Chapter 277: Zhan Lu Sword
Coming out of Liu Hui's small workshop, Hu Yang only carried the long sword that had no scabbard and was rusty. Although Liu Hui was strange in his heart, he didn't ask much.
In this way, half a day's work passed, and through the live broadcast of Populus euphratica, everyone also saw the traditional casting method of Longquan sword. I also understand that now the traditional production method is gradually being eliminated, and perhaps in another ten years, the sword casting process of 100% traditional blood will be lost.
Although it is a pity, everyone also knows that this is the inevitable development of history, and it is very normal for new things to be born and old things to die out.
"Xiao Hu, ...... this sword" Father Ye, who didn't understand, finally couldn't help but ask, looking at the rusty sword in Hu Yang's hand.
Others were curious, including the audience in the live broadcast room.
A rusty iron sword can actually get Brother Hu's attention, it's not as simple as it seems!
Hu Yang grinned, looked at the long sword in his hand, and couldn't help but slap the telephone pole next to him with the blade of the sword. I saw that the rust on the sword body was peeling off one by one, revealing the jet-black sword body.
In addition, you can see various mysterious patterns on the sword body.
Ye Ping and her parents looked at the black sword with a greatly changed appearance in amazement, although the color was not eye-catching, and there was no brilliance, unlike the flickering sword light of some swords, but the whole sword gave people a calm and restrained feeling.
"What kind of sword is this?" asked Lao Wu as he touched it with his hand.
Hu Yang hurriedly avoided: "Be careful, this sword should be very sharp." ”
After speaking, he looked at a half-meter-large stone on the side of the road, held a black sword, and slashed at the stone.
This move frightened everyone, and the audience in the live broadcast room was no exception. Even if you want to try your edge, you don't need to chop stones!
However, the next scene left everyone stunned.
I saw that the stone was split in half, and the cutting surface was very smooth, almost like a stone cutter cut out.
With this effect, you can see the sharpness of this sword. Of course, it can also be seen that Brother Hu has a lot of strength. Without enough strength, no matter how sharp your sword is, it is impossible to split in half.
Lao Wu retracted his hand suddenly, feeling as if his cold hair was about to stand up, and his heart palpitated.
Fortunately, I didn't touch it just now, and if I accidentally touched the blade, I would see blood.
"it!"
"Terrible! Is it so perverted? It's hard to imagine what it would be like if it fell on people. ”
"This is the real sword! After so many years, it is still as sharp as clay. The sword-casting process of the ancients really makes modern people feel ashamed. ”
"I guess it's a famous sword! I don't know what kind of sword there was in ancient times, it was black. I think it's tungsten added, so it's black and hard. ”
……
The audience in the live broadcast room couldn't help but think of what Brother Hu said earlier, in ancient times, the sword was not just a weapon, but a culture.
Since ancient times, China has had a very superb sword-casting technology, and the sword culture has a very long heritage in China. This embodies the ingenuity of the ancients and the feelings of chivalry, and along with the birth of the famous sword, there are many very heroic stories.
Just like the sword in front of you, the sharpness, I'm afraid that even with today's science and technology, it is difficult to create such a sharp sword, right?
Populus did not speak, and the position of the handle was wrapped in a layer of unknown animal skin, so it was comfortable to hold the sword.
He tore off the hide, and after so many years, the hides have changed, and it is not difficult to tear them apart.
There were no animal skins, and everyone saw two characters carved on the hilt of the sword, but the text seems to be very old, and many people can't tell what it is.
However, everyone can see from Brother Hu's happy face that it must be a very famous sword in history.
Among the ancient swords existing in China, I am afraid that the most famous is the Goujian sword, right? The national first-class cultural relics have not been damaged in the slightest for thousands of years, and they are still as sharp as the sword in front of them.
"Brother Hu, what is this word?" Ye Ping asked curiously.
Hu Yang explained: "This is the Yue script of the Warring States Period, the script of the Yue Kingdom. ”
He told everyone that after the Yin Shang oracle bone inscription and the Western Zhou and Spring and Autumn Jin inscriptions, the development of Chinese characters reached the Warring States Period, which began in the fifth century BC, and there was a great change.
This is mainly due to the fact that the vassal states are independent and do not belong to each other, and the centralized power of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty has almost been lost.
"As you know, it was not until the Qin Dynasty unified the whole country that the script began to be unified, which is what we call seal script. The seal script is actually relatively close to our traditional Chinese characters today.
These two words, if I'm not mistaken, should be Zhanlu. ”
As soon as Hu Yang's voice fell, the live broadcast room was already fried. Someone has studied ancient famous swords, how can they not have heard of the Zhanlu sword?
The sword in front of him, the jet-black sword body, is exactly the same as in the legend.
"Zhan Lu, is he famous?" someone in the live broadcast room couldn't help but ask weakly.
"Tsk, elementary school students, go back to your homework, don't watch the live broadcast. Zhanlu is one of the top ten ancient swords in our country, and it is very high-ranked. ”
"Ou Yezi, the most famous sword of the famous swordsmith, what do you say?"
"Zhan Lu Sword, isn't that a sword in a mythical story, how can it be true?"
"Haha! Actually, the Zhan Lu Sword is not fiction, it does exist.
Legend has it that during the Warring States Period, Li Mu, a famous general of Zhao State, Zhou Chu, a famous general of the Jin Dynasty, Xue Rengui, a famous general of the Tang Dynasty, and Yue Fei, a famous general of the Anti-Jin Dynasty, had been equipped with this sword. Since Yue Fei Fengbo Pavilion was killed, there is no longer a legend of Zhanlu Sword. ”
"A lost national treasure again?"
"Brother Hu is awesome, how many lost national treasures are these?"
……
Someone couldn't help but check it and found that the popularity of this ancient famous sword was indeed very high, and it was real, but after the Northern Song Dynasty, there was no more news.
Unexpectedly, it was discovered today, and it was discovered in such a situation.
There is no doubt that this will be a national treasure, no less than the Goujian Sword.
Everyone couldn't help but be amazed, the ancient Yue Kingdom was really rich in famous swords. Goujian Sword is the sword of King Yue, and this Zhan Lu is also the famous sword of Yue Kingdom.
In addition, there are also famous swords such as the Seven Star Longyuan Sword, Juque, Shengxie, Fish Intestine, Chunjun, Tai'a, Gongbu, etc., all of which are the works of the sword-casting master Ou Yezi. And Ou Yezi is a native of Yue, so almost all of the above-mentioned famous swords can be regarded as coming from Yueguo.
Although it has not been confirmed that the sword in front of you is the Zhanlu sword in history, everyone looks at the sharpness of the sword and the words on the hilt, and there should be no mistake in guessing roughly.
"According to the records, the sword should have had a scabbard. Unfortunately, the scabbard was not found. Hu Yang said.
Legend has it that this is a gentleman's sword, quiet and kind, and never shows its edge at will. But Zhanlu is out of the sheath, but it is indestructible, and the iron is like mud.
It symbolizes benevolence, righteousness and morality, when Ou Yezi cast this sword, he actually stroked the sword and shed tears, lamenting that he had finally completed a divine soldier in his life, a sharp sword without the slightest murderous aura.
"This sword should be very valuable, right?" Ye Ping couldn't help but ask.
Hu Yang nodded, and then shook his head again: "It's very precious, but no one knows how much it's worth, and it may be difficult to measure it by price." This sword is no worse than the Goujian sword in value, or even higher. The Goujian sword has long been a national first-class cultural relic, and it is strictly forbidden to leave the country. ”
No one has put such a national treasure up for auction, so I don't know how much it is worth.
"Ancient swords, the auction market has also appeared, ranging from hundreds of thousands to millions. This Zhan Lu sword, as well as the Goujian sword we mentioned earlier, I think it can refer to the value of the world's famous swords.
For example, the royal gold saber of Napoleon, the god of war, was once auctioned for a high price of 6.5 million US dollars.
Famous knife series, there are also very high auction records in China, such as Emperor Qianlong once ordered the Ministry of Internal Affairs to design and produce a series of golden peach skin sheath waist knives of heaven, earth and people.
The 90 waist knives were made from the thirteenth year of Qianlong and finally completed in the sixty years of Qianlong, which were divided into 4 batches and lasted 47 years. Among them, there are a total of 30 Tianzi golden peach skin sheath waist knives, which are Tianzi No. 1 to Tianzi No. 30.
Most of them are collected in the Forbidden City, and the only one circulating in the market is a Tianzi No. 17 Proton waist knife, but it is such a knife, which was auctioned for 48.3 million yuan at the 2012 Guardian Autumn Auction. ”
The sky-high price of nearly 50 million has refreshed everyone's understanding of the value of ancient famous swords.
In other words, the thirty Tianzi waist knives made by Qianlong are worth almost 1.5 billion?
And Ye Ping's parents have long been stunned, especially Ye Ping's mother. At the beginning, when the girl introduced Xiaohu to her, she said that Xiaohu earned more than 100 million yuan a month, and she felt that this was pure bragging.
However, now it seems that the matter of one or two treasures is not difficult for Xiao Hu.
When luck comes, if you come across two or three such national treasures, you can earn more than 100 million yuan a month at any time, right?
It's a pity, it's a pity, I don't know which girl is cheaper.
Subsequently, they had a meal and continued to wander around for an afternoon, allowing everyone to see several other traditional handicrafts in Longquan. Some brothers in Zhejiang discovered that there are still so many traditional cultures in Longquan, and some of them can no longer find successors, so it can be said that they may be lost at any time.
When he sent Lao Wu back, and then returned to Ye Ping's house, Hu Yang received countless phone calls, some he knew and some he didn't know, all of them came for Zhan Lu Jian.
Among them, there were President Fang and others, who were very interested in Zhan Lujian's information, and President Fang even said that he would rush to Longquan immediately to meet Hu Yang.
The meeting is secondary, and the main thing is to confirm whether it is Zhan Lu Jian or not.
If it is confirmed, the status of King Goujian of Yue may have to accept the challenge.
You must know that before this, the so-called first sword in the world was the Goujian sword.
