"998,998, take home the treasure of the Western Zhou Dynasty. If you can't buy it, you will suffer a loss. If you can't buy it, you will be cheated. Little brother, hurry up and pay for it!"
The stall owner talked about the jingle, frothing all over the place, and became more and more enthusiastic as he talked.
Ding Xiaoyi felt that if he didn't buy it, he would be a bit sorry for his eloquence.
However, although this thing looks very old, when I hold it in my hand, I feel that the color of this thing is a little different from the bronze I fished out.
Thinking of this, he looked back at Pangpang, only to see Pangpang smiling and saying nothing, looking at him with his sneaky little eyes.
He made it clear that he was looking at a joke.
Based on my understanding of Pangpang, there must be nothing good about this smiling face.
If there weren't too many people here, he would have wanted to take out the [Mirror] to see what it was.
But Ding Xiaoyi thought about it and paid for it.
If I don’t criticize anything else, just the carving work, the price of 998 is actually not bad, and it’s actually quite good to take it home as a piece of art.
The stall owner accepted the cash handed over by Ding Xiaoyi, but without change, he picked up a plate.
"Oh, I'm sorry that I just opened the business and I don't have any change on hand. I, Liu Sansheng, never take advantage of others. It is fate that we meet you today. As the saying goes, a sword matches a hero, and a treasure is given to a destined person. This means that we know each other.
It’s fate.”
To be honest, if it weren't for the stall owner's acting skills, I really couldn't bear to expose him. I would probably throw this broken plate on the ground and no one would want it.
However, although the thing is a bit broken, it is engraved with the Nine Palaces and Bagua. Even now, no one can recognize what it is.
You will naturally recognize the formation if you are familiar with it.
"interesting!"
Looking at the Bagua patterns on it, the carvings are also very particular. They seem to be very different from those drawn in the formation book. I wanted to take it over and take a closer look.
But the stall owner quickly wrapped the things in red cloth: "Little brother, these are treasures. You must put them away when you go back. There are many people here, so you can enjoy them slowly when you get back."
Seeing the cautious look of the stall owner, Ding Xiaoyi smiled knowingly and did not expose him.
After picking up the things, I took Shuang'er and the others to continue shopping.
As soon as the person left, the stall owner showed a bit of melancholy in his mischievous eyes: "Hey, the young people nowadays are amazing. It's a pity that this pair of golden boys and girls are so talented and beautiful that I almost became tempted to accept them as apprentices.
"
After saying that, he glanced at the fat and white figure behind him, but his face became unusually solemn, and he muttered in his heart: "That bald man is so annoying, he stares at me all over my body."
"That's all, it's not advisable to stay here for a long time, otherwise that kid will come back to his senses later and come to settle accounts with me."
As he spoke, the stall owner took a roll of red cloth on the ground in his hand.
I don’t know how it was rolled, but with a few clicks, the huge red cloth turned into a cloth bag.
There is also a Bagua picture embroidered on the cloth bag.
Those miscellaneous things were all put in the cloth pockets, and they were so tightly packed that they were not exposed at all.
Immediately, he put the cloth bag on his back, and in a few steps, he disappeared into the vast sea of people and disappeared without a trace.
Shuang'er and Pangpang hadn't gone far, and Shuang'er hesitated for a moment before he said, "Master, this thing... isn't real."
If it were anything else, Shuang'er might not be able to notice any difference.
But bronzes are different. There are several of them at home, and Ding Xiaoyi puts them all in the living room as decorations.
Shuang'er wiped it every day and came into contact with it a lot. Even if he couldn't tell the details, he could tell just by feeling that these two things were probably fakes.
However, both children can feel the moisture in it, so how could I not notice it myself.
"It doesn't matter. I didn't really buy this thing as a treasure. I just saw how clever the carving was and bought it as a decoration."
Same things, different values, the key is how people view them.
If you treat it as a handicraft and buy an ornament you like, it is the same as spending thousands of dollars on a figure.
Some people may think that it is not worth spending so much money to buy a palm-sized toy. It is better to go to the bathing center with the money and enjoy the care and whisper of the young lady, and the soft fragrance of the fingers.
But for those who like me, it doesn’t matter what kind of girls or aunties I am. What I buy is not toys, but a wife, faith, and love.
As for spending a thousand yuan to buy a baby or something, he would not have such a big dream.
As he spoke, he opened the red cloth.
Pick up the Bagua disc just now and look at it carefully.
Although the material of the plate is ordinary, the Bagua graphics on it are carved very accurately.
"For this gossip, the two dollars is quite worth it," he said jokingly to Shuang'er.
I plan to take it back and hang it on the wall. It will also be a good reference when studying formations.
However, just as he turned the plate around casually, the smile on his face suddenly froze. He looked at the label at the bottom of the plate and felt a sudden realization.
Seeing that his expression was wrong, Shuang'er turned his head and took a look. There was a small label on the back of the plate: [Price: 998]
Looking at the price tag and thinking about the bronze ball he bought, Ding Xiaoyi instantly felt like he had been cheated.
When I looked back, I saw that the stall owner had disappeared.
A typical owner who trades one gun for one place.
Seeing this, Pangpang finally couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha, in ancient times there were horse bones worth a thousand gold, but now there is scrap metal worth a thousand dollars."
Seeing Fatty smiling so happily, and remembering his smiling face just now, Ding Xiaoyi couldn't help but said with resentment on his face: "Pangpang, you are not kind, you have seen it a long time ago, right?"
"You are a true gentleman watching chess without saying anything. Why don't you suffer more losses at such a young age?"
"Haha, thank you."
Ding Xiaoyi curled his lips and stuffed the food into Meatball's belly. In fact, it was not that he felt sorry for the money, but that he was completely disgusted by the price tag on the back of the wooden plate.
Seeing this, Pangpang smiled and said: "Actually, you are not at a loss, after all, that old guy is still somewhat virtuous, so just treat it as a good relationship."
"Huh!"
Hearing what Fatty said, Ding Xiaoyi couldn't help but said in surprise: "You mean..."
Pangpang nodded: "That kid is not one of your kind. He probably escaped from a foreign land. Judging from his appearance, I'm afraid he is practicing the right way. Calculating, you guys are destined to be together."
The fate that Pang Pang talks about refers to the complete collection of positive formation methods studied by Ding Xiaoyi.
According to the ancient times, although Ding Xiaoyi had not entered the temple, he still had a glimpse of the right path. As long as he met someone and introduced him, it was just a matter of course for him to enter the temple.
Ding Xiaoyi suddenly realized what he said, but immediately his eyes became strange: "Don't tell me, he is the Taoist priest you said."
I heard Pang Pang and Old Man Zao talking about the profession of Taoist priest before.
He knows astronomy at the top and geography at the bottom. He can draw freehand brushwork with a brush, paint landscapes with ink, feel the pulse of life and death, and look at the atmosphere to see wealth.
In short, I have formed the concept in my mind that Taoist priests = high-level people.
I never thought that seeing her today would completely shatter the fantasy in my mind.
"Ugh..." Pangpang was speechless.
After all, there is no shortage of Taoist masters, but occasionally there are some unscrupulous Taoist priests.
At this point, it would be better if you were an ascetic monk like the Quanzhen Sect, but if you were an ascetic monk like the Zhengyi Sect, you would be more free and easy-going.
After all, everything has its pros and cons, and you can't just kill them all with one blow.
Let’s put this matter aside.
He quickly realized a problem: "Pangpang, you just said that he is not from here, but came from a foreign land. Do you mean that people and things in foreign lands can come to reality?"
If this is really the case, then the problem is serious.
He has seen many strange and strange beasts in foreign lands, and the strength in foreign lands is generally much stronger than in reality.
But if you escape from a foreign land, I'm afraid there will be big problems.
"Don't worry, things are not that easy."
Pangpang patted his shoulder and comforted him.
But there was something in my heart that I didn't say. It's not easy now. When the black moon makes the hole bigger, it won't be easy.
A few more days passed in the blink of an eye.
In the past few days, I took Shuang'er and Pangpang shopping for food every day, and I also went to the mall to buy some new clothes for Shuang'er.
Although on the surface she is his maid, when it comes to spending money, he is more like her husband.
I buy all kinds of things without any intention of saving money for myself.
But overall, the days are quite fulfilling.
Although they didn't have the opportunity to come out and play together.
But Datou and the others found a new toy, and they had fun playing in their own psychic space every day.
So much so that the bearded man named Fairhold.
She has become the personal nanny for most of them.
(??▽?)?:heating up
Fairhold: "Here we go!"
(????)?: Cool down.
Fairhold: "Alright!"
(?????):add water
Fairhold: "I'll move it."
In order to make these ancestors happy and to save their own lives, they can only cooperate with Datou and develop all kinds of weird and new skills that are harmless to humans and animals.
For example, what about magma hot springs, magma fried rice, magma sauna, magma stewed rice, magma mud bath...etc.
Every time I think of myself, I am the backbone of the Drodchart family.
Now that he has fallen into this fate, Fairhold is on the verge of tears. He can't help but cry in his heart, but there is nothing he can do.
What? Hostage-taking?
Hmm...this idea also flashed in Fairjord's mind.
But let’s not mention the big head that has no hindrance in the magma.
Just Atun who drinks magma as water, and plays with squirrels by digging into his own magma.
Fairhold immediately gave up this stupid idea.
I feel that this is not a hostage-taking, this is clearly a high-level execution, so I don't dare to have the slightest thought other than to accept my fate and bow my head.
The days passed day by day.
The bag on Fatty's head is getting smaller and smaller.
From its original appearance of being about the size of a steamed bun, it gradually shrank to the size of a fingernail.
But until now, he still couldn't remember what happened that day and who knocked him out.
This made Pangpang depressed for a long time.
Fortunately, it doesn't matter if you can't remember it. Anyway, it's right to hang it on Fu Jié's head first.
However, the days of leisure have not passed for a few days.
At night, a loud buzzing sound suddenly broke this rare tranquility into pieces.
Under the huge rumbling sound, there were countless lightning and thunder over S City.
What made people even more horrified was that the foreign black ball hanging over City S actually started to move slowly and floated towards the north of City S.
