First-class Celestial Master [Rebirth]
Chapter 8 Dream Eater Tapir
The phone rang for a while, but Zhou Tong didn't answer.
Looking at the strange number, Zhengzheng asked, "Who is it? Why didn't you answer the phone? Hang up the harassing call and get blacklisted!"
"Not urgent."
The phone is still ringing persistently, Zhou Tong's ringtone is melodious, which sounds very comfortable, but Zheng Zheng doesn't know why he can feel the caller's anxiety from the ringtone.
... This is not the case with 110.
Zhou Tong picked up the phone with a pinch, and Shen Hongwen's trembling voice immediately rang out: "Zhou, Mr. Zhou, are you busy now?" The tone was respectful, not at all like Zhou Tong's bossy words yesterday Looks like a liar.
Zhou Tong put on airs on purpose: "I have something to do at hand, what's the matter?"
"Mr. Zhou, I, I, I would like to invite you to come to my house."
"Going to your house so late?" Zhou Tong frowned slightly and said in embarrassment.
"That's right." Shen Hongwen said, "There are some situations in my family..." He gritted his teeth after saying a few vague words, and clearly explained the situation: "It's like this, I was just at four o'clock. Most of the time I felt sleepy, and I dreamed of that woman again after lying on the sofa for a while!! But this time the dream was different, the woman turned her head when I patted her on the shoulder, she She has no face... she has no face...!" Shen Hongwen started to tremble again, "Then I woke up from fright, and after waking up, I saw her again from the window!" Afterwards, Zhou Tong tremblingly said nothing. I didn't quite understand it, it was the same as being insane.
Zhou Tong: "..."
Over there, Shen Hongwen was obviously frightened. I'm afraid his soul would be scared out of his wits. Zhou Tong felt a little sorry. He coughed and said, "Then wait for me a little bit, I'll probably be busy with things for about an hour. .”
Shen Hongwen said: "It's okay! I'll wait as long as you want! Where are you, Mr. Zhou? I'll send a car to pick you up!"
"In the old street."
Before hanging up the phone, Shen Hongwen insisted that Zhou Tong must come, he was still not at ease after reminding him several times, and completely gave up his atheism.
After hanging up the phone, he said with a straight face, "I heard Shen Hongwen's voice, and he is still looking for you? What is he looking for? What happened to you yesterday? I didn't think carefully about what happened yesterday. I don't know that kind of person..."
"It's okay." Zhou Tong smiled and put the phone in his pocket, "I have a business relationship with him."
correct:"???"
Zhou Tong calculated that it was still early, and he said to Zhengzheng: "Let's go to another store, I want to buy some small things."
It was within his expectation that Shen Hongwen would look for him. The handshake yesterday was not simply to confirm Ten Risha, but also to play tricks on Shao Ronghua's palm. The dream that should have been dreamed was delayed until tonight.
As for the dream that Shen Hongwen had just now... he was also responsible for it...
If he didn't completely dispel Shen Hongwen's resistance towards him, he couldn't help Shen Hongwen.
Of course, business will be much easier.
Just as Duanzheng was about to ask Zhou Tong what he was going to buy, he heard someone shouting behind him: "The little friend in front, go slowly, please stay!"
Zhou Tong stopped walking when he heard this, and when he looked back, Shao Ronghua trotted after them. The old man was obviously very tired after chasing them all the way.Zhou Tong greeted him politely and told Shao Ronghua to take a short walk, and asked, "Old Mr. Shao, what's the matter?"
"It was thanks to my little friend who pointed out the maze in time, so that I didn't lose all my old face. If it was because of me that this young man bought such a fake at a high price, then in the old street and even the entire A city's treasure appraisal industry, I'm not the best. I can't get along anymore." Shao Ronghua sighed, his attitude was much more kind than the haughty and arrogant look he had seen before.
Zhou Tong smiled when he heard the words, his dark eyebrows formed two crescents, "It's too serious."
"Just now I heard that my little friend wants to buy a small item, what do you want to buy?"
Zhou Tong thought for a while and said, "The jade tapir."
"Jade tapir?" Shao Ronghua was taken aback. He thought that a young man like Zhou Tong would buy some fashionable things, bronzes, porcelain or some beautiful jewelry for his girlfriend. He didn't expect to buy a jade tapir at all. tapir.
Tapirs have magical powers in mythology. They can devour nightmares and leave behind sweet dreams. They are regarded as gods to protect dreams in a few places.
But most of the beautiful jades are carved into patterns such as Pixiu, lion, Guanyin, Tathagata, etc. The twelve zodiac signs are even more popular, and few of them are engraved as tapirs.If Zhou Tong just wanted to find an ordinary jade tapir, he would definitely be able to find it in the old street, but from Zhou Tong's point of view, the jade tapir he wanted was definitely not an ordinary jade tapir.
The inscription on the blue-and-white porcelain vase from the Xuande period just now is indeed a loophole that cannot be ignored. However, the imitation of the porcelain vase is too realistic. Looking at the body, glaze color, and pattern of the vase, one can already be sure of its authenticity. Under the concept, it is difficult for him to see this tiny loophole of recognition.
Although there were factors of his carelessness, the imitators took advantage of the treasure appraiser's loopholes. Zhou Tong already had such stability and carefulness at a young age, which really made him unable not to pay attention.
For such a young man to have such a vision, either he grew up soaked in treasures, or he studied under a famous family.But he knew all the apprentices that those old fellows in City A had taken in. Thinking about it this way, he was even more curious about Zhou Tong's origin.
With a certain idea, Shao Ronghua's tone was even more friendly: "Coincidentally, I have a friend who specializes in selling some ancient jade. Why don't I lead the way and take my little friend for a stroll."
"Then Mr. Shao is in trouble."
"No trouble, no trouble, I don't know what to call my little friend?"
Zhou Tongdao: "My surname is Zhou, and my name is Tong." He stepped aside and introduced Zhengzheng, "This is my friend. His surname is Duan, and his name is Zhengzheng."
It's rare to get in touch with such an old man. He stood upright and hurriedly stood at attention, trying to show a good appearance of a socialist young man, but Shao Ronghua didn't even look at him, and all his attention was on Zhou Tong. .
Correct and wronged.
Zhou Tong followed Shao Ronghua into a shop, which was very far inside the old street, and there were not many customers in front of the door.
The old street is very long and there are many shops. Some people have counted them, and there are 130 shops in total. Most people will be tired of aesthetics and too lazy to walk the rest of the way. Most of them are very patient when they reach the end. You can often find good things too.
This is a small shop called "Lvyi". Inside the thick glass frame at the door, there is a pretty jade Ruyi on a sandalwood shelf. As soon as he entered the shop, Zhengzheng yelled out: "Damn, Beauty!"
Looking at Zhou Tong's reputation, the person sitting behind the counter is indeed an antique beauty.
The woman was wearing a well-tailored cheongsam. Although she was sitting on a chair, she could still see her exquisite figure from her curves. Her skin was snow-white, her cheeks were bright red, her eyes were slender and charming, and her lips were rosy. , holding a green bong in his hand, the smell of the cigarette is not heavy, but rather fragrant, the real exhalation is like blue.
"Old Shao, what brought you here." The woman laughed when she spoke, her red lips were slightly raised, and she was so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off her. Her probing eyes lingered on Zhou Tong and Zhengzheng who were behind Shao Ronghua After a circle, he moved away and looked at Shao Ronghua, "Who are these two little brothers?"
"Let me introduce you." Shao Ronghua said, "This is Duanmuqiu, Miss Duanmu, the owner of this Luyi shop, and this is Mr. Zhou Tongzhou. This..." Shao Ronghua looked at Duanzheng , Trying to think of a correct name, but I couldn't think of it, so I just gave up.
correct:"……"
He rushed to introduce himself before Shao Ronghua changed the subject: "My surname is Duan, my name is correct, I am correct, I am correct, I am correct, I am correct!"
Zhou Tong: "..."
Duanmuqiu: "..."
Zhengzheng blushed and heartbeat, saw Duanmu Qiuying's Qiushui Jiantong, and said shyly: "Look, we both have the word Duan in our surnames, what a coincidence."
Duanmuqiu burst out laughing, she ignored Zhengzheng, and asked Shao Ronghua: "Why did Mr. Shao bring the two of them here today?"
"Oh, that's right." Shao Ronghua said, "This little brother wants to buy a jade tapir."
"Jade tapir?" Duanmuqiu and Shao Ronghua had very similar reactions when they first heard that Zhou Tong wanted to buy a jade tapir, but the business was done a lot, and she had never seen a buyer before, so she was curious for a moment, she put down the cigarette stick, He took out two boxes from the shelf behind him, one blue and the other pink. When the boxes were opened, each was a delicately shaped jade tapir.
Duanmuqiu: "This is Zaoqing's fire-burned jade tapir, and this one is also from Zaoqing, but it is a green and white jade tapir. Brother Zhou bought the jade tapir to suppress evil or just to look good?"
Zhou Tong said: "Suppress evil spirits."
Duanmuqiu nodded. Most people buy jade for auspiciousness in suppressing evil spirits, but for some reason, when this brother Zhou said that he would use it to suppress evil spirits, she immediately found a feeling of fellowship in him, but... ... Duanmu Qiu's slender white hands reached into his cuffs and touched the jade bracelet on his wrist. The bracelet was as quiet as usual, without any reaction.
Without the spirit of cultivation, it doesn't look like a fellow-spirited person...
When Duanmuqiu was doing this action, Zhou Tong could clearly see what she was wearing on her wrist. The jade bracelet was full of freshness. It was obviously a high-grade magic weapon that had gone through many years. This Duanmuqiu was obviously from the inner sect. For a middle-aged man, the things she sells here should also have a lot of magic weapons.
He bought the jade tapir just to drive away evil spirits for Shen Hongwen. Ten Risha was connected with Meng, and when the dream was broken, Ten Risha would be solved naturally.
Looking at the strange number, Zhengzheng asked, "Who is it? Why didn't you answer the phone? Hang up the harassing call and get blacklisted!"
"Not urgent."
The phone is still ringing persistently, Zhou Tong's ringtone is melodious, which sounds very comfortable, but Zheng Zheng doesn't know why he can feel the caller's anxiety from the ringtone.
