189 Silver Mirror 1
Standing in the lobby, Garon casually walked around admiring the collection in the black column.
Leaving an intricately carved openwork gold bow, he walked over to a row of guardrails along the wall of the hall.
Inside the guardrail are thicker black pillars, which hold more valuable collections.
Garon took a few steps and stopped beside a group of lively college students.
The college students wore uniform black and blue uniforms, and there were eight people standing together. Three boys and four girls. They seem to be engaged in a heated debate about the collection.
"The blue wings of Antars represent freedom, cheerful bliss. The perfect kingdom of God that yearns for the sky is a mythological symbol that has been passed down for a long time in Antars. It must only be the great nobles who are qualified to have it. A blue ponytail girl said with a solemn expression. "It can't be the small merchant family you are talking about. ”
"It's true as usual, but it's different. You look at this part of him. It was the famous Asha mark, the most famous business alliance of the time. There are also special details that can also be seen in his birth, such as here, here, and there. Another boy with curly white hair retorted gently and unquestionably.
"I think Ke Lian is right, at that time, ordinary people were not allowed to build such things. ”
"Maybe it was secretly created and collected at that time? Just like many rich ladies like to participate in drinking parties with early morning revelry. ”
The students split into two sides, each supporting two people.
Garon stood to the side, admiring the collection they were debating.
It was a sky-blue sculpture of a winged wing. It is more than one meter tall and two meters wide. It looks like it's flying. The feather texture is carved in exceptional detail and lifelikeness. It's like the wings of a real giant eagle.
Garon could tell at a glance that this was one of the antique imitations that the old man had talked about. Although he couldn't get a closer look, a subtle spot in the base of his wings made him suspicious.
Involuntarily, Garon frowned. The gaze paused on the base where the meaning seemed to be cracked. The crack was not actually a crack, but was deliberately made. It takes on a distorted S-shape.
"You see that, too?"
An old white-haired gentleman on the side seemed to notice where Garon's gaze was. Dressed in a black tuxedo and standing strongly, he walked over to Garon and stood still, his eyes casually looking at the Azure Wings.
"The rumored Blue Wings represent freedom and the kingdom of God, but unfortunately this one is just a fake. The old man sighed.
"I'm not really sure, you're not as old as the old man. Garon smiled humbly.
"Not bad. It's already pretty good. The old man shook his head, "How much do you know about the Antas civilization?"
"I don't know much, but I've read about it in some classics. Garon selectively said some random information about this ancient civilization before Baigadi.
The old man suddenly became interested.
"Do you know a lot? So tell me what kind of collection this Azure Wing is a replica of at that time?"
"From the pattern texture. Judging by the details of the carvings, I feel that they are imitations of small merchants who have collected their own things. Garon spoke straight to his point.
"No, if it was a small merchant's collection, then he would dare to engrave the royal emblem of the time?" the old man shook his head.
"The royal symbol doesn't mean anything. ”
"You don't understand the draconian laws of the time. The indiscriminate use of the noble coat of arms is punishable by beheading. Not to mention the royal heraldic emblem. The old man said solemnly.
"That's because you don't know the special at that time, if I'm not mistaken, this thing must have been made in a special period at that time, Antars was already crumbling at that time, the edifice of power was about to collapse, and the royal family did not have such a binding force for a long time. Garon shook his head slightly in disapproval.
"How do you know how you can tell its exact age? It's a fake, after all, how do you know that counterfeiters won't tamper with the original?"
"Obviously, the shape of this wing. Spread your wings, such blue wings are everywhere. But you don't notice the heaviness and hesitation in it, and that's the point," Garon said, pointing to the roots of Azure Wings. "Do you see the shape of the wings? These are the wings of a red eagle. ”
"Red eagle?" the old gentleman frowned, he had never paid attention to what the prototype of the Azure Wings was.
"The Blue Wings were carved by the royal family's carvers from the royal family's domesticated blue eagles. The blue eagle cannot be found in the outside world at all, so the people outside can only replace it with the most similar red eagle wings. Unfortunately, there are still subtle differences between the two. And only during a special period would the sculptors of Baigadi imitate court objects with red carvings. Garon shook his head regretfully.
"I am amazed by your careful observation and knowledge. But you still haven't noticed the inscription on this collection. The old gentleman was still not convinced.
"The inscription is engraved with three symbols, which represent the three carvers involved. And as it happens, I recognize this symbol. It is the symbol of the famous Blue Wings, the most famous royal sculptor, Robert Negan. ”
"That doesn't mean anything, sir. Garon shook his head in disapproval.
"What about you? Who do you agree with?" the old gentleman suddenly turned his head to a schoolgirl who had unknowingly come over and listen.
This is a delicate girl wearing a blue and black school uniform on the top and white denim trousers on the bottom. She obviously listened attentively just now, and was suddenly hit by the old man, and she didn't seem to react at all, and she was a little confused.
"I think it all makes sense. ”
"Don't be nervous, kid. The old gentleman lowered his voice kindly, "I saw your gaze just now, and among so many people here, only the three of us noticed a few anomalies in this Azure Wing. You've been listening to it for so long, can you tell me what you think?"
Garon stood aside and looked at the girl.
At the age of eighteen or nineteen, his face is delicate, his complexion is delicate and fair, and his long black shawl hair is like a haode satin. She stood on one side, dark and cramped, giving a very innocent feeling. Especially her long legs, slender and round. The thin fabric clearly outlines the tight hips and thighs.
"You're too nervous. The old man shook his head, "Relax, think about it." You should be a student at Baigadi Women's University, right? It's not bad to be able to see so much at this age, believe in yourself. ”
Both Garon and he looked at the girl at this time, waiting for her answer.
The girl hesitated.
"Both gentlemen have a point, but I think this blue wing is indeed the work of the royal engraver in peacetime. I remember one detail. It seems that in the royal family at that time, there was a slight change in the blue wings given to the children of the royal family who were about to go to the territory."
As soon as the words fell. She heard a soft applause in front of her.
She looked up and saw the two people in front of her looking at her with admiration.
"You noticed a detail that none of us were paying attention to. The old gentleman smiled and said, "I didn't expect an ordinary female student to have such erudite knowledge." Can you tell me your name? Lovely kid. ”
"My name is Obenie," the girl looked down in embarrassment. There was some redness on the face. Obviously not good at facing praise from outsiders.
"Aubergie. The old man didn't know where to take out a black business card and handed it to the girl. "And then here's my business card. ”
Alberney took the business card in a daze, but there was nothing on it, only a big eye symbol.
"Keep it safe, this card will bring you good luck when you are in trouble. The old gentleman winked at the girl mysteriously.
Garon stood aside, quietly watching the old man play tricks.
It's obvious. This old man may be a big man who hides his identity. This can be seen from the bodyguards who are faintly scattered around him to protect him.
"Congratulations, lovely Miss Auburnie. It seems that this old gentleman is not your average visitor. He smiled kindly at the little girl.
Ou Beni's face was slightly red, and she didn't know what to say for a while while holding her business card.
"What about you? Is it funny to be so young and pretend to be old? Young people should be young people. The old man looked at Garon appreciatively, "Your knowledge is not much better than mine. I didn't expect the current generation of young people to have children like you. He also handed out a black business card. "This one is for you too. ”
Garon looked at the business card handed over by the old man, smiled slightly, and was about to speak.
"What a person!!" suddenly a loud roar came from outside the exhibition. "Alert !!"
The sound stopped abruptly. It was as if something had choked it off.
The people in the exhibition suddenly began to be noisy, and there was an uneasy commotion among the people, and some people with bodyguards quickly gathered all their people to protect themselves.
The same was true of the old gentleman here, but within seconds, seven male and female bodyguards dressed in different clothes quickly surrounded him, and at his signal, protected Garon and the girl named Aupenie inside.
"Stay biedong. The old man calmly admonished Garon and Orpenny. Garon and the girl both nodded quickly, looking a little nervous.
"Miga, you go out and see what is going on, be careful. The old man whispered to one of the bodyguards.
"Haode, sir. A grim-looking hook-nosed man nodded away from the crowd and cautiously leaned against the wall towards the gate, holding out a black pistol in his hand.
There were the same number of people who moved like him.
Garon also had a solemn and forcibly calm expression on his face.
Looks like it's about to start. He didn't want to show his abnormality early and be targeted. Otherwise, you will waste the advantage of the dark place that you have worked hard to create in the first place.
He looked through the gaps in the bodyguards around him to see what was going on.
The group of students on the side were also taken by a middle-aged man to hide in the corner at this time, and their faces were curious, some were panicked, and even excited.
Several middle-aged people not far away seemed to be extremely dissatisfied at this time, pulling out the matching guns they were wearing, and directing their subordinates to cooperate with the exhibition staff to maintain order in the venue.
At this time, the security guards in charge of the exhibition work also came out, and under the leadership of several team leaders, they calmed the emotions of the guests at the venue, and at the same time, a team of people also cautiously walked out of the door. (To be continued......)
