Chapter 2 The Big Jar of Black Paint
The breeze is coming, the water is not exciting, Liu Sheng is busy sitting under the faint green willow with a fishing rod and learning to fish, the small pond has long been surrounded by people, the inextricable temptation makes the fish a little more hesitant, not biting the hook for a long time, Liu Sheng can't help but feel a little sad in his heart.
"Hey, boy, Lord Ben helped you complete the college entrance examination, and you actually came here to fish, what did you promise?" Liu Sheng's inaction, the Demon Mirror Instrument Spirit had been waiting impatiently for a long time, and kept roaring in his sea of consciousness.
"Ugh." Putting down the fishing rod, Liu Sheng sighed heavily, he is a trustworthy person, but the reality is cruel, a penny is difficult to defeat a hero, how can the three students in the family have spare money for him to appreciate Ya play, so he can only be silent.
"What are you sighing about?" The Demon Mirror Instrument Spirit couldn't help but ask suspiciously.
"Don't you see what's going on in my house?" Liu Sheng shook his head secretly, looking at the Demon Mirror Spirit's request, he couldn't help it now.
"Stupid, with me, are you still afraid of slapping your eyes, and you can't pick up the leak, do you know what it means to fight big with small?" The spirit of the demon mirror jumped up and down in Liu Sheng's sea of consciousness, looking like he hated iron but not steel.
"It's really fake, you said to give me a pair of eyes that can see through the essence, why do I find that it is still the same as before?" In addition to the college entrance examination, the demon mirror machine spirit helped him get a good score in the exam, and his performance after that was very unreliable, which made Liu Sheng have great doubts.
"Nonsense, do you think the eye is so easy to open? Without Baoguang, this machine spirit can't do anything other than help you cheat? The Demon Mirror Machine Spirit said angrily.
"It turned out to be a silver-like pewter head." Liu Sheng muttered secretly.
"What did you say?" Suddenly, he was so angry that the demon mirror spirit blew to half of Mount Meru.
"Ha Luha, the weather is good today, and tomorrow is just going to the Pingcheng antique market for a turn." Looking at the aura of the Demon Mirror Instrument, Liu Sheng left his words and he took care of it, and he was deeply able to transfer the essence of Dafa.
"Hmph."
······
Pingcheng antique market Liu Sheng rarely came, except for the last time the ghost sent the god to come to buy the demon mirror machine spirit this is the second time in his life. Although he likes antiques very much, CCTV's "Treasure Hunting" program also pays attention, but the ticket in his hand is not powerful, the most important thing is that there are some cheating goods among the antiques, no matter whether they are good or bad, they can only stare dryly.
"You can't do it." Liu Sheng asked impatiently.
The location of the village is relatively remote, only the No. 12 bus can lead to the county seat, obviously some shops bully customers, Liu Sheng hurried to catch up with about 10 o'clock to arrive at the Pingcheng antique market, turned most of the market, the sun was a little anxious, wiped the sweat on his face, saw that the demon mirror machine spirit did not react, Liu Sheng began to complain.
"Don't worry, isn't this what you're looking for?" The demon mirror machine spirit said perfunctorily.
"Then hurry up." Liu Sheng said angrily.
"You have to give someone some time." The Demon Mirror muttered writhingly.
Liu Sheng pretended not to hear, and kept pointing out the messy antiques on the stalls along the road, quite a bit of a point to the country, if anyone can hear what he said, they will know that the road is ruined, for antiques he is seven tricks through six tricks, even CCTV's "Treasure Hunt" program did not smoke out a reason.
"Boy, don't talk nonsense, the kindergarten children are going to be scared to cry by you." The Demon Mirror Instrument Spirit really couldn't stand Liu Sheng's broken thoughts, and he jumped out coldly and shouted in his sea of knowledge.
"Don't bother me." Liu Sheng seemed to be getting better, and with a wave of his hand in annoyance, he rudely interrupted the Demon Mirror Spirit.
"Don't you want it, baby?" The old god of the demon mirror said on the ground.
"Ah, where's the baby?" Liu Sheng immediately came back to his senses, looking around and feeling that everything was a rare treasure, and then he felt that there was an obvious gap between it and reality, and there was a fog in front of him.
"At ten o'clock, a pair of large black bottles." The corners of the Demon Mirror Spirit's mouth curled up as he spoke, and his smug expression was overflowing.
"Black lacquer bottle?" Liu Sheng saw clearly the treasure pointed out by the demon mirror and immediately hesitated.
The black lacquer bottle first began in the late 60s of the 20th century, when people used black paint to protect the treasure in their hands, and it was only at the end of the 80s that this dusty history began to be opened. Nearly 20 years across the death of some of the old people in the family, the secret was drowned in the long river of history, black lacquer jars appeared in the antique market with the rise of collections, but at the beginning it was still a surprise, but now it is synonymous with the pit father, except for some extremely experienced collectors, not many people are willing to touch.
"Yes, that's it." The excited Demon Mirror Machine Spirit didn't hear Liu Sheng's hesitation, and still urged him to buy the pair of bottles.
"You're going to let me buy this pair of guys?" Liu Sheng took a closer look and was immediately angry.
It turned out that this pair of large bottles with a similar shape to the jade pot spring bottle were not completely covered by black paint, and the black paint was artificially removed from the bottom of the circle, revealing mottled flint red, but even rookies can see that it is a deliberately old inferior performance, no wonder no one cares.
"Oh, by the way, your eyes haven't been opened yet, so you can't see it." The spirit of the demon mirror suddenly patted his head and couldn't help but be annoyed, his performance was really a blind man lighting the lamp in vain.
"Why don't you open it soon?" Liu Sheng urged anxiously.
"Okay, but it's only temporary, and you won't be able to officially open it until you absorb enough treasure light." The Demon Mirror Instrument Spirit was helpless, it had to return to Heaven through Liu Sheng, and it had to make compromises.
"Huh?" Liu Sheng suddenly felt that the surrounding environment had changed, and a thick white mist was shrouded in front of him, and the noisy sound was also hidden, and he couldn't help but tremble.
"Be careful, don't close your eyes." This was the Demon Mirror Instrument Spirit shouting in Liu Sheng's ear, and then two purple rays of light shot into his eyes through the mist.
"This?" Liu Sheng rubbed his somewhat sore eyes, and the noisy sounds around him were again, but there were many changes in front of his eyes, the antiques on the stalls were filled with halos, and countless people's images flashed in Liu Sheng's mind like a movie, there were modern people, there were ancients, men and women, old and young, rich and poor, with different expressions, sometimes clear and sometimes blurred.
"These scenes record the birth of a work of art, with clear descriptions of the painstaking effort, vague descriptions of the author's graffiti, and circles of light representing the age of the object. Later you will get used to it. The Demon Mirror Instrument Spirit seemed to know what Liu Sheng wanted to ask, and began to explain before he could ask. Now you concentrate on the two large black lacquer bottles. ”
"How so?" Liu Sheng suddenly exclaimed.
He looked intently at the two black lacquer bottles, and there were several halos of other colors hidden under the two faint red halos, the earliest was stained with a faint blue, and countless figures were intertwined, mostly by the ancients, constantly playing back in front of Liu Sheng's eyes, faster and faster, and after the most obstacles, Liu Sheng found that the bottom of the two black lacquer jars was actually hollow, and there were several exquisite ancient coins hidden in each space.
"Hehe, I forgot to tell you that the eyes can see through all the falsehoods, of course, perspective is trivial." Looking at Liu Sheng's surprised appearance, it seemed that the demon mirror machine spirit was very proud.
"Boss, how much do these two black paint cans cost?" Liu Sheng ignored the smug look of the demon mirror and asked directly about the price.
"Hehe, this little brother, you are really good-looking, these two black lacquer cans were finally exchanged for them from the countryside, and they just came out today, as long as you can take them for two thousand yuan." The stall owner was a short and sturdy little man, and when he heard this, his eyes flashed, and he began to flicker.
"Two thousand yuan, boss, you and I are a mallet, this is a typical red." Liu Sheng frowned, carefully put down the black lacquer jar, pointed to the flint red at the bottom, and said.
"I didn't expect the little brother to be an expert, take a gamble, if it is Republic of China porcelain, you will also earn it, and give a thousand yuan to mean it." The short and sturdy man didn't feel embarrassed at all, and complimented Liu Sheng.
"Boss, to be honest, I also want to gamble, but I only have two hundred yuan on me, if you want, we will trade, otherwise we can only cooperate next time." Liu Sheng turned over all the pockets on his body, and only took out two hundred-yuan bills and a few yuan change bills to show the stall owner.
"Okay, it's only two hundred yuan, who let me and my little brother hit it off at first sight?" After hesitating for a long time, the stall owner slapped his thigh and said fiercely.
"Then Brother Xie Luxie, next time you have any needs, I will come to you directly." Liu Sheng is also a master of snakes and sticks, put down the big stone in his heart, and shook it out as if he didn't want money complimentally.
"Brother is just refreshing, come and I'll wrap it for you." The stall owner said it well, but in his heart he kept secretly scolding Liu Sheng for being a mallet and actually buying a pair of low-imitation porcelain.
"It's really Brother Xie Luxi, I still have to leave my relatives, let's see you back." Liu Sheng happily took the gift box and said goodbye to the stall owner.
"See you soon."
"Don't say anything, go to my aunt's house." Liu Sheng, who disappeared into the crowd in three or two turns, immediately stopped the demon mirror spirit who wanted to speak and stopped.
