Chapter 8: The Blind
The reverse master is a jargon in the antique shop, that is, those who sell the objects after receiving them to make the difference, Wu Yi's mask was bought from a fallen master in Yunlai County, and it is worth mentioning that this fallen master is a little different, he is an old blind man.
Wu Yi took a bus to Yunhai County, and after nearly three hours, he arrived at the bus station in Yunhai County, and called a three-jumper, and finally arrived at the street market in Yunhai County after 20 minutes.
Many of the antiques in Wu Yi's shop were found on this street, and when he went to school, he studied the specialty of antique art identification.
There are no less than 100 stalls on this street, all kinds of old gadgets, old pocket watches, old clocks, old pipes and snuff bottles, three-inch golden lotuses worn by women in the past, and cricket jars that children and old men like, and some bottles and jars, ancient books and paintings, etc., anyway, as long as they are old things, they can basically be found here.
Wu Yi saw at a glance the old blind man who sold him the mask that day, and squeezed through the crowd, when the blind man was talking about business with a big brother dressed as a peasant.
"Tsk, I said brother, the rules of the old man selling antiques are all known, let's only sell to people who know the goods! If you don't know the goods and want to buy something from the old man, and the old man doesn't sell it, it's not bad. Waste cultural relics! As soon as you walked to the old man's stall just now, the old man felt that the wind was blowing, this momentum, if it wasn't for the reincarnation of a certain immortal in the sky, it would be strange! ”
The old blind man grabbed the middle-aged brother's hand, groped twice on the stall with the other hand, touched a copper kettle with some patina, handed it to the old brother's hand, and said with a sigh of teeth,
"Brother, although I can't see the blind man, my heart is bright, this green-veined dragon bronze single-spout pot is very likely to be used to make tea in the Heavenly Palace, brother! To tell you the truth, blind man, I used to get a half-official position in the sky, and at that time I saw a fairy like you, brother, who had his own majestic style, and it was all a bronze single-spout pot with this green-veined dragon! ”
The blind man said with emotion, and the head was the truth, the middle-aged brother may not have a high level of education, but he really believed it, and finally used a piece of plaid cloth to carefully wrap the copper kettle with patina, and got up and left with a thousand thanks.
As soon as Wu saw that the blind man had finished his business, he walked over and asked with a smile,
"I said blind, you used to be a half-official in the sky, why is this more and more mixed, but you have set up a shop in our people? Could it be that the Jade Emperor is in arrears with the wages of all the immortals, so you quit your job? ”
The blind man waved his hand and sighed, saying,
"Hey, the old man was also in peace back then, and he was too chic, I heard that the seven fairies were bathing in Jiuqu Tianhe Bay, so I ran to take a peek, but I was discovered by the fairy sisters and told the Jade Emperor, which demoted me to the mortal world, and also accepted the old man's pair of hard work!"
After the old blind man finished speaking, he laughed and shouted in the direction of Wu Yi,
"Master Wu, what kind of wind is this blowing your old man again, could it be that there is something wrong with the black-faced Buddha bronze mask that was taken from me last time?"
The blind man's ability to hear and distinguish people is really not true, Wu Yi has been in contact with him a few times, and now he has said a word, and the blind man will recognize him.
Wu Yi didn't ink, walked next to the blind man and lowered his body and said directly,
"Blind man, where did you get that bronze mask you sold me last time? Are there any other objects that have passed through your hands with it? Like, a map? ”
The blind man was stunned for a moment, helped his double round blind mirror, thought for a moment, and said,
"Master Wu, why are you asking that? Could it be that on the bronze mask of the black-faced Buddha, what else can't be done? ”
After all, the blind man is an old man who has been in the society for I don't know how many years, although Wu Yi asked very vaguely, but it still made the blind man notice a little strange.
Wu Yi naturally wouldn't tell the matter of the god-level tomb robbery system, so he said according to the words he had thought about in advance,
"Your black Buddha bronze mask isn't at all, it's called the ghost snake fish mask, it's a good thing! I also saw some records about it in a set of ancient books in my shop! It is said in ancient books that the middle of this ghost-patterned snakefish mask is hollow, and when it is broken, there will be a map inside, but after I break it, guess what? There's nothing in there! ”
As he spoke, Wu Yi took out the ghost-patterned snakefish mask in his backpack and asked the blind man to touch it, the blind man was suspicious, and his hands touched the place where the fracture was, and sure enough, it was hollow inside, which he really hadn't discovered beforehand.
Like some ancient things, the middle is hollowed, and it is generally used to hide some more valuable things, which the blind also know. The most famous is the tomb of the three barbarians unearthed in the Three Barbarian Mountain, speaking of that tomb, it really made the experts who opened the tomb at that time feel ups and downs. It took a lot of manpower and material resources to dig up the tomb, but at first glance, the tomb was already empty!
Next to the coffin of the owner of the tomb, there were no less than ten large and small robbery holes, obviously, before the experts and others found the tomb of the three barbarians, there were already several groups of tomb robbers who had taken the lead in visiting here, and there was nothing left!
Those experts were all depressed, crying and cleaning the tomb there, but who knows, in another village, a young archaeological worker accidentally hit his head on the coffin board of the tomb owner, and actually smashed the coffin board out of a hole!
The tomb was dark and damp, and it was not a big deal that the coffin board had been corroded for thousands of years and rotted, but it was immediately discovered by experts that there was a thick mezzanine of a one-yuan coin in the rotten coffin board! And it was in that mezzanine that the experts finally found an object that caused a sensation in the entire archaeological world, that is, a detailed structural diagram of the tombs of ancient princes and nobles that encompassed almost 300 years of history!
This map can be said to provide an immeasurable role for the archaeological community to investigate the history of that period!
The blind man touched it for a long time, and then he said,
"Master Wu, you don't understand the rules of our industry, it is natural for the upper family to contact the next family, but if you want to find the old man's next family, such a cross-level contact, it will be a broken rule!"
Wu Yi scolded secretly when he heard this, this old thing obviously doesn't want to tell himself the truth, although there are a lot of rules in the antique shop, but if you want to do things according to the rules, how many people will starve to death, this old thing obviously wants to get some oil and water from it!
Wu Yi looked around, lowered his body and whispered next to the blind man's ear,
"As long as you get on the line, if I am done, after the deed, what is the difficulty for me to share a spiritual weapon with you!"
