Chapter 443: A Strange Scent
Xu Dong didn't say the reason, beckoned to Zhang Juncheng and said, "Brother Zhang, in addition to water and flashlights, are there any knives or sharper tools?" ”
Although Zhang Juncheng was a little worried that Xu Dong would break his aunt's necklace, he still nodded: "Yes!" ”
Then he said to Aunt Jiu: "We still have to be sharper...... Tool ......"
Here, Qiao Yanxue flipped her hand, but handed a Swiss army knife to Xu Dong.
Grandma Jiu said in a deep voice: "I said, even if you give eight million to this necklace, I will not sell it, but if you damage it, then you will have to compensate according to the price......"
Xu Dong took the Swiss Army knife, smiled, and said lightly: "If it is damaged, my aunt's things, of course I can only compensate for the full price, hehe, when the time comes, Aunt Jiu's grandmother will ask for the price, and I will definitely not have half a point of prevarication." ”
As he spoke, Xu Dong opened the "needle" on the Swiss Army knife and carefully used the tip of the needle to pry at the pendant vine.
The pendant resembles a flat gourd bottle with vines at the mouth of the bottle, which at first glance looks like a solid one.
However, after Xu Dong pried it with a "needle", a little trace was suddenly revealed at the tip of the bottle, and then he pried it out, and suddenly pried out a chopstick-like size, connected to the "stopper" of vines, but the stopper is the same as the color of the jade bottle, it should be glued with gelatin and other things, and after polishing, it looks like it is solid from the outside, and there are no traces of the stopper and the bottle body at all!
Grandma Jiu bought this pendant jade bottle, and it was only half a year, and besides, Grandma Jiu was a half-hanger about these things, so naturally she never paid close attention to this thing, and she didn't understand that there was a little secret in it.
I never thought that my pendant bottle still had such a secret, but how did Zhu Xudong know? Is there something else hidden in the bottle?
In fact, Xu Dong can know the secret of this gourd jade bottle, or because of the pair of gloves in Xu Dong's hand, that pair of gloves is worn on Xu Dong's hand, which makes Xu Dong have incomparable sensitivity in touch.
Therefore, at this time, Xu Dong said to Grandma Jiu again: "Grandma Jiu, I want a glass of water!" ”
Aunt Jiu was obviously suppressed by the secret discovered by Xu Dong, this thing, but it was worn around her neck, and she didn't find out that there was such a secret for half a year, but Xu Dong found it, and it was obviously discovered in a short period of time, Xu Dong couldn't see it, even if he saw it occasionally, how could he find the secret in it?
Aunt Jiu was still in a daze, but Qiao Yanxue quickly filled a glass of water with a glass, and the water dispenser was not far behind her, and the mineral water in it was definitely "clear water"!
Xu Dong thanked Qiao Yanxue with a smile, took the water, took the jade gourd in his left hand, turned the bottle mouth up, held the water cup in his right hand, and slowly poured water into the mouth.
It's just that the mouth is too small, and it needs to be poured very slowly and finely, and it took several minutes to fill the jade bottle, and then put down the water cup, turned his head and said to Zhang Juncheng: "Brother Zhang, I want a flashlight!" ”
Zhang Juncheng answered, but turned his head to ask Grandma Jiu for a flashlight, Grandma Jiu was shocked, and couldn't remember where the flashlight was placed for a while.
Fortunately, Mu Siqing and Qiao Yanxue's brains turned quickly, looking for a plug and a charger, and they tossed for more than ten minutes before handing over the flashlight to Xu Dong.
Xu Dong turned on the flashlight and aimed it at the mouth of the gourd, and the light in the middle shot into the small bottle mouth, and at this time, the others found that there was a miracle!
From the bottom of the bottle, a ray of blue light shined, like looking at the clear sky under the water, blue and blue, and still swaying.
What surprised everyone was not that the bottle showed blue light, but that there seemed to be some patterns and handwriting in the blue light, but the light seemed to be a little weak, and it was shaking, and it was not clear to see.
"Interior painting...... Micro-carving ......" Qiao Yanxue, who knew a little bit about cultural relics, suddenly shouted.
Although it is not clear what is contained in the shaking painting, it is clear that it is definitely a miniature carving carved inside the gourd using the technique of inner painting.
"Interior painting...... The miniature carving ...... "Grandma Jiu, even if she is a half-hanger, knows these four words, the gold content of the two techniques, not to mention what the painting in it is, just by virtue of the combination of these two techniques, the value of this small gourd bottle is already immeasurable."
In addition to being shocked, Aunt Jiu was also pleasantly surprised, this is really the most valuable thing in this room!
At that moment, Grandma Jiu asked for the gourd bottle back from Xu Dong's hand, shook it twice, threw out the water inside, and then stuffed the plug back, as for the inner painting of this miniature carving, what is the content, Grandma Jiu Gu does not plan to let Xu Dong and others know clearly.
Anyway, the method of opening the gourd, Grandma Jiu knows it, and she wants to inspect the inner paintings and miniature carvings inside, and Grandma Jiu has also witnessed it with her own eyes, so such a good thing, whether it is appreciated or inspected, there is no need for Xu Dong and them to continue to look at it.
After packing up the gourd bottle, Aunt Jiu smiled: "Your eyesight is good!" ”
"You've got good eyesight!" Grandma Jiu commented on Xu Dong like this, and then she re-served tea to Xu Dong and others.
Xu Dong took a sip of tea, and then asked, "Grandma Jiu, I heard that someone is sick next to you, can you tell me some details?" ”
Grandma Jiu sighed and said, "Actually, when it comes to this matter, I really don't have a good time talking about it, but this thing is also very strange......
Aunt Jiu said that the old man Zhu of their family also likes to engage in these antiques and antiques on weekdays, not long ago, I saw a small blue and white porcelain jar on the street, and bought it back.
"In the first few days, Lao Zhu had nightmares every night, as soon as he closed his eyes, he began to yell and make noise, we went to the doctor and took some sedatives, but it didn't work at all, and the more I took the medicine, the more severe Lao Zhu's situation became......"
Grandma Jiu sighed, and then said: "You should know that Lao Zhu's current status and current form, if Lao Zhu is hospitalized and his condition is made public, I am afraid that it will be very difficult for him to return to that position in the future, so we will try our best to suppress this matter and dare not make it too public." ”
Hearing what Aunt Jiu said, Xu Dong was very disapproving, in Lao Zhu's position, he took too much from others, and in the end he had to be cautious, and even when he was sick, he didn't dare to disclose his illness, hum, such an official deserves it.
"The hospital couldn't cure it, we found a few high-ranking people in private, and they all said that they had hit the evil and tossed for several days, but they ...... Hmph......" Aunt Jiu snorted in her nose: "I won't be heartbroken about the money, but you also have to have real skills to get it, right?" ”
Xu Dong nodded, no matter what line of work or industry, if you have that ability, you will get that reward, of course this is not bad, it seems that Aunt Jiu is still a very reasonable kind of person.
"Aunt Jiu, can I take a look at that jar?" Xu Dong asked.
Grandma Jiu nodded, stood up, and went to the inner room to get the jar out, but after opening the inner door, Xu Dong's face suddenly changed slightly.
"How...... You see it...... Things ......" Zhang Juncheng watched Xu Dong's face change color, he couldn't help but be happy and worried, and when he was excited, he stammered a little: "I'll take it...... What the hell is that...... Mom pulls a...... Xiao Xu ...... Can you handle ......?"
Xu Dong couldn't help but smile, there was something, Xu Dong didn't see it, he just smelled a smell, a very light smell, this smell, not only Xu Dong smelled it, Qiao Yanxue also smelled it.
The smell is faint, a little fragrant, but it is definitely not a household perfume, incense or anything like that, it is a slightly fishy aroma, I can't tell what it is.
Hearing Xu Dong say this, Zhang Juncheng stirred his nose and inhaled a few times, but he couldn't help shaking his head and said, "Mom, why can't I smell this nose?" ”
Hearing that there was such a strange fragrance, Mu Siqing also sniffed it carefully for a while, but Mu Siqing also shook his head and didn't smell it!
Qiao Yanxue looked at Xu Dong and pondered for a moment before she said, "Xu Dong, do you remember the first time we went to that place, the smell there?" ”
The first time I went to the place with Qiao Yanxue, it was the treasure trove of the Ma warlord, and there was indeed some smell in it, in addition to the musty smell, there was also a fishy smell, the fishy smell of centipedes, of course Xu Dong remembered, but this fishy smell was similar to that fishy smell, but the fragrance was different, centipedes would not have a fragrance.
At this time, Grandma Jiu also took out the jar, put it on the coffee table, and said: "Originally, I also wanted to throw away this thing, but you know, if there is really something dirty attached to it, even if I throw it, it will be useless......
The jar that Grandma Jiu took out was not big, the whole thing was a few circles smaller than a fist, and it was said to be a "jar", but it was better to say that it was a "jar"-shaped bottle.
The texture is blue and white, but Xu Dong can see that from the perspective of antique value, it is not worth much, at least, in Xu Dong's eyes.
However, what makes Xu Dong feel a little strange is that it is estimated that the problem of Lao Zhu of Grandma Jiu's family may really be due to this bottle, because as soon as this bottle comes out, the fishy aroma is much stronger.
So much so that Xu Dong suddenly felt a little excited.
It's like the excitement of a mouse seeing rice, a dog seeing a bone, and a wolf seeing meat.
But the strange thing is that Xu Dong clearly knows that this is not from his own instinct and intention, and this excitement seems to be forcibly restrained and stimulated by a strange force.
