Chapter 348: Jade in the Stone
Luo Hu glanced at the frozen thirty-three heavens that stretched out from the dense fog, and then sighed, and his breath changed completely as soon as his mind turned and his primordial spirit waved.
As the optimizer of the character of the Taishang Dao Ancestor, the Demon Ancestor took possession of all his divine channel techniques.
It is not his wish to show mercy to his subordinates, and only by taking the first step out of the cocoon can he be barely satisfied.
"Taishang Dao Method, one gas and three clear!"
Luo Hu shouted loudly, bent his fingers to seal, and then flicked, the silver-white light flashed out, shot into the seal and disappeared.
It is not willing to retreat quietly, destroy everything of the Tongtian Sect Master, and let the fairyland be in turmoil, this is meaningful.
And now with the help of other people's power to destroy the seal, this is the most witty method, although it can't achieve framing others, but it can be regarded as borrowing strength.
The screams came faintly from the foggy platform, and the four saints, who were the culprits, did not think so, because as long as they could remove the demons' blinding methods, everything would be worth it.
The Antarctic Immortal Weng and the Burning Lamp Dao people seemed to be silent, but in fact they were extremely uncomfortable.
Mind that others are careless about the fate of immortals, especially those of saints, it is really a shame for the immortals.
I don't understand why the Dao of Heaven would let such a guy step into the ranks of the holy immortals and achieve the mixed yuan Daluo Jin Immortal, but it is true that he does not approve and is not convinced.
Fairy Ling Yao no longer had hope in Yuan Zhen Liheng, who killed at will, or was used to the Four Sages who were closest to the fallen immortals, or she was used to such scenes.
She'd rather be right to someone than not to be right!
Yingsheng smiled and said contemptuously: "The screams of the same kind are really wonderful, your undeceiving approach has lifted my spirits, and even the quality of jade seems to be a lot more humble!"
The quality of jade is the most ideal state in the hearts of Chinese people.
In the Paleolithic Age, the Chinese ancestors chose beautiful stone to polish jade, representing the germination and establishment of the jade industry in the late Paleolithic Age.
From the Paleolithic period to slave societies, the wearing of jade represented people's social status.
From the milled jade to the exquisite jade carving works, jade develops with the development of society, and the culture of jade is more abundant——— the jade dragon, jade bi, jade knife, jade ge, jade beast in the Neolithic Age, creating a precedent for jade ornaments with pictures and texts, novel composition and exquisite workmanship, which is highly respected by people, and it adds more gorgeous colors to the jade culture.
The reason why beautiful jade is loved by Chinese people is that they use jade as a metaphor for people's virtue, and pay attention to the saying that "a gentleman must admire jade" and "for no reason, jade does not go to the body".
Jade was born from the mother body of stone tools, far beyond stone tools.
Originally, it was just a small jade block drilled into a hole for pendants, or as in the case of polished stone tools, sharpened into jade weapons or tools.
In the late Neolithic period, jade was carved or polished to a smooth finish, and the shape of the vessel was relatively large and complex, which could be regarded as a handicraft.
In the Neolithic period, marked by polished stone tools, the techniques for processing jade tools were the same.
The development of stone-making technology from beating to grinding has gone through thousands of years, and jade-making technology has roughly undergone the same process.
The two may be identical in terms of the techniques and tools used, but jade has other needs besides practicality, so the technical requirements are more complex than the manufacture of stone tools.
Jade not only requires a higher finish than stone, but also engraves a variety of patterns, which is out of people's aesthetic needs, and is a non-practical art decoration, which is rare on stone tools.
Neolithic jade, with practical value of jade axe, jade shovel, jade knife, jade Ge and other production tools and weapons, used as ornaments are jade rings, jade balls, jade bracelets, jade huang, jade jue, jade beads, jade tubes, etc.
The jade of this period is simple and simple, with different thickness and irregular shape.
In the late period, jade gradually separated from stone tools, embarked on an independent process of technical and artistic development, and laid a social and technical foundation for the development and improvement of jade craftsmanship in later generations.
With the use of bronze or the use of both gold and stone, the tools of production have been greatly improved, the social productive forces have been improved, and the appreciation and accumulation of material wealth have contributed to the formation of classes and the emergence of the state.
There are many types of jade, which can be roughly divided into seven categories according to different forms and uses: ritual vessels, ceremonial guards, tools, utensils, ornaments, works of art and miscellaneous utensils.
The ceremonial utensils are Dacong, Gucong, Gui, Bi, Huan, Xuan, Huang, Jue, Gui, and Plate; the ceremonial guards are Ge, spears, Qi, Yue, knives, etc.; the axes, chisels, adzes, saws, knives, spinning wheels, shovels, sickles, and so on are used in daily life; the molars, pestles, combs, ear spoons, daggers, and so on are used in daily life; the number of ornaments is the largest, and there are ornaments, pipes, hammers, pendants, beads, and so on.
The rheological process of jade and its achievements can be seen that jade has a long history, a wide range of uses, a variety of forms, a smooth texture, exquisite grinding, a unique style, with distinctive national characteristics, unique in the field of jade craft, fully demonstrating the wisdom and creative talent of the working people.
As an important part of the history of jade, ancient jade is also a precious heritage and artistic treasure in the treasure house of Chinese national culture, like a pearl that will always radiate brilliant light, shining on the broad road of jade craftsmanship that is booming.
It is believed that jade has the following meanings: 1. The master of all things: It is believed that jade can represent the gods of heaven and earth and the kings of the world, can enhance the communication between gods and people, convey the message and will of the heavens, and is the master of heaven and earth, the universe and the blessings and disasters of the world.
2. The essence of heaven and earth: This view holds that jade is formed from the essence of all things in heaven and earth and has magical powers.
3. Jade has five virtues: jade in stone, stone in soil, inclusive and warm.
Fourth, the doctrine of warding off evil spirits and eliminating worship: It is believed that jade has supernatural powers. People wear jade with them, which can increase the ability to resist the invasion of evil qi, because jade can ward off evil spirits and eliminate worship, and ensure the safety and auspiciousness of jade people.
5. Prolonging life: It is believed that jade has the function of making people live longer, and people can stay young forever by wearing jade and eating jade.
The maintenance of jade is also a must.
Avoid collision between jade and hard objects.
The jade piece is easy to crack after being collided, and sometimes although the crack is not visible to the naked eye, there are dark cracks in the surface of the jade, which greatly damages its perfection and economic value.
Jade should be protected from sunlight to prevent affecting the texture and color of the jade.
Chemical agents will bring some damage to jade, if accidentally stained, should be wiped off in time and cleaned, do not let it cause damage to the jade.
Avoid dust and oil as much as possible. If there is dirt or oil stains attached to the jade surface, rinse with water.
New jade should also be soaked in water for a few hours, cleaned with soft bristles, and then dried with a clean cloth before wearing.
It is best to wipe the pendant with a clean, soft white cloth, rather than a dyed cloth or a fibrous fabric, which helps to maintain and maintain the original quality.
The jade pieces should be cleaned regularly, generally once in a while.
For hanging ornaments such as jade pendants, the tether should be checked frequently to prevent loss or damage.
Although Yuanchen, Zhenjikang, Lijian, and Hengtong have Peiyu, their sex is still strong and excessively hard.
Just like the portrayal of their personalities, the tough attitude shown is not gentlemanly, and as for inclusiveness, it is even worse. It is not that there are clear grievances and hatreds, but it is easy to break if it is rigid, and there is no soft body and mind, even if the Great Dao is in hand, it will bring too much promise to the Three Realms.
Relying too much on cultivation for life and death, which not only loses the quality of jade, the softness of water, but also allows unnecessary malpractices to continue, how to benefit the Qingtai of heaven and earth, not to mention long-term stability.
Jianren and Jianyu are actually no different.
The conventional and reliable identification methods of jade are: seeing, hearing, and testing.
Secondly, there are three contents of detailed identification of jade, one is to identify the quality of jade, the second is to identify manual processing, and the third is to identify counterfeit products and even synthetic products.
Look, mainly look at the crystal transparency, the real jade has strong transparency, grease luster; listen, the sound of the real jade is crisp, on the contrary, the sound is muffled; the test, the real jade scratches the glass, leaving scratches on the glass, while the jade itself is not damaged at all.
The same is true for connoisseurs, observing their virtues, listening to their words, and measuring their deeds.
Wantonly affects the immortals, and their actions are wrong, even if they are saints and wear precious jade, they are also gold and jade, and they are ruined.
