The underworld has slang, which is the code word circulating in the underworld; the special business of tomb robbing also has a lot of jargon, which is no less exciting than the slang.
Chong'er: When you press the bottom of the box, something that makes the viewer's eyes shine. Even the antiques in the entire store can't compare to this one. In layman's terms, it is the treasure of the store; Chong'er can not only refer to objects, but also to objects.

The lingo in tomb robbing is as good as the lingo in literature and entertainment, but not everyone understands it. Only experts who have been immersed in this for a long time can speak 6 out of 10. Now, a woman with such a good-looking appearance actually opens her mouth.
Yes, Wo Gua is obsessed with beauty. Apart from thinking with her lower body, her upper body has already gone offline.
"You guys followed us all the way on the train. What do you think?"
Yes, these two people were none other than the two who had been sitting next to Li Lvyan and Jin Yuanbao on the train. Originally, Li Lvyan stopped chasing them when he saw them get off the train, and comforted himself that it was just a coincidence.
Now it seems that there are so many coincidences in the world?
The woman smiled softly. She looked much more casual after putting on regular clothes, but her smile was even more coquettish. The bodyguard next to her who had never changed for thousands of years was doing his duty with no expression at all, as motionless as a puppet.
"Maybe your attitude will change when you go to Long Island."
The woman smiled faintly and already had four tickets in her hand. She seemed to be sure that the two of them would follow her. It was really irritating. Li Lvyan was ready to go in the opposite direction, but Wogua was already like an old scalper.
The rope on the nose plug seemed to be pulling, and it was already being led away by the nose. He immediately stamped his feet again, secretly annoyed that Wo Gua was so careless.
The ferry that took them to Changdao was a civilian fishing boat converted into a tourist ferry for people. The ferry was a bit shabby, but it had many seats. The seats for a few people were in the last row. The sea breeze was blowing, there were seagulls, and the scenery was amazing.
She was beautiful. Wo Gua shamelessly approached the woman and shouted that he wanted to compose a poem for her.
Jin Yuanbao doesn't even know a few Chinese characters. Some time ago, he even changed the four-character sign of "Qiushi Junior High School" into three characters. Now he actually wants to compose a poem in front of this woman. It's obviously like sticking a green onion in a pig's nose.
, pretending to be like that, but Wo Gua didn’t have such consciousness, but when he saw him salivating, he took a sip of the fragrance on the woman’s neck, and opened his mouth as if he was intoxicated, that look could be as obscene as it is
Obscene.
"Swallow a bowl, fill a bowl, eat according to the time; one pot of pig, one pot of meat, meat and vegetable combination 6!"
…
Sure enough, he lived up to his expectations and successfully created the pinnacle of limericks. Li Lvyan pursed his lips: At least he rhymed.
"What a delicious woman, oh no, beautiful woman, so mesmerizing. Will you be my dinner, oh no, have dinner with me?"
Li Lvyan coughed inappropriately next to him, "Wo Gua, for the past four months, you haven't paid me back the money for the meat buns I bought you every morning."
But this interruption was like tickling Wo Gua, and it did not suppress his arrogant arrogance at all. Li Lvyi couldn't stand it anymore, and held Jin Yuanbao's ear and said, "You see see you, one day day.
Just o, you see see you fat, this type of beauty, even if you kick your ass to look like Mona Lisa, people will not look down on you, what are you thinking?"
The woman smiled and said nothing from the beginning to the end, but her eyes kept darting back and forth on Li Lvyan. Li Lvyan was so hairy all over that she didn't know what kind of evil this woman was holding back.
"Do you know? I just went to the famous Huangshan Mountain in China not long ago. Do you know what we took to go there in that scenery? It was my brother's helicopter..."
Just now, Wogua said that he wanted Li Lvyan to be his wingman. He noticed that this woman's eyes had been fixed on Li Lvyan, and he wanted to have sex with her, so he deliberately comforted Li Lvyan and told him not to cut off his beard. Therefore,
Nowadays, the pretentiousness has exceeded the limit more and more.
"I have to say that Huangshan Mountain in Anhui City, Jiangsu Province is quite beautiful."
!!!!
Li Luyi was sitting upright when he suddenly felt a few murderous auras coming from the front and rushed straight to the last row. Wogua suddenly trembled and looked at the person in front of him who turned his head in confusion and glared at him fiercely, Li Luyi.
Ant quickly smoothed things over and pointed at his head, "Well, my brother, this is not good." After saying this, those few people turned their heads "humming".
He glanced at Hu Tianhai complainingly at Wo Gua, who was still blowing the wind: Damn it’s lucky that there are only those few Anhui people on this boat. If all the people on this boat were Anhui people, I’m afraid that Wo Gua would fill up the sea with Jingwei and be caught.
Go to Saihaiyan.
The woman smiled silently all the way, no matter how bragging Wo Gua was, she always nodded in greeting with good manners, which made Wo Gua's heart sway even more. The woman's face was coquettish, with a hint of coldness and nobility, but she was wearing a camouflage tights.
Like a tourist going hiking or mountain climbing, he looks more and more heroic. Every time he looks at it, Wo Gua can't help but say: It's so beautiful. The camouflage uniform looks like pig intestines wrapped in offal on me. It's the icing on the cake when it's worn on a beautiful woman, tsk tsk tsk -
—
After wandering for half an hour, the boat finally arrived at Changdao. The bodyguard behind the woman had been following closely, and now there was a new member of the family. Li Lvyan had no choice but to follow, but she didn't go directly.
I really felt like I was traveling around the island, and then I took a sightseeing bus to a place called "Crescent Bay".
There are countless farmhouses and fishermen's houses along the way. It can be imagined that the tourism industry here is indeed developed.
Just as Wo Gua was riding a tandem bicycle like a pig, with Li Lvyan following behind him, but secretly eyeing the woman, a box-type off-road vehicle made a big drift and stopped at the ticket entrance of Crescent Bay with a "snap".
Shocked, Wo Gua braked suddenly, almost falling down the two of them, and cursed, "Who doesn't have a good eye to drive? I will definitely give you some color today -"
Although the man with black glasses was wearing camouflage uniform, he was still wearing a beige windbreaker, and several other people filed down behind him.
"Boss, boss, I already knew it was you. I have to say that the temperament of this car is really amazing. I can feel your majestic appearance as early as eight hundred miles away, so I am waiting here specially!"
…………
Black Glasses glanced at Jin Yuanbao, Li Lvyan covered his face, but the woman took the initiative to talk to him, "Zhang Qing, you are late."
"Something happened, so I came late. It's great that you can bring them here."
Li Lvyan was confused: Huh? They actually know each other? And what this means is that he and his two pigs don't know the way at all, and they specifically need the tadpole to find its mother, so they were led here?
Jin Yuanbao was unhappy on the spot, but when he blinked, he saw Qin Pianpian sticking her tongue out at him in a camouflage uniform. He immediately said with heart-wrenching eyes, "Hey, isn't this your little sweetheart? Why is she here?"
?" Next to Qin Pianpian was a tall, thin man with a rather rotten air. He looked extremely weak, and he was no match for Li Lvyan.
"Why is Zhuo Ziyan missing?" Li Lvyan turned his head and looked at the carriage again, and sure enough, Zhuo Ziyan was not there.
"He has other tasks and cannot come this time."
It's a pity that Zhuo Ziyan saved her many times last time, and she wanted to thank him properly. Qin Pianpian curled her lips when she saw Li Luyi like this.
Jin Yuanbao poked Li Lvyan's waist again, "Your little lover
Appearing with your love rival, brother, do you need a wingman?"
Black glasses looked at Qin Pianpian from afar, "She and Nie Fengshui are members of an inspection team. They specially applied to participate in the event this time. As for these two -" the woman turned her head and smiled at the audience, "My name is Luan
Jingjing, this is my partner, Su Jiu, I hope everyone will take care of me."
"Luan Jingjing is the daughter of a famous professor of cultural relics at the Chinese Academy of Sciences. She is also a well-known historian at home and abroad. She will also participate in the event this time."
Li Lvyan looked at his black glasses strangely: Shouldn't this operation be carried out secretly and quietly? With so many people gathering here all of a sudden, is it obvious to tell people that the end point is here? One thing comes to mind.
He wanted to talk to Black Glasses, but Black Glasses glanced at Li Lvyan, "I've booked a bed and breakfast in Crescent Bay for the night. The room has been booked. Let's go now."
Full of questions, Li Lvyan and Jin Yuanbao had no choice but to go to the B&B they had booked. The couple in the B&B looked honest and did their duty. Every shelf between the B&Bs was wrapped with vines and grape leaves, which looked pleasantly green.
.
What made Li Lvyan feel even more weird was that when a few people entered the B&B, Zuo Fu, whom they hadn't seen for a long time, was followed by a short-haired woman, smiling and waiting for the arrival of the large army.
"Lao Zuo?"
Zuo Fu chuckled, "Little brother, you're late."
Li Luyi waved his hand quickly, "I wrote many letters to Mr. Zuo, but Mr. Zuo never replied. I thought that Mr. Zuo wouldn't be able to come this time."
Zuo Fu Weiwei said, "I have received the letter. I just don't know if my little brother's address has changed, so it's difficult to deliver it directly. But I know the approximate location, so I waited here in advance."
Li Lvyan scratched his head a little strangely. He felt that there seemed to be some loophole in this sentence, but he couldn't find it: he only wrote in the letter that the location was in the Penglai area of Shandong Province. The specific location would have to be inspected after arriving.
It took some time to confirm that it was Luan Jingjing who came to Changdao with a few of her people. Black Glasses also said that this B&B was just booked last night. How could Zuo Fu be so clever in calculating that it must be here?
The short-haired woman next to her seemed to have a bit of girlish innocence on her face, but she was dressed in a rather unconventional way. Li Lvyan asked in surprise, "Who is this?"
Shen Wanwan stuck out her tongue, "Brother Li, don't you remember me?"
Li Luyi looked at Shen Wanwan's short black hair, which was still mixed with red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple strands, and immediately asked in surprise, "Who are you?"
Shen Wanwan smiled slightly, "That's me. Grandpa didn't worry about leaving me alone at home, so he brought me with him. I hope brother Li won't drive me away." She made a pitiful look.
Li Lvyan wiped his sweat: The current situation is not up to anyone. He obviously doesn't have the final say, but he can only say in a low voice, "I'll try my best."
Because of this sentence, I had to bite the bullet and whisper to Black Glasses for a while. I thought that there would be some special reaction from the black glasses, but he just nodded his head nonchalantly, and then walked to his room alone.
The B&B has been fully booked, and their respective rooms are fixed. Jin Yuanbao and Li Lvyan naturally share a room, Qin Pianpian and Luan Jingjing share a room, and the remaining few people each share a room, and fell asleep in confusion.
In the darkness, Jin Yuanbao's call was like thunder, and Li Lvyan couldn't sleep because of something on his mind. It seemed that when he fell asleep, he felt like something was looking at him in front of the bed. He stood up with excitement and black glasses.
He was staring at himself expressionlessly. He almost screamed out in fright. He was wrapped in a blanket and looked at the black glasses in shock.
"Come with me."
The two of them walked out of the B&B in a muffled voice. In the darkness, Qin Pianpian's closed eyes seemed to feel something. She suddenly opened them and looked at the beautiful face of Luan Jingjing, who was sleeping beside her. She quietly lifted the quilt, got up and left the room.
Li Lvyan kicked the stone and waited boredly for Black Glasses, who had been silent for a long time, to speak first, but Black Glasses remained silent as if he was deliberately going against him.
If the enemy does not move, I will not move.
"I will not participate in this event this time. Luan Jingjing is responsible for the task of leading the team. You and Jin Yuanbao must be careful."
If the enemy moves, I——!!
"What?"
Li Lvyan raised his head in disbelief. Qin Pianpian quietly hid in the dark, but bumped into another person.
Time flows quietly in the dark night, as fast as a white horse passing by. After a long silence, there are questions.
"Why didn't you ask more about those two people?"
The man with black glasses half-smiled, "Didn't you say that I know exactly what the fillings of the buns you eat every morning are, so how could I not know about the stranger who suddenly broke into your life?" He wanted to say something again, but felt that
This is not the time: and the vicious identities of those two people, how could they not arouse my vigilance?
Then he quickly said, "Qin Pianpian is just a spoiled rich lady in the city, how can she participate in this event? Black glasses, I think -"
"She must participate, and everyone I met here today must also participate. Li Lvyan, I am not participating in this event because I have more important tasks. This sentence does not mean that this event is not important.
To be honest, our Snow Leopard Commando——" He looked to the side warily, "Who?"
Two figures passed by quickly, and in the empty alley, there were only two or three wild cats looking for food, "Meow——"
Li Lvyan scratched his head and looked at the somewhat shaky black glasses. The black glasses darkened his eyes, "In short, this mission is extraordinary. You must be careful. Don't trust anyone except Jin Yuanbao!"
