Chapter 159: Kyoto Antique Market

Song Xiaolei is rare to be the same as Liao Yifei, as soon as she saw Bai Guo'er, she immediately fell in love with this beautiful and gentle woman, the three of them chatted very happily, and Zhou Tian went to Liu Shun's side, and the three of them simply chatted at night and put them on bed.

Bai Guoer has not been a child much, there was a Xiao Lili before, and since she broke off with Xiao Lili, she no longer has any friends around.

Then, it was Liao Yifei's appearance, and now there is another Song Xiaolei, which suddenly made Bai Guoer lively.

The three of them were lying on the bed whispering, and they couldn't sleep with the excitement in the middle of the night.

Early the next morning, the three of them had dinner and went out shopping together.

On Sunday, after breakfast in the morning, he received a call from Song Baiyi and asked him and Tao Xiaoshu to go to Song's house for a reunion.

After saying hello to Liu Shun, Zhou Tian took Black Eagle to Song's house, and met Tao Xiaoshu, who had just arrived, at the door.

"Zhou Tian!" Tao Xiaoshu saw Zhou Tian as soon as he got out of the car, "Let's go, let's go in together!"

The old house of the Song family, Zhou Tian is still the first time to come, and the courtyard of the Liu family is almost the same, the courtyard of the three entrances, there are unique bonsai everywhere, so that the already simple courtyard is even more elegant and quiet, at this point, the Liu family and the Tao family are really not comparable.

Walking to the end, the main house of the Song family, after meeting the old man Song, Song Baiyi took the two to his house.

Song Baiyi's house is next to the main house, it is a suite, the larger one outside is all used as a study, and the smaller one inside is the bedroom.

Walking into the house, Zhou Tian saw a wall full of calligraphy and paintings, and two large porcelain jars on the ground, full of scrolls.

A large bookcase has the four treasures of the study room on it, especially the brush, and there are three pen holders, from large to small, with different brushes hanging from large to small.

Zhou Tian was attracted by a few things on the table, especially the inkstone, dark green, oval, with several inscriptions on the edge, looking simple in shape, nothing special, but the rich halo is like substance, and a dark brown dragon head pen holder next to it actually exudes a halo.

"Interested in this?" Song Baiyi asked as he saw Zhou Tian staring at the inkstone.

"Good thing!" Zhou Tian didn't know much about the inkstone, so he could only praise it.

"It's really good eyesight!" Song Baiyi praised, "This is the Tao Yan of the Northern Song Dynasty!" Song Baiyi said.

Zhou Tian was very surprised, although he had not studied inkstones, but he also knew the four famous inkstones: Chengni inkstone, Duan inkstone, She inkstone, Tao inkstone!

Earlier, there was no mud inkstone, but a red silk inkstone.

However, although it is said that there are four famous inkstones, there are not only four types of inkstones, but more than ten kinds.

Among them, due to the relationship between the geographical environment and the material at that time, the Tao Yan of Laokeng has always been owned by royal writers and wealthy businessmen.

It was cut off at the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, so what has been handed down is particularly precious.

I didn't expect Song Baiyi to have a piece here!

Zhao Xihu, a connoisseur of the Northern Song Dynasty, once said in the "Dongtian Blue and Green Collection": In addition to the end and the two stones, only the Taohe green stone, the most precious in the north, green as blue, moist as jade, the ink does not reduce the inkstone under the river, and then at the bottom of the deep water of the big river, it is not caused by manpower, and it is a priceless treasure.

There are also many celebrities who have praised it, which shows how precious it is.

"This is ......" Zhou Tian bent down to look at the inscription on the inkstone, "Ting Jian nodded his head, and he was very ...... to the Yan side"

"That's right!" After Zhou Tian finished reading it, Song Baiyi said, "This inkstone was given to Su Shi when he entered Su Shi's door!"

"Oh......" Zhou Tian sighed.

"Baiyi, I've known you for so long, and I haven't heard you tell you about the origin of this inkstone!" Tao Xiaoshu was shocked.

"You're not interested, and you won't listen to what you say!" Song Baiyi said with a smile.

"I really didn't expect that there was still a Ming Yan that he handed down, I had only heard of a Yan Yan related to him earlier, and it was still a broken inkstone, I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it!" Zhou Tianyi said two times in a row. It is true that Tao Yan is precious, not to mention Tao Yan with Huang Tingjian's inscription!

After seeing this, Song Baiyi let people go to the tea table next to him, chatting while drinking tea, and Zhou Tian also looked around at the calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall.

"Are these all from the hands of Bai Yi?" asked Zhou Tian.

"Yes, but the first few are copied from me, and the rest are my own work. ”

At the top, that is, on the left side of the bookcase, there are four calligraphy and paintings, two calligraphy and two paintings hanging on the wall.

"Isn't this Wang Xizhi's Lan Pavilion Order?" Tao Xiaoshi pointed to the words on the left and asked, "Zhou Tian, look at it, it's enough to confuse the real with the fake!"

Zhou Tian looked over, and sure enough, it was almost exactly the same as the picture on the information he had seen.

"Copying is to imitate a shape, lacking the soul that it should have!" Song Baiyi said.

Zhou Tian agrees with this, after all, it is not the same person.

But the character copied by Song Baiyi has more of Song Baiyi's own things, and he has never seen Wang Xizhi's authentic handwriting, so naturally there is no way to compare.

But it can also be seen from the level of Song Baiyi's calligraphy and painting.

After the three of them talked about Song Baiyi's works for a while, they moved on to the next week's calligraphy and painting festival.

"After Imura Qiandai made a foolish statement, he began to show off the works that were about to be brought to the exhibition, and one of them turned out to be a Buddhist painting in the Tang Dynasty, which was stolen from our country back then!" Song Baiyi said, "but they were ashamed to say that it was their national treasure, and it was given by the master back then!"

"Oh, which master's work is it?" asked Zhou Tian curiously.

There are not many Buddhist paintings in themselves, and in ancient times, there were mostly mural stone carvings, but the paintings were very rare, but the works of the painting saint Wu Daozi were the most precious.

Sure enough.

"Wu Daozi's "Dizang Bodhisattva Lectures on the Appearance of All Living Beings" has no record of it in China!" Song Baiyi said, "It is said that after the Jizo King Bodhisattva made a vow, he chanted the sutra every day in hell, and after all the evil ghosts who fell into hell heard it, some had an epiphany and reincarnated, and some continued to endure suffering! I just don't know what kind of painting the real work will be!"

Looking at Song Baiyi's yearning look, Zhou Tian also felt a little fascinated.

Wu Daozi is known as the "painting saint" during the Tang Dynasty a master of calligraphy and painting, he is good at Buddhism, ghosts, people, landscapes, birds and beasts, plants and trees attics, etc., especially good at Buddhism, figures, good at mural creation!

Since the Tang and Song dynasties, he has been a model for many painters to copy and learn, and has also received high praise, and his achievements are so high that the world admires!

Unexpectedly, Imura Chi would have one of his paintings, and it was a painting that few people knew about in China.

This came as a big surprise.

The domestic departments and masters who got the news began to search for historical records, and they all wanted to find some clues from them to verify the authenticity of the so-called "Dizang Bodhisattva's Lectures on the Faces of All Beings".

Whether it's true or not, it can't be reduced to the ridicule of that arrogant person in country J.

"What about our side, what works are on display?" asked Zhou Tian.

"There are so many of ours, I can't finish talking about it for a while, wait until that day, take a good look!" Song Baiyi said.

"Anyway, there will definitely be a lot of what we can get out that one!" Tao Xiaoshu said.

"Not necessarily!" Song Baiyi said, "If that painting is indeed Wu Daozi's authentic work, and there is no record in China, then it is difficult to say how precious it is!"

"What should I do then?" Tao Xiaoshu also scratched his head a little, he didn't want to lose face in front of that Jingcun.

"It's okay, my old man also took a few Wu Daozi's paintings to the exhibition!

This matter, that's pretty much it, and seeing that there's nothing more to do, I proposed to go to the cultural play market on Sunday.

The idea in his heart was, what if he came across something good? When Song Baiyi and Tao Xiaoshu heard this, they were also very interested, and the three of them went out together and went straight to the Kyoto Cultural Play Market.

Kyoto Cultural Play Market here, Zhou Tian is still the first time to come, not too far from the Song family and the Liu family, separated by two streets, in a very lively alley on the side of the road.

There is actually a large photo wall at the door, which is engraved with the words "Kyoto Antique Cultural Market", which is obviously a later repair.

Bypassing the wall, my eyes suddenly became cheerful, and a large area was divided into two parts.

Some of them are arranged in rows of stalls, and when you look up, there are actually one or twenty rows, and there are many people coming and going in them, which is much more lively than that of Jiangcheng.

The other part is several rows of storefront shops, dealing in antique jade cultural toys and the like.

"This is much more lively than Jiangcheng!" Zhou Tian sighed.

"No, you haven't been here before, but you really shouldn't!" Tao Xiaoshu said, "Let's go shopping first, if you're tired of shopping, go to my shop to rest!"

"Do you have a shop here?" asked Zhou Tian.

"Not only my family, but also the Liu family!" Tao Xiaoshu said, "It's been so long, you don't know? What have you been busy with all day?" haha......

Song Baiyi also smiled, Zhou Tian is really interesting sometimes.

The three of them walked to the stall as they spoke.

"Don't look like it's all stalls here, sometimes you can come across good things!" Tao Xiaoshu said.

"Pick up the leak!"

"Isn't it? Besides, a lot of people come with the intention of picking up the leak!"

"This is different from the cultural and entertainment markets in other places, there are both real and fake, and it depends on the individual's eyesight!" Song Baiyi said.

This Coke is bad for Sunday!

When it comes to picking up leaks, Zhou Tian still thinks that no one is his opponent!

The three of them slowly walked into the range of the stall, and walked in rows, and the Black Hawk was fine, not far behind.

Suddenly, not far ahead, a man seemed to have a high voice, as if he had an argument with the stall owner.

"How can you talk? If you don't want to buy it, you can put it down, okay, you and I are making fun of you!"

"Didn't you say 1,000 before? Turn around and you'll go up to 10,000! Is there anyone you do business?" the man said with a southern accent.

"This is the rule, you like it, let's bargain, one hand of money and one hand of goods, and no one will look for anyone after that!

"Aren't you bullying me for being an outsider?"

"Which eye do you see that I'm bullying you?"

"You're not called bullying?"

"Buy it or not, give it back to me if you don't buy it!"

"Of course I want to buy it, but I want to complain to you if you do this business!"

"Where do you complain, you put things down first!"

Seeing that it seemed that the two sides were about to fight, there were many people around to watch the excitement, and there were also people on both sides who helped each other.

Following the voice, the three of Zhou Tian walked over and saw a young man in his twenties, his face flushed, and he was angrily reasoning with the stall owner.

The stall owner was about forty or fifty years old, dressed in some tattered clothes, with a lewd face on his face, and looked at the young man with a sneer.

Zhou Tian followed what they said, looked at the thing in the young man's hand, and his heart jumped violently.

The young man held a long sword with a sheath in his hand, with a slight arc, and it was about a hundred centimeters connected to the handle.

The brown, blackened scabbard was a little worn, but Zhou Tian could already see the rich aura emanating from this long sword.

And for boys who love swords, they are very familiar with this shape, and it is the famous "demon sword" Muramasa in country J!

It's one of the top 10 famous knives in country J, but I didn't expect to see a real guy at the antique market in Kyoto!
