Luo Lao didn't continue to speak, just waiting for Yang Fan to explain himself, and it also meant to test this young talent.

Seeing that everyone was waiting for an answer, Yang Fan opened his mouth and said, "This is the soul bottle." ”

After hearing this, the people around who had a little insight all looked at Zhou Wentao in amazement, and also wiped their sweat for him. Fortunately, the gift was not given, otherwise they would not have imagined the consequences.

"Soul bottle, what is it?, isn't it blue and white porcelain?" Zhou Wentao was also stunned.

It was the first time he had heard the word "soul bottle", and he didn't know what it meant. His first instinct was to be deceived. When I said that it was blue and white porcelain, the seller nodded.

The others were speechless for a moment, don't look at the color a little cyan, just think it's blue and white porcelain! So, blue and white porcelain is too worthless, right?

"The soul bottle, also known as the soul bottle, the five-pot bottle, the five-hole bottle, the five-grain bottle, etc., is a kind of burial utensils popular in the southern region of China, and the shape of the vessel is mostly a flat-mouthed jar, a five-hole jar or a five-joint jar. Usually, it is mostly celadon. Yang Fan explained.

Because a large number of tombs were unearthed from the end of the Han Dynasty to the Song Dynasty, especially in the Six Dynasties, it is generally believed that the Middle Ages was the heyday of the popularity of the soul bottle custom.

However, in modern folk burial customs, there are also many utensils such as "treasure bottles", "food jars", "granaries", "grain hoards", and "soul bags" buried in the soil with the deceased, which is generally believed to be the custom of soul bottles.

As a burial object, it expresses the prayer of the tomb owner and his family to keep their wealth and prosperity forever, and also vividly reproduces the scene of the landlord's manor and the water town in the south of the Yangtze River, so it has extremely precious historical value and artistic value.

Before he finished listening, Zhou Wentao's cold hairs stood up. To put it simply, this is the burial goods, the stuff used by the dead. If this thing appeared at the birthday banquet, the consequences could not be described as serious.

"Holy!"

Yang Fan continued: "Unlike ordinary cultural relics, this thing is a tool for collecting souls in the eyes of some people, so forget about celebrating your birthday!"

The Chinese nation is a nation that loves funeral funerals, and some good things have to be buried, and some dark weapons are specially made, such as soul bottle burial. This custom is often difficult for modern people to figure out. However, it is precisely because of this system and customs that we can see the splendid civilization of thousands of years.

However, the soul bottle is more special, it is specially prepared for the deceased, and it is different from the gold and silver jewelry that accompanies the funeral.

Luo Lao nodded: "Well, it is a custom to bury the soul bottle. The concept of this custom is based on the fact that after death, the soul does not die, and food is still needed in the underworld, and the living must prepare food for the dead. This not only reflects the concern of the living for the deceased, but also a self-protection measure to appease the soul of the deceased and prevent it from coming back to the world. The name of 'soul bottle' is also named after this. ”

In fact, there is another point of view, which is what Yang Fan said.

The soul bottle is not a daily necessities for the deceased to use in the underworld, such as food poppies and food cans, but a concrete image of things, which embodies the secular tendencies of witchcraft, mythology and religion. In terms of the shape of the soul bottle, it is a kind of soul collecting magic tool.

The more Zhou Wentao listened, the more he broke out in a cold sweat, he really wanted to lie to him and come out of Ling Chi. Fuck it!

"Broken ...... Well broken!"

Although it was hundreds of thousands of things, he had long since ignored Yang Fan's mistakes, but was a little grateful, so he didn't send this gift over.

Soul reeling? It's creepy to hear.

Anyone who has watched ghost movies and zombie movies should know this kind of thing. Lin Zhengying likes this kind of prop very much, so he put the ghost in it and pasted a paper talisman.

Some people believe that the original meaning of the soul bottle should be "soul bottle", which is the magic object of witchcraft to cast a spell to suppress the tomb, that is, to collect the soul of the deceased in the bottle, so as not to jump out and make trouble. In some tombs and ruins, it is common to find "town tomb inscriptions" or talismans and seals and mud seals on clay vases, which reflect this intention.

In short, this kind of thing is very unlucky.

"This bottle of 800,000 is definitely expensive. Luo Lao helped to appraise, and I will pay as much as I should. However, I don't have that much money for the time being, so I may have to owe it first. Yang Fan said.

Hearing this, Luo Lao had a better impression of Yang Fan, a young man with responsibility.

"Okay, I'll take a look!" Luo Lao said with a smile, and after speaking, he was about to squat down and pick up the fragments to check.

Zhou Wentao hurriedly waved his hand: "Don't bother, I'm not careful enough to say it, I can't blame you all." And I have to thank you for your unintentional actions. Make a friend! ”

Luo Lao looked at these two young men with a smile, it had been a long time since he had met such an interesting young man.

Zhou Wentao stretched out his hand: "Zhou Wentao, what do you call this brother?"

Yang Fan naturally shook his hand: "Yang Fan!"

"Have you eaten?"

"Lunch yet. ”

"Let's go, I just saw an old shop over there. Zhou Wentao dragged Yang Fan away without saying a word.

The others were speechless when they looked at such a strange way of acquaintance, even Luo Lao shook his head with a wry smile, turned around and walked back to his antique shop.

"Lao Yang, you know a lot about antiques!" ordered three dishes, and Zhou Wentao spoke.

"I'll have to go to the antique street later. Seeing that Zhou Wentao was looking at the wine, Yang Fan immediately stopped him, and then replied to his words: "I've been mixing for three years, so I know a little bit." ”

"Okay, let's not drink today. Since you know, I'll help me later. Zhou Wentao was not polite to Yang Fan because of the first meeting, on the contrary, everyone had a feeling of seeing each other at home.

"Okay, I'll keep an eye on it for you later. ”

"It's better to make something special and interesting? It doesn't matter how much money you have. Zhou Wentao added.

"That's hard to say, you have to walk around to find out. Yang Fan understands that guy's thoughts, people who wish their birthdays with their hearts will have this kind of thought, not some secular people who think that the more expensive the gift, the more sincere.

Buying antiques for gifts, this phenomenon is not uncommon in today's society. Generally speaking, everyone likes what Baishou diagram, Baizi birthday vase, what longevity peach ornaments and the like.

Then, the two of them chatted with each other.

Yang Fan learned that Zhou Wentao started his own company, an entertainment company, not very famous, there are no famous artists under it, and it is still in a state of loss.

"Next month, I plan to make a movie by myself and cultivate the fame of the signed artists. Zhou Wentao said.

For this reason, he smashed tens of millions, and if it is a bad movie, the company's development may have to slow down. When you really do this, you find that it is not easy, many joints have to be opened, and first of all, you have to make friends with the media.

The new book is going to hit the list, brothers help!
