Chapter 128: Good Things to Hide

"Master, so, this ingot of ancient ink is really Li Mo?" Old Zheng asked in an eager tone.

Master Zu nodded solemnly and said, "Yes, I think so. This piece of ink is light, smells sweet, hard as jade, and it has the characteristics of good Hui ink, plus this piece of ink knows that it is a very old ink, like the ink with such a good texture and a long history, only Li Mo is enough for this grid, right? Although it doesn't say that it is Li Mo, if you want to be 100% sure you can't, but you can basically conclude that it is a piece of Li Mo! 'It's easy to get money, but it's hard to find Li Mo', this thing is really very precious! ”

"Master, you have to be right, it makes sense." Zheng Lao said happily, "Just now you put that piece of ink into the clear water to do identification, right?" ”

I only heard Master Zu reply seriously: "This is a more critical step, and the best ink will not melt when it encounters water." The story with you is related to Li Mo. In ancient times, there was a nobleman who did not want to drop a piece of Li ink into the pool, he thought that the ink would be bad when it met with blisters, so he did not fish it out. After more than a month, when he was drinking by the pool, he dropped a gold vessel into the pool, and then he sent someone to go into the water to find it, and when the next person groped in the pool water, he not only touched the gold object, but also touched the ingot Li Mo. I saw that the light color of the ingot Li Mo had not changed after the blister, and the surface and the inside were as new. Legend has it that the real Li ink will not deteriorate after being soaked in water for three years, while the general ink is easy to melt after being stained with water due to its low density, at least it will change, but you also knew it just now, this piece of ink has not changed in the slightest for so long in the water, which can prove that the texture is fine and not easy to be eroded by water. ”

"Oh, I see!" Elder Zheng nodded.

He Qing and Lin Haitao on the side also suddenly realized in their hearts, after getting this answer from the ancestor master, He Qing finally put his mind at ease, what else did he have to worry about after getting the approval of the top master, it was undoubtedly Li Mo.

"That's all that's the time to qualify." Master Zu then said, "If you still want to do the next step of identification, then there is a more practical method." ”

"What is it?" Zheng Lao was surprised.

Master Zu explained one by one: "That is a comparison of the calligraphy and painting written with Li Mo, whether there is an essential similarity between the pen and ink on the calligraphy and painting and the ink used on this piece of ink. The ancient literati appreciated the quality of ink, paying attention to light smoke, glue aging, uniform material, and pestle. He used 12 kinds of raw materials, such as musk, croton, rhino horn, pearl, and jade shavings, to pound 100,000 pestles per dose to finalize the ink. Li Mo can be anti-corrosion and moth-proof, long-term storage unchanged, fragrant and refreshing when researching, smooth and not sluggish when writing, and the ink does not fade for a long time. I have a collection of calligraphy and paintings in my room, which are said to have been painted by Li Mo. However, you have to grind some ink down with this method. He, the thing is yours, you have to think of yourself, this ingot is Li Mo, there is no problem. ”

He Qing seemed to hesitate and said, "Grandpa Zu, let's try it." You are a calligrapher, and it is perfect to compare the writing effect of this piece of ink with Li Mo's works! ”

Master Zu was pleased: "Okay, try it, I never dreamed of writing with Li Mo, I didn't think I would have such a good opportunity today!" In fact, you don't have to worry about losing this ink, you can grind a little bit. Xu Xuan, a calligrapher and writer in the Song Dynasty, got a spindle of Li Mo when he was a child, about a foot long, and cherished it very much. He used this ink with his brother and wrote at least 5,000 words a day, but it took him ten years to run out! ”

"I know." He Qing replied with a smile, "It's a great honor for me to invite you to test the ink!" ”

Master Zu praised: "You can get this piece of ink, it shows that you are lucky and your eyesight is also very good!" I don't know where you got it. ”

He Qing truthfully told the ancestor the origin of the piece of Li Mo, and the two looked at each other after hearing it, and Zheng Lao smiled and said, "Then you really picked up a big leak!" It only cost more than 10,000 yuan, and now it's not a piece of Li Mo, and it's definitely more than that, right?! ”

Master Zu nodded in agreement and said, "Ancient ink with this quality can be a priceless treasure!" Li Mo is what modern calligraphers and painters can't seek! If a very famous painter paints with Li Mo, then the price of his work will at least double, right?! ”

He Qing smiled: "But I haven't tried the ink yet, I don't know how the effect of calligraphy and painting is." Grandpa, do you want to try your pen now? ”

Master Zu nodded and said, "Well, let's give it a try, it's okay to write a few words." ”

"Haitao, go and prepare the brush and paper." Zheng Lao hurriedly greeted.

Lin Haitao agreed, and said, "Grandpa, what kind of pen and paper to use, I don't have any good brushes here." ”

Master Zu replied: "It's okay in general, but it's better to take the inkstone well, so as not to damage this piece of ink." ”

"yes, got it." Lin Haitao agreed, and then turned around and ran to get something.

After a while, Lin Haitao came over with a pen, paper, and the "three" treasures of the inkstone study, and saw that the inkstone he brought was very exquisite, like a rosewood inkstone, carved with dragons and phoenixes, and the craftsmanship was very exquisite.

"Master, I'll grind some ink for you." Zheng Lao took the initiative to ask.

He Qing hurriedly said: "Old Zheng, how can you come to this job in person?" Let me do it anyway. ”

As soon as he said this, Zheng Lao and Master Zu couldn't help but be surprised, Lin Haitao was puzzled: "Brother Qing, do you grind ink?" Do you also like to write with faults? ”

He Qing smiled and said: "Yes, I like it more, I used to practice calligraphy often, but the words have not grown." ”

Lin Haitao said: "But most of you used ready-made ink at that time, right?" Have you tried this ink grinding too? This is a technical job, and if you don't use it, you may not be able to do it. ”

He Qing nodded confidently and said, "I also learned this, so there should be no problem." Grandpa, I'll come. ”

Before seeing that piece of ancient ink, He Qing really didn't know anything about grinding ink, which had nothing to do with him at all, but now it was not what it used to be, he had learned superb ink grinding techniques through that piece of ink not long ago, which was naturally easy for him.

"Well, it's better if you come there yourself." Master Zu said happily.

So He Qing began to clean the inkstone, he first cleaned the inkstone, and then added a little water to the inkstone.

In ancient times, grinding ink ingots was grinding while adding water to the inkstone pond, and this time it was just a few words, so there was no need to add a lot of water, a little was enough, as for the proportion of ink and water, He Qing was clear in his heart.

Seeing that He Qing methodically started to study ink from the inkstone, Zheng Lao and the others were a little surprised, thinking that he really had two strokes, and he had learned a lot of things at an age.

When He Qing was handily grinding the ink, he barely made any sound, and the ancestor next to him, who was staring at this scene intently, said solemnly: "Grinding is clear, and the research is silent, which is also a major characteristic of Li Mo!" The texture of the high-grade ink is fine, the so-called fine refers to the tight texture, the grinding particles are delicate, followed by the color of black and bright, with black purple light as the best, pure black second, green light and second, and the gum quality is moderate, too heavy sticky pen, too light is not thick. Therefore, the ink is selected with fine texture, smooth color, glue is not heavy, and the inkstone is silent, and it is not appropriate if the glue is heavy and has impurities. From all aspects, it can be judged that He's ink is the best in ink! ”

After grinding for a while, the clear water in the inkstone pond has turned into jet-black ink, and when the ink ingot is finally taken out, He Qing mixed the ink block in the pool water for a while, and then took it out and cleaned it.

"Grandpa, can you write now?" After that, He Qing asked rhetorically.

"yes, that's fine." Master Zu nodded.

Then he picked up the pen, lightly dipped it in ink and began to write on a large piece of paper.

The type of brush he used was relatively large, and the strokes of the words he wrote were naturally larger.

Master Beizu is over 100 years old, and he is old, but he still has a certain amount of arm strength, and when he holds the pen, his arms and fingers 97ks do not have any unnatural tremors, and he is as steady as Mount Tai.

The grandfather's pen is vigorous and powerful, and every action of writing with a pen is so chic and atmospheric.

The first one he wrote was the traditional Chinese character "wind", followed by the second one was "hua".

A total of four words were written, united into an idiom, reading "in the prime of life", the whole thing at a glance went up to the dragon and the phoenix danced, very powerful.

"Not bad! Good ink! Truly a little like lacquer, the handwriting is not a little stagnant and sluggish! After writing and putting down the pen, Master Zu was very satisfied with those four words, and he was not satisfied with his own calligraphy, but with the quality of the ink.

The ancient ink that has been preserved for thousands of years has its own unique charm!

"The handwriting is so good!" He Qing admired from the bottom of his heart.

Master Zu turned his head and said, "As long as it's the credit of Mo!" He, I will give you these four words, you are young, but you have such eyesight, and your future in this industry is limitless! ”

"Thank you, thank you!" He Qing was surprised and delighted and thanked, Master Su Wen Zu is a very famous calligrapher, he is "a thousand words", and it is naturally a great honor to have his ink treasure.

Master Zu smiled and said, "You're welcome." But I have a reluctant request, can you give me the rest of the ink? I can take it back and use it, so that it can be compared with the Li Moshu paintings in my collection. ”

"Of course!" He Qing agreed without hesitation, "Grandpa Zu, there's still a little bit of ink missing, right?" I'll grind you a little more. ”

Then he couldn't help but pick up the ingot and continue grinding the ink.

In the eyes of Master Zu, they were all very happy.

At the end, Master Zu said: "He, your piece of ink is basically Li Mo, you have to collect it well, don't sell such a good thing to others!" ”

He Qing nodded vigorously and said, "Well, I won't, I'll collect it well!" ”

After the two exchanged pleasantries for a while, Master Zu said goodbye and left "Jianbao Zhai".

"Brother Qing, it's so godly! Congratulations, you actually picked up a priceless piece of Li Mo from Boss Liu's shop! Lin Haitao said excitedly, "If Boss Liu knew about this matter, I don't know if he would be so angry that he would vomit blood!" You're revenge! ”

He Qing said: "Don't go out about this piece of ink, this is a piece of Li ink, you can't let Boss Liu know, so as not to have any accidents, if this is a fake, you can give him this piece of ink." Even though I'm taking advantage of him now, I still can't swallow this bad breath, I can't just forget it! ”

"Of course you can't forget it!" Lin Haitao nodded heavily and said, "Oh, Brother Qing, aren't you, people coming?!" The show is about to begin! ”

Looking in the direction Lin Haitao pointed, I saw a young man walking in quickly at the door, the man was vibrant, but his appearance was simple and honest.
