Chapter 244 Someone is following us
Gu Yin was unaware of her appearance, which made Zhou Tengfei very nervous.
Even if she knew, she wouldn't be afraid now. What's the point of having the enemy in the dark while she's in the light? It's more fun when everyone's in the open.
I had lunch at Professor Hou's house, but he didn't come back. The old lady called him, but he didn't answer, so he must be busy.
Not wanting to linger too long, Feng Jianyue and Gu Yin put down the gifts and stopped the old lady from seeing them off, then left the residential building.
After leaving the residential building, Feng Jiangyue looked at Gu Yin and said, "Want to take a walk around Qingdao University? It's a rare opportunity to come here."
Gu Yin had the same idea and nodded: "Sure."
Walking along the familiar school path, Feng Jiangyue said with a smile, "Because of Xia Zhi, I often came here when I was studying. Whenever Xia Zhi had a large lecture, I would come to accompany him if I didn't have a class. As a result, all the students and teachers in his department knew me. Professor Hou also met me at that time. Later, when Xia Zhi took the postgraduate entrance exam, Professor Hou took him as a disciple and ran errands for him, did projects for him, etc. Many times, I accompanied him. I looked up information for him and encouraged him. At that time, I was the only one by his side. So when Xia's family asked me to leave him and said that I was delaying him, I almost laughed to death. I know that Xia Zhi is not that kind of person, but I was still very angry. I felt sorry for him growing up in that kind of family, and I was also angry that he did not handle the family affairs well. In a fit of anger, I went to your place."
At this point, Feng Jiangyue laughed: "Isn't the teacher a bit willful?"
Gu Yin shook her head: "I don't understand matters of the heart, but I do know that it's a matter of mutual consent. You two know the answer to each other. After all, outsiders haven't been involved in your lives and don't understand you, so they have no right to make decisions for you."
Feng Jiangyue patted Gu Yin on the shoulder: "Look, you know this at such a young age, but none of the Xia family members understand it."
"The front is the history department of Qingdao University. Many famous historical figures studied here before the founding of the People's Republic of China."
Gu Yin also saw many sculptures of famous people.
"I thought the history department was the same as the archaeology department."
Feng Jiangyue shook her head: "Qingda University doesn't have an archaeology department, but Huada University next door does. It's a very unpopular major, but many of those who study it have family backgrounds in archaeology. After graduation, they either work in museums, search for ancient tombs, or engage in cultural relic protection, antique appraisal, and auctions, etc."
So that's how it is. Later, novels and TV series about tomb raiding became very popular, and she quite enjoyed watching them—they were mysterious and exciting.
Upon hearing this, 001 immediately flew out: "Host, I'm going to check out the archaeology department at Huada University next door. You guys go ahead and have fun. If you leave and I'm not back yet, you can go back first. I'll go back by myself! No matter where you are, I can find you!"
The knowledge used in archaeology is the same as that used in folk tales. Knowing that 001 was interested, he nodded and said, "Then be careful, don't get caught."
"Don't worry, no one in this world can catch me! I'm leaving now!" With that, he flew away.
Qingdao University is huge; we walked around for over an hour and still hadn't seen everything.
Feng Jiangyue was too exhausted, so she found a chair to rest.
Gu Yin checked the time; it was already two o'clock. Students were riding bicycles back and forth on the school road; it was time for class.
She had originally planned to meet with Grandpa Lu today, but she hadn't brought a gift, and it would be impolite to show up empty-handed, so she decided to postpone it until tomorrow, so she could make an appointment in advance.
After resting, the two returned to the hotel.
Feng Jiangyue took a nap in the afternoon instead of going out. After everyone was asleep, Gu Yin packed her things, left a note, and went out.
She planned to buy a gift for Mr. Lu, but she had no idea what to do yet, so she had to go out and take a look.
After leaving the hotel, Gu Yin looked at the nearby map. There were shopping malls, antique shops, and shops selling traditional crafts and intangible cultural heritage items, among other things.
Thinking back to her previous life when she came here, Gu Hua had taken her to an antique market. The things there were quite interesting, so she thought she might as well go and take a look.
Gu Yin flagged down a car, told the driver the destination, and arrived at her destination half an hour later.
After getting off the bus, Gu Yin looked at the bustling secondhand market in front of her, and her spirits lifted.
This flea market is known as "the largest flea market in the country," "the largest and most comprehensive collectibles market in the country," and "the largest distribution center for folk crafts in the country." ①
If you're lucky, you might be able to snag a bargain; if you're unlucky, you might lose everything in less than a day!
Gu Yin mainly wanted to go to those stores to see the genuine products, even though the prices might be higher, because the goods were authentic.
As soon as Gu Yin stepped into the street, she saw 001 fly back.
"So, how was it? Any results?" He smiled at 001.
001 excitedly spun around: "Of course! There's so much! But a lot of the information isn't complete. Most of it is only half-finished, or just a copy. Many of those documents say that the remaining parts are still in private hands, or collected by certain families, etc. I think we should travel around more. I'm sure the gains from the private sector are considerable!"
Gu Yin agreed with these points: "We still need to go to the Taoist temples. Those places should have a lot of complete materials, as well as some traditions that cannot be passed down to the world. I'll take you to some of the more famous Taoist temples during the summer vacation!"
001 took flight: "Okay!"
After speaking, Gu Yin began to visit some of the antique stalls.
I must say, the items are really beautiful, and they all look genuine. Someone like her, who has no knowledge of antiques, is so easily fooled.
"Host, someone is following you."
Gu Yin didn't turn around. She had sensed something was wrong just now. She had originally planned to go to the shop, but she felt something was off, so she came to the stall.
There are many people here, which makes it easier for her to see what kind of person the other person is.
