Chapter 228: Ornamentation in the Box
"I know, it's also called a leather shell, and on bronze ware, some people like to call it Black Lacquer Gu." Ran Zhenjun actually replied, "What you said is the name, what I said is the essence." ”
Tang Yi thought to himself, he couldn't debate this with this old engineering man, so he waited for the box to cool down and stopped talking.
"In fact, enamel has been used in metal for a long time. It can be traced back to the Warring States period, but at that time, it was not so complicated to use the aged wall soil, and there was no firing technology and raw materials. To build large appliances, when connecting, the old wall soil is used on the interface, and the accurate name of this thing is called calcination. Ran Zhenjun didn't stop, he really knew the history of metallurgy.
Tang Yi still didn't speak, looked left and right, and found an iron drill the size of a sweater needle.
Ran Zhenjun said that he was bored and stopped.
When the box was cold, Tang Yi picked up the iron chisel and came to the box. I saw that the cracks were full of small slags. Tang Yi didn't rush to open the box, but cleaned up these fine small slags with an iron drill.
"To..." Ran Zhenjun handed over a small brush, and he was naturally more familiar with the placement of tools. What's more, at this time, he also wanted to see what was in the box.
Tang Yi took the brush, and after cleaning it, he picked up the iron drill again.
At this time, there were only two of them in the huge workshop, and the blacksmiths usually came when they had work, but it seemed that there was no work now, otherwise Ran Zhenjun, the general manager, would not have to take over the work himself.
"Open it, let me open my eyes too." Ran Zhenjun is not young, and his curiosity is very heavy.
Tang Yi thought for a while, "Okay, but you have to keep it a secret, because this thing is not mine, I was entrusted to open it." ”
Ran Zhenjun muttered in his heart, such words are usually said by ordinary people, but Tang Yi said it in a low voice, which made him a little uncomfortable, but he still nodded.
Tang Yi gently picked the lid of the box with an iron drill, and sure enough, he picked it open effortlessly, and then picked the lid on the other side.
Because the matter of the mechanism box was discussed before, the two of them were very careful, and after picking the lid of the box, they found that there was nothing abnormal before they took a closer look.
While waiting, Tang Yi thought, it seems that the "Double Knife Shenhe" is not using a double knife to open the box, this does not use a double knife, it is also opened, so does this box have anything to do with the double knife?
As a result, when I looked inside the box, there was nothing in the box...
Ran Zhenjun sighed directly, "I see, the things in the box have already been taken away, this guy is a little fun-loving, and he sealed it again, it is estimated that when he took the things, the lid may not be sealed..."
Tang Yi was faintly excited. Because, although there is nothing in the box, the inside of the lid and the bottom of the box are engraved with ornaments...
Moreover, the inside of the lid is engraved with two knives, one large and one small, one large one engraved on the left side and the other small one engraved on the right side. The two knives were carved very realistically, and it was easy to recognize that they were Zichen Shuangdao.
Tang Yi studied it carefully, and each of these two knives was different from the real thing. There seems to be a small groove in the middle of the bottom of the handle of the broadsword, and a small circle is clearly carved at the entrance of the groove. It's a flat ornamentation, and if you think about it in a three-dimensional way, it's like there's a small hole at the bottom that goes deep into the handle.
The knife, on the other hand, has a similar groove and small circle at the end of the gauntlet.
It's all engraved, so it's hard to feel this way if you haven't seen the real thing. Tang Yi happened to have seen these two knives, and the same position of the real thing was smooth and flawless, so he paid special attention to it.
Seeing Tang Yi scrutinizing it so carefully, Ran Zhenjun stepped forward again to take a look, but he was not interested in these ornaments in the first place, and he couldn't understand what they meant, so it was useless to look at them again.
Ran Zhenjun patted Tang Yi on the shoulder, "No problem, I think you better give the money first..."
"Huh?" Tang Yi came back to his senses, took out five hundred-yuan bills from his wallet, handed them directly to Ran Zhenjun, and then re-examined the box.
"Happy cooperation..."Ran Zhenjun looked at the watermark on the money to the light, and then pointed to the ornament at the bottom of the box that Tang Yi was looking at and said, "Is this an incense burner?" There seems to be a mountain carved on it, which is quite interesting..."
Tang Yi didn't answer at all at this time, the decoration on the bottom of this box was exactly the appearance of Chongzhen's copper incense burner, but in the center of the furnace body, a mountain was engraved. This mountain is very ordinary, and it is impossible to tell what it is, but on the middle side of the mountain, it is also marked with a groove and circle.
At the same time, there is also a small ancient building carved in front of the mountain, which is very simple, just an outline, and two gates.
If you imagine it according to the same three-dimensional thinking, and the building should be sitting north and facing south, that is, on the west side of the mountainside, there may be a cave.
Tang Yi looked at it while combing it roughly. Obviously, there may be some treasure hidden in this cave, at least Emperor Chongzhen thinks it is very important. The shape of the smoke coming out of the lid of the incense burner may be the path into the cave. However, this is most likely the path after entering the cave, and it is useless to look at this at all...
And if you want to know where this mountain is, what kind of mountain it is, the handle and gauntlet of this Zichen double knife are likely to hide indicative things, such as maps...
Could it really be a treasure map?
The copper incense burner, Zichen double knife, and the god box, these three things are indispensable, and they complement each other, all pointing to the treasure in this cave...
Emperor Chongzhen was a dead king, when the world was in turmoil, the treasury was empty, and the military salary was urgent, it is said that he even took out his private goods for state affairs, what treasure would he have to hide? Not to mention hiding in the cave, I also carefully designed the path of this treasure hunt...
This means that this treasure is hidden for a while, obviously I don't want to hide it all the time, but it can't be found by outsiders.
Treasure? Obviously unlikely, if he had money, he would definitely spend it, and the military salary would not be enough...
Heirloom jade seal? It's also unlikely, there was no country at that time, but Zhang Xianzhong burned the ancestral grave.
Of course, Emperor Yongli of the Southern Ming Dynasty was not an outsider, and he was likely to master this path. However, he wandered from south to south, as if fleeing, and lost these things again······ In other words, the treasure in this cave is likely to be untouched...
And to solve these mysteries, you have to go back to study the two knives first, the big knife is in your hand, but the small knife is in Feng Qingshan's hand.
Just as I was thinking about it, the phone rang. Lao Huang...?
"Is there any progress in this god box?" Lao Huang's voice came out through the earpiece, and it was even more soft.
