"Isn't it, you don't even know Brother Xiao?" Qian Le was even more surprised. "I don't know my father, and you don't know Brother Xiao, so it's only Brother Wang Ding, Brother Wang Ding, take a look, this baby was picked up by you, you should be able to know what this text is, right?"
Wang Ding didn't pay attention to the words on it just now, and Wang Ding, who has the special ability of language and writing, is indeed better than ordinary people in terms of literacy.
"I'll take a look."
Wang Ding took the magic weapon again, and he carefully studied the twenty-four words on the outline of the mirror, and the aura on the jade plate rushed into the surface of the magic weapon in the next second.
Wang Ding actually saw the content of the text.
"This is the symbol of the 24 solar terms."
"Isn't it? Do you understand? Qian Le felt that Wang Ding was joking, and hummed: "You mean that this word represents a solar term?" ”
"What's so strange about that."
Wang Ding is not a Hu person, he did use a jade plate to translate these twenty-four words.
This will laugh next to him: "After all, it is ancient Chinese, not modern vernacular." Classical Chinese pays attention to the so-called subtle meaning, and each word contains many layers of meaning. ”
"Wang Ding is right." Qian Lao actually had it just now, this is the heavenly stem and the earth's branch, the twenty-four solar terms. It's just that he wasn't so sure, but now Wang Ding saw it, and said with a smile: "The meaning of classical Chinese is very complicated. And each text is in the process of evolving. There will also be changes. to each specific period. will be stipulated. Therefore, there will be a distinction between seal script, official script, and regular script. At the time of evolution, there were also many words with repetitive meanings, and everyone only used one as the standard, and the others that were not used became the so-called variant characters. ”
Everyone nodded again and again, understanding what Qian Lao meant, maybe the twenty-four words on the back of the mirror belong to this situation.
"No matter, even if it is. Then this Tang Dynasty feng shui glazed ritual must be very valuable. I'm going to take a photograph of the first significant antique I've ever come across. ”
Qian Le grinned, took out his mobile phone and slapped it at the back of the mirror, then flipped the mirror over, raised it slightly, and continued to take pictures.
This kid loves to post on Weibo, he must be thinking about exposing this treasure, others still think he picked it up, and they will suddenly think that he has a lot of taste.
Wrong....
When Qian Le changed his angle, Wang Ding frowned imperceptibly. Because under the observation of special abilities, the purple flame of the East and West Treasure Light rose. It is more blazing than the sun, which shows that the age of this mirror is very old, and it must have surpassed the Tang Dynasty.
Isn't this from the Tang Dynasty? Did you just go into a misunderstanding?
"The ancient mirror of the Tang Dynasty roughly has the four gods and twelve zodiac patterns, the grape pattern of the beast, the pattern of flowers and birds, the pattern of the Rui pattern, the mirror of the fairy figure, the pattern of the dragon, the pattern of the eight trigrams, the pattern of ten thousand characters, etc...... This mirror should be a combination of the four gods and twelve zodiac patterns and the eight trigram patterns. ”
Xiao Changyi and Qian Lao were still discussing on the side.
Wang Ding was a little confused. However, at this time, the jade plate, aura, and brilliance all indicate that the antiquities were in the Tang Dynasty, and even before the Tang Dynasty, but they could not clearly give the date, as Brother Xiao said, he also thought that this thing was a feng shui instrument of the Tang Dynasty, and the royal family of the Tang Dynasty respected Taoism the most, regarded Lao Tzu Li Er as an ancestor, and most likely ordered the craftsman to burn such a glass mirror.
After all, the firing technique of the glaze is only in the hands of the royal family, and judging from the shape and ornamentation of the back of the mirror, it is clearly a Taoist feng shui mirror.
If there is no special ability, after hearing Xiao Changyi's reasoning and what he sees, Wang Ding will really think that this is the glass mirror of the Tang Dynasty.
However, the light emitted by the ability definitely shows that this thing is more aged, but what is the problem, and how to prove that this thing was before the Tang Dynasty.
…… Thinking of this, Wang Ding subconsciously looked at the glass mirror. At this moment, he saw a miraculous phenomenon, which made his gaze freeze for a while. At the same time, Qian Le also finished taking the photo and was about to put down his hand holding the mirror. As soon as his hand moved, the magical situation that Wang Ding saw swayed.
At the right time, Wang Ding was anxious, and hurriedly shouted: "Don't move!" ”
"Huh?"
Qian Le was stunned, and only after half a sound did he say in a daze: "What's wrong?" ”
"Hold the mirror up and look at the ground." Wang Ding was very surprised by what he saw.
What was even more surprised than Wang Ding was Qian Le, Qian Le blinked, although he was confused, but he still followed Wang Ding's instructions, held the mirror in his hand high, and then looked down at the ground. "Big brother, what are you going to do?"
"No, don't move yet!"
Because there is a light behind Qian Le, the light is very sufficient, shining on the crystal clear glass mirror, naturally reflecting a brilliant colorful brilliance.
"Look at the ground."
At this moment, Wang Ding's words, no one paid attention to the rainbow light above, but lowered their heads to pay attention to the shadow on the ground. In an instant, several people saw a very unusual scene, which made them dumbfounded, dumbfounded, and in disbelief.
At this time, I saw the mirror reflected in the shadow of the ground, and the patterns such as unicorn, turtle, dragon, phoenix and tiger, gossip symbols, and zodiac signs clearly appeared, including the twenty-four words, all of which were delicate and meticulous.
After a long time, Xiao Changyi sighed and came back to his senses, which was a gentle exclamation: "The translucent mirror ......"
"What, this is the legendary translucent mirror?" Qian Le came to his senses, and the hand holding the mirror retracted, the mirror was not illuminated by light, and the pattern and text on the back of the mirror were no longer presented.
"That's right, it's a translucent mirror."
Xiao Changyi's eyes were full of excitement and surprise, and he sighed softly: "Similar to this kind of translucent mirror, I once saw one in a museum in the capital, and it is also the only translucent mirror in the road that I know. Unexpectedly, there is another translucent mirror in the world, and the ornamental pattern is more complex and exquisite. ”
"In other words, this is the Han Mirror, not the Tang Mirror." Wang Ding said with a smile, after all, he had already made psychological preparations in advance, so he would naturally not be so shocked.
"That's right." Xiao Changyi groaned and nodded slowly: "This kind of translucent mirror, according to research, was developed in the middle and late Western Han Dynasty, but after the Han Dynasty, the technique of making mirrors was lost. Later, Shen Kuo of the Northern Song Dynasty recorded this in Mengxi Writings, and studied its production principle. ”
However, Mengxi Pen Tan had no influence at that time, and it was a miscellaneous book that was not valued by scholars. Even if someone reads this article, at most they sigh that there are such good things in the world, but no one has ever wanted to re-develop the translucent lens according to the principle. Therefore, under normal circumstances, unless it is a fake made in modern times, the translucent mirror is a thing of the Han Dynasty. ”
Modern fakes, this sentence is unstable for everyone! (To be continued......)
