Chapter 432 The Organ Box in the Ancestral House (Part 2)
Chapter 432: The mechanism box in the ancestral house (Part 2)
The house in Li Yang's hometown still has an old-fashioned structure, with three main rooms in the middle and side rooms on both sides. Next to the side room, there is a shed for feeding cows.
Because no one has lived in it for more than ten years, both the main house and the side house are now covered with dust.
Li Junshan often comes back to clean it. The basic furniture in each room is still there. It is Li Junshan's credit that there are no spider webs and rotten wooden strips everywhere, but that can only be done.
The house in Li Yang's hometown is not small. It is larger than the place where they live in the county. There is an open space next to the cattle pen. Li Yang remembers that it was the place where he grew vegetables when he was a child. Now there is only a lonely water pressure well left there.
.
Li Yang suddenly frowned and strode towards the main room in the middle. In front of the main room was the master bedroom, which was the room where Li Yang's grandparents used to live.
The master bedroom only has an old-fashioned wooden bed, and there are some peeling posters on the wall. Underneath the posters is loose wall soil, and a large piece can be removed with one peel.
Just now, Li Yang opened the three-dimensional screen to find a suitable tool to clean the room. Unexpectedly, he unexpectedly found a small wooden box with six layers of aperture in the master bedroom. The six layers of aperture meant that the box was at least three hundred years old.
history.
This box is very delicately made, and is divided into small grids, each with an irregular pattern.
Around the box, there are some images of the Four Saints. The Four Saints are famous auspicious beasts in ancient Chinese legends. They are the green dragon, the dragon, the red bird, and the Xuanwu. The images of the Four Saints drawn around the box are very special.
It is exquisite and painted with good paint. Even after so many years, you can still clearly see the vivid graphics on it.
In addition, the material of this mysterious small wooden box is also very noble. It is the finest golden nanmu. Golden nanmu was used exclusively by the royal family during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Especially during the Qing Dynasty, if anyone among the people used golden nanmu, then
But it is a serious crime to confiscate a family and exterminate a clan.
The biggest feature of golden nanmu is its resistance to decay. The coffins used for the burials of royal family members in the Ming and Qing Dynasties were all made of golden nanmu and could be buried underground for thousands of years without rotting.
Secondly, golden nanmu has a light nanmu fragrance, which can repel insects. In other words, even if things made of golden nanmu are not stored properly, as long as you don't soak them in water all the time, they will be absolutely fine if kept for hundreds of years.
No problem at all.
As early as the late Ming Dynasty, golden nanmu became extremely rare. Nowadays, items made of golden nanmu are even rarer. Almost all those that have been handed down are sealed in museums, and only a handful of people have them.
This type of collection.
Li Yang never expected that when he returned to his hometown this time, he would discover such a good thing, but this was not the reason that surprised Li Yang the most.
Inside the box, there is a small notebook. The paper on the notebook is not damaged in any way. This is probably related to the characteristics of golden nanmu. The items stored in golden nanmu are better than those in other
Places are saved longer.
What surprised Li Yang the most was that the words in this notebook were all words that Li Yang could not understand.
Although he can't understand it, Li Yang is no stranger to this font. Everything written in this notebook is in Japanese. Li Yang has never studied Japanese, but he has watched a lot of TV news, especially some when he was a child**
*Animation, he can’t read these Japanese words wrong.
"Li Yang, why did you suddenly come inside?"
Wang Jiajia followed Li Yang. After entering, he looked at the simple layout of the room curiously, and then asked.
"This is the place where our grandparents lived. I still remember that when I was little, my favorite thing was to pester my grandpa and listen to him tell stories before going to bed!"
Li Cheng walked over from behind, with some emotion on his face. Li Cheng had a much deeper impression of this place than Li Yang. Li Yang had hardly been back to his hometown when he was in elementary school, while Li Cheng had almost never been back to his hometown before he was twelve years old.
All spent here.
When Li Cheng said this, Wang Jiajia stopped talking. Liu Gang followed and just looked around, then stood next to Li Yang.
Fang Shuqin also walked in. She was no stranger to this place. After getting married, she and Li Cheng came here once, once to clean and the other time to get something. She had some things at home that she didn't need and didn't want to throw them away.
All of them will be sent to their hometown.
Fang Shuqin stood next to Wang Jiajia. This very old master bedroom was not big, and it seemed a bit crowded after these few people came in.
Li Yang suddenly walked to the wooden bed in the bedroom. The mysterious small wooden box was hidden in the mezzanine of the bed. Looking at this inconspicuous old-fashioned wooden bed, Li Yang could not imagine that there was something in it.
Such a wonderful treasure.
"Yangyang, is this bed considered an antique now? I remember hearing my grandfather say that it was made when he got married. Judging by the time, it must be at least sixty years old!"
Li Cheng also walked over and said slowly, except for the hard and thick bed board, many other parts of this bed have been damaged. Even if it is old, it is not a good thing. And the bed board is not original.
, Li Yang discovered long ago under the three-dimensional picture that the bed board only has one layer of aperture, and other parts have two layers.
Li Yanggang wanted to shake his head, but his heart moved slightly, and he immediately nodded again: "I remember that my grandfather lived in the house before liberation. If we calculate it according to time, this bed belongs to the Republic of China period. Strictly speaking, it can be regarded as an antique!"
"During the Republic of China, was that really an antique?"
Li Cheng was slightly startled, and others looked at Li Yang in surprise. Among them, Li Yang was the most knowledgeable about antiques. Now that Li Yang has said this, no one else will object.
"Brother, Liu Gang, let's take this bed out and clean it!"
Li Yang turned back and glanced at Li Cheng, who immediately nodded. Wang Jiajia and Fang Shuqin temporarily withdrew. Li Yang and the three of them moved the big bed from the bedroom to the yard with great difficulty.
Fang Shuqin has already taken the initiative to go outside to borrow some water and bring it back. The pressurized water well can still be used, but the water needs to be diverted.
The old house has long been without power, and the only thing that can be used now is probably the pressurized water well in the yard.
The big bed was moved out, and Li Cheng simply moved the few wooden furniture in the old house to the yard. Now that he is here, he will give it a good cleaning, so that his father does not have to come here during the Chinese New Year.
Already.
With water now available, Fang Shuqin went to the supermarket in the village to buy towels and a broom. This time she didn't think about cleaning, so she didn't bring these things.
Wang Jiajia also helped, and the five people quickly cleaned the main rooms. After the side rooms were cleaned, Wang Jiajia finally saw the paintings of Li Yang when he was a child. Although the paintings were very faint, he could still clearly see the paintings on them.
something.
I was very surprised by Li Yang's painter Wang Jiajia. At first glance, I could tell that these paintings were painted by children, but the paintings were realistic and very clear. It can be seen that Li Yang's skills were very good when he was a child.
If he keeps studying, Li Yang might actually become a painter, but if that's the case, they might not have the chance to meet him.
After more than an hour, all the rooms were basically cleaned, and several people sat on the big bed in the yard to rest. Everyone still had a little dust on their bodies.
"Jiajia, thank you!"
Li Yang first said something to Wang Jiajia, with a hint of apology when speaking. It is estimated that Wang Jiajia has not seen such a life for a long time, and her little face just turned into a little flower face.
"When did you become so polite? This is not like you!"
Wang Jiajia shook her head gently, and Li Cheng giggled beside him. He was also very satisfied with his younger brother's girlfriend. In just one day, Wang Jiajia conquered all of Li Yang's family. If Li Yang really wanted to do something
If Wang Jiajia cannot afford to study, I'm afraid his family will be the first to forgive him.
"Brother Li, what is this?"
Liu Gang asked suddenly. The position where Liu Gang was sitting was on the mezzanine of the heavy bed board. There was nothing on the bed board. Liu Gang could see the conspicuous square shape in the middle of the bed board at a glance.
Li Yang raised his head and glanced at Liu Gang in surprise, then lowered his head immediately. He lifted the bed out, and actually wanted to take out the small box inside. But before he could say what he wanted to say, Liu Gang actually asked for him.
come out.
"It looks like it's been cut open!"
Li Cheng also noticed the mark and frowned. When they said this, Fang Shuqin and Wang Jiajia immediately came over.
"It's been cut open, it should be a mezzanine for storing things!"
This time it was Li Yang who spoke. After speaking, he looked under the bed board. Looking from below, there was indeed a part of wood protruding horizontally, which was exactly in line with the square.
"Is the mezzanine the place where treasures are usually hidden on the bed on TV?" Fang Shuqin asked anxiously, with a thick coat of paint on her face.
"It's possible, Liu Gang, try to see if you can pry it open!"
Li Yang nodded, secretly admiring his sister-in-law's imagination, but this time she was really sure that there was indeed a treasure down there, and it was a very good treasure.
"You have watched too many TV dramas. I think this may be the place where grandpa used to keep important items such as passbooks and title deeds. Now these things are gone, so there is no treasure left!"
Li Cheng shook his head and said something to Fang Shuqin. As soon as he finished saying this, he opened his mouth wide and looked at the newly opened bed board with disbelief on his face.
After prying it open, there was indeed a small space inside, and in this space, there was a delicate small box placed squarely.
"Still, there is really a treasure?"
Li Cheng stuttered a little, but Li Yang slowly took out the box. It was the same as what he saw under the three-dimensional screen. It was a very good golden nanmu box, but there was no opening on it. The top of the box was full of
Those densely packed little grids.

I'm not busy today, and I wanted to take advantage of the weekend to have a good breakout, but my heart dropped as soon as I turned on the computer and saw ***'s numbers, there were only three votes.
This basin of cold water was really uncomfortable, and *** did have a great impact on my mood when coding. The chapter that could have been coded in two hours actually took more than three hours to write.
Friends, Xiaoyu will not change his mind. If conditions permit, he will still break out today. I just hope that everyone can use *** to support Xiaoyu and give Xiaoyu enough motivation!
