1. The first symbol
In early spring, the grass grows and the warbler flies.
On the black plaque, the three golden characters of "Bazhen Pavilion" are dancing with dragons and phoenixes, and the open wooden door poses as an invitation to guests, but the foyer is cold, and there are no guests coming.
This is a feng shui shop, the owner is a young man, in his twenties, with beautiful eyebrows, very ancient, starry eyes like water, sword eyebrows and handsome face, just like ink and blue, and with his ironing black satin Tang suit, it is no problem to pull it out directly to take an ancient style photo.
Zhou Tong propped his chin with one hand, looked at the empty hallway, and yawned sullenly.
He glanced at the wall clock on the wall, and at four o'clock in the afternoon, the day was almost over, and there was still not a single customer in the store.
Just when he was pondering whether to close the door directly, a person rushed in from outside the door, and a ball of fat rushed over holding a wooden box.
The fat man grabbed Zhou Tong's wrist, looked around like a thief, and saw that there was no one around, so he exhaled and said to Zhou Tong cautiously: "Xiaotong, brother brought a good thing, help brother take a look." β
"What is still hidden?" Zhou Tong was pulled into the house by the fat man in confusion, the fat man winked at him, and said mysteriously: "This time I bet that it must be a treasure! I see that many people want to buy it, so let's do it first!"
Zhou Tong smiled and said nothing.
This very cute-looking fat man is called Zhengzheng, it is Zhou Tongfa small, there is no other problem, except for overeating, he likes "Taobao", but his vision is very poor, and there are few treasures that can be seen in the past.
The "good thing" brought over by the upright is a bronze halberd head, broken from the beard, about 20 centimeters long, the fracture is intact, the aid is arc-shaped, the halberd blade is turned inward, and the appearance is not very similar to the ordinary bronze halberd head, especially this perforated long beard.
In ancient times, bronze halberds generally lengthened their beards in order to increase the perforations, and from the size of the only perforation on this beard, it seems that this halberd should be able to wear at least two or three more holes, but this part is empty, but a strange pattern is carved on the beard.
Seeing Zhou Tongzheng looking at the bronze halberd head, he asked nervously, "How is it, Xiaotong, do you see anything?"
Zhou Tong said cautiously: "I'll take a look." β
Bronze this thing, the market has always been very good, the value is particularly valuable, even some imitation craftsmanship can be sold at a good price, but because of this, the great cottage spirit of the Chinese nation has been brought into play, the bronze market is mixed, fakes emerge endlessly, and it is very messy.
Zhou Tong put on his gloves, carefully picked up the halberd head, took the magnifying glass and looked at it carefully inch by inch, and after ten minutes, he put down the magnifying glass and looked at the upright.
Straightening his heart immediately chuckled, his fat body pressed on the table, and his big round face went straight to Zhou Tong's eyes: "How is it?"
"The rust color is dark green, almost one with the body, the rust is the same depth, and the rust spots are uniform and moist, which is very natural. β
Hearing this, his heart hung up, and he almost knocked off the inkstone on Zhou Tong's desk in excitement, and he looked at Zhou Tong with longing in his eyes: "Yes, yes?"
Zhou Tong didn't answer his question directly, knocked on the halberd head, and was stunned by the buzz, Zhou Tong said: "The sound is clear, the material is uneven, you hold it in your hand and weigh it-Shen?"
He nodded dumbly.
Zhou Tong said: "This rust is too perfect, the color can be so green that it is really uniform, and there is no trace of Hefan, as far as I know, no master in ancient times can have such skills, if you want me to say, it is possible to make a modern machine......
Before Zhou finished speaking, he sat down on the chair with a straight ass, a fat face full of despair, Zhou Tong had long been accustomed to it, and he didn't look at him, playing with the bronze: "How much did you buy this time?"
stretched out his round palm, and flipped it over one by one: "One hundred thousand." β
"I was deceived. Zhou Tong's eyebrows bent, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and the more he looked at the bronze halberd head, the more he felt that the workmanship was exquisite, almost perfect without a trace of flaws, "It's not bad to be a handicraft, and it can still be sold for five hundred yuan." β
Hearing this, he sat on the ground with his butt straight, patted his thighs and wailed again and again: "What five hundred yuan, Lao Tzu is counting on being able to sell his mother for hundreds of thousands." β
"Thinking too much. Zhou Tong said with a smile, "Don't howl, you will lose all my business, and you will not be short of that money." β
"This is different, this is a matter of achievement, just like a good graduate of a prestigious university who has to come to inherit his father's business, the invitation letter from the museum has been sent several times, right?"
Zhou Tong smiled modestly, and his eyebrows and eyes looked particularly docile and modest.
got up from the ground and glanced at the feng shui shop opposite that was "fighting" with Zhou Tong, "The liar next door hasn't been bothering you recently, has he?"
"Nope. Zhou Tong shook his head with a smile.
dun Zheng said: "The next time he troubles you again, you can call me, and my brother will find someone to beat that girl for you." That old man is definitely sick, and seeing that you are handsome, he comes to you all day long to find a sense of saving it?
"He's just a charlatan, my dad exposed him many times when he was alive, and he held a grudge. β
"I see!" said Duanzheng, "I really have to teach him a lesson before he knows why the flowers are so red!"
Shaking his head in a dignified manner, he casually glanced at the bronze halberd head, and immediately made a bitter face with the same disgust as looking at the wrongdoer, and quickly covered his eyes, and said: "Take it! Take it away! You can help me collect that tattered thing and sell it, the reserve price is five hundred yuan, and any more points will be yours!"
"Good. Zhou Tong was amused by his expression, his starry eyes were filled with water, he didn't put the bronze back in the wooden box, and directly found a suitable place on the lattice shelf behind him and put it on.
"Alas......" The more I thought about it, the more unpleasant it became, and the fat man sighed and said, "Xiaotong, why do I carry it like this? Hey, Xiaotong, when are you going to go to the ancient street with me, we'll let the old man take off his pants!"
"My taste is not as heavy as yours, and Sun Laoshao said that he is also eighty years old. The smile on Zhou Tong's face expanded, but his eyes were a little dull, "You know, it's not that I don't want to go with you, it's that I can't go." β
Zhou Tong's body is not good when he is small, he never gets sick, but he often can't lift his spirits, and the whole person is very sleepy. Twelve hours a day was not enough for him to sleep, and he began to feel sleepy at eight o'clock in the evening, slept a little later, and couldn't stay up the next morning after sitting all morning.
For this matter, he saw a lot of doctors, Chinese medicine and Western medicine, barefoot doctors, scientific prescriptions, earth recipes, and even drank the homemade talisman water according to the book, but it was not good at all. The doctors all said that he was born with a weak body, and there was no other way to rest and recuperate.
Knowing Zhou Tong's problem, he didn't force him, sighed, and said: "Next time I go to the ancient street to touch the treasure, I will call you, and let you give me a staff officer, I don't have to look at it myself, the blood (xiΔ) is lost!!"
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly cried out, raised his fingers that were cut by wooden thorns, and looked depressed, "Why are you so unlucky." Xiao Tong, brother will invest in you, can you redecorate the shop again? You see that everything here is almost antique! This broken wooden table, I have scratched it for the third time!
"You're always scratched, and you're born to fight with this table. Zhou Tong handed over a band-aid to Duanzheng, shook his head, and said, "There is no need for decoration, the feng shui in this store was set by my father, and he explained before he died that he must not modify the slightest bit." β
"How can your father be so godly that he can still manage what happens after he dies?" Straightening rolled his eyes, waved his hand, and said with a look of disgust, "If he is really so godly, why did he die suddenly? β
Zhou Tong: "......"
Correctness: "......"
As soon as he said this, he regretted it, he raised his hand and slapped himself, saying, "Bah, my, Xiaotong, I said the wrong thing, don't mind." β
"It's fine. The expression on Zhou Tong's face was faint, and the smile was still not missing at all, "You are right." β
Correctness: "......"
Every time he saw Zhou Tong's expression, he panicked!
Duanzheng chatted with Zhou Tong for a while, and the phone call came in to find him at home, and he twisted his fat body and left.
After leaving, Zhou Tong turned out the "Funeral Sutra" and looked at it before he felt sleepy, and when he was halfway through, the pattern on the beard of the bronze halberd appeared in his mind. Zhou Tong pondered for a while, took the bronze halberd head off the shelf and carried it all the way to the bedroom.
He had never seen that pattern, how could such a superb imitation make such a picture that can be seen at a glance is a forged pattern on it? He originally suspected that it was a manufacturer's LOGO or a specially imitated totem of a certain era, and he took a picture and took it to Baidu to find out after a round of mapping.
At eight o'clock in the evening, sleepiness came up on time, Zhou Tong rubbed his sleepy eyes, stretched his waist and put the bronze halberd head into the box and placed it on the bedside table.
In the dark corner, a pair of evil eyes stared at the window of Zhou Tong's house, the old Taoist held a compass in his hand, the compass was positive, sewn, and in the three needles moved together, a dark cloud shrouded in the compass, the old Taoist put the note with the eight characters of the birthday on the scarecrow's faΓ§ade, threw it into the brazier, and licked the talisman paper with the tongue of fire, and the word "Zhou Tong" was written on it.
Yang Laodao showed an evil smile, his face was full of hatred and was clearly revealed by the firelight, he gritted his teeth and scolded: "I have carefully arranged the feng shui bureau for ten years, and if I didn't kill you Zhou Da, let your son Zhou Tong die for you, back then you hurt me on the streets, everyone shouted and beaten, and now my father and son pay their debts, and it doesn't mean that I found the wrong person!"
In the brazier, sparks burst out and crackled.
When he slept until midnight, Zhou Tongjue was hot all over, his breathing was very difficult, and at this moment it was like being in a sea of fire, the heat was unbearable, but he was trapped in a deep dream and couldn't struggle. His chest rose and fell rapidly, sucking the air greedily, and as time went on, his breathing weakened, and in less than half a minute, he had already taken in less air and more out of breath, and after another half a minute, he was completely out of breath.
The bronze halberd head placed beside him emitted a faint light, and a dark blue shadow emerged from the pattern of the beard, and a wisp of qi coiled around Zhou Tong's body, and the qi lingered on Zhou Tong's face, and drilled into Zhou Tong's nose one by one, and then floated out again as if it was hindered by something.
In the silent air, a voice full of questions suddenly appeared: "Strange, since you are dead, why can't you suck the soul?" he muttered, "I thought I could take a cheap bargain for nothing." The blue qi hovered around Zhou Tong's body for a week and then drilled back into the halberd's head, who would have expected that the qi in the room suddenly rushed towards Zhou Tong's body, like a river flowing into the sea, the momentum was surging, and even the blue qi was brought into Zhou Tong's body.
Blue Air: "..................??!!!!"
