News newspapers have reported ridiculous tomb robberies, such as digging up their ancestors, not finding burial goods and almost being buried by the collapsed earthwork.

But factual journalism is only part of the story.

You must know that there are thousands of tomb robbers in the world, and the background is complex and difficult to summarize, among which there is a category of people who account for less than one percent of the group and have skills beyond people's cognition.

This type of person is known as the Five Elements in the antique circle.

The source of the title can be traced back to the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties and even a long time, because its root is the 'Hetu Luoshu'.

Later, there was a class of people in the 'Five Elements', known as antique appraisers, so it can be considered that every appraiser is a potential tomb robber.

But no matter what it is called, it is with real technology, and the words are mixed with truth and falsehood, and laymen are played around nine times out of ten.

……

Zhao Laosan in front of He Zi'an was a local Five Elements Scholar, and when he judged that he was not the same kind, he was just a stunned layman who wanted to learn from others to pick up leaks, so he moved his mind.

The five objects on the ground were all received by Zhao Laosan in front of the tomb in other provinces, which is not a good thing but it is not fake.

"You can only take one piece for 5,000 yuan, and your grandfather earns a mere 4,950, which is not a lie."

Zhao Laosan thought in his heart, and said with a smile on the surface: "Old man, in order to make some money, let your little baby scold casually." ”

"Five thousand yuan is to repay you for picking up Liangliang, but you treat me like a fool, which makes me very uncomfortable."

He Zi'an didn't care about the objects, remembering the tragic scene of the apprentice's broken calf and seeing the bones when he met the apprentice in his previous life, he was angry and planned to continue bargaining.

"Baby, I can't cut it anymore, it's for these things that I pretend to be disabled and hide here." Zhao Laosan shook his head with a bitter face, "I can't touch the coffin board for four years, it's as uncomfortable as having 10,000 ants bite in my heart." ”

After speaking, Zhao Laosan lowered his head slightly and stretched out his hand to touch his tears.

At this time, Zhao Liang's body in his arms trembled, and He Zi'an lowered his head to reassure: "Good girl, the master is here." ”

Zhao Laosan observed through his fingers, and saw the vicious speculation that He Zi'an must be unable to have children and wanted to be a father, so he saw a baby without a father and found a treasure.

You know, I don't know if the little potatoes were frozen by the wind and snow that winter, and the stupid movements are not coordinated on weekdays.

Yes, it must be.

Zhao Laosan judged further, and then decided that he would never let go of a penny, and the five thousand yuan must be obtained neatly, if he could, the other ......

He Zi'an has always felt Zhao Laosan's emotions, and bowed his head after appeasing his apprentice.

From left to right, two jasper cups, rusty short swords, brass beads, and brown amber stones swept over, intending to pick the shortcomings one by one, and cut five thousand pieces to five hundred.

Zhao Laosan noticed his thoughts, reached behind his left hand and pinched the back of his waist hard, and then his old eyes overflowed with tears, and he opened his mouth and said: "Baby, you may not know, the quality of tomb robbers is uneven, most of them go through the motions, one or two out of every thousand people have real skills, and I am just a farmer, I happened to meet it four years ago, and it was ...... at that time"

"Don't insult the farmer. In addition, when you pinch yourself, you push harder, so that the tears can be more real. He Zi'an really couldn't listen to it, so he interrupted.

Made!

Zhao Laosan stopped acting when he saw that it was exposed, and said in a tough tone: "Five thousand yuan is not less, even if you call the police and threaten it, it is useless." ”

Hearing this, He Zi'an planned to change the price plan, but found that the amber stone seemed to be a little strange, so he adjusted his mentality to observe.

When you get serious, you will find something wrong.

There is a scratch on the amber stone that is artificial, and the technique is not the same as the mainstream on the market, which does not hide the unnatural, and even afraid that you will not be able to see it, and the wax color contrasts with the amber color very lightly.

On closer inspection, the butterfly enclosed in the amber is slightly different from the natural one in terms of color and wing coordination.

Subsequently, he couldn't help but think of Song Yingxing at the end of the Ming Dynasty, to be precise, the masterpiece.

You must know that the antique circle has always attached great importance to technology, but there is also an old problem, many technologies are kept secret.

It's not that it doesn't pass on to outsiders, but the kind that doesn't pass on to one's own children, no matter what mentality the owner has, and as a result, more than ninety percent of the technology is short-lived.

Later, in order to obtain technology, people would 'archaeology' on antiquities, so sometimes laymen look at ordinary objects, but the price is extraordinarily high.

Today, the trading volume of such objects accounts for a large proportion, and it is called special objects in the circle.

Amber stone-sealed butterflies fall into this category.

Not long after the 'Heavenly Creation' came out, someone took it and flipped through it, trying to reverse the technology from above to resurrect the 'Flying Fish' in Luban's technique.

It failed, but it was recognized for its exquisite craftsmanship and was loved by collectors who were curious.

Later, someone found out that the failed flying fish was made using the resurrected 'Golden Secret' technology of the Southern Song Dynasty, and the ability of the maker, corresponding to today's great grandmaster level, opened fifty taels of silver.

Fifty taels of silver is equivalent to about 20,000 today, that is, in the nineties.

The man also named the object 'Cai Hu Die', and the word spread.

It's a pity that the turbulent situation later, the objects disappeared, and the Qing Dynasty did not appear in the Qing Dynasty, leaving only a few words in the ancient books, which made people suspect that the ancients were fake.

This is also why, He Zi'an didn't recognize it at first, but after careful observation, he saw from the interweaving of butterfly patterns that it was a lost secret gold structure.

At this point, he put away his contemptuous thoughts and identified the other four objects one by one.

Disastrous.

Jasper cups, short swords, and beads are really all antiquities, and the dynasties are all before the Yongle Dynasty.

"Hey, what are you doing?" Zhao Laosan shouted angrily.

"Identification." He Zi'an told the truth.

Zhao Laosan directly disdainfully said: "You can also pick up a rag, don't be delusional about identifying antiques." ”

He Zi'an felt that this old man was also interesting, so he raised his head and said, "You are determined, I dare to be unscrupulous." ”

"I'm not afraid to tell you, I'm the kind of person who has real skills among the tomb robbers." Zhao Laosan said confidently, "And I didn't learn from your grandfather, but from Banshan." ”

Banshan is not a mountain, it is a very ancient and secret sect, the finger bones of the people of the sect can be strong and soft, and the strength is no worse than the sharp sword, and the human body can be easily pierced.

The main thing is that the technique is not weakened by age, and even the older you get, the stronger you become.

"What mountain, I don't know." He Zi'an said deliberately.

"Hmph, if you know the way as a newcomer, then don't mix in the rivers and lakes like me." Zhao Laosan sneered, and then shot at the floor with his right hand and fingers.

Burst!

Zhao Laosan's fingering was so fast, he raised his hand after the sound, leaving a finger pit on the ground.
