Chapter 571 Blood Qin
Chapter 571 Xue Qin
There are many more night markets in Shenzhen City than in City B, and they are also more lively. However, having been in Xianghe Town for most of the year, Tang Meng'er looked excited even though she had not been exposed to such a lively night market for a long time.
Qiao Muyue was much calmer.
"Let's go, complete the mission tonight!"
A group of three people started walking on the street.
The stalls in the night market are relatively mixed, with almost everything. Some sell snacks, some sell woodworking stools, and some sell some miscellaneous books...
The three of them walked to a small stall and stopped to look at it for a while. Tang Meng'er saw the jewelry box at the small stall selling woodworking. It was made of small rosewood and was very exquisitely made. Although it was not big, it could hold some daily necessities.
The small jewelry is definitely enough, and there is a small mirror inside when you open the lid, which is really nice.
She bought three of them in one go, all three had the same shape, but with different patterns. She gave one to each of Qiao Muyue and Liu Xiaoqin.
Liu Xiaoqin fell in love with pens at a small stall selling stationery and bought three pens, one for each person.
Qiao Muyue was browsing the small stalls, but she hadn't bought anything yet. After all, she didn't like anything. When she was halfway through, she saw a small stall selling jade. Her eyes lit up and she walked over.
Tang Menger and Liu Xiaoqin were buying snacks. When they turned around, they saw Qiao Muyue walking towards a small stall selling jade, and they hurriedly followed.
Qiao Muyue squatted on the small stall in front of her. At this time, some people gathered around the stall. The stall owner had a mustache. He sat aside and drank tea without saying anything, letting those people look at it. Some people asked about the price.
He just took a look and said a price.
However, the price was a bit high every time, and those who asked about the price only had to make counter-offers without replying, so those people could only put down their things and leave.
Qiao Muyue looked at these things and raised her eyebrows. This mustached man was a colleague of Wu Laosi, and he was also engaged in reselling ghost artifacts.
The small things on his stall are all funerary objects. The middle one is a jade cicada, but this jade cicada has a red patch and looks like blood jade. Just now these people were asking about the price of this jade cicada.
Liu Xiaoqin and Tang Meng'er walked to Qiao Muyue. They also saw the bloody jade cicada on the stall. They were both a little curious. Tang Meng'er frowned: "This doesn't look like blood jade!"
Tang Meng'er spoke very quietly. She was not a fool, so she couldn't speak so loudly to delay other people's business.
There are many jade trading markets in Wenqiang. Although Tang Meng'er has not studied jade, he can tell that the blood color of this jade cicada is not normal.
Qiao Muyue smiled and was just about to explain to Tang Meng'er when she heard a man say: "Boss, how much does this jade cicada cost?"
No one is surprised, because many people have already asked about the price.
The mustachioed boss didn’t even raise his head: “Three thousand yuan!”
The bearded man always pays this price every time, and it has never been lower, so no one is surprised. The bearded man who asked the price was a little surprised, and took a breath: "Your price is a bit high!"
The mustache didn't explain or say anything, he just smiled and continued drinking tea.
The bearded man carefully picked up the jade cicada, looked at it again and again, and touched it carefully under the light. After a while, he tentatively asked: "How about two thousand?"
The mustached man said nothing, as if he didn't hear what the bearded man said.
The onlookers spoke up: "Don't ask, the boss won't counter-offer, let alone two thousand, there was an offer of two thousand and eighty dollars just now, but he didn't even sell it!"
When the bearded man heard this, his expression changed, and then he put the jade cicada back to its original position with some reluctance, then got up and left.
Liu Xiaoqin laughed at the side and said: "This boss has quite a personality! But this jade cicada is a bit expensive, three thousand yuan!"
Three thousand yuan can buy a small yard in the town.
Tang Meng'er said: "If this blood jade is real, it is worth three thousand yuan, but no matter how I look at it, I feel that the color of this blood jade is not right!"
Tang Meng'er didn't lower her voice intentionally this time, so the people next to her could hear it. Her mustache raised her eyes and glanced at Qiao Muyue and the others, said nothing, and continued drinking tea.
But an onlooker next to him laughed and said: "Little girl, this is because you have little knowledge. This is real blood jade. Think carefully about what this jade cicada does!"
After saying that, the man smiled again and said nothing.
Tang Meng'er didn't quite understand. She looked at the jade cicada again and didn't see anything.
Qiao Muyue said: "There are many jade ornaments in the shape of this jade cicada, but there is only one possibility for this jade cicada shape, and that is the tongue depressor!"
Although Tang Meng'er was playing with jade, she still knew this kind of knowledge. After hearing this, she took a step back, then looked at the jade cicada carefully, showing a strange expression.
When the others heard the word "tongue depressor", they didn't say anything. Obviously they all knew that everything on this stall was made from the soil.
Liu Xiaoqin didn't know what a tongue depressor was. Seeing everyone's understanding, she curiously asked Qiao Muyue in a low voice: "What is a tongue depressor?"
Qiao Muyue explained softly: "The tongue depressor is a jade that is placed in the mouth after death. Usually the images of cicadas, silkworms, fish, etc. are the main ones. Some people say that the tongue depressor is used to prevent people from saying bad things in the Hall of Hell after death.
, some people say that the tongue depressor can keep the body from decaying, anyway, there are many explanations..."
Liu Xiaoqin understood. This time when she looked at the delicate jade cicada, she felt obedient and uncomfortable.
"let's go!"
Liu Xiaoqin took Qiao Muyue and Tang Menger.
Tang Meng'er shook her head, then looked at Qiao Muyue: "Sister Yue, is this blood jade real? Is the color wrong?"
Tang Meng'er heard what Lao Ma said about Qiao Muyue's interpretation of stone and found millions of imperial glass species, so she naturally felt that Qiao Muyue must know a lot about jade.
Everyone looked at Qiao Muyue, even with her mustache. They also became curious about Qiao Muyue, because Qiao Muyue knew that this was a tongue depressor, and she could also see that the things on the stall were from the underworld.
Qi, obviously not an ordinary person, they also want to hear what this little girl has to say.
Qiao Muyue smiled, then knelt down and picked up the jade cicada: "Actually speaking, most people think that blood jade, especially this kind of tongue-pressing jade, is what is formed in the blood jade of corpses.
, so we need blood again.”
"But anyone who can look at jade here should know that the so-called blood Qin is unscientific. Human blood will carbonize and will not be retained for a long time, nor will it penetrate into the jade. Of course, some people also use sheep's blood
Cutting open the skin, stuffing the jade inside, and forcing living animals to make ancient jade or even blood qin, but they all failed, so the real blood qin is only an oxide qin formed by the combination of jade and iron elements in the soil.
It goes into jade to form this dark red thing."
