Chapter 278: The Inscription of the Eight Mountain People
Bada Shanren's original name was Zhu Tong, and Niu Shihui's original name was Zhu Tongyun, and the two were brothers and famous painters in the early Qing Dynasty.
Needless to say the former, there are three works with a unit price of hundreds of millions of yuan at auction alone, and two or three hundred works with a unit price of less than 100 million. The works handed down are not only many, but also expensive, with a total turnover of more than 20 billion, ranking among the top three famous calligraphers and painters.
Niu Shihui is a little worse, the average price of calligraphy and painting is about one million, and whether it is the National Museum or the Forbidden City, there are genuine works of the two of them, and Li Ding'an has also studied them.
In addition, the two are also the ninth grandson of King Ning Zhu Quan, although the prince was only deposed in the fourth generation, but after all, it is the Ming clan, the family property is quite rich, and the father and ancestor are all famous people who are "famous in the river" at that time, and the life of the two brothers should be very nourishing.
It's a pity that I was born at the wrong time, born in troubled times. In the sixth year of Shunzhi, Tan Tai, the owner of the Yellow Banner, broke through Nanchang and slaughtered 200,000 people, and the two brothers hid in the mountains, changed their names and surnames, and both became monks.
Both of them first became monks and then entered the Tao, Zhu Tong changed his name to "Xue", "Mountain", and called himself "Mountain Donkey", "Daolang", "Bada Mountain People" and so on.
Zhu Tongyun was changed to Niu Shihui, called Xingan, when the monk Buddha name was Fahui, when the Taoist priest called himself Daoming, Mingyue, Wangyunzi.
No matter how they change, there is a bit of mystery hidden in the names of the two, and the words Lang and Ming go without saying, just say "one" and "cow", "eight" and "cow", and when they are combined, it is just the word "Zhu".
Including the name Niu Shihui, Zhu Tongyun generally does not use it, but whenever it is used, it must be written in cursive, and it is "born not to worship the king", which means that he will never worship the emperor of the Qing Dynasty in his lifetime.
And the writing is very sloppy, nine out of ten people can't recognize it, and even if the ordinary people who play the collection touch this square seal, they will only treat it as an ordinary old object, and they will not think of the younger brother of the Bada Shanren.
Including the lives of the two, Li Dingan has only a general understanding, and knows that the two brothers have been living in Nanchang and surrounding counties, but I really don't know where they are.
If he hadn't seen the spirit cards and classics in the shrine and thought of Zhu Quan, he might not have been able to think of Niu Shihui and whether he worshiped the king.
So it's all a bit of luck to come across this thing.
Looking at it again at this time, the context is much clearer: Niu Shihui is the ninth grandson of King Zhu Quan of Ning, and Lao Dao also said that this seal is the idle chapter of the ninth generation of the patriarch, and also said that the patriarch is "Taoist and witch double cultivation".
Coupled with the few things that Fu Yan invited from him before, the answer is about to come out: the patriarch of his lineage is Zhu Quan!
Let's just talk about a small Taoist temple, where did the master sword and the commander of the five thunders of Zhang Tianshi of Longhu Mountain come from?
And what about the rest?
In an instant, Li Ding'an's eyes lit up.
I don't want more, and I don't expect that there are works or relics of the Bada Shanren in it, just hope to come across a few things that were used by the prince before King Ning's title was deposed.
I dare not say that it is a national treasure, but it is a proper collection-level cultural relic.
But you can't be in a hurry, the so-called can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, you have to take your time......
"These two parties have printed a package...... Oh no, please......"
"Huh?"
It's all said that it's an idle chapter, not a magic weapon. You are a master, what is the use of asking for this thing?
The loose eyelids twitched up and down, and the old Taoist priest was stunned for a while before he reacted.
It doesn't matter how much he is, just give him money......
With a wave of his hand, the ponytailed young man understood, and hurriedly walked over and put Lian Zhang into the box.
At the same time, the three people who followed behind understood: Li Dingan had encountered something good.
No one squeaked, and they didn't dare to look at each other, they all tried their best to keep a straight face and follow honestly.
After looking at it for a while, Li Ding'an pointed to another one: "I also invited ...... this canopy ruler."
Lei Mingzhen poked his head and looked: the material looked like peach wood, saying that it was a ruler, but there was no scale on it, but there were many symbols and sun, moon and stars carved on it, and it was also a quadrangular shape.
Canopy ruler, used by Zhu Bajie?
Of course it can't be, Lei Mingzhen just secretly laughed for a while.
Continuing to walk forward, Li Dingan pointed to two more things, a string of mica rosaries and a brass water bowl. Like the one in this piece, it was engraved with runes, and Lei Mingzhen didn't know any of them.
These things are okay, not to mention the value of cultural relics, even from the perspective of religious beliefs, they definitely belong to objects such as "treasures".
Of course, there are antiques, it just takes a little effort. But the so-called excess, besides, this old Taoist priest is by no means a fuel-efficient lamp, and he picks too many things, he will be suspicious: Are you here to ask for magic weapons, or are you here to buy goods?
After a shallow taste, Li Dingan stopped, thought about it, and exhaled softly:
"Dao Chief, I see that Guanyu is dilapidated, and the god bottle is covered with ashes, I am really emotional, I am willing to help donate millions, please ask Dao Chang to repair and repair it for me, what do you think?"
Million?
The old Taoist priest's heart skipped a beat: Don't feel it, just feel it......
He was still thinking about it before, if it was compared to the few witch weapons invited by Miss Fu, the Taoist magic weapons would definitely be doubled, one should cost 100,000, and four 400,000 yuan, which should not be expensive.
But unexpectedly, people's mouths have more than doubled?
Biggie......
In an instant, Doudou's eyes lit up: "Good faith and good thoughts, you will be able to fulfill people's wishes!" ”
Li Dingan nodded and took out the card.
The pony-tailed young man hurriedly took it, brought the POS machine again, operated it a few times, and watched the small ticket "zizzle" come out, he almost laughed.
Million?
It's been five years, and it's the first time I've earned so much......
The father and son were very attentive and said that they must stay for a fasting meal, but Li Dingan politely declined.
A group of four people said goodbye and left, and the car was parked outside Qingshi Lane, so a few people still went out from where they came in.
He went out of the side door and entered the witch temple again.
Fu Yan said that the master knife and the commander of the five thunders were taken out by the old Taoist priest from here, and from this point of view, there should be good things here.
But there's no hurry, it's not too late to come back next time.
Thinking about it, Li Dingan walked out unhurriedly, purely instinctively, and glanced at it casually when he passed by.
But it was this glance that made him stop again.
There is a copper collar hanging on the wall, the workmanship is very simple, it is roughly a copper ring, on which are hung several copper bells, and a pendant is hung with a copper chain.
It's not big, the collar is not big, the bell is not big, the pendant is also not big, and the thumb belly will be a little bit, boxy, and cut very neatly.
The material is also average, reflecting a little jade polish, and it looks like a cow's horn. There's a symbol carved on it, and it's very abstract, it feels like a bird.
He had seen this thing when he came in before, and thought it was a Miao ornament, and it was copper, and it was not locked in the cabinet, so he didn't care.
But at this moment, his mind was full of "King Ning", "Bada Shanren", and "Niu Shihui", and he would associate something when he saw something. When I saw this bird, I couldn't help but think: Bada Shanren is the best at drawing birds, and they are very distinctive, and there is no one who does not roll his eyes.
The bird rolls its eyes, unheard of, so it is also very smoky......
Just as he was turning around with such a thought, he slammed it, only to feel a thump, and his heart beat twice unhappily: What did you say just now?
Bada Shanren!
Good guys, pick up the big leak......
As soon as he stopped, others naturally had to stop, Lei Mingzhen followed his gaze and glanced at it: "This is a copper collar...... What's wrong? ”
Li Ding settled down, and opened his mouth to come: "It's not much, I just think the workmanship is very chic...... Look, isn't it round? ”
Is this chic?
You give it to me, and I can break it round......
After many years of bad friends, and watching him pick up so many leaks with his own eyes, his two big eyes turned around: "How chic can just a copper ring be?" If you like to buy it, it's not like the previous magic weapons, and it's so exquisite? ”
Nonsense, how to fool the layman if you don't pay attention to it?
The old Taoist priest muttered and walked forward a little.
There were too many things left in the house before, and he bought a lot later, Taoist weapons, witch weapons, musical instruments, robes, Taoist clothes, etc., which were mixed together for a long time, and many of them forgot the specific origin.
Looking at it again, there are a few bells hanging on a copper ring, and a horn pendant is also hung, which is really not good. Even if it is something from the Miao family, it is worn by civilians.
Those who have a little money are all silver, who uses copper?
"If you like it, take it and enjoy it!"
Haha, for nothing?
Li Dingan raised his eyebrows, and he was not polite: "Then thank you!" ”
"Be kind and polite!"
"You don't need to put a box, just give it to me!"
The ponytail young man wanted to wrap him, but Li Dingan stopped him again, just casually carried it in his hand, and circled his fingers twice.
Father and son respectfully sent them out of the door.
After a few polite words, the two sides said goodbye, and the four of them entered the bluestone lane unhurriedly.
"A million...... How do you give so much? ”
"If you don't have a Taoist priest, you won't sell it, so it's better to just do it!"
"That's a leak?"
"How can there be so many leaks?"
No way.
Although Li Ding'an was very indifferent from front to back, and his expression did not change much, but intuitively, Lei Mingzhen always felt that Li Qiangqiang had found something good.
The first time was the double seal, Li Dingan looked at it more seriously, obviously longer than the others. In addition to looking, he also scratched with his fingers, as if he was recognizing the words on it. After that, the pulp in the buckle pattern was deducted to determine whether it was old.
And then there was this copper ring just now, and for a second or two, I felt that Li Ding'an's breath was a little hotter.
But just think about it in your heart, as the saying goes, you can make a fortune by being silent, after all, Duan Mu and Fu Yan are still beside them. It's not that the relationship is bad, but the time I've known Li Dingan is too short......
Lei Mingzhen closed his mouth tightly, while Duan Mu and Fu Yan leaned around Li Ding'an, looking at a few things in his hand: "Teacher Li, what is engraved on this rosary?" ”
"Liujia Secret Note, also known as the nine-character mantra, is the commonly used by Taoist priests 'those who are fighting in battle, all moving forward in array'!"
"What about this one?"
"Water bowl, commonly known as water purification bowl...... I've seen Journey to the West, it's the same as the net bottle in Guanyin's hand: fill it with water, insert a willow branch or small flower, and sprinkle it on the altar when doing the rituals, which means clean......"
Lei Mingzhen also took a look: "Who sprinkled?" ”
"Three holes of high power!"
The brother and sister's eyes widened.
The so-called three-hole high skill is the purple robe, and more importantly, this is an old object.
Afraid that the wall had ears, the two didn't dare to ask more, but Lei Mingzhen pouted: he dared to guarantee that among the remaining few pieces, there was definitely something better than this......
A few people whispered and walked out of the alley.
As soon as she got into the car, Fu Yan jumped on the seat and climbed upside down on the back of the co-pilot's seat: "Teacher Li, these are all high-level magic weapons?" ”
"There is only one high-level magic weapon!"
"Oh......"
A slightly disappointed look just surfaced, and Li Dingan shook his head again: "The other two are Heavenly Master magic weapons. ”
"Huh?" Fu Yan couldn't bear it, and cried out, "Which Heavenly Master?" ”
"I don't know who it is, but it doesn't matter, I'll study it when I'm free!"
As he spoke, Li Ding'an took out the other two pieces as well, "One for each person, pick it yourself!" ”
"What?"
The brother and sister were stunned again.
What Li Ding'an said about picking, didn't he mean to give it to himself?
This is a Heavenly Master's magic weapon!
As for Fu Yan's two cases before, the brother and sister also made a special trip to ask their elders, and they all said that if Li Dingan was not mistaken, they would add up to at least one million.
Although the two of them don't understand much, they have basic common sense, and now they look at it again, the commander of the five thunders is not easy to say, but compared with the master knife and the magic rope, whether it is a magic ruler or a rosary, it should be more valuable, and it must be used for more grand rituals.
And such a thing, Li Dingan said to send it?
The question is, have you only known them for a few days?
Duan Mu immediately took out his mobile phone: "Teacher Li, you estimate the price, how much money I will transfer to you!" ”
"Just give the money and forget it!" Li Dingan smiled, "I'd better keep it for myself!" ”
Even if he put aside his friends, if it weren't for the brothers and sisters, he wouldn't have known that there were relics of the Bada Shanren hidden in the alleys of the county seat, let alone there.
With this alone, these two things are also worth a thousand dollars......
Duan Mu immediately became anxious: "Teacher Li, don't ......"
Lao Duan also said yesterday: For business people, such things cannot be regarded as ordinary cultural relics, and they are hard to find...... So it's definitely going to be.
But to say for nothing?
This is very embarrassing: I was originally entrusted by someone to give a gift to Li Dingan, but I didn't give the gift, but I received one first?
was a little hesitant for a while, but Fu Yan was generous, and picked up the water bowl without thinking: "I already have the magic weapon of the Heavenly Master, so I will pick this one...... Thank you, Mr. Li......"
After a pause, she smiled again: "There are also master knives and tokens, thank you too, otherwise maybe I will give them away one day...... Last night, my mom and dad said "Can you have a meal and express your gratitude......"
Fu Yan's expression was a little strange, and Li Dingan was a little embarrassed to just think that she was a little girl, so she waved her hand indifferently: "I'll talk about it when I have time!" ”
Duan Mu's eyelids jumped: Please eat, please eat, why are you shy?
Surprised, Lei Mingzhen had already picked up the magic ruler and waved it twice: "I want this...... Canopy ruler, listen to the name and pull the wind! ”
Li Ding'an couldn't cry or laugh: This is the magic weapon of the main method of the Fu Gong faction, which has the meaning of "measuring the heavens and measuring the earth", even the heavenly master will not use it easily. I want Lao Lei to know that if you play with it like this, it will be light to whip you.
Aside from religious beliefs and only talking about the value of cultural relics, this thing is not ordinarily precious: because it is wooden, it is not generally difficult to preserve, and there are only a few pieces of canopy rulers in the Ming Dynasty that have been recorded so far, and most of them are semi-dilapidated. This piece is in such good condition that it can be called a "precious cultural relic".
The other two pieces together are not as good as this, so Lei Ming really has a good eye.
At this point, Duan Mu was not pretentious, picked up the copper bowl, and solemnly said thank you.
Li Dingan didn't speak, just smiled.
It is still Lei Mingzhen driving, and the county seat is not big, and it takes about ten minutes to reach the hotel.
Duan Mu shouted for a treat, but Li Dingan didn't refuse, saying that he would put the things back in the room first.
The four of them separated, and Lei Mingzhen followed behind Li Ding'an, and his voice was extremely low: "What are those two?" ”
"Print!"
"If you say more, you can be tired, who's it?"
"Niu Shihui!"
Lei Mingzhen found himself asking in vain: because he didn't know who Niu Shihui was.
"Where's the one you have?"
Li Ding'an wrapped around the copper ring: "It's also a seal!" ”
"Hmm...... Are you talking about the bird on this horn pendant? ”
Lei Mingzhen took a look, "Who's it, what is it for?" ”
Li Ding'an glanced left and right, and his voice was lower: "The inscription of the Bada Shanren!" ”
Lei Ming was really stunned, and his eyes were like lanterns.
Niu Shihui really didn't know, but the Bada Shanren ...... Or is it an inscription?
"I rely on ......"
This chapter carries on the past and the future, involving a lot of plots in the back, and there is a lot of information to check, so it has been written until now, and I ask readers to forgive me!
