Notes on Tomb Raiders: God will punish evil

Lao Ding shook his head and said, "Twenty thousand."

This price was indeed beyond my expectation, and I was thinking in my heart: "Could it be that Lao Ding missed it in the auction market?"

At this time, Lao Ding said to me again: "Oh, by the way, Xiaolin, I have something to tell you. I sold the Wenhuading tripod you gave me last time at an auction, and it sold for 560 million. You See if this money is going to be called to you?"

That Wenhua tripod was originally a loss-making business, and I bought it at a huge price just to find out the truth about the tripod.Now that Ding is of no use to me, naturally I won't have any objection if Lao Ding sells it.

I shook my head and said, "Uncle Ding, I told you that this tripod is for you to dispose of. As for the proceeds from the auction, I will not accept any money."

Having been with each other for so many years, Lao Ding naturally knows my character, so I nodded and said, "Xiao Lin, do you think I bought this bronze statue worth [-] yuan?"

If it is genuine, let alone 20, even [-] is worth it.However, according to my experience, there are so many fakes of bronze statues like this on the market, and nine out of ten are fakes.

I think this is probably the fundamental reason why Lao Ding was able to lower the price to such an extent!

I carefully observed the bronze statue to judge its authenticity.

The whole bronze statue is really vividly depicted, and it is very in line with the carving techniques of ancient craftsmen. I can't find any trace of forgery.

If it is impossible to judge whether it is genuine from the carving technique and patina, then there is only one way.

That is to judge the authenticity of this bronze statue from the image of the characters.

This is also what I am curious about this bronze statue.

From the outside, this bronze statue depicts a young man, about 25 or [-] years old.Especially his eyes, they are very vividly depicted, very energetic, as if they are alive.

If this bronze statue is really an antiquity, then the person who carved this bronze portrait must be a master craftsman.

So, I tried to find some inscriptions around the bronze statue, because the technique and content of the inscriptions are of great help to the dating of the statue.

But the result made me very disappointed, because the whole bronze statue didn't have any words to prove the identity of this man.

I finally know why Lao Ding bought this bronze statue cheaply. The reason is very simple. People don't believe that this bronze statue is the real one from the Warring States Period.

Because Lao Ding is a frequent visitor to the auction, he is very familiar with the people from the auction company, and sometimes, the people from the auction company will ask Lao Ding to help them identify cultural relics.

I guess, Lao Ding must have seen this cultural relic before the auction started.

The facts are generally not bad as I expected.Lao Ding went on to say: "When I saw this bronze statue for the first time, I liked it very much, so I observed it carefully before it was auctioned, and found that it was very in line with the carving characteristics of the Warring States Period, so I decided to bet this time, Anyway, 2 yuan is not much, so buying fakes can be regarded as a lesson in buying.”

I put down the bronze statue in my hand, and said to Lao Ding: "Uncle Ding, I can't see any counterfeit features, but we can't say that it is the real thing."

Hearing what I said, Lao Ding laughed, and said, "Xiao Lin, I understand this truth, so I am very curious and want to know his origin. Unfortunately, the auction company keeps the identity of the auctioneer secret."

While chatting, suddenly, the door of Lao Ding's studio was opened, and I saw Ding Yin standing in the yard, ten meters away from the door.

What, the door can be opened at a distance of ten meters. Could it be that Ding Yin possesses spiritual power?

Seeing Ding Yin appearing, Lao Ding said to me: "Xiao Lin, the book you gave me last time is really weird. Ever since Yin girl became obsessed with that book, she seems to have supernatural powers. If you think about it, you can do what you want to do.”

Ding Yin's situation is obviously the characteristic of a spiritual teacher.At this time, I already understood that the book of spiritual warfare that I bought from Fang Zihai was indeed genuine.

"It's already twelve o'clock, do you two still want to eat?" Ding Yin asked Lao Ding and me with a dark face as soon as we met.

Lao Ding slapped his forehead and said: "Look at my memory, I forgot to eat while chatting, come on, Xiao Lin, you can eat with us too, Yam Yam knows that you are coming to eat, so I specially made it for you Your favorite pickled fish."

I grew up in Lao Ding's family. At that time, because of poverty, I was very happy to be able to eat a meal of pickled fish. Moreover, my favorite food when I was young was pickled fish.

Hearing what Lao Ding said, I couldn't help but think of my childhood.Indeed, since I moved away from Lao Ding's house, I haven't tasted Ding Yin's pickled fish for a long time.

I nodded and said to Lao Ding, "Okay, Uncle Ding, I'll stay here for dinner!"

Chapter 2 The seventh child was robbed

After dinner, I asked Lao Ding for my handwritten copy of "Psychological Warfare".

Because he loves this "Spiritual Force Warfare" very much, Ding Yin even copied a few copies of the content, the purpose is also very clear, which is to practice spiritual power.

In fact, I knew very well in my heart that the third child used his spiritual power to fight with me, to share life and death together, and to develop feelings for each other, which forcefully snatched me away from Ding Yin's hands.

Therefore, Ding Yin certainly refused to let go of such a secret book on cultivating spiritual power, and practiced very hard.

In just half a month, she had cultivated her mental power, and with her mental power, she was able to open the door of Lao Ding's studio.

The spiritual power of the third child is completely different from that of Ding Yin.The third child can only use mental power to sense things and judge danger, but he can't use mental power to attack others, and he can't even open and close doors.

In fact, the reason is very simple, because the third child has never learned the method of mental warfare.

Although Ding Yin and I are rich and powerful now, in fact, Ding Yin and I were born in poor families.Moreover, growing up together, I also know Ding Yin's personality very well. She is very strong and will never admit defeat.

Otherwise, after graduating from university, she had climbed to the position of vice president of a listed company in only four years.

Later, Lao Ding earned more and more money, and it was no longer necessary for her to work in that company.Also, I feel like a big part of her resignation was because of me.

Of course, these are things of the past.The third child has paid so much for me, I am afraid I will pay it with my life in this life, and I will not be able to pay it back.

My only thought right now is to revive the third child.

Grandma Shao once said that in order to fully awaken the remnant soul of Fairy Silver Sword, she must use the most powerful power of human beings, and that is love.

Therefore, at such a critical moment, I can't fall in love with Ding Yin half-heartedly.

The soul-locking bead that hides the remnant soul of Fairy Silver Sword is always hanging on my chest. I regard it as the best treasure. As long as I have it, I can feel at ease, as if the third child is still in my chest. around.

After leaving Ding Yin's house, I drove the luxury car back home immediately.On the way, Lao Qi suddenly called me.

Seeing the call from this kid, I thought to myself: "This kid called me just after returning from the trip to Qingniu Mountain. Maybe something happened again."

Lao Qi’s voice quickly came over the phone, and he asked me, “Boss, where are you now?”

I said, "I'm on my way home, Lao Qi, what can you do with me?"

Lao Qi said on the phone: "Boss, something big has happened. If you are free now, come to Dongjiang Hotel immediately. I got into trouble here."

Guess what, it hasn't been a few days since I came back from Qingniu Mountain, and this old seven is not resting anymore.

It's just that I'm very strange, Lao Qi can be regarded as the No. [-] person in Dongjiang, and anyone who is black or white will sell his face. I can't guess what kind of trouble he can get into in Dongjiang Hotel.

But now that he has said this, of course I will not stop going, you must know that the two of us share weal and woe.

Ten minutes later, my luxury car parked in the underground garage of Dongjiang Hotel, and I called Lao Qi.

He told me that he was in a box in the restaurant on the second floor.

It is now close to one o'clock in the afternoon, and the guests in the restaurant are starting to leave one after another, while the waiters are busy clearing the tables.

After I asked the waiter about the location of the box, I immediately rushed to the box that Lao Qi pointed out.
