Don't pretend, anchor, I've seen you touch the golden talisman!

Chapter 301

According to the current historical records, when the nine tripods were cast, there was no uniform requirement for the shape and style.

There are also certain differences in the forging techniques and shape choices of craftsmen from various regions.

The "Qingzhou Ding" in front of everyone is a tripod with a round belly.

Basically, it is the most common type of tripod among all kinds of tripods unearthed.

I usually talk about words like "One word, nine tripods", but when I actually see that this is a representative of the supreme imperial power of the Chinese nation, it is just a scaled-down replica, and it also makes people feel the weight of history. The feeling came over me.

However, the fate of this "Qingzhou Ding" was bumpy. After changing hands several times, it was displaced.

After being immersed in the water for hundreds of years, he was able to see the light of day again.

Although Lin Yi already used an ultra-high-definition camera, the decorations on it were blurred and hard to recognize. After being scaled down and printed out, they were simply blurred, but the unique temperament still existed.

"No wonder this thing can become a symbol of 'imperial power'. If this thing were enlarged ten times and placed in the square, let alone the princes, who would not be confused after seeing this scene?"

Qian Sheng caressed the lines on the replica with trembling hands, unable to calm down for a long time.

"It's a pity that my water quality is not good and my physical condition does not allow it. Otherwise, I would go down with my elder brother so that I can see the true appearance of this 'Qingzhou Cauldron' with my own eyes.

We, the Qian family, have dealt with antiques for so many years, if we can see and touch this Qingzhou tripod with our own eyes, we will die without regret. "

"Then when you saw this high-definition picture and this 3D printed replica today, do you think you should go and knock one on your ancestral grave?"

"Brother Qiang, you are absolutely right. We will always tell Naiweng about the family sacrifices. On the day of our old man's memorial day, I must let him know that we have done such a big thing."

The two teased each other, and the old man Bai beside him cheerfully stopped him:

"Okay, okay, no kidding, talk about business!

Although the decorations are not very clear, apart from Wang Sunman's self-report in "Zuo Zhuan" about the decorations on the Jiuding, there was a man named Wang Xidan in the Ming Dynasty.Once published a book "Illustrated Description of Dayu Jiuding".

This man is said to have been entrusted with a dream and told him what the decorations on the Jiuding were.

Then he picked up a pen and recorded them, namely Luoshu Ding, Qianxiang Ding, Jiuhe Ding, Jiuzhou Ding, Wuyue Sidu Ding, Jiujiao Ding, Yaoqiaoyuxiang Ding, Foreign Object Lingyu Ding, Flying away Zhaorui Ding.

As the name suggests, these nine tripods are engraved with Luoshu, Yin and Yang gossip, rivers, Kyushu territory, five mountains and four waters, crops, auspicious celestial phenomena, strange objects, spirits and animals, and birds and beasts. "

Qian Sheng continued what Mr. Bai said and added:

"Sir, I know this book. The contents of this book were read for fun in the past. No one thought there was any basis for what he said. Everyone in the industry also believed that this was Wang Xidan's imaginary work. When you bring it up again, sir, it is in line with the two of us in front of us, it seems that what he said also makes sense."

Lin Yi shook his head.

"I think that the description of Wang Sunman in "Zuo Zhuan" and the records in Wang Xidan's book can explain the true meaning of the decoration on Jiuding.

The ancients did not have the conditions now, and they could understand the world we live in from the "God's perspective".

How did the people in charge of their various state capitals know the contents of the Luoshu, gossip, mountains and rivers in the world, and the location of the territory? "

"It makes sense, let's talk about your thoughts."

Qian Sheng and Mr. Bai nodded together, expressing their agreement with him.

"I think that if we want to study the decorations on the Jiuding, we have to consider the historical background at that time.

At that time, the tripod was not only a ritual vessel and sacrificial utensil, but also a tool for recording history and inheriting culture.

If this attribute is taken into account, then the ornamentation on the Jiuding is likely to be composed of two parts.First, as recorded in "Zuo Zhuan", the state capitals in various places engraved the local customs, geographical environment and other elements on the tripod, and finally transported them to the capital of the Xia Dynasty, and then King Yu found craftsmen to transport Luo Information such as books, hexagram images, the territory of Kyushu, geography and hydrology, rare birds and animals, etc., are recorded on Jiuding one by one.

This completes the entire tripod decoration content. "

Lin Yi's idea is absolutely subversive and creative.

At least in the industry, no one has made such a guess, and no one has made similar remarks.

One of the main reasons is that Jiuding has been denied its inheritance as early as in the history circle, that is, it is already in a state of being lost.

Now, the research of the relevant departments only started from the mural of "King Zhou Mu sending the tripod" that Lin Yi and the others brought out from the tomb of Queen Jingjue.

Plus this "Qingzhou Ding" was discovered from the underground lake in the cave.

It can be said that the official information is not necessarily much more than Lin Yi and the others, and it is almost a stage of starting from scratch.

Lin Yi's idea may really be close to the truth.

"Lin Zi's analysis makes sense, but let's not forget that the Feng family also had a hand in this matter. The Feng family has been keen on collecting various rare ancient books in ancient tombs since ancient times. After Chongba changed their family's identity and gave them the title of Guanshan Taibao, it became even more serious.

There were rumors before that Chengzu wrote Xie Jin and Yao Guangxiao edited "Yongle Dadian", and the Feng family secretly helped a lot.

I think it won’t take long for the Feng family to get this little thing we have in hand. By then, if they are ahead of us, then all our efforts will have been wasted. "

Mr. Luo said earnestly.

"As per sir's wishes."

Mr. Luo raised his head and glanced at Mr. Bai beside him, and the two nodded to each other, which seemed to be an exchange of opinions.

"Before you came back, I discussed with Old Baitou that our apprenticeship ceremony will be postponed for a while. You guys can strike while the iron is hot and go to the southwest. We can't make anything behind closed doors.

When I asked about the hexagrams this morning, I found out the hexagram image of "Water and Sky Needs", Qiangzi, tell me, what is the word for this hexagram? "

Wang Qiang was suddenly called by Mr. Luo, and he stood up from the chair all of a sudden, as if he had been electrocuted.

He looked at a loss, like a scumbag who was suddenly called up by the teacher to answer a question.

"Then what, 'Shui Tian Xiu' is in hexagram 64."

Muttering in his mouth, his head looked at the sky, and his fingers were still pinching the numbers one by one.

"Fifth, yes, the fifth hexagram, the text of the hexagram is: keep upright and wait, it belongs to the upper middle hexagram image, and the hexagram word is .gua word"

When Wang Qiang was trying to remember, Mr. Luo had already scratched his hands, got up and walked to him.

"Tell me, there are 28 words in total. If you say one word correctly, you will save yourself a slap in the face."

"Then sir, you'd better smoke."

Wang Qiang stretched out his palm with a bitter face, Mr. Luo was not polite, he smoked more than twenty times in a row, only Wang Qiang grinned and his face was flushed.

"The pearl has been buried in the earth for a long time, and it has no light and no light until now. Suddenly, the strong wind blows the earth away, and it will naturally appear again.

There is a chance, but we need to find the right time to start as soon as possible, so as to have a chance to see the sun, so this matter should be done sooner rather than later, you should prepare well in these two days.

Qiangzi, let me talk about this, if you still can't memorize the 64 hexagrams before you leave, don't go this time, and watch the house with us two old men. "
