"Which one is Yanshi?" Zhong Jinxian hadn't heard of it, so he picked up his mobile phone and searched the Internet, and Tian Mengmeng and Jiang Haoming also came up to see it.

"It's a myth. Jiang Haoming said.

Meng Zitao said with a smile: "If the Western Zhou Dynasty is more mythical because it is too old, then from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period to the Han and Wei Dynasties, due to the frequent wars and the later appearance of iron tools, coupled with the great development of agricultural production and city-state life, the law of organs has appeared on the stage in the fields of military, agriculture and handicrafts. And is it true that one story after another in history is false?"

"For example, Mozi and Lu Ban are the great scientists of the Han Dynasty Zhang Heng and Zhuge Liang of the Three Kingdoms. Many of the city-guarding instruments invented by Mozi have become exquisite due to the use of mechanisms, and his contemporary, Lu Ban, who is regarded as the 'ancestor of carpentry', has countless stories, and the legend of his creation of the "Organ Bird" and the physical objects of "Luban Lock" and "Luban Pillow" have been passed down through the ages. ”

"In addition, there are Zhang Heng's 'geodynamic instrument' and 'armillary sphere', which have used ingenious man-made mechanisms to observe celestial phenomena and geographical changes, while Zhuge Liang's 'repeating crossbow' and 'wooden ox flowing horse' are both technological inventions that test mechanical technology. Are you saying it's all fake?"

Jiang Haoming couldn't refute, and said: "But this is a robot!"

Meng Zitao said: "Then you can find an ancient man named 'Ma Jun' on the Internet and take a look at his life." ”

Zhong Jinxian searched for Ma Jun on the Internet, and was immediately shocked: "Damn, there is such a cow, I have never heard of it before!"

"That's because you don't care about that. Meng Zitao smiled and said: "Of course, if you must say that the ancients couldn't make such a thing, otherwise why didn't a few pieces have been handed down, I don't want to explain more, this kind of thing is benevolent, and the wise see it." ”

"Hmph!" Jiang Haoming snorted lightly, he felt that this was Meng Zitao talking about himself, and he was a little dissatisfied.

"Zitao, how does this thing move?" Zhong Jinxian looked curious.

Meng Zitao said: "Look here, if you look carefully, there is a thin slit, this should be the place where the splicing is made, and the mechanism is put in from here." You should see better with a magnifying glass. ”

With the help of a magnifying glass, the three of them really happened to that slit, and they didn't feel too magical in their hearts, because people often have a sense of curiosity or fear about mysterious things, as long as there is a certain explanation, although they will still feel novel, but they are not so strong.

Zhong Jinxian said: "Zitao, why don't you open it and see what is inside." ”

Meng Zitao said: "It will definitely be opened when it is opened, but I have to wait until I am sure that it will be said, otherwise if it is damaged due to opening, the loss will be too great." ”

Zhong Jinxian nodded and said, "Then you must inform me when you arrive." ”

"No problem. Meng Zitao said with a smile.

Next, everyone began to appreciate the jade dancing again, and found that the steps of the movement will change when twisting the limbs, although the movement of this thing is simple, but I always feel that there is a charm in it, which makes everyone look at it with relish, and feel that the maker is too powerful.

"Zitao, can I play with this thing for two days?" Zhong Jinxian said.

"I'll give it to you when I come to the capital next time. ”

No matter how magical things are, Meng Zitao has seen them, so he is not reluctant, nor does he have secret thoughts.

"You want to go back?"

"Yes, I've been in the capital for a few days, and I'm going back to attend the annual meeting of our city's antique association, I want to show the jade to my master, and I'll bring it to you when I come back to the capital." ”

Although Zhong Jinxian has some regrets, he can still wait for this time.

…………

Meng Zitao took the plane back to Lingshi that night, and the investigation of some of the things he encountered in the capital was handled by a special person, so that Meng Zitao didn't need to worry too much, but the accident made him a little unhappy, especially when he was run away by the fierce master, and finally found that it was indeed a business trip to the police station, and someone was bought by the fierce master, and then many people were implicated, which was a small storm.

Although things in the capital are not very satisfactory, but a pair of jade people is a good compensation, and there is still a possible Wen Tao treasure, if it can be found, it depends on what Wen Tao did, if he does leave a treasure, the things inside must be priceless, maybe it is possible to find the "Orchid Pavilion Preface".

It is rumored that after the death of Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, he brought many precious masterpieces of calligraphy and painting such as "Orchid Pavilion Preface" as funeral goods into Zhaoling. This tomb was stolen by Wen Tao without exception, and ironically, after Wen Tao, who did not know how to read and ink, took a batch of calligraphy and painting works out of the Zhao Tomb, he did not look at priceless calligraphy and painting works, but gorgeous silk and satin mounted outside. He told his men to tear off all the silk and throw the work away.

Because of this, the damage that Wen Tao brought to the imperial tombs of our country was catastrophic and irreversible, and many precious cultural relics were destroyed by it. Therefore, the historical and archaeological circles have determined that Wen Tao is the most dangerous tomb robber in the history of tomb robbery in China, and he has committed a crime through the ages.

And it is speculated that Wang Xizhi's "Orchid Pavilion Preface" will no longer appear, which may have been torn up by Wen Tao. But what is puzzling is that among the stolen treasures registered by Wen Tao one by one, there is no such sticker. Later generations of scholars held a good wish, hoping that the "Orchid Pavilion Preface" would be in Wu Zetian's Qianling.

However, Meng Zitao found that Wen Tao may have left treasures, and the ancient calligraphy work "Orchid Pavilion Preface" will be among these treasures?

Thinking about Meng Zitao made me feel excited, and I wanted to find that place as soon as possible, of course, this was not only Meng Zitao's wish, but also Zheng Anzhi.

Zheng Anzhi looked at the painting that Meng Zitao simply copied from his memory, and said with a smile: "I think you can improve some of your painting skills, and high imitation will also be a good way to make money in the future." ”

Meng Zitao shook his head again and again and said: "Then forget it, this work is too tiring and too brain-consuming, I might as well write a few more words with this effort." ”

"You are a full man, you don't know that a hungry man is hungry. Speaking of this, Zheng Anzhi laughed again: "But also, if others can have some ability from you, it is impossible to go hungry." ”

Meng Zitao chuckled a few times.

Zheng Anzhi smiled: "You are a lucky star, I originally wanted others to go, but then I thought that you were in the capital, so I asked you to try, but I didn't expect to bring this surprise, and when this matter is confirmed, I must give you a grand prize." ”

Meng Zitao smiled and said, "It would be nice if you could pick a few things for me." ”

Zheng Anzhi chuckled and said, "Your credit is indeed great, but I can't promise you this matter easily." You want individual rewards. ”

"Then pick a few treasures and put them on display in my museum, and add some monetary rewards, it's always okay. ”

Once this kind of thing involves the state department, it can't be so casual, but Meng Zitao actually doesn't care much, after all, finding the exact location, it is very troublesome for him to rely on himself, and it is definitely not as fast as he is now. Besides, just like before, the reward for him was really a lot, and he didn't feel that there was much to lose.

Zheng Anzhi said with a smile: "Don't plan this too early, wait until the place is found." ”

"Hey, hey. Meng Zitao smiled, and then asked, "Master, who is that Zhu Zhongshi?"

"This person, on the surface, is a businessman and a big collector, but in fact, according to the investigation, he may also be an antiquities dealer, or an important member of the Black Fire in China. However, according to the information provided by Yuan Jingde, this can basically be ruled out. ”

"In addition, he has been implicated in the disappearance of a number of people who had been in contact with him before they disappeared, but there is no conclusive evidence to confirm this," Zheng said. Moreover, his background is more complicated, and he cannot be caught easily. ”

Meng Zitao frowned slightly and said, "In this case, he should also have the ability to find the treasure." ”

Zheng Anzhi said with a smile: "Find the best, save us trouble, and the key to open is still in your hands, don't be too anxious." ”

"What if he uses explosives?"

"You, don't think about it, he's a dealer in antiquities, unless there's really no way, how can he use such a violent method? And Wen Tao is a warlord who is proficient in tomb robbing, who knows what means he will leave inside. Even if it wasn't left by Wen Tao, based on my experience, there should be a powerful mechanism in it. Don't worry about this, the location is being searched, and Zhu Zhongshi is also watching, and he won't let him succeed. ”

"Okay. ”

Next, Meng Zitao took out the pair of dancing jade figures, and Zheng Anzhi was also very shocked when he saw it, and then his eyes lit up, and he looked at it over and over again with his eyebrows, and he didn't feel bored at all.

After a while, Zheng Anzhi finally stopped, picked up the jade figure to study, sighed at the superb wisdom of the ancients, and also wanted to disassemble the jade figure for study, but because he was worried about causing irreparable damage to the jade man, he still gave up.

After asking Meng Zitao what he thought, Zheng Anzhi nodded and said, "Okay, you try to see if you can remove the jade figure, but don't force it." ”

Meng Zitao said he knew.

"The jade man will keep me for two days first, and I will give it to you when you go to the capital again. ”

"No problem. ”

"By the way, you can take back the two pieces of porcelain that were sent to me earlier. Xiao Likai"

Zheng Anzhi said that it was Xiao Likai's porcelain mailed, and Meng Zitao was in the capital before, and it was inconvenient to receive it, so he sent it to Zheng Anzhi, and by the way, he was able to let the master evaluate it.

Meng Zitao asked, "Have you seen it old?"

Zheng Anzhi said: "I've seen it, the level of imitation is very superb, especially the brother kiln, which has a ninety-fifty level, Xiao Likai You have to manage this person well, otherwise if you let it out to do bad things, it will be another scourge." ”

The similarity of ninety percent and five is already a high evaluation of the master, Meng Zitao said: "Don't worry, Xiao Likai's character is still good, in addition, I also sent other people over to try to ensure that there will be no problems." ”

"That's good......"

Meng Zitao went to get two pieces of porcelain, one of which is Qianlong pastel, and the other is the brother kiln, compared to the outside, the brother kiln porcelain Meng Zitao can still see some small problems when he looks closely, and the Qianlong pastel porcelain with his eyesight is enough to confuse the real with the fake, and some can't see the real or fake, which shows the high level of Xiao Likai.

Just as Meng Zitao was carefully examining the porcelain, Wang Zhixuan called him and asked him if there was any porcelain in his collection that was enough to confuse the real and the higher the value, the better the better, and he needed to use it now, and if it was convenient, let someone send one to him.

Meng Zitao said that it was really a coincidence, so he said that he had returned to Beijing now, and he would send things over now.

Bidding farewell to his master, Meng Zitao took two pieces of high-quality imitation porcelain and drove to Wang Zhixuan's home.

When he arrived at the place, although Wang Zhixuan only needed one piece of porcelain, Meng Zitao thought about it and took both pieces of porcelain.

Knocking on the door, it was Cheng Qiheng who opened the door, and after a few words of greeting, Meng Zitao asked, "Are there any guests today?"

"It's a villain. ”

"What's going on?"

"I'll talk about this later, and I'll get rid of them first. ”

"Okay. ”

The two of them walked into the house and found that in addition to Wang Zhixuan, there was also a middle-aged man who looked like a boss in the house, and there were two bodyguards next to him.

After introduction, this person's name is Chang Yanghui, and Wang Zhixuan didn't say much about the specific information, and Meng Zitao didn't ask me.

"Lao Wang, is this something here?" Chang Yanghui was a little arrogant when he spoke.

Wang Zhixuan just responded.

Chang Yanghui turned his head and glanced at one of the bodyguards, and the man immediately put a brocade box in his hand in front of Chang Yanghui.

The brocade box was opened by Chang Yanghui, who took out a piece of porcelain from it and placed it on the table.

When Meng Zitao saw this porcelain, he was slightly stunned, because this was actually a fixed kiln, and the whole body of the plate was a twelve-petal chrysanthemum style, with an open mouth, a shallow arc wall, and a flat bottom. Transparent glaze is applied inside and outside, and there is no glaze at the tip of the mouth along the petal, indicating that it was fired by the "overburning" method at that time.

The shape of the plate is regular, the carcass is light and thin, and the enamel is warm and white like snow, like a blooming white chrysanthemum, which fully reflects the ability of porcelain craftsmen at that time to find inspiration from the material form of nature and create new porcelain, and also shows the elegant aesthetic taste of the Song Dynasty.

In the memory of Mencius Tao, it is the same as the pink and blue glazed chrysanthemum petal mouth plate of the Southern Song Dynasty Xiunei Si official kiln in the collection of the Palace Museum on the treasure island, the same system, and the same royal court color, all of which belong to the royal painting custom products, which were supervised by the Song Dynasty government.

Looking at Wang Zhixuan's slightly surprised look, Chang Yanghui raised his eyebrows, and his expression was slightly meaningful: "Old Wang, what do you think of my Dingyao white glaze twelve-petal wash?"

Wang Zhixuan's face was a little unpleasant, and he asked, "You actually brought the kiln here?"

Chang Yanghui said triumphantly: "Lao Wang, what you said, it's nothing for me to bring the kiln over, we shouldn't have said it at the beginning, can't we take the things of the five famous kilns?"
