Chapter 169: Falling Neck (Xin)

Liao Huansheng walked out of the market, walked a few steps forward, found a shop casually, pushed the door in, and put the silver hairpin and syringe in front of the guy. The pen fun pavilion www.biquge.info man looked at things, looked at him again, and told Liao Huansheng that this silver jewelry should be something in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, it is pure silver, yes, but this style is very ordinary, there are many on the market, and the preservation is not too good, it is not worth too much money, and two pieces of nine hundred yuan are the most.

Liao Huansheng shook his head, opened the syringe, and showed the deer character on the inner tank to the guy, and slowly told him about the ups and downs of the life of Lu Chuanlin, the last minister of the late Qing Dynasty, as well as his achievements in the Westernization Movement, agricultural technology improvement and education construction, and told the guy that he could confirm that this thing was a set of dowry specially created by the Lu family when they married a little girl.

The guy obviously didn't expect Liao Huansheng to tell him such a big set, he was a little skeptical, he took those two things and looked at them over and over for a long time, gritted his teeth, and said to Liao Huansheng that he would give a maximum of one thousand and five, even if it is a famous thing, it still depends on the value of the thing itself, right?

Liao Huansheng smiled, picked up the two things, and told the guy, isn't the value of antiques just to look at the story behind it? After speaking, he took the things and walked out, in fact, when he said that, he was also a little hesitant, the two things can already earn more than 700 yuan, just two days, two more trips, this deal is cost-effective. But his intuition told him to hold on, and this thing was not to be sold.

Sure enough, as soon as Liao Huansheng walked to the door, a voice sounded behind him, this gentleman, don't be busy, let's discuss the price. Liao Huansheng and the shopkeeper didn't talk about the price, but they chatted for a long time about Lu Chuanlin's life and achievements, so that both of them later sighed that the world makes people, and it is difficult to disobey the destiny of heaven. The shopkeeper finally accepted this thing for 2,000 yuan, and also told Liao Huansheng that if there are good things, they can be sent here, and if there is nothing to sell, they can come over to chat and drink tea.

Although Liao Huansheng only earned more than 1,000 yuan in his first pot of gold, he still enjoyed the pleasure of buying in the bookstore, and slowly got acquainted with a group of antique dealers who went to Beijing through the stall owner of Panjiayuan. And he also got to know some of the owners of antique shops. Coming and going, antique dealers like to take things to Liao Huansheng first, it doesn't matter if you buy it or not, at least you can increase your knowledge and increase your knowledge.

And when everything arrived at Liao Huansheng, he put it next to the pottery pillow, and used the pottery pillow to take himself into those lost eras. Of course, Liao Huansheng will also encounter a large number of fakes, and in his dreams, Liao Huansheng can easily distinguish the age of the fakes, the process of counterfeiting, and even the location of the production. Within a few months, Liao Huansheng's name had gradually become louder in Panjiayuan, but no one knew Tao Pillow, and no one knew how Liao Huansheng distinguished the authenticity.

Liao Huansheng is a real person, and he doesn't charge any remuneration for showing things to the cultural relics dealers, but just asks to stay there for one night. I never do things that are obviously true, say that they are false, and take the opportunity to buy them at a low price. What it is, give whatever price you have, as long as you make money, you will shoot, there is no greed. After a long time, the people in the circle have also become accustomed to his seemingly unfair request, and have accumulated a reputation for integrity. And Liao Huansheng also gained a wealth of knowledge of cultural play in the process, but he never regarded this as his main business, although many people asked him to cooperate, but he had no interest in this at all, so he politely declined.

In this process, Liao Huansheng also explored some characteristics of Tao Pillow Dream, such as not putting too far away the things to be identified, not putting two things at the same time, and not dreaming on days of heavy rain, snow and wind. It is actually a very troublesome thing to identify the dynasty of the utensils, and he must judge according to the style of the building, the characteristics of the clothing of the people at that time, and the dialogues of some people in his dreams. After a long time, his ability to distinguish many common things on the stall with experience became stronger and stronger, and later, he rarely used Tao Pillow, which lasted until he met Feng but knew us.

I have to say that Liao Huansheng's story is one of the weirdest stories I have ever heard, his pottery pillow has become something similar to a spirit medium, or even a Xuanmen, but it is not dangerous. I couldn't help but interrupt his narration and asked, "Does this pillow work for other people, have you tried it?"

Liao Huansheng took a big sip of tea, and didn't seem to have woken up from the state of the statement just now, he was stunned for a long time, and shook his head at me, "My daughter-in-law and children have tried, and they have let go of a lot of things, and they can't dream of anything." After listening to his words, I nodded, it seems to be similar to what I thought, this pottery pillow is only one aspect, it is like a musical instrument, the key is still in people, you don't know how to play, or you can't make beautiful music.

"Lao Liao, then I don't understand, it sounds like you're a coincidence, and you've reached a realm that many people in the literary and entertainment circle can't reach in a lifetime, to put it mildly, with your ability, it's too easy to make some money, sleep and dream, and the thing will be identified, what else do you have to worry about, you can't sleep all night, and you have to run to Lao Chang to endure it?"

Liao Huansheng smiled bitterly, straightened up slightly in the sofa, and said slowly: "I'm not greedy, I just want to live a good life in this acre and three points of land, and I don't want to cause some trouble for no reason because of this ability. But in recent months, I'm a little afraid to use this pottery pillow, and if it's not a particularly good friend, I'll push it off. ”

As soon as Liao Huansheng spoke, I probably guessed the secret, so I casually answered: "Did you start dreaming about things that have nothing to do with the things you want to identify?"

Liao Huansheng glanced at me in surprise and said, "Often, the first time I saw you, I felt that you were not a mortal, what you said was right, even if it is related to the identification of things, you will encounter some very evil things in your dreams." ”

Liao Huansheng may be because he is a teacher and has done research work, he is very good at summarizing, he summarized the dreams he had during this period into four stages, the first stage is that it is similar to the original dream, he entered the era where the artifact is located, and also met people related to the artifact, but he found that many dreams have changed from the original color to black and white, like watching an old movie, and later, even the sound can not be heard.

In the second stage, Liao Huansheng felt that his dream was very long, as if it would never end, he had been watching from the side, watching silently, even if he had nothing to do with the artifact, he couldn't wake up, he wanted to break free, hoping to wake up as soon as possible, but it didn't work at all. From this stage onwards, Liao Huansheng will feel very tired, his limbs will be weak, and he will feel like he has not slept all night after waking up.

In the third stage, Liao Huansheng began to interact with his dreams and was no longer a bystander. The beginning of this phase begins with a brass incense burner. Liao Huansheng entered the main hall of a temple in that dream, and the hall was empty, the brass incense burner was placed on the offering table, and the statue in front of the offering table was not common, it seemed to have nine heads, all of them were toothless and disgusting, a little hideous, and all the eyes seemed to be staring at Liao Huansheng, which made him shudder a little. Liao Huansheng walked to the offering table, looked at the incense burner carefully, and wondered which dynasty this was? Suddenly, a voice behind him sounded like thunder, "Come to the temple, why don't you worship?"

Liao Huansheng turned around in fright, and an old Taoist priest in a plain robe and immortal wind bones stared at him intently. This is the first time that Liao Huansheng has been recognized by the person in the dream after having countless dreams, and a kind of thief-like nervousness makes him forget what he said to the old Taoist priest and how he woke up. But Liao Huansheng always felt that he knew that Taoist priest, but he couldn't remember whether he had met him before, or if he was about to meet soon, but after that time, everyone in his dream could see him and could talk to him, and when Liao Huansheng was trying to adapt to this stage, new problems appeared.

Soon, Liao Huansheng entered the fourth stage, this stage as I guessed, he began to dream of some things that had nothing to do with the things identified, and most of these things were gray and terrifying, there were bloody killings, there were terrifying evil gods, there were endless graves, there were narrow and dark tombs, and there were a series of conspiracies and calculations, sometimes there was not even a figure, just banished him to the wilderness, and Liao Huansheng couldn't figure out what the meaning of this dream was, and what he could do in this dream。

After the appearance of the fourth stage, Liao Huansheng could feel that he couldn't even control his dreams, just like there were many people staring at him in the dark, and it was like his limbs were being tied to ropes, the top of his head, a place that could not be seen, I don't know who was controlling his body with a few thin sticks. Although this only appears in Liao Huansheng's dream, after all, one-third of his life no longer belongs to him, and this feeling is desperate. And never knowing what awaits you in front of you, and having to be pushed into the darkness by fate, hastened the collapse of a person.

(Turning a blind eye is called Yi; hearing it is not heard, it is called Xi; if it can't be beaten, it is called a small name.) These three cannot be interrogated, so they are mixed into one. There is no rope on it, there is no ambiguity under it, the rope is indescribable, and it returns to nothing. It is said to be formless, the image of nothing, and it is said to be trance. The first one is missing, and then the one is gone. The way of the ancients is to keep the present. Being able to know the beginning of the ancient times is the Taoist era. --Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching) (To be continued.) )
