Jianbao life

Chapter 585

After carefully diagnosing Wang Shunnan, Chu Chen said with a smile: "Uncle Wang, with your current recovery level, you should be able to get out of bed and walk around as long as you take another week of medicine, but you have to remember that within three months, you will be able to walk around." Don't get tired, otherwise it will have a great impact on your body's recovery."

Wang Shunnan didn't know that he might not be able to do heavy work in the future, but even so, he felt very uncomfortable when he heard Chu Chen say that he would take a three-month rest. He really had to worry about his family's livelihood.

"Thank you doctor, if it wasn't for you this time, my life would be gone." Wang Shunnan said gratefully.

Chu Chen said with a smile on his face: "Uncle, don't be so polite. For a doctor, it is also necessary to save lives and heal the wounded. By the way, Uncle, I want to ask, what does that thing you picked up look like?"

"That thing is similar to the soft-shelled turtles we usually see. Could it really make me so seriously ill?"
Although Wang Shunnan already knew the reason for his illness from his wife, he still felt a little dubious about it. After all, it looked like a soft-shelled turtle. How could it almost kill him?
"Uncle Wang, judging from your symptoms and the effect of the treatment, it should indeed be poisoned by the mythical creature. If you think about it carefully, doesn't that thing only have three legs?"

Chu Chen also knew that it was normal for Wang Shunnan to have such doubts. If Wang Shunnan's symptoms were not the same as those of being poisoned by a mythical creature, he would not believe that there is such an animal as a mythical creature in the world.

Wang Shunnan frowned and thought for a while, then said in surprise: "It's true, I only saw three legs on that thing, and I thought it was eaten by a fish or something. , is that thing really not a turtle, but that thing called a creature?"

Hearing what he said, Chu Chen basically concluded that what Wang Shunnan picked up was indeed the legendary creature, so he hurriedly asked Wang Shunnan the current location of the remains of that creature.

"Doctor Chu, you are not familiar with the mountain, let Xiaoshan take you there!" Wang Shunnan said.

"Okay, then I will trouble you..."

Next, Chu Chen changed into the equipment for entering the mountain, and set off with Wang Xiaoshan. Originally, Liu Sizhe and the others wanted to follow, but they were all wearing casual clothes and leather shoes, and they hadn't changed yet. I could only stay in dismay.

In fact, to be honest, there is really nothing to see in the mountains in winter, and Chu Chen is planning to go back today, so after entering the mountains, the two have been on their way.In this way, after more than two hours of uninterrupted marching, Chu Chen and Wang Xiaoshan finally came to the creek that Wang Shunnan mentioned.

However, maybe it was Chu Chen's bad luck, or God didn't want the creature to see the light of day again. The two of them searched upstream from the lower stream, but they didn't find the remains of the creature.In the end, seeing that it was almost noon, Chu Chen could only stop searching in disappointment, then hurriedly ate dry food and set off back.

After going down the mountain, everyone was somewhat disappointed when they heard that the remains of the creature had not been found, but there was nothing they could do about it.

Seeing that the time had passed two o'clock, thinking that they had to rush to Fucheng today, Chu Chen and the others said goodbye and left...

Sitting in the car, Liu Sizhe said with some regret: "I thought I could solve the eternal mystery, but I didn't expect to find it, and I don't know where the remains of that creature went!"

Chu Chen was also disappointed by this, and said: "The stream flows very fast, and the trend along the way is very gentle, and so many days have passed, I think it may have been washed into the downstream lake went."

"Brother Chen, why don't I ask someone to help me find it again?" Duan Kun suggested.

Chu Chen felt a little reconciled, so he nodded and said, "Then let's look for it again, but Wang Xiaoshan said that the lake downstream is very big and deep, so if you really rushed into the lake, then forget it. "

"Okay, I got it!" After finishing speaking, Duan Kun took out his mobile phone and made a call.

After a while, Duan Kun hung up the phone and said, "They will come tomorrow. I will ask them to search carefully for three days. If they can't find it again, it will probably be very difficult to find."

Chu Chen nodded and said, "Well, it's okay if you can't find it. Besides, after so many days, I think there is probably only a shell left, and the research value is probably not that great."

Liu Sizhe said with a smile: "Actually, I think it's better to study Bixi. If you study Bixi thoroughly, you can develop a universal antidote. Not to mention the contribution to society, it will be difficult not to make a fortune by then." !"

Chu Chen smiled and said, "That's a good idea. After I go back, I'll take the remaining liquid medicine to the laboratory for research..."

Everyone talked and laughed for a while, and after passing the rugged mountain road, Chu Chen suddenly realized that the mechanism box hadn't been opened yet, so he took it out from the back of the car.

"Brother Chen, how did you crack this box?" Liu Sizhe asked hastily.

Chu Chen replied: "There are still a few last steps, I guess when I arrive in Fucheng, I should be able to open the box..."

Next, relying on his photographic memory, just as Chu Chen said, when their car was about to arrive in Fucheng, he finally cracked the trick box successfully.

Open the lid of the box, the inside is just like what Chu Chen "saw" before, the surroundings are covered with cotton, leaving no gaps.

Liu Sizhe couldn't wait to say: "Let me tell you, why is there nothing in the trick box, Brother Chen, let's see what's inside?"

Wang Xiangong and Hu Yong also stared at the movements of Chu Chen's hands, and they were also very curious about the contents of the box.

Chu Chen took out a plastic bag, first took out the very strong cotton in the box and put it in the bag, and immediately a small and exquisite printing box caught everyone's eyes.

The printing box is not big, only about 8 cm high. The box should be made of colorful crafts in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties. It is rounded and square. Wire.

After careful observation, Chu Chen found that the whole box is made of precious red sandalwood, which presents a regular and solemn appearance, with a deep and honest feeling, and a square atmosphere.The red sandalwood has a quiet and deep color, is polished carefully, and the texture of the material is faintly visible. It is decorated and fixed with copper parts, revealing a delicate and elegant literati atmosphere, which is quite commendable.

After seeing the printed box, Liu Sizhe couldn't help but admire: "This box is not bad. If there is a seal inside, I think it must be extraordinary."

"What's the matter, just open it and see." Chu Chen opened the box with a smile.

Seeing what was inside the box, Liu Sizhe opened his eyes wide and said, "This... this is the seal!"

In fact, not only Liu Sizhe, but even Chu Chen were equally astonished. Although he had used Lingbao Eye before, he only saw the printed box and didn't go into it deeply, because he was afraid that if the things inside the box were too valuable, , At that time, he couldn't help showing surprise.

And the result really shocked him, there was a seal in the box!
The function of the seal must be known to everyone. This seal is about four centimeters wide and five centimeters high. It is made of Hetian high-grade suet white jade.

Its patina is natural and bright, and the seal button is carved with a panlong, which is a typical style of the early Ming Dynasty. Its craftsmanship is exquisite, finely ground and cut, with strong lines and a combination of hardness and softness, which shows the extraordinary skills of jade masters.

Chu Chen turned over the seal, revealing the seal. Wang Xiangong was dumbfounded and exclaimed, "This... this... is actually "Da Ben Tang Ji", how is this possible?!"

The "Dabentang" mentioned by Wang Xiangong is a place for the princes to study in the early Ming Dynasty. For example, in Ming Dynasty's "Biography of the Crown Prince", it mentioned the Dabentang: "In the first year of Hongwu, it was recorded as the crown prince. . . Books filled it. Later, famous Confucianists from all over the world were recruited, accompanied by princes and other kings, divided into nights, and occasionally wrote poems and discussed political affairs."

According to historical records, in the first month of the fourth year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered a jade seal to be made and presented to the then crown prince.This seal is a Panlong button, with a square width of one inch and two centimeters (4cm), and a height of one inch and six centimeters (5.33cm), and the printed text is "Da Ben Tang Ji".Obviously, the seal in Chu Chen's hand was exactly the same as the record.

Speaking of which, it is clearly recorded that the making of the seal in the Ming Dynasty was in the first year of Hongwu.Prior to this, Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang had always wanted to engrave a national treasure, but he couldn't find satisfactory materials, so he had been procrastinating.

One day in the first lunar month of this year, a businessman named Hu Fuhai presented a piece of beautiful jade to Zhu Yuanzhang, saying that it was an ancestral treasure of his family, produced in Khotan (Western Region), and could be used to make imperial treasures.

Zhu Yuanzhang was very happy when he heard the news, and hurriedly called a jade worker to check it. It was indeed a good piece of jade, so Zhu Yuanzhang ordered to use this piece of jade to carve a national treasure.In September of the second year of Hongwu, the Six Seals of Chengyu were made.At the end of the Hongwu Dynasty, there were seventeen imperial treasures in total.

But there was an unforeseen situation. In the first month of the ninth year of Zhengde, a fire broke out in the palace, and the Seventeen Treasures were severely damaged.Therefore, in February of the 18th year of Jiajing, it was repaired again.According to the records of "Records of Emperor Shizong of Ming Dynasty", a total of eleven imperial treasures were made this time. Except for the four original treasures of Hongwu Seventeen, the other seven were newly added. There are a total of 24 squares of imperial treasures, which will not be changed in the future and become customized.

Actually, speaking of it, this seal is only an idle seal, but even so it is already very remarkable. You must know that there are not many seals left by the Ming people, and most of them are made of stone.

Judging from the material of the seal in front of Chu Chen, the jade material used is probably the piece of beautiful jade that Hu Fuhai presented to Zhu Yuanzhang at the beginning. The impact of the fire also indirectly increased the value of this seal.

Moreover, although the seal of the Ming Dynasty in the Forbidden City is the same, it is not the original seal. Therefore, the seal bestowed by Zhu Yuanzhang to the crown prince is even more precious...
