Seeing that the horse-faced eighth master didn't speak, Lin Yi smiled and said, "What, can't I choose this coffin?" ”

The eighth master looked stunned, paused, and laughed: "Master, it's really a master!" It's so secret, and you've found it, and it looks like I'm gone. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThat's right, what you want is inside, the mountain is up, open the coffin! ”

The black-faced man who was following closely behind the eighth master and kept rushing towards Lin Yi rolled up his sleeves and walked over, lifted the coffin board, and opened the coffin with all his might.

The eighth master slammed the sharp knife in his hand into the Taishi chair, got up, and said: "Friend, take a look, this is an old thing we found out, I thought it was some gold and silver treasures, but I didn't expect it to be a bunch of such things!" The tone was weird.

Lin Yi was curious, what could make a man like the eighth master feel awkward.

So I walked over and watched---

I saw that the inside of the coffin was pitch black, but with the help of the light in the room, I could still see clearly, and I saw a pile of scrolls with calligraphy and paintings piled up below, and a lacquered wooden box, according to Lin Yi's eyes, it looked like a wooden letter used to put books in ancient times. In addition, there are bronze mirrors, wooden combs, hairpins, rouge lipsticks, silk satin, etc., which are used by some women, so it can be seen that the owner of this coffin should be a woman.

The eighth master next to him spat at the mouth and said, "Bad luck! When I got the news, I led my brothers to run into the deep mountains and old forests, thinking that I could touch any treasures, but I didn't expect that it would be such a coffin board, and there were no valuable funeral items, just such a bunch of bad calligraphy and paintings, and decayed silk and satin, so I directly brought this thing back, you see, what price can be given? ”

Lin Yi took a deep breath, the horse-faced eighth master said simply, what is this not tomb robbery? Lin Yi usually reads some miscellaneous books, and knows that they are heavy in their industry, ruthless with their hands and feet, and they can often touch good things.

For collectors, all old books and ancient books that have never appeared in the world are rare and unique books, and I don't know if there are any of them.

Thinking of this, Lin Yi had the courage to say, "Can you let me take a look at the goods first?" ”

The horse-faced eighth master: "Just look at it." But hurry up and ---."

Lin Yi nodded, so he took out the scrolls, a total of five calligraphy and paintings, and the wooden box. As for the other bronze mirrors, wooden combs, rouge lipsticks, silk satin...... Let Lao Huang take them out.

Lin Yi unfolded a painting first, and when he saw it, he was stunned. Because he recognized this painting, it was the famous ancient painting of the Southern Song Dynasty --- "Skeleton Fantasy Play".

In the picture, a large skeleton sits on the ground, manipulating a small skeleton with a suspenile. This is one of the forms of puppet performance in the Song Dynasty - hanging silk puppet performance. Of course, such performances in real life are manipulated by people, and the moral of the skeleton as the protagonist is about to reflect the illusory, impermanent, and disillusioned meaning of life's fate. Therefore, life has been seen through, and it is about a walking corpse.

Next to the skeleton is a puppet play burden, with straw mats, umbrellas and other objects on it, and behind the skeleton is a woman who is breastfeeding a baby, perhaps his wife, the picture shows the hard life of the puppet artist running around with his wife and children.

However, the moral is looming and elusive, and anyone who looks at it seems to have some deep inner resonance. Therefore, there is no need for much explanation, and if it does, it loses its meaning. In the face of life and society, although there are different degrees of resonance, they are just different manifestations of the same mentality......

The skull skeleton painting is relatively accurate, showing the painter's understanding of human bones, and the picture is clean and neat. Fine-brushed coloring, skilled skills.

The writer of this painting is Li Song of the Southern Song Dynasty, the adopted son of a court painter, who painted many genre paintings that depicted the life of the lower classes, and depicted the life of the working people as an aesthetic object, which is of great significance in the history of the development of ancient Chinese art.

But these are not the point, the focus is on the authenticity of this ancient painting of the Southern Song Dynasty, which is now in the collection of the Palace Museum in Beijing. In other words, Lin Yi saw that this painting was definitely a fake.

Not to mention anything else, Lin Yi followed Uncle De and Uncle Kang to learn the identification skills of ancient paintings, judging from the paper, the court in the Southern Song Dynasty commonly used tribute rice paper, but the paper of this calligraphy and painting in front of him is generally more expensive rice paper.

Judging from the above handwriting, it is obvious that the inscription belongs to the mellow "pavilion style" of the Qing Dynasty, and it is definitely not the "Song style" commonly used in the Southern Song Dynasty.

Therefore, Lin Yi preliminarily concluded that this calligraphy and painting was copied by the Qing Dynasty painters of the Southern Song Dynasty.

Nowadays, in addition to those top painters in the Qing Dynasty, such as the four monks and eight families, the paintings of other writers are at most 30,000 or 40,000 yuan in the market, and the good paintings are only 100,000 yuan, so Lin Yi is not interested in this copy of the fake, but the seal on this painting is relatively special, and it is a rare "hidden head and tail" chapter.

Lin Yi couldn't help but pick up the remaining four paintings, unfolded them and looked at them, dizzy, they turned out to be the four beauties!

Xi Shi, Diao Chan, Wang Zhaojun, Yang Yuhuan.

However, these four beauties are different from the common ones, because ...... They don't have any clothes on!

To put it more bluntly, these four paintings are all authentic "Spring Palace paintings", and the paintings are vivid and lifelike.

Unlike now, in ancient times, this kind of painting was common, and even ordinary people had a few of them. Especially in many places, when the daughter gets married, the mother's family has to accompany some spring palace drawings as a dowry, so that the daughter will not understand anything at that time and will not be able to pass on the lineage to her in-laws.

However, what made Lin Yi wonder was that these four beauties were actually painted by the same person, or the "Hidden Head and Tail" chapter.

This is evil.

first a "Skeleton Fantasy Drama", and then "The Four Beauties of the Spring Palace".

The paintings of the same person have very different styles, but the combination of the five paintings reveals a kind of weirdness, which makes Lin Yi think of a word--- "pink skeleton".

Since these five scroll paintings are so weird, what is in this wooden box?

Lin Yi's curiosity resurfaced, and he reached out to open the wooden box---

A strong smell of sandalwood came to my nose.

Could it be that this wooden box is actually made of sandalwood?

Sandalwood is a good thing, especially bracelets, Buddhist beads, and Buddhist supplies made of sandalwood, which are very popular in the market and the price is also very high.

Now, if the box in front of me is made of sandalwood, it will be worth at least tens of thousands of dollars according to the weight and age.

What kind of treasure could such a good wooden letter contain?

Lin Yi was very curious and guessed that it was likely to be Buddhist scriptures or religious items.

Otherwise, it would have ruined such a good sandalwood box.

But what made Lin Yi lose his big teeth was that there was a book in the box, to be precise, a thread-bound book, and a line of words was written in red pen on the book---The world's first lewd-book: "The Legend of the Crazy Woman"! (To be continued.) )
