A Magical Scene
In the evening,
"Master, I'm here to see you!"
In Niu Gensheng's courtyard house, Zhang Zhengren had just entered the courtyard. He was holding Erguotou and cooked food in his left hand and a box containing antiques in his right hand. He shouted at the top of his lungs.
After parting ways with Han Chunming and returning home, Zhang Zheng remembered what he had promised his master last night, so he obediently brought the antiques to see him.
"Yo, Masako is here!"
Niu Defu lifted the curtain and saw that it was a familiar face, so he quickly went up to greet him.
"Uncle Bull, when did you come back?”
Niu Defu, the eldest son of Master Niu, was also the conductor of his train station. Zhang Zheng was naturally very familiar with him.
"You just came back. You're looking for the old man.”
"Alright, go ahead, Uncle Bull.”
After saying that, Zhang Zheng entered the door with ease and saw Niu Gensheng in the study at a glance.
He was holding a magnifying glass in his hand and was carefully admiring a chest of drawers, as if he had not heard Zhang Zheng enter.
"Master, don't look at your precious chest of drawers. You can't get tired of looking at it every day. Your disciple happened to pick up something today, come and take a look.”
Zhang Zheng put down the things he was carrying and walked to Lord Bull with the antique box.
"Oh, let me take a look. What good treasure did you find this time?”
Hearing that there was a new treasure, Lord Bull's interest was piqued and he straightened his body.
Zhang Zheng chuckled, then opened the antique box and took out the Qilin Golden Star Inkstone.
"Look, this is a good treasure. It must be your first time seeing it.”
"Heh, you sure have big words.”When Lord Bull heard this, a smile appeared on his face." Come, let me have a look!"”
When he took the inkstone and observed it for a while, he revealed an excited expression.
"This must be the Golden Star Inkstone. It's a good thing. Su Shi, the great writer of the Northern Song Dynasty, once said in a letter,'The inkstone is as smooth as lacquer, as warm as jade, covered with golden stars, like soybeans, as fine as ink, and it makes a sound when you knock it. It's a top-grade inkstone.
He's talking about the Golden Star Inkstone!"
Lord Bull glanced at it and saw through the inkstone's origin. He even told the story behind it, and his face was filled with love.
Zhang Zheng gave him a thumbs up." Master, you have good eyesight!”
Lord Bull waved his hand, obviously not taking his flattery seriously. After a few seconds, he spoke again,
"Masako, bring me the set of tools I use to identify antiques.”
Master Bull's performance was within Zhang Zheng's expectations. He guessed that when the old man saw the bottom line later, his performance might be even more exaggerated.
Seeing his master's serious expression, Zhang Zheng did not dare to delay and quickly took the old man's special tools over.
He put on his gloves and took out several magnifying glasses of different levels from his toolbox. Niu Gensheng surrounded the inkstone and observed it bit by bit.
When the old man turned the inkstone over and saw the signature at the bottom, his expression instantly became solemn.
After thinking for a few seconds, the old man seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes lit up.
Then, the old man slowly poured a drop of water into the inkstone, took out an ink stick from his desk, and began to grind the ink on the inkstone.
The study became very quiet, leaving only the rustling sound of Lord Niu grinding ink on the inkstone.
As time passed, Zhang Zheng's gaze was involuntarily attracted by the scene above the inkstone.
At this moment, Niu Defu walked in from outside the door. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly saw an unforgettable scene.
"What, what is this?"
Niu Defu's mouth was wide open, and his eyes were wide open. His eyeballs were about to pop out, and his face was filled with disbelief.
A thick white mist slowly rose from the inkstone, like the clouds in the sky.
Within the mist, a Qilin could be seen dancing and dancing. It looked very mystical when it was adorned with the golden stars on the inkstone.
Lord Bull continued to grind the ink. The Qilin and the mist became thicker and thicker, giving people a very realistic illusion.
Niu Defu rubbed his eyes and pinched his own arm. Finally, he was sure that the scene in front of him was not an illusion.
Even Zhang Zheng was shocked. Although he knew that this Qilin Golden Star Inkstone was extremely precious, he really did not know that the inkstone had such a function.
However, the truth was right in front of him. He had no choice but to believe it.
The Qilin and the mist lasted for more than a minute before they slowly dissipated. Lord Bull's movements of grinding ink also stopped.
"Master, what's going on?”
Zhang Zheng recovered from his shock. Seeing that the magical scene no longer existed, he quickly went forward and asked.
Although Niu Defu didn't say anything, the probing look in his eyes was obvious.
Lord Bull glanced at Zhang Zheng and said indifferently,
"I told you to read more books, but you just didn't listen. It's just that you're lucky. Otherwise, you wouldn't know that there's a treasure mountain.”
"Master, we can talk about this later. Tell me about this inkstone first.”
Zhang Zheng was shocked by the scene just now and had an anxious expression.
"Yes, Dad, you've been kept in suspense. Tell us about it.”Niu Defu echoed from the side.
It was obvious that he was also shocked by the strange scene just now, and the curiosity in his heart had reached its peak.
