"Everyone, please see, the real value of this magic weapon is not the gossip copper turtle outside, but the things inside."

Zheng Tianlong held the thing in his hand high, first let everyone see it clearly, and then handed it to Wang Gang.

Wang Gang took it and took a deep breath, in fact, when Zheng Tianlong cut open the gossip copper turtle and revealed this piece of things, he knew that Zheng Tianlong had indeed missed it again this time.

"Longevity lock, this is longevity lock! Good stuff indeed, worth 3 million! ”

Without the package of the gossip copper turtle outside, Wang Gang identified the true value of the longevity lock in less than a minute.

"Ahh Is it really a leak?! ”

"How is this possible? Zheng Tianlong's luck is a little too good, right? You can pick up any of these leaks! ”

"Cut, where is this luck? It's people's good eye, there is a gossip copper turtle package outside, if it's you, can you see it? ”

"This is also true, I have to take it, it seems that this Zheng Tianlong does have a set!"

…… The longevity lock is also commonly known as the "Baijia Lock" or "Baijia Bao Lock", which is a kind of magic weapon used to wish children health and longevity, suppress frightening evil spirits, and drive away disasters and diseases.

The predecessor of the longevity lock was called "longevity", which evolved from Zhu Suo. "The Book of the Later Han Dynasty - Chronicles of Etiquette" contains: "On the fifth day of May, Zhu Suo's five-color seal is a door decoration to prevent evil spirits. ”

In the Han Dynasty, Zhu Suo was the Dragon Boat Festival portal ornament, made of five-color silk, the colors were green, red, white, black, yellow, representing the five elements of yin and yang, but also symbolizing the east, south, west, north and center, so although the five-color silk is only a simple silk thread, but because of the five elements of divine power, it can suppress the evil spirits and drive away evil spirits.

During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, there were many wars, plagues, and famines, and people often used a large number of five-colored silk threads to pray for peace. With the passage of time, the longevity wisps later evolved into locks made of copper, jade, gold, etc., which were later called longevity locks.

"Master Tianyi, the appearance of the longevity lock was in the Song Dynasty, I don't know if that's the case?"

Wang Gang is a master of magic weapon identification, his knowledge is naturally extremely wide, and he has also studied magic weapons such as longevity locks, but he has never figured out this problem, and now that he has such an opportunity, he naturally wants to figure it out.

Finding that Tianyi was looking at him, Zheng Tianlong understood that he was trying to let himself talk.

"It seems that Tianyi is also a sophisticated person."

Zheng Tianlong turned this thought in his heart, today is his own opening, and the opportunity to perform can make himself a big plus, Tianyi saw this, so even if Wang Gang asked him for advice, he gave the opportunity to himself.

Today is his own field, Tianyi has given up the opportunity, Zheng Tianlong himself will not be polite, nodded and said, "That's it, I'll talk about it." ”

"It is well documented that the time when the longevity wisp appeared was indeed in the Song Dynasty. For example, the child painted on the Southern Song Dynasty Su Han "Hundred Sons of Changchun" in the museum of Tai~North is wearing a longevity lock, which is a typical collar lock, and at the same time, this painting also depicts a child wearing a longevity thread. Moreover, this is not the only one, another painting also painted by Su Zhuo in the Song Dynasty "Duanyang Playing Baby" also appears in the same portrait. From this, it can be seen that in the Song Dynasty, the longevity and the longevity lock existed at the same time, so it is certain that the longevity thread appeared in the Song Dynasty in the process of evolution and changed from 'thread' to 'lock'. ”

"I see, this question has been bothering me for a long time, and now it has finally been figured out."

For the two paintings mentioned by Zheng Tianlong, Wang Gang didn't know before, if it was really as Zheng Tianlong said, then the appearance of the longevity lock was in the Song Dynasty. On the surface, this kind of information may seem unrelated to the identification of ritual weapons, but in fact it is crucial.

After knowing this information, if someone takes out one and says it is from the Tang Dynasty when the longevity lock is identified, it must be a fake, and there is no need to look at it at all.

For feng shui masters like Zheng Tianlong, Tianyi and Wang Gang, the identification of magic weapons can naturally determine the value through looking at qi, but if you want ordinary people to believe in feng shui masters and ordinary people, then you have to say a reason, so the information like what Zheng Tianlong said just now is very important.

"Tianlong, you just said that the longevity lock is also called the Baijia lock, what does this mean?"

Yang Xin's voice immediately attracted everyone's attention, there was no way, her temperament was too outstanding, and it was impossible not to attract people's attention.

Seeing that everyone looked at herself all at once, Yang Xin was stunned for a moment, the main reason why she opened her mouth was to help Zheng Tianlong "extend" the topic related to the longevity lock, which could show Zheng Tianlong's deep knowledge in the identification of magic weapons, but she didn't expect that her words were certainly helping Zheng Tianlong, but she also "exposed" herself, especially her title of "Tianlong" made people realize that the relationship between her and Zheng Tianlong was not ordinary, because if it was just a relationship between customers or peers, will only call Zheng Tianlong "Master Zheng".

Of course, these are just unspeakable things, and no one will say it, but many people are jealous of Zheng Tianlong's Yan~Fu.

Zheng Tianlong naturally would not waste Yang Xin's kindness, and immediately said: "The hundred locks are one of the long-life locks, and they are also the most precious one, because this kind of long-life locks borrow the blessings of hundreds of families, and the children who wear such long-life locks mean 'eating a hundred meals' and 'wearing a hundred families', and they can naturally ward off evil and grow up safely." Generally speaking, there are three ways to make 100 locks: the first is to collect money from relatives and friends, ask for a little from each household, and use the money to make long-life locks for children after 100 families, or recognize godfathers and godmothers, and godfathers and godmothers pay to make long-life locks; The second is to beg for money from the shops to make the longevity lock, this way is particularly popular in the Beijing market, the way is the same as the monk's Taoism, the child's family begs along the streets and alleys of the shops, each family only needs a very small amount of money (in ancient times it was often a penny), and after making enough, it is used to make the longevity lock for the child to wear; As for the third one, it is to recognize the monks as teachers, and these monks and teachers put them on to children, I think this way Master Tianyi is more familiar with. ”

"Amitabha, yes, Master Zheng is right, this last way is more familiar to me."
