Chapter 45: The Man in Amber

I don't know when it has begun to snow outside, the goose-feather snow mixed with the biting cold wind is coming, Jiao Yuzhen couldn't help but shrink his neck, and walked out along the corridor, there is a huge garden outside the hall where the auction venue is located......

Suddenly, that white figure appeared in the courtyard, maybe because of the snow, there was no one else in the courtyard, that white figure seemed to have a sense of secular and independent, that person was ...... The son of Han Yue of the Crescent Moon Pavilion.

The white-clothed figure moved slightly, and then turned to look at Jiao Yuzhen, but for a moment, Jiao Yuzhen could clearly see that the eyes under this person's mask were closed!

Blind?

"Who's coming?"

Hearing the other party's voice, Jiao Yuzhen was startled, and then hurriedly suppressed his voice and replied with his fists: "The little one is the attendant of Xin Gongzi, the boss of Jubao, named Xiaobao." ”

"Where do I seem to have heard your voice......" The man paused, but opened his mouth to introduce himself, "I'm Han Yue, the pavilion master of the Crescent Moon Pavilion, do you have something to do with me?" ”

"I'm Han Yue, the pavilion master of the Crescent Moon Pavilion, do you have something to do with me?"

"I ...... I ......" Jiao Yuzhen didn't know what to say for a while, but she suddenly thought of the Jade Buddha that was hiding something in it, so she said, "I saw that Jade Buddha was photographed by you just now, I really want to see it...... I just want to see the Jade Buddha and not break it or take it. ”

"Jade Buddha?" Jimo Hanfei slightly hooked the corners of his lips, "Why is the little brother interested in that Jade Buddha?" ”

"I just shouted the price from my boss, this is the first time I have followed the boss to participate in such an auction, and it is also the first time to shout the price, although it was not successful, but I still want to see clearly what I am shouting for, so ......" Jiao Yuzhen stepped forward, and when he got closer, he found that this Han Yue Gongzi's figure was really good, but his tall and straight body always seemed to have seen it somewhere, after all, the last time I saw him, he was sitting in a carriage, and she couldn't have a familiar feeling about his height and size.

"I see." Jimo Hanfei raised his hand and spoke softly, "Xiao Yi, go and bring the Jade Buddha obtained from the auction just now to this little brother to see." ”

Xiao Yi's figure appeared from the depths of the corridor, holding a brocade box in his hand, he walked over quickly, and presented the brocade box with both hands: "Master, the Jade Buddha is here." ”

"Little brother, you can take it and take a look. Although this jade Buddha is priceless, there is nothing special about it. I bought it because a friend wanted it. Jimo Hanfei happily asked Xiao Yi to hand the Jade Buddha to Jiao Yuzhen.

"Thank you." Jiao Yuzhen took the Jade Buddha out of the box, she was not afraid to check the Jade Buddha in front of everyone, after all, no one would have such an ability as her.

When the golden light appeared in her eyes, Jiao Yuzhen suddenly saw clearly what was in the Jade Buddha, it was a key with a strange shape, so she really couldn't understand how such a key entered this Jade Buddha, the texture of this Jade Buddha is indeed natural nephrite, even if it is not nephrite, there is no artificial fake jade in this era, unless it ...... This Jade Buddha has a mechanism, and this mechanism is very ingenious......

"The snow seems to be getting heavier, my lord...... Whether ......"

Xiao Yi's words were very vague, but Jiao Yuzhen understood very clearly, she hurriedly returned the Jade Buddha to Xiao Yi, Xin Pengyi reminded her not to have any contact with the Crescent Moon Pavilion, so she still accepted it when she saw it: "Thank you, I've finished reading it, I'll leave first." ”

"Little brother walk slowly." The corners of Mo Hanfei's lips still had a faint smile, and it wasn't until Jiao Yuzhen walked away that he gently covered his nose with his hand, "His taste is so familiar, but he added too many spices." ”

"Master, it should be a girl dressed as a man, but the smell mixed in the crowd didn't find anything, but it became very clear here." Xiao Yi couldn't help frowning, "That tastes so strange, it seems that too many spices have been used to cover up the smell." ”

"Treasure ...... Qing Bao ...... It turned out that she was Jiao Yuzhen, the third lady of Jiao Fu, my ...... The future concubine. Jimo Hanfei slowly put away his smile, "Shu Qing died because of her, since that's the case, I want her to not be able to go back tonight." ”

"My subordinates understand." Xiao Yi bowed his head in response, and when he raised his head again, his eyes were full of murderous intent, since his master didn't like this woman, then he would let this woman never appear in front of his master again!

"Ah, by the way...... Ji Mo Hanfei said slowly, "Although I don't know why she is interested in the Jade Buddha, but since she came to see it in person, she must know something." You need to get her to explain this. ”

"Yes!"

******

"You're back?" Seeing that Jiao Yuzhen walked back alone, and there were still a little wet marks on his shoulders, Xin Pengyi took out a handkerchief from his arms and handed it over, "Your hair is wet, wipe it quickly, be careful not to catch a cold." ”

"I'm fine." Although he said this, Jiao Yuzhen still took the handkerchief and wiped it, "I went to see the Jade Buddha just now, and there is a very special key in the Jade Buddha, and I still don't understand how to get this key in." The jade of the Jade Buddha is a natural ancient jade, but there is a key hidden in it, as if the key was originally inside. It's impossible that the formation cycle of jade is so long......"

"I heard that there are wizards in the Western Regions who can use the art of dissolving jade, which is an ancient spell that can turn ancient jade into jade water, and then recreate the jade in the appearance shell, if this legend is true, then the key you see can naturally be fused into it. However, such a spell has long since been lost, or may be nothing more than a legend. "Xin Pengyi doesn't care about the jade Buddha, the base of the jade Buddha is very thick, although the jade is transparent, but it is naturally impossible to see through the things inside with such a thick thickness, so at a glance, it looks like there are small impurities inside, who would know that it is a key?

"The Art of Dissolving Jade...... "Even in the twenty-first century of the previous life, only artificial fake jade can do this, how can natural ancient jade be created like this, Jiao Yuzhen doesn't understand how to think about it, although she knows that the world in this era is different from the world in the previous life, but it is impossible to have such an incredible technology.

At this time, Jimo Hanfei also came back with Xiao Yi, and the two sat back in their original positions, but Xiao Chunshan, who was also sitting, hurriedly stood up and respectfully added tea to Jimo Hanfei.

"Look over there." Xin Pengyi pushed some of the things on the table that had just been bought back into large boxes and small boxes in front of Jiao Yuzhen, "After you went out just now, the speed of the auction has become much faster, and I have taken a lot of things." However, I just inquired, and the jadeite rough seems to have been inspected by some master treasure connoisseurs to be inferior rough stones, so the auction has been cancelled, but there will be a huge amber later, and the head is bigger than a person's height, and the price must be very scary. I don't know if I'll be able to get it back, but I still want to see it. ”

Seeing Xin Pengyi so excited, Jiao Yuzhen also laughed, she is also a person who loves jewelry, since there is such a huge amber, it is impossible for her not to be interested: "Is it amber bigger than a person?" What's really inside? ”

"I don't know, and it's already polished, I'll be able to see what happens later. But it's so big, it must be a treasure......"

Before Xin Pengyi's words were finished, a guard on the auction table pushed a huge commodity wrapped in red cloth onto the auction table, which was much taller than a burly man, this must be the huge amber that Xin Pengyi said.

"Everyone, this is the finale of tonight, the low price is 10,000 taels of silver."

As soon as Eminem's voice came out, the audience was full of wow, after all, most of the guests here are merchants, and they may not be able to sell such a large amount of goods smoothly, the purchase price is so expensive, and storage and transportation are a problem, so many people present dare not bid rashly.

"So let's take a look at the goods first." Eminem glanced at the guard behind him, and the guard tore off the big red cloth covered with amber, revealing the original appearance of amber, which was crystal clear, not only taller than an adult man, but even a person inside!

"It's a human ...... inside" Xin Pengyi couldn't help frowning, he was a mercenary businessman, but a gentleman loves money and has a good way to get it, and he has no interest in hurting others like this, so all the original interest suddenly disappeared without a trace.

"It's actually a human ......" Jiao Yuzhen also had a creepy feeling when he looked at the person in the amber, the one in the amber was a young man, his appearance was so delicate that it was difficult to describe in words, he was wearing a red robe with golden patterns, his hands were crossed on his chest, and he looked like he was asleep, but he must have died, he was about sixteen or seventeen years old when he died, and he had become a decoration in the amber.

Seeing that the guests present began to talk in a low voice, Eminem seemed to have seen everything in his eyes, and he said with a smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, this thing is a unique treasure in heaven and earth. It was unearthed in a mysterious tomb in the Western Regions, and according to the inscription in the tomb, this person was the son of a priest of that mysterious country, who sealed him in this huge amber by spell in order to worship the gods. As long as you keep this object at home, it will not only ward off evil spirits in the house, but also attract good luck, after all, this is a holy object made by the priest himself! ”

"It's terrible to turn your son into amber and put it in place." Jiao Yuzhen couldn't help but rub his arm, goosebumps all over his body, "But can you make amber in this era?" ”

"It's amber, but it's different from real amber." Xin Pengyi explained in a low voice, "In some ancient countries in the Western Regions, there has always been such a process, soaking some living people or small animals alive in potions, and then enclosing them in a mold shell, and after a certain period of time, they will be taken out and polished, and it will become something like that." But this is the first time I've seen amber with a human in it, and it's disgusting. ”

"Potion...... Isn't this similar to the so-called jade-melting technique? ”

Xin Pengyi's eyes lit up and looked at Jiao Yuzhen: "You're right, if you can master that kind of technology, we almost don't need to buy it." Qingbao, you want this? ”
