Geng Chaozhong ignored him and dragged him to the door of Boya Zhai outside Liulichang.
Boss Qiu is dead, Boya Zhai has become a dead place, and the guys have already dispersed. It is unlikely that anyone will come here in a short time. Geng Chaozhong kicked open the door and walked into the inner hall of Boya Zhai.
In the dark night sky, lightning flashed from time to time. Geng Chaozhong placed the little eunuch on the ground and looked at his injuries.
The shot just now penetrated the quilt, first penetrated the little eunuch's arm, and then entered his chest.
Although he had gone through two layers of obstruction, the power of the bullet was still huge. At this time, the little eunuch was already dying, and Geng Chaozhong knew that he was hopeless.
At least, under current medical conditions, there is no hope.
"Help......."
The little eunuch said these two words again. It was just a flashback. Geng Chaozhong was a little nervous. He had to ask for clues as quickly as possible.
"I can save you, but you have to tell me where the old guy put the cultural relics." Geng Chaozhong spoke quickly, staring closely into the little eunuch's eyes.
This is a young man who is only twenty years old, maybe less than twenty years old. His face is very pale, and his eyes have a unique weakness.
"I don't know..." The little eunuch's lips were trembling slightly.
"Wherever Old Man Jin often goes, there must be a place like this." Geng Chaozhong changed his questioning method.
"Am I going to die?" The little eunuch didn't seem to hear Geng Chaozhong's words at all.
"No," Geng Chaozhong looked at the little eunuch firmly, "As long as you tell me, you will definitely not die."
There was a strange look in the little eunuch's eyes, and he seemed to have regained some vitality. He stared at Geng Chaozhong, and made a very weak voice:
"Defuyuan, ancient... ancient..."
The little eunuch tilted his neck and breathed out.
"In your next life, give birth to a good child!"
Geng Chaozhong reached out his hand and gently brushed the little eunuch's eyes.
Under the cavity effect, if you are hit by a gun, important parts will be killed immediately, and non-important parts will be disabled immediately. Under normal circumstances, there will never be time left to say lines, ask for water, take care of your children, pay party dues...
.
The fact that the little eunuch can say these words is already a miracle of will created by the endangered instinct!
Telford Yuan Antique Shop!
There is indeed an antique shop called Defuyuan on Liulichang Street. When I visited Liulichang, I had a vague impression of it.
Geng Chaozhong stood up, quickly walked out of the gate of Bona Zhai, and began to look for the antique shop named Defuyuan along Liulichang Street.
The rain is getting heavier and heavier, and the lights have been lit in the Peace Arch opposite. Some eunuchs should have noticed something strange, but there is nothing too abnormal. It seems that the Japanese have not set up a secret sentry here, or are in the mission.
After completion, the hidden sentry posted here has been removed.
Geng Chaozhong's whole body was already soaked, but he didn't care about it. Instead, he searched for them one by one along the streets of Liulichang based on his memory.
Old Eunuch Jin was the chief eunuch of the previous dynasty. After Xuantong abdicated, according to the new government's "Regulations on Preferential Treatment for Abdication", the deposed emperor should not and was not allowed to keep eunuchs, such weirdos of the old society, around him. Therefore, Eunuch Jin and many others
The eunuchs remained near the Forbidden City, which became one of the biggest historical problems in Peiping.
In fact, the well-connected eunuch had already adopted his adopted son and had property nearby. According to the status of eunuch Jin, he would not and should not stay in the palace and live in that row of dilapidated small houses.
However, now Geng Chaozhong understood that when he stayed, he had a certain mission to return the remaining cultural relics of the Forbidden City to the royal family.
Completing this mission naturally requires the cooperation of many people, and antique shops are naturally the best choice.
The daily business of antique stores is to sell and purchase antiques, and also sell some imitations. Some large antique stores even engage in one-stop services such as wholesale, selling various genuine and fake items to all parts of the country.
Liulichang Street is the largest antique market in Peiping and even northern China. Transporting antiques back to Fengtian through this channel should be all the plans of Eunuch Jin.
Liulichang is not a small place. Finally, when he walked to the corner of the street, Geng Chaozhong finally saw a store with a gold-lettered signboard that read "Defu Yuan Antiques".
The store was pitch dark, and there seemed to be no movement, but Geng Chaozhong knew that there was usually a clerk who was guarding the store living in the back hall of the store.
After thinking for a while, Geng Chaozhong went around to the backyard of the store.
The front store and the back factory are the standard configuration of all antique stores. In the yard behind, they will engage in some business of imitating antiques. However, as soon as Geng Chaozhong walked to the door of the backyard, there were sounds of dogs barking inside.
A little troublesome.
At this time, although ordinary houses did not have security doors or the like, dogs were commonly kept, and it must be said that this primitive method was extremely effective. At least, the dogs in the yard had discovered Geng Chaozhong.
However, Geng Chaozhong did not back down from the fact that dogs have their advantages, but dogs also have their weaknesses. At least, during thunderstorms, dogs will also bark for no reason.
The dog in the yard kept barking, but Geng Chaozhong just stood quietly at the door, no matter how much the dog in the yard barked, he remained motionless.
"Crazy? Why are you barking in the middle of the night?!"
Finally, the lights came on in the yard, and a man wearing a raincoat came out cursing.
The dogs in the yard were still barking wildly, and then there was a "squeaking" sound. Obviously, the man in the yard was beating the dogs, but the dogs were very persistent and still barked unmoved.
"What's the matter? Is it so troublesome?"
Another voice came from the yard, and Geng Chaozhong looked stern.
The voice is sharp, it’s another eunuch!
"Dad, it's okay. The thunder shocked the dog. It will be fine in a while." The man in the yard replied.
"Oh, this weather is really unsettling!" The sharp voice came again.
Apparently, the man in the yard was the adopted son of the eunuch.
Eunuchs have adopted sons since ancient times. For example, the great eunuch Wei Zhongxian in the late Ming Dynasty had countless adopted sons, including many ministers in the court. Even Cao Cao was a eunuch. After all, eunuchs are also human beings, and they also hope to keep their roots.
.
"No matter, I guess it will be fine once the rain stops."
The son agreed, ignored the dogs and walked back into the house.
Geng Chaozhong smiled, jumped over the wall, and walked quickly to the front of the house. When the dogs saw Geng Chaozhong coming in, they roared and then pounced on him with their claws and teeth bared.
Geng Chaozhong was very experienced in beating dogs. He raised the butt of his gun and hit each one. In a blink of an eye, all three dogs were lying in the yard with their arms stretched out.
"Who?!" The people in the room finally discovered something unusual.
"it's me!"
With a click, Geng Chaozhong kicked open the door and broke into the house.
