Liu Tieyi turned around and glanced at me, motioning for us to follow him, then turned around and entered the secret door.

At this time, Qian Shan and I had already seen each other. We didn't expect that there was such a secret door hidden in the building of the Public Security Bureau. I don't know what Liu Tieyi just did, but the appearance of this secret door It's obviously not a switch or a simple revolving door like we've seen on TV before.

If I had to describe it, I would rather compare it to magic. Looking at Liu Tieyi's disappearing figure, Qian Shan and I quickly got into the secret door, and the wall behind us slowly closed after we entered.

When we walked into the secret door, a screen was blocked in front of us. We couldn't see the scene behind the screen clearly, but it seemed to be an office. Liu Tieyi motioned to us to straighten our clothes a little, and then walked inside. After standing at attention, he shouted loudly Said: "Shen Ju, I am Tie Yi!"

Then a deep voice came from inside: "Come in!"

Liu Tieyi turned sideways slightly, motioned for us to go around the screen, and then followed behind the two of us.

As soon as I passed the screen, an office with an area of ​​sixty or seventy square meters appeared in front of me. The whole office was decorated in a very simple way. The walls were surrounded by bookcases and bookshelves, which were filled with various things. There are books, toys, animal specimens, and even human skulls. The style of the entire office is completely different from the police station I know, and it even feels nondescript.

In front of the bookshelf on the side of the screen is a large desk. A middle-aged man in his fifties and wearing a Chinese tunic suit is sitting in front of a table, holding a magnifying glass and looking at something. , there were all kinds of strange things messily placed on the long table. Even when we came in, they never raised their heads to look at us. They were still looking at the things in their hands intently.

"Uncle!"

Qian Shan was the first to break the calm, and then walked quickly to the front of the table.

Seeing Qian Shan, Shen Donglei was not surprised at all, as if he had expected him to come. He just put the magnifying glass in his hand on the table and said slowly: "Well! San'er, you're here!" "

Qian Shan was slightly startled: "Uncle, did you know I was coming?"

Shen Donglei smiled faintly: "Don't think that I didn't know when you were outside eavesdropping on my phone that day. I definitely know exactly what you were doing when you raised your butt!"

Hearing Shen Donglei's words, Qian Shan laughed sarcastically, while groping around on Shen Donglei's desk, he said generally: "I heard that you took office early, so why don't I come to see you!"

Shen Donglei glanced at Wei Shan and said, "Look at me? How can you have such good intentions? Are you in trouble again?"

Qian Shan said with a helpless look: "Look, I won't go to see you. You said I don't have you in my heart. You are a white-eyed wolf. Now I come to see you, and you say my purpose is not pure. Alas, my nephew is not good." Sure, when your daughter gives birth to a nephew for me, I will also enjoy being an uncle!"

Shen Donglei was so angry that he laughed out loud: "You're just a poor guy, tell me, what's going on?"

Qian Shan chuckled: "It's nothing, I just came to see you. Oh, by the way, uncle, you are obviously here.

Why didn’t the people in the mailroom know about you when we came up just now?”

Hearing Qian Shan's words, a very intriguing expression suddenly appeared on Shen Donglei's face. He raised his eyes and looked at Liu Tieyi, who was standing aside. Liu Tieyi spread his hands to Shen Donglei, obviously telling Shen Dong that Ray, he didn't reveal any information to us.

Shen Donglei nodded and motioned for Qian Shan and me to sit down. He did not answer Qian Shan's question, but said to me with a smile: "You are Chen Qiyuan. I remember I met you once when you were young. Then You must have been less than five years old at that time, but I didn’t expect that you and San’er would have graduated from college in a blink of an eye. I can’t bear to accept my old age!”

I nodded to Shen Donglei: "I will follow the third brother and call you uncle. Don't call me by my first name. It sounds strange. Just call me Xiaoqi. My grandfather usually calls me that, too. I was still young at the time you mentioned it, so I had no memory of it, but I saw you once later."

"Oh? Another time?" Shen Donglei looked at me curiously.

"Well, if I remember correctly, it was during Grandpa Qian's funeral. You were wearing a military uniform and went with several other people. After worshiping in front of Grandpa Qian's mourning hall, you left in a hurry, because That time you came in a military vehicle, so I was particularly impressed. But I didn’t know who you were. Later, when I talked to my third brother, he told me it was you! You seem to have changed a lot compared to that time. Not too big!”

The grandfather I am talking about is Qian Shan’s grandfather. He passed away when Qian Shan and I were ten years old. When Mr. Qian left, many people I didn’t know came, and Shen Donglei and the others didn’t go until late at night. Yes, the impression given to me by the group of them was not that they went late, but that they seemed to have gone at that time specially. My grandfather also specially called me and Qian Shan away at that time, so I had a particularly deep impression.

Unexpectedly, after hearing my words, Shen Donglei showed a strange expression at first, and then looked into the distance, as if his whole thoughts were pulled into that memory, and after a while he vomited out a long sigh. He took a breath and said: "Yes, it was almost twelve or thirteen years ago. It was when the old man drove to Hexi. I didn't expect your memory to be so good. The first time I met you, you didn't know. I don’t know if you’ve met me for the second time, so let’s count this as our first meeting! However, since it’s our first meeting, how can we not have a meeting gift!”

After saying that, Shen Donglei opened the drawer, took out something from it, and handed it to me.

I took the thing and saw that it turned out to be a bracelet. The whole bracelet was made of bronze, about the thickness of a small zhi. There were several hexagonal nuts on both sides that could be rotated. Each surface was carved with Chinese characters. Some obscure inscriptions, the whole structure is extremely delicate. As the nut rotates, these inscriptions seem to take on different shapes and meanings. At the top of the bracelet, there is a rectangular structure about two or three centimeters wide. There is something like a compass embedded in the middle column.

I have never seen anything like it elsewhere, and I don’t know what the function of the inscription that can be rotated at will is, but I know the compass-like thing: "Feng Shui Compass!"

Shen Donglei nodded: "Yes, I heard that you studied architecture and have done some research on ancient buildings. With this compass, you can deduce related buildings based on the knowledge you have learned about ancient buildings. architectural structure and orientation! A general compass is more troublesome to use, but this

Things are much more convenient!”

"Uncle, what do these runes mean?" I quickly asked Shen Donglei.

Hearing my words, Shen Donglei couldn't help but feel a trace of embarrassment on his face: "I also got this thing accidentally. Judging from the legend, it should be something before the Shang and Zhou Dynasties. In addition to this Feng Shui compass, I'm looking for someone to get it." Apart from being extremely accurate after identification, I don't know exactly what the use of these rotating runes is. I've asked many people for advice on these inscriptions, but no one knows what they represent. It's useless to keep them here anyway. , if you can solve this puzzle, it will relieve my worries."

Although Shen Donglei said it very easily and simply, I know that this thing must be worth a lot of money. You must know that the most precious thing on the bronzes of the Shang and Zhou Dynasties is the inscription. If calculated according to the number, the inscriptions on this bracelet are These inscriptions definitely exceed any cultural relics from the Shang and Zhou dynasties that have been unearthed on the market.

And even if the value of these inscriptions is not taken into account, those hexagonal bronze nuts that can be rotated are definitely not what the level of craftsmanship of that era can bear.

"Since it's a meeting gift, I won't refuse. Thank you, uncle!"

From Shen Donglei's words, I could tell that this thing was definitely not prepared in a hurry. It was probably an excuse to say it was a meeting gift. Although I don't know why Shen Donglei gave me such a thing, since he has already Now that I've taken it out, I can't make excuses anymore, so I might as well be more casual and accept it directly.

Seeing that I accepted the things without hesitation, a look of approval appeared on Shen Donglei's face. Just as he was about to say something else, Qian Shan said from the side: "Hey, uncle, you can't be partial. You gave Xiao Qi'er such a good thing, so you have to give me something similar!"

Shen Donglei shook his head helplessly: "You kid, you really want to take advantage of me every chance you get!"

Qian Shan and I immediately looked at each other and laughed: "Uncle, I can't give you this thing for free, so let me pour you a cup of tea!"

As I said that, I stood up, took the thermos bottle aside, and was about to add some water to Shen Donglei's cup. At this moment, a wave of heat suddenly surged from my left arm to the back of my head, and I was in a trance. Suddenly, I saw the tan dog suddenly jumped from the side to the table, its nose was almost touching my nose, and a pair of green glasses stared at me closely.

In shock, his body pushed backwards like a reflex, and the thermos bottle in his hand almost fell to the ground.

Qian Shan on the side was startled by me and stood up immediately: "Damn it, Lao Qi, what are you doing?"

"Uncle, why do you keep a dog here? I was shocked!"

I said to Shen Donglei while calming my violently beating heart.

However, Qian Shan's words made me confused again: "What kind of dog? There is no dog. I said Lao Qi, you are not possessed by evil spirits, are you?"

I looked at the black native dog that was already crawling on Shen Donglei's table, and then at Shen Donglei. I didn't know what to say for a moment. Could it be that I had some hallucination like last night?
