A Feng Shui Master's Guide to Cultivating Immortals

Chapter 22 The memorable "school uniform"

Before dying in the previous life, Chen Xiao drank a lot of medicine.Although the smell inside the cauldron is very fragrant, it has a slight bitterness.He will never forget the unique bitter taste of the medicine.

However, this cannot be used as evidence.What if this kind of spiritual incense is burned like this.Since Pang Hemu didn't believe it, Chen Ling didn't bring up the issue again.

So he turned to another discovery.He said: "I saw the pattern on the upper part of the bronze tripod, and I felt familiar. I observed it carefully just now, and thought about it again. Only then did I realize that the immortal masters I had selected from the immortal gate before , have seen similar patterns."

Pang Hemu choked a mouthful of tea into his throat and coughed for a long while.It was easy to catch my breath, and the wine was all sober.He took the towel that Chen Ling handed over, and wiped off the tea spilled on his shirt.Looking at Chen Xiao's face with half-belief and doubt: "Are you sure you remember correctly?" Chen Xiao nodded affirmatively: "I'm sure, what I saw is similar lines."

Chen Xiao remembered it very clearly, after all, the sight of three people falling from the sky was too shocking.

He could still clearly recall that although the three members of the Chongxuan sect wore clothes of different colors, they all had the same style of inlays and the same patterns.Although the styles are different, it can be seen at a glance that they belong to the same series.He once heard a person who likes to play ancient-style background games say that this series of clothes has a joking name called "school uniform".Chen Xiao felt that this style was similar to three coats, and it should be the standard clothing of the Chongxuan School.

The inlay patterns he saw on their "school uniforms" were indeed similar to the ones on this bronze tripod.Compared with the decorations he has seen on other antiques, it is more complicated, more mysterious, and more regular.

Pang Hemu stood up and circled the tripod twice.After thinking for a while, he shook his head and said, "It's far-fetched to think that this tripod is an antique of immortals. Like the royal family of Dai, the royal family of Zheng came from the family of descendants of immortal cultivators. These people The utensils used at home will inevitably be infected with the habits of immortals, and become a practice and spread outside."

Chen Xiao said: "What does the Dong family mean to say that this multi-treasure pattern is also the same? After seeing it from the real utensils of the cultivators, the Zheng royal family used it on the copper tripod, and then passed it down to the present?"

Pang Hemu's expression became more solemn, he was noncommittal, and only said: "It's getting late, you should go back too. Don't think too much, don't delay getting up early tomorrow and going to work."

Chen Xiao bid farewell as good as he could, and when he left, he could still see Pang and Mu standing in front of Tongding with heavy backs.

He understood that although Pang Hemu said he didn't believe it, in fact he had already been persuaded by Chen Xiao in his heart.However, before the news was uncertain, he would of course not show any tendency to agree with Chen Xiao's speculation, so as not to leak the news.

After all, if what Chen Xiao said is true, it will not only cause a sensation in the antique street in the county city, but even the entire collection circle in Dai country will be shaken.No one has ever seen such a large tripod-like fairy antique before.

The next day Chen Xiao came to work in the fairy pavilion on a snow tour. The copper tripod was no longer placed in the center of the shop, but moved to the back.

Except for the room in the corner where Chen Xiao lived in the backyard, the house facing the front belonged to the owner, and he was always in this room when he came to check the accounts or talk to the shopkeeper.On the side is a well-protected collection room, where the antiques that are truly regarded as the treasures of the town store are kept. When there are big customers, the big shopkeeper will personally lead them to look at them.

Anyone who came here because of yesterday's bustling scene was politely rejected. Only the old man with the goatee and the old man surnamed Qi with the square hat were ushered into the backyard.

Chen Xiao stood in front of the display rack he was in charge of. Just now, the shopkeeper of the utensils and tripods was called in. Now he and another guy are the only ones in this area.He counted in his heart, and when he counted from one to more than 300, the master shopkeeper came out.He glanced at Chen Ling with a complicated expression, and said to him: "The boss told you to go in. When you answer, think carefully."

Chen Xiao followed behind the shopkeeper and stepped into the main room in the backyard for the first time.The second room of the main room is a rather large study room. At this time, the bronze tripod is being placed on the ground, and there are several people sitting or standing around it.They are Pang Hemu, the shopkeeper, the old man with the goatee, and the old man surnamed Qi.

When the big shopkeeper saw him coming in, he took the initiative to say: "Come forward." When Chen Xiao walked over and stood up with his hands tied, he raised his hand to lead the two old men. There is Mr. Qi. He is a figure like Taishan Beidou among the collectors in the county."

Chen Xiao greeted the two old people politely, not at all moved by the words he heard just now.He is used to it, and occasionally brings out familiar idioms or allusions from the mouths of the local aborigines.Obviously there is no Taishan here, and there is no Big Dipper, so it seems a little strange that words like Taishan Beidou pop up.

He can only think that this world had a certain relationship with the time and space of the previous life in the early days, or that this world evolved from a parallel world.

Mr. Ma looked Chen Xiao up and down. He was very thin, but he asked in a loud voice: "It was you who proposed it. I suspect that this bronze tripod is an antique of immortals? Seeing that you are young, but you are not timid, you dare to guess." .”

Chen Xiao replied neither humble nor overbearing: "Mr. Ma, you are a highly respected senior with profound knowledge. The boy has only been in contact with antiques for a short time, and his knowledge is shallow, so his ideas are inevitably absurd. If there are any mistakes or omissions, please advise the senior."

Qi Lao glared at Ma Lao: "Don't delay the business." Then he unceremoniously stepped forward and grabbed Chen Xiao's arm, pulling him over.He pointed to a booklet spread out on the desk, and said to him, "Come and see, is there any pattern like the one you've seen in this booklet?"

This entire atlas is full of textures and patterns, and there are hundreds of them in a thick book.The pages of the album are yellow, and despite the careful preservation, the edges are inevitably worn out.Mr. Qi cherished this album very much, and he didn't even let Chen Xiao touch it, but carefully flipped through the pages with his own hands.

Each page has a pattern, all kinds of lines evolved from animals, plants, utensils and so on.Turning to the end, it turned into a pattern similar to the transformation of hieroglyphics.Chen Xiao had to say that these patterns are really complete, probably all the patterns that have appeared on antiques can be found here.It's no wonder that Mr. Qi is so careful, how much thought and time it takes to sort out such a complete set of information.

"You can see clearly, is there a pattern like the one you've seen on it?" Elder Qi asked with a hint of nervousness in his tone.

Ma Lao snorted next to him: "Didn't you read it twice just now, don't you know if there are similar patterns?"

From the few words, Chen Xiao judged that before he came, the people in the room had already found a pattern similar to the treasure pattern on the copper tripod in this album.However, they did not find it.

Chen Ling didn't think it was strange at all. After flipping through the booklet, the pattern transformed from hieroglyphs was already very close to the multi-treasure pattern on the bronze tripod, but it was far inferior to the exquisiteness and complexity of the bronze tripod.

The comparison between the two is as if the ones in the book are simplified counterfeit products, while the ones on the copper tripod are the original authentic products.

Turning over the last page, Chen Xiao shook his head: "I didn't see any similar pattern on it to the one I saw on the immortal master."

Pang Hemu laughed loudly: "It seems that there is no need to argue anymore, this bronze tripod is really an antique of immortals."

Mr. Qi took a deep breath, his hands were shaking with excitement, but he still insisted and said: "I still dare not draw such a conclusion. Maybe this is a kind that has not been included. Besides, it came from other lands. There are also many ancient relics that are very different from those in our country."

Ma Lao snorted again: "You are deceiving yourself and others! Yesterday, I was blushing and thick-necked from arguing with me yesterday. How could the distinctive national characteristics of beasts and tuanhua come from other lands?!"

Pang Hemu was overjoyed, so he acted as a peacemaker in a good-humored manner: "Don't argue, you two, if you have any doubts, we can speak slowly. Mr. Ma, tell me what you think."

Mr. Ma twisted his goatee, and said: "It's not wrong that the pattern of beasts came from the Zheng State period. Since it was made by the immortal family, it is not unusual for the flowers to linger continuously. Lao Qi and I saw the multi-treasure pattern at the time. I just thought it was to fill in the gaps. Now it seems that I’m afraid it’s outrageous. Beasts and Tuanhua are the gaps, and the multi-treasure pattern is the key point. At that time, only King Zheng could make such a bronze tripod. The immortal cultivator of the ancestor. I think this copper tripod was left in the family after leaving, and was sold as an ordinary sacrificial vessel by the descendants. Nephew Pang Xian, congratulations, you are really a A shocking leak."

As expected of Taishan Beidou with profound and profound knowledge, he deduced the real owner of this bronze tripod only by these clues.

After Mr. Ma said this, Pang and Mu couldn't help laughing.

At this time, Elder Qi said: "Nephew Pang Xian, this old man has something to ask, can you allow me to rub a copy of the pattern on this bronze tripod?"

Pang Hemu hesitated for a moment: "This..." Once it is confirmed that this is really an antique of immortals, the multi-treasure pattern on it will become a real treasure.Pang Hemu, a real fan of cultivating immortals, is naturally reluctant to spread the word.

But looking at Elder Qi's expectant and pleading eyes, and thinking about the friendship between the two, Pang and Mu still agreed.

After finding out the origin of the copper tripod, Pang and Mu did not intend to sell the tripod.It can also be regarded as his biggest gain from following the trail of immortals since he was a child.He wants to keep this bronze tripod as a family heirloom, so that his descendants can admire his great achievements.

Pang Hemu has always been a generous person, and this time he won a treasure, he did not forget to send generous gifts to the relevant people.Not only did Mr. Qi, Mr. Ma, and the shopkeeper get rich red envelopes, but even Chen Xiao also received a reward of the same amount.If it weren't for his words to wake up the dreamer, everyone would have missed this treasure and made it fall into the dark.

The news that the bronze tripod newly obtained by Treadxue Xunxian Pavilion is an antique of immortals spread like wildfire.Originally, Pang and Mu didn't plan to hide it, but they didn't expect the news to spread so fast.

But immediately afterwards, Pang and Mu were questioned by the owners of several other shops of the same size on the Antique Street, suspecting that he was pretending to be fake.Use that bronze tripod to pretend to be an immortal antique, so as to elevate the status of Taxue Xunxian Pavilion.After all, there is no real proof that the bronze tripod is an antique of immortals.But now Taxue Xunxian Pavilion, which has only been open for more than ten years, has become the most famous one on the Antique Street.

After hearing these remarks, Pang Hemu was immediately furious.
