There is no need for Xu Ran to wait for a long time.

They just watched the antiques collected by Xu Ran in Xu Ran's study for a while, and time passed so quickly.

It was the first time that Zhang Daochang and Master Lian had seen the antiques collected by Xu Ran.

It is worthy of opening an antique company, and the scale is very large, as far as Xu Ran's personal collection is concerned, all of them are high-quality products, and the two elders who see it can't put it down, and they have forgotten the passage of time.

If it weren't for the dinner in the kitchen and came over to inform the meal, I'm afraid the second elder wouldn't know when to enjoy it.

arrived at about seven o'clock, and Zhang Daochang's old friend came from out of town just in time for dinner.

According to the introduction, the old man's surname is Zhao, a very low-key head of a wealthy family, since his grandfather is quite fond of those special style of antique collection, the family has built a special collection hall, through his three generations of collection of antiques of a wide variety, simply more than those museum displays.

This Zhao Lao is a very open-minded person, and after coming over, he just caught up with the meal point.

He was not polite, joking that he wanted to taste the food in the manor of Xu Ran, an outstanding young entrepreneur who is a household name in the whole country.

In fact, it's just some simple homely food, but maybe it's because the environment is different, but the three old-timers eat quite deliciously.

However, at the dinner table, Zhang Daochang and Master Lian chatted about the collections in Xu Ran's study.

Especially an ancient painting, even the master and Zhang Daochang were amazed, and I thought it was a very interesting painting.

This is to say that Zhao Lao's heart is itching, so he hurriedly ended dinner and went to Xu Ran's study again.

It's terrible to look at this one, Zhao Lao can't wait to stick his eyes on it when he looks at that painting.

Xu Ran has seen the painting many times, in fact, he also has a score in his heart, but it is just a freehand work of a genius of the Ming Dynasty.

But in the eyes of Zhao Lao, this painting is different again.

Perhaps Xu Ran is not particularly good at identifying calligraphy and paintings, and when Zhao Lao commented on this painting, he sharply mentioned that the superimposed shadow technique was used in the painting.

This means that there is a picture within a painting.

It is not that someone made a fake, but that part of the surface of the original work was peeled off and then stitched together on another fake to make it look like the real thing.

The superimposed technique used here, according to Zhao Lao, is to decorate two pieces of paper with two different scenes, and then stack them together, then some ink dots and ink lines will produce a wonderful effect, which looks more three-dimensional, just like the current 3D effect.

After listening to Zhao Lao's lectures, it was obvious that Zhao Lao loved this painting very much, so he asked Xu Ran if he was willing to transfer it to him, which was very direct.

Instead, Zhang Daochang coughed and reminded Zhao Lao not to delay the business.

Only then did Zhao Lao call in an assistant he had brought, and then he was holding a small suitcase.

After Elder Zhao put the small suitcase on the table, he opened it directly, and then pushed it in front of Xu Ran.

Xu Ran likes Zhao Lao's style of doing things, he is very straightforward, what to say, and does not engage in those routines that beat around the bush.

Look at the outer layer of the small suitcase with a layer of plastic wrap.

Underneath the plastic wrap was a gear-like bearing, with half a bone, like a fish bone, attached to it.

Xu Ran didn't open the plastic wrap to check.

In fact, the moment the little suitcase was opened, he felt a wave of spirit overflow from the gears.

The most special thing is the half of the fish bone, which still maintains a peculiar activity, as if biting on the wheel and not letting go, that is, turning into a fish bone after death, and still biting on the wheel.

At first glance, this thing was excavated from the bottom of the sea, and Xu Ran could determine at a glance that this was one of the eight holy weapons, the Dingzhi Wheel, which belonged to the Zhanlan tribe.

He didn't expect that this thing would appear in Zhao Lao's hands, and it seemed that he only regarded this thing as a strange and special collection.

Zhao Lao saw that Xu Ran was just looking at the thing, and didn't get started, so he couldn't help but nodded, and said: "This thing is very strange, especially the fish bone, which is highly poisonous, don't touch it with metal utensils, there will be some unpredictable troubles, when my father got this thing, he almost fell for it, but fortunately, a Japanese man took the first step to touch it with the muzzle of a gun, and as a result, his finger touched the poison on the fish bone, and it was only dead in less than three minutes......"

Even the master was looking at this fixed wisdom wheel, and couldn't help but wonder: "So will this thing spread toxins when exposed to the air?"

"Not really, there is moisture in the air, it doesn't spread, we have done some experiments, we can confirm that this thing is the safest thing to throw in the water, and the fish bones will not be poisoned.

But once it touches a metal object, it is a highly poisonous, very strange creature, and I don't know what kind of mutated creature it is, and we have never found any relevant information......"

After Xu Ran listened to this explanation, his heart moved.

He suddenly thought of a scene he saw in the ruins of the Shigan River, there was a pool in that scene, and a creature was swimming in the pool, when Ye Wudao left the pool, he still used a robot to help him cover, and then he successfully escaped.

At that time, the robot attracted the crazy attack of the water creatures, and the damage was extremely serious.

After the robot escaped, it happened to be teleported to the Gobi steppe and encountered a wolf, and when the wolf pounced on the robot to attack the robot, it was directly poisoned and died.

Later, Xu Ran led a team there to bring back the robot and the wolf corpse, and then threw it into the laboratory of the Fragmented City for analysis and research.

The results of the research report show that the organisms that secrete the poison are not carbon-based organisms, but mutated species born in a very special environment that are extremely rejective to metal elements.

However, at that time, no specific analysis was carried out on the specimens, and only the toxins that could contaminate the metal elements were analyzed and judged.

Now, if you have this ready-made half-cut bone, you can get a more accurate analysis.

Zhang Daochang was anxious to get the bronze caliper, so he looked at Xu Ran and said: "Mr. Xu, you see that although this wheel is said to have half of a highly poisonous bone attached, the wheel is still intact and well preserved, you are engaged in science and technology, there should be a way to take this bone down, I don't know if you are satisfied?"

"Don't worry!"

Zhao Lao interrupted Zhang Daochang's words at this time, but looked at Xu Ran and said: "Mr. Xu, I love this superimposed shadow painting in your collection, it just so happened that I got a pair of ancient paintings before I came, but it belongs to the ancient country of the Western Regions style, so I brought it with me, I hope that Mr. Xu will palm the eyes, if Xu Ran likes it, I want to exchange the superimposed shadow painting with Mr. Xu, none of us will suffer, what does Mr. Xu think?"

As he spoke, the old man, who did not drag his work style, took another painting scroll, and then opened the picture and presented it in front of Xu Ran.

Xu Ran just glanced at the painting, and couldn't help but feel a pound in his heart.
