Because he still had to go to Wanzhen Pavilion to receive the goods, Lin Zheng did not continue chatting with Yazhong Business. After bidding farewell to Yazhong Business, he teleported outside Tiandi City.
"grown ups!"
Just as Lin Zheng took his front foot forward, Fit suddenly called him. Upon hearing this, Lin Zheng looked back at Fit with some curiosity, "What's wrong, Fit?"
But he saw that Feite had a different look on his face and said, "It's about your painting!"
After hearing this, Lin Zheng was stunned for a moment. When he came to his senses, he said to Fitt seriously: "Fit! You can't say those are my words until there is no conclusive evidence!"
Feite laughed in his heart when he heard this. This adult! He really likes to hide his ears and steal the bell! But is this his adult? Resisting the laughter, Feite shook his head and said: "It's not about this issue, it's about the painting.
The hidden secret!"
"Secret?!" Lin Zheng looked surprised, "What's in the scroll?"
"Yes!" Feit nodded and was about to take out the scroll when he suddenly saw pedestrians going in and out of Tiandi City. Seeing her hesitation, Lin Zheng said: "Let's go! We'll talk to the old man later!"
Soon, Lin Zheng and others came to Xu Fu's bun shop. Xu Fu was still so leisurely, lying on the wicker chair, shaking the cattail leaf fan gently in his hand, feeling very contented! Lin Zheng walked forward and said with a smile: "
You old man is the one who knows how to live a good life! Those guys who spend all day doing meditation may not necessarily have much ability!"
Hearing Lin Zheng's voice, Xu Fu, who was sitting on the wicker chair, laughed and sat up, then stretched out his cattail leaf fan and patted Lin Zheng, "You little brat, don't underestimate the world! Everyone has it.
My own way of practice, for me, this old man, is practice, but this way of practice is not suitable for anyone! Before you find your own way of practice, practicing hard in Qingdeng is not considered superior or inferior.
!”
"Hehe! I still know this, but I just can't get used to those guys who don't care about anything for cultivation!" After saying that, Lin Zheng reached out and took out an exquisite crystal wine bottle and handed it to Xu Fu, "Try it.
, this is a special wine brewed by us in Istria, which ordinary people cannot taste!"
"Yo!" Xu Fu's eyes lit up when he heard it, and then he smiled happily; "You have to try this! I have long heard that the drinks in Istria are very good, but I don't have a chance to go there and try them!
"
Lin Zheng smiled after hearing this, "If you like it after drinking it, you can go and get it at any time!"
"No!" Xu Fu said with a smile, "It's one thing for you to take it to honor me, but it's another thing to take it for yourself! Old man, I'm not going to be a disrespectful old man!" After finishing speaking,
He picked up a communication bead and shouted: "Wen Zhong! Boy Yi Ping has brought good wine. If you don't come, I will drink it all!" What about good wine? It's fun to have a drinking companion to judge it.
Well!
As soon as he finished speaking, a black light flew from the direction of Nantianmen. In the blink of an eye, Wen Zhong, who was riding on a black unicorn, flew over. Before landing, he had already laughed and cursed: "You old man! What are you yelling about?
Oh! Don’t you know I’m on duty today?”
After hearing this, Xu Fu said leisurely: "That bad official, it's a good idea to quit! Such a good leader of the Lei Department went to look after the door for others, you don't think it's a shame!"
"I like it! What can you do to me?!" With that said, Wen Zhong turned over and got off the black unicorn.
Seeing the two old men bickering for fun, Lin Zheng also had a smile on his face. After saying hello to them, he came to the side with two buns and sat down. Then he said to Feite: "Let's talk Feite."
, what secrets are there in the scroll?"
After hearing this, Feite took out the scroll and spread it on the table. Lin Zheng was still stunned when he saw the painting again. Why do you think the guy in this painting looks like him?
So similar?! The kid in my hand is smart and cute, but what does the kid look like?!
"grown ups!"
Fit's call made Lin Zheng suddenly come back to his senses, and when he met Fit's helpless eyes, Lin Zheng smiled coquettishly, "Well, what is the secret, Fit?"
Hearing this, Fit reached out and touched the scroll. While stroking the scroll, he said, "I only discovered this secret when I touched the portrait before!"
"How to say?"
"First of all, Your Majesty! This is indeed an antique with a long history!" As he spoke, Fite gently scraped off a little paint from the painting. "In ancient times, the development of paint was far from reaching the current production level.
, so the vast majority of pigments are made from natural products, such as ultramarine made from grinding lapis lazuli. Therefore, when appraising ancient paintings, it is also important to identify them from the selection of pigments.
A more common method!"
Lin Zheng nodded as he listened. Although he knew nothing about the art of painting, he still knew something about the history of the use of pigments! "But what's so strange about this?"
"The subject matter and the composition of the paint are not consistent, my lord!" Feit said seriously, "The lord depicted in the scroll..."
"I've already said it, but I'm still not sure it's me, Feit!"
"Then, the protagonist in the painting!" Feite said while suppressing a smile. "The protagonist's clothing style and the various utensils in the background all show that the real time of creation of this painting should be in the time we are living in.
The time is right! But in our time, almost no one uses natural pigments. First of all, there are relatively few colors. In addition, materials such as lapis lazuli are very expensive, and not all painters can afford them.
Can afford the heavy cost of paint! Therefore, in the circle of painters, there is a customary rule that does not encourage painters to use natural paints. The use of natural materials will to some extent create a trend of comparison in the circle, which is detrimental to the development of art.
Inheritance and development is not a good thing!”
"Then we don't allow people to have whims, or, yes, what about the protagonist's requests?"
"Sir! A painter with character will not change his style easily!" As he spoke, Feite's fingertips began to slide along the lines of the scroll. "And the author of this painting used the simplest lines.
Then he sketched out a family scene, making people feel the warm emotions of the characters in the painting. With such exquisite craftsmanship, he is definitely a famous teacher! Such a famous teacher should naturally know the rules in the painter's circle.
Most likely I will violate it!”
"But you said there's something wrong with the paint in this painting!" Lin Zheng was a little confused when he heard it. Feit was going around and around, but he couldn't even realize what Feit was talking about.
"To put it simply, sir!" Feite looked at Lin Zheng with some humor, "This painting is fake!"
"Fake?!" Lin Zheng stared at him, "This is not a world-famous painting, why is it fake?!"
"Not necessarily, sir! With the artistic content of this painting, I'm afraid that even in Lang Huan Tian's heyday, it would have been a very remarkable work!"
Lin Zheng was speechless. What he said seemed to be true! After all, this painting fell out of the long river of history and fell into the hands of the Langhuan Heavenly Kingdom. Its magical origin was already destined. It was the
There is a very remarkable thing in Langhuan Heaven!
After coming back to his senses, Lin Zheng asked: "Then what? Are there any clues to the authenticity hidden in this counterfeit?"
"If it's genuine, if I'm not wrong, it should be hidden under this painting!" Feite said with mysterious eyes, "Judging from these, the fake painting displayed in front of us is just a means to deceive others.
, but although it is a fake painting, it is very vivid. If the paint and subject style were not wrong, I would not be able to find the problem! Therefore, inferring from this, there should be some very important information on the authentic scroll. In order to
With this information protected, someone forged this fake painting that year!"
Lin Zheng raised his eyebrows when he heard this. Is there a secret hidden in the authentic work? This is really exciting! I don't know what kind of secret is hidden, and it takes so much trouble to hide it!
At that moment, Lin Zheng said to Feite with great interest: "Then is there any way to get the original work out?"
"The easiest way is to wash off the paint covering the surface!" Fite frowned as he spoke, "But even if it is just a forged work, this painting can still be called a masterpiece in art.
It would be a pity to destroy this treasure like this!" The most important thing is that this is an adult's painting! If possible, Feite would like to collect it!
"Oh——! Isn't this boy Yiping?!" Wen Zhong's voice suddenly sounded, but two old men were attracted by them, curiously preparing to see what they were doing.
Wen Zhong held the wine bowl in his hand, with a look of surprise on his face, "Who painted this? It's very good! This is it!"
"It's really good! But there are still some flaws!" Xu Fu said as he tasted the painting. He took a sip of wine and then said with a comfortable expression: "The lines of the characters are a bit rigid. I guess it is not the original work, but a piece of it."
Counterfeit!”
"Old man, you are really discerning!" Lin Zheng said with a smile, "You are right, this is indeed an imitation. According to Fite's point of view, it is just to fool people. The original should be there.
Below this painting! But what Fite is hesitant about now is that this fake is also a very good piece of art, so it would be a pity to destroy it like this!"
After hearing this, Xu Fu laughed and said, "So this is the problem! Okay! Old man, I always drink your wine for free, so it's time to help you out!"
Lin Zheng was overjoyed when he heard this, "Do you have any ideas?"
"This old guy used to paint for a living, but then he stopped painting and switched to painting symbols. He kept painting and painted, and he became a fool!" Wen Zhong said with a teasing smile, "You can say that he is not good at painting.
Son, he spent a lot of effort to copy those famous paintings! Otherwise, how do you think the charlatan's reputation became so bad?"
"Old guy! I gave you delicious food and drinks, but you are still here to slander my image!" Xu Fu laughed angrily, and then looked at Lin Zheng, "Although this old guy has some nonsense
However, old man, I still have some experience in restoring the scroll! If you trust me, old man, then leave it to me!"
"What is there to distrust you, old man!" Lin Zheng said with a smile, and then stretched out his hand, "Come on, old man! It's up to you!"
Xu Fu, who was trusted, touched his beard very proudly. He raised his hand immediately, and with a "bang" sound, another table came over. Then, Xu Fu spilled a pile of yellow paper, and followed the words in his hand.
As soon as the cattail leaf fan shone, the pile of yellow paper merged into everything in an instant, turning into a piece of white drawing paper.
Under the curious gaze of Lin Zheng and others, Xu Fu took out a wine bowl. With a shake of his hand, the liquid in the wine bowl flowed out, and under Xu Fu's control, it evenly covered the scroll. Then,
Xu Fu waved the cattail leaf fan in his hand and fanned it slowly on the painting. As time passed by, the colors on the painting became more and more intense. Seeing this, Xu Fu showed a confident smile on his face.
A few seconds later, Xu Fu quickly covered the painting paper on the other table onto the scroll. The cattail leaf fan in his hand transformed into a brush. With the brush, Xu Fu swept the painting paper carefully.
After a while, the white painting paper showed a blurry image of the scroll. Seeing this, Xu Fu's serious face finally showed a smile. Then, he saw Xu Fu carefully peeling off the painting paper from the scroll, and then
As the painting paper was peeled off, another painting that was different from the previous one finally appeared in front of Lin Zheng and the others!
However, Lin Zheng and the others were not very concerned about the authenticity at this moment. They were more curious about what Xu Fu would do with it next! Because the portrait that was peeled off by the drawing paper was the other way around!
"You still can't understand?!" Xu Fu grinned, then turned the drawing paper over, and twisted his fingers towards the corners of the drawing paper. When Lin Zheng exclaimed, Xu Fu peeled off the thin paper from the drawing paper.
The thin layer, the reversed painting, was completely peeled off! Next, Xu Fu covered the peeled off painting on the drawing paper, and the brush in his hand turned back into a cattail leaf fan, and a warm breeze suddenly burst out.
Then it blew up. Under the blowing of the warm wind, the moisture on the painting gradually dried up. In a moment, the tissue paper adhered to the fake painting floated out with the warm wind, revealing and
The same picture as before!
"How about Yiping boy?" Xu Fu looked at Lin Zheng quite proudly and said.
Lin Zheng didn't say anything, and just clapped enthusiastically. This craftsmanship is so wonderful! In less than five minutes, he perfectly separated the two paintings. He is worthy of Mr. Xu Fu.
He is worthy of being a former charlatan! Well, I wonder how many fake and shoddy products he made with his own craftsmanship?
Xu Fu laughed triumphantly when he heard the applause. After he finished laughing, he said: "Let me see, what is so great about the authentic work that I spent so much time hiding!"
After Xu Fu said this, everyone turned their attention to the original. The content on the original is basically the same as the fake. At first glance, there is almost no difference! However, the signature and seal on the original are basically the same.
, it’s really inexplicably many!
Looking at the plaster-like seals on the scroll, Xu Fu curled his lips in disdain, and Feite's brows also wrinkled.
"There are quite a few such self-righteous guys!" Wen Zhong shook his head helplessly!
"I always think that my artistic accomplishment is so high, I can't wait to taste something when I encounter it, and when I'm done, I'll stamp the messy seal on it, lest others don't know my name!" Xu Fu said with a look on his face.
He said disdainfully, and then his eyes fell on one of the seals, "Huh? Is this the ancient text of Lang Huan Tian! Emperor Lang Huan, it turns out to be that guy!"
"Why does the emperor like to stamp other people's works casually!?" Lin Zheng said quite speechlessly, what kind of virtue has been ruined by ruining a good painting? Those bright red seals look quite...
Dazzling!
"Doesn't this make you look literate?!" Xu Fu said with a teasing smile.
At this time, Feite, who was looking at the scroll, suddenly raised his eyebrows and quickly said to Lin Zheng: "Sir, look here!"
"Which way?!"
"Here!" As he said that, Feite pointed his finger towards the corner of the fairy's skirt. Lin Zheng took a look at it, huh -! There doesn't seem to be anything wrong?!
"You kid!" Wen Zhong looked at Lin Zheng amusedly, "Compare that to the fake!"
After hearing this, Lin Zheng's eyes quickly glanced at the corners of the skirt on the fake. After seeing this, Lin Zheng's expression was stunned. In the original, there were some very light patterns on the corners of the fairy's skirt.
However, these patterns are not depicted on the fake!
"Yeah!" Xu Fu looked at the patterns, frowned and said, "It looks like a map!"
As soon as Xu Fu finished speaking, Feite reached out and touched the patterns, and then said: "They were etched. The edges of the patterns are a bit rough. They should have been etched after they were completed!"
"Interesting!" Wen Zhong smiled with interest, "It seems that this map is not simple to allow Emperor Langhuan to go to such great lengths to hide it! Maybe, this map is pointing to the treasure of Langhuan Heaven.
, having said that, no one has discovered the secrets of Langhuan Heaven until Langhuan Heaven was discovered! Maybe it’s true!”
As the saying goes, the speaker has no intention but the listener has the intention. Wen Zhong's joking remarks made Lin Zheng's heart skip a beat. You must know that Yang Qi still holds the key to the treasure of heaven in his hand. This means that Lang Huan
The treasure of heaven absolutely exists! And that treasure has not been discovered for so many years, which proves that the place where the treasure is hidden is quite hidden and ordinary people cannot find it! If it is said that this is Emperor Langhuan
Are you worried that your descendants will not be able to find the treasure and draw a map? It is completely possible!
