"How about this? It makes it look like we are filming a science fiction movie. We all feel that we are not here to conduct a treasure appraisal test but to conduct some kind of scientific experiment." Qiao Meng looked around and said.
Baidu said: "In fact, what we do can be called science. Similar to archaeologists, we are appraisers, and they are all a specific professional technology."
Bai Qiutong agreed very much and said: "Xiaodu knows better. I really don't know how he thinks that you can definitely win the world championship. He doesn't even know what he does."
"I……"
Qiao Meng was also at a loss for words. He really didn't know much about the terms of these professions. In the past, he only heard Liu Xiazi say that treasure appraisal is like an art and a craft. Those who are good at it are masters, and those who are not good at it are just ordinary people.
I can be a clerk for the rest of my life.
What kind of scientific and unscientific person has never heard of such an argument? Even God has never said this to him. It is strange that a half-way master like him knows this.
After entering here, they walked through a long passage. There were lights along the way, so it was not dark at all. The air was surprisingly fresh. There was no feeling of impurities in the air like those in underground black markets. It was not as comfortable as outside.
It also makes people feel depressed.
After walking for about five minutes, we came to a relatively empty octagonal space. The way in was also blocked. There was only a door in one direction here. The rest of the place seemed to be blocked. However, every time
A display stand rises in front of one wall, and different objects are displayed on it.
"Isn't it? Is there another appraisal here?" Qiao Meng asked speechlessly.
"Yes, there is only one correct one at the door. You need to identify them one by one. Who comes first?" Bai Qiutong asked.
From now on, their every move has been monitored by the headquarters. The people sitting there are none other than Baidu's wife and his father-in-law.
At this time, Baidu was seen on the screen saying, "I'll go first. I'll pass the test before you this time."
Mengyue saw her husband being so daring to try and forge ahead, and an unabashed smile appeared on her face.
The father behind him nodded and said: "The boy you identified at the beginning seems to be somewhat charming. At least he dares to challenge people who are stronger than himself and does not give up just because he knows the difficulties."
"This is natural, otherwise how could you have easily agreed to let me be with him? You must have been investigating him, right?" Meng Yue said obediently.
"When you suddenly ran home and said you wanted to marry him, I was not very willing. If I hadn't been in contact with his father, I wouldn't have handed over my precious daughter so easily." Mengyue's father
said.
There are only two of them in the control room, so there is no taboo between father and daughter talking. If there are outsiders, they will definitely not communicate like this. They must speak as superiors and subordinates, even if they are the first and second officers respectively.
.
It is true that the Meng family built this place with the consent of the state, but after all, the state will only arrange cooperation when it needs it, and it cannot be overstepped.
At this time, Baidu was very serious about selecting and appraising the treasures. Although Re did not mention a time limit, they all hoped to complete it as soon as possible. This was the safest way.
He first selected the wall in the direction he had just entered and began to examine it. There was a bronze utensil and a small incense burner placed on it.
"The carving of this thing is very unique, the texture looks very primitive, and the color is also very objective." Baidu said thoughtfully.
"But something seems to be obedient. Is there something wrong inside?" Baidu thought, and then asked: "Sister, can I open it and have a look?"
Bai Qiutong replied: "Of course it is possible."
Then Baidu slowly opened the lid. Once he opened it, it was clear at a glance that this was not a real bronze vessel, but a layer of bronze plated on the surface, which was aged using a special method.
But the internal structure is still a bit more complicated after all, so some joint surfaces will reveal areas that are not covered, which are the flaws of the object.
After knowing that this one was not authentic, the whiteness continued to the next item on the right. This was a short dagger, with a sheath attached. It was placed leaning against it like this, and it looked even sharper under the influence of the light.
Baidu actually likes to study ancient weapons, so he was naturally very interested when he saw something like this. "The workmanship of this thing is quite detailed."
And everything from the handle to the blade is perfect, especially the golden dragon carving on the handle is lifelike, and the polishing of the blade is also very unique. It not only looks extremely smooth, but also feels comfortable to the touch."
"How about it, Baidu, is this real?" Qiao Meng asked loudly.
"No." He said firmly.
Bai Qiutong on the side reminded Qiao Meng: "You can't disturb others while they are doing the test. This is the first time I miss you, so I won't do it again."
"I understand." Qiao raised his eyebrows, feeling the strictness here.
Baidu didn't have time to explain why, so he immediately jumped to the next treasure.
In fact, the reason why the dagger just now was judged not to be authentic is not because of its authenticity, but because it says Ming and Qing Dynasties on the stand, but it was clearly made during the Tang Dynasty, as can be seen from the handle.
.
The Ming and Qing Dynasties mainly focused on the firing of porcelain, and there was no such exquisite carving on weapons. Only the so-called Shangfang sword could be engraved with dragon patterns, which could not be seen on other weapons.
Another point is that in terms of the length of the blade, daggers in the Ming and Qing Dynasties were generally shorter. They focused on being better concealed and were used for assassination.
In the Tang Dynasty, the ones in the Tang Dynasty were longer. They were not only used as assassins, but also used by many people for self-defense, or even worn as decorations. Things like this were obviously decorative items given by the emperor to a certain minister.
When he appraised the third item, Mengyue's father, Meng Xiaotian, said with great appreciation: "This kid really lived up to my expectations for him. He is calm, patient and careful. It seems that he will be good this time."
Candidate."
"So, what did you promise me, father?" Meng Yue saw that her father was very happy and asked.
Meng Xiaotian shook his head and had nothing to do with his daughter, and said: "Oh, it's really hard for a woman to stay. She has been speaking for her husband since she came back. Don't worry, as long as he really can't hold on anymore, I won't
It will be difficult."
"But looking at him like this, such a situation should not happen. I also hope that my son-in-law can represent the country in the war. It will be more honorable to make your relationship public in this way."
"Father, don't you have any face now?" Meng Yue said coquettishly.
"Yes, he has reached the height that I really expected, but it's just the beginning. Come on, everyone." Meng Xiaotian said lightly.
While they were talking, Baidu had already reached the fifth item. It can only be said that he seemed to be unlucky. He couldn't find the real door in a row. This level really depends on one's character.
"Yes, this is it, that's right." Baidu suddenly shouted.
Bai Qiutong confirmed again at this time: "Are you sure?"
"nature."
At this moment, the person who managed this level pressed the switch, and the entire octagonal wall space began to rotate, but the place where Qiao Meng and the three of them were standing did not change.
After a while, the wall that Baidu confirmed just now had turned behind the door. At this time, he walked over and a golden key reappeared on the stand. After inserting it into the door hole, something changed again. The door opened, and behind it was
There is a bright passage.
Baidu turned around and said to Qiao Meng, "I'll go over there and wait for you first. You have to hurry up."
"I know, I'll definitely be faster than you." Qiao Meng waved his hand and said.
After Baidu left, the door closed again and the space changed again. It was no longer clear where the real passage was.
"Here comes this kid. The most news I have received this year is about him. He is said to be some kind of divine talent who has broken many records of his predecessors. I don't know if it is true or not. The most exaggerated one is the one who uncovered the frame.
The speed is a little hard to see through. Even though he is the national champion, we still have to see how he performs next." Meng Xiaotian said.
Meng Yue said more confidently: "I think he may be the most surprising in this session. I have seen a lot of his identification methods. It can be said to be extremely fast, but the accuracy is also extremely precise.
."
"Oh, is it really so magical? Then I want to take a closer look." Meng Xiaotian nodded and said.
At the same time, Bai Qiutong said to Qiao Meng: "It's your turn, let's start. I'll tell you quietly that the timer will now officially start."
Feeling her soft breath in his ear, Qiao Meng couldn't help but shudder, "Don't worry, it's only eight items, one minute."
Now that he's here, Qiao Meng naturally doesn't plan to hide it anymore. What he wants is a master anyway. How can people know that he is a master if he doesn't show it? Anyway, it can save a lot of trouble.
"How is it possible? Don't be ridiculous, unless the first thing you choose is the real thing."
Bai Qiutong expressed extreme disbelief. This has never happened before. No matter how lucky you are, you still struggle with the first thing for two or three minutes before you can be sure. The things here are much more difficult to distinguish than the entrance exam.
"Then just watch. If you have a watch, time it." Qiao Meng said.
Then Bai Qiutong really rolled up his sleeves, looked at his watch, and said, "Let's get started."
Qiao Meng ran out quickly, but he had better luck. He found out the second piece was genuine. Just to create an effect, he touched all eight pieces to one side. After returning to the original place, he said, "The second piece
."
"Are you...are you sure?"
"Of course." Qiao Meng also answered the same thing as Baidu.
Then the door opened like this, so fast that Mengyue and Meng Xiaotian in the main control room were unable to recover.
Fortunately, Meng Xiaotian had experienced a lot of weird things and was the first to react and said: "Is this guy really a god?"
"I don't know either. This is the first time I've seen him. In fact, he already found the correct target in the second incident, which means it took less than ten seconds." Meng Yue looked at the screen blankly and said.
