mysterious forerunner

Chapter 5 Statue of Nuwa with Broken Face

At 11:30 p.m., Zhang Qingxiang fused all the remaining source materials.

The quality of these seven pieces is inferior to that of "Fu Shu Diao Qian" and "Sima Scale".

I was unable to unlock new professional skills for Zhang Qingxiang, but I upgraded both [Treasure Appraisal] and [Measurement] to the second level.

[Treasure Appraisal] You can now identify treasures that are not higher than the fourth level.

The judgment range of [Measurement] has increased to 40%.

The energy vortex was built to the ninth level in one go.

Zhang Qingxiang walked out of the hotel and his destination was a private museum.

A batch of collections will be delivered to the museum tonight.

There are several very precious collections among them, so the owner of the museum will personally take people to receive them.

An Jizong is a security guard at this museum. In the process of transporting these collections, he accidentally came into contact with a "touchstone".

After the fusion, An Jizong became an awakened one and then soared into the sky.

The museum is on the outskirts of the city. When Zhang Qingxiang arrived in an online taxi, it was already past midnight.

A van was parked in the museum courtyard, the gates were closed and the surveillance equipment was on.

Six strong security guards stood around vigilantly with sticks in their hands.

Including An Jizong, seven or eight people were carrying sealed boxes from the truck.

Four sealed boxes were piled on a cart and brought into the museum.

On the steps in front of the museum exhibition hall, stood a man in his fifties, slightly fat and with slicked back hair.

Next to him was a girl of eighteen or nineteen.

She is tall and has a high ponytail. The upper body is wearing the white and blue sports uniform of the former No. 1 Middle School in the city. The zipper is pulled to the highest position and the collar is turned into a tube, covering the small chin of the thin oval face.

Her legs are straight and long. She is wearing a pair of hot pants and beautiful and clean sneakers.

The girl tapped her heels lightly on the edge of the steps. She didn't need any tall height to set her off, and her body proportions were also a standard nine-headed body.

She had her hands in her school uniform pockets, her eyebrows were starry, her cheeks were slightly pink, her nose was straight, and her bangs on her forehead were trimmed neatly and concisely.

Under the light, her skin was as white as porcelain and as greasy as jade.

The whole body is full of infinite youthful vitality.

The museum manager stepped forward and said, "Museum owner, all the collections have been unloaded."

"Boxes No. 2-10 will be delivered to the warehouse."

"The thing that the lady wants to see is in box No. 1."

"I'll have it sent to your office."

The girl on the steps showed an expectant smile and said crisply: "Thank you, Uncle Zhou, for loving me since I was a child."

Manager Zhou repeatedly said "should".

The owner of the museum, Ye Jiucheng, looked at his daughter dotingly: "If you insist on staying up late with me, I can finally see the painting for the first time. Let's go to my office."

Ye Yousheng chuckled: "You also know that he is my favorite painter."

She turned around and walked briskly toward the office, hopping on her feet like a vigorous sika deer: "Dad, I'm going first."

Ye Jiucheng smiled fondly and stepped faster: "Girl, please slow down, don't fall..."

Zhang Qingxiang stood outside the museum wall, took a breath, the energy in his body surged, and blew gently towards the sky above his head.

A piece of psychedelia fell down and enveloped itself, and all surveillance equipment could not capture Zhang Qingxiang's figure.

The first-level secret technique [Mirage].

Then Zhang Qingxiang once again mobilized his spiritual energy to concentrate on his feet, and his figure floated lightly without touching the ground, with a fleeting trace of spiritual evil behind him.

In a flash, he jumped over the fence easily, falling like dead leaves in the yard.

The first-level secret technique [Creepy Foot].

These two secret techniques consume less spiritual power, have a wide range of applications, and have outstanding effects.

It was widely circulated in the previous life and is recognized as a secret technique that must be practiced in the early stage.

Almost everyone among low-level monks can use it.

It is impossible to verify who created it.

In this life, it was naturally Zhang Qingxiang who "created" it.

An Jizong was pulling a cart into the museum building.

Zhang Qingxiang followed.

An Jizong was in his forties, short in stature and plain in appearance.

In the last life, Zhang Qingxiang caught Du Dajin twice, but An Jizong strongly protected Du Dajin, and Du Dajin was safe in the end.

At that time, Zhang Qingxiang was very angry, but there was nothing he could do. An Jizong and another security guard teamed up to transport four boxes into the warehouse.

The two of them supervised each other along the way, and there was no blind spot under surveillance in the museum.

Zhang Qingxiang followed them, guessing whether one of the sealed boxes slipped and fell and scattered. An Jizong came into contact with that "touchstone" while packing up the collection.

Because apart from the transportation process, the security guards have no other opportunity to come into contact with the collection.

However, the four sealed boxes have been sent to the warehouse without any accidents.

Zhang Qingxiang was sneaking around and observing. When all the boxes were delivered and the password-locked door of the warehouse was closed, An Jizong had no chance of coming into contact with the "touchstone".

"What's going on?" Zhang Qingxiang frowned: "In the last life, An Jizong got drunk one time and said personally that he fused with Touchstone tonight."

"An Jizong remembered it wrong..."

"Or... some things have gone awry because of my changes?"

In the yard, the person in charge of the security company responsible for the escort confirmed with Manager Zhou that the handover was completed. Manager Zhou signed the documents and the van left.

Manager Zhou arranged for security guards to be on duty: "If you work hard today, the number of people on duty will be doubled."

"Lao An, Lao Zhao, you two will stay too."

"Okay." An Jizong and the other two responded.

Then Manager Zhou went to Ye Jiucheng's office.

Zhang Qingxiang thought for a while and returned to the warehouse.

The truly valuable collections in museums are kept in vaults.

This warehouse is used for temporary storage of general collections.

Zhang Qingxiang had just memorized the password for the door lock. He gently exhaled towards the surveillance camera in the corner at the gate and performed another secret technique of [Mirage Spitting].

Both the inside and outside of the warehouse are shrouded in [Mirage], and all changes here will not be monitored and recorded.

Zhang Qingxiang opened the door and went in, opening the sealed boxes one by one.

When it came to the third box, Zhang Qingxiang found the "touchstone".

"Huh?" Zhang Qingxiang picked up the "touchstone" and frowned.

This touchstone is just an ordinary antique.

It’s not a professional source!
Zhang Qingxiang quickly opened all the boxes, but did not find the second touchstone.

"Is there another touchstone in box No. 1?"

Zhang Qingxiang came out and went straight to Ye Jiucheng's office.

The decoration of Ye Jiucheng's office is not luxurious, but the two large shelves against the wall are filled with various collections.

Sealed box No. 1 has been moved to his desk.

Ye Yousheng was very excited, with little stars shining in her eyes.

But Ye Jiucheng held down the sealed box and said with some anxiety: "Let's agree first, you must not tell your mother that you came to the museum with me to look at paintings after one o'clock when you were still up."

Ye Yousheng pursed her lips and smiled: "Dad, your whole life, you will be eaten to death by my mother."

Ye Jiucheng's face turned red and he tried to defend himself: "You don't understand, this is not fear, this is love."

Ye Yousheng said: "Okay, okay, I promise not to tell my mother."

Ye Jiucheng, who was so old, actually held out his little finger to his daughter very solemnly: "Lagou, you must keep your word."

Ye Yousheng pulled the hook, and Ye Jiucheng was completely relieved.

Then the father and daughter opened the sealed box together. Ye Yousheng quickly put on a pair of white gloves and unfolded an ancient painting. He was immediately immersed in the artistic conception and skills of the ancient painting, full of admiration.

This painting cost Ye Jiucheng 3.7 million!
Seeing his daughter like it very much, Ye Jiucheng felt it was worth it.

Neither father nor daughter noticed that another ancient painting in the box unfolded and rose automatically and silently.

The paper of the scroll is yellowed, damaged in several places, the scroll is missing, and the state of preservation is extremely poor.

The painting depicts a scene of an immortal family, with mountain pavilions connected in the distance, luxuriant fairy grass, and numerous spiritual fruits.

Among the luxuriant grass jelly grass, there are numerous white bones exposed;
There seems to be an innocent soul in the place where the spiritual fruits are abundant!
Half of the palace was revealed nearby, with the goddess Ling Feng standing in front of the palace.

If Ye Yousheng could see this painting, he would definitely recognize that the goddess in this painting is "Nuwa".

It's just that in this picture of Nuwa, she is wearing a lotus pink dress, and the left foot exposed under the skirt is a claw!
It's sharp and ferocious, with black hair growing out of the gaps between its claws.

The damaged part of the scroll happened to be on the left side of the goddess Nuwa's face.

At first glance, this painting looks like the goddess Nuwa has a missing left eye!
Or the scar on the left side of the face.

How weird.

In the partial portrait, the "Goddess Nuwa" seemed to be alive. She glanced at everything around her and suddenly showed a crazy and evil smile.
