Chapter 413: Little Hidden in the Wild
In the evening, the mountains and forests were extremely cold, even though the sky was shining with the light of the morning light, it still made Zhao Ming gasp at this time.
The two eyes of the Taoist priest were deeply marked on the contours of his eyes.
With a long sigh, the Taoist priest was like a broken bright moon, and he completely did it from the hunched waist, but it was this calm demeanor that scared Zhao Ming back.
"Are you looking for me?" Zhao Mingbu was shocked by the doubts in his heart, and asked weakly, which caused this blind Taoist priest.
The blind Taoist priest just snorted coldly and walked out of the side of the Daoguan trail, Lu Mingle was waiting anxiously, and saw the Taoist priest walking out directly, and Zhao Ming, who was still following behind him, was also at a loss.
"What's going on? Why did you bring a blind Taoist priest out? What the hell are you doing?"
Zhao Ming waved his hand and didn't speak, as if telling me that I didn't know.
The Taoist priest took Zhao Ming and Lu Ming, and once again felt the place where Ye Shuang had gathered just now.
But I found that Ye Shuang had already disappeared at this time, but there were these two black shadows, which suddenly fell from the cliff at the foot of the mountain like a July meteor, and the rapid movement caught people off guard.
The sharp blade in his hand, the straight long knife was glowing with cold light, but the Taoist priest had a handful of blades made of bamboo on his waist at some point.
The blades spun rapidly in the air, and the two Assassins fell straight to the ground.
"This?" Lu Ming also looked a little dazed, if you want to talk about the assassin's skills and movements, even Ye Shuang has to admire three points.
Such a rapid speed has become so unbearable in front of the blind Taoist priest in front of him.
Zhao Ming couldn't help but glance back, but the honest old monk disappeared at this time.
Only the large willow tree behind him was left, teetering with his long wicker.
The blind Taoist priest slowly walked in front of the two black-clothed assassins, and said calmly to Zhao Ming, "I am entrusted by others to protect you thoroughly, be careful in everything!"
After hearing this, Lu Ming's whole person became comfortable, "Okay, it turns out that he is protecting us thoroughly, and it doesn't matter who he is entrusted with, anyway, the danger is lifted." ”
"Don't hurry up first, how dangerous is this way?" said the old man meaningfully, and Zhao Ming on the side was a little anxious, "This is not good, my friend is still waiting for me." ”
A dim light shot out of Lao Dao's eyes, "If I say no, I can't do it, if you don't listen to me, it's a dead end." ”
Lao Dao said extremely fiercely, and Lu Ming didn't dare to speak at this time, because he had seen Lao Dao's skills just now, well, he just escaped from the tiger's mouth and entered the wolf's den.
Lao Dao brought Lu Ming and Zhao Ming back to the wooden house, although the wooden house was a little shabby, and the walls were also hung with some tattered calligraphy and paintings.
There was a teapot on the table, and there were just three cups of hot tea poured into the teapot, it seemed that he was an old man, and he had the intention to bring himself here, Zhao Ming couldn't help but secretly said in his heart.
Lao Dao handed the hot tea to Zhao Ming and Lu Ming, and Lu Ming's newcomer took the purple sand pot of hot tea from the plate and drank it directly without hesitation.
Zhao Ming also wanted to dissuade him, in case there was poison in this tea, Lu Ming would probably die.
Lu Ming was very relieved, picked up the cup and drank it all, Zhao Ming sighed heavily, and Lao Dao smiled with relief at this time, this kind of smile actually lifted the dull atmosphere around here.
"The two little friends must have been on the road for a long time, and it is good to rest and rest when they come to my humble house to drink tea, but what I want to ask is ......"
Zhao Ming also sat comfortably on the bamboo chair next to him at this time, this kind of bamboo chair is similar to the appearance of the Taishi chair, and it can be shaken back and forth.
Zhao Ming didn't interrupt Lao Dao's speech, Lao Dao continued to elaborate, "What I want to ask is, are you in the antique business?"
Lu Ming nodded, and said very confidently, "Of course, we must be in the antique business, and we are doing it well."
You, you still have to learn from us. Lu Ming's words were not modest at all, but made Zhao Ming feel a lot of pressure.
Obviously, he didn't do much business, he just resold some shareholders and ate with his mouth.
Lao Dao smiled with satisfaction, "Speaking of the antique industry, I believe you are more familiar with it than me.
Take the Tang Dynasty as an example, if it is a bronze of the Qin Dynasty, it is called an antique in the Tang Dynasty, and some Tang poems from the Tang Dynasty are portrayed into calligraphy and paintings, which are very worthless in the Tang Dynasty.
Of course, we caught up with a good period, and now, as long as it is not something of our time, it is called an antique, and it can be sold at a good price. ”
Lu Ming hurriedly added, "Of course we know this, in ancient times, there were pawnshops and the like, and some antique dealers.
These antique dealers have walked through the streets and alleys, and have walked through the north and south of the river, and have obtained some good treasures from some pawnshops, and if they are sold, they can always be sold at a good price. ”
"What about you, you are also in the antique business like this little friend?" Lao Dao looked at Zhao Ming intently, and Zhao Ming smiled bitterly.
"I, I'm messing around with this little friend!" Zhao Ming glanced at Lu Ming provocatively, Lu Ming laughed, this was the first time Zhao Ming admitted that he was inferior to himself.
Lu Ming played with some simple antiques in the cabin, looking at these antiques was really pitiful.
These antiques are not antiques at all, and some texture aspects alone are far from enough, to put it bluntly, you give it to others, and others may not necessarily want it.
Lu Ming belittled some of the antiques in the old log cabin, and praised his antique road freely.
Lao Dao is modest, "I haven't been in business for a long time, and I can't make a name for myself, unlike you, who can make good use of resources as soon as they come out."
But I have a few antiques here, but there are quite a few big bosses who often come over to play with them. ”
Zhao Ming asked suspiciously, "Since there will be a big boss coming to patronize, why don't you open an antique shop?" Or why don't you put some expensive antiques in this small wooden house." ”
Could it be that the protective measures are not very good, there is no monitoring or anything, Zhao Ming looks around the structure is extremely simple.
It's so simple that even the porter is a wooden bolt, and it is easiest to say that the theft of antiques in this small wooden house is the easiest.
"It's hard to put it into words, this antique business is also sluggish, especially when some antiques are taken out in this year, people don't dare to accept them. "The old way is unfounded.
Lu Ming laughed, "Then you have any antiques, take them out, and I will take them all." ”
Lao Dao sighed and asked, "Do you dare to ask for the bronzes of the Warring States Period?" ”
As soon as he heard that it was from the Warring States Period, Zhao Ming couldn't help but snort coldly, that kind of bronze, how can you get it without tens of millions.
The intents said, didn't Lu Ming get a bronze tripod recently?
Zhao Ming probably understood in his heart, the antique business done by this old way is really not small, as the saying goes, the big is hidden in the market, and the small is hidden in the wild.
The real master of the world really does not live in the bazaar, he pays attention to self-cultivation, drinking tea and drinking water, no silk and bamboo, no troubled ears, no case work.
Zhao Ming looked at this old man carefully, the old man was a thin man, and he didn't show his teeth when he smiled, although he was blind.
But his other blind eye, like a clairvoyant eye, looks at you better than with it open.
Lao Dao has always talked about the antique business, but I haven't seen a real antique collection come out until now.
Lao Dao's thoughtful appearance can't help but make people suspect that he doesn't have a word of truth, of course, Zhao Ming still thinks that seeing is believing, after all, he wants to see if he can come up with something.
Lao Dao opened the cellar door of the cabin at this time, and this behavior attracted Lu Ming's attention, and Lu Ming said happily.
"I'll just say, there must be treasures in this old way, and it's impossible to fool people with these few cups of soaked tea. ”
Lu Ming patted his chest at Zhao Ming, he almost couldn't avoid Lu Ming, to be honest, Lu Ming really has some power?
Zhao Ming scolded Lu Ming with a smile, "You guy didn't know who it was just now, I felt that this place was dilapidated, now it's okay, just open the wooden door of a cellar, you just say so."
In case there are no antiques in this cellar that you want, you have to scold your father and mother!"
Lu Ming didn't care what Zhao Ming said, he didn't believe that this old way had been fooling for a long time, and he couldn't take anything out, Lu Ming whistled happily, and happily followed the old way down the cellar
After going down to the cellar, you will see some newly paved mud-yellow dirt roads, and there are several jars of wine in them, but some of them are huge, and the tallest jars are half a meter high.
Unexpectedly, this old man is still a greedy person, Lu Ming smelled the aroma of wine, and walked along the wine jar, and the rich aroma of wine spread in the air.
Lu Ming unconsciously lifted the red cloth cover on the wine jar, and a finger went directly into the wine jar, dipping a drop of wine on his tongue.
"Ahh It's a terrible wine. Lu Ming had a bitter look on his face, and the old Taoist priest next to him smiled, "It's not wine, it's alcohol, you guy!"
After Lu Ming heard that it was alcohol, his whole face turned blue, "Damn, Lao Tzu drinks industrial alcohol." ”
Zhao Ming smiled faintly, "No, you are not drinking industrial alcohol, you are drinking medical alcohol."
This alcohol can be disinfected, but most can also remove some dust from antiques. ”
Lu Ming didn't know what to say, but kept cleaning his tongue, only to see that the old Taoist priest walked to a wooden shelf at this time, and there was a bronze iron box directly above the wooden shelf.
The old Taoist priest pressed the bricks on the wall, and suddenly the wall began to move, and a stone wall brick like a drawer ejected out of the gap in the stone wall.
Lao Dao took out a bunch of bronze keys from the recessed part of the drawer, walked to the bronze box, and inserted the bronze key into the bronze box.
It's just that after tinkering for a long time, the bronze box couldn't be opened, and the Taoist priest was bitter and smiled, "You see that the alcohol is used at this time." ”
The old Taoist priest walked to the wine jar, took some medical alcohol from it with a wooden spoon and sprinkled it on the bronze lock, and soon some green patina on the bronze lock fell directly in the air.
Lao Dao unlocked it carefully, and said while unlocking, "In this case, you have to be more careful, in case no one locks this bronze lock."
Directly break this half of the bronze lock in this bronze box, that is a bigger waste. ”
Zhao Ming was a little puzzled, "Wouldn't it be good to pull it out directly?" Old Dao's cold gaze revealed a shrewdness.
"That's not good, once the key of this bronze lock is broken in the cylinder of the bronze lock, there is no way to take it out, and taking it out will definitely cause serious damage to this bronze lock.
You must know that this is also an antique, and after being stored for a long time, this bronze lock will lose its meaning, because the metal inside will merge. ”
As the old Taoist priest spoke, he carefully inserted his bronze key into it.
Just when Zhao Ming and Lu Ming almost mistakenly thought that the bronze lock key was broken inside the lock, they heard a "bang" sound.
