Live Jianbao: Baoyou, you are very wrong

Chapter 331 The horseshoe-shaped Xuanyun Ziwu is really a giraffe
"It's not about pigs, it's about information."

Ning Fan laughed.

"The ancient people were not like they are now. They could search for things on the Internet, and all things were transmitted either by pictures or written descriptions."

"The lion is not a native animal of the Xia Kingdom. It would be nice to have an image passed on."

"God knows how different the introduction the kiln workers found was from the original lion."

When Ning Fan said this, he directly sent four pictures.

"This is still a painting of a giraffe from the Ming Dynasty. Can you see what's wrong?"

Baoyou looked at it and didn't know where to start complaining.

The four paintings that Ning Fan posted were all giraffes, but only the first two were slightly similar, at least the height and figure were correct, but the last two had become a bit outrageous.

One is the size of a giraffe that has been transformed into a horse-like shape, and the other is almost exactly the same as the legendary unicorn.

"The front feet are nine feet high, the back is six feet, the neck is six feet long, with two short horns, ox tail, and deer body."

"This is the record of the giraffe in the Ming Dynasty. It is a rare animal specially brought back by Zheng He when he went to the West."

"Ming Chengzu also specially asked the Hanlin Academy to write "Ode to Ruiying Qilin". His literary talent was outstanding and he was rewarded. He also received a painting "Ode to Qilin Shen Du" named after him."

"Of course, the description on the painting is outrageous."

"The shape is five feet tall, the body is like a horse's hoof, the clouds are dark and purple, and the toes do not touch things..."

"???"

The friends are full of doubts.

What is this description?
If they didn't know that this is a giraffe, they would really think this is a unicorn.

Returning mysterious clouds and purple mist, but not touching things with your toes, isn't this basically saying that there are purple clouds and mist around the giraffe, soaring in the sky?
When they saw the descriptions on the next two paintings, they were completely speechless.

As expected, the giraffe has already started to ride the clouds and the fog. It travels thousands of miles a day, thunder and rain dew when it travels, and mountains and rivers are auspicious when it is quiet.

"Gossip, that's all."

Ning Fan was very indifferent.

"Many things in ancient times were not seen by the creators with their own eyes. They can only be described based on drawings and text information."

"The giraffe is like this, and so is the lion. If you look at the descriptions of the lion by the predecessors, you will know that this lion statue is a restoration."

"Other lion-shaped items in the Tang Dynasty were either dog-headed or unicorn-shaped."

"The dog's head is a female lion, and the unicorn is a male lion. The shape is more obvious."

"Only the few lion statues in Qianling Mausoleum are more vivid, and later they became imitations of stone lions."

"Zhou Quan's "Lion Picture" in the Ming Dynasty is more vivid. When you see it, you know that this candlestick is already very good."

The treasure friends didn't believe in evil, they checked according to what Ning Fan said, and they were all stupid.

"How could there be such an ugly lion?"

Baoyou said with emotion at the same time.

They have seen many lion portraits and sculptures, but this is the first time they have seen such an ugly lion in China.

It is more appropriate to say that it is a cultural relic, rather than a funny cartoon.

The lion is drawn like a cute emoji, with a mustache up, and the fur around the neck is blown out, like Mr. Tony who has just washed and dried his hair.

If it weren't for what they searched together.

Knowing that this is the "Lion Picture" of the Ming Dynasty, which is the most serious and serious, it is the highest level of realistic painting of lions in ancient Xia.

They all thought it was the new work of some funny painter.

"Now it's not surprising why the lion grows up like this?"

"It's not surprising."

After looking at the picture of the lion, the treasure friends actually think that the lion on the candlestick is quite pleasing to the eye.

Speaking of candlesticks, another question comes to mind.

"There were candles in the Tang Dynasty, and candlesticks are considered good things, isn't it?"

Friends don't quite understand.

"That depends on who it is."

Ning Fan raised his eyes and said slowly.

"Candles were a luxury item in the Tang Dynasty."

"It is recorded in the "Song Huiyao Collection Draft" that during the reign of Emperor Shenzong of the Song Dynasty, the funeral rituals given to courtiers by the court were candles. Each candle was 150 Wen, and the regular candle was [-] Wen."

"However, this price is more than half cheaper than that of the Tang Dynasty."

"During the Tang Dynasty, every time Yang Guozhong held a banquet, he had his maidservants stand around holding candles, and named it Zhuwei specially to show off his wealth."

"Ouyang Xiu in the Song Dynasty also specially advised courtiers to light less wax and more lamps to avoid extravagance."

"Even the emperor's brother-in-law has to show off his wealth by lighting candles. What do you think of the value of this thing?"

The treasure friends were stunned. They never thought that such a common thing as candles could be used by the royal relatives to show off their wealth.

"Master Ning is right."

"A candle requires half a day's income for ordinary people. Su Shidao is the governor. Although he can afford candles, it's unnecessary."

"What's more, at that time, oil lamps were not expensive, and the brightness was sufficient, so there was no need for daily use at all."

Tang Qisheng also appeared in the live broadcast room and introduced some lighting conditions of people in the Tang Dynasty.

In order to save fuel, even a double-layer oil lamp has been developed, and water is used to reduce the oil temperature and reduce volatilization.

The treasure friends found it incredible, and asked Tang Qisheng to tell more stories.

"It's better to ask Master Ning to appraise Baoyou quickly. If you like to listen, I will also give a live lecture another day."

Tang Qisheng didn't want to overwhelm the guests, so the live broadcast room was returned to Ning Fan.

Ning Fan talked to Baoyou about the things again, and changed to a new Baoyou to look at the things.

"Master Ning, something happened to Miss Li."

Before it was connected, the voice of Banliangjin came.

Ning Fan frowned, turned off the live broadcast and went to check the situation.

Looking at it from here, Li Mo'er can still have an accident, which is really a bit wrong.

"what's the situation?"

Li Mo'er drew the curtain in the quiet room to apply heat, but Ning Fan didn't go in, and only asked about the situation through the curtain.

"Blood, bleeding, a lot."

"Master Ning, am I going to die?"

Li Mo'er's voice trembled.

Ning Fan was a little puzzled.

He has seen the prescription of Xivasan, there are strong medicines, but they are also applied externally, and the medicines taken internally are all warming and tonic, and they don't have such tiger-like medicinal properties.

How could Li Mo'er bleed?

"Unless there is one situation, Li Mo'er's limbs and bones can't even withstand this medicine, and the capillaries burst and cause violent blood."

"People will die."

Ning Fan lifted the curtain and looked at Li Mo'er, frowning.

The original bed was replaced by a bathtub, and Li Mo'er was lying in the bathtub with the medicine powder all over her body, and a layer of plastic wrap tightly wrapped her body.

Her slender figure was looming under the powder, and some white and tender skin was faintly exposed.

Only blood can't be seen.

The whole body, only the face has two red marks.

"Nosebleeds count as bleeding? Did you learn medicine from your apprentices?"

"I... I'm just too nervous, Master Ning, I'm sorry!"

Li Mo'er sat up, apologized after agitating.

Ning Fan's eyes dropped, seeing that the slender body originally hidden under the bathtub was a bright red, shook his head, and closed the curtain.

"Wait until it's fully absorbed and take a shower."
