The new Guangdong Museum is located in Zhujiang New Town, which is also a landmark building, next to the towering skyscraper. Opposite the entrance is the vast garden square, where the Grand Theater, the library, the West Tower, the Canton Tower, Haixinsha and so on are gathered.

As soon as Hong Tianbao and the others got out of the car, they saw the deputy curator leading all the staff to stand at the door to greet them. To Hong Tianbao's surprise, Xu Lao actually arrived one step ahead of them. In fact, Mr. Xu had already arrived in Guangzhou yesterday, and he had been entertained by the deputy curator.

Komori looked left and right, feeling new to everything around him.

Yan Lao smiled slightly, and said to Xiao Sen: "There is a children's palace next to it, and I will let Brother Hong accompany you to play in a while." ”

Sun Moba stretched his eyes, looked at the museum and said, "Who designed this building?" It's really not level, it looks like a ghost. ”

Everyone present smiled wryly, okay! The design of this museum is very famous in the country, and it has become a ghost painting symbol without level in your eyes.

"Curator, this, what about the zodiac jade snake? I have everything arranged. "The deputy curator seems to be in a hurry more than the others.

Elder Yan couldn't help laughing and said, "Let's call everyone in first!" The zodiac jade snake will not run. The deputy curator suddenly blushed and immediately beckoned everyone to come in and rest.

"Is it really the Zodiac Spirit Jade Snake?" Xu Lao got the news yesterday, which is why he rushed over even later. He thought that Hong Tianbao and the others would come back yesterday, but who knew that after arriving in Yangcheng, Yan Lao told them that they would set off again. Elder Yan nodded, and Elder Xu suddenly looked happy.

When Xu Lao and the others saw the lifelike jade snake, they were all shocked, and they couldn't take their eyes off it, and they were fascinated.

"Haha! I didn't expect that the jade snake was from our Guangdong, and this kind of superb southern jade is really rare in the world. It's a pity that Xinyi Nanyu is almost exhausted. Curator, are we going to exhibit today? The deputy curator was ecstatic.

"Don't worry, let's publicize it today, you go to the TV station and do a special interview. We're going to have a grand exhibition tomorrow, and it should have a good effect. "Director Yang is also an old man, and this order things to be done in a set and orderly manner. The deputy curator nodded immediately.

After watching it for an hour, these people gave up. At this time, Director Yang took Hong Tianbao to see the things in their pavilion.

"Haha! Curator Yang is going to present treasure again. But that golden monkey king inkstone is indeed a treasure, let's go, let's take a look. Yan Lao said with a smile.

Waiting for Director Yang to take out two inkstones, Jiang Buwu looked at it and immediately said in disappointment: "Nothing special?" A blackened stone. Director Yang almost wanted to curse, this was the best treasure in his museum, and it became a stone in the eyes of this kid.

"Don't make a sound, take your time." Hong Tianbao has also heard the legend of "one stone and three inkstones". This golden monkey king inkstone is the first of the three inkstones, which is said to be quite magical.

Duan inkstone has always been regarded as one of the "four treasures of the study", and Guangdong's "one stone and three inkstones" are famous all over the world, and the world is rare. Among the three inkstones, it is headed by the golden monkey king inkstone.

One stone and three inkstones, each side resembles the shape of an animal, which is the natural creation of nature and a wonder in the world. Among these three inkstones, one side resembles a monkey, which is the golden monkey king inkstone; One side is like a crane, and it is a crane inkstone; One side is like a lying cow, and it is a green cow inkstone. Now the Guangdong Museum has collected the golden monkey king inkstone and crane inkstone, and another green cow inkstone has never been seen.

"These two stones...... Inkstone, what kind of monkey king inkstone is that? Sun Moba asked.

"Look carefully at the pattern above, one side is the Monkey King inkstone, and the other side is the crane inkstone." Hong Tianbao also knew that this museum housed these two inkstone kings.

Take a closer look, only to see the golden monkey king inkstone is 25.5 centimeters long, 17.6 centimeters wide, rectangular, the texture is delicate and warm, delicate and delicate like children's skin, there is a large piece of fish brain jelly (a kind of stone pattern) in the inkstone, surrounded by fire and other colors, forming a squatting macaque pattern, even the eyes, nose, mouth and forefeet are clearly visible, very realistic.

Director Yang explained: "One stone and three inkstones have quite a origin. When Zhang Zhidong was the governor of Liangguang in the Qing Dynasty, he had a consultant surnamed He to preside over the development of Daxi Cave in Zhaoqing, and obtained a piece of high-quality stone, so he asked a famous craftsman to make this three-sided inkstone according to the shape. This natural stone and the carving of skilled craftsmen make this tripartite inkstone a unique and rare treasure. ”

"Isn't there just an animal motif on it? Nothing unusual! It's not as good as the boss's cups. Sun Moba looked at it for a while, and suddenly lost interest, feeling that it was still the boss's weird thing. He, like Jiang Buwu, was not interested in these things.

Everyone knew that this guy was referring to the Beauty Cup, and Director Yang was suddenly choked up and speechless. Halfway through, he said, "There is no comparison, the Beauty Cup is a higher-level existence." ”

Hong Tianbao was a little strange, he found that there seemed to be a thin layer of substance stuck to the pattern. This layer of material is like transparent glue, and if Hong Tianbao doesn't look at it carefully, he can't see it. He looked inside through this layer of substance, and immediately saw that something was a little tired.

The part of the monkey king pattern is not the same stone as the other parts of the inkstone, it is a transparent stone. Transparent chime stone is a refining material, and Hong Tianbao also learned about it in a jade pupil not long ago, and it can be used when refining battle armor.

It is a hydrophilic substance, and everything in the water will be repelled by it, even the minerals in it. Therefore, no matter how dirty the water is, within its confines it becomes pure water, truly pure water. Therefore, when used on the Warframe, the Warframe will have a purification function.

"Not necessarily." Hong Tianbao said suddenly.

The others were stunned, and then Yan Lao smiled and said: "Although this monkey king inkstone is a natural creation of nature and is very rare, it is indeed not enough compared to the beauty cup. ”

Hong Tianbao raised his head and glanced at everyone, then shook his head and said, "This Monkey King Yan also has a very magical side, but you haven't seen it yet." It is said that when this Monkey King inkstone and the other two inkstones were first developed, the ink on the pattern would become clear. ”

"That's a legend, don't take it seriously." Expert Chen immediately said.

Hong Tianbao still shook his head, he didn't bother to explain, he looked up and said to Director Yang: "Give me a blade and prepare some ink." I'll give it a try. ”

Seeing Hong Tianbao is serious, not like a joke. Elder Yan and Elder Xu both frowned, and they also felt that Hong Tianbao should have seen something. Director Yang immediately asked someone to prepare, and he also had some expectations in his heart.

"Hey! What do you see? Tang Xin also picked up the other crane inkstone, looked up and down, but couldn't find the problem.

"You'll know in a while, where are there so many problems?" Hong Tianbao said without raising his head.

"Ugh! If you don't say it, don't say it, hum! Pretend to be a mysterious guy. Tang said indignantly. Luo Sainan immediately smiled and hugged Tang Xin's fragrant shoulder, signaling her not to be angry.

After taking the blade, Hong Tianbao was about to scrape on the pattern, Director Yang and the others were shocked, and hurriedly stopped: "Don't!" "They all jumped in horror, the most precious thing about this monkey king inkstone is the pattern, it was scratched by you like this, scratched, it would be bad!

"Hee-hee! You bastard wouldn't want to ruin this inkstone, would you? Be careful that Director Yang is desperate for you! Tang Xinjiao said with a smile, now she finally got back to the field just now.

"Alas! I said do you want to see the real Monkey King Yan? Hong Tianbao said helplessly.

Others have to think about it, it's no joke, no one can afford to take this responsibility. Curator Yang frowned and said, "What should I do if I scratch this monkey king inkstone?" ”

"Don't worry! No, if it is really scratched, I will leave the jade snake to you as the treasure of the town hall. Hong Tianbao also made a promise.

When Director Yang heard this, he was immediately overjoyed, and he actually hoped that he accidentally missed and scratched the inkstone. Compared with the Monkey King Yan and the Zodiac Jade Snake, he still knows which is more important. He immediately said, "Good! This is what you said, Yan Lao and Xu Lao testified. ”

Seeing that everyone had no opinions, Hong Tianbao held down the inkstone with one hand and the knife in the other, laid the blade flat, and cut it to the transparent substance. He carefully picked up the transparent substance, and in a few moments, he had made the whole film-like thing out. The others were surprised, especially Director Yang, who had been looking at this Monkey King Yan for many years, but he didn't realize that there was still a layer of this thing on it.

"What is this?" An expert couldn't help but ask.

Hong Tianbao also shook his head and replied: "I don't know, but this thing covers the magic of the Monkey King Yan." Well! Take the ink, and I'll see if it's as magical as the legend goes. Although Hong Tianbao already knew the result, he couldn't help but try it himself.

Director Yang and the others were pleasantly surprised, and they all had high hopes for the Monkey King Yan after processing, hoping to give them a surprise. Director Yang personally opened the ink bottle and handed it to Hong Tianbao.

Hong Tianbao took the small bottle of ink, slowly poured seventy percent into the Monkey King inkstone, and then quietly observed the changes inside.

Everyone noticed that the ink near the pattern began to rotate slowly, and the black ink began to fade at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in about ten seconds, the ink that was originally covered on it became clear water.

Seeing this scene, except for Hong Tianbao, everyone present stared at each other and couldn't say a word. Halfway through, Komori broke the silence: "Big brother! Why is this place cleared with monkeys? ”

The others came back to their senses and were amazed. The happiest is that Director Yang and other museum people, by Hong Tianbao like this, the value of this monkey king inkstone has been raised a grade, with this magic, the two inkstones chase the beauty cup, but unfortunately the whereabouts of the Qingniu inkstone are unknown, otherwise it can definitely be on an equal footing with the beauty cup.

Curator Yang immediately picked up the blade and prepared to remove the transparent material on the crane inkstone. Hong Tianbao said with a smile: "It's better for me to come!" This layer is quite difficult to deal with, and if you are not careful, you will destroy the pattern on it. After hearing this, Director Yang immediately gave it to Hong Tianbao, and hurriedly thanked him. He found that this young man was really his lucky star, and this time brought him so much good luck.
