Chapter 0103 – Jade in the Stone (II)
“Xiao Rui, what are you doing upstairs! Little brat, want to revolt ah!”
Outside the window came the shouts of Wang Auntie downstairs, they all live in a building for more than ten years, as the saying goes, a distant relative is not as good as a close neighbor, and they all watched Zhuang Rui grow up, so there is nothing to be concerned about when talking.
“White lion, come out, stop playing.”
Zhuang Rui shouted at the bottom of the bed, the little white lion heard Zhuang Rui’s voice, immediately and excitedly drilled out from under the bed, but the two front paws are still pushing a round stone, the stone and the floor collided, issued a “rumble, rumble” sound.
Zhuang Rui estimated that the sound Wang Aunt heard, is the sound of the stone rolling, live in the building friends know, in the upstairs may be a small sound, to the downstairs when, is very loud.
“Don’t play with this, turn around and I’ll give you a bath.”
Zhuang Rui snatched down the stone, opened the window by hand, and shouted downstairs, “Auntie Wang. I’m sorry ah! The little guy is naughty, turn around and I’ll teach it a lesson, it’s been a long time since I’ve eaten your wrapped dumplings, hurry up tomorrow I’ll go to your house to mix and eat ah! Oh.”
Auntie Wang knew that Zhuang Min’s family had moved over, and thought that the little girl was being naughty, and quickly said, “Don’t …… don’t ah! Xiao Rui, small children naughty talk on the line, tomorrow I will pack dumplings, you come down to eat it!”
Zhuang Rui also did not explain, promised to close the window, holding that black stone in his hand, which is already full of dust, Zhuang Rui put the stone on the ground, ready to go wash his hands.
Just turned around, the little white lion played on again, Zhuang Rui hastily snatched the stone again, placed on the table above, he vaguely remembered that these few broken stones, or from the grandfather left the box inside the rummage, as if there are four or five, were thrown under the bed to go, in order to prevent this little guy to make trouble, Zhuang Rui ambush body, ready to find out those few stones. Tomorrow together to throw away.
It was dark under the bed, but when the aura in Zhuang Rui’s eyes was released, it immediately turned bright.
“Huh? What the hell is this? Shit, it hurts me.”
After Zhuang Rui used his aura, he suddenly realized that there were two places under the bed, emitting an eerie green light outwards, at first glance it looked like a wolf’s eyes, scaring Zhuang Rui, when he raised his head in a panic, he touched on the bed boards, the painful Zhuang Rui bared his teeth and crawled out from under the bed, the little white lion immediately pounced up and intimately licked Zhuang Rui’s face with his tongue.
It should not be the little thing messed up, Zhuang Rui remembers very clearly, the place that emitted the two green rays of light, separated by a distance of nearly one meter, it can not be the two eyes of the little white lion, rubbing the head that was hit by the pain, Zhuang Rui pushed away the little white lion, to the outside room to find out a flashlight to.
“Strange thing ah! Other than these few broken rocks, there’s nothing!”
Zhuang Rui held the flashlight for half a day and found that besides the few stones he had thrown in a few days ago, under the bed was empty, nothing else.
“Xiao Rui, what are you pouting for? There’s still some treasure under the bed isn’t there, this kid, come out, look at how dirty you are.”
Zhuang Rui was about to take out a few stones first when Zhuang mother came back, after hearing the movement in his room, she pushed open the door and walked in, just in time to see Zhuang Rui trying to crawl under the bed again.
“Mom, you’re back! I’m fine, there are a few stones under the bed, this little thing is always pushing and rolling, downstairs Auntie Wang has an opinion.”
Zhuang Rui returned to his mom, with a flashlight, the remaining four stones under the bed, all of them were taken out and placed on top of the table.
“You child, nothing to throw what stone under the bed ah! Throw them all away tomorrow, and later take off your clothes and throw them inside the washing machine.”
Zhuang Rui did not dare to answer back, although the mother did not Liu mother so nagging, but when the teacher’s training up people, is also a set of set, sure enough. See Zhuang Rui did not talk back, Zhuang mother also went out.
See mom out, Zhuang Rui and back to the ground, once again released the aura to the bed to see, this time, but did not see the two green light, stood up, looked at the table side by side with five fist-sized stones, Zhuang Rui heart some suspicion, is it that the light is still these stones to send out?
In the end, whether it is or not, take a look to know, Zhuang Rui also lazy to think about it, raised his eyes to those stones.
“No, it’s not, hehe, what is this?”
After looking at two stones in a row, the inside was an ordinary stone structure, but just as Zhuang Rui saw the third stone, a touch of green color, through the spread of aura, was clearly reflected into Zhuang Rui’s eyes.
At that moment, Zhuang Rui came in the spirit, not caring that the stone was full of dust, and cupped it with both hands in front of his eyes, and did not use his aura. Rather, he first looked carefully at its appearance.
This piece of stone into the hand some heavy, afraid of so dinky have two or three pounds of weight, the stone surface black, in the hand cold cold cold, and the surface is very uneven, there are many very small patterns on it, there are some black ringworms, fierce look, as if by earthworms crawling through the general, appear some grooves and channels, very ugly.
“Could it be that there is jade in here? But jade is all white!”
Zhuang Rui’s understanding of jade in his brain. It was only stuck on sheep’s fat white jade, but he didn’t realize at the moment that in this world, there was another kind of gemstone called emerald, and its value wasn’t below that of beautiful jade.
Slowly seeping his aura into the stone, the surface of the stone was about three or four centimeters, all the same as what he had just seen, but when Zhuang Rui looked further into the depths, a touch of moving green color, suddenly came into his eyes.
Zhuang Rui has never seen such a pure color, in the middle of the stone, a sufficiently large part of the egg heart size, flashing green light, and extremely uniform distribution, in this light, Zhuang Rui felt the presence of an aura, just and antiques in the aura is a little different, in the antiques Zhuang Rui felt the aura, heavy and solid, and now feel this aura, but is ethereal Lightness of spirit, the color is also exactly what he saw green.
Tried to absorb a little, Zhuang Rui found that this share of aura although and antiques in the different, but also can not be fused with their own eyes of the aura, so Zhuang Rui is considered to be dead heart, it seems that the future is not a way to absorb the aura from the object inside.
This thing will not be emerald, right? Zhuang Rui afterthought, in the eyes back, only after the brain burst out of such a word, this is not to blame Zhuang Rui, although he is working in the pawnshop, but he is doing the financial work, generally very little contact with those jewelry and luxury goods and things like that, emerald, he naturally heard of, but also seen with their own eyes, but he does not know, emerald is actually from this looks extremely inconspicuous stone output.
Not just Zhuang Rui. Most people in the world, can not tell the difference between jadeite and jade, that is, you look at the official, the brain is estimated to be only a vague concept, let alone to distinguish what the original stone, ice, emerald, is to put an old pit full of pine flowers python with the original stone in front of you, I’m afraid it will be treated as a garbage stone to be thrown away.
Zhuang Rui know good emerald is very expensive, but his impression is more, are stalls or stores selling those jadeite pendants, ten twenty to a dollar, right now this stone in the emerald, Zhuang Rui is also a little uncertain, after all, he has never used his eyes to see the emerald, and do not know the emerald contained in the aura, is more or less, but just now that the moving green, so that Zhuang Rui subconsciously feel that Own this piece of stone in the emerald, should be a valuable thing.
And this stone, is also exactly the one that the little white lion just rolled and played with, Zhuang Rui somewhat strangely looked at the little guy climbing beside himself, “Could it be that this little guy, can also see things inside?”
Shook his head, Zhuang Rui put his own this ridiculous idea out of his mind, and picked up the other two stones to, after observing some, found that in one of the stones, there is also a little green, that is, the existence of emerald, but compared to just now that the egg shaped emerald, but is a far cry, and even only the size of a small fingernail, and the color is not pure.
“Grandpa how can have these things?”
Zhuang Rui some puzzled, can not say that he is poor knowledge, 03 years, the network is not particularly developed, even if it is a senior netizen Zhuang Rui, also do not know the origin of the emerald, it is his grandfather had done geological investigation of Burma and other places.
“Mom, grandpa used to keep those stones, do you know where they came from?”
The puzzled Zhuang Rui, walked out of the room and asked his mother who was watching TV.
“Oh, if you don’t say it I’ve forgotten, I seem to have heard your father say that those stones were brought back from Burma by your grandfather back then, your grandfather did geological work all his life, it should have been for research purposes! Right, since it’s something your grandfather left behind, don’t throw it away, put it back in the box, and don’t let this little guy roll around.”
The little white lion obviously understands very well, who is the boss in this family, after following Zhuang Rui out of the room, he intimately rubbed his big head against Zhuang mother, his demeanor is quite naive and cute.
“How do I take this thing out?”
Get the answer Zhuang Rui, walk back to the room, and then began to have a headache, this whole is wrapped up by the stone, want to single to the center of the piece to be intact out, is not so easy.
“Mom, I’ll go buy a pack of cigarettes, I’ll be back in a while.”
Zhuang Rui thought for a moment, ran to the room where the miscellaneous things were put, found a hammer, put it inside the jacket, holding the stone with the least green color, opened the door and walked out.
“This child, how now the addiction to cigarettes is getting bigger and bigger, Xiao Rui, smoke less.” Behind her came Zhuang mother’s voice.
Waved his hand back, Zhuang Rui three steps and two steps ran down the stairs, the weather in March is still a little cold, it’s only nine o’clock, there are basically no people outside the neighborhood, Zhuang Rui came to the stone table and chairs where the old men and women usually play mahjong.
Looking around, Zhuang Rui put the stone in his hand, stuffed into a gap between two slabs, and then raised the hammer in his hand, ruthlessly smashed down.
