At three o'clock in the morning, when everything was completely quiet, Song Yun quietly came out of the utility room without making any sound, climbed over the wall and left the educated youth site, and walked quickly through the shadows of the narrow village road, and soon arrived outside the house where target 1 was located.
Looking at the house alone, it is no different from other houses in the village, with the same stone threshold, adobe walls, and green tile roof. The kitchen and utility room on the left and right sides are slightly lower and have thatched roofs, similar in appearance to the utility room where Song Yun lives.
The yard is not big, and the wall is slightly higher than other houses. The wall is full of broken glass. I have seen so many houses along the way, but no one has so much glass on the wall. It can be seen that the owner is very cautious.
Naturally, this little bit of broken glass couldn't stop her, and she easily climbed into the yard.
First, I walked around the house to determine which room was occupied and which was empty.
Just as those gossips said, this family has a simple population, no elderly people, a middle-aged couple and a pair of children, a son of 19 and a daughter of 17.
The family of four lived in a house with five rooms, one for the couple, one for the son and one for the daughter, and the other two were empty and locked.
It is not difficult to open this old lock. Although Song Yun is not skilled, she opened the lock within five minutes.
The door was very old and creaked whenever it was moved. Song Yun moved very slowly and lightly, trying to minimize the noise. She stopped when the door was one-third open and moved sideways to enter.
There was nothing special about the room. There was an empty bed and some old things that had obviously not been used for a long time. Song Yun guessed that this room should be the house where the owner Chen Pingsan's deceased parents lived before.
She searched the house carefully but didn't find anything unusual. When she was about to move to another room to look, she caught sight of the altar in the corner of the room.
The altar table looks normal at first glance. Most rural families have such an altar table to worship relatives who have passed away in the past three months. There are three empty bowls on the altar table and there is no incense in the small incense burner. This is normal. People don’t have enough to eat these days, so there is no extra food to be left on the altar table to mold. At most, they use food to worship and then take it away and eat it.
The strange thing is that the three empty bowls were covered with a layer of dust, obviously they had not been used for a long time. The table was also covered with a layer of dust. It was obvious that this family had not worshipped their ancestors for a long time. However, the incense burner was very clean. Under the flashlight, it reflected a faint golden halo, which showed that someone wiped it frequently.
This is strange. Everything in the whole room is covered in dust, except for this incense burner, which is still bright.
Song Yun immediately walked over and examined the incense burner at close range. After just one closer look, she discovered something was wrong.
This was no ordinary incense burner; its exquisiteness surpassed all the incense burners she had seen in museums before.
I picked up the incense burner and looked at the bottom and inside of the burner. I saw the words engraved on the bottom of the burner. It turned out to be an antique from the Tang Dynasty.
The incense burner was wiped so clean and well protected. It was obvious that Chen Pingsan knew the value of the incense burner. He placed it here not only for his own appreciation, but also probably to hide it from others.
It is obviously abnormal that he is lazy and eats a lot but lives a life of no worries about food and drink.
In the dusty, empty room, stood an antique from the Tang Dynasty. She could already guess what Chen Pingsan would say. If someone found this thing, or even saw through it, he would say it was just an incense burner he'd picked up at a scrapyard, used to burn incense for his parents, and he didn't know if it was from the Tang Dynasty or not.
