Chapter 73: Blood Jade

Hu Fei still followed Geng Hanliang, and Geng Hanliang lived in the villa provided by the school, which was a townhouse, and basically lived in it with professor-level figures from the school. followed Geng Hanliang to the house, Hu Fei knew that Geng Hanliang lived alone, and Hu Fei didn't ask for details, but Geng Hanliang's face was not the face of losing his wife in his early years, it should be that his wife lived elsewhere.

Geng Hanliang pulled Hu Fei to speak, and took Hu Fei to the collection room, looking at Geng Hanliang's collection room, Hu Fei was mentally prepared, and couldn't help but be a little amazed. As a professor of archaeology, and a professor of high reputation, the collection in the house is certainly not too small, but it is indeed a bit too much, and the whole room is like a small exhibition.

Porcelain, calligraphy and painting, bronzes, etc., seeing Hu Fei's shocked eyes, Geng Hanliang said a little proudly: "How about it? The old man's collection is not bad, this is still a small part, hehe, my old man's most proud collection is a Yuan Qinghua, which I bought from a second-class dealer when I was young, but I have donated it, and now you see some cultural relics that are not very valuable." ”

Yuan Qinghua, of course Hu Fei knows what it is, the number of Yuan Qinghua preserved in the world is very small, as long as there is one, if it is auctioned, the value is more than 500 million RMB! But after looking around the room, Hu Fei's eyes suddenly fixed on a piece of jade, which was a piece of blood-red jade, the reason why Hu Fei noticed this was because the yin qi on this piece of jade was very heavy.

Also, when Hu Fei was young, Hu Yu carried such a piece of jade with him, which looked very similar to this piece, but he sold it later, and at that time there was really no way, so he could only sell the piece of jade that Hu Yu carried closely, which was probably when Hu Yu was 13 years old, that is, 7 years ago, when it was sold for 70,000 yuan.

Seeing Hu Fei's gaze, Geng Hanliang thought that he was interested in this, so he immediately took Hu Fei to this piece of blood jade, and said with a smile: "Come on, boy, start with this piece, you can identify what this is for me?"

"Blood Jade. Hu Fei said without hesitation.

"Oh, why not bloodstone?" Geng Hanliang asked noncommittally, smiling.

"Bloodstone doesn't have this sheen. Hu Fei shook his head, bloodstone and blood jade are still easy to distinguish, after all, bloodstone and jade are not the same mineral stones, bloodstone does not have the luster of jade after polishing, the most important thing is that the longer the jade is played with, the more obvious the rounded feeling, although Hu Fei did not touch it, but he can feel that the age of this piece of jade is at least hundreds of years and thousands of years.

Of course, the process of the formation of jade itself is an extremely long time, Hu Fei doesn't know if his feelings are accurate, anyway, jade is not a thing that depends on age to increase in value.

"Okay, you guessed right, this is indeed a piece of blood jade, so do you know how this blood jade was formed?" Geng Hanliang asked with a smile.

"Isn't this just a mineral? Like bloodstone, it should be mercury sulfide?" Hu Fei was stunned for a moment, mercury sulfide is actually the chemical name of cinnabar, and the color of this thing is no different from the color of this blood jade.

"Haha, you guessed wrong! The blood red in the blood jade is not a mineral, this is actually very similar to its name, in the antique world, no one actually says the word blood jade, because it is not like Hetian jade, topaz These seem to be a noun, but refers to the jade that seeps into the blood is blood jade. Geng Hanliang laughed twice and said quickly.

Hu Fei was a little stunned, feeling the thick yin qi carried by the jade, Hu Fei thought of the piece of blood jade that Hu Yu had carried before, and thought of Hu Yu's physique, Hu Fei's face suddenly became extremely difficult to look at, but he still controlled his expression, and immediately asked: "Professor Geng, do you mean that these blood jades are actually formed by human blood seeping into it?"

"It doesn't have to be human blood, but most of the blood jade is formed by human blood seeping, just like this piece, this should be from a thousand-year-old tomb, in the Qing Dynasty, this kind of jade was called blood Qin by antique collectors! The formation of this piece of jade such a scale of blood, at least a thousand-year-old tomb, that is to say, is the burial goods of the tomb owner, plus the quality of the jade is very good, and after the tomb owner decays, the jade will be soaked in the blood of the carrion, but other impurities can not enter the jade, only the blood will seep in, and this blood is formed, also called blood jade. Geng Hanliang pointed to the blood jade and said.

Seeing the expression on Hu Fei's face, Geng Hanliang suddenly laughed again, "Boy, I lied to you, this is a legend of the formation of blood jade, but modern science has proven that blood will be carbonized quickly when it is underground, and it will not penetrate deep into the jade, so this is just a legend, the blood red in this should be the same as bloodstone, and the oxidation and decomposition of iron elements into the jade body." ”

"I see, it scared me. Hu Fei nodded, but having said that, Hu Fei didn't believe Geng Hanliang's second explanation, because he himself had a huge secret, a secret that couldn't be explained by science! Hu Fei was more inclined to the first version, but it would be good to ask Nian Feng these questions.

Hu Fei was not thinking about this, but the heavy yin qi on this blood jade, these yin qi seemed to be able to corroborate the process of the formation of this blood jade, but, why was such a blood jade with extremely heavy yin qi hung on Hu Yu's neck as an ornament? Moreover, it must have been left to them by their parents, if they didn't know the role of this blood jade, it seemed that it could be explained, and they wanted to leave a piece of identification for their children.

But Hu Fei didn't know why, but he was not sure of this idea in his heart, the reason was very simple, it couldn't be such a coincidence, according to the person who picked him up, he and Hu Yu were picked up together, he was three years old at that time, Hu Yu seemed to have just given birth to a full moon, and it was impossible for such a small child to hang something around his neck. But he's three years old, and it's obviously okay to hang it around his neck.

Although Hu Fei can't remember what happened at that time, it must be impossible to lie to him, so this blood jade .......

"Come on, boy, come and see this. Geng Hanliang obviously didn't know what Hu Fei was thinking, so he directly pulled him to the second cultural relic.
