In the minds of the older generation, the concept of "roots" is very thick.

For Chu Zhongren, this small corner is his "root", he was born here, grew up here, and naturally died here in the end.

Chu Fengping comforted his father a few words, inquired about his mother's condition for a while, and saw that the time was not early, so he hurriedly stepped on the road back to City A.

It's not that he doesn't want to stay at home for a while, but he is not qualified to stay at home and be a turtle with a shrunken head at ease now.

If he didn't get the money for his mother's surgery quickly, then he wouldn't even have a complete home!

......

Back at the Golden Diamond Hotel in City A, the first thing Chu Fengping did was to put out the pile of antiques that Wang Yunshi had packed and placed in his room one by one, trying to explore the mystery.

After a night of recovery, the number of times the Treasure Appreciation Divine Eye was used had been refreshed, however, even if Chu Fengping opened the Treasure Appreciation Divine Eye, he hadn't picked out anything more brilliant from this pile of antiques.

The only thing that is a little older is a women's golden hairpin.

The golden hairpin is shaped like a phoenix, the feathers are made of gold, and the eyes and mouth shells are decorated with red crystals, which are lifelike and vivid, as if they are about to take off from the sycamore branches in the next second. Chu Fengping squinted his eyes and looked at it for a long time, vaguely feeling that this phoenix seemed to have seen it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it.

"Forget it, there are so many ancient phoenix decorations, it's strange that they are not familiar. ”

Since he couldn't think of it, Chu Fengping didn't plan to study it in detail, so he only carefully collected the golden hairpin and put it in the drawer of the hotel bedside table.

In ancient times, the dragon and phoenix are the symbols of the royal family, this phoenix gold hairpin carving is superb, the material is one in a million, I am afraid it is the royal jewelry of the beautiful woman.

Chu Fengping didn't have time to care about the details, and his whole heart was focused on the question of why he couldn't find the source of the mysterious aura.

After pondering for a moment, a bold idea suddenly appeared in his mind—could it be that this aura was not attached to a certain object, but scattered everywhere, and needed to sense and cooperate with each other to generate a mysterious magnetic field?

Yes, it must be!

Otherwise, why didn't he notice anything wrong with the stone lion in front of the antique store before he was pushed by Boss Liu, but he felt that aura the moment he hit it, and even had superpowers that he couldn't even think of after waking up?

It must be something that has an induction with the stone lion, and it cooperates with the trigger of chance.

Chu Fengping's pupils suddenly constricted, and he couldn't help muttering: "So, that thing, is it my blood?"

......

In order to find out, Chu Fengping decided to go back to the antique store to check it out.

In the afternoon, the sun was shining and there were more pedestrians on both sides of the street than usual. In order to attract business, Boss Liu personally stood at the door of the antique store, greeted people with a smile, and bowed his hand: "Take a look, take a look, the treasures in our antique store have been evaluated by experts and masters!

"Ouch, Uncle Zhao, you haven't come to my store for a long time. Let me tell you, two days ago, I bought a batch of new jade, and it is a very good material!

"Lao Wang, what are you doing in such a hurry, come and come, come to the store for a cup of tea and rest for a while!"

"You...... How dare you come?!"

The moment he saw Chu Fengping, the smile on Boss Liu's face suddenly disappeared, replaced by undisguised disgust and hatred.

If he hadn't exposed him for selling fakes in front of Wang Yunshi, the big order of hundreds of thousands would have been made a long time ago, but now it's good, not only did he not make any money, but his reputation stinked a lot!

"It's not me who is doing the tricks, why don't I dare to come?" Chu Fengping replied calmly, "It's already very good if I didn't let you settle the rest of my salary." ”

"You ......"

"What am I, Boss Liu, I advise you not to act rashly. Otherwise, believe it or not, I have mixed up all your orders from now on?" Although Chu Fengping is a lot younger, his momentum is no worse than Boss Liu, and even a little taller and more powerful than Boss Liu.

He speaks in a loud voice, but it carries a lot of weight.

After all, how many fakes there are in the store, Boss Liu knows very well in his heart.

"What the hell are you going to do?" staring at Chu Fengping with a weak heart, Boss Liu's back had already begun to break out in a crazy cold sweat, "If you want a salary, I'll give it to you, there's no need to play so ruthlessly, right?"

The last time the eldest lady of the Wang family almost suffered a loss from him, it took a lot of effort for Boss Liu to suppress the rumors and barely maintain his reputation as "100% genuine".

What if something goes wrong...... God, what is he going to do business in the future?

"Don't worry, I'm just here to see if I've left anything behind. Chu Fengping glanced at Boss Liu lightly, and walked in the door by himself-he didn't have the time to care about Boss Liu's, he was just a poor man who lost his dignity for the sake of petty profits, and it was not worth wasting precious time.

However, before Chu Fengping could take two steps, a voice exploded like thunder.

"Do you still have the face to come back?"

The lofty posture, the tone of no one in his eyes, who else could it be if it wasn't Liu Yi?

Following the direction from which the voice came, Chu Fengping really saw the guy with an arrogant and conceited face.

"What's the matter? It's not shameful enough to steal something once and be kicked out of the door, and now you want to steal it a second time?" Liu Yi's voice was deliberately raised very high, attracting the attention of many customers, and most of the people in the antique store were looking at Chu Fengping, wanting to see who the "thief" in the store guy's mouth was.

Chu Fengping stood in place without being humble or arrogant, not angry but laughing: "In broad daylight, the thief shouts to catch the thief." Liu Yi, I haven't seen you for half a month, and your acting skills have improved a lot?"

The commotion attracted the attention of Boss Liu, who was soliciting guests.

"Hey, don't make any noise, what's going on?" Boss Liu's heart was about to jump out of his throat, for fear that Chu Fengping would be unhappy and start smashing his rice bowl again, "Liu Yi, what are you yelling about!

If there was a conflict between Chu Fengping and Liu Yi in the past, Boss Liu would inevitably favor his nephew regardless of the reason.

Today, the attitude is diametrically opposed.

"Third uncle, you were busy welcoming customers just now, and you didn't pay attention for a while, so this kid slipped back to the store again!" Liu Yi stretched out his hand and pointed directly at Chu Fengping's nose, his attitude was extremely bad, "I was fired and returned, isn't it ill-intentioned?"

Chu Fengping smiled.

"Sorry, that doesn't mean I'm ill-intentioned. But it shows you're narrow-minded, doesn't it?"

People with dark minds will always speculate on the psychology of others from the same angle, so in their eyes, the whole world is rotten.
