"Old Zhou, what do you mean by picture-in-picture?

The first person to ask questions was none other than Tang Yun, the owner of the painting, although he knew the real situation of the painting from the beginning, but in order to avoid suspicion, he still had to do what he should do.

"I'm just guessing at the moment, if you want to know if this painting is really what I said, then you can only separate this painting!" Zhou Lao said.

"Old Zhou, I don't know if you have any good way to separate this painting?" Tang Yunzhi bought this painting for the sake of another painting hidden inside, if there was a way to take out the painting safely, it would naturally be the best.

"There is a way, you wait for me!"

After speaking, Zhou Lao ignored everyone and turned around and walked into his bedroom.

A few minutes later, Zhou Lao walked out with a transparent glass bottle in his hand, which still contained about two-thirds of the light blue liquid, in addition to a small tweezer in Zhou Lao's hand.

Chen Guanxi explained to several people: "This is a technique that Zhou Lao learned from a master, unveiling paintings, I didn't expect to see it with my own eyes today." ”

While waiting, everyone had already moved the fruits and other items on the coffee table aside, and carefully spread the "Landscape, Smoke and Rain Map" on the coffee table.

At this time, Zhou Lao was engrossed, stroked the scroll with his palm, and then poured the light blue liquid in the glass bottle into the palm of his hand, palm down, and poured the liquid from one end of the scroll until the other end ended.

This action was repeated dozens of times until the scroll was completely soaked with a pale blue liquid.

Then, Zhou Lao took out the tweezers and carefully lifted the paper located in the lower left corner of the "Landscape, Smoke and Rain", in order to avoid damage, Zhou Lao's movements were very cautious and slow.

Tang Yun and the others stood aside and watched Zhou Lao's movements carefully, and even his breathing seemed to be very slow, for fear of affecting Zhou Lao.

It took a lot of time for Zhou Lao to unveil the painting, and after about twenty minutes, another painting that was originally hidden by "Landscape, Smoke and Rain" really appeared in front of everyone's eyes at this time.

The first feeling of this painting is that it is majestic, only to see the giant peak in the painting, almost occupies the whole picture, the mountain is dense with trees, the waterfall flows down from the mountainside, the huge boulders at the foot of the mountain are vertical and horizontal, so that the whole painting is intricate, there is also a business team on the mountain road, a bay of stream flows on the side of the road, it is the waterfall that flows straight down the mountain, and the people who look at it can not help but be able to hear the sound of water, human voices and mules and horses.

"This is Fan Kuan's "Traveling in Streams and Mountains"!"

Chen Guanxi was the first to exclaim.

"What did you say?"

Zhou Lao, who was wiping his sweat, was shocked when he heard this, he was too focused on revealing the painting just now, and he didn't have time to look at the content of the painting.

Chen Guanxi shouted like this, not only Zhou Lao, but even Zhou Jiajia, Zhou Nanfeng and Tang Yun himself couldn't help but be surprised, although Tang Yun knew that there were paintings inside, but because the distance between the two paintings was too close, he didn't see the real content of the painting inside, and when he heard Chen Guanxi shouting, Tang Yun was instantly stunned.

Who Fan Kuan is, presumably anyone who knows a little bit about painting will know.

Fan Kuan, a master of painting in the Song Dynasty, was especially good at painting landscapes, and was one of the "Three Great Masters of the Northern Song Dynasty" in landscape painting.

Due to the age, there are not many authentic works of Fan Kuan, but the only remaining pieces are fine works, such as "Snow Mountain Xiao Temple", "Snow Scene and Cold Forest", "Linliu Sitting Alone" and the "Traveling Map of Streams and Mountains" in front of him.

"You can't be wrong, this "Traveling in Streams and Mountains" is indeed Fan Kuan's authentic handiwork!" Zhou Lao pointed to a prescription seal on the painting and said excitedly: "You see, there is a seal here, this is the seal specially used by Emperor Qianlong during the Qing Dynasty for collection, this is the best proof!"

Tang Yun took a closer look, and there was really a seal with the words "Treasure of the Imperial Book" printed on this painting.

"Fan Kuan is worthy of being a master of landscape painting, not only with the pen is vigorous, but also thick and moisturizing with this dark and heavy rhyme, the artistic conception in this painting can not help but make people intoxicated, it is really a masterpiece!" Chen Guanxi exclaimed.

"You're right, Xiao Tang picked up a big leak this time!" Zhou Lao looked up at Tang Yun and smiled.

"That's right!" Chen Guanxi suddenly thought of the scene at that time, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "It seems that I have lost my eyes this time, but fortunately, this painting ended up in Xiao Tang's hands, otherwise I would have died of depression." ”

The relationship between Chen Guanxi and the Zhou family is like a family, since Tang Yun is the son-in-law of the Zhou family, he is naturally not an outsider, and it is much better for this painting to fall into the hands of Tang Yun than to fall into the hands of others.

"Haha, don't you look at whose son-in-law this is?"

Zhou Nanfeng patted Chen Guanxi on the shoulder and smiled.

"You don't come. Chen Guanxi said dissatisfiedly: "Who doesn't have a daughter? Ahem, that Jiajia, I'll let Mengmeng come over to play with you when I turn around. ”

Chen Guanxi found that something was wrong and quickly changed the topic halfway through speaking, because at this time, Zhou Jiajia was pouting and staring at him unhappily.

"That's good, I haven't seen Mengmeng for a long time, and I miss her a lot!" Zhou Jiajia squinted and smiled.

"Haha, by the way, Xiao Tang, what are you going to do with this painting, do you want to keep it for yourself or do you plan to sell it?" Zhou Lao turned his head to look at Tang Yun and asked.

Tang Yun scratched his head and said with a wry smile: "This, I haven't thought about it yet..."

Zhou Lao smiled when he heard this: "In this case, I suggest that you first find a framing master to frame this painting well, as for whether you want to keep it or sell it when the time comes, you can decide for yourself, of course, if you plan to frame, I just have an acquaintance here who can introduce it to you." ”

The so-called mounting, is a special skill of decorating calligraphy and painting, inscriptions, etc., a complete painting and calligraphy works, to make it more beautiful, in order to preserve, circulate and collect, is inseparable from mounting, because most of the Chinese calligraphy and painting works are created on rice paper and silk items that are easy to crumple.

Decoration is a unique Chinese technique for protecting and beautifying calligraphy, paintings and inscriptions, just like Western oil paintings, which are usually put into exquisite frames after completion, so that they can achieve a higher artistic beauty.

"Then it's troublesome for Old Zhou!"

"You're welcome, in this case, I'll write you a note first, and I'll call you when it's ready. ”

"Old Zhou, don't you need the note, I can't trust you?"

Zhou Lao smiled when he heard this: "Okay, if there is any damage to this painting at that time, I will compensate you for my granddaughter!"

"Grandpa!"

"Haha!"
