Chapter 62: The Sensational Intermediary Law Instrument

  Li Ruoxi's beautiful eyes sparkled with intense colors, she never dreamed that Wang Ke would become a Feng Shui master with magical abilities, and could even see the aura.

  When they were rebuilding their ancestral home, her grandfather had invited a Feng Shui master to take a look at the land's Feng Shui. Her usually majestic grandfather was almost reverent in front of the Feng Shui master, nearly treating him like a living ancestor.

  It was also from then on that she knew of the existence of Feng Shui masters and had an understanding of their abilities.

  Her sexy red lips moved a few times, Li Ruoxi looked at Wang Ke who was scanning around, one hand gently pulled Wang Ke's sleeve, her slender body leaned closer to Wang Ke and asked in a low voice: "You really became a Feng Shui master? Do you understand Feng Shui?"

  Wang Ke smiled and said: "I don't understand Feng Shui, but I'm currently following the senior who lives in Zixing to learn. I believe that as long as I work hard, I will be able to learn the real skills in the future."

  Li Ruoxi spent a good few minutes before the stunning face finally revealed a bitter smile, sighing: "I didn't expect that I was just looking for a bodyguard and ended up picking up a treasure, a Feng Shui master! That's an existence high above us ordinary people, almost requiring us to look up to. Wang Ke, I suddenly have this feeling."

  "What feeling?" Wang Ke asked in confusion.

  Li Ruoxi smiled and said: "I think I also successfully picked up a bargain this time, and what I picked up is priceless."

  Wang Ke pointed to his own nose and asked, "Are you referring to me?"

  Li Ruoxi nodded heavily: "It's you."

  Wang Ke was taken aback and lost his smile, then immediately cast his eyes again on the various shapes and wooden furniture around him.

  Within a radius of ten meters, there were not many wooden furniture pieces, adding up to only about a dozen or so. After hesitating for a moment, Wang Ke's heart felt somewhat uncertain, wondering if he could still use his ability eye after having used it before.

  Controlling the true energy to slowly flow into his eyes, suddenly, a pain more intense than the usual eye-stinging sensation when using his heterochromatic eyes came, causing him to shut his eyes instantly.

  A moment later, when the cool feeling that followed replaced the stinging sensation, he quickly opened his eyes and his gaze fell on a dozen or so pieces of furniture around him.

  Chair?

  Wang Ke's heart skipped a beat, because when his line of sight swept over one of the chairs, he suddenly discovered that there was a stream of white gas flowing on the chair, and this white gas was more than three times the amount of white gas he usually saw on the surface of the artifact with his heterochromatic eyes.

  The chair in front of him, Wang Ke couldn't identify its material, but the pattern carved on the chair surprisingly had the "Fu Shou Shuang Quan" feng shui pattern, which made his face reveal a look of surprise. After all, he had picked up several magical instruments, and even in Zhao Menfeng's Zixing Residence, he had seen several magical instruments, but he had never encountered any that were carved with feng shui patterns.

  The "Fu Shou Shuang Quan" Feng Shui carved on top, if he didn't already know it was a magical instrument, would absolutely be invisible, unless all his attention is focused on it, repeatedly studying it over and over again, only then can the discovery be made based on the carving patterns.

  Wang Ke understood that if it weren't for the heterochromatic eyes, after confirming this was a magical artifact, he absolutely wouldn't have carefully examined the patterns on the chair. After all, from its appearance, this was just an old broken chair.

  "The Double Happiness" Feng Shui pattern is used as a decorative motif because it has profound implications:

  Good fortune and longevity are auspicious words used more in folk applications. Therefore, the bat symbolizing good fortune and the peach symbolizing longevity are often used together to form an auspicious pattern. For example, "Fú Shòu Shuāng Quán" (good fortune and longevity both complete), which is a bat, two peaches, and two ancient coins. The term "Shuāng Quán" (both complete) is used because of the homophony with the two ancient coins. This is a metaphor for being both happy and long-lived.

  A bat carries a branch of sacred peach in its mouth, accompanied by auspicious clouds flying over.

  The pattern uses homophony and symbolism to represent happiness and longevity arriving, namely good fortune from heaven.

  Just now, through the observation of the heterochromatic eye, Wang Ke discovered that the white gas, following the pattern of "Fu Shou Shuang Quan" carving, formed an internal Fengshui array pattern, slowly flowing and circulating.

  Quickly suppressing the wild joy in his heart, Wang Ke cut off his true energy. When his vision recovered and the piercing pain disappeared again, Wang Ke walked up to that ordinary-looking chair that couldn't be any more ordinary, with a slight damage.

  "Is this also a magic tool?"

  Li Ruoxi followed Wang Ke to the chair, her observation was very keen, and she naturally saw that when Wang Ke looked at the chair, his eyes were a little different.

  Wang Ke quickly turned his head to look around, finding that there was no one else within twenty meters, before saying in a low voice: "Don't speak, I think it's the real deal! Wait and see, I'll buy it and resell it, then we'll know if this chair is truly an authentic artifact or not."

  Li Ruoxi looked at Wang Ke deeply, although she heard Wang Ke say it was just a feeling, but as a girl, her heart was as delicate as silk, and she could still sense through the sixth sense that Wang Ke should be confident, as for why he had such confidence, she didn't know.

  Wang Ke didn't have the ability to read minds, so he naturally didn't know what Li Ruoxi was thinking. He turned around and waved his hand at a henchman who occasionally glanced over at their location from afar. In an instant, the henchman hastily rushed over.

  "Excuse me, sir, is there anything I can help you with?"

  Wang Ke smiled and said, "I quite like this chair. If I buy it back for the elderly at home to sit on, the shape should be pretty good. Give me a realistic price, don't make us think you're too fake."

  That fellow's expression changed, as soon as Wang Ke finished speaking, he glanced at Li Ruoxi without leaving any trace, hesitated for a moment, then stretched out a hand and gritted his teeth: "Five hundred yuan, if you want to buy it, five hundred yuan is the lowest price."

  In front of the beauty, he naturally didn't want to let a false reputation fall on his own head, so based on the lowest price set by the old boss at that time, he gritted his teeth and said.

  Wang Ke secretly smiled to himself, he just wanted to use Li Ruoxi's beauty to bring some trouble to this young fellow, after all, who would want to lose face in front of a beautiful woman?

  500 yuan!

  It's too cheap, he thought this antique chair would cost at least 2,000 yuan.

  "Not bad, you're a straightforward brother. We're all easy-going people, I won't quibble with you either. You said 500 yuan, so it's 500 yuan! Here, this is 500 yuan, take it." Wang Ke quickly pulled out his wallet from his body, took out five 100-yuan bills and handed them to the fellow.

  He was praised by Wang Ke for two sentences, and the fellow was naturally very satisfied. He glanced at Li Ruoxi again and found that Li Ruoxi's mouth was curved into a smile, and he felt a surge of excitement in his heart.

  "Our store has been operating here for many years, adhering to the principle of quality first and service second. We absolutely do not cheat children or adults. Do you want to take a look at other items? I have time now and can take you around." The shop assistant said with a smile.

  Got it! Here is the translation:

  "Treasure in hand, who's still wandering around here?"

  Wang Ke smiled secretly in his heart, and a hint of regret appeared on his face. He shook his head and said, "I'm afraid that won't work, because we have some other things to attend to later and can't stay here for too long. Besides, I just bought this chair and need to take it back to my elders at home. Still, thank you for your kind intentions, brother. If we have time in the future, we'll come visit your store often."

  Listening to Wang Ke's guarantee, the disappointment in the eyes of that fellow quickly disappeared, and he nodded heavily, smiling: "In the future, when you come here, just find me directly. As long as it's something you're interested in, I'll definitely sell it to you at a fair price."

  Wang Ke smiled and nodded, carrying a chair and leaving with Li Ruoxi together.

  After leaving the store, Li Ruoxi turned around and curiously asked, "It's that easy to buy it? Isn't it too easy?"

  Wang Ke smiled and said, "Or do you think otherwise? To say that today I was able to buy this chair for only 500 yuan, it's all thanks to your presence, Li Ruoxi. Did you notice that the shop assistant saw you and his eyes almost popped out of their sockets? And I deliberately said in front of him that we didn't want to think he was fake, so that kid wanted to give you a good impression, where would he dare to quote a fake price? I even suspect that the boss of that store originally set the lowest price for this chair at 500 yuan."

  Li Ruoxi smiled bitterly and shook her head, feeling somewhat impressed by Wang Ke's grasp of people's hearts.

  "Where shall we go next?" Li Ruoxi asked with a smile.

  Wang Ke thought for a moment, and then a figure appeared in his mind - that of Bai Ruo Chen. He suddenly smiled and said, "Go sell this magical chair."

  "Where is it sold?"

  Li Ruoxi asked curiously.

  "Follow me and you'll see!"

  Because he was carrying a chair, many people passing by Wang Ke and Li Ruoxi looked at them with surprise. On the one hand, it was because Li Ruoxi was really too beautiful, and on the other hand, it was because of the chair that Wang Ke was carrying. Many people showed curious expressions, wondering why Wang Ke bought an old broken chair.

  Some people even secretly wondered if that broken chair was a genuine antique.

  "Hurry up! Don't you see that everyone around us is going crazy? Quickly go and find it, we must find that middle-grade artifact. If we do, we'll get rich!"

  "What a mid-tier artifact, several prestigious Feng Shui masters even think that it's not a mid-tier artifact, but a high-tier artifact. High-tier artifact! The lowest price would be over one million at least? Maybe there's even a chance to reach tens of millions in price. Must act quickly, absolutely cannot let others find it first."

  "What a windfall opportunity from the heavens! An opportunity that cannot be missed, for if we can find that high-grade artifact, we'll at least be able to reduce our struggles by several decades!"

  "We must find it, even if we have to sell our pots and pans, we must buy that high-quality artifact. I'm telling you, brother, don't drag your feet, or else this great opportunity to get rich will be snatched away by someone else."

  "Hey, don't push me! I haven't seen that stall over there yet! Maybe the high-quality artifact is on that stall!"

  "Hurry up and go take a look at that antique shop next door..."

  “……”

  Standing in the crowd, Wang Ke and Li Ruoxi stared at each other, having just come out of the antique shop. Because they were still engrossed in their conversation, they hadn't noticed their surroundings yet. But now, both of them were almost dumbfounded.
