Chapter 175: Clue or Purpose?

The owner of this stall is obviously not the same as the owner of the surrounding stalls, others are trying their best to shout, trying to keep the visitors, but he is different, with an attitude of ignoring it, as if he is not selling goods, but looking for people who know the goods.

Seeing Zhuo Feng and them stopping, the man said again: "Just now, I saw you choosing stones, not touching or touching them, but just looking at them, you can see at a glance which ones are Gobi stones and which ones are mixed stones, which can be seen that this eyesight is extraordinary." So I have a few other items here that I just picked up from the sea, I wonder if my brother would like to take a look?"

Zhuo Feng was taken aback, he couldn't imagine that this person had been observing himself since he came to this stall to pick stones.

Zhuo Feng smiled slightly, stepped forward and said: "The stones sold by the boss are all high-quality products, and it seems that the boss also has a unique vision and a unique eye when choosing." Why didn't you object to me when you gave you two hundred dollars when you held out your two fingers? โ€

"Good treasures know good masters, in the eyes of different people, the angle of viewing, the value is different, why must we be with the other party to pay the value of the pound. Besides, if you offer a low price for a stone, doesn't that mean that other objects you like are also low?"

The man did not refute Zhuo Feng's words, and said with certainty that Zhuo Feng would definitely be very interested in the objects he was going to see.

Zhuo Feng became interested when he heard this, but he didn't show it, he squatted down again, and pulled among the stones.

"These Gobi stones are very beautiful, very unique, and the colors are also very beautiful and dazzling, is there something very special in them?"

"Hehe, little brother, don't make fun of me. The other strange treasure I'm talking about is not in these stones. If you're really interested, come with me. โ€

As he spoke, the man wrapped the blanket in which the stones were placed, gathered the corners, crumpled them into a mess, put them in a large bag, and got up and walked inside.

Every stone in it is a beautiful stone with strong ornamentation, but this person treats it so casually, which makes Zhuo Feng and them very puzzled.

Hurriedly asked Liu Sheng to find Chen Xiaoyan and Hanwa, and then everyone followed behind the man and came to a tent.

It is all a place to rest, most of the people buy and sell goods in the market, and there are not many people walking around here.

A few minutes later, the man took out an object from the tent, looked around for a while, took the cover on it, and handed it to Zhuo Feng for them to check.

Bronze wine glasses?

A three-legged bronze wine lord to be exact.

The information I saw in Chen Yucai's study has the introduction of this three-legged bronze wine jue, and it is also equipped with an inset picture, but the shape of the wine jue on it is the same as a bird, with a stream in front, like a finch peck, a tail in the back, and a slender foot under the abdomen.

But the shape of the three-legged bronze wine lord in front of him is not a bird, but more like a dragon with its mouth sprayed with water stains. What is even more unique about this wine jue is that the dragon-shaped structure is still inverted: the opening of the abdomen is a stream, and the head of the dragon is bent into a tail, which becomes a wine handle. The dragon's body is rough and fat, but the dragon's head is unusually slender, which is very inconsistent with the ancient imaginary image of the dragon as a divine beast.

As soon as the consciousness was turned on to examine the three-legged bronze wine lord, rows of information came into view:

"Three-legged bronze wine jue, during the Han Dynasty, one of the wine vessels used in the sacrifice of heaven and earth in the Dayue clan (yuรจzhฤซ) country, combined with drinking vessels such as ่งฅ and ่งฏ. It is used by the royal teachers of the great countries and is used for special ceremonies and sacrifices, which is rare in the world. The carved wine jue is a pair, one is a dragon and the other is a tiger, which means that the national teacher is the loyal servant of the tribal leader and enjoys supreme glory and power...... It has survived for about 2100 years, and the national super-grade cultural relics ......"

Zhuo Feng frowned when he saw this information.

Chen Xiaoyan saw that Zhuo Feng didn't react at all after watching it for a long time, so she stepped forward and said, "What's wrong?"

"Look at it. Zhuo Feng handed over this three-legged bronze wine lord to Chen Xiaoyan.

Chen Xiaoyan took it and took a look, this wine jue is dark green, but there is no rust spot, the upper hand is slightly heavy, every place is carved very carefully, the level of invention, the dragon head wine handle is a must, vivid, hold the wine handle, but there is no uneven balance, the design is just right, with the three-legged center of the control point, the wine jue is proportional and symmetrical, I can't imagine that the ancient literature and art are so perfect, Chen Xiaoyan can't help but marvel in her heart.

"This is a sacrificial wine vessel?" Chen Xiaoyan said.

Zhuo Feng nodded.

"Amazing, I didn't expect this girl to have a good eye. You're right, this is a sacrificial wine vessel dedicated to the countries of the Western Regions of the Han Dynasty. The boss took over and said.

"I can't imagine that the boss is still an expert, who understands antiquities?" Liu Sheng said on the side, "Isn't it just a bronze wine glass? โ€

"This little brother is clumsy. The man pointed at Liu Sheng and said: "I, Yuan Mazi, have been digging sand in this desert for 20 years, and no one has said anything about me, you kid is the first person." โ€

Liu Sheng was taken aback, he didn't expect that this person still had a background, and he was so mysterious, it turned out to be a professional treasure digging expert.

"Brother Yuan misunderstood, I'm just joking. Liu Sheng said with a hippie smile.

Listening to this person's self-proclaimed Yuan Mazi, Chen Xiaoyan carefully looked at this lean person, about 1.68 meters tall, very strong, except that his skin was scorched by the sun for a long time and became dark and shiny, there were really a few beans on his face, but they were not too conspicuous, which was very different from the people he had seen with pockmarks on his face before.

"Brother Yuan, right, do you want to make a move?"

Chen Xiaoyan asked, this person doesn't talk much, and the exit is not mysterious and points to the subject, which is very weird.

"I found this wine jue a few months ago in a receding sea, but there are no other items around, and according to the items I have brought out after observing this sea in the past, it is impossible to find only one object. But in the months that followed, I didn't find any other information about the moving sea, so I wanted to find a group of companions to go back to the route where the sea was moving. Of course, there is a reward. โ€

Yuan Mazi directly indicated the theme.

Before Zhuo Feng could speak, he said: "Of course, the companion I am looking for is also conditional, that is, a person who has a deep understanding and insight into antiquities, is willing to pay, can be obedient, has perseverance, and has endurance. โ€

Zhuo Feng and Chen Xiaoyan looked at each other and smiled, they couldn't imagine that they had come to this desert to explore the ancient tombs of the archaeological team, and now they were hired as helpers.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, we have other things to do, and we may not be able to go with you. Zhuo Feng directly refused.

"Just now you were in the market, you didn't take the initiative to pick out the items, and the other went back and forth to observe the people who were selling the goods, if I guessed correctly, the purpose of your trip to this market is to find people, right?"

Yuan Mazi said again.

Zhuo Feng was startled and hurriedly pulled Chen Xiaoyan aside.

"This person is not simple, he can see at a glance our ability to identify antiquities, and he can see through the purpose of our trip, maybe he can really join his plan to find Haizi, what do you think?"

Zhuo Feng asked.

"Tell me first, the three-legged bronze wine lord he said just now, right?"

He was only half right, this three-legged bronze wine jue was indeed a wine vessel used for sacrifices in this ancient country of the Western Regions, but he didn't know which ancient country of the Western Regions it was. โ€

"Your special ability can even detect which country this antiquity belongs to?" Chen Xiaoyan was surprised.

"Well, this three-legged bronze wine jue is a wine vessel used by the national teacher of the Dayue clan during the Han Dynasty to carry out some mysterious sacrifices, which is a special thing for this national teacher, which is rare in the world. After the death of this national teacher, those sacrificial utensils were buried together as funerary items. And these three-legged bronze wine lords are still a pair, and we are now looking at a dragon shape, and a tiger shape. โ€

Zhuo Feng roughly explained the information he saw to Chen Xiaoyan.

"This time, due to the movement of the sea of sand, it may have touched the location of the ancient tomb, causing it to collapse or something else, so the sand particles drove this object out of it, so that it was found by this Yuan Mazi. โ€

When Chen Xiaoyan heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up.

"You say, did Jiao Yaohou also use this dragon vine to explore the ancient tomb of this Great Moon Clan's national teacher?"

was reminded by Chen Xiaoyan, Zhuo Feng also immediately figured it out, these two things may be related?

If it's really related, isn't it really "stepping on iron shoes and finding nowhere to go, and it takes no effort to get it"?

I was just thinking about how to follow the route of the archaeological team next, and now I knew its ultimate goal and destination, didn't it save me a lot of time and energy?

"It's also possible, but we can't get our hopes up, and we can't trust others with just one object and a few words. I don't think about the danger to my own life, but I also think about the danger to everyone's life. Zhuo Feng said.

"Well, I'm just telling my guess, not necessarily for you to make a decision right away. Otherwise, let's discuss it first and then make a decision, how about it?" Chen Xiaoyan didn't expect Zhuo Feng to think about this, and was moved.

When the two came back, Liu Sheng had already had a hot chat with Yuan Mazi.

"Ah, I can't imagine that Brother Yuan's life experience is so surprising and exciting, I really want to come to this desert to explore treasures. If Brother Yuan wants to accept apprentices, you can consider me, my brain is bright. Liu Sheng said with a smile.

Seeing Zhuo Feng and them turn back, they hurriedly said to Zhuo Feng: "This Brother Yuan has found more than a dozen or hundreds of antiquities in this desert, and now Brother Yuan has taken this behavior as a hobby, called life limit exploration." โ€

After Zhuo Feng heard this, he glanced at Liu Sheng: "These antiquities were originally to accompany the deceased after the burial, why should we disturb the ancestors, wouldn't it be better to let these antiquities stay where they should be?"

"This little brother, I don't agree with your statement. As soon as Zhuo Feng finished speaking, Yuan Mazi came forward to oppose it and continued: "The ancients made this piece of beautiful treasure because they wanted future generations to remember it. But now that these treasures are buried in the yellow sand one by one, and they do not see the light of day, how can we admire the exquisite art of the ancients, and how can we feel nostalgic for the life of the ancients?"

"We can pay homage to the ancients in this way, to feel nostalgic for the ancients, but not to explore these valuable cultural relics and use them casually to trade, so that the quintessence of our country's cultural relics will be lost overseas. โ€

Chen Xiaoyan said angrily: "Every cultural relic buried in the yellow sand or under the loess is the property of the state, and our citizens do not have any right to take it for private ownership or sell it privately. โ€

Yuan Mazi thought that he said it casually, which caused such a big dissatisfaction with this little girl.

"I can't imagine that your awareness of national cultural relics is so high, it's really rare, admire and admire. Nowadays, when young people see treasures this year, there are not many people who can have this kind of consciousness and do not take possession of them privately. I just said casually, I mean, the ancients made this exquisite cultural relics, is to leave endless wealth for future generations, we have to understand the life of the ancients and the history of the time, I did not say that if you find it, you must sell it.

"That little brother also knew just now that none of the stones in my package were extremely beautiful and valuable, but I didn't try my best to sell them like other merchants. Little girl, don't be angry, don't be angry. The air in the desert is dry, and anger can easily wrinkle the skin on the face, so it doesn't look good. โ€
