At about nine o'clock that night, Uncle Liao came back. He still had the same white hair, but he was obviously much thinner.
Baotou and Uncle Liao chatted about what they had experienced in the past two years, and they felt sorry for each other. I listened.
I asked him, now that Xiaomi has recovered from his illness, why is he still living here? Is it because he wants to wash his hands in a golden basin?
Uncle Liao poured a cup of tea on his head. He sighed and said, "Hey, Xian Sheng, after living here for more than two years, I gradually started to look away. You said that we have been in the industry for so many years, and in the end, we have nothing but leftovers to spend."
Money, what else?”
"Xian Sheng, sometimes I think about it, you said that I, Liao Sanding, have not had a son and a half in my life, is this God's punishment for me? After all, those high imitations I sold in previous years have harmed many people!
"
He took a sip of tea and remained silent.
Uncle Liao added, "I originally wanted to pass on my old-fashioned skills to Xiaomi, but she has never been very interested in this industry. After I figured it out, I let her go and she can do whatever she wants."
I felt extremely regretful while listening.
Liao Bo's antique counterfeiting skills originated from the Qing Palace Manufacturing Office. If Xiaomi does not inherit it, Liao Bo's craftsmanship will disappear a hundred years later!
I chose to wash my hands in a golden basin because I felt guilty. To be honest, I don’t approve of this approach.
The "National Treasure Gang" has always existed. If we don't make this partial wealth, then someone else will definitely make it!
Many people want to make a fortune by picking up leaks. If they buy fake goods, they can only say that they are asking for it. If you don't have diamonds, don't take the porcelain job. You can't blame others.
He smiled and said, "Brother Liao, if I have something that needs repairing in the future, can I still come to you for help?"
Uncle Liao nodded, "No problem. As long as you send the things over to Xian Sheng, I will help you fix them."
As we chatted, we came to one of the purposes of our trip, which was to help the snake girl see a doctor. Uncle Liao promised to take us to see the King of Gu tomorrow.
Early the next morning, a group of people arrived at Aizhai Mountain.
<
br> Uncle Liao said that King Gu is an old man in his sixties with a very weird temper! However, he has a good relationship with the other party and will try his best to intercede for us.
I saw a big word "囍" posted on the door of the stilted building, which was a little yellowed by the wind and sun, so I curiously asked, "Uncle Liao, why is there a happy event in King Gu's family?"
Uncle Liao shook his head and said, "A year ago, King Gu married a new house. This was already the fifth house he married. There were rumors in the village that because he had angered the first four, he stuffed them into a jar and fed them to scorpions in anger.
But those are all rumors after all. Some people say that they all died of illness. The fifth wife he married was a cripple. I heard that he bought it with money. I have seen it twice. She is not very old. Hey, now this
The way of the world."
I felt frightened when I heard this.
If nothing else, feeding your wife to scorpions just because you are angry? This is fucking murder!
"No! I won't go in!
"There are scary snakes there! I don't want to go in there!"
The snake girl looked at the stilted building in front of her. She suddenly showed fear in her eyes and shouted loudly that there were very scary snakes in Gu Wang's house! She couldn't go there!
I comforted you softly, "Don't be afraid. Everything is to cure your illness. With me here, there is nothing to be afraid of. I will protect you."
For some reason, the snake girl was trembling all over. Her voice trembled as she said, "Brother Xiang Xiang, I saw snake eyes! It's a very scary snake! I'm afraid of it!"
I could only comfort myself by saying, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, there are no snakes."
At this time, Xiaomi frowned and asked, "Grandpa Gu King has a very powerful Yin Snake Gu in his house. Is that the one you are talking about?"
The snake girl held my hand tightly, her face was pale and she refused to speak.
Uncle Liao and Xiaomi knocked on the door. We were all standing outside. No
Dare to step forward rashly.
Unexpectedly, when they reached the door, the snake girl suddenly turned around and ran away!
Brother Yu was so close that he caught her in two steps.
The snake girl struggled like crazy and shouted, "Let me go! I won't treat the disease anymore! Let me go! I want to go home!"
At this moment, there was just a "squeak", and the wooden door of the Diaojiaolou slowly opened to both sides, and the so-called "King of Gu" came out.
Is this the sixty-year-old that Uncle Liao mentioned?
I looked at this man.
This man is slightly shorter than Brother Yu, and about the same height as me. He has straight facial features, calm eyes, a full head of black hair, and not a single wrinkle on his face. Even if he says he is in his thirties or forties, some people will believe him!
And when he spoke, it was in standard Mandarin.
"Who are you? What are you doing here?"
Xiaomi quickly said, "Grandpa Gu King! They are all my good friends! I brought them here because I want you to help treat a disease!"
This man seemed to like Xiaomi very much. His eyes were calm, he touched Xiaomi's head, and said with a smile, "Good boy, I usually don't see outsiders, but since I am your good friend, I will make an exception today."
"Thank you, Grandpa Gu King!"
Xiaomi turned around and said, "Sister Snake Girl, come here quickly! Grandpa is very nice, don't be afraid, let him take a look for you!"
The snake girl struggled wildly and said she didn't want to get close to this person. There was really no other way, so Brother Yu had to forcefully carry the snake girl over.
The man said in a calm voice, "Child, don't be afraid, just raise your head."
The snake girl slowly raised her head.
When he saw the snake girl's brown eyes, the man immediately frowned.
I quickly told him that the snake girl had liverworm disease and asked if there was any way to treat it.
He said, "Hepatitis? I can cure it."
r>
Then he changed his tone, looked at the snake girl and said, "It will only take a few months. This baby girl must stay with me for treatment."
The snake girl immediately grabbed my hand and said with a cry in her voice, "Brother Xiang! I don't want to stay here! I don't want to stay here alone! Don't leave me here, okay!"
The snake girl was so abnormal that I became suspicious, so I pulled her aside and whispered, "What's going on? What's wrong with this man? Are you so afraid of him?"
The snake woman's voice trembled: "Brother Xiang Xiang, this person is not a human, he may be a snake, a very cold snake that I have never seen before."
I am speechless.
Putting aside the name Gu King, this man is obviously a big man, how can he insist that a human being is a snake? Could it be that the snake has been cultivated into a spirit and transformed into a human being? Are you kidding!
Then I heard King Gu say, "Stop standing outside, come inside and sit down."
As soon as I entered the stilted building, I immediately felt a chill in the room. It wasn't cold like winter, but just cold, the kind that gave me goosebumps.
Xiaomi seemed to be used to the environment here. She said coquettishly, "Grandpa Gu Wang, you must help my friend! Otherwise, I will not send you dumplings in the future!"
"Haha, good boy, are you threatening me?"
Xiaomi smiled and said, "No one dares to threaten you!"
King Gu grinned. He suddenly raised his head and shouted to the second floor, "Mother, there are guests at home. Hurry up and boil a pot of tea and come down to entertain the guests for me."
A few minutes later, I heard footsteps on the stairs and looked back.
I saw a thin woman with a sallow complexion holding a teapot in her hand and limping downstairs.
When I saw her face clearly, my mouth slowly opened wide
She also noticed me, and suddenly the teapot she was holding made a clang and fell to the ground.
