Chapter 67: Breaking the Law
"Boss Ma, this painting is a fake, and after it reveals its true face, it will be completely ruined. Otherwise, let's stop here, and tell me where the painting comes from. The reason why Chen Xuan said this was because he felt that Boss Ma was probably also a victim, and he probably didn't know that this painting was a fake, and directly destroying this painting would cause him heavy losses. Imitations are used for counterfeiting, which will be criticized, but the imitation itself actually still has a certain artistic value. His purpose is to track down the octopus essence, not to prove the authenticity of the painting.
However, he did not hold out much hope when he said this. Just now, he was almost messing around, saying that this painting was fake, Peng Yayun was grateful to herself, so she had no choice but to make an exception to reveal the identity of Boss Ma and let him come over. Otherwise, the identity of the anonymous customer will not be revealed. In the same way, Boss Ma may not casually reveal the identity of the seller.
Sure enough, Boss Ma said: "If you say it's fake, it's fake, why should I reveal my seller's identity to you?"
"Young man, you really don't want to be vexatious. "Old Zhao and Old Li are impatient.
"In that case, then you're welcome. Chen Xuan said, according to General Birdtail's teachings, use mana, use fingers as swords, and suddenly point at the center of the "Bamboo and Stone Map", in the eyes of others, the center is just the blank space between the two bamboos, but in the eyes of General Birdtail, there is the flaw in this painting.
"What are you doing?" Boss Ma, Zhao Lao, and Li Lao were all shocked, and Wang Xuan Lai Qin also exclaimed, is he angry and angry, is he going to spill?
But I saw that Chen Xuan's fingers stopped at the top of the painting, but the painting was like a screen that had been poked, with a pattern on it, and the whole painting seemed to have been drained of spirituality, and it was basically still the same painting, but the original elegant style was no longer there. Looking at the details, bamboo and stone and the like, at first glance, it looks like it is printed, and the paper is also new, full of flaws.
"This ...... What's going on?" Zhao Lao and Li Lao were shocked.
"You...... What did you do?" Boss Ma was shocked and angry, shocked at how this painting was clicked, and it became like this, and angry at a good "Bamboo and Stone Map", if it became like this, it would be worthless.
Peng Yayun saw a flash of light in her eyes, and glanced at Chen Xuan with a strange look, while Wang Xuan and Lai Qin were dumbfounded.
"Look at it again, is this painting still genuine?" Chen Xuan said.
"This ...... It's impossible. "Zhao Lao and Li Lao are stunned, now this painting, at first glance, is printed, as an imitation, it is too careful. They didn't think that Chen Xuan had done any damage, after all, Chen Xuan only clicked on it with his finger, and he didn't even touch the painting.
"Boy, you ruined my painting, you compensate me. Boss Ma was angry, for him, it didn't matter if the painting itself was a fake or what Chen Xuan did. The important thing is that this painting, which itself could sell for a lot of money, is now worthless.
"Boss Ma, please speak politely. Peng Yayun interjected, and spoke without the politeness before, "If this painting is determined to be a fake, I still have to hold you responsible, although it is said that the current system is not perfect, and selling fakes can also get into loopholes and get away with it, but if I really investigate, it will be enough for you to have a headache, use the fake to fool us, and want us to compensate, do you think that I Peng Yayun is easy to bully?"
Boss Ma's face changed when he heard this, Peng Yayun was polite before, and he ignored her ability, so he quickly put away his attitude and smiled bitterly: "But my painting was originally real." ”
"Young man, what's going on with this painting?" The attitudes of Zhao Lao and Li Lao are different from before, and they are much more polite.
"Do you believe that there is a trick in this world? Chen Xuan said.
"Do you mean that there was a trick in this painting before?" Zhao Lao Li was stunned, which was simply beyond their cognition. They consider themselves to be proficient in the identification of calligraphy and paintings, and have seen all kinds of counterfeiting techniques, but they have never heard of any tricks. Why does this sound so mysterious? If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they would have thought it was nonsense.
"That's right, with this finger I just now, I broke the blindfold. Chen Xuan also used a more acceptable statement, in the words of General Birdtail, this is actually a spell of the octopus essence, one of the seventy-two techniques of the earth - false form, this is a kind of change technique, which can change the appearance, that is, Sun Wukong uses the trick at the pinnacle and often becomes the appearance of others. This trick not only changes itself, but also makes the object change.
General Sparrowtail said that the octopus spirit was originally a mimic octopus, the top camouflage master in nature, which can change color and shape at will, and its body has tens of thousands of color bags, controlled by a complex muscle network. The color bag contains pigments and relies on pigments (colors) to express a variety of shades. By relaxing or shrinking the color pockets, the mimic octopus can match itself to any background color and pattern in less than 1 second. It can be disguised as stones, layers of sand, and even creatures such as flounder, sea snakes, etc.
The mimic octopus has become a fine, which is even more incredible, and the talent has been greatly bonus, and it is easy to learn the magic of false shape.
"What's really in this world? It's incredible. "Zhao Lao and Li Lao, I feel that my three views are about to collapse. staring at "Bamboo and Stone Map", I still can't believe it.
Peng Yayun glanced at Boss Ma, who was still unwilling, and said: "Boss Ma, the facts are in front of you, you still admit it, instead of quibbling here, you want to say that this painting is genuine, it is better to quickly find the seller and confront him." ”
"I've bought everything, can that person still refund the money to me?" Boss Ma said with a wry smile.
"Boss Ma, who did you buy this painting from, I know his methods, and he may be able to help you get your money back. Chen Xuan said.
"Forget it, I think I'm unlucky. "Boss Ma didn't just come out to mix, he knew that it was basically impossible to pay the money and want others to return it, but after buying a fake, there was no need to keep it secret for the seller, and said, "I only know that his surname is Wang, he is quite young, and he is known as a collector and adventurer, and the others are not clear, he did not disclose it, and I did not check it carefully." ”
When he said this, even Chen Xuan guessed that he probably bought it on the black market, and the other party didn't even reveal his name, so it's hard to track it down.
"Now I have some doubts about the authenticity of your other two lots, I remember you said, those two are gifts for buying "Bamboo and Stone". Peng Yayun frowned and said.
"This ...... The other two lots are not sure of their value, and you have also made a statement of non-authenticity, so what does it matter if they are true or not? You can't ruin my "Bamboo and Stone Drawing" and take down the other two lots, but we signed a contract. "Boss Ma is in a hurry.
"What are the other two lots?" Chen Xuan couldn't help but care when he heard that the other two were gifts for buying "Bamboo and Stone Pictures", which might also be clues to the octopus essence.
