The years when I was reborn as a giant in the antique world

After Yun Zhou woke up, he rubbed his fingers lightly, the residual temperature on them had disappeared, everything was like a dream, but he knew it was not a dream.

The emperor did come to his dream, and he was very concerned about his injury.

Thinking of seeing each other often with the jade pendant in the future, Yunzhou felt a little more urgent, and couldn't wait for the arrival of the weekend.

When the time comes, he will find the Panlong Jade Pendant from home, hang it around his neck, and stay with him day and night.

The corners of the boy's lips slightly raised. After washing up, he was about to bandage his fingers again, but he found an ointment on his desk.

"I bought it for you.—Xu Ze."

Yun Zhou glanced at the lower bunk, there was no one, so he should go to morning exercise again, it was so early every time.

A good figure with six-pack abs and mermaid line really doesn't come for nothing.

The young man put away the ointment, thinking that he had also applied medicine to Young Master Xu's back, he couldn't help shaking his head and laughing. Is this a different kind of "reciprocity"?

The two of them looked like brothers and sisters in distress, either one was injured or the other was injured, and both needed to be smeared.

Hong Hai and Xue Yifan were still sleeping. Yun Zhou went to the cafeteria to have breakfast after washing up. When he came back, he brought them Xiaolongbao, Shaomai, and porridge.

After so many days of getting along and observing, he has a little understanding of the tastes of the three people in the dormitory: Hong Hai likes to eat sweet food, and he likes all kinds of meat; —

Yun Zhou was stunned for a moment, he seemed to order the same as his every time?However, City S is not far from Shanghai, so it's normal to have similar tastes.

When he returned to the dormitory, he heard the sound of water splashing in the bathroom. It should be that Xu Ze had returned.

Within a few minutes, First Young Master Xu came out in black pajamas, with damp moisture on his body, a height of 185, wide shoulders, narrow waist, long legs, and a perfect clothes rack.

He wiped his half-dry hair with a towel, and shook it impatiently after finishing, his handsome face was a little more chic and casual.

Seeing Yun Zhou, Xu Ze's hand wiping his hair froze suddenly, his face was a little hot, and he didn't dare to look directly at him, so he coughed and said, "...you're back."

After opening his mouth, he realized that his voice was a little hoarse, and immediately poured a glass of water.It wasn't until the cold liquid slipped into his throat that Xu Ze felt the heat from his body dissipate.

"Sorry, I didn't know you were coming back, so I didn't bring breakfast." Yun Zhou's tone was slightly apologetic.

"You don't need to apologize, and don't spoil them in the future." He looked at Hong Hai who was still sleeping soundly, frowned, and smashed the bedpost with his hand, "Get up quickly. If you don't get up again, Master Guo is going to call the roll."

"What, Lao Guo is calling the roll call!"

Hong Hai was startled by the crisp metal impact, and sat up abruptly. He was still in an unconscious state, and began to put on his clothes with his eyes closed. Why don't you call me'.

Master Guo is a professor of jewelry and jade, and he is usually the strictest. Hong Hai was caught skipping class once and wrote a [-]-word self-criticism, otherwise his credits would be deducted.

"Hahaha--"

Yun Zhou smiled heartily, his eyebrows and eyes curved into beautiful arcs, Xu Ze glanced at him, and his cold face also brought a little smile.

Xue Yifan shook his head slightly as he looked at Hong Hai's stupid look of not being able to put on his clothes for a long time.

Hong Hai realized later that he was not angry when he was being tricked. No wonder he felt that his collar was a bit tight. It turned out that the clothes were worn backwards.

He also laughed, and the dormitory was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

There are not many courses for the major of antique appreciation. Except for the necessary public courses, other professional courses are basically small courses, such as calligraphy and painting, jewelry and jade, classical furniture, stationery, ancient coins, ceramics, bronzes, etc. courses in all aspects.

Due to the small number of students, the school has set up corresponding elective courses, and senior seniors who sign up for elective courses will study with them.

When the elective courses were just opened, the only dozens of places were robbed. With the school grass Xu Ze and that clean and handsome elementary school boy present, they must grab the only seats!

Everyone knew that Xu Ze and Yun Zhou had a good relationship, and they were almost inseparable.

Being able to appreciate two handsome guys with different temperaments while listening to the class is really worth it!

As a result, it took less than 10 minutes for the quota of elective courses to be released, and all the registrations were over. Those who didn't get it sighed, and thought of other ways to take the class.

The main courses in the freshman year of antique appreciation are: ancient coins, ceramics and jewelry and jade. For Yunzhou who has a weak foundation, the learning process is just right, so he listens very carefully.

The boy always sits in the first row in class, and Xu Ze usually sits with him.

Due to Young Master Xu's indifference and the mutual reluctance between "rivals in love", everyone has reached a consensus, that is, "you can only watch from a distance and not play with it", and no one should provoke each other unless you want to suffer from Young Master Xu. cold eyes and death stares of all 'rivals'.

So Yun Zhou and Xu Ze were excluded in the first class of each class, and there was only one top student who was separated by many seats.

Xueba is male, wears thick glasses, never looks around in class, and will not affect anyone.

But Hong Hai couldn't stand the teacher staring at him all day to answer questions, so he pulled Xue Yifan to sit in the back row.

But today, before class, Xu Ze hesitated for a moment, and with his long legs, he followed Hong Hai and the others to sit in the back row.

Seeing the tall and handsome school girl walking near their seats, the girl next to her blushed with excitement, and was distracted throughout the class, wondering if she had listened.

Yun Zhou sat alone in the middle of the seat and listened carefully.

Although he was indeed puzzled for a while when he saw Xu Ze going to the back row with Hong Hai, but in a blink of an eye, he thought that this was someone else's freedom, and maybe Young Master Xu was not used to sitting in the front, so he was relieved.

When the class bell rang, the boy immediately calmed down and opened his notebook to record while listening to the lecture.

"In this section we are going to talk about a type of jade, which is called the 'king of jade'.

In ancient times, 'Emerald' was originally the name of a bird whose coat color was extremely beautiful, usually in blue, green, reddish brown and other colors. Among them, the male bird was red and was called 'Fei', and the female was green, which was called 'Fei'. "emerald".

Chen Ziang, a famous poet in the Tang Dynasty, once wrote in his poem "Ganyu", "The emerald nests in the South China Sea, the male and female pearl forests...beautiful jewelry, luxuriant and rotten brocade quilts."

It means: This kind of bird named Emerald builds its nest on the coast of the South China Sea, and the male and female live in pairs in the jungle. The beautiful feathers can be made into dazzling jewelry, and the bedding decorated with it is also colorful. ①

In the Qing Dynasty, the feathers of the emerald bird and a large amount of Burmese jade entered the imperial palace, and were deeply loved by concubines. Because the two have similar colors, the word "Jade" gradually spread, and the name of the bird became the name of the jade... ..."

Yun Zhou sat in the first row and listened very carefully. His previous understanding of jade was only superficial.

When the family was relatively well-off, Father Yun once gave his mother a pair of green jadeite bracelets made of ice seeds on their wedding anniversary. The price at that time was several hundred thousand. He also got a safety buckle made of ice seeds. , green and green, clear as ice, very beautiful.

But later, both the bracelet and the Ping An buckle were sold to pay off the debt. This little jewelry was exchanged for more than 200 million, and its value has increased by four or five times. There is a huge room for appreciation, and it is much more useful than a luxury car.

For Yun Zhou, the value of emerald is the same as that of antiques, and it is the most valuable jewelry.

Xu Ze's family is in the jadeite business, so he is familiar with this knowledge, and he can grasp it thoroughly without listening carefully.

He stretched his long legs wantonly under the table, propped his chin with one hand, and seemed to be listening seriously, but in fact, his mind had long been on the young man in front of him.

The young man's back is obviously a little thin but straight, and the arms exposed in the T-shirt are very white. He lowers his head to take notes from time to time, and the small part of his neck exposed when he lowers his head is also dazzlingly white. After that, she showed a little cuteness.

Xu Ze could imagine how he was listening to the class seriously at the moment, those clear eyes must be staring straight ahead without moving, with a serious look on his face, as if all the hustle and bustle had left him, only the teacher's voice and the notes in his pen were left .

Yunzhou has always had an attitude of perseverance, and nothing can shake his purpose and determination, which is very attractive.

After thinking about it, Xu Ze's thoughts gradually drifted away.

He thought about his... situation yesterday, heck, it should be an accident, yes, it was just an accident, how could he have such feelings for Yun Zhou, it's too strange.

It should be the illusion that they have such a good relationship and are inseparable all day long. In addition, I haven't settled down for a long time, so it is normal to have some impulses.

Xu Ze felt that he needed to calm down, as long as he and Yun Zhou regained the previous distance, just like Hong Hai and Xue Yifan, they are still good buddies.

Yun Zhou didn't know anything about Young Master Xu's entanglement and avoidance. At this moment, he was absorbing the knowledge about jade like a sponge absorbing water.

Professor Guo continued: "The correct definition of jadeite is a fiber pile aggregate composed of pyroxene minerals mainly composed of jadeite minerals. Naalum pyroxene is the main component of jadeite, also known as jadeite.

Jadeite is produced from raw ore mines, one is primary, that is, it is directly produced in mountain rocks, and is called "mountain material" by people. The quality is usually poor and contains more impurities.

The other is secondary, that is, the mountain material has been stripped off by weathering and erosion for a long time, and is washed by flowing water and transported to low-lying river valleys, etc., and is called 'water material'.This kind of jade material is better than that of mountain material, and the surface has a leather shell formed by weathering. ②

It is precisely because of the leather shell that people cannot sense the content and quality of the jadeite inside the rough stone from the outside. There is a saying in the industry that "a jade is hard to break".

Because of the high risk of buying rough jadeite, this practice is also known as 'gambling stones'. "

Yun Zhou knew that the term stone gambling did not sound very pleasant, but it was an activity that most emerald jewelers had to engage in.

Because there are only two ways to obtain jadeite, one is to buy the jadeite that someone else unlocked, and the other is to buy the rough stone to extract it yourself.The price of the former is high, and the risk of the latter is high. It depends on which one gets the higher profit.

The average jeweler will use both.

The price of rough stones is cheap, but it is difficult to get the jadeite you want, so you can only buy it at a high price.Judging from the current market conditions, rough jadeite is a non-renewable resource in a short period of time. With the development of the stock, it will become less and less. Many jewelers cannot buy high-green jadeite grown in glass even with money.

As for stone gambling, although it is said that it is difficult for gods to break an inch of jade, many veteran stone gamblers can increase the probability of "ten bets and nine loses" by studying the performance of rough stones, such as field mouth, leather shell, pine flower, python belt, etc.

Of course, it also includes the most important point, that is, luck, which also makes "gambling stones" a dream tool for some people, dreaming of getting rich overnight.

The morning time passed quickly under Professor Guo's explanation. Yunzhou packed up his notes and was going to go to the cafeteria for lunch with the other three people in the dormitory.

There is no class in the afternoon, so I can go to the laboratory to splice the remaining pieces of porcelain.

"Hey, young master, won't you go with us?"

"Well, I'm tired of eating in the cafeteria. I'll go out to eat." Xu Ze stood there with his hands in his pockets, his expression calm, as if he had regained his identity as the indifferent young master.

"Then let's go first." Yunzhou smiled at him, and seeing that the latter didn't say anything, he left with Hong Hai and the others.

Xu Ze suddenly felt restless, looking at the backs of the three talking and laughing, he wished to tear the other two away from Yunzhou.

He didn't look away until the boy's figure completely disappeared around the corner.

Xu Ze didn't go to eat right away, but lit a cigarette in the smoking area.

Dots of flames danced on the young man's slender fingertips, flickering on and off, the mist of tobacco filled his surroundings, and the smell of nicotine loomed in his nose, but Xu Ze didn't feel any relaxation.

Stuffing out the cigarette casually, First Young Master Xu walked out of the school with a cold face. Along the way, countless eyes were cast on him, admiring, jealous, envious, and curious.

His brows frowned even tighter. These people just saw that he was handsome, and they only liked his skin.

However, no one noticed when he was injured, except Yun Zhou.

**

Yun Zhou came to the school's laboratory with the broken porcelain on his back.

The first floor here is full of laboratories. There are large-scale laboratories for experimental classes and small project research rooms. They are usually not open, and you need to apply to enter.

He wrote the application a few days ago, submitted it on the campus network system, and now it has been approved. From now on, he can enter the laboratory every Tuesday and Friday, and others will use it at other times.

There was no one in the laboratory, Yunzhou opened the two curtains by the window, and closed the door of the laboratory again.

He found a seat in the back, took out the box in the backpack, picked out a few pieces of celadon corresponding to each other and placed them on the table covered with flannelette.

The last two tiles had been put together, so he took out the other two broken tiles and started to glue them together.

After trying to align the cracks of the tiles a few times, and remembering the angle, Yunzhou carefully applied the super glue to the center of the cracks, and while the adhesive was still wet, put the two tiles together. Put them together little by little until they are stitched together tightly, and then press hard with your fingers to ensure that they can stick together.

This step must be careful to ensure that every gap is neatly aligned, as long as there is a slight error in the arc, the whole piece of porcelain cannot be assembled.

Moreover, when bonding, it is necessary to ensure that the two pieces of porcelain are firmly adhered and cannot be dropped, because after bonding, a foundation must be laid to cover the cracks and coloring, and rework cannot be done in the middle. In the future, this piece of porcelain will be kept for decades or even hundreds of years. Cracking in the middle is another waste of all previous efforts.

When bonding with force, Yunzhou's wounded fingers were inevitably pressed, and the unhealed wound opened again, leaving a smear of blood on the gauze.

The young man didn't notice the wound on his fingertips, so he tied up the bonded broken pieces of porcelain with a white cloth tape to ensure that the super glue could fully function, and then gently wiped the excess transparent glue marks on the porcelain surface with a soft cloth dipped in acetone .

After cleaning, the entire piece of porcelain became extremely smooth, with a shiny glaze, and there was no excess dirt except for a thin crack.

The splicing this time was much better than the last time when it was glued many times, and there was almost no need for rework. Yunzhou put the celadon tied with a white cloth tape on a soft cushion and started the second experiment.

The boy who has found a little touch will almost put it together in one go in the next period of time. As long as he has enough patience, this step is not too difficult.

It's a pity that most people can't keep repeating this boring and energy-consuming work.

This also makes the modern craftsman spirit particularly valuable.

The sun was slanting to the west, and under the bright lights, the room in the laboratory was quiet, only the sound of the boy's slight breathing.

Now he is trying to splice the three tiles together, which is another step, to put them together correctly.

Spelling refers to trial assembly according to the shape, decoration, and color of porcelain, marking with a pen, and planning the order of bonding.

Just like a Rubik's Cube, it has six sides and six colors. It needs to be planned which side to start turning first. If the initial steps are wrong, it may be necessary to restore and start over. The same is true for the matching of porcelain.

For example, for large vase-shaped porcelain such as plum vases, if you start splicing from the top neck, follow the order from top to bottom. After the top half is spliced, the bottom part may be difficult to stick. Failure to do so will deform the whole piece of porcelain, which must be dismantled and reassembled, so the order of splicing is very important.

Generally, if there are many pieces, they can be glued from the bottom. It must be ensured that there is no slight mistake in each piece. If one piece is misplaced, it will not be able to close tightly in the end, and the success will fall short.

The three tiles in Yunzhou's hand also need to be numbered, but because there are only three tiles, it is only a symbolic order and will not affect the final result.

The splicing of three pieces of porcelain is much more difficult than that of two pieces. It needs to constantly change the angle and radian, take care of up, down, left, and right, and ensure that the two pieces are completely aligned. It is equivalent to bonding twice, but it is more than twice as difficult.

By the time Yun Zhou had glued the three pieces of broken porcelain together, the sky had completely darkened.

He turned on the phone and took a look. It was already past eight o'clock, no wonder his stomach felt a little uncomfortable, it turned out that he was too hungry.

When he was about to put away his things and leave, he found that the glued broken porcelain pieces were faintly stained with red, like the color of blood.

Yun Zhou raised his hand, only to notice that the gauze was covered with blood.

I didn't feel it when I was focused just now, but only now did I suddenly feel a sharp tingling pain coming from my fingertips.

It turned out that the wound was open.

Yunzhou sighed softly, it seems that it is better not to toss about in the past few days.

He closed the laboratory door.

**

The first thing the boy did when he came home on the weekend was to take out a palm-sized mahogany jewelry box from the cabinet under Duobao Pavilion, and after opening it, he held the Panlong Jade Pendant made of Hetian Ziyu in his hand.

The jade pendant is white and ring-shaped, smooth and moist, with cold touch, very much like the feeling the emperor gave him, except that the emperor's body is colder.

He put on the jade pendant with a red string, and hung it around his neck to fit his skin. A cold feeling came from his collarbone instantly, dispelling the only bit of heat.

Xiao Yulong has recovered since he slept last time.

It straightened up high, tilted its head and looked at the place where it used to hide, with a little nostalgia in its obsidian-like eyes.

But now it is more willing to stay on the boy's wrist, it likes the warm body of this human being, it is very comfortable.

Little Yulong opened his mouth and let out a small yawn, his slender body tightly wrapped around the boy's wrist, like a high-quality jade bracelet glowing with silver.

It gently wrapped the other party's injured fingertips with the tip of its tail, and was very angry.

Huh, it must wrap its tail tightly around this finger, otherwise the boy will get hurt again, it doesn't like the other party getting hurt.

"Aww~ (If you get hurt again, I will bite you.)"

Xiao Yulong curled his tail and yelled at Yun Zhou in a childlike voice, and showed his baby teeth that hadn't grown yet to scare him, I want to threaten you——!

Yun Zhou touched the cold and smooth body of Little Yulong, watched it open its mouth to reveal its small milk teeth, and looked at it seriously, "Try to grow your teeth~"

(〝▼皮▼) Xiao Yulong was so angry that he bit him, but he didn't use any force, and there were only two little red dots on his wrist.

Yun Zhou smiled and ruaed the little jade dragon, then walked to the ancestral hall, clenched the jade pendant in his hand, "My lord, can I see you now?"

After he finished speaking, he stood there waiting anxiously, his breathing stopped for a moment, but 5 minutes passed, and the figure of Emperor Fengdu did not appear.

The boy lowered his eyes somewhat disappointed, and his slender eyelashes cast a shadow like butterfly wings.

Sure enough... can't it?

That's right, the Great Emperor has a lot of things to do every day, so how could he respond to a small human being casually.

He put the jade pendant back into his clothes, burned three sticks of incense in front of the portrait of Emperor Fengdu, stood in front of the portrait for a while, and was about to leave.

Before he left, he suddenly remembered what the emperor said in his dream, 'just call my name to the jade pendant. '

So, do you want to call the emperor's name?

Yun Zhou calmed down and looked at the handsome portrait hanging on the wall again, "...Bei Ji, can I see you?"

I don't know why, but the young man feels that calling out the name of the Great Emperor from his own mouth always has a very intimate feeling. It should be rare for people to call the Lord of the Underworld like this.

His face was reddish, and his expression was a little nervous.

"I'm here."

In the next moment, a tall man in a gold-rimmed robe stepped out of the painting and appeared in front of Yun Zhou.
