When Han Rui heard Chu Chen's words, he was taken aback for a moment, then closed the book in embarrassment, and said in a low voice, "Look through it casually, I don't understand what's in it."

Chu Chen smiled, and turned his head to see Yan Hua standing at the window looking out, her beautiful back showing a trace of loneliness.

"This is normal, and I can't understand it." Chu Chen touched the title of the book on the cover and said, "In fact, there are very few people who can understand Qimen Dunjia, and most of them only understand a little bit, or don't understand it at all." It is almost impossible to see people who pretend to understand and understand its connotation. It is extremely necessary to be talented to learn this kind of spells. Moreover, many advanced spells in ancient China have been lost, and only a handful of them survive. It's not complete, so it's best not to stare at these things."

"Yeah." Han Rui nodded, hesitated for a moment, then stretched out his hand and said to Chu Chen, "Without that fire, would I not be able to see her?"

Knowing that "she" refers to Shu Linghua, Chu Chen was a little surprised, and said, "It's normal to not see her. Why, do you still want to see her?"

After finishing speaking, seeing Han Rui nodding his head without hesitation, Chu Chen's alarm bells rang in his heart.

That Yanhua is indeed as beautiful as a fairy, and exudes a gentle aura all over her body, which is very attractive. Seeing Han Rui like this, could it be that he likes this book spirit?

It's really not as good as man's calculation, Chu Chen gritted his teeth and thought to himself, he was careful everywhere, but still let Han Rui follow the way of a woman, even though this woman is not a living person...

Chu Chen's eyes dimmed, and he responded viciously, "That fire is very precious, you can't use it casually, don't even think about seeing her again."

...Unless you are willing to take off your clothes now and let me hug you, Chu Chen added in his heart darkly.

As if seeing what Chu Chen was thinking, Han Rui shook his head and explained: "It's not what you think, I can tell that she is not human, I just think she seems to have something on her mind, maybe she wants help from others...you Before I got up, I saw her standing by the window, and then suddenly I couldn't see her."

"Do you want help from others?" Chu Chen glanced at the figure by the window suspiciously, then turned his eyes back, stared into Han Rui's eyes and said, "Why didn't I see that Shuling is a fairy, and it is impossible to ask for help .”

Knowing that Chu Chen had decided that he had fantasies about Shu Linghua, it was useless to say anything now, Han Rui shook his right hand, lowered his head, and said nothing more.

Chu Chen didn't want to bully people too hard, so he immediately restrained himself a lot when he saw this. He thought for a while, then changed the subject and said, "I think you've almost quit your drug addiction. Do you want to go out for a walk? Just want to return the jade ring finger To Lao Zhao, you can go with me."

Han Rui didn't want to be bored at home every day, so he nodded in response.

The two tidied up casually, dressed neatly, and strolled all the way to the Antique Street.

Coming here again, Han Rui found that there was still an endless stream of people in front of him.

The antique street in City B is famous, and every day, different people come here to shop for goods or pick up leaks. Chu Chen has long been used to this.

The two walked side by side among the lively stalls, always paying attention to their feet, trying not to get close to those stalls, so as not to accidentally step on other people's things.

Chu Chen casually scanned the surrounding stalls, and occasionally saw a few strands of black mist entangled in them, but his mind was not on this, so he didn't pay any attention to it, but took Han Rui straight to the antique shop in the back street " Weary months".

At this time, it was the early autumn season, the weather had turned cold, and everyone had already changed into autumn clothes, but sometimes it was really unbearable to be hot and cold.

But no matter what the outside temperature is, as soon as you enter Laiyue, you will immediately feel a refreshing air. Chu Chen has asked Zhao Laixin many times, wanting to know how he designed Laiyue to be warm in winter and cool in summer, comfortable and pleasant However, Zhao Laixin was determined and refused to speak. He only said that the mountain man had his own tricks and dismissed Chu Chen hastily.

So until now, Chu Chen has not figured out Zhao Laixin's old background. He can only roughly guess where Lao Zhao picked up a rare treasure and hid it in a hidden place in the store, which turned this small antique shop into a treasure. Fairyland.

There were no customers in the small shop at this time, only Lao Zhao and Lao Qi were sitting in front of the table and chatting.

Lao Zhao was holding a fasting sign in his hand, and was talking to Lao Qi with a smile on his face. When he noticed someone entering the store, he raised his head and took a look.

"Hey, Xiao Chu is here, sit down quickly." Seeing that it was Chu Chen and the young man who helped him with the inventory last time, Lao Zhao immediately stood up and said with a smile: "What's the matter, come visit me today when you have time shopping?"

Chu Chen nodded with a smile, and sat next to Han Rui, his eyes fell on the fasting sign involuntarily, and he joked: "No wonder Lao Zhao looked happy today, so he ate the elixir?"

People in the industry will habitually call it "eating elixir" when they buy cheap and favorite collections. Lao Zhao naturally understands this meaning. Thinking that Chu Chen may also like this wooden sign, he put the fasting sign on the table steadily. On the table, he raised his hand as a gesture of invitation, and then asked, "I heard that that "thing" was taken away by the sixth sea wolf?"

Chu Chen held up the wooden sign and looked at it carefully, and replied casually: "Yes, I watched him go with my own eyes. The old man has been busy for most of his life, so it is worth it. From ancient times to the present, he can put that thing away. There are several people who claim it as their own, and he is one of them, a typical emperor's fate, destined to be the king of the world for a lifetime."

Hearing that Chu Chen and Lao Zhao were discussing the matter of King Yu Ding, Han Rui chose to remain silent, but Lao Qi couldn't sit still, and hurriedly pricked up his ears and gossiped: "Old Cui is indeed a character. No one on the road can give him face, but brother Chu, I have never heard that you can also look at your face. What's the matter, can you show your brother a second look? Look at what I did in my previous life, can I be confused? A position of emperor and general?"

Hearing this, the movements in Chu Chen's hands paused, and he smiled and said, "Your face is simple, with tricky brows and mouse eyes. In your previous life, you either raped or stole..."

"Hey." Lao Qi scratched his head in embarrassment, sucked his teeth and said, "That's what you said, isn't it scolding me... the flower picker is almost the same."

"I'm kidding you." Chu Chen smiled, put down the fasting card in his hand and said, "I don't know how to look at faces. I just said that. If you see that Lao Zhao doesn't answer my words, he will know that I am talking nonsense."

After finishing speaking, Chu Chen turned to Zhao Laixin, and said, "The Gananxiang fasting card made by the Qing Dynasty is indeed from the past."

"How is the appearance?" Zhao Laixin asked.

"Excellent." Chu Chen replied: "Canaan incense is the best of agarwood, and the output is very small. This fasting card has a warm and delicate paste on the surface, and Manchu characters are engraved on the back. It looks like it was made by the Qing court. It is indeed a good collection... However, it seems that there is still something missing."

Upon hearing this, Old Zhao hurriedly asked, "What's missing? Say it quickly, what's the point now."

Chu Chen pondered for a moment, pointed to the fasting card and said: "I remember you collected a few Warring States crystals before, you might as well hang them at the head and tail of this fasting card, the value of this thing will double again if you combine the two .”

"If you don't tell me, I've forgotten." Old Zhao patted his forehead and said happily, "Fortunately, I let you take a look, otherwise it would be a big loss. I am worried that I have nothing to match those few beads."

After speaking, Zhao Laixin stood up and walked into the inner hall, and after a while came out with a square box the size of a palm.

The square box is made of rosewood, exquisitely carved, and the copper lock on the box is also made by famous masters.

Open the lid to reveal a few crystal beads inside.

To identify Warring States crystal beads, you must first look at the phosgene on the surface. The real Warring States crystals will have a clear feeling of rock sugar, while imitations generally cannot produce this unique feeling.

Secondly, it depends on the polishing process of the beads. The polishing of the Warring States crystal beads is to first polish the raw materials into a rough shape, and then round them a little bit, and generally leave some prismatic traces.Some of these marks are more obvious, and some are not so obvious.

In addition to these, the traces of use at the hole end are also one of the important identification methods.In order to imitate the crystal beads of the Warring States period, many people will deliberately hit the hole end with a sharp instrument, but in fact, compared with the real one, there is still a big gap.

Most of the small Warring States crystal beads can be punched in one go. Sometimes the hole is more centered, and it is directly punched from one end to the other to form a horn hole.

As for the Warring States crystal beads in Zhao Laixin's hands, because of their large size, it is inevitable that there will be intermittent drilling when drilling, so the line from the end of the hole to the center of the beads is not a straight line.

Since there are many counterfeiters on the market in recent years, you must be cautious when there is a [-]% doubt, especially when identifying such easy-to-fake things.

In addition to relying on these methods, the most important thing is to rely on his own feelings. In the face of those fakes that are more real than the real ones, Chu Chen has his own ghost eyes as a guarantee, so he is more confident and more confident than Lao Zhao, Lao Qi and others. reliable.

It is precisely because of this that Zhao Laixin and Lao Qi often ask Chu Chen for help.

Chu Chen usually helps them take a look when he is free, but there is another reason why he is so thoughtful today.

He wanted to find a way out for the matter of the jade finger, and it was unreasonable that he agreed to it and then backed out halfway.

But now that Zhao Laixin has benefited from him, presumably even if he cares about finger-wrenching, he will sell him for the sake of the fasting card.

So Chu Chen carefully selected two crystal beads with the best appearance from the red sandalwood box, and said to Zhao Laixin, "Old Zhao, I actually have something to tell you today."

Zhao Laixin was thinking about what kind of rope he should find to thread the Warring States crystal beads, so he asked casually, "What's the matter?"

"It's the emerald ring that you asked my cousin to help you with..." Chu Chen said with a gentle smile, "He's been in a bit of trouble recently, I'm afraid I can't help you anymore, lest it breaks."
