The voice in my head came.

"Identification!"

Zhang Yi said secretly in his heart.

"Bluestone box during the Republic of China."

Hearing this, Zhang Yi couldn't help but wonder, can he actually identify it?

Not solid, a stone box?

"This bluestone box is plain and unmarked, and the polishing workmanship is delicate. The bottom is open and hollow, which is convenient for storing and protecting other utensils. It is a genuine bluestone box for the Republic of China. ”

Really.

The identification is still very effective.

No wonder you can't see the lid on the top, it turns out that this stone box has an open bottom. It's like a hood that covers what's inside.

This design is ingenious.

At first, it looks like a large square stone, no different.

It's easy to overlook the opening underneath.

Because, the stone table under this is very well matched with this piece of bluestone, and there are almost no gaps.

"Dad, I know, this thing, hollow, let's lift this stone box."

"Something, it must be in the stone box."

Zhang Guoshan raised his eyebrows, and asked while carrying the stone box with Zhang Yi.

"How do you know this?"

Zhang Yi stretched out his hand and knocked on it.

There is a difference between a hollow one and a solid one, and although the stone wall is thicker, there is a difference between the one and the other when you look closely.

"No wonder your grandfather has to let you come, it seems that you have a relationship with the things here! If it weren't for you, I'm afraid there wouldn't be a second person who would have found this place. ”

Zhang Guoshan couldn't help but sigh.

However, he didn't dwell too much on it.

Forthwith.

The two lifted the stone box.

The contents were also revealed.

The stone box was very heavy, and the two of them carefully set it aside.

And what is left on the stone platform.

Be......

Seriously, I really don't know what that is.

In a word.

It should be bronze.

It's also roughly a cube as a whole.

It seems that the bluestone box with the bottom opening on the outside should be tailor-made for it.

Bronze, popular in the Neolithic period, to the Qin and Han dynasties.

The utensils of the Shang and Zhou dynasties are the most exquisite.

In fact, the material used in bronze is, in modern terms, a kind of alloy copper. Pure copper, alloy copper made by adding tin and lead, etc.

Patina, blue-green.

In different historical periods, there are certain differences in the ornamental characteristics, and the shapes of the utensils also have their own characteristics. These can generally be used as the identification and dating standards of bronzes.

At first glance, Zhang Yi didn't know what kind of artifact this was.

Because, never seen before.

Cube, but because of the lines on it, it doesn't look so regular.

The lines, nor the common dragon pattern, the dragon pattern, nor the kind of cloud pattern valley pattern, I can't say, what kind of texture should those be.

In short, there is something weird.

That feeling is like seeing the Sanxingdui ruins in the Sichuan and Shu regions, and those weird bronze statues bring the same sense of déjà vu.

Of course, this bronze is not the same as Sanxingdui in style.

It's just that they all have that indescribable, weird feeling.

Zhang Yi reached over and touched it gently.

Prepare for a validation.

See if there are any results.

But.

The result is the same, it cannot be identified.

As he imagined, the stone box could be identified because it was not something that could be found by the treasure hunting ability in the first place. The treasure hunt found this strange bronze artifact.

At that time, after the treasure hunting ability, there was no direct identification.

At this time.

It can't be identified, but it is also within Zhang Yi's expectations.

Zhang Yi's father is also engaged in the antique industry, Zhang Yi knew very little before, but later Uncle Chen and Peng experts mentioned that Zhang Guoshan's eyesight is also very good.

Zhang Yi didn't understand this bronze, and he couldn't identify it, so he had to ask.

"Dad, what do you think?"

Zhang Guoshan squatted down, already carefully observing.

Zhang Yi asked.

Zhang Guoshan sighed slightly.

"Xiao Yi, seriously, I've never seen this kind of bronze! Judging from the oxidation and the material of bronze, it may be traced back to the Shang and Zhou dynasties. ”

"However, during the Shang and Zhou dynasties, it seems that I have never seen this kind of artifact."

At this point, he paused, and then continued.

"In the late Shang Dynasty, by the middle of the Western Zhou Dynasty, there was a kind of wine vessel, which was square, which was slightly similar to this one. That kind of bronze wine vessel is called Fang Yi. It's just that there is a lid on the top of Fang Yi, and the shape of the lid is different, generally similar to the slope shape of a roof. ”

Zhang Yi nodded slightly.

"Dad, I've heard of Fang Yi you said. Previously, at the auction in Xiangjiang, there was a auction price, and the transaction price was more than 12 million, which was decent. ”

"Compared to this bronze vessel, it's just a wine container. My grandparents attach so much importance to it, this shouldn't be a wine container, right? ”

Zhang Yi took it just now, this bronze is very heavy.

It's as if it's solid inside.

Even if it is not solid, it is a kind of bronze with a thicker outer wall.

If it's a container for sake, it doesn't have to be made like this.

What exactly this thing is, and why it is so valued by grandparents and placed in this place, this is really hard to guess now.

In Grandpa Zhang Yi's suicide note, all the clues finally point to this strange bronze.

Other than that.

The power of treasure hunting finally points here.

In the grandmother's house outside, there are more valuable things than Fang Yi, and the ability to hunt for treasures should be the things there. The choice of this bronze is enough to show that it is special.

"Xiao Yi, come and see."

"There seems to be a very small gap in the texture of this bronze."

Zhang Guoshan had been observing this bronze artifact, and at this time, he had made a discovery.

Hearing this, Zhang Yi also leaned over.

Look carefully.

Indeed, as Zhang Yi's father said, there are hair-thin lines between the strange lines of this bronze, or rather, grooves.

Moreover, these subtle grooves also look very regular and very regular.

"Dad, during the Shang and Zhou dynasties, can the lines on the bronzes be so subtle?"

Zhang Yi asked.

"Can't!"

Zhang Guoshan did not hesitate and directly denied it.

Because, this kind of subtle and regular texture is very deep, and it is almost described as precise.

In those days, with low productivity, it was simply not possible.

"Then this bronze, isn't it a disorder of the times?"

The characteristics of the times are disordered, one is a post-imitation, and the other is a fake.

Being so valued by Zhang Yi's grandparents is the answer to the treasure hunt, presumably, this bronze will definitely not be the above two situations.
