Gu Zhengyan touched his chin and did not take the ancient mirror immediately. Instead, he asked uncertainly, "Xiao Shen, do you really not need it?"
Shen Yu nodded with great certainty, "It's not necessary at all. The ancient mirror should be returned to its original owner and returned to Mr. Da Gu.
“In this way, the ancient mirror can return to its original heritage and avoid accidents.
"It can also avoid the disorder of the aura caused by too many Feng Shui instruments and better maintain the balance of the five elements of Feng Shui in the house."
After speaking, Shen Yu handed the ancient mirror back to Gu Zhengyan again, but at the moment of handover, something unexpected happened.
A ball of spiritual energy quietly emerged from the ancient mirror, and penetrated into his body from the palm of his left hand at lightning speed.
Shen Yu only felt a slight warm air rush in instantly. First, it quickly traveled around the meridians in his body. Wherever it went, the meridians seemed to be nourished and dredged by this spiritual energy. Finally, this spiritual energy slowly gathered, Stored in his Dantian.
This feeling was completely different from before. Compared with the spiritual energy of the old banyan tree and Erlang Zhenjun's Soushan Conquering Demon Statue, this time, Shen Yu felt that this spiritual energy planted a spiritual seed in his body, and then immediately quietly dormant.
Shen Yu was shocked.
But he tried his best to stay calm. He didn't have time to carefully feel the wonderful changes of this group of spiritual energy in his body. Instead, he quickly scanned the reactions of the people around him.
Gu Zhengyan looked as usual. After taking the ancient mirror, he carefully wrapped it layer by layer with the bright red cloth and put it back in the wooden box.
The others were still the same as before, either talking softly or absent-mindedly, without any change in expression on their faces, as if they were completely unaware of the strange incident that had just happened to Shen Yu.
Even my sister Qin, there is nothing unusual and she is replying to her subordinate’s work WeChat message.
Shen Yu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but the doubts in his heart became more and more intense.
Although there were cases of absorbing antique spiritual energy or treasure energy before, it was not so frequent. Shen Yu didn't know why it was like this recently.
But after thinking about it, this spiritual energy should be a blessing rather than a curse for me.
"Lao Wang, Xiao Shen, Yu Qin, come with me to my house to taste tea." Gu Zhengyan picked up the wooden box and enthusiastically invited everyone.
After this incident, Shen Yu's reputation in Feng Shui metaphysics also spread on Hong Kong Island. Of course, this is all a story later.
…
In the Gu family's reception room, tea mist is rising.
Sunlight shines through the antique carved window lattice, casting mottled light and shadow. The patterns carved on it, such as plum blossoms, orchids, bamboos, chrysanthemums, flowers, birds, fish and insects, shine vividly on the ground, like a natural ink painting, adding a bit of quaint charm to the interior.
Gu Zhengyan and Wang Lao were sitting on the two official hat chairs at the main seat respectively.
Shen Yu and Pei Yuqin were sitting on the guest sofa to accompany each other.
On the rosewood table in front of Shen Yu was an ancient, elegant, three-legged copper stove with pierced ears.
"Xiao Shen, if you want to see this broken copper furnace, Old Wangtou, you can look at it, but if you don't want to, don't look at it. Don't force it!" Gu Zhengyan said in a very concerned tone.
Mr. Wang originally took a sip of the tea with a leisurely expression, and the fragrance of tea spread in his mouth. He was currently intoxicated with the fragrance of tea, and when he heard this, he almost took a sip of hot tea.
He put down the tea cup and pretended to be angry: "Well, your surname is Gu. I, a seventy-year-old man, have worked tirelessly for you and restored the old tree in the town house to its original state. You
Are you trying to dismantle me here?
"Humph! If I had known this, don't call me Brother Wang. Even if you call me Old Wang, I won't come to the place where you are doing wrong."
Gu Zhengyan did not give in at all, straightened his back, and replied confidently: "Don't tell me these useless things, you old boy took away so many antiques from me, you don't know how many antiques you have stolen from me?
"Now I'm just asking you to help me, and you're still here babbling? You can let Xiao Shen appraise other antiques, but asking him to appraise the so-called Xuande furnace, isn't this deliberately embarrassing?
"There is not even a recognized standard instrument in the world. How can Xiao Shen identify it?"
When Mr. Wang heard this, a sly smile appeared on his face. There was a bit of embarrassment and helplessness in that smile, as if he was trying to take advantage of others' soft words and short hands.
He lowered his head slightly, as if thinking about how to respond, and unconsciously rubbed his fingers on the edge of the tea cup.
After a moment, Mr. Wang slowly raised his head, with a hint of cunning in his eyes. He cleared his throat first, and then said: "Hey, brother Gu, don't misunderstand my hard work.
"The reason why I asked Xiao Shen to identify this copper furnace is not to deliberately embarrass him. You also know that it is extremely difficult to find a standard Xuande furnace in this world. But Xiao Shen is very good in the field of treasure appraisal.
It can be said that he is amazingly talented. Maybe he can use his spiritual eyes to find some clues from the subtleties of this copper furnace?
"Furthermore, the origin of my copper furnace is extremely unusual. It is very likely that it is a real Xuande furnace. If it is a real Xuande furnace, it will undoubtedly be extremely important for us to delve into the development of ancient bronze craftsmanship.
Help.
"It can even fill some gaps in the field of copper furnace research. Do you think this is true?"
As Mr. Wang spoke, he gestured to Gu Zhengyan with his eyes, and there was a faint smile hanging on the corner of his mouth, as if everything was planned by him.
Shen Yu felt like a mirror in his mind, okay, these two brothers are clearly singing along.
One plays a good role in the light and seems to speak for himself, while the other plays a bad role in the dark and lets himself appraise the treasures for him.
Take the Bagua Feng Shui mirror made of polished copper just now, for example. It was actually a bait carefully set by them. Its purpose was to test whether they had real abilities and whether they could see the secret.
If they show enough treasure appraisal ability and Feng Shui knowledge, then they will let them appraise this Xuan Lu.
On the other hand, if you perform poorly and fail to meet their expectations, you may not have the chance to touch this Xuande furnace.
Nodding slightly towards the two of them, Shen Yu said with a smile: "Old Wang, since you trust this junior so much, I will take a look first.
"But as Mr. Gu said, there is no standard instrument as a reference, so it is extremely difficult to identify, but I will try my best." After that, he stood up slowly, walked to the three-legged copper stove, squatted down and looked at it carefully. .
This copper stove is medium in size, with a flat rim and a wide opening, and a rounded belly.
The furnace wall is extremely thick, and it is obvious that no amount of copper material was spared.
The surface color is like a deep chestnut shell, which is very quaint and elegant. If you shine a flashlight on the inner wall, it seems that a gleaming precious light appears.
What's interesting is that when the flashlight is removed, Baoguang becomes restrained and plain again.
Looking at the bottom, there is a six-character regular script inscription "Xuande Year of the Ming Dynasty".
"Xuande furnace, another Xuande furnace. It looks like we have to spend a lot of money again!"
