Daughter-in-law

Chapter 999 The Power of Gluttony
Hearing my words, Xu Yang nodded, gratefully took out his phone and started contacting the museum.

I walked to the door of the detention center, lit a cigarette and took a puff.

"Big ears, did you find something?" Duanmuqing saw my appearance, walked up to me and asked me a little strangely.

I nodded, and then said: "The aura of those five people is a bit weird, long-lasting, and very powerful."

When checking those five, I felt a special breath, which made me feel very uncomfortable.

Because I vaguely felt that the owner of that breath was an extremely powerful existence, and that desolate and long-lasting breath made me worry, whether that thing came from another powerful existence from ancient times.

So I am a little worried, after all, it has been too troublesome recently.

It's just that the generals and Hanba have already made me a little bit burnt out, and there is another powerful ancient existence, which is really a bit overwhelming.

But I can't ignore this matter, so now my mood is not beautiful.

After Xu Yang came out, he drove directly to the museum.

The batch of seized cultural relics was originally placed in the upper warehouse and guarded by special personnel.

Later, something happened, and it has been transferred to the underground warehouse of the museum for preservation, where there is no need for special guards.

Xu Yang went through the formalities briefly, and then a few of us were led by the staff and walked towards the basement.

Those seized cultural relics were specially placed in a warehouse, and the staff left after opening the door, just let me go in by myself.

Xiaobai, Duanmuqing and I are not ordinary people, so of course we don't worry about these things.

But when Xu Yang thought of those five crazy guys, he felt a little frightened, but when he thought that with me by his side, nothing would happen, so he walked in with his heart.

Those cultural relics were placed in a corner of the room, and they were not arranged properly, but placed on the ground at random. It seems that the staff of the museum are also a little afraid of the evil ways of these cultural relics.

The cultural relics were covered with a layer of black cloth. Duanmuqing walked over and tore off the black cloth to reveal the cultural relics underneath.

Seeing those cultural relics, both Duanmuqing and I gasped.

It turned out that these were not ordinary cultural relics, but several bronze wares, and they were not small in size.

Anyone who likes antiques knows that bronze ware is a taboo, and reselling such cultural relics is a felony if caught.

Especially bronzes with inscriptions and carvings, the price is even sky-high.

There are as many as seven or eight bronze wares placed in front of us now, and some of them have obvious decorations at a glance.

"Experts have looked at this batch of cultural relics. Preliminary calculations should come from the tomb of a certain nobleman in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. As for whether these cultural relic dealers got it from the tomb themselves, or bought it from the tomb robbers, it is still unknown." Xu Yang. He walked up to us and said.

I nodded, those five guys are crazy now, so naturally they can't ask anything.

These bronze wares are covered with copper rust, and traces of soil can be clearly seen on them. It seems that it has not been unearthed for a long time.

There is a long-lasting atmosphere on these objects, and they are definitely genuine antiques, not fakes.

I stepped forward and set my sights on one of the bronze vessels.

It was a bronze wine bottle with clear patterns on it.

The decoration is a bit abstract, like some kind of wild beast, the specific shape is not clear, but the two eyes are huge.

I hesitated for a moment, then stretched out my hand and directly took the bronze wine bottle in my hand.

The reason for doing this is of course not because I have taken a fancy to this wine bottle.

To be honest, I don't have much research on cultural relics, so of course I'm not too obsessed.

The reason why I picked up this wine bottle is because I can feel the breath on it, which is almost the same as the breath on the five tomb robbers.

If I didn't guess wrong, the source of the strange aura in the bodies of the five tomb robbers came from this wine bottle!
I looked at the bronze wine bottle in my hand. Although I don't know cultural relics, I can still tell that the workmanship of this thing is very fine.

Especially the decorations carved on it are very particular.

In ancient times, bronze utensils were only used by high-ranking officials and nobles. There is no doubt that the owner of this wine glass must have been a person of great status.

"This pattern is the Taotie pattern, which is said to be from a fierce beast in ancient times." At this moment, Xu Yang walked up to me and said.

Hearing his words, I turned my head and glanced at him in surprise. I didn't expect this guy to have some research on antiques.

To be honest, I don't know anything about these things, and I can't even recognize this pattern at all.

Seeing my gaze, Xu Yang smiled slightly, and then said: "Actually, I don't understand this either. It's all said by experts who have identified cultural relics."

I laughed too, thinking that this was the case.

Although I didn't recognize that it was a Taotie decoration, but I was very clear about Taotie.

Taotie is a legendary ferocious beast with a delicious disposition, and will eat whatever it sees.

There are many legends about Taotie. Some say that it was transformed from the head of Chi You after death, and some say that it is one of the nine sons of the dragon.

Moreover, Taotie, Qiongqi, Zhuwu, and Chaos are also known as the Four Great Beasts.

And Taotie ranks first among the four fierce beasts, which is enough to show its strength.

According to legend, gluttony is greedy and extremely greedy. Later, it actually wanted to swallow the sun in the sky.

The ancient gods Nuwa and Fuxi defeated the beast at the same time, and sealed its soul forever.

Although the fierce beast Taotie has never appeared since then, the power and fear of it have always been with people.

This is why many cultural relics unearthed in ancient times have taotie patterns on them.

Taotie gradually became a kind of spiritual belief of people from a ferocious beast at that time.

"Is there something wrong with this thing?" Duanmuqing asked me.

I nodded solemnly, the aura above is exactly the same as that of the five tomb robbers, there must be a ghost if there is no problem.

The breath on this wine bottle is desolate and long-lasting, although it is only a trace, it still makes me feel its power.

I held the wine bottle, felt the power on it, and thought in disbelief, could this breath be gluttonous?

But hasn't that ferocious beast been sealed away by Nuwa and Fuxi, and disappeared for thousands of years?
But if it wasn't for it, then who did the breath above come from?

Thinking of this, I took a deep breath and put a little of my strength into the bronze wine bottle.

At first, the trace of power above didn't react at all, as if it was in a deep sleep.

But the next moment, the remaining power reacted, as if awakened, and began to respond to my evil spirit.

I tried to cross into a little power again.

It's just that this time, the force on the wine bottle reacted strongly, and it rolled over directly.

The next moment, my eyes went black, and then a pair of huge eyes appeared in front of my eyes.

The owner of those eyes belonged to a huge head, and the monster was opening its bloody mouth and roaring at me non-stop.

I looked towards him, and saw that the monster had only one head, and there was no body behind it.

This picture just passed before my eyes, and my vision returned to normal the next moment, and the power on the bronze wine bottle disappeared.

What I saw just now had a great impact on me, and the powerful momentum made me feel an indescribable sense of oppression.

I took two steps back and let out a heavy breath to feel more comfortable.

"Master, are you alright?" Seeing my appearance, Xiaobai rushed over and grabbed me.

Duanmuqing and Xu Yang on the side looked at me worriedly.

I shook my head, indicating that it was okay, and then put the bronze wine bottle on the spot.

Now the strange and terrifying power on this thing has disappeared, and this batch of cultural relics is no different from ordinary cultural relics.

Except for the bronze wine bottle, I didn't feel that breath on other ancient objects.

This made me a little confused, so I checked those things again, and finally found that only the bronze wine bottle had taotie decorations on it.

When I came to this conclusion, my heart was moved. Could it be that the strange aura has something to do with the Taotie decoration?

I thought of the huge monster I saw just now, the huge monster with only one head.

Obviously, it is the master of that breath.

Although it doesn't know where it is, there is a breath of it on the wine bottle. I used my evil spirit to interact with that breath, so I saw it.

I swallowed hard, thinking of the huge and frightening aura coming from the monster just now, cold sweat broke out on my head.

The aura of that thing is too powerful for me, stronger than the 梼杌 that I have seen before.

Will it be gluttonous?

If it is really Taotie, what exactly does the beast want to do, and what relationship do those cultural relic dealers have with these antiques and Taotie?
Since there is no such breath on these things, there is no need to stay any longer.

We walked right out.

Xu Yang saw that my complexion had been sour, and he was uncertain, so he asked me cautiously: "There won't be any big event this time, right?"

I looked back at Xu Yang, knowing that my nervous appearance just now made him a little scared, so I smiled at him and said, "It's okay, don't worry, everything will be fine with me here."

Hearing my words, Xu Yang nodded his head, which was a bit of relief.

It's just that after comforting Xu Yang, I felt a wry smile in my heart. If that power is really from the beast's gluttonous beast, this matter will be a bit big!
