Chapter 698 Skull
This piece of Tianhuang Stone, which was actually picked up yesterday from the garbage of the “Zhu Xian” Universe, and looks to have come from the Qingyun gate.
On Earth, the Tianhuang Stone is the greatest treasure, however, in the Zhu Xian Universe, it is not seen to be so precious.
It may be worth a little money in the secular world, but in a Cultivation Sect like the Qingyun Gate, not many people would care about it.
Cultivators want Magic Weapon or natural resources which are useful for their cultivations, they do not care about secular gold and silver treasures.
Perhaps, this Tianhuang Stone was picked up by some Cultivator and he carved it to use as an ornament, but it was accidentally broken and thrown away because it became an eyesore.
“What do you mean you are willing to give it up? Do you know how precious this thing is?” Hearing Su Jing’s words, Shen Hong felt like cursing his seven generations, he wondered if this guy had too many treasures and didn’t know how to cherish them.
If such a treasure is obtained by normal people then they would keep it to themselves as much as possible. If not for lack of money, who would be willing to sell it?
“Mr. Su, such a treasure should really be hidden. This kind of treasure can’t be measured by money at all.” Old Song also persuaded Su Jing. If this treasure belonged to him then he wouldn’t sell it even if he died. That’s how much of a great treasure it is.
It hurts to even think about selling it. If they have enough money then maybe they would have hoped that Su Jing would sell it so that they can buy it and put it in their own pockets.
But this treasure, even if they bankrupt their family, it would not enough for even the 1% of the total price of this treasure.
“Don’t persuade me, I have already decided. But looking at your expressions and listening to your tone of voice, it can be seen that this treasure should be able to cause a sensation and it will also achieve my goal.” Su Jing laughed as he spoke.
Shen Hong and Old Song couldn’t help but want to scold Su Jing for laughing, this guy didn’t know how to cherish it.
Is there only money in your eyes? However, if this item is really put into Auction House, it will not only cause a sensation, but the whole Collecting World will blow up.
“Okay, there is one last treasure, please take a look at it. Even I know about the first two treasures but I really don’t know anything about the last one.” Su Jing said. He was about to open another box next to it.
“Wait, wait for a little, let us take a breath first.” Shen Hong and Old Song patted their chests and inhaled deeply.
The first two treasures were too shocking and exciting. God knows what kind of ghost Su Jing had put in the third box. They are really worried that if it continues, their heart will give up on them.
…
Looking at Shen Hong and Old Song that took a deep breath to adjust their breathing pattern, Su Jing couldn’t help but laugh a little.
After a few moments, Shen Hong and Old Song, whose breathing had returned to a steady-state, only slowly said, “It’s OK, open it.”
They also consoled themselves in their hearts, it is not possible for someone to have endless treasure even if that someone is Su Jing, and besides, they have seen the best Taisui and the best Tianhuang Stone, what else can be as exciting as that.
Su Jing slowly opened the box and as Shen Hong and Old Song looked down at the content, they couldn’t help being stunned again but for different reasons.
At first glance, the object in the box looks like an oval stone, it’s gray and white with some small cracks on it. It seems nothing special.
At that moment, the two elders felt very strange. Su Jing actually took out such a stone and put it in the same position as the Taisui and Tianhuang Stone. Is he joking with them?
Shen Hong and Old Song carefully moved the “Stone” out of the box, and then saw the whole picture of the whole stone.
After a moment of careful observation, Shen Hong and Old Song’s eyes gradually widened and their breathing suddenly stopped, and it looked like their chins were about to fall to the ground.
Shen Hong’s lips trembled as he spoke: “This…this is an imitation, right?”
Old Song said: “It must be an imitation, it can’t be real, but the workmanship is so exquisite that I almost believed it to be real.”
Shen Hong looked relieved before he ??smiled and said: “That really scared me, I almost believed it to be real.”
Su Jing, however, smiled lightly and said: “From the looks on your faces, I realized that I hadn’t seen it wrong. However, who told you that this is an imitation, you should take a closer look to see whether this is the real thing or an imitation.”
Both Shen Hong and Old Song’s expressions slightly changed. They looked at the “Stone” in disbelief, and then took out a magnifying glass and other tools to take a closer look to inspect it.
The more they look, the less calm they were, and the more rapid their breathing becomes.
Shen Hong still couldn’t believe it: “Impossible, how is this possible.”
Old Song flushed with excitement and spoke: “Mr…Mr. Su, are you trying to say that this is this really a Peking Ape-Man Skull Fossil?”
This “Stone” does indeed look like a fossil. Looking at the whole picture, it can be seen that it is a skull that looks similar to a human skull, but it is obviously a little different.
The outline of the skull is obviously biased towards Ape-Man, which means that this is an Ape-Man Skull.
In the winter of 1929, Archaeologists began to excavate in Zhoukoudian and discovered some complete Ape-Man Skulls dating back to about 600,000 years ago.
They were named Peking Man Skull, also known as Peking Ape-Man Skull, and later officially named as “Peking Species of Chinese Ape-Man”. Now scientifically, they are often called “Beijing Homo Erectus”, belonging to the Paleolithic Age.
In 1941, the Peking Ape-Man Skull was handed over to the US Navy-Marine Corps who were about to leave Beijing and withdraw their forces back to the United States.
On December 5 of the same year, the train on which the unit was traveling went to Qinhuangdao(A Port City).
However, due to the subsequent outbreak of the attack on Pearl Harbor, the Japanese army captured American Soldiers in Beijing, Tianjin, and other places, and the whereabouts of the Peking Ape-Man Skull have since been unknown.
