The Complete Works of the Tomb, Part 1 Yunnan Yin Sha 181
Fortunately, no one in the village had gotten up yet, so we hurried to the side of the village road to pull the car. I, Fatty, and Liu Ming were in such a mess that many cars were unwilling to pull us. In the end, Fatty risked his life and stood on the road.
Without moving in the middle, we finally stopped a large truck.
We lied that we were tourists and got lost in the mountains, and wanted him to take us back to the city. The truck driver was reluctant at first, but in the end, under the inducement of the fat man and the coercion of Liu Ming, the driver finally took us back to the hotel in the county town.
As soon as we arrived at the hotel, we rushed into the room in embarrassment under the astonished eyes of everyone, hurriedly took a shower, packed our things, and prepared to go back to Luoyang. Using the free time in between, I took out the purple jade box from the bag.
The box is now translucent red, and I can't even identify the material. The four corners of the box are inlaid with gold to prevent damage, and the same pattern is carved on the gold...eyes!
These are nothing. The strangest thing is that there is no movement inside the box, which is completely different from when it was in the tomb. No matter how we shake the box, there is no reaction.
"This... this box can't be opened?" The fat man who finally finished his bath stood nearby and asked as he watched Liu Ming and I studying the box.
"It can be opened, but there are no protection measures here. We have to return to Luoyang before we can open it." I said to the fat man.
"Is everything packed?" I asked the fat man.
"That's almost it..." Fatty said, and as he said that, he turned his attention to Liu Ming.
Liu Ming sat alone next to me in a daze. Since he had not slept for almost two days, we were all exhausted. In addition to the feeling of exhaustion on Liu Ming's face, there was more of a kind of sadness. I knew he was thinking about it.
Cheng Ji’s matter...
I asked carefully: "Liu Ming, are you okay? Shall we rest for two days before leaving?"
"It's okay, let's just..." Liu Ming said and rubbed his eyes vigorously with both hands.
After being separated from his father for many years, he finally reunited. Before he could fully appreciate the relationship between father and son, his father... I know that for Liu Ming, any words of comfort are pale.
I stepped forward and patted Liu Ming on the shoulder, stuffed the box into my bag, and said, "In that case, let's get out of here by car quickly, and we'll rest in the car."
Liu Ming nodded. The fat man stood aside and sighed silently.
After a bumpy day and a half on the train, we finally arrived in Luoyang. As soon as we got off the train, we took a taxi and rushed to Professor Wang's house. Now we only have to go find Professor Wang.
After a while, we arrived at the door of Professor Wang's house. Unexpectedly, we saw Professor Wang's assistant at the door.
"I...let's find Professor Wang..." the fat man said.
At this moment, I suddenly saw that the assistant had a black gauze on his arm! I was shocked!
"Professor Wang...has left. He is now in the school's mourning hall. I am here just to wait for you and tell you the news." As soon as he finished speaking, my eyes went dark and I almost fell!
