The contact between my fingertips and the coffin was too smooth. It was not the touch that bronze should have at all. I didn't even feel the texture of the bronze patterns. Could it be that my perception was blocked again? Everything in front of me was still an illusion. ?

After being hit twice, I was already frightened and my heart was instantly lifted.

Seeing my nervous look, Shen Jiuer smiled and slid his fingers on the surface of the coffin several times. After confirming, he said to me: "Don't be nervous, it should be Liuli!"

"Liu Li!?"

After hearing Shen Jiuer's words, I thought carefully about the wall of the coffin again. Sure enough, I could see that the surface of those golden lines seemed to be covered with something. The color was extremely pure, with some small and uneven blisters. The distribution among them is indeed very similar to the characteristics of colored glaze.

No wonder the touch of my fingers just now was so smooth. I didn't expect that the surface of the bronze coffin was actually covered with a thin layer of colored glaze, covering all the original texture of the bronze. Although the heart held in the coffin could be slightly I let go, but my mood became increasingly uneasy.

The so-called colored glaze is actually what we call glass now. In today's society, glass can be said to be basically ubiquitous and common, but it was not common in ancient times, so it is also extremely precious. It ranks first among China's five famous utensils (gold, silver, jade, colored glaze, ceramics, and bronze). It is also known as one of the Seven Treasures of Buddhism. Therefore, it has extremely strict grade requirements for its users. It has been exclusively used by the royal family since ancient times. So it is rarely seen among the public.

The production process of ancient colored glaze is quite complicated. It requires dozens of processes to complete. Especially for some high-quality colored glazes, it is even more time-consuming and laborious. The production process alone takes at least ten or twenty days. time.

Moreover, all the processes are completed by hand, and it is quite difficult to grasp every link. Even the production masters with many years of experience can only say that the production of ancient colored glaze relies half on skill and more on luck. When a high-quality glass product appears, countless dignitaries will flock to it.

At this time, the surface of the huge coffin in front of us is completely covered with colored glaze. Not to mention the difficulty of firing the ancient colored glaze, it is only necessary to cover the entire surface of the coffin. The amount of colored glaze is already astonishing.

At the same time, the colored glaze must be melted and inlaid on the surface of the coffin with almost the same thickness to achieve a natural feeling, almost like a masterpiece.

Even to a certain extent, the production process of glaze-coated bronze before us is just as high as the production process of cloisonné. This has simply far surpassed the ancient Chinese glaze production process. Even with the current level of technology, I would like to think that To complete such a large project is definitely not something that can be completed in a short time.

"My darling, this should be something from the Ming Dynasty. It's so awesome! It's so awesome! If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, no one would believe it. My darling, with so much colored glaze and such exquisite craftsmanship, it's definitely worth it. This is a rare treasure. This is definitely a major discovery in the archaeological field. If nothing else, just

This thing can definitely enter the Palace Museum!"

At this time, Qian Shan's face was also full of horror. His eyes kept wandering over the coffin. At the same time, his hands carefully caressed the coffin as if caressing a woman's skin. If someone saw a fat man from a distance at this time, he would be full of horror.

His face was surrounded by a coffin and he was caressing it obscenely. I really didn’t know what to think in my heart.

"After the Ming Dynasty?!"

Hearing Qian Shan's words, I was even more surprised. Although China's glazed art has a history of more than 3,000 years, which can be traced back to the Shang and Zhou dynasties, it was basically lost in the Ming Dynasty. Even the very incomplete craftsmanship of the Ming Dynasty is still

Protected by grade, there are many colored glaze products from the Ming Dynasty extant, but those colored glazes were basically relatively opaque, so the colored glaze at that time was called medicinal jade.

"Ming Dynasty" records: The ornament awarded by the emperor to the number one scholar is medicinal jade, which is only available for those of fourth grade and above. Its preciousness can be imagined, but the colored glaze covering the bronze coffin in front of me is obviously crystal clear.

, it is completely different from the height that the craftsmanship after the Ming Dynasty can achieve. I couldn't help but ask Qian Shan: "Three Fatty, can you be sure that this thing is from after the Ming Dynasty? However, the production technology of ancient colored glaze was basically lost after the Ming Dynasty.

"

,

After hearing my words, Qian Shan looked away from the coffin, looked at me with some surprise and said, then pointed at the coffin with his finger: "Brother, let me give you some knowledge. There was no such pattern before the Ming Dynasty.

This pattern is derived from the cultural characteristics of the Han Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty."

"Therefore, if we narrow down the age of this bronze coffin, it should be from the late Ming Dynasty and early Qing Dynasty. However, the purity of this colored glaze is indeed far beyond the production process at that time, but it does not mean that such a process does not exist.

After all, the records on this aspect at that time were not detailed enough, and the craftsmanship of making colored glaze originally came into the country from outside the region. Although the craftsmen in the Ming Dynasty did not have the ability to make this coffin, it does not mean that there were no such skilled craftsmen outside the region."

Seeing that Qian Shan was so sure, I had doubts in my heart but it was hard to say anything. After all, professionally speaking, he and I were obviously not on the same level, and no matter whether our inferences were right or wrong, no one

Others can give us an accurate answer here, so we don’t have to worry about it anymore.

"Hey, Jiu'er, you should have more experience in this area than me. Who do you think the owner of this coffin will be?" Qian Shan asked Shen Jiu'er beside him while caressing the coffin.

Hearing Qian Shan's question, Shen Jiu'er obviously didn't know how to answer. Although he had had similar experiences in this kind of business of trying to get money, there were not many, and they were all the elders in the family before.

Under his leadership, even if he is stronger than me and Qian Shan, he is definitely not much stronger.

Although she has some basic knowledge about making coffins, she has never heard of anyone using glazed copper to make coffins, not to mention coffins, even some ancient antiques.

I didn't have the luxury to use such a production process in the first place, so I couldn't help but give him a fierce look: "How do I know? I just ask about everything. I just go up and see!"

Maybe he is used to being scolded by Shen Jiuer,

Qian Shan was not angry either. He rolled his little eyes, flashed a sly light, and smiled: "Look, third brother, I don't think you are well-informed. I'd better ask you first so that I can be mentally prepared in advance!" Little girl, your temper is so bad that I scared your seventh brother away, let’s see if you can find your husband’s family in the future!”

"You...Three Monkeys, if I don't deal with you for a few days, your skin will become loose!" Hearing Qian Shan's words, Shen Jiuer was furious at first, but then his pretty face turned crimson, and he rolled up his sleeves. I have to rush towards Qianshan.

Looking at the two of them, I couldn't help but feel helpless. This Qian Shan is just a master who has no wind and waves, but has higher winds and waves. Even though he is often punished by Shen Jiu'er, there is no door for his bad words. of.

In order to prevent the situation from escalating further, I quickly grabbed Shen Jiuer, but unexpectedly, Shen Jiuer moved one step faster than me, and I just caught Shen Jiuer's hand. For a moment, we The two of them stood there in a daze, as if frozen, neither letting go nor pulling on each other, it was terribly awkward.

Fortunately, Ma Jun was still there. Although he had a faint smile on his face, he still changed the subject at the right time: "Third Young Master, Seventh Young Master, Ninth Young Master, you two, don't argue, I'll go up first. Check it out!"

I immediately got off the slope, let go of Shen Jiuer's little hand, and grabbed Ma Jun: "Brother Jun, let me do it. If anything happens, you will be able to take care of me!"

As Ma Jun, who has the most experience and combat effectiveness in the entire team, once he falls into a crisis, I really don’t know if the rest of us have the ability to help him, and leaving him on the periphery is our biggest problem at this time. Ma Jun originally wanted to say something, but when he saw my firm eyes, he stopped insisting. Instead, he slowly picked up the gun in his hand and nervously paid attention to the movements around him.

I looked at Qian Shan and Shen Jiu'er, took a deep breath at the same time, and gently stepped up with my right foot, although at this time I was basically sure that there would be no such triggers on the steps under my feet. switch, but I was still very cautious and shifted the weight of my body towards my right foot little by little. It wasn't until the weight of my entire body completely fell on the steps that I let out a long breath. This process was extremely It's slow and consumes a lot of energy, but you have to be so careful.

After all, we know nothing about everything here, and the situation of the previous chess game in the air is more mysterious than the mysterious. Since this is the core of the tomb, who knows what kind of backhand the ancestors of Liuzhu will leave here. I try to keep myself in a state of ghost eyes and constantly expand the boundaries of perception.

Although there were only three short steps, I felt as if I had walked for half an hour. When I finally climbed the third step, both physical and mental strength seemed to have reached the limit. Although the ghost eye has been used many times, it has never been maintained for such a long time.
