Chapter 126
"Young man, thank you for coming, I drank another bowl of porridge this morning, it feels so comfortable."
"Old man, I will continue to help you treat today. Rest assured, you'll get better soon. ”
"Okay, I can trust you, thank you."
Wang Rui took out the needle and treated the old man, this time Wang Rui continued to treat near the passage, and gradually expanded the passage that was only a few hairs thick to the thickness of the little thumb, and the function of the stomach was partially restored. It seems that it is easy to open a small passage, but the time can also pass for forty minutes.
"Xiao Rui, how is it?"
"Brother Long, the old man can eat a little thicker porridge, soft and rotten food is fine, don't touch raw and cold and spicy food."
"Great, Rui, thank you."
"Young man, can I eat the staple food, I haven't eaten steamed buns for a long time."
"Old man, you can eat it, but chew the steamed buns for a while."
"Good, good."
"Brother Long, I brought some Chinese medicine, you let people boil, one bowl in the morning and one in the evening, and give it to the old man."
"Okay, Rui."
Mrs. Long immediately took it and went to decoct the medicine herself.
It was already noon when he came out of the old man's room, Long Tianya prepared a sumptuous lunch, Wang Rui and the two didn't eat in the morning, and the meal was very sweet.
"Xiao Rui, you still have something to do in Ice and Snow City, you can drive this car first, so it's more convenient. In addition, do you need me to find a few people to protect you and Miss Mo's safety? ”
"Brother Long, no, Brother Wu, he is responsible for protecting us, Brother Wu retired from the top ten special forces, in addition, Governor Li also sent people, but they only follow from a distance, and they will only appear when there is a situation."
"Oh, that's it, then it's safe. Xiao Rui, I heard Director Zou say that you are a collector and have studied a lot of antiques? ”
"With this hobby, Sitong and I also got together because of antiques."
"Xiao Rui, you are modest, I heard Director Zou say, your level is very high, I have collected some things, they are not antiques, can you help me take a look?"
"Okay, Brother Long."
Long Tianya took a few people to the study, his study was very large, one wall was full of books, and the things on the other wall were strange, rotten wood, broken stones, and a wall was full of them.
"Xiao Rui, that's all I want you to see."
Wang Rui was stunned, what is so beautiful about these things, no one picks them up on the street. But Brother Long put it so solemnly, these things are definitely not ordinary. Wang Rui observed for a while, but did not see why. So step forward and prepare to take a piece to observe. This one took the intuition and sank in his hands.
"Well, how can this rotten piece of wood be so heavy? No, it's not wood, it's fossilized wood? ”
"Hahaha, Xiao Rui, I didn't expect it, this is a wood fossil."
"Brother Long, all your walls are fossils?"
"Yes, there are fossilized wood, there are fossilized animal bones, there are fossilized plants and fossilized dung."
"Fossil dung?"
"yes, that's it."
When the three of them looked at it, wasn't this just a lump of black shit?
Wang Rui picked it up carefully, but it turned out to be extremely hard, and it was really a piece of dung.
"Brother Long, this piece of dung fossil is too rare, I don't know what kind of harsh conditions can form such a piece of dung fossil. Your collection is really not an antique, these are all cultural relics that should be in the museum. Brother Long, where did you get these fossils, you must know that it is illegal to resell these fossils. ”
"Xiao Rui, I said that I picked up all the fossils on this wall, do you believe it?"
"You picked it up? Where to pick it up, how is this possible. ”
"It's right on my site. Many years ago, when I visited a construction site, I stumbled upon a worker who would throw away some large rocks and rotten wood in the sand while sifting through the sand. I accidentally kicked a piece of rotten wood, but it didn't move. I picked up the rotten piece of wood out of curiosity, and it turned out to be as hard as stone. I took the piece of wood and asked the experts to find out that it was a fossilized wood. However, experts also say that this kind of wood fossil can often be found in the sand and is not worth much. But I was curious. Every time I inspect the construction site, I will go around the sand pile on the construction site, and I have picked up so much over the years? ”
During the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods, between 70 million and 200 million years ago, the earth was young and active, and sea-building movements came and went. Thick and dense southern cedar, pine, cypress, ginkgo, birch...... Growing here carefree for countless years. However, one morning, a volcano erupted, and the forest was buried at the bottom of the sea. The big trees in the forest were charred before they could be burned due to the instantaneous blazing fire, and when they fell into the seabed, they encountered a silica-rich layer with abundant silica liquid, and those pervasive liquids quickly penetrated into the carbonized tree body under super pressure. At this moment, the tree is the model, and the silica is the filler, and they are completely integrated in the moment of the eruption, buried deep in the vacuum of the ocean for hundreds of millions of years......
Wood fossils, the fine products in the stone collection, have a saying in the collection world that "gems are easy to obtain, but wood fossils are hard to find", which shows its preciousness. The Colliers International Furniture Harbor will hold a wood fossil exhibition starting this Saturday to show these rare nobles in stone to the citizens of Nanjing.
Fossil wood is formed in the Mesozoic era. At that time, the Eurasian plate and the Indian plate collided with each other, resulting in great geological changes such as crustal dislocation, fracture, and subsidence. Most of the animals and plants that sank into the ground evolved into oil, gas, and coal mines. Only a very small number of plants, such as ancient pine, cypress, pomelo, ginkgo, birch, pigeon tree, etc., are buried in silicon-rich strata, and are continuously infiltrated by a variety of elements in a high-temperature and high-pressure environment, filling in the trees, and finally becoming wood fossils after hundreds of millions of years of evolution.
The texture of the wood fossil is delicate, the wood grain and growth rings are clear, and the color is pure and rich, including snow white, gray, yellow, brown, black, red and emerald green. Wood fossils are generally characterized by the higher the degree of silicification, the older the age, especially with bark, growth rings, wormholes, knots and other characteristics. The agate-like wood fossil is very special, and the texture of jade, with emerald is even rarer, and it is called "wood jade" by collectors, which is the best among wood fossils.
Hundreds of millions of years of vicissitudes have honed and created fossil wood, making it not only maintain the simplicity of the tree, but also have the spirituality of stone. Some people sigh that if such a precious wood fossil can be placed in the living room or small courtyard, it is definitely a rare treasure in the world.
The wind rises and falls, and the vicissitudes of the sea. The changes that have taken place on the earth and the creatures that live on it over thousands of years are difficult for human science and technology to accurately explain. And the fossil wood slept quietly and untouched until the day it was excavated and unearthed.
People are attached to wood. Our ancestors used wooden weapons to hunt for food and wood to make fires for warmth, so that they survived and evolved in a harsh environment. In this way, wood grows with human beings. In today's high-tech world, we still can't do without it. More and more people are beginning to value this neglected partner, and wood culture has been mentioned again and again. Environmental protection, greening, tree planting, sustainable development......
