One hundred and thirty. Kui dragon pattern

In the home of Jin Datong, the "golden skillful hand", all the jade objects taken from the sable cicada were placed in front of Jin Datong. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Xiao Yifei knows very well that if there is anyone in this world who can judge the origin of those jades, it can only be a golden skillful hand. He has an extraordinary eye, and naturally he can make the most accurate judgments. When Xiao Yifei first carefully observed those jade objects, he had a strange feeling in his heart, he vaguely felt that he had seen it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while, so he couldn't remember to pay attention to other places.

To Xiao Yifei's surprise, when he saw those things, Jin Qiaoshou almost seemed to have been struck by lightning, standing there, holding something like that in his hand, it took a lot of effort to barely come back to his senses, looked at Xiao Yifei and asked, "What I want to know is, whose tomb did you rob, and you would actually find such a thing?" This is absolutely impossible to be a modern human thing, why would you have it? You're not...... Did you really do the job of 'touching the gold captain'? ”

"Tomb robbing? That's not something I'll do. Xiao Yifei's heart was suddenly shocked, antiquities? Why have you ever seen it? Memories are not wrong, but he can't remember where he has seen them. He barely feigned composure and continued, "Could it be that this thing has any other origin? ”

"You should always be well aware of the fact that for thousands of years, real jade has not been very long, and unlike ordinary ceramics, it is not easy to tell the age of jade, after all, they have been sleeping underground for thousands of years before they are made." Jin Qiaoshou continued solemnly, "And the only thing that can make us judge is the shape and pattern of the jade, and some things, after the past era, are impossible to imitate, just like people are getting smarter and smarter, the craftsmanship of jade craftsmen will be higher and higher, even if they are holding exactly the same thing, the tools for making jade are different, and the things made are naturally different." ”

Xiao Yifei nodded, he always thought that he knew something about jade, and when he got the jade, he just felt a little awkward, but he didn't pay too much attention to it for a while. It wasn't until Jin Qiaoshou pointed out the dragon pattern used for decoration on it that he remembered that he seemed to have seen a similar record in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" that said, "There is a Liupo Mountain in the East China Sea, which enters the sea for 7,000 miles." There is a beast on it. The shape is like an ox, the body has no horns, one foot, whoever goes in and out will have wind and rain, its light is like the sun and the moon, its sound is like thunder, and its name is 'Kui'". He frowned and said, "Isn't it also very common for ancient divine beasts to be carved on jade?" Is there anything special about this? I remember that during the Shang and Zhou dynasties, wasn't this kind of pattern very common? ”

"As you said, that's a common pattern on bronzes. To be precise, such patterns are often carved on ritual vessels used in sacrifices or more important scenes. But on ordinary jade, at most, it is only used as an auxiliary pattern, and it is often one-legged. But the imitation of modern people will always add an extra leg to it as a matter of course, because in the general consciousness of ordinary people, dragons seem to be the same as humans, two-legged. And this ......" Jin Qiaoshou handed the thing to Xiao Yifei, as if he shuddered: "Take a closer look, this is almost carved according to the ritual vessels of the Shang and Zhou dynasties, but this is a thing that looks like a bottle and does not look like a bottle, the shape is exactly the same as that on the bronze, it is like a carved ......"

Jin Qiaoshou's reaction was too strange, which made Xiao Yifei feel a little emotional, he frowned and said, "Is there anything strange about this?" There are not a few imitations of jade and antiques on sale at the moment......"

"As I said, the main thing is to look at the details, all the details are almost identical, do you think this could be a coincidence?" Jin Qiaoshou shuddered and said, "Such a pattern, as well as such a simple brushwork, I am afraid that only people of that era can complete it." That is to say......"

He didn't say what he said next, but the meaning was obvious, these things were either from the hands of the ancients, buried in the ground for thousands of years, and then dug up again. But in Xiao Yifei's opinion, such a statement is not valid, after all, if it is just one or two or a dozen identical things, it may be said that it is something that was inadvertently retained back then, and now it is turned out and re-sold, but there is only one explanation for such a large number of things: it is an imitation of modern people, but they use the methods of the ancients.

Could it be the work of those people? Xiao Yifei shuddered, he should have thought a long time ago, since Lu Zhong was inexplicably involved with those people, it would not be strange that such a jade would appear, but he didn't quite understand, what was the benefit to those people by letting these things flow into the homes of ordinary people? What made him even more puzzled was that where had he seen such a thing?

"Not to mention ordinary people's homes, even restaurants have inexplicably more such things, and I heard that many customers have named them to drink with something that looks like a wine glass and doesn't look like a wine glass." Yu Niang didn't know when she appeared, and there was a little more tired expression on her face, "But it's a good thing for the back kitchen, because the cup after use only needs to be rinsed with water, and it will become clean, and I heard that after pouring the wine into it, it can also improve the aroma of the wine." If it weren't for the shopkeeper who thought that the cost of using jade was too high, I am afraid that all the plates and bowls in Fan Lou would have been replaced with jade. ”

"Oh?" Xiao Yifei was taken aback again, he picked up the thing again and looked at it again, and didn't forget to put it under his nose and sniffed it, nodded his head and said, "Then it's better to ask Yu Niang to pay attention to what kind of cup the person who entered and exited Fan Lou used?" You don't use these too, do you? ”

"It's all silverware. I heard that they brought it themselves. It's just ......" Yu Niang's face was a little more proud: "It's just that they seem to use jade occasionally, I can be sure that the taste of the wine seems to be different from the smell of peace I smell." ”

There must be something strange about this. Xiao Yifei frowned, Lu Zhong put so much effort into arranging the stronghold of jade on Jiaofang Street, naturally he had his intentions. Those people are not short of money to spend, that is to say, they should have special arrangements, so they will let a large amount of jade into the homes of ordinary people. But where did those things come from? He turned his gaze to Jin Qiaoshou again.
