Chapter 212: Treasures in the Magic City

Pei Miao didn't know why, but she suddenly felt as if she was full of strength. This time, she didn't even dodge, and stretched out her left hand with great confidence to flick lightly. The Taidao stabbing at his chest swung to the right, and cut directly on Wuliangzu's foot.

"Ah!" Wuliangzu yelled in pain, this kick naturally couldn't hit Pei Miao again, but fortunately, he didn't fall down because of his strong footwork, and he jumped with one foot, pulling the swordsman Jumping onto the courtyard wall next to it, with one foot, carrying a woman weighing about 100 kilograms on her back, and pulling a man weighing more than [-] kilograms, jumping onto the courtyard wall, it can be seen how powerful Wuliangzu's feet are.

After being pulled up to the top of the wall by Wuliangzu, the swordsman swung the Taidao along the momentum and smashed the three flower pots on the top of the wall to pieces. Countless soil and flower pot fragments flew towards Pei Miao, covering the sky and covering the ground.

No matter how fast Pei Miao moved, she couldn't dodge, so she could only protect her head with her arms to prevent the broken flower pots from hitting her vitals. It took only a second or two until the rain of mud and broken tiles passed, but Pei Miao focused her eyes. When I looked again, I saw only the vast black night, and they had long since disappeared.

At this time, lights were turned on in the yard, and it was obvious that the breaking of the flowerpot had alarmed the owner.

Pei Miao hurriedly shook off the dirt all over her body, and quickly chased forward.

The residential area of ​​this old alley is very large, and the terrain is very complicated. Pei Miao wandered around like a chicken without a head for a long time, and couldn't find the other party at all.

And at this time, he suddenly felt that there seemed to be energy in his body, and he was startled, and hurriedly used the inner vision of the whole mind domain, and found that Jie Li had already started to operate at some point.

Pei Miao hurriedly found a bluestone step and sat down, tried to calm himself down, and at the same time adjusted his breathing, trying to stop Jie Li from functioning. In order to reduce his consumption as much as possible, he wished that even his thoughts would be still, and that any distracting thoughts would not be exhausted. Dare to have, let your brain go blank.

After sitting here for about 15 minutes, Pei Miao finally felt that the Jieli in his body had returned to calm, and he was greatly relieved.

Although Hei Tianjie didn't have an attack, Pei Miao's mood couldn't improve. He was being targeted by the islanders, and the other party seemed to have a lot of robbers. So far, he has met five islanders, two of them There is a color-empty pupil, a boundless foot, a Taixu eye, and a beast master. As for the swordsman with the sword, he seems to be just a ronin, not a robber, because Pei Miao didn't know when he fought him. He felt that there was robbery on him.

Pei Miao didn't know how the archipelago would deal with him next, and whether his friends would be involved. He wouldn't live long anyway, so he didn't need to care about these enemies, but his friends were ordinary people living ordinary lives. Thinking of this, he felt very troubled.

No matter how troubled he was, he couldn't solve the problem. Pei Miao let out a long sigh, got up and walked back, because he was not very familiar with the terrain here, and in the middle of the night, the lights were dim, so it was really difficult to find the right way. Fortunately, he remembered the house number, and after searching for about four or ten minutes, he finally returned to Zhizang's old house.

There is a scorched spot the size of a goose egg on the bed, and the wooden board at the scorched spot has basically been charred, as is the case with the sword in the pupil. Although it takes a few seconds to shake it forward, once the high temperature is generated, it can instantly burn the steel red.

Fortunately, Pei Miao stepped on the flames on the bed board just now, otherwise the old house would have been burned to ashes now, not only that, the houses here are all close to each other, and many of the roofs are still Small tiles, there are bamboo mats, plastic leather thatch and other things under the small tiles. Once a fire occurs, it is difficult to extinguish it, and it may cause a large fire that will burn the Qibaili Company.

After the attack just now, Pei Miao didn't dare to sleep too deeply, so she half-lyed there with her eyes closed and rested.

In the deluxe room of the International Hotel in Shanghai, the islanders who attacked Pei Miao just now were all dealing with their wounds. They looked very embarrassed, and the most seriously injured was the girl with black pupils. Her eyes had been reflected by the mirror. The sword in her pupils was blinded, and all her tribulation skills were useless. At this moment, she was trembling all over, and she could already imagine her end.

"Ito." The swordsman said in the island language after healed his injuries, "Is this Pei Miao a robber?"

Before Ito Guimu could answer, Wuliangzu said first: "It must be Jienu, how can a normal person be so powerful, the light just now was so dim, but his movements were not affected at all, and... Ito's Taixu Eyes are useless to him!"

Ito nodded slowly and said: "That's right, I'm sure that Pei Miao is a robber, and a robber with a very powerful ability, who can actually crack my Taixu eyes..."

Xuan Tong finally spoke: "Ito-kun, I beg you one thing."

Ito said: "Speak."

Xuantong said: "If... I, Hei Tianjie, have an attack, please kill me."

Ito was silent when he heard the words. He is also a robber, so he can naturally understand the suffering of the robber. After a while, he slowly said: "Don't worry, we have successfully completed the task this time, I will plead with the master for you, let He spared your life."

Wuliangzu also said: "Minako, don't worry, I will also intercede with the master for you."

Ito took out his mobile phone and said, "Don't talk, I'm going to report the mission to the master."

After he finished speaking, he dialed the owner's number. In order for his companions to hear him, he turned on the hands-free function on purpose.

The phone was connected, but there was no sound coming from the other end. It was Ito who took the initiative to speak: "Master, it's me, Ito Onime."

"Say."

"We have already done what you asked, and found out the details of that Pei Miao. He is indeed Jie slave."

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a few seconds, before slowly asking: "Then... what kind of ability is he?"

"This..." Ito was a little flustered. Fortunately, he has led the team for many years, so he hurriedly said, "We don't dare to jump to conclusions. After all, our vision is limited. I want you to decide, master."

"Tell me, what's special about him."

Ito began to narrate: "First, Minako sneaked into his room and hit him with the sword in his eyes while he was sleeping, but he escaped. He seems to have night vision just like Minako."

"go on."

Ito continued: "His speed is very fast, even Kojiro's sword-drawing technique can't hurt him."

"anything else?"

"Also..." Ito said again, "My Taixu Eye doesn't have any effect on him."

The other end of the phone was silent for a few seconds, and then said: "Okay, I see."

"Master, don't hang up the phone yet."

"What else?"

"Master, one of us is injured."

"Injured? Four of you hit him, and he was still injured?" The voice on the other end of the phone seemed unhappy.

Ito hurriedly said: "Master, he is too powerful, and even my Taixu Eye is useless to him, and he also knows how to restrain the sword in the pupil, and used a mirror to reflect the sword in the pupil, hurting Minako's eye. "

"Minako's eyes are ruined?"

"Yes, it is."

"Tell her not to come back."

When Minako heard this, she immediately knelt down on the ground, knocked her head on the floor vigorously, and shouted: "Master, spare me!"

Ito also hurriedly said: "Master, if there is no Minako this time, we will not be able to complete the task, please see her for the sake of her contribution, please spare her life!"

Wuliangzu also quickly knelt down on the ground and said loudly: "I beg the master to spare Minako's life."

The voice on the other side of the phone became cold: "When did you robber slaves dare to interfere with my decision-making?"

"I don't dare!" Ito and Wuliangzu hurriedly answered with trembling voices.

"If there is a next time, don't come back." After saying this, the phone hung up.

Wuliangzu and Ito looked at each other, then looked sadly at Minako.

Minako still put her head on the ground and didn't get up for a long time. She wanted to cry, but her eyes were ruined, and she didn't even have the right to cry.

........................................................................

Pei Miao was half asleep and half awake until dawn. After dawn, he went out for a walk, saw a store, bought some toiletries and three bottles of purified water, and went back to wash.

He had just finished washing when Shulong called. Pei Miao connected the phone, only to hear Shulong's excited voice on the other end of the phone: "Pei Miao, Chongbao, Chongbao has appeared."

Pei Miao asked, "What treasure?"

Shulong was very excited and said: "Chicken Cup, Mingcheng Huacai Chicken Cup!"

Pei Miao was pleasantly surprised when he heard this, this is really a treasure, Ming Chenghua Doucai chicken bowl cup, the king of porcelain, the quantity is so rare and the value is so high, it is outrageous.

In April 1999, at the national cultural relics and artwork auction held by Sotheby's in the port area, a well-preserved Ming Chenghua fighting color chicken bowl cup was sold for a sky-high price of 4 Hong Kong dollars, which became the ancient Chinese cultural relics auction at that time. The highest transaction record of porcelain in the auction market.

In August 2014, at the National Porcelain and Handicrafts Spring Auction held by Sotheby's, the Chicken Crock Cup once again broke the world auction record for Chinese porcelain with a sky-high price of 8 million Hong Kong dollars.

Antiques, the more prosperous the world is, the faster the appreciation. In recent years, my country's economy has developed rapidly, and the price of cigarettes has risen every year, let alone antiques. It is unimaginable what price the chicken bowl cup has risen to now. .

Pei Miao hurriedly asked, "Where did the Chicken Crock Cup appear? Jinling?"

"No, in Shanghai." Shulong said, "And it was at the auction. This auction was held by Rongbaozhai. In Shanghai, the chicken bowl cup has been confirmed to be auctioned, and Rongbaozhai also specially published it. I bought a promotional brochure, it says there are chicken bowl cups, and you will never guess, this time it is a pair of chicken bowl cups! A pair! My God! How much money did this take! I can’t imagine, no Dare to think..."

Rongbaozhai is the largest antique shop in Kyoto and even the whole country, located in Liulichang in Kyoto.

However, the Rongbaozhai mentioned by Shulong is the Rongbaozhai Auction Company, and the owner behind it is naturally the owner of the Rongbaozhai Antique Shop. The Rongbaozhai Auction Company enjoys a high reputation in Shanghai, especially for antique auctions. Yes, every time a filming starts, it is overcrowded and it is hard to get a number one.

Why is this, because Rongbaozhai Antique Store is the only antique store in the country that ensures that everything in the store is genuine. Apart from Rongbaozhai, only major museums can do this.

Naturally, the same is true for Rongbaozhai Auction House. Once any antique sold at Rongbaozhai Auction is proven to be a fake, Rongbaozhai will compensate the buyer for all losses. It is so confident and arrogant.

Pei Miao thought for a while and asked, "Did Boss Liu sell it?"

The Boss Liu mentioned by Pei Miao was the one who bought the chicken bowl cup at Sotheby's auction in 2014. Boss Liu is from Shanghai, and this time the chicken bowl cup was auctioned in Shanghai again. Pei Miao was the first It took me a while to think about whether it might be provided by Boss Li.

Shulong said: "No, in the brochure printed by Rongbaozhai, it is said that the sender of the chicken bowl cup is Mr. Li, and the chicken bowl cup auctioned this time is a pair! Not one!"

"Oh, yes." Pei Miao asked, "How do you know this?"

Shulong said: "In order to expand the source of goods, I have already found some ways in Shanghai. This news was told to me by the supplier in Shanghai. He also specially sent me a photo of the brochure for me to read. Going to take a look at the chicken bowl cup, it feels extravagant, and the official shooting will start in four days, and before that, there will be a two-day preview, to put it bluntly, it is a marketing tool."

Pei Miao smiled and said, "Then you can come to Shanghai to participate in the preview, and taste the luxury of the chicken bowl cup at close range. I will wait for you in Shanghai."

The tree dragon asked suspiciously: "Aren't you going with me? By the way, you went to look for the gourd yesterday, did you find it?"

"I don't want the gourd, it was a friend of mine, I gave it to him." Pei Miao said, "I'm already in Shanghai now."

"What? You are already in Shanghai?" Shulong asked in surprise, "Why are you going to Shanghai?"

Pei Miao said, "Look for a gourd."

"Did you find the gourd and go to the devil's capital?"

"That's right, otherwise why would there be no news for a whole day." Pei Miao said with a smile, "Okay, you can set a time. When you come over, I'll pick you up."

"Don't pick me up. Hurry up and book a hotel near the auction venue. I'm afraid you won't be able to book it if it's too late. I still have something to do, so I'll be there tomorrow."

"Okay, then send me the address of the auction."

"Well, I'll send it to you, hang up first."

After Shulong finished speaking, he hung up the phone, and after about a minute, the address was sent.

Pei Miao looked at the address and located the location. It was a bit far away. Considering that the Chicken Bowl Cup might attract a lot of people to Shanghai, the hotels near the auction venue would definitely be very nervous. He didn't want to waste any more time. Hurry up. Go out, find your own car, drive to book a hotel.

An hour later, Pei Miao arrived near the auction venue, and then drove around looking for hotels. There were only a few big hotels nearby. Pei Miao picked a hotel called Hyatt, went straight to the front desk of the lobby, and asked if they had any rooms. .

The beauty at the front desk smiled politely, then shook her head: "I'm sorry, sir, our rooms were fully booked last night."

Pei Miao was very disappointed and was just about to leave when the elevator door opened and several people came out of the elevator. They turned out to be several old experts from the Jinling Cultural Relics Bureau, including Mr. Huang.

Although Huang Lao only saw Pei Miao's back, he recognized Pei Miao at a glance, and called out tentatively, "Pei Miao?"

Pei Miao turned around and was overwhelmed with surprise: "Old Huang?"

Huang Lao quickened his pace, came to Pei Miao, and asked with a smile, "Why are you here?"

Pei Miao smiled, and said, "It's not that I heard that the Rongbaozhai Auction in Shanghai's capital city has auctions of fighting color chicken bowl cups. I want to go to the preview to see it."

Huang Lao laughed immediately when he heard the words: "Haha, you are also here for the Doucai Chicken Cup."

The three old experts beside Mr. Huang also laughed.

Hearing what he said, Pei Miao knew that these people must have come here for the chicken bowl cup. Thinking about it, too, when such a treasure appeared, how could they, old experts who love antiques, not take a look.
