Chapter 213 Jade Beast Face Pattern [1]

Qindu Museum.

Standing in this place, Bai Xie's eyes flickered for a moment, and then his expression returned to its cold and stern look.

He had been watching from a distance after yesterday's sniper attempt failed. Through sensing and speculation, he felt that Zhang Wufeng was truly extraordinary. His hidden weapon techniques were more like those of the killer Tianniu, but he himself was a disciple of the Xingyi School.

Of course, Bai Xie had already thoroughly understood all the information before this.

“A month ago, I was a homebody, an ordinary guy, and my wife had abandoned me. I didn’t even have money to take a bus and had to borrow money from others.

Then, he suddenly became rich by gambling on stones. He bought a villa and a luxury car and became acquainted with the Sun family.

Later, he fell into an underground river during the trip to Tengning and miraculously survived. He then killed Paul and Tom, and then gambled with the Jade King Sakaguchi Mu at Shien and came back alive.

Then he rescued Sun Feifei, and took down the two women in one fell swoop, and successfully cured Ye Xi's advanced uremia and Su Ru's mutated cancer.

Then, when we entered Qindu, Miss Xu died, important items at the Rong family auction house mysteriously disappeared, Huang Jintian from the Huang family died, Gu Ze and Ding Sanzhu from the Xingyi Sect died. Are there any connections among them?"

Bai Xie's eyes flashed, and his pair of gray eyes looked a little scary like a blind man. He stood at the door of the museum, but not many people paid attention to him, as if he was just an ordinary Qindu boy.

"Whether it's true or false, you either die or obey!"

An evil smile appeared on Bai Xie's lips. He straightened his back and his shoulders suddenly became thinner. His overall appearance did not change much, but some subtle changes made him look like a completely different person.

Then he bought a ticket and walked into the Qindu Museum.

……

Holding Su Ru's hand, Zhang Wufeng avoided the fat woman who was still chattering and speaking sarcastically. He condensed three crystal forces within a range of eight meters and pierced into her spinal cord, lumbar vertebrae and purple palace.

These three points, in the Five Elements Acupuncture, are a special stimulation method that accelerates the outbreak of hidden diseases in the body, which is just right for this immoral woman.

"Wufeng, are you a little unhappy? Let's just have fun and don't care what others say." Su Ru seemed to be able to feel the abnormality in Zhang Wufeng's use of crystal power. Of course, she naturally didn't expect that Zhang Wufeng had actually taken action.

"No, it's a tit-for-tat. She's slandering others all the time, so she'll get her retribution soon." Zhang Wufeng said with a grin.

"You, are still talking about others." Su Ru smiled, but held Zhang Wufeng's hand even tighter.

……

"This is a jade animal-faced Yi. It is made of top-grade jasper from Xuzhou. The carving techniques include relief, embossing, intaglio, and hollowing. It is divided into two parts, the lid and the vessel, with a deep cavity. The lid is decorated with a reclining animal with two horns, and the spine is carved with an arched button and a movable ring. The outer wall of the vessel is divided by four symmetrical halberd patterns, the upper part is a relative Kui dragon pattern, and the lower part is a beast face pattern. There is a circle of banana leaf pattern on the upper part of the foot. The beast head swallows the Kui handle. The bottom of the vessel is inscribed with three vertical lines: "The Si Kou Yi Zhou Jian Yong Wei. Hundreds of rains. The four sides are forever dry." The outer bottom is engraved with the six characters "Qing Qianlong Imitation of Antiques" in official script. The lid is engraved with the poem written by Emperor Qianlong in regular script: "A handful of Khotan jade, carved into a Si Kou Yi. The general is simple and ancient, not suitable for the times. The green leeks are still moist, the yellow millet is only surprised. The four sides are forever dry, the ancient style inscription." There are also two seals: "Qianlong Ji Hai Spring Imperial Title" and "Bi De" and "Lang Run".

This Yi was made in imitation of the Zhou Dynasty bronze Si Kou Yi recorded in the Song Dynasty's Bo Gu Tu, and later recorded in the Xiqing Ancient Mirror. It has an exquisite shape and superb craftsmanship. The jade is 'leek green' and slightly transparent, and the black spots inside resemble the rust spots on bronze ware. Therefore, Qianlong loved it very much, and wrote a poem and inscribed it. It can be called an immortal work. "

An old man in green pointed at a green jade carving that looked like a mask with animal patterns and explained in detail that the jade carving was protected by transparent tempered glass and looked extremely precious.

As soon as Zhang Wufeng and Su Ru walked in, Su Ru was immediately attracted by the jade beast-faced basin. She liked things that were more spiritual, and when Zhang Wufeng took a look at this thing, he already felt that it had some special spirituality.

This is a collection of treasures, and the value of anything here is unimaginable, so Zhang Wufeng doesn't find it strange that there are spiritual things here.

In addition to feeling a trace of special energy fluctuations in this jade beast-faced basin, Zhang Wufeng also felt these special energies in many other cultural relics and antiques.

Especially in some calligraphy works, the emotional energy of boldness, grandeur, magnificence and majesty is very strong, and Zhang Wufeng can feel it from afar.

Therefore, although Zhang Wufeng didn’t understand the real antiques, calligraphy and paintings, he could sense whether they were real or fake.

Of course, he also found things here that were not spiritual but worth tens of millions, such as the Northern Song Dynasty Ru Kiln Fenghua Zun worth 70 million yuan, and the Chunshou Meiping worth 30 million yuan. These things cost tens of millions, but Zhang Wufeng could not feel that there was anything special in these porcelains.

If there is any special feeling, it is that there is a special "majestic" atmosphere in these porcelains. Of course, this atmosphere is more of a feeling.

Zhang Wufeng looked at the old man in green and found that his appearance was somewhat similar to that of Master Lin who was cutting stones. However, after careful consideration, Zhang Wufeng felt that this was probably because both of them had a unique temperament in their industry, and this true professionalism made them still energetic, unique, and heroic despite their age. As the saying goes, a person with knowledge of poetry and books will be elegant, and Zhang Wufeng felt that this was indeed true.

"Grandpa Huang, is this a purple clay teapot?" At this time, a short girl with a smart and cute face asked cunningly.

"Haha, Lingling, didn't I tell you about this? This is called the 'Silkworm and Mulberry Teapot', a kind of purple clay teapot. You may like it, but it's a pity that I can't give it to you to play with. If you want it, I can ask someone to imitate one for you." Mr. Huang said with a smile.

He looks very kind when he smiles, and makes people feel a sense of intimacy from the bottom of their hearts.

"Who makes this teapot so cute? Look at the silkworms on it, they are so real. Especially as you said, when they change color slightly when it comes into contact with hot water, they are even more lifelike. That's why I am so looking forward to it." The little girl pouted and chattered non-stop.

Many men, women, young and old nearby also laughed when they heard this.

"Yes, this work is a masterpiece. The body of the pot is covered with mulberry leaves and silkworms are wriggling inside. The image is extremely lifelike." A middle-aged uncle said with emotion. His eyes were full of love, but only with appreciation.

"Indeed, this pot is made of white clay mixed with fine sand, and the sand is moist. The pot body is flat and round with a folded belly, and the upper part is carved into a natural scene of silkworms gnawing on mulberry leaves. The lower part of the belly is kept plain, and the pot lid is made into a mulberry leaf with mulberry dates, and a silkworm eating a small mulberry leaf lies on it as the lid button. Many silkworms are crawling among the mulberry leaves that are covered with holes of different sizes and are upside down. In addition, the pot spout is made of a leaf, and the pot handle is made of a mulberry branch. There are many half-exposed and half-hidden silkworms in the mulberry leaves, and the shape is very vivid. There is a square seal with the four characters "Made by Chen Mingyuan" in seal script on the bottom. This is an excellent work by Chen Mingyuan imitating natural shapes. At first glance, the color of the pot clay is similar to that of silkworms, and then appreciate the shape of the pot, it can be seen that Mingyuan's pot art is indeed ingenious."

Another old man in black nodded slightly and said with admiration.

Zhang Wufeng and Su Ru stood here, looking a little dazed.

The two smiled at each other, then shook their heads in shame.

They listened to the serious introduction of this professional with great interest, but they themselves did not understand anything at all.

"Haha, today I have introduced ten treasures to you all. Now let me tell you about 'picking up a bargain'." The old man surnamed Huang said with a confident smile.

He glanced at the people in the collection room and saw that there were already quite a few of them. He nodded slightly to show his satisfaction.

He pondered for a moment, cleared his throat and said: "Everyone may think that 'picking up a bargain' is nonsense and a joke. After all, with the development of technology today, people are becoming more and more savvy.

Of course, some people also think that if they want to find a bargain, they have to go to Fan Garden, ghost market, antique shops in other places, or even the kang of a fellow villager in the countryside. In this way, they use their profound knowledge and powerful wisdom to buy "treasures" at a low price that are ten times or even a hundred times the original price. This is "finding a bargain."

In fact, this is not the case. Even though the current technology is advanced, this "advanced" is relative. Whether it is really advanced or not, only the people know it in their hearts.

If we can’t install a battery in our bodies to fly, or travel through space, then all our development is a joke.”

"Hahaha--"

"Ha ha--"

……

The old man's words made everyone laugh, and the old man in black laughed very happily.

The old man surnamed Huang chuckled and continued, "If you really go there with this mentality, then nine out of ten times you won't be able to find anything, because this mentality is wrong.

In antique shops, there are often some good things hidden in the dust. The key is how to discover them.

Some people say, when you don’t know it’s a pearl, it’s just trash, how can I find it? When I know it’s a pearl, it’s already been found by others, how can I still pick it up?
I said, you should think like this, and observe with your heart and eyes——"

The old man was speaking very brilliantly, but his words suddenly froze. At this moment, Zhang Wufeng felt a chill in his heart, and almost instinctively pulled Su Ru and made him duck and jump, while at the same time, he shot out three poisonous needles in succession from his hands.

"Bai Xie, get out of here!" The old man surnamed Huang's face darkened at this time, and his pair of tiger eyes suddenly glared over. The man in white who was originally standing calmly outside the door flashed and avoided the three poisonous needles. At this time, his face suddenly became slightly stern, and then he laughed evilly, turned around and left.

"See you in Yun Palace tonight! If you don't come, you will regret it!" Bai Xie had already walked a long way, but his voice floated into Zhang Wufeng's ears.

I am ashamed to say that I wrote something about antiques today, and it took me more than four hours to finish one chapter. . I am really ashamed.
