Omnipotent Overlord

Chapter 21: A road runs into darkness

Views:

An Yuxin always felt that her eyes were beautiful, big and black, with long eyelashes. Except for Lin Qingrou, she had never seen eyes that were prettier than hers in Century Middle School.

It's strange, why did Li Mo's eyes become prettier than Lin Qingrou's? He didn't seem like this before...

An Yuxin stared blankly for more than five minutes before she came back to her senses under Li Mo's wave.

An Yuxin's face was slightly red. She had never stared at a boy for a long time like today.

"Next time if you have something to do, please ask for leave first. You know my phone number. Don't do this again..."

"I am leaving."

When An Yuxin started talking, she could still look directly into Li Mo's eyes. As she spoke, she could only look away in panic. She couldn't look anymore, otherwise she would be trapped in it.

An Yuxin walked away without looking back.

Li Mo smiled. Although he did not use the power of the Heavenly Eye when he looked at An Yuxin, the power of the Heavenly Eye alone was not something that An Yuxin, an ordinary human girl, could withstand.

Well, I feel dizzy, so dizzy...

Li Mo closed his eyes and held the door with one hand.

After all, it is a low-end version of the 'Sky Eye'. If you use it excessively, it will definitely have side effects.

It seems that I need to pay more attention next time and not use perspective casually...

Li Mo closed his eyes and rested for more than two minutes before his dizziness gradually subsided. After more than another minute, his body returned to normal.

"A hundred-year-old polygonum multiflorum must be combined with a thousand-year cold chalcedony to refine blood. It seems that I must go to the rare treasure auction."

Li Mo found the newspaper and read it carefully, only to realize that not everyone could go to this auction of rare treasures, and tickets could not be bought casually. They had to have a certain social status.

Li Mo thought for a moment, his eyes lit up, and he thought of someone.

Huang Lixing.

Even though Teacher Huang's ability to appraise treasures is not worth mentioning, he can still be called a "highly respected" socialite.

Huang Lixing's earliest major was not archeology, but music. To be honest, Huang Lixing's musical attainments are many times better than archeology, especially his piano skills, which have won awards internationally.

Originally, with Teacher Huang's musical attainments, it was more than enough to teach at Tsingta University and Nanjing University. Unfortunately, I don't know why Teacher Huang went crazy. He refused the invitations from Tsingta University and Nanjing University and returned to his hometown in Fengcheng City. Entered Century Middle School and became an archeology teacher.

In the first few years, there were countless international and domestic celebrities who came to visit Teacher Huang. However, Teacher Huang was determined to play archeology. From the day he joined Century Middle School, he had never touched music.

As time went by, the celebrities who came here with admiration gradually disappeared, and after more than four years of hard work, Teacher Huang successfully transformed from a genius in the music industry into a funny figure in the archaeological industry.

Teacher Huang’s fame now is far less than before, but he is still famous and many people still know him.

"Xiao Mo, do you want to go to that rare treasure auction? What a great idea. To be honest with you, teacher, I have also seen the news and am about to go, but... just... Well, the tickets are a bit expensive. Wait for me to think of a solution.”

It's not expensive anymore. A ticket costs 33,000 yuan. Teacher Huang's salary is not much. Plus he is obsessed with archeology. As long as he goes to the antique market, he will definitely bring back one or two 'treasures', good and bad. He is not short of antiques, but he is really short of money.

"I can get the tickets. I recently sold an antique and made a lot of money." Li Mo explained.

"You sold an antique? What kind of antique was it?" When Huang Lixing heard about the antique, he immediately became energetic. At this moment, he didn't care about tickets, this or that.

"Well, it's an original rubbing by Tang Bohu, "The Picture of a Roaring Tiger in the Mountains."

"Ah? You said it's an authentic rubbing? Who made the rubbings?"

"An unknown painter."

"How much did you sell?"

"Ten...one hundred thousand."

"You... why didn't you tell the teacher about this? You lost money on the sale! The picture of Tiger Roaring Mountain Residence is as good as Phoenix Ao Intention. Even if it is just a rubbing, its value is far more than 100,000. It’s worth at least one hundred and fifty thousand…”

Huang Lixing talked endlessly, talking incessantly, and Li Mo felt more and more blushing as he listened. You must know that in his previous life, he hung out with Teacher Huang almost all day long, and he had no doubts about Teacher Huang's ability to identify treasures.

"It's a pity, it's a pity. In this case, you pay for the tickets, and when the time comes, my teacher will lead you to taste the rare treasures, and it will be a blockbuster!"

After finally waiting for Teacher Huang to hang up the phone, Li Mo let out a sigh of relief.

Fengcheng City, Queen Hotel.

Qin Zhen was wearing a Tang suit, sitting in the VIP room of Supreme No. 1 with a straight face, listening to his granddaughter Qin Menglu's narration.

Chen Zhengzhong stood in front of Qin Zhen with his head lowered, not daring to take a breath.

Who is Qin Zhen? That is the cornerstone of the Qin Group, the head of the Qin Group. As long as he says a word, he, the general manager, will have to pack up and get out.

"snort!"

"snort!"

After hearing Qin Menglu's account of what happened that day, Qin Zhen was angry and slapped the table. He slapped the table, and Chen Zhengzhong trembled in fright.

"It's nonsense, it's just nonsense. Facing a peerless expert, you don't even have the slightest respect, huh!"

Qin Menglu bit her lip, looking aggrieved.

In fact, even now, Qin Menglu doesn't think Li Mo is so great. Grandpa's illness is an old injury. Even famous foreign doctors said that grandpa's illness can no longer be cured by medicine. How can he be an expert even if he is not even 10 years old

Still an expert, Qin Menglu couldn't help but sigh when she thought of Li Mo's naked appearance when she first saw him in Shanquan.

"Grandpa, I have already found out the name and address of that little...little master. I was planning to go find him tomorrow. Why did you come here in person?"

"Your attitude is bad. You don't need to go tomorrow. I will go myself."

"Ah?" Qin Menglu looked at her grandfather in surprise.

In Qin Menglu's memory, Qin Zhen had not seen guests in person for at least two years. No matter who it was, even the head of the Su family, who personally brought generous gifts, could not see Qin Zhen.

Qin Zhen glanced at Chen Zhengzhong and said, "You will go with me tomorrow."

"Yes... yes." Chen Zhengzhong nodded repeatedly.

"You go down first." Qin Zhen waved his hand.

After Chen Zhengzhong left, Qin Zhen coughed violently, and Qin Menglu hurriedly ran over and patted him on the back.

After a long while, Qin Zhen stopped coughing, waved his hand, and gasped: "It's better to treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor. Girl, I see him in person this time, not for medical treatment."

"Then what are you looking at?"

"Look at your fate!"
