Chapter 352 The first person from ancient times to the present
"Teacher Cai, does this Dragon God Tiger Inkstone have any other characteristics?"
Mr. Zhou frowned slightly. He had only seen that the dragon and tiger pattern carvings were masterpieces, but he did not think about the Shenlong Shenhu inkstone. Although the Shenlong Shenhu inkstone was really regarded as the representative work of She inkstone, it was
It has been lost for a long time, and there are too many myths and legends, so that no one believes it anymore.
However, of all the people here, I am afraid that only Mr. Zhou has heard of these legends before. The others, including Mr. Mao, are not sure about it. It is true that people who love antiques often listen to stories and tell stories, but the stories must also be reliable.
I just listened to it. This kind of story about gods and ghosts is okay in "Liao Zhai", but no one would believe it in antiques.
"It has some characteristics. I also learned about it accidentally. I have a deceased elder who loved ancient inkstones the most in his life. There are many ancient records of ancient inkstones in his place. I have read some, and there is one article.
The various special features of the Shenlong Shenhu Inkstone are described in detail, so I want to try it!"
After hearing that Teacher Cai said it was a deceased elder, everyone stopped asking. It would be very rude to continue asking. For them, how to prove that the ancient inkstone in front of them is the dragon and tiger inkstone is the most important. As long as Teacher Cai can prove it
Just fine.
The staff at Juyazhai were very fast. In less than ten minutes, they brought over everything Teacher Cai wanted. Juyazhai already had all the things Teacher Cai wanted.
"Bring the basin and there's water!"
Teacher Cai poured the pure water into the basin, and used a small handkerchief that he brought with him to lightly dip some water into the ancient inkstone to clean it. The inkstone is made of stone, and it needs to be cleaned when used.
If it has not been cleaned for a long time, it cannot be soaked in water all at once, as this will cause some damage to the inkstone.
After wiping the entire square of ancient inkstones, Teacher Cai slowly dripped water drops on it, and let the water droplets flow into the trash can bit by bit.
As soon as the water droplets passed by the inkstone, they fell down drop by drop, just like sliding on a smooth glass plate.
After many times of wiping and cleaning, the impurities on the outer layer of the ancient inkstone seemed to have been cleaned away, revealing the inkstone as dark as ink. This simple pitch black color once again surprised everyone.
The material of the ancient inkstone is stone. The longer it is, the darker the color will be. The color of the ancient inkstone is darker now, but it has not lost its bright luster. This alone is enough to surprise people.
Teacher Cai seemed a little excited. After washing it, he soaked the entire inkstone in water.
Everyone couldn't help but put their heads over it. Once the inkstone entered the water, it showed another sense of clarity, especially the two carvings of a dragon and a tiger, which seemed to move after entering the water.
At this time, everyone was silent. No matter how stupid you are, seeing everything in front of you, you will know that this ancient inkstone is not simple. Even if it is not a dragon or tiger inkstone, it is a very exquisite ancient inkstone. Li Yang spent more than 3,000 yuan.
Absolutely great value.
After soaking for a few minutes, Teacher Cai took the ancient inkstone out of the water, placed it in the palm of his hand and watched it carefully.
After a while, Teacher Cai wiped the entire body of the ancient inkstone clean. The cleaned ancient inkstone was black and simple, with a different kind of classical beauty.
Teacher Cai nodded, took the ink from the table, and carefully placed it in the inkstone.
There were no tools for sharpening ink at the scene, and Teacher Cai didn't find anything else, so he just shook it gently with his fingers.
The dragon and tiger carvings were right next to the flat place where the ink was placed. After the ink swayed inside, everyone in Zhouzhou immediately opened their eyes wide, staring at the inkstone in front of them as if they had seen a ghost.
As the inkstone filled with ink shook, the two carvings next to it seemed to come alive, with the dragon tumbling and the tiger jumping.
Viewed from different angles, these two carvings have different changes. The dragon scales on the dragon's body seem to become brighter. Even the dragon ball in the dragon's mouth is faintly rotating, and it is possible to spit out the dragon ball and roar to the sky at any time. .
The sharp claws of the tiger actually give people a feeling of being so bright that they dare not look directly at it. Whether it is a dragon or a tiger, the whole body is filled with a bright black brilliance, which is lifelike.
Bai Ming also squeezed his *** eyes hard. As long as the ink swayed, the bodies of the dragon and tiger really seemed to be moving. Moreover, the movements were different every time, and every movement he saw was different. Same. But as long as the ink stops, the dragon and the tiger will also stop, as if they have never moved at all.
"The dragon flies over the clouds, the tiger leaps over the stream, the rumored dragon soaring and the tiger leaping over is indeed true. Now I can basically confirm that this is the legendary dragon and tiger inkstone!"
Teacher Cai sighed heavily. At this time, no one doubted Teacher Cai's words. Such a magical effect appeared here. Even if this is not the Shenlong Shenhu Inkstone, it is not much different.
"The rumors about dragons rising and tigers leaping, dragons and tigers inkstones are true!"
Mr. Zhou's expression was also a little excited. In fact, there are many rumors about many treasures in China, especially those lost things, but some effects have never been seen by everyone. Just like the Moon Shadow Lamp and the Immortality Bowl, they cannot be seen. Rumors turned into legends, and coupled with some exaggerated mythical propaganda, no one believed in such a magical effect.
Only when people actually see it can they believe it and truly know how great our ancestors were.
"The dragon flies over the clouds, the tiger leaps over the stream, Teacher Cai, how on earth do you do this?"
Bai Ming's face was full of admiration, and his expression was a bit complicated. Such a magical effect could not be produced by modern inkstones, let alone ancient ones.
"I'm not sure about this, but according to records in ancient books, there are actually many small hollow holes under the dragon and tiger carvings. When grinding ink, the ink will enter these small holes, and then such a magical effect will appear. As for the specifics What is the reason? Only after careful research can we know it!"
Teacher Cai said with a wry smile, and then looked at Li Yang enviously. This ancient inkstone actually has another effect. When you rub it on a rainy day, not only will there be a wonderful scene of dragons and tigers leaping, but also a faint appearance of dragons and tigers. Bai Wu, but it is a sunny day now. This can only be done after Li Yang goes back and gives him a chance to try.
After listening to Teacher Cai's words, Li Yang suddenly remembered that he had discovered those small holes under the three-dimensional picture. The thicker ones were only as big as the tip of a chopstick, and the thinner ones were not even as big as the eye of a needle. These small holes were under the dragon and tiger carvings. There were so many. At first, Li Yang thought it was because of the poor quality of the stone, but he didn't expect it to be the key to causing the dragon to soar and the tiger to leap.
"They must have used some techniques that we couldn't think of. I really don't understand why most of the ancient people's wise inventions are gone now?"
Mr. Mao shook his head and sighed. Everyone looked at each other with a hint of bitterness on their faces.
The reason why ancient wisdom and inventions were lost is not because of feudal thinking. Not to mention that time, there are still many people who hold the same idea today. Craftsmanship is passed down from family to son but not from daughter to daughter.
However, it is not that no ancient wisdom achievements have been preserved in ancient times, such as compasses, gunpowder, etc. These things that are extremely common to modern people, if they were preserved and lost at the beginning, would now become amazing 'miracles'.
"What a pity. How could such a good thing be a useless thing?"
Mr. Zhou suddenly shook his head vigorously, with a look of regret on his face. Teacher Cai looked similar to him. This is the Shenlong Shenhu inkstone, Tang Tangyin's favorite treasure, and it ranks among the top ten famous inkstones in China's history.
It's not an exaggeration, but it's a pity that it's so damaged. The remaining items will affect the value of the item after all.
"Mr. Zhou, it actually doesn't matter. The meaning of this treasure has exceeded its own value. Even if it is a broken weapon, it is still a priceless treasure!"
Manager Cui sighed softly. Although he said this, you can tell from his expression what he really thinks in his heart. I am afraid that at this time he is also regretting this ancient inkstone that can definitely become a national treasure. The damaged thing is just
Just like a girl has a scar on her face, she is no longer perfect.
Li Yang's heart moved, and he hurriedly took out the two fragments and said, "Teacher Cai, I don't know if such an ancient inkstone can be repaired. I have two fragments here, which were taken from this ancient inkstone!"
As soon as Li Yang took out the fragments, Teacher Cai hurriedly took them over and compared them on the ancient inkstone. The longer the comparison lasted, the more distressed they seemed.
"Brother Li, this thing didn't break in your hands, right?"
Bai Ming screamed with great regret, and shook his head vigorously while shouting. The expressions of several other people were similar, with expressions of regret, grief, and other expressions.
Li Yang stayed for a while, thought about it, and then understood, and immediately shouted loudly: "Teacher Bai, you misunderstood. These two fragments were originally stained on the two carvings. I bought them after I got them home."
That’s it after discovery and revelation!”
Li Yang's voice was still a little aggrieved. Bai Ming and Teacher Cai were stunned, but the complex expressions on their faces were gone.
They had the same idea as Bai Ming just now, thinking that this ancient inkstone was damaged in Li Yang's hands. That would be a pity. Although it belongs to Li Yang, it is also the wealth of the country and the people who damaged it will be punished.
Became a sinner.
"You didn't explain it clearly. You said you took it from above. We thought, we thought..."
Bai Ming scratched his head and was speechless at this point. Fortunately, he asked just now. Otherwise, if this misunderstanding really existed, Li Yang would be even more unjust than Dou E.
"Actually, we care too much about it, and no one wants to think about it. If this ancient inkstone was really good, could Li Yang buy it for more than 3,000 yuan? Also, the people in Rongbaozhai have such bad eyes.
, OK, can Li Yang still pick this leak up?"
Mr. Zhou knocked on the table and said slowly. Everyone couldn't help but nodded along. Concern caused confusion. In addition, Li Yang didn't explain it clearly. It just caused such a small misunderstanding. Now that it's open, everyone
They all felt a little embarrassed.
Manager Cui rolled his eyes. It was not a trivial matter for Li Yang to pick up a leak in Rongbaozhai. This matter seemed to be something that could be exploited. The colleagues were enemies. If there was an opportunity to suppress the opponent, I believe no one would let this happen.
Chance.
It's a pity that Manager Cui didn't know that this was actually the second time Li Yang picked up the leaked moonlight lamp in Rongbaozhai. Only a few people knew about the moon shadow lamp that was picked up the first time and it was not spread. If Manager Cui knew about the leaked leak in the previous time,
If anything, people would definitely be stunned. Li Yang is the first person from ancient times to the present who can pick up leaks in Rongbaozhai twice in one year.
