Chapter 348 Shenlong Shenhu Inkstone

Bai Ming and Mao Lao laughed. Teacher Cai's tone was almost the same as when he was doing TV shows, and he always used this tone when facing those treasure appraisers.

Elder Zhou also nodded and smiled. Although he has never done a show before, he has watched some similar shows and knows how Teacher Cai usually behaves.

After laughing for a while, everyone stopped laughing. Bai Ming, Mr. Mao and Mr. Zhou were all surprised to find that Mr. Cai's expression became more and more serious, and his brows became more and more tight.

"Mr. Cai, is there anything else special about this inkstone?"

Bai Ming asked anxiously, he was impatient, he asked without seeing anything special after a quick glance, Mr. Mao and Mr. Zhou were now carefully looking at the damaged inkstone that Li Yang took out.

"Look at these two glyphs?"

Teacher Cai didn't raise his head, but just pointed to the two carved patterns of a dragon and a tiger that were revealed by Li Yang. Bai Ming was slightly taken aback, and hurriedly lowered his head to take a closer look.

Mr. Mao had already brought his eyes up, and deliberately took the inkstone from Teacher Cai and looked at it carefully.

After a while, the inkstone passed through the hands of several experts. Bai Ming frowned and was a little puzzled. Mr. Mao and Mr. Zhou had the same dignified expressions as Mr. Cai.

Bai Ming is still younger, and most of his studies are porcelain decorations. He is not particularly familiar with this kind of stone carvings, but he can also see that these two carvings are very unusual.

Bai Ming can't say exactly what's unusual, but I can only feel that the carvings of these two patterns are exquisite and extraordinary, not carved by ordinary people.

"Old Zhou, do you see anything?"

Teacher Cai suddenly turned his head and asked Mr. Zhou, but he didn't ask Mr. Mao and Bai Ming. They had been together a lot, and they were very familiar with each other for a long time, and they knew what they were good at.

"This Fang Sheyan, I haven't found anything yet!"

Mr. Zhou shook his head, and it took more than a minute to say this. He had seen something more than Bai Ming, but he couldn't guarantee it, so he didn't dare to say it.

"Mr. Cai, is there really something special about this dragon and tiger carving pattern?"

Bai Ming asked again, and Li Yang looked at Teacher Cai expectantly with wide eyes. He saw the same result as Bai Ming in the engraving on it, and now he was full of doubts.

"It's hard to say now, wait a minute, I'll use the computer to check the information!"

Teacher Cai shook his head and asked the staff to bring a laptop. Manager Cui came back as soon as the computer was delivered. Seeing that Teacher Cai asked for a computer, Manager Cui's forehead was also full of question marks.

He didn't know what happened until he asked the staff next to him. Looking at the incomplete ancient inkstone, Manager Cui's interest was also aroused.

As for the idea of ​​helping Li Yang look at things here, delaying the time for experts to appraise antiques for them, and other similar thoughts, he has never had any such thoughts.If you can establish a good relationship with Li Yang, it doesn't matter if you delay it for a day, even if you delay it for three days.

At this time, Li Yang didn't bother to explain anything to Manager Cui, and looked curiously at Mr. Cai looking up some information on the Internet. The current experts are also different from the previous thinking. Many experts know computers and pay attention to the Internet, otherwise There will be no things that are picked up and missed on the Internet.

It's just that there are still few older people who understand computers. Most of them still only rely on books, and they only read books to look up any information they need.

After a full 10 minutes, Cai Lao suddenly called out: "I found it, this is it!"

Several experts around and Li Yang hurriedly moved their heads to look at the things displayed on the computer screen in a daze. Even Manager Cui who was standing at the door couldn't help but ran over curiously.

"Shenlong Shenhu Yan?"

Bai Ming yelled, Mr. Mao and Mr. Zhou all looked at Mr. Cai with suspicion, even Li Yang.

"Yes, that's it!"

What everyone didn't expect was that Teacher Cai nodded seriously again, then picked up the inkstone and looked carefully at the dragon and tiger carvings on it.

"Teacher Cai, are you reading that right? This, is this a fairy tale?"

Bai Ming stared blankly at the display screen, Mr. Mao and Mr. Zhou couldn't help but nodded, and Li Yang also had the same expression.

The material Mr. Cai was looking for turned out to be a myth and legend, and the protagonist of the story was the famous Tang Bohu in history.

According to this fairy tale, Tang Bohu and Zhu Zhishan went to a temple once while traveling in the mountains. Make them very distressed.

Later, the abbot heard about this and told them that they used ordinary ink and ordinary paper, so of course they couldn’t draw a fairy scene, so the abbot waved his hand in front of them, and a flying dragon and a tiger appeared in the sky. .The abbot pulled down the dragon and the tiger and put them into a stone on the table. In a blink of an eye, the stone turned into an inkstone with carvings of a dragon and a tiger on it.

Afterwards, the abbot waved his hand again, and the unicorn and Venus appeared in the sky again. The abbot did the same, and made another unicorn and Venus inkstone and gave it to Zhu Zhishan.

Afterwards, the stone slab in front of them turned into white paper again, the abbot folded two willow branches into magic pens, and the dew falling from the sky turned into fairy ink. Tang Bohu and Zhu Zhishan used these things provided by the abbot to each They made a painting, and this time they finally showed all the fairy scenes in the temple in the painting, and the painting seemed to come alive.

Later, the abbot also liked these two paintings, so he kept them, but gave the two Shenlong inkstones as gifts to them. This is the origin and legend of Shenlong Shenhu inkstone.

Today, it is impossible for experts to believe in such myths and legends, so they all doubt whether Teacher Cai is deliberately teasing them.

As if seeing everyone's doubts, Teacher Cai smiled, shook his head again, and said: "The legend is a myth, but there is indeed a record in the history of the Shenlong Shenhu inkstone, and it is also a representative work of She Yan. But it’s not as exaggerated as the myths and legends say!”

"According to legend, Tang Bohu and Zhu Zhishan once went on a trip. When they arrived in Shecheng, they were attracted by the beautiful scenery of Shecheng, so they stayed temporarily and sold calligraphy and paintings for a living!"

Teacher Cai seemed to express his interest, and continued: "One day, there were many people who bought paintings, but their inkstones could not grind the ink. Both of them were very anxious, and Tang Bohu was even more anxious. sweat!"

"Later, a strong man in green shirt asked them: What kind of inkstone do you use? Tang Bohu replied: Shaoxing Yue Inkstone. The strong man in blue shirt said again: No wonder, it's not a famous inkstone. After speaking, the strong man ran to an ancient temple nearby. , and then took out two inkstones and gave them to Tang Bohu and Zhu Zhishan!"

"Are those two inkstones the same as the Shenlong Shenhu inkstone and the Qilin Venus inkstone?"

Manager Cui asked suddenly, he was completely attracted by Teacher Cai's story now, but Bai Ming curled his lips, thinking to himself: Another legend.

"That's right, it's these two famous inkstones. Tang Bohu held the Shenlongshenhu inkstone, touched it again and again, and felt it was very delicate. He breathed out clouds, and it became like oil when rubbed. Then Tang Bohu wrote two words of 'Bao Yan'. Big characters, signed as 'Tang Yin'. Zhu Zhishan was overjoyed when he looked at the shining gold inkstone, and wrote down five big characters of 'She inkstone Jia Tianxia', signed as 'Zhu Yunming', the strong man in green shirt saw these two people , was immediately overjoyed, and later became friends with the two of them!"

Teacher Cai nodded with a smile, and finished telling the story. Everyone nodded, but they were not convinced. Even Li Yang, the owner of the ancient inkstone, was half-believing.

Teacher Cai knew everyone's thoughts, and shook his head helplessly: "I know you don't believe it. Although this rumor has not been verified, this strong man in blue is a famous figure in history!"

"Who is it?" Bai Ming asked immediately.

"Wang Zhao!"

"It's him?"

Except for Teacher Cai, several people frowned. Both Li Yang and Manager Cui knew that the person Teacher Cai mentioned was a famous painter and a famous sculptor in the Ming Dynasty.

Familiarity with historical celebrities is the basic common sense of learning antiques. Even if you are not an expert, anyone who loves this industry and is involved in this industry must have a certain understanding of it.

"Yes, although this story has not been researched, it is an indisputable fact that Wang Zhao and Tang Yin collaborated to produce the famous "Inscription of Emperor Xuandi of Zixiao Palace". !"

The "Inscription of Emperor Xuandi of Zixiao Palace" that Teacher Cai said is true. This inscription is located on Zixiao Cliff in Qiyun Mountain, and the ancient She County was also called Huizhou, which is now HS City in AH Province.

"We know that inscription, but according to such a legend, we can't conclude that this is the dragon and tiger inkstone?"

Elder Zhou also frowned, his words spoke out everyone's heart, there are legends, and the dragon and tiger inkstones really existed, but who can guarantee that the ancient inkstone in front of you is the legendary god inkstone?
"I didn't say it must be, but I have a feeling that the ancient inkstone brought by Li Yang is probably the legendary dragon and tiger inkstone!"

Teacher Cai nodded, his tone full of emotion, Mr. Zhou and Mr. Mao were both stunned for a moment, and they laughed wryly together.

Feeling, feeling is very important, but it is not the criterion for judging. If it is just about feeling, they will not be convinced, even if it is what Teacher Cai said.

"Mr. Cai, do you have any other methods to prove that this is the legendary dragon and tiger inkstone?"

Li Yang rubbed his nose. In fact, he was willing to believe Teacher Cai's words. If this is the legendary dragon and tiger inkstone used by Tang Bohu, then he must have made a profit. The things involved must be much higher than the original value.

"Of course, Manager Cui, can I get some ink? Also, it's better to get a clean washbasin and a few bottles of pure water, can I?"

Teacher Cai nodded again, and turned around to say something to Manager Cui. Manager Cui was stunned for a moment, then hurried out, and personally ordered the staff here to prepare what Teacher Cai wanted.
