Early the next morning, the first thing Yu Fei did when he got up was to put Yu Chan and Zhi Lian Boy in his right hand and rub them for a long time. He wanted to see if the energy of chaos could regenerate after a night. But he was disappointed.
Yes, no matter how much he played with it, he never felt the cool numbness again. It seemed that the energy of chaos could no longer be reproduced.
Yu Fei had no choice but to give up, and could only hope to gain something in Chaotian Palace today.
After breakfast, Yu Fei took a taxi and went straight to Chaotian Palace.
Chaotian Palace is located on Yecheng Mountain on the east side of Mochou Road in Shuiximen. It was the seat of Zongmingguan Imperial Academy in the Southern Dynasties. In the Ming Dynasty, it was a place for the court to practice etiquette before holding grand ceremonies. It was also a place where bureaucrats and civil and military officials learned to meet the emperor.
The place. The Chaotian Palace built before the Qing Dynasty was destroyed during the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom war. Today's Chaotian Palace ancient building complex was rebuilt on the original site of the early Qing Dynasty between 1866 and 1870, from the fifth to the ninth year of Tongzhi in the Qing Dynasty. It was built from the Song, Yuan and Ming Dynasties.
The Taoist buildings were transformed into Confucian Confucian temples and Jiangning government schools. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the Nationalist Government opened the Nanjing Chaotian Palace ancient building complex into the Nanjing Capital High Court. It is now the only antique trading market approved by the Ningdu government.
The antique buildings are complemented by all kinds of antiques, and walking there feels like traveling through time and space.
Yu Fei did not go into those shops. Once he came to the shops, there were regular customers, and he was not interested in individual customers like Fei. More importantly, Yu Fei did not come to see antiques. His goal was to touch these shops even if there were regular customers.
The objects will also be carefully hidden. It would be difficult for a young man like Yu Fei to touch them. After all, Yu Fei is too young, and his outfit does not look like a wealthy one.
The scale of Chaotian Palace is much larger than that of Tianning Temple in Yangcheng, and there are street stalls everywhere, with no end as far as the eye can see. Yu Fei found the area selling jade, but to his disappointment, the quality of the jade was really
It's so bad. I could tell at a glance that it was shoddily made, and I knew without touching it that there was absolutely no spiritual energy.
He walked around the jade area like a horse, stopping to look at a few pieces of jade carefully and touching them on an excuse, but unfortunately, there was no piece of jade that made him feel the presence of chaos.
Just as he was about to leave, he was suddenly attracted by a small stall at the corner. The goods on the stall were very few, only a dozen items in total, and they were not in a series. There were pottery jars, porcelain bottles, worn books, and
There were several presidential badges from special periods. What attracted Yu Fei was a jade cong beside the stall. Although it was not as white as a chicken bone, it still looked like an old object.
Yu Fei knelt down in front of the stall. In order to prevent the stall owner from noticing his intention and asking for a high price, Yu Fei did not go straight to the jade cong as soon as he got up.
He pretended to pick up a damaged old book on the stall. The old book was not well preserved. There were traces of moth damage on the first few pages, and many words were blurred. A few words could be vaguely seen on the cover:
The Sinful Old Society. The back cover is well preserved. You can see that it was published by Shanghai People's Publishing House in 1964. The whole book is less than a hundred pages, and the paper has become yellow and brittle. There is nothing special about it. This kind of book is not worth it.
A few bucks.
The stall owner was an old man in his fifties or sixties. He rolled his eyelids and glanced at Yu Fei. When he saw a young man with hairless mouth, he lowered his eyelids and ignored Yu Fei at all.
Yu Fei didn't care. He picked up the book with his left hand and flipped through two pages with his right hand.
But something unexpected happened to Yu Fei. He clearly felt a cool numbness in his right hand again.
Yu Fei was stunned. He always thought that only jade could replenish the energy of chaos in his right hand. After all, people have believed that jade has spirit since ancient times. The reason why he came to Chaotian Palace today was also for the jade, but he didn't
What comes to mind is that, unintentionally, he absorbed the energy of chaos from an old book and it was so strong. Could it be that this book has anything in common with The Lotus Boy and Yu Chan?
The jade cicada is from the Han Dynasty, and the holding lotus boy is from the Ming Dynasty. They are both old items of my age. Could it be that this book is also an old item? Yu Fei couldn't help but look at the book carefully. Although it is several decades old, but
It's not a rarity. In some eras, it was kept in university libraries, and the quality is much better than this one.
If there is anything unusual, it is the back cover of the book. Compared to the thin and brittle pages and the damaged cover, the back cover seems a bit too thick, and it is also a little too well preserved.
Ziyun, let's go back. This place is noisy. What's there to see? The girl talking is in her early twenties, carrying a picture folder, and she herself is like a beautiful and tranquil picture, with extremely delicate and natural facial features.
The carvings gave people an unreal feeling, as if they were in a dream. She frowned and looked at the bustling crowd around her, as if she didn't want to stay there for even a moment.
Ah, Feifei, you are an outsider here. This place is the largest antique market in Ningdu. When I was a child, my father often took me here, but later he said that I was a girl and wouldn’t let me come. I finally came here this time,
Let me take you around. Let me tell you, don't look at these people pretending to be experts, but in fact 99% of them are half-hearted. Look at that person, right, he is the one flipping through a broken book.
Needless to say, the man who writes books is a newbie in the industry. It is unreasonable not to be ripped off. The girl named Ziyun’s surname is Dong, and her family is also engaged in an antique-related business. However, because her father does not want her to pursue this career again,
Road, so it has been a long time since she came to the antique market. However, she thinks very highly of herself, thinking that when it comes to understanding antiques, he is first and she is second. And the person she is referring to is Yu Fei.
Boss, how can I sell this book? Yu Fei is not stupid enough to study it in front of the stall owner, so he wants to buy it and go back and take a closer look.
The old man opened his eyes and saw that what Yu Fei was asking about was the broken book. He said with a lack of interest: Two hundred.
Two hundred yuan is definitely a sky-high price for this book, but just because it can replenish the energy of chaos in his right hand, Yu Fei would buy it even if it was four hundred yuan, let alone two hundred yuan.
Just when Yu Fei wanted to buy it.
A girl next to me yelled: Why don't you grab two hundred dollars? This book looks so bad, and it's not a rare book. Why should it be sold for two hundred dollars? It was Ziyun who spoke. Because of her family's business, she was interested in antiques.
I still understand a little bit, but now that I see the stall owner Shili fooling a person of his own age, I can't help but complain.
Now Yu Fei is in trouble. This girl is telling the truth. If he still insists on buying, I am afraid the stall owner will become suspicious.
Seeing the hesitation in Yu Fei's eyes, and seeing that a fish about to be hooked was about to be frightened away, the stall owner's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he said viciously: Girl, if you don't understand, don't talk nonsense.
Zi Yun, who said I don't understand, you know what I do, said unconvinced, and then turned to persuade Yu Fei: Hey, don't be fooled, let alone two hundred for that book, no one picked it up even if it was left on the side of the road.
.
Yu Fei smiled bitterly in his heart and said: If you are able, you can also throw a book that can replenish the chaos energy in my right hand and pick it up for me on the side of the road.
Whether you want to buy it or not, I won’t sell it yet, said the stall owner.
Wait. Yu Fei quickly stopped him, thinking that in the eyes of this girl, he was just a dumb kid who didn't understand anything. If that was the case, he would be completely stunned.
Yu Fei turned to look at Zi Yun angrily and said angrily: I said, who are you and what are you doing? What does it have to do with you that I buy my book? Don't say two hundred, just two thousand. As long as I am willing, you
Do you care?
Ziyun was dumbfounded by Yu Fei's unscrupulous attempt to grab the white spot. She never thought that there was such a good person in the world. She was obviously helping him, but she was afraid that he would be fooled, so he actually got angry at her. It was really unreasonable.
If you can't move, you can go backwards
I'm doing it for your own good. Do you know that this book is not worth two hundred yuan at all? Don't bite Lu Dongbin because you don't know a good heart.
Yu Fei sneered: I think you are a dog and a rat meddling in other people's business. Who are you? I spend the money happily. What do you have to do with me? Yu Fei took out two hundred yuan and handed it to the stall owner, and said: Brother
Nothing else but money
Ziyun was choked and felt uncomfortable, and she couldn't help but feel angry.
The girl named Feifei quickly grabbed her and whispered: Forget it, if he falls in love, let him go. There is no need to be angry with such a person.
Dong Ziyun angrily said to Fei: You deserve to be unlucky. Wait and see how you cry. Then he took Leng Yufei and prepared to go back. When Yu Fei took advantage of her, she lost interest in shopping anymore.
Yu Fei asked the stall owner for another plastic bag and put the book in it. The stall owner didn't expect that Yu Fei could really spend two hundred yuan to buy a shabby book. He couldn't help but shook his head. This book was something he bought while walking around.
Xiang paid 30 cents a pound for it, let alone 200, and even if Yu Fei paid 2 yuan, he would sell it.
Then, Yu Fei took advantage of the situation and picked up the jade cong. However, the movement was a bit too big, and the stall owner couldn't help but remind him: handle it with care, you can't afford to pay for it if it breaks.
Yu Fei didn't argue with him. If this jade cong could also replenish the energy of chaos in his right hand, then he would have made a lot of money today. However, it turns out that there are not so many cheap things in the world. Although the jade cong has a simple shape
, but there was no trace of chaos coming from it, and Yu Fei had no choice but to put it down. However, he was overjoyed to receive this book today.
Seeing that it was already close to noon, Yu Fei was not interested in shopping anymore. More importantly, he now wanted to go back and study the book in his hand carefully.
There is a lotus-bearing boy with a Zigang model hidden in the gift of Ziyu Guanyin. What kind of gift will he receive from this old book? Whether he can bear not to study it on the spot can be regarded as Yu Fei's calm mind.
