The formal class started two days after the registration. Another roommate, Han Xing, also returned to the dormitory on time.
Korean star is from Northeast China. However, he is not very tall and burly, but rather thin. He is cheerful and generous. He is especially fascinated by CS. He organizes a team and often takes the team out to play games. He is also known in the CS circle.
The days passed quietly. There was nothing special. Apart from attending classes, Zhao Rui always found a secluded place to practice the eight wasteland killing immortals.
In addition, sometimes he would go to the school library to borrow some ancient myths and legends as well as various historical materials about magic tools.
The reason why he borrowed these materials was mainly to learn more about Xiuzhen. He had never touched this knowledge before, and the most he could do was to read Xiuzhen novels.
That morning, he leaned against the bedside and was staring at a pile of materials in a daze when his mobile phone suddenly rang.
Zhao Rui heard that it was Sun Xiaolan.
"Xiao Rui, do you have time?"
"Yes! What's the matter, sister LAN?"
"If you have time, go out with me!"
"Where are you going?" Zhao Rui rubbed his forehead wearily.
"Academy gate."
"Academy gate? It's an antique market. Why go there if you have nothing to do?" Zhao Rui was puzzled.
"My mother's birthday is next week. I want to buy her some presents."
"Oh? It's my aunt's birthday! That's a gift. However, the gate of the academy is very deep. It's hard for people who don't know how to buy genuine goods. Even if they buy genuine goods, they may not be worth the price."
Sun Xiaolan said at the other end of the phone: "it's all right, it's all right. I don't have much money on me, and I don't plan to buy any valuable antiques. I'll spend a little money and find a gadget to make my mother happy. It's better to buy a fake one at home."
"In that case... OK, I'll come down right away. Where are you waiting for me?"
"Basketball court."
"Oh, OK, I'll be right there." Zhao Rui agreed to come down and began to change clothes and shoes.
Today is Saturday. Zhou Wei went to the Conservatory of music as early as last night to play with mm. So far, no one has been seen. Because Korean star and Luo Cheng played CS online with other dormitories at night, they played CS until three or four o'clock in the morning. They are still sleeping with their heads covered. However, he spent several hours in the dorm reading the materials. It is really boring.
When they met sun Xiaolan on the basketball court, they left the school directly and took a bus to the gate of the Academy.
The gate of the academy is not a gate, but a street. On both sides of the street, there are more than 100 shops such as inscriptions and rubbings, antique calligraphy and paintings, seals and seals, and four treasures of the study.
The red lacquer lattice door of the shop is half open, and the large and small lake pens hang down from the eaves of the door, with a strong ancient flavor.
Occasionally, I can see some vendors who secretly set up stalls in this street. However, when the Chengguan comes, they roll things around and the wind blows away.
Dong'an is an ancient capital, and the antique trade is extremely prosperous. As the largest antique market in Dong'an, the Academy gate has an unknown number of hidden and hidden transactions. People who can do business here are not simple.
It's probably due to Saturday. In addition, this street is originally a famous tourist attraction. The narrow streets are crowded with people.
Sun Xiaolan happily looked here and there. From time to time, she even went to the shop on the street and picked up some small items to bargain with the boss. But after shopping for most of the day, she finally didn't buy anything.
"I'm asking for information." Afraid of Zhao Rui's impatience, sun Xiaolan solemnly defended herself.
Zhao Rui is very angry and funny. It is clear that there are only a few hundred yuan in the budget. There are very few things that can be bought here. He also said that he would like to explore the market. In fact, he likes shopping. However, it is not easy to expose her when he sees her so excited.
Before he could speak, sun xiaolantu pointed forward again: "Hey, go to that antique shop!"
After that, Zhao Rui ran away. Zhao Rui had to smile bitterly and followed him.
It was a very elegant antique shop. It was a three story building. The decoration inside was luxurious but not tacky in the ancient charm. Several clerks dressed in Tang Dynasty clothes were standing inside.
Zhao Rui looked up at the plaque of the antique shop. The three gilded characters "Ji Bao Zhai" reflected the sunlight and made people feel a little dizzy.
"Ji Bao Zhai?"
He thought the name was a little familiar, and when he thought about it carefully, he suddenly remembered that when he was working as a part-time waiter in a bar, he heard a guest say that jibaozhai seems to be the largest antique shop in the gate of the Academy, with a history of nearly 20 years. The boss Wu Liang started his business by robbing tombs. He has a group of highly skilled tomb robbers. He has great influence in the Academy gate. At least half of the curios in the Curio Shop come from unknown sources. It is only because he has a bit of indirect relationship with the Dong'an cloud family. So far, he is as safe as Mount Tai and has not had any problems.
After 20 years of wealth accumulation, Wu Liang can be said to be quite rich. However, he is extremely stingy and haggling over every penny. In addition, he has another problem, that is, he does not trust anyone except himself. He has to do everything himself. It's quite good to do business with him without being cheated. It's even more difficult to make a profit.
Zhao Rui originally wanted to stop sun Xiaolan, but Sun Xiaolan had already run into the store, so he had to follow him.
The clerk in the shop saw the two people come in and glanced at them. He turned his eyes away and didn't go up to greet them. Having worked as a shop assistant in jibaozhai for such a long time, I have been trained to be extremely fierce. I can tell who comes to buy things and who doesn't come to wander around at a glance.
Obviously, the two people who come in now belong to the latter, and they are too lazy to spend energy to entertain.
Sun Xiaolan is really the kind who strolls around. When she enters the shop, she chooses some exquisite antiques to watch.
However, Zhao Rui was different. The moment he stepped into the Ji Bao Zhai, he noticed that the antiques in the Ji Bao Zhai all had a slight aura, and the aura of each kind of antiques was different.
Zhao Rui felt strange at first. After thinking about it carefully, he immediately realized that most of these antiques were buried underground until they were discovered by accident. If you absorb the spirit of heaven and earth underground for a long time, you will certainly bring some. The longer they are buried, the more Aura they contain.
In addition, those curios that are beautifully made embody the wisdom and Inspiration of the makers, and they contain more aura.
As for those fake goods, naturally they can not contain any aura and can be identified at a glance.
Zhao Rui realized this point and was slightly happy. He began to wonder if he could use this skill to pick up leaks in the antique shop and take the opportunity to make a fortune, so that he could completely get rid of poverty and become well-off.
However, after walking around the Ji Bao Zhai, he found that the antiques here were quite expensive, and there was no room for him to find them.
Zhao Rui's plan to find the leak was suddenly dashed. He could not help feeling disappointed. He was about to call Luo Cheng to leave when he suddenly found a small yellow jade plate in an inconspicuous corner of the glass counter.
This jade plate is simple in style but dull in luster. Because it is far away, I can't see it clearly.
Zhao Rui's attention was almost instantly attracted by this jade plate, because he felt an extremely powerful aura on this jade plate!
Zhao Rui went to the counter and carefully identified the jade plate. His heart suddenly beat rapidly.
This jade plate is actually made of geocentric jade essence!
The so-called "geocentric jade essence" refers to the deep buried underground jade mine. After thousands of years of scouring and absorbing the spirit of heaven and earth, all the essence is gathered on a small piece of spirit jade.
In hundreds of thousands of tons of jade, it is possible to produce such a jade essence!
The jade essence in the center of the earth contains enormous spiritual power, which is of great help to the practitioners. If properly absorbed, the strength of the practitioners can be greatly improved in a short time!
Zhao Rui wholeheartedly promotes his strength to the middle stage of the soul grabbing. This jade essence in the center of the earth undoubtedly plays an extremely important role for him!
