Chapter 53 Xuande Furnace

Besides, after Jiang Yang and Ou Zhou returned to the small building.

As soon as Ou Zhou entered the room, he said, "I was afraid of Shui Jingxin's curiosity along the way, so I didn't dare to tell. Brother, have you noticed that this pigeon blood stone is related to Empress Wu Zetian."

Jiang Yang was surprised and said: "I only see that it is from the Tang Dynasty. How do you determine that this pigeon blood stone is related to Wu Zetian?"

"When I was in the jewelry store, I saw the pigeon blood stone on the queen's chest through the method of exploring my heart."

"Hey, why didn't I see it?" Jiang Yang asked in surprise.

"There were so many people at that time, you probably didn't look carefully, now it's just me, brother, why not take another look."

"That's good." Jiang Yang took the pigeon blood stone, and after a while, Mo Yundong explored Wei Xin's method.Sighing slightly, he said: "Junior brother, it seems that you are already a realm higher than me in the cultivation of the mind. Could it be that you have entered the sixth floor?"

"When I performed the method of exploring the micro-mind, I could hear the sound of insects and ants fifty kilometers away."

"I can only hear it thirty kilometers away. Junior brother, congratulations, your progress has surpassed mine."

Ou Zhou said modestly: "I just prefer this magical method."

"Like is one thing, understanding is another. Your understanding in Taekwondo is higher than mine. From this point of view, your Taiyang Heart Sutra must also be much higher than mine."

Ou Zhou eagerly said, "We haven't competed since the Youth Games. It's getting late now, why don't we compare?"

"Okay, go out or stay in the house?"

"If it's in the house, I'm worried about damaging the structure of the house." Ou Zhou rubbed the back of his head and smiled.

"But, if you go out, you are not afraid of being seen."

"You might as well wait a little longer, after midnight, and compare again."

"Forget it, junior brother, with your aptitude, even if you don't surpass me now, it won't be long. By the way, just now you said that the pigeon blood stone is related to the queen. After midnight, we might as well use the method of connecting the ancients and the present, and use the letter incense When I meet the Empress, firstly, to identify whether the Pigeon Blood Stone is hers, secondly, to see the Empress' demeanor, and thirdly, to understand why she left the stele without words?"

Ou Zhou clapped his hands and laughed, "Brother, I originally meant that. The two of us can always think of each other in everything."

"There is one aspect that we can't think of together." Jiang Yang corrected.

Ou Zhou rubbed the back of his head and smiled, "Brother, you mean I always want to compete in martial arts?"

"Twice. Last time, it was the first day of the Youth Games Taekwondo Champion Cup final, remember?"

"How could I forget!" Ou Zhou smiled embarrassedly.

Jiang Yang smiled understandingly: "Let's go down and fill our stomachs first."

"Okay, brother."

……

Returning to the small building after dinner, Ou Zhou said: "Brother, I think at our current speed, the university courses can be completed in at most two years. Should we choose a subject and apply for a graduate student earlier?"

"Originally, based on our grades, the school will definitely guarantee graduate studies, but that qualification can only be obtained after graduation. We might as well plan to complete the sophomore courses before the end of the freshman year, and complete the junior course before the end of the sophomore year." Senior year courses. After that, take part in the same period of postgraduate recruitment."

"Brother, let's do this."

"Similarly, after passing the postgraduate entrance examination, we strive to finish all the postgraduate courses in one year, and then participate in the doctoral examination. When our classmates graduate from university, we will get a doctorate and we can start the research work of metaeconomics. "

"Yes, time waits for no one. The sooner this research is carried out, the sooner Senior Liu Ji's wish can be realized."

"Then, let's make a study schedule and follow it in the future."

"Okay, brother, I completely agree."

Counting the time, half a month has passed. When Ou Zhou took out the incense burner soaked in old vinegar, the rust from earlier was almost peeled off.

He rinsed it under the tap and wiped it inside and out with a rag.

Under the light, the incense burner glows with a bronze luster, and the tentacles are warm.At this moment, the words engraved on the bottom are particularly clear.

Looking at it, Ou Zhou frowned: "Hey, how could there be peeling?" As he spoke, he used his nails to snap off an irregular copper sheet about two millimeters thick from the joint between the furnace ear and the furnace body. .

Jiang Yang also came over, took the thumb-sized piece of copper, and looked at it over and over.

Ou Zhou's heart suddenly moved, he took a flat-blade screwdriver, and began to remove the peeling spots bit by bit.

As the cleaning area continued to expand, the two of them could see that the incense burner had been covered with a layer of copper inside and outside by people using superb skills.

After about an hour of effort, the coating on the incense burner was completely removed.

At this moment, the necklace looks smaller and much thinner than before, but it is still very thick.

"No wonder it's clumsy and heavy, so that's what happened." Jiang Yang said in surprise.

Ou Zhou took the cleaned incense burner under the faucet to rinse it again, and then wiped it slowly with a rag under the light.

A shocking scene appeared.

The censer with the coating removed emits a subtle and deep crape myrtle light, just like eggplant purple.

The tentacles are delicate and moist, with a great skin feeling.

Outside the furnace body, on the top corresponding to the feet, there are three auspicious beasts, which are lifelike and lifelike.

Looking at the bottom again, there are six characters made in the year of Xuande in the Ming Dynasty, with golden hooks and iron strokes, full of charm.

Ou Zhou and Jiang Yang couldn't help but looked at each other in shock.

After a long time, Ou Zhou sighed and said, "I watched a TV series before, and there was Baoyushu in it. I never imagined that I would be lucky enough to see Tongbaoshu. It seems that this is the famous Xuande Furnace."

Jiang Yang took a breath and said with a smile: "The ancients tried their best to cover up the true face of the Xuande stove with copper cladding, which shows how precious it is."

"The censer personally supervised by Emperor Xuande Zhu Zhanji is not precious. Throughout the ages, no matter the material or origin, there is no censer that can compare."

"It is said that the shape of the utensil is selected from "Xuanhe Bogutu", and the copper material is refined wind-milled copper from Siam."

"Not only that, gold and silver were added to it. After four times of repeated smelting, after selecting the best, only three thousand incense burners were cast."

"During the Xuande period, it was already hard to find."

"But, who would spend such effort to cover up the true face of this Xuande furnace?"

"Those who have such amazing skills are either great collectors in the early Qing Dynasty or craftsmen with extremely high smelting skills."

"But why would they do that?"

"Wrapping jade is to cover up the truth of the Buddha's head, is copper wrapping just to cover up the identity of Xuande furnace?"

"Yes, there is only one Buddha head, but the Xuande Furnace has cast three thousand statues. What secret is there to hide?"

Ou Zhou picked up the censer, looked inside and out of the light, shook his head, and sighed: "I don't see any peculiar aspects."

"Why not, try using the method of exploring the micro-mind."

"Yeah, how could you forget this when you're happy?"

Ou Zhou focused his attention and used the method of exploring the subtle mind. After a while, he could only confirm that the incense burner was indeed made in Xuande, and there was no other information other than that.

Jiang Yang acted in accordance with the law and found nothing.

"Could it be that our Dongyou Detective Weixin method is too low to see the secrets in the incense burner?" Ou Zhou asked suddenly.

"Maybe." Jiang Yang was noncommittal.

"Brother, you said that we have discovered the treasures handed down from generation to generation one after another. Is it related to our possession of the Xuanji Economy?"

"If it weren't for that, there wouldn't be such good luck."

"However, since it is related to Xuan Jijing, then these treasures should hide secrets related to Xuan Jijing!"

"Yeah, ordinary things, we will not be arranged to meet them in the dark."

"Brother, if such a precious thing is kept indoors, what if a small thief comes?"

"That's right, the ancients tried their best to cover up their identities with copper cladding. We put them indoors casually, and we are sorry for the original owner of the incense burner."

"How about we buy a safe?"

"Yes, as long as we go to Panjiayuan, we can always find treasures. There will be more and more treasures in the future, so it's time to buy a safe. And it must be one size bigger."

"Then order one online now, and it will arrive tomorrow. In addition, in case of accidents, we need to install a pinhole camera."

"Okay, let's do it like this," Jiang Yang said.

"This copper wrapping technique is really extraordinary. It can actually hide from our deep-seated detective skills." Ou Zhou said with a smile.

"The wisdom of the ancients was broad and profound, and many of their achievements cannot be explained even by today's science."

"That's right, as far as Xuanjijing is concerned, the astronomy, geography, military art, warfare, and humanities covered in it are enough for us to spend a lifetime of research."

"Four years later, we must get a Ph.D."

"That's right, only those with rich knowledge can carry out the research on Xuanjijing."

"Well, Master Zhang also meant the same thing."

Ou Zhou looked at the time and said with a smile, "It's already midnight, let's use this Xuande stove first to pay homage to the queen's demeanor."

"Very good, once we solve the mystery of the pigeon blood stone, we will immediately be worth a hundred times."

"Hahaha, I'm excited just thinking about it."

"But I don't know, does the empress still remember this pigeon blood stone?"

"Since it is related to Xuan Jijing, I must remember it."

"hope so."
