Chapter 1254: Hidden Jade in a Stone Box
"My surname is Tang, Uncle Li, then I'll go back and wait for you!" Tang Yi didn't shirk anymore and took over the Jade Pig Dragon. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"I live in a neighboring village, so you'll have to wait for me for an hour." Li Laohan said, and drove the sheep away.
Tang Yi took the jade pig dragon and said to Wen Jia, "It's quite generous." ”
"He's not generous, it's that he doesn't think it's worth much. If he is generous, he still uses so much effort to drive the sheep back, and then lead the two sheep to you, and just leave the two sheep first? In his eyes, sheep are worth much more than this piece of jade! Wen Jia said with a smile.
"It's still a bystander." Tang Yi also smiled.
The two of them said as they walked back to the old crooked house of the original resident. Lao Crooked is an old bachelor, with a slightly crooked mouth, and he played with the Diao brothers when he was a child, so he arranged to live in his house. If the family is full of people, it is not appropriate to arrange two strangers.
"How can the jade of the Hongshan culture appear here?" Tang Yi naturally kept thinking about this in his heart.
The jade of Hongshan culture is a product of the new era, mainly referring to the jade found in the Hongshan cultural site. The earliest place to be discovered was the place in the north-northeast, and later it was found in the west of Liao Province to the northeast of Mongolia.
The batches of jade unearthed in the Hongshan culture are mainly animal shapes, such as the jade pig dragon in Tang Yi's hand now. The name is a bit strange, mainly because it resembles both a pig and a dragon, and in general, it is a pig's head and a dragon's body.
And then there are some jade artifacts like gods and gods.
However, the place where the Hongshan culture was discovered is far away from the loess plateau in northern Shaanxi, how can there be jade artifacts of the Hongshan culture on the mountains here? And Li Laohan also said that he "picked it up".
Wen Jia said, "I'll see it later." ”
They returned to Lao Wei's house, and the Diao brothers have not returned.
After an hour, Li Laohan really drove two sheep here.
Tang Yi said to Lao Crooked, this was bought by Diao Qinsan, and there was a lot of disturbance in the past two days, so he gave it to him.
The old crooked was very happy, and immediately said that he would kill one in the afternoon, stew a mutton in the evening, and the other could be raised first. Moreover, Lao Wei knew Li Laohan and said that Li Laohan's sheep was good and the meat was good, and all the villages knew it.
Tang Yi gave the money according to the price Li Laohan said. As soon as Li Laohan got the money, he had to lead him to the mountain opposite the village.
It is said that it is the opposite side, because it is separated by a small ravine. This small ravine is easy to cross. On the opposite mountain, the grass and trees are slightly more lush, so Li Laohan often goes to herd sheep.
After crossing the ravine, Li Laohan led them up the mountain. The mountain is not high, the slope is gentle, just on the mountainside, there is a large flat land similar to terraces, overgrown with wild grass. Li Laohan walked to the place where the flat land and the mountain intersected, pointed to a dirt ditch and said, "That's what I picked up here!" ”
This earthen ditch is facing the mountain, it is not long, and the edge of the ditch is also a little square, not like a naturally formed ditch. There was no grass growing in the ditch, it was mostly dirt, and there were a lot of pebble-like stones in it. It is said that there should not be such stones on the high slopes of this loess.
Tang Yi and Wen Jia pulled it on the spot, it was all stones, and there was still loess underneath, and no jade was found.
Tang Yi lit a cigarette and asked, "Uncle, how did you find out at that time?" ”
Li Laohan also lit a dry tobacco pouch and talked about it in general.
One afternoon last summer, Li Laohan came here to herd the sheep, and when he was tired, he sat on the edge of this earthen ditch and smoked dry tobacco, watching the sheep grazing, and at the same time pulling the soil in the ditch with his hands. As a result, after a few pulls, the dirt and floating soil were pulled apart, but I found that there were many pebble-like stones underneath, which were quite slippery.
He was already a little bored, so he started pulling the pebbles-like round stones again, and found a small stone box underneath, and a lid! However, the so-called Gaier is actually a small stone slab.
The stone box is not large, less than a foot long and less than half a foot wide, and there is a lot of rust and pimples on it. When I opened it, the jade pig dragon was inside, and there were two pieces of green jade at the same time.
The green jade slice is square, the edge is relatively smooth, there is a large round hole in the middle, and above the large round hole, there are two small holes side by side. He thought it was interesting, so he took it all back. The jade pig dragon tied a rope to it, hung it on the cigarette pouch, and the stone box had two pieces of green jade, so he gave it to his two grandsons to play with.
"That's it. You also looked for it just now, I'm afraid that this ditch is full of round stones, and there is nothing interesting to do. Li Laohan said.
According to Li Laohan's description, this green jade piece should be a green jade square of Hongshan culture. Of course, Li Laohan is not called Qingyu, but is said to be a piece of green stone.
"Uncle, are those two bluestone pieces still there?" Tang Yi then asked.
"I went back and asked, the stone box and the blue stone pieces were all played with by my two grandsons, and the two boys were so skinny that they didn't even know where they were lost!" Li Laohan replied.
Tang Yi looked at Wen Jia, Wen Jia understood, and nodded.
"Okay, uncle, it seems that I can't find anything, let's go back!" Tang Yi said, took out five hundred yuan, and stuffed it to Li Laohan, "You keep this, please run so far again!" ”
"Oh, why do you give so much money? You told me to take it up the mountain, but I didn't find anything! Li Laohan waved his hand.
"And the money for this jade piece on your cigarette pouch, uncle, you're welcome, I like this thing, it's hard to buy it if you have money, don't you?" Tang Yi forced the money into Li Laohan's hands. In fact, for this jade pig dragon, five hundred yuan is really a drop in the bucket, but he didn't dare to give more, if Li Laohan gave too much, if he publicized it, it would be easy to have an accident.
He made eye contact with Wen Jia, that is, he turned around and came back to investigate carefully.
Li Laohan finally took the money and went down the mountain with them. I didn't forget to say to Tang Yi, "I'll give you a cheap price when you buy sheep again." ”
This time when he returned to Lao Crook's house, Diao Qinsan had already returned, and when he saw Tang Yi and Wen Jia, he even said that he was embarrassed and stayed a little long.
"Be polite to me." Wen Jia waved his hand, and then glanced at Diao Qinsan. Diao Qinsan understood and walked to the side with Wen Jia. Wen Jia told me what had just happened.
At this time, the old crooked asked Tang Yi with a little interest, "What did Li Laohan take you to do?" Tang Yi smiled and said that Li Laohan took him to see the place where the sheep were grazing. When the old crooked heard it, he didn't think much about it, "This buy him two sheep, he is still very energetic!" ”
Here Diao Qinsan was also a little surprised when he heard what Wen Jia said, and groaned slightly, "Sheep herding is usually in the morning, in this way, after lunch, I will bring my tools, and we will go to explore in detail in the afternoon!" ”
After eating lunch and resting for a while, Tang Yi, Wen Jia and Diao Qinsan went up the mountain again.
