The next day, at nine o'clock in the morning, the two people who had eaten breakfast drove for more than half an hour and came to a villa.

At this time, a lot of vehicles were parked in the open space in front of the door, it seemed that it was not early or late, the time was just right, and after showing the invitation, Meng Lang and the two walked into the hall.

At first glance, the hall is arranged as a trading hall, and in the center is a circular display case surrounded by a group of booths, on which are placed about 30 antiques of all sizes and nearly 40 pieces.

People gathered in groups around the display case to make a judgment, and the monkey had already stepped forward quickly, and was leaning in front of a porcelain vase with bright eyes.

As the saying goes, insiders look at the doorway, and laymen look at the liveliness. Meng Lang also looked around the display cabinet, only to see that there were porcelain, calligraphy and painting, ancient jade, and even a set of court clothes, it seems that there are really a lot of varieties, and there is a stack of disposable gloves next to each object for people to play with.

The showcase is not big, and after a while, Meng Lang has already taken a turn. I was thinking of looking for a monkey guy to sum it up, but when I saw that he was discussing something with a few middle-aged men, I had to put out this idea.

But standing stupidly like this seems to be out of place with the surrounding atmosphere.

Gotcha, turn it again!

So he simply circled around the display cabinet again, but this time the speed was significantly slower than the first time, no way, if it turned too fast, it would be finished in a while.

After a while, Meng Lang stopped in front of an ancient book, put on the gloves provided next to him, and slowly flipped through it. The main reason for choosing this place is that there are basically several people around other objects, and it is difficult for him to squeeze in if he is not familiar with the place.

Only there was no one in front of this display case, not that no one noticed this ancient book, he had seen several times that others had picked it up and flipped through a few pages and then put it down and turned away.

Therefore, he estimates that this ancient book is not a rare thing, people who like to collect books look down on it, and people who do not have this kind of collection hobby will naturally not pay attention to it.

He had just looked at a few pages when the voices of several people discussing came from the display case next to him.

An old man with silver hair but full of energy asked, "Xiao Chen, what did I say about the original contents of this box?" Could it be that there is some treasure in it, you kid is reluctant to take it out to open everyone's eyes! ”

"Elder Li, you have wronged me, I don't dare to hide it in front of your elder." The middle-aged man known as Xiao Chen shouted that he had been wronged, he paused, and continued, "This sandalwood box originally contained not a treasure, but a piece of uranium ore with radiation!" ”

Uranium ore?!

Several people around were attracted by this answer.

"Yes, this is what the contemptible nephew found when he poured a bucket, and along with this sandalwood box is the ancient book that this little brother is holding."

While answering everyone's questions, Mr. Chen, the organizer of the auction, turned his head to signal the ancient book that Meng Lang was holding in his hand, and suddenly several people around Mr. Chen turned their heads to look at Meng Lang.

"A few of our old guys have read this ancient book before, and what is written in the book seems to be just the so-called cultivation experience of a Taoist priest in the Ming Dynasty, which is a bit similar to the diary of our modern people, and there is nothing surprising about it? How can it be related to uranium mines? ”

The silver-haired old man surnamed Li asked.

Mr. Chen continued: "Everyone knows that uranium ore has the reputation of being the rose of the mine. The knowledge of the ancient people was relatively scarce, and they did not know the radiation hazards of uranium ore, so it is estimated that this Taoist priest thought it was a rare treasure when he picked it up, and put this seemingly colorful and exquisite uranium ore into this sandalwood box and collected it. ”

"Don't talk about the ancients, even my nephew thought it was some rare ore at the time, and brought it back for me to palm."

Everyone showed the same expression, even if modern people pick up such a beautiful and dazzling stone without knowing that it is uranium, most of them will collect it, let alone the ancients!

After everyone suddenly realized this, they suddenly lost interest in these things, and continued to walk to the next booth with Mr. Chen.

But Meng Lang, who was standing in place, was excited in his heart at this time, his heart was beating wildly, and even the hand holding the ancient book trembled slightly!

Although the content of the ancient books was written in classical Chinese, in order to facilitate writing, the characters since the Ming and Qing dynasties have basically begun to gradually simplify and simplify a lot.

Although it is not as straightforward as modern simplified characters, he can still understand fifty or sixty percent of the content after graduating from the Department of Literature.

The ancient book was written by a Taoist priest who called himself Qingchengzi, he was born in the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, his family was well-off, and he failed to succeed in scientific examinations in his early years, and became a monk in frustration.

Seeing this, everything recorded in the book seems to be very ordinary, and there is nothing surprising about it. But Qingchengzi's next description made Meng Lang excited!

Qingchengzi has been cultivating for several years, and he has taken a lot of pills, but he has not cultivated a reason, according to the statement recorded in his book, it is difficult to find immortals, and it is he who decided to go out and travel to find immortals!

One day, Qingchengzi picked up a uranium mine in a mountain and water. Of course, he didn't know that it was uranium ore, but called it metastone.

In addition to the gorgeous appearance that attracted him, what was even more strange was that whenever he approached this Yuan Stone, there would be a slight tingling sensation on the skin of his whole body, and everything would be normal after he stayed away.

Qingchengzi did not flinch, but was more convinced that this was the treasure left behind by the Heavenly Immortal Palace, the treasure of immortal cultivation, and his own immortal fate.

In the following years, in a daze, he cultivated the power of inner vision with this yuan stone, but that's all, the cultivation did not go further!

A few years later, he went out to travel again, traveled all over the three mountains and five mountains, all over the world, but never found the second Yuan Stone. So when he was old, in addition to regret, Qingchengzi wrote this book and left it for the destined people!

Most of the rest of the book is some daily cultivation experience!

Meng Lang didn't take a closer look at these at this time, and he guessed that the reason why Qingchengzi had a tingling sensation near the uranium mine should belong to a genetic mutation, a kind of skin sensitivity to radiation, just like some people are allergic to pollen and seafood, and some women are allergic to rubber products.

It's just that people who are allergic to radiation beyond a certain intensity should be rarer than these people in front, and Meng Lang himself belongs to the special constitution of radiation allergy!

In his sophomore year of high school, the school organized a visit to the local mineral museum, and when Meng Lang passed by the uranium ore in the exhibition hall, he felt exactly as Qingchengzi described.

Although Qingchengzi did not take another step on his path of cultivating immortals, his experience undoubtedly opened a mysterious door for Meng Lang!

Due to the limitations of the times, Qingchengzi didn't even know that the earth was round, that there was no Guanghan Palace on the moon, and that Chang'e and Jade Rabbit did not live.

This world is real, there is no heaven and hell between heaven and earth, and there is no aura and spirit stones! Here there is only science and knowledge, only practice and truth!

In this modern era of advanced science and technology, bursting with information, and human probes have been able to fly to Mars, Meng Lang has more unique knowledge conditions than Qingchengzi, and he believes that he can walk out of a real evolutionary path!

"Meng Shao, why are you in a daze?"

Meng Lang came back to his senses and found that the monkey came behind him at some point, and he was patting him on the shoulder and asked with some concern.

"Oh, nothing!"

"By the way, you're here just in time, help me read this book!"

Meng Lang said as he handed over the ancient book in his hand.

Hou Yao didn't rush to open the ancient book after taking it, first carefully looked at the cover, and then looked at the contents of the book, which seemed to be full of posture.

"I don't have much research on calligraphy and painting, but as the saying goes, I haven't snapped, I have watched a few island films, poetry, calligraphy and painting are worth nothing more than the authentic works of celebrities, and then the imitation of anonymous people with first-class calligraphy and painting skills."

"Obviously, this book is neither, the calligraphy is very ordinary, and this one can't even be considered a book, only a dozen pages, the only highlight is that the condition is still in good condition, 35,000 yuan, not worth a few dollars!"

It took less than a few minutes for the monkey to come to a conclusion.

After listening to the monkey's arguments, Meng Lang also relieved himself. What he is most worried about is that if someone also takes a fancy to this ancient book, these broad guys who can casually smash millions of dollars without frowning for the sake of face are not comparable to small fish and shrimp like him.

Except for some unfortunate masters, the antiques are basically not bad for money, which can be seen from the dozens of luxury brand cars parked outside the villa.

The monkey pursed his lips and teased: "Meng Shao, you shouldn't be idle and want to cultivate the truth, right?" Why don't I go to the antique market and buy you a Dan furnace? When the time comes, you have to notify me to open my eyes when I practice Jindan! ”

After many years of brotherly friendship, the two know each other well, and he naturally knows that with Meng Lang's personality, he will not pursue these ethereal and misty things.

Meng Lang replied angrily: "I will definitely take you to open my eyes when I cross the tribulation, and enjoy a few heavenly thunders by the way!" ”

Then he continued, "Eye, do you know the eye!" You also claim to have been in the antiques world for a few years. ”

The monkey grinned and put his arm around Meng Lang's shoulders and said, "Tsk, I also know that eye-edge, a proper noun that we only understand in the antique world, is not simple." ”

"First of all, welcome all new and old friends to come, the contemptible surname Chen, Erdong Chen, add as the organizer of this auction, presumably everyone has found their favorite objects, then now the auction officially begins, the first lot is this early Qing Dynasty kiln porcelain, the starting price is 30,000 yuan......"

Just when the two were playing and teasing each other, the voice of the middle-aged man surnamed Chen on the booth sounded, without any greetings and politeness, and the auction started straight to the point.

Everyone who heard the sound also found a place to sit down, and Meng Lang and the monkey also found an adjacent seat and sat down.

Meng Lang's fancy of the ancient book was ranked No. 20, so he didn't have much interest in the things he shot earlier, but the sandalwood box that used to contain uranium ore set off a small climax of contention.

Sandalwood grows slowly, it is extremely difficult to grow, it is not only a precious spice but also has high medicinal value, it has always been a popular collection, and it is not surprising that many people rush to take pictures!

"Hey, Meng Shao, it's time for your eyes......" Just as the host announced the next lot, the monkey touched Meng Lang with his arm.

Meng Lang also perked up when he heard this, and paid attention.

"Next up is Lot 20, and to be honest, you know that this book will not be enough for this auction. But after all, it is the first time that my nephew has touched the object, and it is not good to be an elder to chill the hearts of juniors, so I put it up for auction, and please bear with me, if you have a favorite friend, please take it for trouble, and the starting price is 10,000 yuan......"

So ginger is still old and spicy! The words of the host surnamed Chen were sincere and unrevealed, which caused the big guys present to nod slightly.

In the end, Meng Lang took the auction at a price of 40,000 yuan, although there were a few followers during the period, but it is estimated that it was also because of the host's previous remarks.

Everyone just coped with the scene, and when they saw that Meng Lang was the unjust leader, everyone also meant, and the point was over, after all, no one's money was blown by the wind.

At the end of the auction of ancient books, the host surnamed Chen also cast a grateful look at Meng Lang, which caused him to laugh in his heart.

And the monkey finally photographed a porcelain vase in his previous photo with a satisfied face, and the two brothers returned with a full load!
