PS: The second is to ask for a monthly pass, please support it.

"You're going back?"

At this time, hearing that Wang Guan was about to leave, Duan Lao also agreed: "Yes, it is really not safe to take these things outside, and they should indeed be taken back and stored carefully." ”

"yes." Wang Guan nodded, and said with a smile: "Old Duan, Old Yan, then I'll go back first." When you have time to go to the capital, remember to give me a call, so that I can do my landlord's friendship. ”

"No problem, I'll be looking for you if I go......"

After some greetings, Wang Guan called the security guard, and then carried all kinds of things and left. After two or three hours of tossing and turning, several people returned to the capital, to be precise, back to the gate of Qian Lao's mansion.

Because of the greeting in advance, Qian Lao was not surprised by the return of Wang Guan and the others, but looked at the box in the hall with great interest, and smiled curiously: "These are the things you dig out of the house...... Uh, no, should it be said that it was something that was obtained by demolishing people's houses? ”

"That's right." Wang nodded and said, "It's all people's fat and people's ointment." ”

Confucius is undoubtedly respected, but the descendants of Confucius may not be respected. You must know that since the descendants of Confucius became aristocrats, they were destined to stand on the opposite side of the people. Think about it, the Confucian family has been inherited in Qufu for at least 2,000 years, which means that the people of Qufu have been oppressed for nearly 2,000 years......

The word oppression may not be very accurate, but from the moment when the Confucian family accepted the imperial court and became a prince, it shows that the Confucian family has changed from a pure literati scholar to a social parasite.

After studying it carefully, you will know that after becoming the so-called Yan Shenggong, what else can the Confucian family do except the golden signboard of Confucius? What other achievements are there in academic thought?

The name of Yan Shenggong is actually a shackle, a huge shackle. Firmly on the head of the Kong family, so that they have no room to exert themselves at all. But then again, the imperial courts of the past dynasties offered the Confucian family up, just to make them the same as the clay bodhisattvas in the temple, just obediently not squeak. If you dare to make any dissenting voices, it is estimated that the end will be miserable......

Anyway, no matter what the reason, in the minds of many people, the Confucian family is a big cancer, so in the various movements after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the end of the Confucian Mansion is very tragic. But with the development of society. Everyone also began to look at Confucianism with a fair eye, discarding its dross and taking its essence, and Confucius's signboard was lifted out again.

Speaking of which, the most innocent is the old man Confucius, for more than 2,000 years, his academic ideas have always been tampered with by others in turn, and he has been judged from time to time. It's really wronged.

"What's in the box?"

At this time, Qian Lao smiled and asked, "Just simple gold, silver, pearls and jade?" ”

"Most of them are." Wang nodded and said: "Although it is a bit cliché, there is no way, after all, no matter ancient or modern. These are the most valuable things. ”

In fact, if you think about it, burying gold and silver is the most practical and the most secure. After all, gold and silver are scarce resources on earth, even if it is thousands of years away. It's definitely still a natural currency.

It's hard to say if something else is buried, not to mention the tragedy of the glass, even if the diamond is very expensive now. Who knows if in a few tens or hundreds of years, scientists will come up with a simple way to make diamonds. At that time, artificial diamonds will be rotten, and the price of natural diamonds will inevitably be affected, and they may not be worth much.

"Hmm."

At this time, Qian Lao opened the box casually and saw the brilliant light of gold, silver, pearls and gems in the box, as if it was as bright as starlight. However, he was used to being an old man, and he didn't feel anything special at all. After a little look, he closed the box casually, his expression a little disappointed.

Immediately, Qian Lao was sure and asked, "In other words, that half of the Danshu iron scroll should be from Kongjia Village?" ”

"Eight or nine is not far from ten." Wang nodded and said, "I don't know what the reason is, but I let Kong Chao go." But it's a pity, it's only half a piece. The other half, which should be in the Tang Imperial Palace, is probably destroyed in the war long ago. ”

"This is providence, and there is nothing to be done." Qian Lao shook his head slightly and said: "Forget it, you can't force perfection in everything, speaking of which, it is a good thing to be able to know the origin of half of the Danshu iron scroll, and it is not good to ask for anything else." ”

When it comes to Qian Lao's current state of mind, gold and silver treasures are no longer enough to make him feel excited, and only some precious and special cultural relics will arouse his interest.

In this regard, Wang Guan's heart was clear, and then he smiled lightly: "Since Qian Lao doesn't ask for anything else, then I won't show you anything else, and it's not bad to appreciate it myself." ”

"What do you mean?" Qian Lao's heart moved, and his eyes glanced over: "Do you have any other gains?" ”

"Yes."

Wang Guan said bluntly: "There is also a beam, which looks very good, I wonder if Qian Lao is interested in taking a look?" ”

"Less nonsense, get someone to move it up quickly."

When Qian Lao heard this, he knew that Wang Guan specially mentioned this matter, and he would definitely not make a fool of himself. Moreover, with his old man's experience, he naturally understood that the ancients had the habit of hiding things in the beams of the house.

At the right time, Wang Guan spread his hands and smiled: "Old Qian, it's not that I don't want people to move in, but the beams are too long, even if I move in, the hall can't be put down." Things are in the courtyard now, please move ...... old time."

"Let's go, let's see."

Hearing this, Qian Lao immediately walked out. When I got out of the hall door, I could see that in the corner of the house, there was indeed a round and thick wood lying diagonally, which was the beam wood that was removed from Kong Chao's ancestral house.

Generally speaking, the wood of the beams of the people's houses is elm. Not only is the elm wood stronger and harder, but it also has the lip gloss of the elm beam (surplus grain).

Of course, it does not mean that all house buildings in ancient times were made of elm beams, and there are exceptions. For example, dignitaries, emperors and generals, if there are conditions, the wood of the beams must be the best. It is not impossible to use precious woods such as golden silk nan and huanghuali as house beams.

"What kind of wood is this?"

At this time, Qian Lao carefully beat the beams and wood in the corner, because of the age, even if the dust on the surface of the wood was cleaned up, the color of the lacquer black covered up the original face of the wood, making it difficult to judge its bottom line.

"I've asked someone, it should be Huaimu." Wang Guan explained.

"Acacia wood is also an excellent meaning." Qian Lao said with a smile: "A locust tree in front of the door is either a treasure or a fortune, and this color head is better than elm." Of course, the most important thing is that the performance of locust wood is very stable, and it is indeed a good material for making house beams. ”

"Good material is not the key, the key is that the beam that should be solid is that there is a piece that seems to be hollow." Wang Guan smiled, stretched out his hand and reached out to the lower side, and the echo of the tuk tuk could be heard immediately.

"So what are you waiting for?"

Qian Lao immediately smiled and said, "Hurry up and check whether it is termite insect-eaten or artificially hollowed out." ”

"Okay." Wang Guan nodded, and after watching for a while, he could know that the hollow place had been sealed by someone, and there was definitely no way to open it simply by digging by hand, so he needed to use tools.

Greeted and asked someone to bring a hammer, and then Wang Guan carefully hammered and chiseled. After a few moments, the tightly bonded planks cracked, revealing a long dark grid.

In the dark grid, there is something hidden. Qian Lao walked over and took a look, only to see that the thing was more than three feet long, carefully wrapped in oil paper, and sprinkled with insect repellent medicine, which shows that the ancients attached great importance to things.

"It's like a scroll."

After taking out the things and weighing them, Qian Lao smiled and said, "And the weight is not light, it should be a long scroll." It's so tightly hidden, it's estimated that it's a masterpiece or something. ”

"Just look at it."

Wang Guan put down the hammer chisel and went to wash his hands, and when he returned to the hall, he saw that Qian Lao had torn off the oil paper, and saw that under the oil paper was a long tube, a delicately decorated bamboo tube.

"As expected."

At this time, Qian Lao's expression was slightly happy, and he gestured: "You see, this bamboo tube is not simple, it should be soaked in secret oil, which can not only prevent moisture, but also drain the air in the bamboo tube, forming a vacuum environment......"

Don't think that the ancients didn't understand science, in fact, the ancients may not have understood the term science, let alone the scientific connotation, but many things they did were very consistent with the principles of science. This should be knowing what it is, but considering the limitations of the ancients, this is understandable and understandable.

"Bamboo tube or something, I'll study it slowly in the future."

At the right time, Wang Guan urged: "Open the bamboo tube and take a look, the things inside must be more important." ”

Qian Lao smiled, and after poking a small hole blocked with a wax pill on the side of the bamboo tube with his hand, he easily opened the bamboo cover, only to see that there was indeed a scroll in the bamboo tube. Judging from the thickness of the scroll, you can know that Qian Lao is right, this is indeed a long scroll.

"I don't know if it's calligraphy or calligraphy and painting."

Qian Lao was also a little curious, and motioned to Wang Guan to clean up the long table next to him, and then carefully untied the scroll tie, and then gently pulled up the frontispiece and spread it out little by little......

"Huh."

The scroll was spread out in half, and Qian Lao naturally looked at it. At first glance, there was a bit of surprise on his face. I saw that the scroll was a calligraphy painting, but unlike ordinary calligraphy and painting, it was a white drawing.

White drawing is a painting technique that refers to the method of drawing an image with ink lines without color. For example, the embroidered portraits of the Qing Dynasty are illustrated in the four famous works, and there are many illustrations in them, which are generally painted in white.

Of course, don't think that white drawings are reduced to novel illustrations, and that white drawings are not of high value. This is a kind of misunderstanding, in fact, whether ancient or modern, the works of white drawing masters have always been warmly sought after by collectors.

It's just that because white drawing requires a lot of skill from the creator, it is very easy to get started, but it is not so easy to reach a certain height...... (To be continued......)
