This woodcarving shop has a very strange taste.
It's the smell of the evil spirit of the fierce ghost or the strange beast.
According to the common sense, no matter they are fierce ghosts or strange animals, they will not appear in this kind of trouble. Once the fierce ghosts and beasts appear, they will cause panic in the crowd. At the same time, the place where human beings live is too angry, which is not conducive to the generation of fierce ghosts and exotic animals.
But Zhou Heng's feeling can't be wrong. He can smell the faint smell. Although he can't tell whether it's a fierce ghost or a strange animal, Zhou Heng can be sure that the source of the smell is in this shop.
His eyes swept over the woodcarving in the shop.
At this time, the store manager was chatting with Meilin and Yang Zihuan enthusiastically. Zhou Heng didn't seem to be interested in their chat, so they didn't get Zhou Heng into their topic.
The number of woodcarvings in the shop is very large, and the patterns are complicated. The smaller crickets and magpies are lifelike in thumb size. The larger ones also have rockeries and rocks, which are elegant in the living room.
"Boss Zhou, did you carve all these?" Zhou Heng couldn't help asking.
"Then I don't have time to make so many wood carvings." Boss Zhou said with a smile, "most of them are bought from some wood carvers, and some of them are treasures picked up from the market, but these relics are in the minority. However, although there are many in my shop, they are all treasures gradually. "
Zhou Heng nodded. Although he didn't understand wood carving, the charm of wood carving was that people who didn't understand it could feel some of it.
Boss Zhou can collect so many exquisite works from all over the world. I'm afraid that in addition to his excellent business operation means, he has a great interest in wood carving.
Zhou Heng's eyes moved on the exquisite wood carvings. He had forgotten his purpose of finding the source of the evil spirit. The artistry of these wood carvings naturally infected him and made him feel the interest.
But when he saw a small wood carving, Zhou Heng's eyes suddenly stopped.
The size of the wood carving is just the size of a slap, but the content of the carving is a real person and a woman. The woman carved out of wood was still covered with fine gauze. With Zhou Heng's vision, he put his head a little closer, and then he saw that the gauze was also carved out of wood, but later the coloring was very fine.
Of course, in addition to the fine workmanship, you can also feel a little evil spirit from this wood carving. The unusual smell Zhou Heng smelled when he walked into the store came from this gadget.
"Brother Zhou has good eyesight." over there, boss Zhou suddenly praised Zhou Heng's eyesight. "I just got this' xizixiang 'recently. It belongs to the top class!"
"Xizixiang?" Zhou Heng was stunned.
"Xizixiang is the name I chose for her," said boss Zhou with a smile. "Don't you think this woman's appearance is Xizi who is always suitable for heavy makeup?"
After listening to the boss's introduction, Zhou Heng looked at the woodcarving and found that the woman's face was really beautiful. Although the whole head was only the size of a nail cap, even so, the woman's eyebrows and eyes were still very clear. Even in her face, there were some sad looks.
"But it's a pity. It's a pity that the workmanship of this woodcarving is excellent." Boss Zhou said again.
"Is there anything else wrong with this woodcarving?" Zhou Heng asked.
"The expression of this woodcarving is too sad," said boss Zhou with a sigh. "Woodcarving is for people to play with after all. If you can be sad but not sad, this kind of work can be called the best, and such a work with too much sadness and too much emotional exposure can only be called the best, which is still a step away from the best."
Zhou Heng nodded his head.
In fact, he doesn't care about the expression of the woodcarving, what he cares about is that the woodcarving is stained with the evil spirit. Looking only at the appearance of the wood carving, it is no different from the general wood carving except for its delicacy. However, it is the evil spirit that gives the wood carving a unique place.
I bought it and took it back to study it slowly. Zhou Heng thought at this time.
Although I don't know how much a woodcarving costs, I don't think there will be too much. Zhou Heng should be able to afford it. Thinking of this, Zhou Heng reached out to the woodcarving.
At this time, another slender hand stretched out directly, and snatched away the woodcarving before Zhou Heng.
"Oh, it's quite similar." The one who took away the woodcarving was a girl who looked only 16 or 17 years old, with a very obvious southern accent. "Uncle Mei, can we buy it too?"
The girl was followed by an old man with white hair and white beard. Although the old man looked very old, he stood upright.
"Yes, miss." The old man's speech is the most standard Mandarin.
Just when the girl wanted to give the woodcarving to the old man, Zhou Heng suddenly opened his mouth.
"I'm sorry, miss. I saw this woodcarving first." Zhou Heng said with a smile.
"What do you like?" The girl widened her eyes and looked at Zhou Heng, "did you buy it?"Zhou Heng shook his head: "not yet."
"Since you haven't bought it, why can't I buy it?" The girl smiles at Zhou Heng, "don't be hesitant when a big man buys something. If you choose it, just do it."
Zhou Heng was stunned and stopped the girl who was going to walk by him: "you can't buy this." Although there is not much yin evil spirit in the wood carving, it will always have an impact if it is carried around for a long time. What's more, the other party is still a young girl, and his resistance to Yin evil spirit is always smaller. So Zhou Heng stopped the other party for his own good.
The girl frowned impatiently.
The old man behind her also came forward, politely but slightly dignified, and said, "this gentleman, please get out of the way."
Seeing this kind of scene, boss Zhou and Yang Zihuan and others certainly can't sit back and ignore it. They immediately catch up with each other. Only Meilin, who is still in the same place, looks at this side with his mouth covered and Snickers.
"Two, two, two, don't fight." Boss Zhou was the first one to come up and make a comeback. "It's just a small thing. We are all distinguished guests. There's no need to hurt our friendship for such a small thing."
Then he looked at the girl. He thought that the girl was young and thin skinned. She should be more talkative. So he said, "to be honest, miss, the woodcarving you like really doesn't deserve you."
Girl eyebrow pick, also noncommittal.
"Although the carving of this xizixiang is exquisite, it's too sad. The young lady was just in her youth. Such a sad work is not suitable for the young lady's age --"
before boss Zhou finished, the girl suddenly cut off his words: "you think I'm young, don't you?"
"I'll tell you today!" The girl furiously forked, "this wood carving, I have to buy it!"
