Facing the stone that Bian He handed over, Tang Dou didn't have the slightest excitement, he reached out to take the stone, sat down beside Bian He, didn't look at the stone, but looked at Bian He and asked, "Why did the old man conclude that there must be beautiful jade hidden in this stone?" ”

Bian He raised his eyebrows, looked at Tang Dou and said: "The old man saw with his own eyes that there was a phoenix coming to the ceremony, and the colorful phoenix fell on this stone to attract worship, attracting hundreds of birds to worship." As the saying goes, the phoenix does not fall into the land of no treasure, if this stone does not contain a treasure, how can it attract the phoenix to settle down? ”

Tang Dou didn't know what kind of bird the phoenix Bian He was talking about, but he believed that there was no need for Bian He to deceive him with lies.

At this time, Bian He was just a reluctant treasure donor, and was even considered crazy, and he was just a stranger, at most a stranger who was mistaken for the son of a wealthy family, and there was no connection between the two people.

Tang Dou touched the rough skin of the stone on his leg, looked at Bian He and asked, "Then why does the old man have to dedicate this treasure to the king, even if he wants to offer it, isn't it good for the old man to peel out the treasure in this stone and then give it to the king." ”

Bian He puffed up his chest and said: "This treasure is auspicious from the sky, and it can only be owned by the identity of the king." As a Chu person, the old man got this strange treasure, and he should have presented it to the king. However, the old man does have the intention to peel this treasure out and then present it to the king, but unfortunately the old man is just a stonemason, although he is confident that he has some confidence in peeling the stone, but he is also afraid of hurting the treasure in the stone, this treasure also needs to be slowly peeled out by the jade craftsman with a delicate tool. It's just that the old man looked for a few jade craftsmen, but he was ridiculed by those craftsmen for the old man's whimsy, and even said that the old man was a crazy person, but it was ridiculous that there were so many people with eyes and no beads in this world, sad, sad. ”

Tang Dou was relieved, it turned out that Bian He had also thought about peeling out the beautiful jade and then offering it to the King of Chu, but he was suffering from the lack of delicate tools, or he was worried that his craftsmanship was not good enough to damage the beautiful jade in the stone, so he nodded lightly. Only then did he seriously lower his head and look at the stone in his hand.

This stone containing He's Bi looks only the size of a football, and the specifications are uneven, one end is big and the other is small, about twenty or thirty pounds. The surface looks rough and full of pits, which is no different from those ordinary stones all over the mountains, because after being held by Bian He for several years, the surface of the stone has been polished out in some places. But no matter how you look at it, it's just an ordinary stone, and it's no wonder that King Chu Li would add a crime of bullying to Bian He.

Tang Dou flipped over and looked at the stone in his hand for a long time and didn't see any doorway, and couldn't help but feel a little itchy, wanting to carefully explore how the stone containing He's bi was different from ordinary stones.

Tang Dou looked at no one around here, and he was not afraid of scaring Bian He, so he reached out and took out a ten-fold magnifying glass from his big sleeve, opened it and put his eyes together to observe it carefully.

Bian He was really attracted by the novelty that Tang Dou took out, there are no wonders in the world, Bian He is also a person with some knowledge, although he has never seen the magnifying glass in Tang Dou's hand. However, there was no excessive surprise.

Under the ten-fold magnifying glass, Tang Dou quickly discovered some abnormalities of this stone, in the belly position of this stone, there is a stone about the thickness of the incense stick that is looser than other parts, and there are intermittently one or two greenish blue mangs dotted among them, if it is not examined with a ten-fold magnifying glass, the naked eye will definitely not see the subtle changes.

Tang Dou remembered some of the knowledge about gambling stones that Gao Mingde had mentioned to him, and it seemed that this ribbon stone with the thickness of incense should be the 'python' that the people who gambled on the stone said, but I don't know if this python should be regarded as a big python or a small python.

However, Tang Dou knew in his heart, regardless of whether this python was a big python or a small python. This stone must contain the legendary Heshibi.

Cao Cao once said that He's Bi is a moonlight gem because of its blue color and white when it looks at it squarely. That is, the turquoise in the jewelry house of later generations.

Cao Cao's inference comes from "Han Feizi", which should be more credible.

Tang Dou can also be regarded as a big bubble in the antique shop, and after following Zhou Lao to learn art, the level is also good, and there is Yang Yiyan, a leader by his side, from time to time to point a few words, for jade identification is also considered to have some level, at this moment he has identified that the few gemstone luster hidden in the python belt are indeed like turquoise. At this time, it is also ready to move.

Tang Dou's impatience was not to hold this stone and immediately start the teleportation ring and fly back, not to mention whether it was done or not, it was really turquoise that was not a particularly precious gem in his own time, and he went back with such a piece of rough stone, even if he solved the best turquoise from it, it was estimated that it would be sold for a price of several million, and it was definitely not named after Bian He.

Tang Dou didn't know whether Bian He's purpose in offering the treasure was to seek fame or profit, or out of infinite loyalty to the Chu State, but Tang Dou believed that if he wanted to get this rough stone, he would definitely have a way to persuade Bian He to transfer this rough stone to himself.

But without Bian He's He's Bi, is it still He's Bi?

There is no need to answer this question at all, the reason why He's bi is precious, in addition to the value of the jade itself, is mostly derived from Bian He's sacrifice process at the cost of his life.

In fact, the purpose of Tang Dou's trip was to confirm the material of He's Bi, and he wanted to get He's Bi, which he would not try to get until He's Bi was really formed, instead of just taking a piece of rough stone back.

But at this moment, seeing the few points of gem luster revealed on this rough stone, Tang Dou's heart itched even more.

Judging from these points, the gems contained in this stone are indeed very similar to turquoise, but they are not peeled off, and Tang Dou is not very sure.

Tang Dou thought for a long time, finally put away the magnifying glass, raised his head to look at Bian He and said: "Uncle, with my experience, I dare to conclude that this stone does contain a peerless jade, just now the old man said that he didn't dare to peel the stone by himself because there are no delicate tools, the old man said to listen, see what delicate tools you need, maybe I can help my husband get it." ”

Bian He's eyes lit up immediately, and he stared at Tang Dou fiercely and asked, "Childe can help the old man get tools for peeling jade?" ”

Tang Dou nodded with a smile and said affirmatively, "Yes." ”

Bian He raised his eyebrows, looked at Tang Dou and asked, "I don't know what the son wants?" ”

Tang Dou laughed: "There is nothing else to ask for, my husband can let me see Baoyu come out with my own eyes, and my wish is enough." ”

Bian He stood up and bowed: "If the son can help me peel the jade, the old man will respect the son as the master." ”

Tang Dou smiled and put down the stone in his hand, put his hands together and said with a smile: "The old man doesn't have to be like this, don't live here in the next, at least ten days and more than half a month will definitely return, and then I will see the old man's calcite with my own eyes, if it really contains precious jade, the old man will definitely be famous all over the world." ”

Bian He hurriedly and modestly, Tang Dou smiled secretly in his heart, this is all written in the history books, can it be wrong? I just pushed a small handful in the back, so that history has accelerated some pace, but I just hope that this small handful I pushed will not change the future and the fate of the family. (To be continued.) )
