chapter 10 frog in the well

"How old are you? Do you deserve me to celebrate your birthday?"

Old Yan's merciless words made Fang Tianhao tremble all over, his face turned from white to red, from red to green, and finally turned into bloodless pale.

This face-changing became faster than turning the pages of a book, it was simply wonderful.

Unknowingly.

Everyone seemed to hear the crackling sound echoing in the hall.

Fang Tianhao's chest heaved violently, he felt dizzy and almost fainted.

It's a shame to throw it home!

He boasted just now that he and Yan Lao are close friends, and Yan Lao came here specially to celebrate his birthday. In the end, Yan Lao's words exposed his lie in public.

for a while.

The guests in the hall looked at Fang Tianhao from envy and jealousy to gloating and pity.

Charlie Chen asked curiously; "Old Yan, didn't you come to the birthday banquet?"

"To his birthday party? Is he worthy?"

With a strong mockery on his face, Old Yan turned his eyes to Ethan Xiao, and said lightly, "I'm here to visit Young Master Xiao today!"

hiss!

Charlie Chen and the others gasped.

Visiting Ethan Xiao?

The eyes of everyone looking at Ethan Xiao changed drastically. The figure of the son-in-law of the Fang family in front of him became extremely tall at this moment.

"What's the virtue of this trash? Even Yan Lao respects him so much?"

"Do you think Mr. Yan said that for the sake of the Xiao family's face?"

"Impossible, Ethan Xiao has already been kicked out by the Xiao family, it's impossible for Mr. Yan not to know..."

"Then how do you explain that?"

"No matter what, this little son-in-law is already flying high. With Mr. Yan's relationship, who would dare to look down on him in the future?"

in the crowd.

Audrey Fang's face was blue and white, like a dormant poisonous snake, swallowing a cold and resentful light.

Both fists were clenched tightly, and the knuckles were pale due to too much force.

Ever since the fifth limb was abolished by Ethan Xiao, Audrey Fang's heart has been completely distorted.

He never thought of revenge.

It's just that Fang Jin didn't return, he could only wait, he finally got a chance today to make Ethan Xiao Yi lose face, but as soon as Yan Lao showed up, Ethan Xiao soared into the sky, and became Yan Lao's long-forgotten friend.

Looking at the gazes of those people staring at Ethan Xiao, it was no longer contemptuous and mocking as before, but full of enthusiasm, wishing to become like a dog licking, kneeling and licking Ethan Xiao.

"Why does this trash get Fang Qingzhu, why does Yan Lao come to visit him? Why isn't it me? I don't accept it, I don't accept it..."

Fang Ao took a deep breath, with crazy hatred in his eyes, he said loudly: "Old Yan, you must not be fooled by Ethan Xiao, he is a disloyal, filial, benevolent and unrighteous scum. Just before you came, Ethan Xiao took Presenting a fake painting as a birthday gift to the Patriarch, not only did we not feel guilty about it, but turned around and left without paying attention to the Patriarch at all."

Leo Thunder also added fuel to the sidelines: "Audrey Fang is right, Ethan Xiao is a beast. Old Yan doesn't know that I was the first to see the statue yesterday, but he snatched it away. She also framed me as a trap for him..."

The two spoke in tears.

There was a playful look in Yan Lao's eyes, and he deliberately asked: "Young Master Xiao, is what they said true?"

Ethan Xiao touched his nose: "What do you think?"

"I think……"

Yan Lao pretended to murmur, and stared at Audrey Fang and the others in anticipation. The invisible vitality turned into two cold palms and slammed the two of them to the ground. The cold voice made them feel like falling The ice cellar, the bone-chilling chill covered the whole body, "The two of them are just farting!"

General Yan unfolded the "Fu Hu Sword Picture" in his hand, and said with a cold expression: "The fake painting you are talking about is the one in my hand?"

Audrey Fang covered his face, got up with difficulty, nodded and said: "Yes, it is this fake painting. Master Zhang has personally identified it, and this painting is fake!"

"No, that's right!"

Leo Thunder spat out a mouthful of blood with his teeth in it, with an aggrieved expression on his face.

Yan Lao looked at Evan Zhang and said calmly: "Evan Zhang, you say this painting is fake? What is your basis?"

ah?

Evan Zhang was stunned for a moment, and he didn't dare to lie under Yan Lao's sharp gaze. He nodded his head and said: "Yan Lao should know that Golden Trace, the life-killing scholar, is one of the four great talents who are as famous as Tommy Tang and others. , but he killed too much, all his works were destroyed by his enemies, and there is no calligraphy handed down at all. In addition, there is no record in the history books of this "Fu Hu Jian Tu", so I concluded that it is fake!"

"Look, Mr. Yan, there is no calligraphy handed down by the life-killing scholar. How could this painting be authentic? We deduce that he must have bought this street stall from some unscrupulous counterfeit vendor, and used it as a birthday gift... "

Audrey Fang thought he had found the truth, and the more he talked, the more complacent he became, "But he never expected that Master Zhang is a great collector and has a deep research on ancient paintings. He can tell at a glance that they are fake paintings, which exposed him. mask of hypocrisy!"

Looking at Audrey Fang who seemed to be grasping the truth, Ethan Xiao touched his nose and looked at Old Yan with a strange expression.

Unscrupulous counterfeit vendors?

Yan Lao's face turned green, and he said with a gloomy face, "Do you know where he got this painting?"

Fang Ao shook his head: "I didn't ask about this... I heard that what Yan Lao hates the most is a liar who makes fake things. I believe that as long as he tortures him to extract a confession, Ethan Xiao will definitely confess that liar and bring him to justice!"

"There's no need to force a confession, I know who the fake liar you are talking about is!" Yan Lao said with a dark face.

"ah?"

Audrey Fang was stunned for a moment, and then said flatteringly, "Old Yan is wise and powerful, and he can already guess who the fake liar is without leaving home!"

Yan Lao said indifferently: "You also know that person!"

"I know?"

Audrey Fang looked bewildered.

Yan Lao said with a cold face, "This painting was taken from my study, the fake liar you mentioned, if nothing else, it is me! You want to take my Bring to justice?"

Plop!

Audrey Fang was so frightened that he sat down on the ground, his face turned pale in an instant, and he looked at Yan Lao in disbelief: "This, this, this painting is yours?"

At this moment , Audrey Fang felt remorseful and dead.

Nima!

He actually said that Yan Lao is a fake liar? Isn't this the old birthday star tired of eating arsenic?

Audrey Fang was so frightened that he trembled all over. He opened his mouth several times to defend himself, but found that he was too nervous to make a sound. He was so anxious that he almost cried.

The people around were also dumbfounded.

Never thought that things would take such a turn.

grunt!

Fang Tianhao was the first to come back to his senses, looked at the "Fu Hu Sword Picture" in Yan Lao's hand in disbelief, and asked tentatively: "Yan, Yan Lao, since this picture is real, then, then it must be Is it worth a lot?"

Evan Zhang, who was also full of horror, swallowed his saliva and said in a trembling voice: "If this is true, it is the only treasure left by the life- Golden Trace scholar Jin Wuhen in the world. Its value is limitless, at least as high as A million taels of silver."

"What?"

Everyone was stunned.

Especially Fang Tianhao was trembling all over, wishing to slap Fang Audrey Fang to death, if Audrey Fang hadn't added fuel and jealousy just now, he wouldn't have thrown this picture away!

This is millions of taels of silver!

Even for the Fang family, a million taels of silver is not a small sum.

Yan Lao sneered, and said sarcastically, "A group of frogs at the bottom of the well treat such a treasure as rubbish. If it falls into your hands, it will be a pearl dusted!"

Fang Tianhao's face was extremely ugly. The Fang family is indeed not as good as Treasure Pavilion, but as the head of the Fang family, he has been ignored by Yan Lao many times. The house can still be taken out, so why is the pearl covered in dust?"

"idiot!"

Yan Lao looked contemptuous, and said lightly, "I believe your Fang family can get a million taels of silver, but what about the third-rank advanced sword art? Do your Fang family have it?"
