"Tired!"

At this time, Wang Guan looked at the katana again, but it was a pity that he really couldn't see any clues.

Not only him, but Pi Qiushi and the others next to him only felt that this knife was wrong from Hu Shao's attitude, but they couldn't say what was wrong.

"Interlaced like a mountain." Lao Meng was half self-deprecating, half self-explanatory: "What's more, there is still a country apart, so it is even more blind." ”

"That's right." Sha Qingfeng nodded, and also pondered: "Do you know any of your peers in Hong Kong who know more about Japanese swords?" ”

Needless to say, there are only a limited number of people in Hong Kong, so naturally I don't know. As for Lao Meng, he smiled bitterly when he groaned: "I know one, and I am the only one, you know ......."

Everyone naturally knew that he was talking about the strong man Mr. Xin, but Mr. Xin had been bought by Hu Shao and sent directly to a foreign country for tourism, so it was naturally impossible to come over to help. And even if someone comes, it's not certain who he will help.

"It doesn't have to be professional, either." Sha Qingfeng thought for a while, and said uncertainly: "Lao He seems to understand something, do you want to call him and ask him to come over and take a look?" ”

"Don't bother with it anymore."

At this moment, Wang Guan waved his hand lightly and said thoughtfully: "I seem to feel a little bit." ”

To lie, to lie, is to lie. However, he does have a solution. In this case, there seems to be no other option than cheating.

As he spoke, Wang Guan was indeed cheating, and the moment he lowered his head, the ability spread out, easily enveloping the Japanese katana, and seeing through every detail.

At first glance. Wang Guan's hand tightened, and there was a feeling of surprise and expectation. As he stared intently, he saw that the Japanese katana did not react at all, which was enough to prove that this was the latest weapon to be cast, and not an antique belonging to the Meiji Emperor period at the end of the 19th century, as Hu Shao said.

"Interesting...... a smile appeared on the corner of Wang Guan's mouth, but under the hilt of the knife in his hand, another line of inscriptions was found.

It should be mentioned here that in fact, when casting weapons, from beginning to end, it is a whole. The head is pointed. The tail is the handle. Everyone should also know that whether it is a knife or a sword, at the beginning, it is constantly folded and forged from a piece of iron, and then slowly forms a piece of iron, and finally quenched into a sword.

In other words, after the sword is formed, the handle of the sword is either flat or flat-pointed, and it needs to be further processed. Either inlay, or clamped and reinforced, or directly wound the thread, this becomes a cylindrical handle.

Other than that. Probably a habit, people who cast weapons always like to leave inscriptions on their works, not only Chinese have such a habit, but also the Japanese are no exception.

But it is well known. The inscription can be a date, a caster's name, or some auspicious message. It can even be combined to engrave the date, name, and auspicious gift on the same weapon.

However, there is one situation that is absolutely impossible, and that is that there are two names on a weapon.

You may not understand this, it's like a person who keeps changing his name, even if someone calls him by his previous name, he will nod his head and agree, as if he has many names. In fact, this is an illusion, because no matter how many names he changes, there will always be only one on his ID card.

It's the same with weapons, maybe this weapon has some other alias, but the inscription name engraved on the weapon is definitely only one, and there will not be a situation where two names appear on the same weapon at the same time.

However, Wang Guan found this anomaly on this Japanese katana. Not only does the blade have the name of Kikumaru, but there are also several lines of inscriptions under the silk wrapping of the handle. The inscription is also kanji, and the content is relatively simple, one is the date of casting the katana, the second is the name of the author, and the third is the name of the sword.

After seeing these contents, Wang Guan lowered his head and thought for a while, and the smile in his eyes was very strong.

At the same time, the quarrel between Cai Peng and Hu Shao was also coming to an end, ending in a tie between the two sides. In fact, Cai Peng's eyesight is not good, and he didn't see Hu Shao's weakness, otherwise he would have won if he chased and fought hard.

Despite this, it also made Hu Shao nervous for a few minutes, and there was slight sweat oozing out of his forehead. So after Cai Pengyan died down, Hu Shao also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately shouted: "How about it, after reading the thing, don't look for bones in the eggs, and don't think about dying and struggling......"

"Cut, that's what I should say." Cai Peng snorted: "Let's see how you cry in a while." ”

After throwing away these words, Cai Peng retreated and said softly: "Big brother, do you see it, is there anything wrong with this knife?" ”

"This knife is not Kikumaru."

Wang Guan groaned and said with great certainty: "Maybe it can be said that the inscription of the word Jumaru was engraved later. ”

"What?"

Cai Peng was stunned for a moment, and then said overjoyed: "Really? ”

Hearing this, Pi Qiushi and the others were also a little stunned, and then they became a little suspicious. The letter stems from the trust in Wang Guan, but the suspicion is the suspicion of Hu Shao's gaffe just now.

"Look closely......

Hindsight, who wouldn't, Wang Guan is like this now, confidently reasoning backwards: "Everyone knows that the inscription on the knife should be engraved when it is cast, so the inscription is very natural and integrated with the blade." ”

"But now the inscription on this knife is very unnatural, and if you touch it with your hand, you will find the feeling of stabbing your hand. So I'm sure it was newly chiseled out of the knife later. ”

Wang Guan swore and said: "Judging from the light refracted in the gaps of the inscription, we know that the time for chiseling should not be long, otherwise after oxidizing in contact with the air, the bright light should be restrained and will not be so dazzling......"

Cai Peng is just that, but Pi Qiushi and others are also experts, although they don't know much about Japanese swords, but they are still relatively clear about the difference between the new and the old. Now after hearing Wang Guan's reminder and reaching out to touch the inscription, the rough and piercing feeling immediately made them agree with Wang Guan's judgment, affirming that this inscription must have been added later.

Hearing this, Cai Peng no longer doubted, perhaps he didn't want to doubt it at all, so he immediately turned around and laughed: "What kind of famous knife chrysanthemum pill, it turned out to be fake, I feel ashamed for you if you can get it." ”

"Why do you say it's false, come up with evidence."

After all, he quarreled with Cai Peng for a while just now because of the unworthy topic, so Hu Shao was also quite calm, although he was feeling weak in his heart, his attitude was still tough on the surface, and he refused to admit this fact.

"The proof is this inscription, the gap is so piercing, it must be freshly chiseled......"

"If you say a stabbing is a stabbing hand, why don't I feel a stinger!"

Hu Shao made it clear that he wanted to open his eyes and tell nonsense, even if Cai Peng was furious, he had no choice but to scold. Hu Shao naturally sneered at each other, and the two quarreled again, and they didn't stop for a while.

Seeing this situation, Wang Guan shook his head lightly, and suddenly interjected: "Actually, it is very simple to ask for evidence, I heard that some Japanese knife casting masters like to engrave inscriptions on the hilt, we can remove the silk thread on the hilt and take a look." ”

"No......"

Hu Shao categorically refused without thinking about it, and finally found that he refused too quickly, and explained in a nutshell: "How can such a precious thing be dismantled, what if it is broken, you will compensate me." ”

"Okay, I'll pay for it."

Cai Peng finally found some clues, and immediately grinned and said: "Hu Shao, you seem to be very weak-hearted, I'm not afraid that you are afraid that things will be broken." Tear it down, I'll pay you if it's broken. ”

"Nonsense, it's not your stuff, you definitely don't cherish it." Hu Shao said angrily: "Besides, this is something worth five million US dollars, can you afford to pay it?" ”

"Is it worth five million or two, if it's a fake, it's estimated that it's not worth much." Cai Peng smiled happily: "I know you don't dare, a fake is a fake, you just admit it honestly." ”

"I'm a real knife, why should I admit it." Hu Shao planned to hold on to the end with a dead duck's mouth.

But just remove the silk thread of the handle, it won't break anything at all, and find someone to help wrap it back, the more he opposes it, the more it proves his weakness.

"The knife is a real knife, but it's definitely not what you said about Kikumaru." Cai Peng snorted: "Maybe you just go to a Japanese stall and pick up a cheap knife and come back, and then carve a few words on the knife, and pretend to be an antique ......."

This is a bit of an exaggeration, after all, this sword is indeed a fine product, and hand-forged katana is not cheap.

Of course, Cai Peng didn't care about this, and kept belittling it. Hu Shao was naturally very annoyed, and couldn't help but retort: "You said that my knife is not good, then what weapon did you bring, could it be a fruit knife?" ”

"Hmph, even if I bring a fruit knife, at least it's still the real thing, not like your fake and shoddy products."

While speaking, Cai Peng said triumphantly: "Besides, what I brought was not a fruit knife, but a sword, a real sword, a hundred times stronger than your fake knife." ”

"It's not illegal to brag, so whatever you want." Hu Shao snorted and said: "Who doesn't know it, it's really so powerful, take it out and take a look, it is estimated that it is also something like a paper-cutting knife." ”

"Take it, look carefully, don't blind your dog's eyes." Cai Peng was triumphant, clapping his hands gently, and a bodyguard also held the sword box.

At the same time, Cai Peng opened the lid of the box, directly took out the Gongbu sword, and then slashed in the air, and a brilliant light appeared, naturally attracting everyone's attention.

"How's that, sword, ancient sword." Cai Peng showed off: "Look at the delicate texture on the sword, as well as this sharp blade, it is much better than that knife." ”

This is somewhat boastful, but also to admit a fact, the Gongbu sword has been inherited for more than 2,000 years, and the sword body has left some traces of time, and the simple comparison of the quality is certainly not as glamorous as the Japanese samurai sword, but the ancient and restrained elegance of the sword is far beyond the reach of the katana.
