The years I was a pirate in Interstellar

Chapter 8 The Golden Mask
Kailan pointed to an incomplete golden mask with only half of it left on the counter in the corner and said, "Can you show me that?"

"Okay, please wait a moment."

The shopping guide lady immediately took the golden mask, handed it to Kailan, and introduced: "You have a good eye, this is an antique at the bottom of our store's box, although the material is just ordinary gold, but it looks like a certain mask." It is a product of civilization that has been annihilated in the long river of history, and it is of great collection value."

The shopping guide lady's smile was full of sincerity, and she pressed the bottom of the box to say that she couldn't sell it. Although gold was worthless, it was indeed regarded as a precious metal in some low-level civilizations, and it was a symbol of antiques. She didn't lie at all.

Kailan frowned as she looked at the half-faced golden mask in front of her. This strangely shaped mask gave her a strange feeling of déjà vu.

Turn the mask over, and there are a few big characters printed on the corner of "Sanxingdui collection, genuine anti-counterfeiting mark".

It's still in Simplified Chinese.

Kailan blurted out: "This is a fake!"

The shopping guide lady's smile immediately became menacing, "Miss, it's fine if you don't buy it, why do you say this valuable antique is a fake?"

Kailan pointed to the big characters on the back of the mask, "Look at this, it's genuine and anti-counterfeiting, who's antiques are specially marked as genuine, in case others don't know it's a fake?"

The shopping guide stared blankly at the words behind the mask, "Excuse me, I don't know this font."

After finishing the transaction, the manager who walked over talking and laughing with Li Ang was a little displeased, "What happened?"

The shopping guide quickly recounted what happened just now.

"So that's the case." The manager looked at Kailan in surprise, and his rating of the two siblings instantly increased by several notches in his heart, and said in a deep voice:
"It's not your fault, it's the 'Secret Language of the Star Palace' that only high-level founders can study! It is said that it is the magical language used by the founder's ancestor to record his understanding of the mysteries of the universe, and basically all high-level founders use it A habit of writing one's own top-secret recipes in a secret language."

The manager laughed again: "No one will know if it's true or not. Anyway, there are many people who study this secret language, but few are proficient in it. Generally, it's high-level founders who put in a lot of effort to study this kind of thing."

Σ(っ°Д°;)っ

Kailan was stunned by the manager's words. Among the five extraordinary systems, the founder of the first line was actually a native of Earth, or a fellow who could speak simplified Chinese?

Cow!

"If that's the case, wouldn't those so-called top-secret secret recipes be completely hard to guard against, or the ones that wash themselves and lie on the bed!"

Kailan was overjoyed, feeling like a hamster that fell into the granary. This is not a world, it is clearly a paradise.

Some doubts, "But why are the formulas left by the original body not written in Chinese? It is super difficult to learn. Could it be that the formulas are too low-level?"

Kailan was a little dumbfounded. The low-level she can make it, but she can't understand the content. The high-level she can understand it, but she can't make it.

It's really empty guarding the treasure mountain, gaining nothing.

The manager said to the shopping guide: "I decide to give this antique to this beautiful lady."

The shopping guide immediately understood, and asked with a look of hesitation: "Do you really want to use the special right that comes only once a month to give away this precious antique in the name of a store?"

"Of course." The manager replied without hesitation.

Gift-giving is also a science, who and how to give it can't be casual.

This item is not of high value, it is indeed a solid antique, and it is engraved with the secret words of the star palace. Miss must be a high-level creator, otherwise, no ordinary person would study that kind of strange and difficult text.

Li Ang knew the elegant meaning of the strings, and immediately started talking with the manager enthusiastically. The manager's action was clearly a signal to communicate more and deepen communication.

In order to help his sister open up a business route, Li Ang had no choice but to show his temper and be courteous with the manager.

The shopping guide lady enthusiastically said: "If you are a creator, please come here with me. There are all kinds of rare materials, magical potions, and original creations. I think you will be interested."

Kailan's eyes lit up, and she nodded quickly. She had used up all the ingredients for the [Dragondove's Eye] potion, and she could just buy some more.

Turning in one direction, the counter here is still full of strange and incomprehensible materials. Without the shopping guide that can be seen everywhere at the main entrance, there is only an old man in grades lazily lying on a chair with his eyes closed.

The old man sensed that someone was coming and didn't even open his eyes, "Look for yourself, you can just take it to the front to check out after you have chosen."

The shopping guide said with a smile: "Lao Lai, this lady is also a founder, so you can take the trouble to receive her in person, isn't this also your rule?"

As soon as he heard the word "Creator", the old man opened his cloudy eyes, his eagle-like eyes seemed to penetrate Kailan, making her feel uncomfortable.

Seeing that Kailan was so young, she immediately lost interest.
