My name is Ge Tianzhong, I just turned 20 this year, I was born in an antique family, my family has been doing antique trading for generations, how many generations have played this thing until now I can't count, anyway, I heard my dad say that the ancestors who first began to toss this thing can be traced back to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, but at that time he did things that could no longer be called trading, basically empty-handed dead people's wealth.

That's right, the ancestor of my family was a tomb robber.

It's just that it is said that he later died in a big tomb, and since then the descendants have never been under the tomb, and in my generation, it is simply impossible to touch the antiques, no way, I am a premature baby, and my mother also went early in order to give birth to me, so that I was congenitally weak, in my father's words, the eight characters are not strong enough, the congenital yang is insufficient, and it is easier to encounter unclean things than ordinary people, and doing antique trading is no different from looking for death!

After all, antiques are called antiques at best, but in the end they are still funeral goods, dead people's things! Doing this business is simply snatching things from the hands of other dead people, you say that if the eight characters are not strong enough, you can touch this thing to be as good as you? My family has been doing this for generations, because the strange things that come into collecting antiques are not one or two, and it is normal for the family to be taboo, and my name Tianzhong is also because of this.

My dad said that the Dragon Boat Festival is the heaviest day of the year, and the Dragon Boat Festival is also called the Tianzhong Festival.

In this way, under the protection of my father, I lived peacefully for more than 20 years, without suffering or sin, and my life was peaceful, until the incident happened half a year ago, and the trajectory of my unchanged life changed somewhat.

That day, I was in class as usual, but my dad's assistant Uncle Li suddenly came to my university without saying a word, asked me for leave and drove me away, and later I found out that my dad had an accident!

Probably a month before my father's accident, a group of tomb robbers found a tomb group in Qinling, this tomb group is some years old, there are many tombs in it, basically all of them are tombs before the Sui Dynasty, this group of tomb robbers just stole one, and they made nearly 2,000 antiques flow to the antique market, and I don't know which of the tomb robbers did a good thing, and the news leaked.

This is a very rare thing in recent years, and the entire antique world has exploded all at once!

For a time, there were countless people who went to Qinling to "open a mine in the mountains", in fact, they were also a group of tomb robbers, under the guise of opening mines in the mountains, and it was convenient for them to dig mountains and dig graves!

There are even some local villagers who have joined in.

When my dad heard the news, where could he sit still? Immediately packed up and ran to Qinling to collect "wild goods", which is the jargon of the antique industry, which refers to the antiques that are scattered in the countryside and are buried by those villagers who do not know a single word, and the vast majority of antiques in the antique market today belong to "wild goods".

It's just that this "wasteland" is also uneven, people who don't have a little eyesight really can't do it, and my dad is the kind of person who has a "discerning eye", for example, ten years ago, once he went to the countryside to collect "wasteland", passing by a farmhouse, he found a woman holding a black thing to poke the stove fire, my dad saw at a glance that the black thing was actually an eight-sided sword, it is said that the woman's husband dug out of the ground when he was planting, and was used by the woman as a burning stick. Later, he spent 200 yuan to collect the eight-sided Han sword from the woman, and sold it for 430,000 yuan!

This is the benefit of collecting "waste goods", luck is right, you can make a lot of money at once, do our business like this, don't open for half a year, open for half a year!

So it's normal for my dad to go to Qinling to collect "wild goods", I also know about this, I didn't ask much at the time, after all, there is such a large tomb group in Qinling, antiques are exposed to the surface due to rain washing, mountain collapse and other reasons, and finally scattered among the people The probability is very high, and it is very likely that you can make a fortune when you run to collect "wild goods".

But what I didn't expect was that my dad went and never came back.

I also asked Uncle Li about the bad news that I didn't know now, it didn't do me any good, and he told me when I had the ability.

I know that my dad's death must not be so simple, but Uncle Li doesn't say it, I can't help it, and in order to survive, I can only take over my dad's antique shop, even if I am weak and impulsive and not suitable for this industry, I have no choice, fortunately, with Uncle Li's help, I can take care of my studies.

In this way, I lived a busy life between the antique store and the university, but unfortunately the antique store was busy for half a year and there was no business, but the savings left by my father to me were getting less and less day by day, I was in a hurry, and I was still thinking about the cause of my father's death all day long, and I had hardly slept well in the past six months.

I know that if I don't figure out my dad's affairs for a day, I won't be able to live in peace for a day, my dad and I depend on each other, and the inexplicable others will be gone, and I can't give up on anything.

……

On this day, as usual, after my big class at ten o'clock in the morning, I went to the antique shop that my father left for me because there was no more class today.

However, I was still doing hot butts upstairs, and I heard a burst of arguments downstairs, and I ran down at that time.

After going downstairs, I found that Uncle Li was arguing with a middle-aged man in his forties, wearing a camouflage uniform and carrying a long and narrow coarse cloth package on his back. ”

The middle-aged man refused to go out, and said in Mandarin with a strong Shaanxi accent: "You haven't seen my goods yet, can you take a look at it?" If you look at it, it's okay to give less, my brother is still waiting for this money to save his life! ”

Ghosts?

As soon as I heard this, my brows suddenly wrinkled - ghost goods are also the jargon of our industry, referring to the things dug up by tomb robbers, this kind of goods is illegal, and secondly, the things that have just been dug out of the tomb have a high probability of being contaminated with evil spirits, which is not good for people, and the damage to the body is small, so I am afraid of provoking a series of evil things, so ordinary people dare not accept ghost goods!

However, my father's shop used to definitely dare to collect ghost goods, otherwise he wouldn't have gone to Qinling to collect "wild goods"!

Because my father has a way to get this ghost out, and I also have the contact information of those people he handed over before his death, it is impossible for Uncle Li not to know this, what happened to him today?

Thinking of this, I stopped me and said, "Uncle Li, wait a minute." ”

When Uncle Li saw me coming down, his face changed, he opened his mouth to say something, and finally sighed lightly and said: "Xiaotian, this person is from Shaanxi, and only Qinling has the most ghosts in Shaanxi now, and he doesn't need to look at this thing to know where it comes from!" ”

"It's good, and it's okay to be a ghost."

I smiled and waved my hand, walked up to the middle-aged man in one step, looked the middle-aged man up and down, I didn't notice it just now, but now I stood beside this person, and suddenly smelled the strong earthy smell on his body!

This earthy smell is very special, although I have not been exposed to this industry before, but my family has been doing this for a long time, and I know a lot of things, and I know that this guy is a tomb robber when I smell this smell.

Perennial tomb robbers have this smell - this smell is different from the smell of farming, this smell is very pungent, like the smell of mossy water after a long time!

After seeing this middle-aged man, I had a little idea in my heart, and asked, "Why did you come to Shanxi to sell things from Shaanxi?" ”

"Alas, don't mention it, something happened, my brother was seriously injured, and there are people I know in the Taiyuan Armed Police Hospital, so I came here to see it."

The middle-aged man glanced at me and asked, "Little Housheng, can you be in charge?" ”

"I'm the boss here."

I smiled, "Take your stuff out and show it to me, right?" ”

As soon as he heard that I was the boss, the middle-aged man's eyes lit up obviously, and he quickly took off the narrow coarse cloth package on his back, opened it, and took out a knife with a particularly corroded scabbard from it and handed it to me.

The moment I saw this knife, my eyes lit up, not that this knife was so good, but that I liked the handle!

The handle is completely made of green and white jade, which has been some years, and the oxide on it, in our jargon, is that the pulp is particularly thick, because it has been buried underground for a long time, so other minerals have penetrated into the surface, and it has penetrated into it, forming something similar to the shining thing of mica flakes, which is very beautiful.

As soon as I saw this Qinse, I knew that this knife was absolutely real, after all, the handle of the knife was accumulated over time, but it couldn't be faked, and looking at the pulp of this jade, I knew that I was afraid that it would take at least a thousand years, it belonged to the ancient jade, aside from this knife, this handle alone is estimated to be worth a lot of money!

People say that the ancient jade is not as valuable as the Ming and Qing jades, in fact, it is all, but the ancient jade is too rare, there are few that have been handed down, and the intact ones, the craftsmanship is good, and the good quality can almost be sold at sky-high prices, which is very rare, so most of the fakes that circulate on the market are not worth a few dollars, and over time it gives people the illusion that the ancient jade is not as valuable as the Ming and Qing jades.

Bang!

I grabbed the hilt of the sword, pulled out the sword, and suddenly let out a soft groan, and the cold light appeared, which startled me a lot!

Although I don't know how long this knife has been buried in the ground, it is extremely well preserved, except for the severe corrosion of the scabbard, the blade is almost not damaged, extremely rare and precious!

I secretly said in my heart that I was gone, and quickly looked at it carefully.

This knife is blue and introverted, there is a "dragon chanting" sound when it comes out of the sheath, the back of the knife is straight and thick, the blade length is more than 70 centimeters, and the process should be the "hundred refining knife" that appeared after the Eastern Han Dynasty, the blood groove is very deep, and I don't know how many people this knife killed at the beginning, and the blood groove still presents a strange dark red, which is drunk from human blood, and there are six small words engraved on the position of the handle - "The knife is hundred, the heart is not easy"!

As soon as I saw these six small words, my complexion changed at that time!!

My family has been doing this for generations, although I have never had the opportunity to touch this when my father was here, but I have not seen less records of treasures in the family, and the various characteristics of this knife make me think of a famous treasure knife in history - Baipi Knife!

According to legend, the Baipi knife is the Eastern Han Dynasty Cao Cao ordered to build five peerless good knives, gave his son three, he kept two for himself, it is said that the hair is broken, the sharpness is incomparable, and the gold and jade are omnipotent, so there is the name of Baipi, but the later generations have never been unearthed, so it is similar to the "Ten Famous Swords", and it has become a legend.

I carefully looked at every detail of the knife in my hand, and after a long time, I finally let out a long breath - it should be true, this is definitely one of the five legendary hundred knives!!

I'm a little amazed, what the hell is this middle-aged man, what the hell is this middle-aged man, he actually made up a hundred knives, like this kind of famous sword has always been a legendary thing, not to mention any artifacts such as Xuanyuan Xia Yu sword, so far a Wu Wangfu sword has been unearthed, almost sold at a sky-high price, when my grandfather was still alive, he said that the biggest regret in his life was that he couldn't handle a magic weapon, I didn't expect it to come to me.

It's just that with such a miracle soldier, with the little money my father left me, can I buy it?

I estimate that this knife can be sold for at least seven figures, and it is still five dozen, it is definitely a national treasure, and if you are caught, you will be killed!!

For a moment I fell into a long hesitation.

The middle-aged man probably saw that I was silent, and couldn't help but ask with some worry: "Little Housheng, can you want this thing?" ”

"To be honest, I don't dare to ask for it."

I let out a long breath, a wry smile on my face, "If you give the right price, I can consider it."

Big brother, don't suspect that I'm pressing your price by saying this, your thing is not clean, and it's weird, I guess I'm the only one in this antique street who dares to ask for it! ”

This didn't lie to him, this hundred knives are definitely the country's heavy weapons, people who are not strong enough can't get out, and dying in their own hands is a disaster, maybe when the news leaks out, you have to squat and eat guns, I know more or less about the people in this antique street, they don't have the ability to ask for it, and they don't dare to ask for this thing!

As for me......

If I could buy it, I would have dared to ask for it, and the way my dad left me would definitely be able to get this thing out!!

As soon as the middle-aged man heard what I said, his face turned green: "Little Housheng, I almost worked hard to get this thing, you ...... it."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by a wave of my hand: "How much money do you want, quote a price, I'll see if I can ask for it, if I can ask for it, if I can't ask for it, you can try it somewhere else!" ”

The man hesitated, and after a long time, he gritted his teeth and said, "Ten thousand, okay?" ”

My eyes widened.

So...... Cheap?

Originally, I thought he would ask for a sky-high price, but it turned out to be 10,000, it seems that this guy really doesn't know how to do it, but I didn't dare to show these on my face, and I pretended to hesitate for a long time before nodding: "Okay, it's very difficult to see your family, then 10,000!" ”

After I gave him the money, I left him a phone number, and asked him to get something from me in the future, and I also saw that this man had found a big tomb, and I don't think it would be a simple tomb to get out of this tomb with a hundred knives, maybe there will be something good in the future.

After making this ticket, I was really excited in my heart, looking for my dad's previous way, getting this thing out and Lao Tzu would become a millionaire, that feeling was indescribable, and he waved his hand excitedly at the moment: "Okay, Uncle Li, let's get off work early today to celebrate!" ”

"Xiaotian, I won't go."

Uncle Li sighed, seemed preoccupied, and stopped talking a little, and only after a long time suddenly appeared: "Xiaotian, since you have accepted this thing, Uncle won't say much, but if you encounter something wrong, you have to tell me immediately." ”

"What could it be?"

I smiled, I was really excited at the time, I didn't notice the worry on Uncle Li's face, and what I didn't know at the time was that because of my greed this time, I almost put my life into it!!
