Almighty teacher system

485 The Eye of Truth
"Mr. Shen, do you believe in alchemy?" Jiang Baishi looked at Shen Yi in astonishment, not understanding how he, a teacher, would be interested in such things.

"It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not, but it is undeniable that alchemy really existed, and I am just interested in it." Shen Yi said with a smile.

Jiang Baishi nodded when he heard the words, and didn't say anything more, after all, what Shen Yi likes is his freedom.

"You're asking the right person. Pill furnaces are rare, and even fewer are well preserved, but I happen to know where to find them." Mao Chuan stroked his goatee and said with a narrowed smile.

"Really?" Shen Yi beamed with joy.

"However, he is quite precious about this thing. Whether he sells it to you or not is up to you." Mao Chuan said seriously.

"No problem, thank you, Master Mao." Shen Yi nodded repeatedly.

"Then I'll take you there. It's in a shop on this street, not far away." Mao Chuan shook his head with a smile, and led the way.

The women around also gradually dispersed. Although it was a pity, seeing that Shen Yi already had a girlfriend, they could only give up.

Soon, several people walked into an antique shop called "Jubaozhai".

The layout of the store is not small, and there are antique shelves all around, on which are placed a variety of antiques, from calligraphy, painting and jade to porcelain miscellaneous pieces.

There were a lot of things, but no customers were seen, only a young man was carefully wiping the antique ornaments with a cloth.

But this is also very normal. For the antique industry, it is very common to not open for three years, but to open for three years.

The antique street outside may be very lively, but they are all people who want to pan for gold. After all, the things on the stalls are very cheap. In comparison, the items in this kind of antique shop are much more expensive. People who come in are not just here to take a look. Yes, those who are very confident in their own eyesight.

"A lot of things!" Murong Xue exclaimed in surprise, it was her first time visiting an antique shop, and although they were all old items, she felt that everything was new and interesting.

"Master Mao? Why are you here?" Hearing the voice, the young man immediately looked towards the door. When he saw Mao Chuan, he immediately put down a bronze utensil in his hand and greeted him with a smile on his face.

"A Rui, where is your boss, help me ask him to come out." Mao Chuan said to the young man with a smile.

"Okay, you and these friends sit down for a while, and I'll call the boss right away."

The young man smiled and invited several people to sit down. After serving tea, he hurried to the back room.

While waiting, Shen Yi also looked curiously at some items in the store.

"Little friend, do you know anything about antiques?" Mao Chuan asked with a smile after taking a sip of tea.

Shen Yi shook his head with a smile, he knew nothing about this business, just like Murong Xue, it was his first time visiting a place like Antique Street.

"If you don't know this business, it's better to be careful, otherwise you will have to pay the tuition fee, just like the things in this store, if one out of ten items is old, it's good." Mao Chuan whispered, with an old face. A little smile appeared, he was still very proud of his achievements in this line of work.

"There are so many fakes, isn't that a lie?" Murong Xue's almond eyes widened, and she looked at Mao Chuan in shock.

"That's the way it is in the antique business. There are both true and false. You rely on a pair of discerning eyes. You're lucky if you find treasures. It's also a common thing to pay tuition fees through eyes. It’s a scam, and the shopkeeper also runs the risk of being cheated by accepting these antiques.” Mao Chuan explained with a smile.

Murong Xue nodded suddenly when she heard the words.

"Speaking of which, you are his girlfriend?" Mao Chuan asked tentatively.

Murong Xue's face was flushed immediately, she glanced at Shen Yi, then lowered her head, neither denying nor admitting, waiting for Shen Yi's answer with rapid heartbeat.

However, Shen Yi didn't hear this at all, because at this moment, he was completely in shock.

He discovered that the newly unlocked ability of his talent, the Eye of Truth, could actually see through the inside of these antiques, and he could sense that a few of these antiques contained a little bit of aura.

He guessed that these objects with aura should be real old objects, because the accumulation of time absorbed the weak aura between heaven and earth.

And the more aura contained in these objects, the older they should be.

"Doesn't that mean that I can pick up leaks at will?"

Shen Yi was so horrified by this astonishing discovery that he was completely immersed in it for a moment.

Murong Xue waited for a long time, but she couldn't wait for Shen Yi's response, she glanced at him, saw his absent-minded look, thought he was pretending to be stupid, and suddenly pinched his waist fiercely with some annoyance.

"what!"

The stabbing pain in his waist brought Shen Yi back to his senses, he touched the pinched soft flesh, and looked at Murong Xue with an innocent face: "What are you doing?"

"Hmph!" Murong Xue snorted coldly, turned her head away angrily.

Seeing this scene, Mao Chuan seemed to understand something, sipped his tea with a smile on his face, and said nothing more.

Sitting next to him, Jiang Baishi looked at Shen Yi with strange eyes. Last time he went to Yinghua to fight with Shen Yi, he had seen Shen Yi's girlfriend, she was an amazing woman.

But now there is another woman beside Shen Yi, she is also beautiful, does this guy have two legs?
Jiang Baishi is old, and he also knows that beautiful men are always surrounded by beautiful women, but he still can't believe it. He has seen Shen Yi's painting for that woman, and he can feel how deep the love between the two is. Therefore, I don't quite believe that this young man will betray that woman.

"This is... what's wrong?" Shen Yi looked at the angry Murong Xue, and scratched his cheek for some unknown reason.

"Master Mao!"

At this time, a voice came, and several people followed the prestige, only to see a middle-aged man who was about 40 years old, with a fat figure, walked over with a smile.

Behind him was the young man before him.

"Treasurer Wang." Mao Chuan stood up and greeted him with a smile. Jiang Baishi and Shen Yi immediately followed.

"Master Mao, why are you free to visit my small shop today?" Shopkeeper Wang said with a flattering smile on his face.

Mao Chuan is a well-known treasure appreciator in Mingzhu, and if they open an antique shop, there must be a place to ask Mao Chuan, so naturally they must try their best to make friends.

"Why, I'm not welcome?" Mao Chuan pretended to be serious.

"That's impossible, I wish you would come every day!" Shopkeeper Wang said hastily.

Then, both of them laughed.

"Who are these?" After exchanging pleasantries, Shopkeeper Wang's eyes fell on Shen Yi and the three of them.

"Oh, let me introduce you. This is my old friend, a famous master of traditional Chinese painting. You should have heard of it." Mao Chuan first introduced Jiang Baishi.

"You are Master Jiang?" Shopkeeper Wang recognized Jiang Baishi, his eyes widened in surprise, and he quickly stretched out his right hand: "Master Jiang, I have known you for a long time, and I have never had a chance to see you."

"Don't call me a master, I have already quit the art association." Jiang Baishi looked at Shen Yi in embarrassment, and shook hands with him.
