors from the same school." The fat man said in surprise.
Shen Hao continued, "In his early years, he relied on the inheritance of the Whip Yang Fang to do tomb robbing business, and he was also famous in this industry."
"Later, his eyesight was not good, and he could not go down to the tomb, so he switched to the business of dealing in antiques, but the business was getting worse and worse, and now he can only deal in tomb passage stones."
The fat man shook his head: "Ah~, that's really miserable, his eyesight is not good, this is really a fatal problem, I'm afraid he can only do some business that doesn't require eyesight."
Hu Bayi also echoed: "Who said it wasn't~"
Shen Hao continued, "Don't look at the blind old Yi now Although he is in such a poor state, he still has many good things in his hands. "
"He has a much more complete inheritance of the tomb-raiding lieutenant than you two."
"It's a pity that his eyes have problems and he can't use them anymore."
"However, his ability to appraise treasures is not low, but his luck is not good and is getting worse and worse."
"This time he asked us to go, maybe he wanted to pass on the things in his hands to you. After all, he is so old and I'm afraid he won't live for many years."
Yang Xueli also nodded and said, "In this case, let's go visit him and bring some gifts."
No one had any objection.
So, the next morning, Shen Hao took a few people to Nanmen Gangfang Hutong.
Blind Laoyi was smoking at home, and there was a young man beside him, and the two were chatting.
Blind Laoyi's eyesight was not good, and he only saw a few blurry figures coming over, so he stood up and asked, "Who is here?"
The young man next to him said, "Three men and one woman are here, I don't know them."
When Shen Hao and his friends came closer, Hu Bayi greeted them first, "Are you Blind Laoyi?"
"Hey, it's me, who are you?" Blind Laoyi asked, looking at the blurry figures in front of him.
Hu Bayi replied with a smile, "Speaking of which, I have to call you uncle. I am Hu Bayi, this is Master Shen Hao, and there are Fatty Wang and Yang Xueli."
Hu Ba introduced everyone around him.
"Oh, it's you, you're here so soon, I thought I had to wait a few days." Blind Laoyi realized that the message he had sent yesterday had come today.
That was really a coincidence, as they were all at home and didn't go out to work.
"Well, I asked you to come here because I really have something to ask you."
"Shengli, why don't you invite the guests to sit down and make some tea~" Blind Laoyi said to the young man beside him after receiving the gift.
The young man named Shengli immediately invited several people to sit down at the big table in the house, then ran into the kitchen, took out a thermos of hot water, a few teacups, and a bag of tea leaves, and made a cup of tea for everyone.
"Please wait for me for a while, I'll go in and get something."
"Okay, go ahead." Shen Hao and the others nodded.
Blind Laoyi got up, went into the room, and left after a whileHe came out with a big bundle in his hand and put it on the table.
"Uncle Master, what are you doing?" Hu Bayi asked.
"Ahem, I'm old and I don't have many years left. I should find a successor for these things."
After opening the bundle, everyone saw the contents clearly.
Upon closer inspection, they were all equipment for tomb raiding.
"Wow, so many tools!" The fat man exclaimed in surprise.
Yang Xueli was also surprised and asked, "Isn't this the Vajra Umbrella?"
Blind Laoyi stroked his beard and smiled, "You have good eyesight. Yes, these are the things left by my master and a brother. They are a complete set of tools for tomb robbing. In the early years, I also relied on them to travel between major ancient tombs."
"But later, I got an eye disease and couldn't see clearly, so these things were no longer useful."
"These things are useless to others. Only in the hands of the tomb-robbing lieutenant with a tomb-robbing talisman can they be considered as returning to their owners."
"That's just right. I am well-known in the capital."
"I heard that you are the real tomb-robbing lieutenant with a talisman, so I found you."
Blind Laoyi asked, "I don't know, can you bring the tomb-robbing talisman to me?"
Hu Bayi and the others looked at each other, and Shen Hao nodded.
So Hu Bayi took off the tomb-robbing talisman from his neck and handed it to Blind Laoyi for a look.
After receiving it, Blind Laoyi touched it carefully, held it in front of his nose to smell it, and finally licked it with his tongue.
Finally, he said: "Good. It is indeed a genuine gold-touching talisman. It is very old and cannot be fake."
"It seems that now, these things have finally returned to their owners!"
Although Blind Laoyi's eyesight is not good, he is good at identifying and selling antiques. His ability to appraise treasures is still not bad. He can tell the approximate age of the item by smelling it, touching it, and at most licking it. He can also tell whether it is passed down in the family or buried in the soil, and he almost never makes mistakes.
Otherwise, how can he put up a sign in the ghost market.
