Looking at the only effect enhancement talisman, Chen Yi did not use it directly. Instead, he asked the system a question in his mind to see if he could know the function of the intermediate treasure search talisman before using it successfully.
Just like when using it, the system will prompt whether to upgrade the primary treasure search talisman to the intermediate treasure search talisman, and then in the system prompt, the differences between the primary and intermediate treasure search talismans will appear.
Only if the system gives a negative reply, and the effect of the intermediate treasure search talisman can only be seen after using the effect enhancement talisman.
Chen Yi couldn't help but smile bitterly, and then used the effect enhancement talisman in his mind, "Please select the target prop or skill with enhanced effects" The system prompted in his mind, "Elementary treasure search talisman." Looking at what the system prompted With several props and a skill, he directly chose the elementary treasure search talisman.
"Whether to use the effect enhancement talisman to upgrade the primary treasure search talisman to the intermediate treasure search talisman, after use, the result is irreversible."
Chen Yi chose OK, and the effect enhancement talisman in the item bar immediately floated up, and was printed on the five primary treasure search talismans. Then the light flashed, and one of the treasure search talismans floated out and landed on the original treasure search talisman. In the position of the effect enhancement talisman, after the light disappeared, the original position of the effect enhancement talisman has become an intermediate treasure search talisman, and the number of primary treasure search talismans has also changed from the original five to four.
After the upgrade was successful, Chen Yi immediately focused on the intermediate treasure-seeking talisman that floated out alone.
"Intermediate Treasure Hunting Talisman: It can transform into an ancient mythical beast, the Treasure Hunting Rat, to search for valuable antiques or cultural relics within 100 meters of the host and within a thousand years ago. The transformed Treasure Hunting Rat will automatically search for valuable antiques or cultural relics within 100 meters nearby. Within a meter, one of the most valuable antiques or cultural relics that has been hidden for a thousand years will disappear after being found. If there is no antique near the host, the treasure hunter will disappear after two minutes of transformation, and the treasure hunter will disappear. Later, the treasure search talisman will also be consumed."
"Remarks: Hidden state. Objects that are hidden within other objects and cannot be viewed directly or in a short period of time with the naked eye. If there are no hidden antiques or cultural relics nearby, you will find an antique or cultural relic with the highest value."
Chen Yi looked at the introduction of this intermediate treasure search talisman with a helpless expression. Sure enough, it has only been upgraded to one level, but the effect is still not as powerful as imagined. Although the range has changed from fifty meters to one hundred meters, the age has also changed from five hundred years ago to one thousand years ago, and the existence time of the treasure hunter has also become two minutes.
It’s just that the hidden antiques are different from what he thought before. What he thought was hidden. Naturally, they are all antiques that have not been discovered by others, such as porcelain or calligraphy and paintings that have not been discovered by the shop owner or others in an antique shop. But now they are somewhat different, items that are hidden in other items or cannot be directly seen with the naked eye. This I'm afraid it's just like the God of Wealth ornaments. The most valuable Tianhuang stone seal is hidden in it. This is the hidden antique that can be found by the intermediate treasure search talisman.
And if there are some antiques full of dust. If it is placed in a corner of the antique shop without being included in other items, the treasure search talisman cannot be found.
Of course, if there are no more valuable antiques around, then the treasure search talisman can still be found.
Chen Yi couldn't help but shake his head and smile. It seems that this intermediate treasure search talisman is still not strong enough. Perhaps it is because the analysis takes up too much energy and the curios are hidden among other items. On the contrary, it is easier to find than antiques that are not hidden.
Although he was a little disappointed, Chen Yi didn't have any negative emotions. After all, what he needed most at this stage was to learn various antique knowledge instead of hunting for treasures. Even if the intermediate treasure-hunting talisman has the function he imagined, he only has one now. Zhang Ze has already.
I looked at the antique shops lined up in front of me. Chen Yi smiled, but he didn't know if there were any antiques hidden among other items in the antique shops within a hundred meters.
I used the intermediate treasure search talisman in my mind, and the treasure search talisman still turned into a golden treasure search rat. It's just that this treasure-hunting mouse made of an intermediate treasure-seeking talisman is much fatter than the primary treasure-seeking talisman, and it looks cuter. This treasure-seeking mouse sniffed everywhere and scurried in one direction. After passing by, since the treasure hunter only existed for two minutes, Chen Yi was not too anxious. He greeted Shen Yujun and then headed in the direction of the treasure hunter.
"Chen Yi, should we go to this antique shop?" Shen Yujun couldn't help but asked with some doubts when he saw Chen Yi heading towards an antique shop called Qinhan Pavilion.
Chen Yi looked at the treasure hunter waving his paw towards him at the door, and nodded immediately, "Well, Mr. Yu, after visiting so many Tiandi stalls, it's time to go into the antique store to see if there is anything missing that can be picked up."
"You two, welcome to Qinhan Pavilion. As the name suggests, we have bronzes from the Qin and Han dynasties to porcelain from the Ming and Qing dynasties., guaranteed not to let you down. "As soon as I entered the door, a staff member greeted me warmly.
"Haha, let's take a look first, you're busy." Chen Yi nodded, and then wandered around the antique store casually, but he kept following the treasure hunter in his footsteps.
Since the treasure hunter has found this antique store, it means that there are hidden antiques in this antique store. Regardless of whether the antiques are valuable or not, they are hidden. Of course, in other words, they can be hidden. If it is found, it must be valuable, otherwise, others will not spend the effort to hide the antiques among other items.
So as long as the treasure hunter finds something hidden, it must be valuable. Of course, if there are no hidden antiques, what the treasure hunter searches for will naturally be the most valuable antique within a hundred meters.
While following the treasure hunter, Chen Yi browsed the antiques in this antique store. This antique store was quite good, better than Uncle Liu's antique store. At least there were some genuine antiques displayed in the store. Of course, The price is naturally more expensive.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? The treasure-spotting mouse did not look for these authentic antiques placed in plain sight, so there must be hidden antiques. Chen Yi smiled and carefully watched the search-and-spotting mouse’s movements.
Suddenly, the treasure-hunting mouse jumped onto a shelf with antiques, then stopped among a pile of items and chirped at Chen Yi.
Chen Yi looked at the remaining time of the treasure hunter in the system, and observed a few antiques nearby for a while, then he and Shen Yujun slowly came to the shelf where the treasure hunter was located.
What surprised him a little was that this was a shelf where brushes were placed. There were many brushes on it, and they all looked very simple. They were all made of wood, and on these pieces of wood. There are more or less carved patterns.
Chen Yi couldn't help but be stunned. Could it be that the so-called hidden antiques with the highest value are these brushes? Although he didn't know the value of the brushes, he also knew that the value of antiques such as brushes would not be as valuable as that of porcelain and porcelain. High calligraphy and painting.
According to his eyesight, the patterns carved on these brushes are very rough. Even if it is from the Ming and Qing dynasties, its value will not be very high.
Watching the treasure rat keep chirping at him, Chen Yi quickly picked up the brushes piled together with his hands. Suddenly, the treasure rat screamed excitedly and grabbed one of the brushes tightly with its paws.
Chen Yi Dingqing took a look and found that this brush was a bit strange. The pen body is a little fatter than other brushes, but if you don't look carefully, you can't find it. Could it be that this brush is a treasure.
"Well, no, Chen Yi suddenly thought of the notes on the intermediate treasure search talisman, so to speak. The most valuable thing is not the brush, but what is hidden in it, or there is another brush hidden in it.
At this time, the time for the treasure hunter to exist came, and it turned into a little golden light and disappeared in front of Chen Yi. At this time, Chen Yi just looked at the brush that the treasure hunter found with his eyes. After all, Shen Yujun was still there. Watching from the side. He couldn't pick it up so directly. This would inevitably arouse unnecessary suspicion, although he believed in Shen Yujun very much.
"With so many brushes, if you take out a valuable treasure without looking carefully, anyone would be suspicious."
"Chen Yi, are you going to buy a brush and go back?" I saw Chen Yi stopped in front of a pile of brushes and observed carefully. Shen Yujun on the side asked curiously.
Chen Yi nodded, "Yujun, I feel a little unconvinced that your calligraphy is so good. I also practiced calligraphy hard for four years in the University of Finance and Economics. I think I should continue to practice hard and strive to master calligraphy." Practice calligraphy to your level.”
"Okay, Chen Yi, then I'll wait for you. If you inscribe on the paintings I painted at that time, maybe after a few decades, our paintings will be worth a lot of money. Then we will be short of money. Just take out one and sell it." After hearing Chen Yi's words, Shen Yujun thought for a while, and then a look of longing appeared on his face.
"It will definitely be valuable." Chen Yi said with some emotion. What people look forward to most in life is undoubtedly what will happen to him in a few decades, how will his life change, and who is his wife next to him? In the next few years, whether the work will be sought after by others is naturally something that people look forward to. Likewise, it is also an artist's lifelong pursuit.
Shen Yujun nodded, with a smile on his face, "Chen Yi, this is our common goal, we must work hard."
"You first pick a brush you like. I'll go over there and look at the paintings. Maybe I can find a treasure." At this time, she saw some paintings and calligraphy hanging on the wall next to her and said with a smile.
Chen Yi nodded in agreement. When he saw Shen Yujun leaving, he couldn't help but pick up the fat brush., this brush was also carved from wood, but some of the patterns on it were still very rough. Suddenly holding the brush, he felt something was wrong. The brush seemed to be heavier than what he had just held.
He couldn’t help but casually pick up a writing brush placed on the shelf. As he felt, this fat writing brush was much heavier than ordinary ones. From this point of view, there must be something hidden inside.
Chen Yi no longer hesitated and directly used the identification technique, "This item requires two identification techniques. Do you want to continue?"
Hearing the system prompt, Chen Yi's eyes lit up and he nodded in agreement, "The item identification was successful, the information is as follows, bamboo carving brush, production year: thirty years ago."
"Item material: brown bamboo."
"Artistic features: The brush is a traditional Chinese writing and painting tool. It is an indispensable treasure for recording culture. It is also an irreplaceable writing tool in the world. It is said that it was made by General Meng Tian of the Qin Dynasty. The brush can be used freely, and the fonts produced in calligraphy and painting Beautiful writing style"
"Material characteristics: Brown bamboo is a perennial green shrub-shaped bamboo. The bamboo stem is flat, thin and tough. It is also used to make fan bones and pen barrels."
"Item value: Brown bamboo is a common species of bamboo. The carvings on the brush are extremely rough and have low value."
Chen Yi looked at the first identified information in his mind and couldn't help but smile. This should be the wooden shell wrapped outside. He didn't know what material the brush hidden inside would be made of and what its value was. Even if it was The value is slightly higher, and it's not worth it that he wasted an effect enhancement talisman and a treasure search talisman to find it.
"The item is being appraisedthe appraisal failed. The age of the item exceeds the appraisal range of the primary appraisal technique."
What? When Chen Yi heard the system prompt, he couldn't help but froze for a moment. The identification failed. Is it possible for a brush to be more than five hundred years old? With the functions and materials of the brush, it is difficult to preserve it for such a long time.
Suddenly, he thought of the introduction of the intermediate identification talisman, and couldn't help but smile bitterly. He could search for antiques that were less than a thousand years old. The thing hidden in this brush may have been made more than five hundred years ago.
He had known that the effect enhancement talisman would be used on this brush, but when he thought about it carefully, he smiled bitterly again. If the effect enhancement talisman had been left behind, it is estimated that even with the five hundred years of elementary treasure hunting talismans, he would not be able to search for this more than 100 years old. It has been a five-hundred-year-old writing brush.
Now that he knew that this thing was hidden in the brush, Chen Yi didn't seem very anxious. If he went back and asked Gao Cunzhi for advice, he might be able to know the value of the thing hidden in it.
And based on the characteristics of this brush, it is very easy to explain. After all, this brush has many differences from other normal brushes, but he is very looking forward to what is hidden inside.
"Chen Yi, have you picked it out?" He took the writing brush and observed it for a while. At this time, Shen Yujun returned to his side and asked with a smile.
Chen Yi smiled at her, "I've picked out these few pieces. They look very simple. I'll feel better when I'm writing." As he said that, Chen Yi picked up a few brushes next to him and put them in his hand. The treasure search talismans were put together. At a glance, no difference could be seen at all.
"Well, shall we continue shopping? The paintings and calligraphy in this store are basically imitations." Shen Yujun nodded and said with some disappointment.
"Haha, Mr. Yu, searching for items on Taobao is the same as painting. The most important thing is to be patient. I took a look just now and found that there is basically nothing left. Let's go out." Seeing Shen Yujun's appearance, Chen Yi couldn't help but smile. .
