Jianbao life

Chapter 169 Cixi Night Pearl

Seeing the astonishment in the shopkeeper's eyes, Li Heng knew that the shopkeeper must have more good things in his possession, and this person was nothing more than testing the eyes of new customers like them.

"22 this year." Li Heng said.

"It's amazing, you have such a sharp eye at such a young age. Okay, you have passed the test," the shopkeeper didn't say a few words of nonsense, and his attitude was much more enthusiastic than before, "Please come in with me , to tell you the truth, there are only ten thousand things outside, and if you want to see something good, you have to go in and see it."

The shopkeeper woke up the napping buddy: "Don't sleep, keep an eye on it."

The guy nodded and stood at the door watching, while the shopkeeper respectfully raised the curtain leading to the inner hall and said, "Please come in."

There is actually something hidden inside this small shop. There are some good things inside, but they are all sealed up. Even if you want to see it, you have to ask the boss if he agrees.

Li Heng was surprised by the row of noodles inside, which was completely opposite to the small and poor looking outside.

The shopkeeper here is really not the kind who is hired by the real boss to look at the store, he is the boss himself.

It was because of this young man that I first noticed these people, and when I looked around, my eyes didn't stay for long each time, as if he was really a master at appraising treasures.

But no matter how you look at this young man, he is very young, and his treasure appraising ability may not be supernatural, and he may even be a treasure appraiser who has just glimpsed the way, so this is why he has just tried it out.

He was watching Li Heng's actions, and saw that Li Heng stopped when he walked to a certain place.

Li Heng looked at the wooden box in front of him. It used a technique similar to openwork carving. In a small palace, the flowers, trees, pavilions, terraces and waterside pavilions are all vivid. Although the sparrow is small, it has all internal organs.It is very delicate and exquisite.

Li Heng began to examine it carefully, his eyes staring at the radiant and constantly changing light golden light above it.

There is really something in it.

However, other people's attention to this jade box is far less than the treasure inside.

Liu Guangming looked at the slightly fluorescent pearl on it and said, "Could this be a night pearl?"

This bead has been emitting a soft luster, although it is soft but very bright, it really looks like a small light bulb, very beautiful.

Even a straight man like Li Heng thinks he is very beautiful.

"Let me tell you, this luminous pearl is really the same as the one in the TV series that can avoid snakes and insects within a hundred steps. It has a fragrance, and it is as bright as day at night?" Liu Guangming turned his head and asked Li Heng quietly.

Li Heng couldn't help laughing: "It's not that miraculous, you wait for summer to come, you go out for a walk, and the mosquitoes won't bite you to death!"

"Ah?" Liu Guangming was taken aback for a while, "Then why is the novel also..."

"Go back and read more books, don't watch TV." Li Heng touched Liu Guangming's shoulder, and gave him a loving look as if he was mentally retarded, "This kind of popular point can be called fluorescent stone. Luminous stone."

"It sounds like it's nothing special..." Liu Guangming scratched his head, "I thought it was the same as the ones in TV dramas."

Zhang Qiushui on the side smiled and said: "You are wrong, diamonds and emeralds are of the same origin. If you look down on fluorescent stones, you think diamonds are nothing?"

"But this name doesn't sound very compelling, and I haven't seen it before..." Liu Guangming curled his lips.

Li Heng burst out laughing.

All rare treasures in the world that can be admired by the ancients have been rare since ancient times, and they will definitely not be easier to come by than ordinary jade.Under nature's ingenious craftsmanship, there will always be treasures beyond what people have seen and heard.

"This kind of thing is always good. You can't ask for it. You should read more!" Li Heng said with a smile, he didn't pay attention to the things in front of him, and continued to look at other treasures.

"Do you still know Ye Mingzhu?" The shopkeeper said in surprise after listening for a while.

Liu Guangming said with some embarrassment: "No, I just know a little bit, not really knowing."

The shopkeeper walked up to the luminous pearl and said: "The luminous pearl has always been seen in royal tombs. This is a lighting device in addition to the ever-lasting lamp. Although there are not many examples of luminous pearls replacing ever-lasting lamps in the surviving allusions, this kind of beads, There is another allusion, which I think you will be more familiar with."

"Any more allusions?" Liu Guangming just wanted to continue talking, but he was poked by Li Heng and shut up.

Li Heng turned back and stood still, waiting for the shopkeeper to continue to solve the mystery.

The shopkeeper will never tell them this passage for no reason. After saying this passage, what does it mean in the end.

"I don't know if you guys know about Cixi?" the shopkeeper asked with narrowed eyes and a smile.

Liu Guangming nodded: "I know, Cixi in the late Qing Dynasty! What does this have to do with Cixi?"

"Haha, that's the problem." The shopkeeper said with a smile, "The construction of Cixi's mausoleum was luxurious, surpassing the tombs of all emperors and queens in the Qing Dynasty, and even the buried objects were extremely precious. At that time, some people said that if Cixi took out These are used to repay foreign debts, and the national treasury is rich, so why worry about the people's deprivation."

"At that time, one of Cixi's burial objects was a rare luminous pearl, which was divided into two dim pieces, and combined into a round bead. Hair can be seen within a hundred steps at night, which can keep the corpse from melting. It is a priceless treasure! Unfortunately, the imperial mausoleum was stolen and all the treasures were looted, and when it was discovered again, it was already an empty tomb. It is said that it was later transferred to Song Meiling as a shoe ornament, and it has since disappeared.”

After listening for a long time the shopkeeper didn't get to the point, Li Heng asked aside: "The shopkeeper means that this Ye Mingzhu has a lot of background?"

"Of course, young man, I'm not afraid to tell you that this luminous pearl is Cixi's burial item!" said the shopkeeper, "I won't show this kind of thing to anyone except old friends and customers."

"Such a good baby, why are you so willing to put it here?" Li Heng asked.The purpose of this shopkeeper is not simple.

The shopkeeper's eyes rolled, and he thought that this young man has a lot of eyes, and it seems that he can't hide it from him.

So he didn't feel shy, and said, "No, come and see, how much is this Ye Mingzhu worth? It doesn't matter if you get it wrong, young people, you are just getting a glimpse of the way, there will always be mistakes, it doesn't matter."

"Shopkeeper, don't look down on me. I haven't been in the industry for a while, but I still know a little bit about it." Li Heng suddenly emphasized his ability.

The shopkeeper smiled: "Please."
