Chapter 4 Tepid Condition
The north-south inverted competition set off a bloody storm caused earth-shaking changes in the capital.
Kun Ba, the master of the outer eight gates, is dead, but the "door hall" under him is still there, and there are a number of other subordinates and careers, these tedious things have to be dealt with, so the seventh master must be so busy that he has no time to take care of himself. I appreciate the kindness of the two of them, and I also think that the alien residence will not fail to recruit helpers.
When the Seventh Master and the Playboy saw my resolute attitude, they got up to say goodbye, and when the Playboy walked out of the door of the antique shop in Yishiju, he turned back to me and said, "Brother, I will stay in the capital for a while now, if you need any help, just come to me." ”
I nodded, smiled and said to the playboy: "Seventh Master is a good girl, you are really blessed, treat others well, don't always be in the morning." ”
The playboy smiled very honestly, bared his little white teeth and said to me, "Brother, don't forget that I am a "strict wife". After getting married, I definitely don't dare to look around for flowers and willows anymore. ”
I smiled and saw off the couple, very envious and jealous. I used to be obsessed with the seventh master, but that was only because of a short unexpected story, when I saw the playboy's infatuated appearance now, I thought to myself: I can't let the playboy know if I was killed, I once peeped into his wife's body. When you drink with him in the future, you must definitely have a door on your lips, and you must not say that you are exposed.
When I turned back into the house, I saw the fat man looking at me strangely, and he was probably afraid that I would touch the scene and think of the rain. But he didn't know. I'm strong enough in my heart now, more powerful than he ever imagined. The intellect triumphs over all sensibility. Now is no time to talk about children's personal affairs. Besides, I believe that I will be able to meet with Tianyu again in the future. will also be like the playboy and the seventh master, forming a happy little family that belongs only to him.
I'm a little worried about the fat man now, and Yue'er may be taken back to China for treatment, and I haven't asked him what he thinks. I sighed a little that our two brothers were really miserable, and they both met the people they liked and loved, but the ending was similar to life and death.
Alas, creation makes man!
The day after the dude couple left, the antique shops in the Alien House were pushed open again, and it was none other than him. It was the little Buddha who was with us in the ancient evil tomb of the Tang Dynasty in the Northeast, Kunba's subordinate monkey.
The monkey pushed open the door with a grin, and as soon as he entered the door, he greeted me and the fat man warmly, "Master Wen, fat man, how are you lately!" ”
The fat man likes monkeys very much, and both of them are the kind of people who are open-minded and bold when they see money. There have been troubles together, and they smell the same. I was very happy to see each other.
When the fat man heard that the monkey was going to sign up to participate in this hunt, he immediately said excitedly: "Okay, monkey cub, there is righteousness." I didn't misread you. He even hugged the monkey quite excitedly. The monkey's thin body was almost crushed by the strong fat man.
The monkey grinned and said, "The matter between the Yishi Juwen Ye and the fat man is the matter of my monkey cub." Of course, you have to show up to help at the first time. ”
I smiled and said to the monkey, "Tell me the truth. Have you been strapped for money lately? ”
The monkey sits on top of a half-human-high glass display case and munches on melon seeds. He said to me with a hippie smile: "Master Wen, I really can't hide your old man's eyes." This is all to blame last time in the Tang Tomb in the Northeast, I didn't have long eyes, and I took a hot potato goods. ”
When the fat man opened the coffin in the Tang Ancient Evil Tomb, I hadn't met them at that time, and I didn't know what kind of artifact the monkey had taken in the coffin, so I asked him to come and hear it.
So, the monkey made a bitter face and said to me: "Don't mention it, it took me a long time later to understand what the meaningful smile of the little third master at that time meant!"
The monkey told me about the Ming vessel he took out of the Tang Ancient Evil Tomb, which was a cylindrical porcelain vase decorated with a picture of "bamboo shoots breaking the ground". After the monkey brought the porcelain vase out of the ancient tomb safely, he thought that after selling it for a good price, he would have a good time at ease. However, when he happily showed the vase to an antique dealer he trusted, the other party's answer almost made his eyes fall out.
The antique dealer said to the monkey: "Little Hou Ye, although this treasure you are holding is a porcelain vase, and its condition is in good condition, it is much less useful." You don't know what this object is for, right? ”
The monkey heart said: How do you know that! I only know that "porcelain is king" in the Ming ware in the tomb, and the natural first choice is of course to touch the porcelain, where does it matter what the porcelain is for?
The antique dealer was a very good friend of the monkey after he entered the industry, and he believed that the antique dealer would not fool him, so he asked the antique dealer to tell him what was wrong with this cylinder bottle.
The antique dealer pointed to the "bamboo shoot breaking the ground" drawn on the pillar bottle and said to the monkey: "There is not a single bamboo on this porcelain bottle, and all the bamboo shoots that have just broken through the ground are painted, which has a far-reaching meaning." When you smell the inside of this bottle, is there a faint smell of fishy cheeks and herbs? ”
The monkey picked up the porcelain vase and sniffed it, then said, "I don't smell it." ”
The antique dealer smiled and said to the monkey: "The little marquis often goes to the ground, and his nose is stained by the fishy smell of the earth. Because sometimes when you collect antiques, you feel a little eye-catching, so you can use your hands to weigh the amount, taste the taste with your mouth, and smell the taste with your nose to distinguish the real from the fake. Therefore, a good antique dealer must be outstanding in these senses. ”
The monkey didn't understand what the antique dealer said, let alone what it had to do with his porcelain vase, and couldn't help but start to wonder if the antique dealer had a black heart and wanted to make up a story and take the opportunity to bargain.
When the antique dealer saw that there was something wrong with the monkey's face, he smiled and said to the monkey: "Little Hou Ye, I told you about this treasure." This thing has a woody smell and earthy smell on it, and it should have been taken out of the ground not long ago. Its owner should be a lord who is gone, that is, a eunuch. It originally contained the treasure root of the tomb owner, but it has been melted over the years. The meaning of the picture on this column bottle is to pray for the next life, and you should understand that it can be like spring shoots! ”
When the monkey heard this, the treasure porcelain vase he had been carrying in his arms turned out to be the "liter" containing the eunuch's "treasure" (life root). (The pure eunuchs were born poor for a long time, and most of them were cornered, so they had to enter the palace and suffer this crime.) After entering the palace, in order to ascend, the porcelain vase containing the treasure was placed high, which means ascending. Therefore, the thing that contains the root of the eunuch's life is called a liter. Suddenly my heart was uncomfortable. But on the surface, he can't show timidity, and he is still looking forward to the porcelain vase that he finally brought out, which can be sold for a big price.
But in the end, the monkey also failed to fulfill his wish, just because the meaning and use of this porcelain vase are not very good, antique dealers look at the face in the past, or give a good friendship price, saying that after the reception of those blind laymen, if it hits a large price, will compensate the monkey in the future.
I almost didn't laugh out loud when I listened to the monkey's story. The porcelain vase was indeed more valuable than gold, but because the fat man didn't understand the market, he went straight to the gold jar when he made the first move, without even looking at the porcelain vase. But the monkey knew the doorway of the Ming device, and he must have thought that he had picked up a big bargain at that time, but he didn't look much in a hurry. As a result, I didn't smash the thing in my own hands, which is considered good.
The fat man patted the monkey on the shoulder and said, "It's okay, this time the fat brother I will cover you and definitely let you touch a good thing." ”
When the monkey heard this, his little eyes rolled, and he immediately looked at the fat man with bright eyes, and said gratefully: "Thank you for the help." ”
Since the monkey came to report, he has relied on the Alien Residence, and then he moved the equipment and daily necessities, and directly lived in the Alien Residence. Eat, drink, and sleep, all in a different place, and simply treat this place as if it were his own home. However, there are empty rooms in the old mansion of Yishiju, and it doesn't matter if he moves in. The fat man was very welcome, and the two of them giggled all day long, fighting and playing without heart and lungs. But I was at a loss, and I said in my heart: The convening order has been issued for some time, but there are only a few people who come to the door, is it because the name of the stranger is not loud enough?
This is impossible, Master Fang Lao is in the capital, and he can be regarded as a well-known figure. Craftsmen in the industry, how can they not know the name of Yishiju! So maybe it's because everyone thinks that I and the fat man are in charge, so they don't trust it very much?
Although the fat man and I are young, we have fought a lot over the years, and we have also made some reputations, especially a fight in Kunlun Mountain, I believe that we must have become famous, and it is impossible to not even recruit half of them. Is there something else hidden in this, or is someone obstructing it?
I thought about it, and my ass couldn't sit still. I'm not an impatient person, but I feel a little unsteady and inexplicably uneasy.
So I said to the fat man and the monkey, "Let's go out for a walk today." ”
The fat man immediately jumped up from the stool and shouted, "Great, Lao Zheng, you have a treat, let's go down to the restaurant." ”
As soon as I said "yes", the door of the store was pushed open and a group of people walked in from the outside. Surrounded by everyone, he was a very white and fat man, who looked like a flower that did not bask in the sun in a greenhouse, and his eyes were so small that they were about to squint into a slit, as if he couldn't see the road under his feet clearly.
After the white Humpty Dumpty man walked into the house, he waved his hand to the people beside him, "You all go out, I have something to say to Master Wen." ”
I saw Humpty Dumpty's way of driving away his men as if he were chasing flies, and I was very disgusted and impatient. I couldn't help but say: In this case, why do you still put on a score to let your subordinates come in, pretending to be an uncle to show to whom? (To be continued......)
