Chapter 2 What is this?
After leaving the villa, Liu Yiyang ran quickly.
It took him more than two hours to run back to school and his dormitory. He lie on the bed without considering his sweat all over his body and gasping heavily. In this familiar environment, his heart finally calmed down.
The vigorous exercise made him suppress his previous uneasiness.
At this time, there was no one in the dormitory. They either went to class or played basketball. The quiet environment slowly slowed down Liu Yiyang's heartbeat.
Although he was reluctant to believe in everything today, did not believe in any magical artifacts in this world, and had penetrated into his body, reason told him that all this was true and that it was something that had really happened.
This is also the first time that Liu Yiyang has encountered something at a loss in 20 years.
No one could even tell about this matter, and he didn't dare to say it at all. Although the kind old man had been helping and protecting him, he finally warned him not to tell these things.
…………
"Last brother, what's wrong with you today? You've been listless. Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Just after class the next afternoon, Liu Wei, the fifth brother in the dormitory, came over and asked with great concern.
There are six people in their dormitory, and he and the fifth brother Liu Wei have the same surname, so they have the best relationship.
Liu Wei's family conditions are similar to that of Liu Yiyang. He also works outside to study. He works in a hotel near the Antique City. Usually, they would walk together after school every afternoon and go to work together.
"I'm fine. I might have been tired yesterday, so I'll have a rest!"
Liu Yiyang shook his head quickly. He was constantly recalling every detail of what happened yesterday all day today. It would be strange if he was in good spirits.
Liu Wei had no doubts about his words and said as he walked: "Then you come back early after finishing work today!"
Liu Wei rode a bicycle and took Liu Yiyang out. The place where the two worked was not far and near. In order to save some bus fares, they bought this second-hand bicycle together and usually rode in turns.
The two of them smiled and said that this car saves money and exercises the body, killing two birds with one stone.
There were not many people on the road today, and in more than ten minutes the two of them arrived near the Antique City. Liu Yiyang got out of the car, and Liu Wei waved his hand gently and rode his bike away.
Liu Yiyang came to the door of the antique shop himself and looked up at the plaque at the door of the shop.
"Xuan Yazhai" is the name of this store, with a large plaque on it. It is said that the three large characters on the plaque were mentioned by the famous artist Hu Zhengde and Mr. Hu. Mr. Hu is one of the top calligraphy masters in China, and it is not easy to get his inscriptions by himself.
"Xiao Liu, why don't you go in when you come?"
A middle-aged man walked out of the gate. Seeing Liu Yiyang stunned for a moment, he quickly smiled and said hello.
"Uncle Lin, I'll go in right away!"
Uncle Lin’s name is Lin Liang. He is in his fifties. He is the manager of the store and the person the boss trusts the most. He is dealing with all the big and small things in the store. He also recruited Liu Yiyang into the store and provided him with this stable and secure job.
In the store, several young salesmen greeted Liu Yiyang with a smile. After greeting everyone, he went to the second floor.
His job is to maintain and clean antiques. The second floor is large. There is a VIP reception room and office outside. There is a corner inside and an iron safe door there. After entering, there is a warehouse and a cottage, which is where he works every day.
The things to be maintained today have been placed in the cottage by Xiaolin, who is on duty in the warehouse. After Liu Yiyang came in, he opened the cottage and let Liu Yiyang go in alone.
Xiaolin is Lin Liang's son Lin Feng. She is a person who doesn't like to talk much, but she is very serious in her work and keeps the warehouse the most at ease.
A cottage, small table, maintenance tools and antiques from various periods are Liu Yiyang's usual job.
Taking a deep breath and leaving everything yesterday behind, Liu Yiyang picked up a bronze flower vase and prepared to start today's work.
It is impossible to escape whether it is a blessing or a disaster. Liu Yiyang is no longer thinking about these uncontrollable things. More than a day has made him think thoroughly that no matter what happened yesterday, it is a future thing. Since he can't control these things, it is better to grasp the present.
My younger brother is still waiting for him to send his living expenses, and his family also needs his subsidies. He needs to do this job well.
The bronze vase is not small, more than 30 centimeters long. Liu Yiyang still remembers this bronze ware and has been maintained once, which means that this thing has been in the warehouse for at least three months, and the bronze ware is maintained once every three months.
Not every antique shop can be sold quickly. Before selling it, everything must be maintained regularly to maintain the best appearance so that customers can better show it when they come to buy it.
Liu Yiyang remembers that this is a Warring States bronze flower vase, which has a history of more than two thousand years. If it weren't for the small flaws, it would have been sold long ago, and it was definitely not a low price.
Restrained his mind, Liu Yiyang put on his gloves and started his work today.
Holding the bronze flower vase in one hand and the brush in the other, Liu Yiyang's expression slowly became focused.
Whether it is work or study, Liu Yiyang can quickly get into the state and abandon all distracting thoughts. This is the biggest reason why he can get into this key university in an ordinary high school. At this time, he is no longer thinking about anything, and he only has this bronze flower vase to be maintained in his mind.
The tiny brush gently wiped the bronze green body of the bronze vase, and the dust splashed on it quickly disappeared. The body of the bronze green vase brought out a simple feeling, but it also gave people a sense of beauty.
"This, what is this?"
Liu Yiyang's right hand, which was wiping the bronze vase, suddenly trembled, screaming in vain, and the vase almost fell off his hand.
The flower vase lying in his hand was constantly oozing purple ripples from his copper-green body. The ripples looked like ethereal mist and like a rainbow-like ribbon.
After the mist drifted out, it flew straight towards Liu Yiyang's forehead, and finally all of it got into his seal hall.
Faced with this strange scene, it was not easy for Liu Yiyang to hold the flower vase and not let it fall off.
"Yi Yang, what's wrong with you?"
Lin Feng walked in outside and looked at Liu Yiyang in confusion.
Lin Feng is 23 years older than Liu Yiyang because he guards the warehouse and doesn't talk much to many people in the front store. The whole store has the most dealings with Liu Yiyang.
In his impression, Liu Yiyang is a very steady and real young man, and one of the few people he recognizes.
Liu Yiyang raised his head, and the doubts in Lin Feng's eyes became even more intense. Liu Yiyang usually works very hard and is very real. Like today, it is never before that when he is working, he screams loudly and sits there in a daze.
"You, have you seen something purple, purple?"
Lifting his head, Liu Yiyang said in a little panic, and even raised his hand to let Lin Feng notice the flower vase in his hand.
Lin Feng lowered his head and looked at the bronze flower vase carefully for a few seconds. His face was confused and said, "How can there be any purple thing? Yi Yang, what are you talking about?"
"You didn't see it!" Liu Yiyang's eyes widened a little longer.
"No!"
Lin Feng shook his head again, and the doubts in his eyes became even more intense. If it weren't for Liu Yiyang's working hours here, he would have suspected that the person in front of him was still the same Liu Yiyang as usual.
"It's okay, that's because I'm wrong. Sorry, Brother Feng, maybe I was tired yesterday and I was not in good spirits today!"
Seeing that Lin Feng was looking at him, Liu Yiyang waved his hand and explained.
While he was talking, he looked down at the bronze flower vase on his hand. There was very little purple mist coming out of the flower vase, but the entire outer periphery of the flower vase was wrapped with such a layer of purple, which could only be seen but could not be touched.
"If you are too tired, take a day off today. I'll go and tell you!"
Lin Feng said without doubt and agreed. He just saw that Liu Yiyang was in a bad state when he came in, and the explanation was more appropriate.
"No, it's okay, I'll just take a break. I'll add a little time today and I will definitely do it!"
"Okay, but remember not to force me. I'll go out first and call me if I have something to do!"
After Lin Feng said that, he turned around directly, and a hint of gratitude appeared in Liu Yiyang's eyes.
Lin Feng knew him, and he also had a certain understanding of Lin Feng. He knew that he was usually very introverted and taciturn. It was not easy to be able to say so much to him, let alone say things to him.
After Lin Feng went out, he brought the small door with him.
There is air conditioning in the room. Liu Yiyang cannot sweat when working. Too much sweat is not good for the maintenance of antiques. Liu Wei has been here once and is very envious of Liu Yiyang's working environment.
Their school dormitories do not have air conditioning, and the individual air-conditioned rooms are definitely a luxury for them.
After Lin Feng went out, Liu Yiyang lowered his head and looked at the bronze flower vase in his hand carefully. He was still shocked.
The purple mist suddenly appeared, and the purple color surrounding the flower vase was now. If it weren't for the strange experience yesterday, he would have been so scared that he would have run out.
At this moment, there was no purple mist in the flower vase, only the light purple surrounding, as if telling Liu Yiyang about his existence.
After touching his forehead, Liu Yiyang recalled carefully. When the purple mist crawled in from here just now, his forehead seemed to be a little hot, but his mind was completely shocked at that time and he didn't pay much attention to these things.
After watching for several minutes, Liu Yiyang put down the bronze flower vase.
He believed that Lin Feng would never lie about such things. Since Lin Feng could not see it, it means that only he could see these purple colors.
