Watching the two Tibetan mastiffs, which were almost as tall as his counter, following the generous young man upstairs, the middle-aged boss, who was equally nervous, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Good boy, I don't know where this rich man bought this dog. It looks even fiercer than lions and tigers. I have to be careful not to get scratched by them. But, this young rich man is really rich."
Whispering in a low voice, the middle-aged boss once again took out the banknotes given by Liu Dong and counted them again with a philistine smile.
The conditions of a hotel located near a tourist attraction on the grassland are naturally not very good. Even if Liu Dong asked for the best room here, the conditions are not the same as those in the urban village of Quancheng, which are specially rented to migrant workers and those who have just arrived.
The rooms for college students with no money after graduation are not much better.
Except for a bed, a bedside table, a table, two chairs, and an outdated black and white TV, Liu Dong saw no other furniture at all.
Fortunately, the cleaning was relatively clean, otherwise there would be no room for people to live here, but Liu Dong had no intention of resting here.
"This is for you. I'll bring up the beef I want later."
After receiving the two hundred yuan tip from Liu Dong, Ah Cai left with a face filled with surprise and gratitude.
"boom
Liu Dong opened the window and looked at the red sandstone hill not far away, about 40 meters high and 300 meters wide, like a platform, rising abruptly on the flat grassland, with a trace of desire in his eyes.
"Are you really here?"
Whispering, Liu Dong released the relic source light, and everything within a radius of 26 kilometers appeared in Liu Dong's mind like a three-dimensional image.
As time went on, a look of disappointment appeared on Liu Dong's face.
"well"
He sighed in defeat, although he had never thought that he would be able to find his target at the Alzhai Grottoes, the first stop on this treasure hunt. But even so, he still had a little desire in his heart. Now his desire has failed.
, Liu Dong naturally felt secretly disappointed.
"Dong dong"
"Come in"
He was struggling to carry the enamel basin containing the beef. The young boy Ah Cai just pushed the door in and panted: "Here are the twenty pounds of beef you asked for."
"I know. Just put it there."
"Oh well"
After nodding, Ah Cai quickly placed the beef on the open space in the center of the room.
"you can go now"
"Yes Yes"
After nodding quickly, Ah Cai retreated towards the door, and just as he turned around to go out, he happened to encounter the hungry lion head and tiger head, and at the same time opened his big mouth and bit the beef in the basin.
The snow-white and sharp teeth are like razors, easily tearing off a large piece of beef.
White teeth mixed with red pieces of meat, coupled with some scary chewing and swallowing sounds, made Ah Cai subconsciously shudder. He quickly closed the door in shock and left in a panic and haste.
After noticing the changes behind him, Liu Dong smiled lightly and said nothing.
After waving his hand and taking out two large fresh peaches and a bag of nuts from the Mustard Seed Space, Liu Dong tossed them away.
Wukong, who was originally standing on his left shoulder, jumped up and jumped up high. He grabbed the peach with both hands. He bit the nut in his mouth and stood on the table with his hind limbs upright.
"After dinner, you three stay in the hotel while I go out by myself."
"Woof woof, squeak"
"No, no one can go out without discussion." Liu Dong shook his head firmly.
Because of spending time together day and night, he was able to understand what his three pets wanted to express from their voices and movements.
"ring bell"
"Liu Dong, we have settled in, where are you?" After Liu Dong answered the phone, Wang Hua's voice came out from inside as expected.
"I'd better go find you"
"Okay. I'm here
After memorizing the place name, Liu Dong nodded. "See you in ten minutes."
After hanging up the phone, Liu Dong asked again. "You three stay in the room honestly. We will leave soon. Don't cause trouble for me, or else you won't have anything to eat this month."
Of course, what Liu Dong eats in his mouth is not meat, but the elixir given to them every month.
"Woof woof, squeak"
After the lion head and tiger head roared at Liu Dong, they jumped up. After finishing their lunch, they lay down on the bed, closed their eyes and fell asleep. As for Wukong, he gnawed the peach Liu Dong gave him and sat on the table.
He waved his hand.
The three guys had been raised spiritually by Liu Dong a long time ago, so naturally they would not easily give up the elixir that was of great benefit to them.
Liu Dong, who had expected this for a long time, smiled, opened the door and walked out.
After going downstairs and asking the boss not to go to his room casually, Liu Dong quickly found the small restaurant called Hanba Taste that Wang Hua had mentioned.
"Xiaodong, here"
Looking at Wang Hua waving, Liu Dong strode over, sat down opposite him, and asked with a smile: "Where is your American girlfriend? Why haven't I seen you with me?"
"Oh, Lisa has some motion sickness. She is resting in the hotel now. Let's not talk about her for now. Take a look at the dishes I ordered. If they are not enough, you can ask for some for yourself."
"Fried peanuts, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, stir-fried meat with cucumbers, spicy chicken, beef cut with a large plate of knife. Haha, they are all hard vegetables," Liu Dong looked at them and said with a smile.
It was a very ordinary dish, but it gave him a strong sense of familiarity.
"There are still two or two pot heads. We drank a lot when we were in school." As he said this, Wang Hua unscrewed the bottle cap and filled Liu Dong's wine glass.
"I also remember that when we were in school, we were often scolded by Lao Wang for drinking."
A cup of Erguotou evokes Liu Dong’s beautiful and unforgettable memories of his high school days.
"Why do you still remember Lao Wang? He gave you a lot of demerits back then," Wang Hua said with a smile.
When Liu Dong was in school, he often got into fights because of his good martial arts. He was taught a lesson by the dean of the school at that time, Lao Wang, as the two said. It was a common occurrence. Every now and then, he would be picked up and scolded.
.
"Why don't you remember? I visited him in the past two years, but he just retired the year before last." Liu Dong said with some nostalgia and regret.
Everyone is growing up slowly, but when young people grow up, it is called growing up, while when middle-aged people grow up, it is called getting older. When Liu Dong grew up from a young boy to a young man, his teachers and some close friends
My parents have all grown old.
As if sensing the emotional changes in Liu Dong's heart, Wang Hua silently picked up the wine glass, touched it with Liu Dong, and drank it in one gulp.
"Actually, it's not just Lao Wang who has changed over the years. The brothers we share the same bed with are busy with their own affairs and we don't see each other even once in a year or two."
After nodding, Liu Dong glanced at the old man Xue, "Will you stay in the United States for development after graduation?"
"No, I plan to work in the United States for a few years after graduation, accumulate some experience, and then return to China to start a business.
"Wang Hua shook his head.
"What about your girlfriend? She's a Westerner. Can she come back with you?"
"If she marries me, she will be the daughter-in-law of our Chinese people, and she will naturally come back with me."
After nodding, Liu Dong did not delve into the private life of his old classmates. After all, it was their own business.
"By the way, stop talking about me and talk about you. How are you doing lately?"
"How can we remain the same as before?" Liu Dong said.
"Don't lie to me. I'm driving a luxury car and it's still the same."
"Haha, I just made a little money."
"You always say that. By the way, why are you coming to Aerzhai Grottoes this time?" Wang Hua continued to ask.
“What else can I do, just travel when I’m bored?”
The two of them ate and chatted, and the afternoon soon came.
Wang Hua originally invited him to visit the Aerzhai Grottoes together, but Liu Dong didn't want to be someone else's light bulb, so he politely declined.
However, after taking some time, Liu Dong still went around the grotto.
Although Genghis Khan's treasures are not here, the many murals in the grottoes are rare works of art, and Liu Dong is very interested in them.
Moreover, many Tibetan Buddhist murals in the grottoes contain strong Buddha light, which is very suitable for the relics to be absorbed in the mustard space.
"Treasure, treasure, where are you?"
Looking at the exquisite but not large funeral pictures of Genghis Khan on the wall, Liu Dong thought to himself.
According to records in the secret history of Mongolia, after the death of Mongolian princes and nobles, they were often buried secretly. The bodies were packed into hollowed-out rough wood and buried deep underground, and then the child camels were brutally killed in front of the mother camel, and then released
Hundreds of horses would trample the ground with the bloodstains of the camels, and then send troops to guard it until green grass grew and the ground was no longer strange, and then they withdrew the troops, and those who knew about it would be killed.
According to historical records, Genghis Khan died in the summer of 227 when he came to Liupan Mountain to escape the heat. According to the past customs of the Mongolian people, a person should be disposed of within three days after death, in order to prevent the body from rotting and the soul not going to heaven. Therefore, the Mausoleum of Genghis Khan
The most likely location should be China, because under the road conditions in ancient times and it was summer, it was impossible to transport the coffin back to the depths of the grassland for burial within three days.
However, Liu Dong was not completely sure.
In the past few years, he has seen too many things that are incredible to ordinary people. Genghis Khan conquered more than 40 countries in East Asia, Central Asia, and West Asia, and obtained countless rare treasures. Who knows if Liu Dong has never
A treasure that cannot be guessed even after seeing it, can guarantee that his body will not rot for a long time.
Among other things, the luminous pearl in the mouth of the Empress Dowager Cixi ensured that her body would not rot for decades. This is a very vivid example.
To be continued.
