Chapter 069: Removing the False and Preserving the True
The mustard that exists in Ye Yufei's heart is not because of me, but because of Ye Yumeng's death. The pain of losing a loved one made it impossible for her to accept me, the biggest suspect, easily.
In fact, she also has a scale in her heart, and what she does is destined to lose people's hearts.
"The poison in you is very dangerous, the slightest mistake will invade the internal organs, and if it is a quarter of an hour late, even Da Luo Jinxian will have no skills." Ji Weiqi said, "However, because you are in good health, there is basically no major problem after taking the antidote." ”
"But my stomach hurts"
"Don't scare me, how can it be" I was a little surprised, "It stands to reason, it shouldn't be, isn't the poison not finished yet?"
"This is normal, you may have abdominal pain all the time these days, just recuperate."
"Ji Weiyu didn't get rid of me, she will definitely make a move next." Ye Yufei said cautiously, "There is no point in you saving me. ”
"You're too worried" I didn't take it seriously at all, "First of all, the person who Ji Weiyu will target next will never be you, but me, because I have what she wants, and secondly, Ji Weiyu is not stupid enough to openly rob people, it is not good for her to go through such a big effort, unless she has something important in your hands, but according to my understanding of her, this person will never give you this kind of opportunity"
I feigned a wail.
Sure enough, Ye Yufei lowered her head and said, "You're right, I'm just a pawn in her hands, and my death doesn't matter at all." ”
"You can take care of your injuries, it's safe here."
"Since we saved you, we will take care of it to the end"
Hearing Ji Weiqi say this, Ye Yufei and her glanced at each other, and said in surprise, "Why do you want to save me, I am obviously your enemy"
"Enemies are friends."
"Okay" Ye Yufei nodded, it seems that she has agreed to stand on the same side as us, "Then what are you going to do next?"
"Since you took the initiative to come to the door, you must know something" I said straight to the point, "Did Ji Weiyu already know what I had in my hand?"
"That's right, since you came out of the ancient tomb, you have been targeted, and later you went to see the people of the five veins, and they are all under her control."
"In this case, I won't hide it with you, in fact, I brought out a thing from the ancient tomb, which is a corpse jade bracelet, this bracelet is extremely rare, even the people of the five veins can only say a rough idea at present, as for its origin, it still needs to be examined in detail."
"Longling Silk Book"
"The silk book has been destroyed."
"What"
"Believe it or not, it's true."
The next day, Liu Lao sent someone to send a message, saying that we can go to Liulichang to find a person, he is also a branch of the five veins, but the family business is not big, and he is already in the middle of his life, it is said that he may know some details.
There is a blue-gray shop along the wall of the antique shop, all of which are a window and a door layout, which is divided into two rooms, the outside is a private seat, and only the guests of the big business will be invited to taste the tea and talk in detail. Every household is hanging a gold plaque on it, and some even hang a banner. Compared with the stalls, it is relatively high-end and formal, and there are fewer idlers, and most of the people who come and go are professional collectors or traders.
I straightened my collar and walked around. Those shop owners are also thieves, and when they look at me and talk a few words, they know that it is
Peer. My peers can't afford to coax, so they don't greet me as warmly as they do with the mallet, but let me watch it casually by myself.
The one recommended by Liu Lao is called "Yishufang", and there is an apricot yellow pick at the door, which is a bit of a country tavern. When I entered the store, the owner was dozing off against the wall. We had a brief conversation, and the boss let me look around the room.
I looked around the shelves and there was nothing particularly worth buying. I habitually looked around, and suddenly I noticed that there were no doors in the inner and outer rooms, only a curtain hung on it, and the curtain only blocked the upper half. I was a little shorter, and I could see the back room from below.
There was a black thing resting on the side of the sofa in the back room, and when I looked at it, it was actually two Buddha heads, and I immediately became a little interested.
"Boss, can I take a look at the Buddha top?"
When the boss heard me ask, he said "oh", turned around and went into the back room, and soon came out with two stone Buddha heads in his arms.
This Buddha head is Shakyamuni Buddha, not big, about the same size as a child's head, and the style belongs to the typical Tang Dynasty. The Buddha's head has a spiral high bun, a high nose and big ears, plump lips and wide cheeks, two long eyes with high corners and downward pupils. I touched the face of the Buddha's head with my hand, the stone was blue, and there were many natural cracks, it seemed that it had experienced many years of wind and rain, and moss marks could even be seen in the cracks.
"Boss, who got this thing?" I asked.
"Anhui. The Sun family received it. Late Tang Dynasty goods, absolutely true. ”
This so-called Sun family is not really received from the family surnamed Sun, but an incision in the antique shop. The antiques collected from the homes of local people are called those collected by the Sun family; bought from the guests who entered the store, called Zang's family to collect; He personally dug it from the grave in the ground and asked the Tong family to collect it. These are all old words, as for why these three surnames are chosen as hidden words, no one can say clearly.
The identification of the Buddha's head, in addition to looking at its Buddha statue style and stone texture, the most important thing is to look at its neck fracture. From the shape of the fracture, it can be roughly inferred that the posture of the Buddha statue is. The neck of this Buddha's head is very flat, only on the right side there is a narrow shallow groove, and the color of the stone skin and other parts is slightly different. It shows that the person who robs the Buddha has a very high means, and uses a special shovel to shovel from the right side of the neck of the Buddha statue, and wedges it into the stone neck at once, and then gently lifts it, and chisels off the entire Buddha head.
"How much is this Buddha top, I will accept it."
"Not for sale."
"Don't sell" I was stunned, "How can you open the door to do business and don't sell it, but you can tell me, why don't you sell it to me"
"These two Buddha heads, if you can see which one is real and which one is fake, I won't take a penny, if you can't see it, then I won't do this business."
I glanced at him and thought, "Sure enough, it's a person with five veins, and it's really extraordinary." ”
So I took the Buddha's head, swept my eyes over the new crack behind the Buddha's head, and my heart suddenly sudden, and then I put my eyes in front of the crack in the Buddha's head and looked at it carefully, and sniffed again, "This should be fake." ”
The boss also frowned, "How can you see it?"
"If you want to prove the authenticity, there is a way, but this method is irreversible, once this method is taken, this Buddha head can be ruined, in case I look away, the boss should not feel distressed"
The boss glanced at me and said with a smile, "I can't see how much ability you have, I know what you want to say, since that's the case, I won't let you do it." ”
In fact, in the counterfeiting of the Buddha's head, there is an extremely rare technique called Mao Tuo method. There is a kind of stone called Maoshi, which has a soft texture, strong plasticity, and is easy to color, especially suitable for reproduction
The Buddha's head is old, and it can imitate the moss pattern and weathering pattern vividly, and it is extremely difficult to distinguish. But there is also an obvious flaw in the Mao Tuo method, that is, the stone material. The sandstone Buddha head, which is relatively hard in stone, falls to the ground and is torn apart; And the fakes carved by the Mao Tuo method will shatter into dozens of pieces with obtuse edges when dropped to the ground.
"Little brother, if I guessed correctly, you should be a distinguished guest from Yuling."
"Don't dare, don't dare, Liu Lao recommended you to me, I came to visit you today."
"Elder Liu told me that I heard that you have encountered a tricky thing recently."
"Exactly."
"Alas, I'm ashamed to say it, I think although I am a person in the five veins, but I am a shallow one, Liu Lao recommended me, I am like sitting on pins and needles, I'm afraid I can't help you much. Besides, your Dragon Bone Hall is already dealing in antiques, and you are also peers, what is it that can make you difficult?"
"Corpse jade bracelet, I don't know if you know."
When the boss heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned, and then said, "We have a family motto in our five veins, never be fake, and treat people with sincerity." So in my shop, there is not even a single fake, at least with my eyesight, there is no fake. ”
"What do you mean by that" I was a little surprised, thinking that what he said was a bit wrong, as if he was not on the same channel.
"To be honest, I do know something about this corpse jade bracelet, this bracelet suddenly appeared twenty years ago, and it was a time without exception."
"Did this bracelet cause an uproar back then?"
"On the contrary, this thing disappeared as soon as it came out and never passed through the market."
"And what do you mean by that?"
"Removing the false and retaining the truth, the purpose of the five veins, however, because of this bracelet, there are differences within the five veins." I can probably guess this, as an authoritative treasure appraisal agency, if Wumai also fakes, wouldn't it be equivalent to being a judge for himself? Therefore, a good treasure connoisseur will never dare to touch a "fake" word, as long as there is such a crime, the brand can be completely smashed.
"Is this bracelet a fake?"
"Definitely."
"The more you talk about me, the more confused I become, what the hell does that mean?"
"This is really telling the truth, and falsehood is telling lies, but sometimes the truth and falsehood are not so simple to judge, and we have to lie because of some other factors."
I frowned, not understanding why he suddenly said that.
"Since Elder Liu recommended you here, it means that the matter of the year is that he also hopes to have an end."
"What the hell happened back then"
"In fact, the inside story of this matter is very deep, and what I know is only some skins, even within the five veins, few people know the details."
"You mean it involves the five veins"
"That's true"
“”
When he said this, I couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
"If this corpse jade ancient bracelet is related to the five veins, this story is much more complicated, more than 20 years ago, this bracelet was born, and it happened to be in the hands of the five veins, there should be a lot of insider information behind it to excavate, and it is even possible that the things of Ji Yueru back then are likely to be involved with the people of the five veins."
