Chapter 547: Two Strange Curios
"With your words, I'm full, okay, let's look at the things below." Zheng Lao nodded with satisfaction, as a master, the greatest glory is not that the apprentice is proud of the master, but that the master is proud of the apprentice, he didn't expect that more than half a year ago, the little apprentice he accepted, in less than a year, has grown to such an amazing point now.
Gao Cunzhi took out Fu Shan's calligraphy from the box on the side, "Master, this is the calligraphy of Fu Shan's miscellaneous calligraphy obtained by Xiao Yi from the treasure map obtained by accident." ”
Zheng Lao gently took this piece of calligraphy, slowly unfolded it, and the handwriting of the Huayan Sutra came into view, and then two Tang poems appeared, which made people feel extremely unique.
"Fu Shan, this person, said than Xiaoyi is now learning more miscellaneous, Botong scriptures and history, part-time poetry, calligraphy and painting and medicine, and even Buddhism and Taoism have a great study, this calligraphy font is different, it can be said that there is grass and lines, plus Buddhist scriptures and two Tang poems, it can be said that it is a real miscellaneous book, so mixed, in a work, but it is not a little abrupt, but full of uniqueness, this is the charm of Fu Shan's miscellaneous books, but also its preciousness."
Zheng Lao looked at the calligraphy and said with a smile: "In terms of this calligraphy, the characteristics are distinctive, and the results can be obtained without too much identification, the value of 20 million is just a preliminary estimate, and if it is auctioned, even if it is 30 million, it is not the end." ”
After reading Fu Shan's calligraphy, Gao Cunzhi took out the silk Huang Tingjing again and handed it to Chen Yi, this thing, for Chen Yi, is the most suitable.
"Master. This is the silk version of the Huang Ting Sutra that may have zài secrets on it. According to my research analysis. Its age has surpassed the Sui and Tang dynasties, reached the Jin Dynasty, the biggest feature is that there is no charm of calligraphy on it, others seem to have no value, but I feel other things in it. ”
Speaking, Chen Yi slowly opened this piece of calligraphy, "My Xiaokai calligraphy can have today's calligraphy level, and it is completely based on this calligraphy." So, I think there may be a secret on it that we don't know. ”
Zheng Lao came to the table, looked at this calligraphy carefully, and showed a strange look on his face, "I also heard Cunzhi talk about this matter yesterday, and today I saw that this calligraphy is indeed very strange, and the font on the entire calligraphy is almost the same as the font written by Wang Xizhi, but on this calligraphy." But I can't feel the slightest charm. ”
But Xiao Yi felt something from this, and copied the handwriting written by guò. But it is full of Wang Xizhi's penmanship style, otherwise, the small block calligraphy written would not make Xiao Shenghua so amazed, this is indeed strange, Xiaoyi can reach today's level, and its subtle observation, as well as the comprehension of learning has a great relationship. ”
"Maybe this kind of field observation, or maybe it's chance, allows Xiao Yi to feel something from this calligraphy that others think is worthless, but this shows the strangeness of this calligraphy even more."
As he spoke, Zheng Lao looked at the calligraphy and asked Chen Yi: "Xiaoyi, after you obtained this calligraphy, I am afraid that you have also studied it for a period of time, and during this period, you will have gains." ”
"Master, the harvest is great, but I did not study the secret hidden in this calligraphy, this is not like the Dong Qichang calligraphy I found, there is another calligraphy in it, I have studied for so long, the harvest I get, is that every time I copy, I can feel something, I copied for two months, and I will understand the things I felt, my small calligraphy, but also from the beginning, slowly to the current level."
"It may be worthless in the eyes of others, but in my eyes, it is a priceless treasure, even if I can't discover its secrets." Chen Yi nodded and said to Zheng Lao, to this day, he knows that this calligraphy is very extraordinary, but he doesn't know the secret of zài stored in it.
Zheng Lao looked at the silk calligraphy over and over again, and then looked at the calligraphy with a magnifying glass, "This is indeed extremely strange, strange is not only that you can perceive something, but also that the calligraphy itself, without any charm, is simply described." ”
"Master, this is what I copied with Boren and Boss Liu based on this calligraphy, and the one next to it was copied by Xiao Yi, before that, Xiao Yi had not copied other people's Huang Tingjing at all." At this time, Gao Cunzhi put some of the handwriting they had copied in Jiya Pavilion in front of Zheng Lao.
Zheng Lao raised his head and looked at the handwriting copied by Gao Cunzhi and the three of them, without any charm, which can be said to be exactly the same as this calligraphy, but what Chen Yi copied was full of energy, even if there were only a dozen words on it, but it could also make some people who are familiar with calligraphy feel Wang Xizhi's brushwork from above.
"From the analysis of this font, Xiaoyi's calligraphy is extremely pure, which is completely the characteristics of Wang Xizhi, and is not mixed with the characteristics of later generations, which undoubtedly shows that his Xiaokai can have the current level, all from this calligraphy." Zheng Lao nodded, and in Chen Yi's dozen words, he saw a lot of things.
If Chen Yi learns from other people's calligraphy, then when copying this calligraphy without charm, if he copies the charm, it can only be the charm of other people, just like Gao Cunzhi and others, when copying this calligraphy, what is written is still without any charm.
"I put this calligraphy here first, and I will study it to see if I can find out the secret of this calligraphy." Zheng Lao looked at the calligraphy and said slowly, although he thought of something, he was not particularly sure, and after the results of the study, it was not too late to tell Chen Yi and the others.
Chen Yi nodded, he was also looking forward to Zheng Lao being able to discover the secret of this calligraphy, "Well, master, but I will copy the entire Huang Ting Jing from you later, which is also the work I promised Xiao Shenghua." ”
"Xiaoyi, this is your thing, what's not to do, we can't ask for it, take a look at the entire Huangting Jing calligraphy you copy, what kind of charm it will be." Hearing this, Zheng Lao said with a smile, this is just more than ten words, and he felt some of Wang Xizhi's brushwork, and copied the entire Huang Tingjing, which must be very extraordinary, which also made him look forward to it very much.
At this time, Gao Cunzhi took out the second strange thing from the box, which was the bamboo slip of flying beef, "Master, this thing may not hide a secret like the previous calligraphy, but when it comes to strange Cheng dù, it can be said to be comparable, it is the braised beef recipe written by Zhang Fei." ”
"Take it and take a look, I was full of interest when you mentioned it yesterday." Seeing this, Zheng Lao hurriedly beckoned Gao Cunzhi to hand it over and put it on the table.
When he took over this bamboo slip, Zheng Lao looked at it roughly, and his face showed a dignified look, if he was someone else, maybe when he saw this flying bamboo slip, he would laugh directly, and he didn't think it was true, but he saw something from the bamboo slip, this bamboo slip, it looks very ancient, on its front, densely written with a lot of handwriting, it is Zhang Fei's beef recipes, as well as instructions.
"Master, I studied it yesterday, from the bamboo slips and calligraphy style, it has the characteristics of the Three Kingdoms period, although it is possible to imitate it in later generations, but it is very difficult, it is characterized by the style of calligraphy, so that people can intuitively feel the charm of the Three Kingdoms period, the characteristics of this era of words, not calligraphy masters, absolutely can not be written." At this time, Gao Cunzhi continued to explain beside him.
Zheng Lao nodded, holding a magnifying glass in his hand, observing carefully, and then he slowly straightened up, "For Zhang Fei's history and controversial things, I think you all know, I won't repeat them one by one, judging from the material characteristics of bamboo slips, as well as calligraphy handwriting, style, and ink color, it does have the characteristics of the Three Kingdoms period, but Zhang Fei's calligraphy is extraordinary, and it can't be judged by the experience of one or two people. I will study it carefully with them, and in the meantime, go to some research institutions to do scientific tests, and maybe I can really draw conclusions. ”
If it is something else, they can get the result directly, but Zhang Fei's calligraphy has not been handed down at all, including other famous figures in the Three Kingdoms period, the affirmation of one or two people cannot convince the public, and it must be identified and studied with other people in the antique industry before it can be determined.
Looking at this bamboo slip, Zheng Lao suddenly thought of something, and couldn't help asking: "By the way, Xiaoyi, have you ever made the recipe on this bamboo slip, and what is the taste of the made, can it be compared with the Zhang Fei beef renamed in Shudu." ”
Gao Cunzhi looked at Chen Yi with a smile, "Master, we have handed over this task to the junior brother." ”
"Master, yesterday I already made zuò according to the recipe, but it will take some time, and when the zuò is finished, I will bring the beef." Chen Yi smiled, and then said, the Zhang Fei beef he realized took a week to make zuò, and the taste was definitely much stronger than this simplified version.
As for the extra time, there are many reasons to explain or prevaricate, and these are really not a problem.
"Okay, when you make it, let's taste it, see how Zhang Fei's beef tastes in this recipe, this bamboo recipe is also put here for me first, study it carefully, if you can really determine that it is written by Zhang Fei, then the value is unimaginable." Zheng Lao said with a sigh on his face.
Zhang Fei's calligraphy has not been handed down, and now no one knows how his calligraphy is, but from some materials and classics in later generations, he has found some words and phrases that illustrate his extraordinary calligraphy, but there is no authentic calligraphy verification, which is not enough to make people believe.
Not only Zhang Fei's calligraphy, but also whether he is black or white has many controversies in history. (To be continued......)
