It¡¯s not easy for everyone. It¡¯s only a few cents, and it only costs a pack of cigarettes to co-write. Thank you, okay? ¡ª¡ª It was not anyone else who entered the door, but Bi Jiahao and Xiao Ma live next door. . They also got the news from Bi Yue and heard that Wang Ding had obtained the treasure. "Brother Wang Ding, I heard that you went out and made something nice and came back? Why didn't you tell me to go with you" When Wang Ding was looking at the tooth carving with all his concentration, Bi Jiahao's voice suddenly sounded in his ears, Looking up, he found that Bi Jiahao and Xiao Ma had entered the house at some point. "I thought you were resting. We're going to participate in the auction tomorrow, so I didn't bother you And it was Bi Yue who asked me to go out. There are two of us. Don't you want us to walk more?" Wang Ding Humor As soon as he said that, Bi Jiahao had no reason to say anything about Wang Ding. "What kind of treasure did you miss?" "It's nothing, just a tooth sculpture." Wang Ding smiled bitterly. "Ivory carving." Xiao Ma came around first and looked at it. "Good stuff, really good stuff. Such a large ivory Buddha sculpture is really rare. And judging from the shape and dentition, it should be from the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Boss Wang, you are not a small person" Ma is also very knowledgeable about antiques. When he spoke, Bi Jiahao also seemed very excited. He didn't know where he got the magnifying glass from. Bi Jiahao pushed the magnifying glass and looked around the tooth carving for a long time. At the same time, Bi Jiahao looked at the Wang Ding with his eyes. This Wang Ding was simply magical. He could encounter interesting things wherever he went. This tooth carving was obviously an old item in China, but he could actually find it in Myanmar. And he can be so good at gambling on stones. This guy is simply the best. As soon as he rolled his eyes, Bi Jiahao actually wanted Wang Ding to sell this object to him. Seven or eight million was nothing to Bi Jiahao, but Bi Jiahao also knew that Wang Ding would not give such a good thing to him. So after looking at it for a few more times and seeing that Wang Ding's eyes remained firm and unchanging, Bi Jiahao also gave up his plan to buy this top-quality tooth sculpture from Wang Ding. "It's a good thing, so you have to keep it well. Although this hotel has good security, I still recommend that you put it in the hotel's safe." "Well, I understand, but I want to take a look first. Thank you, Brother Bi, for the tooth carving. " "Well, it's okay. You can continue looking. Xiaoma and I are just here to take a look, so let's go first." Bi Jiahao just came over to take a look at what Wang Ding missed. When he saw it, he knew that Wang Ding would not change hands, so he had no intention of staying. He told Wang Ding to have a good rest and prepare for the public sale tomorrow. Wang Ding said, "Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay." He also sent the two people out of the room, closed the door, and returned to the tooth sculpture. Wang Ding looked at it again. The mysterious figure in the tooth sculpture The wax pill made him really itchy. If he doesn¡¯t take it out and look at the paper ball today, Wang Ding won¡¯t be able to rest well. "Brother Wang Ding, it doesn't look like this place is for everyone, otherwise it wouldn't have such rules, right?" In fact, just now I saw Wang Ding looking at the armpits of the tooth sculpture figures, Qian Le also discovered the secret, but just now Bi Jiahao and Xiao Qian Lecai didn't say anything when the horse came. Qian Le discovered the repaired area. Although the traces of repair were very faint, Qian Le could still see that the shape did not seem to be caused by a bump. "Huh? Did you see it too? This really doesn't look like a crack, but rather something dug out. It's a bit like a small door deliberately opened. Ancient people often liked to hide treasures in the bellies of Buddha statues. Do you think there might be something inside? " Wang Ding glanced at Qian Le and deliberately used words to guide him. Wang Ding didn't want to take out the things inside without telling Qian Le, so he had to have a suitable reason. " Brother Wang Ding, are you kidding me" Qian Le didn't really believe it. What kind of treasure could he hide in the belly of the Buddha statue? "A joke? Everything I said is true. Haven't you heard of it?" Wang Ding said that ancient people often liked to hide treasures in the bellies of worshiped Buddha statues. This was not nonsense. There are also allusions in history. In Chinese history, during the Han Dynasty, after Buddhism was introduced from India to China, by the Sui, Tang and Five Dynasties of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, its development reached its peak of prosperity. The level of Buddhism surpassed that of India, and China replaced India as the center of world Buddhism. At that time, the status of Buddhists was quite high. Almost all temples owned large amounts of land and did not have to pay taxes.During that period, although there were many eminent monks like Xuanzang and Jianzhen, there were even more scum in Buddhism. There were countless cases of bullying men and women, and seizing people's houses and farmland. However, the emperor believed in Buddhism, and local officials Most of them turn a blind eye and don't ask questions at all. And those flower monks, after gathering a large amount of gold, silver and jewelry, in order to hide them, they used the name of Buddha Casting to bake and cast many large bronze Buddhas. It looked like a solid Buddha statue, but in fact, there was something hidden inside. The mystery is that the belly of the Buddha statue is all empty, and there is a huge amount of wealth collected by the monks hidden inside. So this is a lesson from history. It is also because of this that there were three of the most famous campaigns to exterminate Buddhism in Chinese history. These three exterminations of Buddhism happened exactly in the Northern and Southern Dynasties and the period of Tang Wuzong. This can not but be said to be an irony, especially during the period of Tang Wuzong, temples across the country Almost all of them were destroyed, and millions of monks and nuns were ordered to return to secular life, almost leading to the demise of Buddhism in China. Investigating the reason, the official view is that it was naturally caused by the political peculiarity of "theocracy is absolutely subordinate to the king's authority" inherent in Chinese society. The emperor felt that his authority was challenged by the illusory theocracy, so he wanted to destroy it. Buddha. This is a long way to go, but these histories and historical facts are enough to prove that treasures can be hidden in the bellies of Buddha statues. "Brother Wang Ding, so what you said is true? But there shouldn't be any treasures hidden in this Buddha statue, because it's so small" Qian Le listened to the story Wang Ding told with great interest, but he gestured I looked at the repaired place, but I didn't believe there was anything hidden in it. "Who knows if there is one? We have to take out the piece of ivory filled in to find out" Wang Ding followed Qian Le's words. He just wanted to take out the contents without damaging the Buddha sculpture, but it was not easy. , because the silicone used for repair has been completely integrated with the ivory, and it is very difficult to pull it out. Qian Le couldn't help laughing when he saw Wang Ding's sad face and said, "Brother Wang Ding, do you really want to take out the repaired ivory? I have a way." "Of course, think about it, this It's such a good Buddha sculpture. Who would have the time to dig a hole through it? Maybe there's something good inside. We won't suffer any loss if we dig it out and take a look. I'll find someone to repair it again. The workmanship will definitely be better than this one. ¡¡± Wang Ding is telling the truth. The use of silicone to repair this thing has indeed ruined this ivory Buddha statue. There are many materials in modern times that can repair it in such a way that no one can tell that it has been repaired. "Okay, Brother Wang Ding, if you want to get rid of me, I have a trick. Just wait for me for a while and I'll be back soon" Qian Le gestured at the repaired area, said something to Wang Ding, and walked out of the room. . "This kid" Wang Ding shook his head and looked at this thing with some distress. The thing was not his own before, so he was not particularly anxious. Now that the thing is in front of his eyes, he can't take it out. Wang Ding is very worried. When Qian Le was looking for something, Wang Ding also tried to use his own power to identify the paper balls there, but the paper balls were crumpled together. Although Wang Ding's current power was very powerful, he could not spread the paper balls first. Open it, and then read the words above. If your own power can move objects, or maybebut there is still another difficulty. The space here is too small, so it is probably impossible to operate. How sad! "Brother Wang Ding, I'm back" About twenty minutes later, when Wang Ding was still frowning, Qian Le walked into the room. Wang Ding's eyes suddenly lit up when he saw that he was holding an alcohol stove in his right hand. . "Qian Le, do you want to heat the needle red to melt away the silicone filling? But we don't know how deep the dug out ivory is" Wang Ding I thought this was a good idea at first, but when I thought about it, I realized that the ivory block filled in was six or seven centimeters long. An ordinary needle could not penetrate it at all, but a very long needle was too long. It's too thick to be inserted in, so this method is still not advisable. "Is this long enough?" Qian Le raised his left hand, and Wang Ding discovered that Qian Le's two fingers on his left hand were holding an extremely thin steel wire, which was twenty or thirty centimeters long. Wang Ding I flicked the steel wire with my hand and found that the toughness was excellent. I couldn't help but feel happy. All the problems were solved now. "This is a wire shop! Good boy, you do things well. If you do this, there is a treasure in it. Count you" Wang Ding took out the lighter from his pocket and lit the alcohol stove, while Qian Le took out the thin steel wire. Put one end on the fire core and bake itWhen it was baked, the thing itself conducted heat, but within ten seconds, a section of the steel wire was still burning red. Wang Ding looked at the steel wire in Qian Le's hand and reminded him: "The length is probably not enough. If you burn it redder, it will melt faster" The steel wire in Qian Le's hand began to swim on the flames. After getting up, not long after, the three to five centimeters at the front end of the steel wire were burned red. Qian Le walked down again, and now the red-hot distance was farther. "Give it to me quickly" Of course Wang Ding had to hold the knife himself and had the ability to see through. Wang Ding would not burn or destroy the paper ball. He placed the ivory sculpture horizontally on the ground and reached out to take it from Qian Le's hand. Pass the steel wire and insert it into the silicone gap in the repaired area. The red-hot steel wire melts the silicone inside like a knife cutting tofu without using any force at all. Along with an unpleasant smell of burnt rubber, a wisp of green smoke came out from Wang Ding's hand. Wang Ding slid the steel wire along the gap and moved it to one side. He knew that the hand felt very raw, as if the heat was not enough. At this time, Wang Ding quickly pulled out the steel wire. At this time, a layer of gelatinous substance was attached to the steel wire. "Keep burningbe careful not to damage the inside." Wang Ding handed the steel wire to Qian Le, stood up and opened the window of the hotel room. He didn't care that the air conditioner was still on in the room. This burning The smell of rubber is really unpleasant. This steel wire conducts heat quickly, but it also dissipates heat very quickly. Basically, once it burns red, it can only dissolve into two or three centimeters of silica gel. Wang Ding and Qian Le were busy for more than two hours before they could get rid of the piece of ivory. The fused silicone melted away. At this time, Qian Le took out a knife that looked like a wolf's tooth and pried off the piece of ivory that was inserted as a filling. The blade of the knife is extremely thin and can be inserted to a depth of about one centimeter. As Qian Le flips his wrist, the piece of ivory protrudes upward little by little, and finally plays a role between the blade and the ivory wall. Under the principle of leverage, there was a clear "snap" sound, and the small piece of ivory was picked out, and a circular hole of three to four centimeters square was exposed under the armpit of the ivory carving. "Brother Wang Ding, is there nothing in here?" Naturally, he couldn't put his hand in. Qian Le picked up the tooth sculpture and shook the small hole downward, but nothing came out. Wang Ding did not answer, but took the burnt black steel wire and went to the bathroom to clean it. After drying it, he twisted a section of the wire into a hook shape, and then said to Qian Le: "You put it Raise it a little higher and point the hole downward. I'll use this thing to dig it out and see" Wang Ding naturally knows if there is anything inside, and he also knows that the reason why the wax pill was not poured out by Qian Le is because just now When the silica gel was dissolved, some silica gel dripped onto the wax pellets. Although the wax pellets did not melt, they were stuck to the abdominal wall It takes a while for the silica gel to cool. Wang Ding used the thin steel wire to thread the holes in the silica gel. After stirring it up for a while, two spherical wax pellets the size of eyeballs rolled out from inside. "Is there really something?!" Qian Le kept staring at it with his head sideways. When he saw Wang Dingzhen tinkering with something from inside, he was so surprised that he almost threw out the ivory Buddha statue in his hand. "Brother Wang Ding, what is this?" Carefully placing the tooth carving on the ground, Qian Le approached Wang Ding and looked carefully at the two wax pills that Wang Ding took off in his left hand, with a puzzled look on his face. This wax pill is not made very well. There are cracks everywhere on the white wax skin. It looks a bit like it was burned with ordinary candles at home, kneaded into a ball, and then air-dried. From there, you can faintly see the cracks. to the paper ball inside. "If you ask me, I don't know what this is. Just pinch it and take a look" Wang Ding said, feeling excited. The answer to the mystery was in his hand. Wang Ding felt a little excited. He took a deep breath, pinched a wax pill with his right thumb and index finger, and with a little force, the wax pill broke open, and white dry wax poured out. It fell to the ground, but what remained in Wang Ding's hand was a rolled-up paper ball that was slightly yellow in color after being folded several times. This is the paper ball! "Is it a paper ball?" Qian Le was a little disappointed. He thought there were two golden beans or diamonds hidden here, but he didn't expect that it was just a paper ball. "Let me take a look at this." Qian Le crushed the other wax pill. Just when he was about to open the paper ball in a hurry, Wang Ding stopped him, "Don't worry, I put this paper ball here, maybe it is what it is, whether there are any harmful substances on it, or I can't touch it. Wear gloves first!" Wang Ding calmly took out a pair of white gloves from the suitcase he brought and put them on his hands. He couldn't be nervous at this time. Then Wang Ding took out a magnifying glass. Wang Ding felt something in his heart. It feels like there is a big secret hidden in these two paper balls. After being prepared, Wang Ding carefully folded a piece of paper under the attention of Qian Le's curious eyes. The paper didn't seem to be very good. It seemed a little fragile because of the time. If you are not careful, it will break. Although it looked very small after being folded into a ball, when Wang Ding spread it out on the table, it was as big as a magazine page. Wang Ding also recognized it as a map without the need for a magnifying glass. , mountains, rivers, terrains, and railways and roads are all drawn in great detail, but in some markings, "Ô»ÎÄ" is used. What kind of bird song is this? Although Wang Ding didn't understand Japanese, the Japanese language itself evolved from Chinese characters. Except for some altered characters, Wang Ding could see the rest, so Wang Ding probably recognized that it was Japanese. . The marked words seem to be place names in Myanmar. Qian Le was also a little surprised. After looking at it for a while, he said: "Brother Wang Ding, this is a drawing" "Nonsense, of course I know this is a drawing" Wang Ding was dumbfounded by Qian Le's words. , this drawing is so detailed that anyone can see it. "No, I mean this is a military drawing. It was drawn by the Japanese. It should have been in the 1940s of the last century" "Military drawing, for war?" Wang Ding naturally knew that Xiao Xiao The island country has launched many wars of aggression, and Myanmar has undoubtedly become the hinterland of the Japanese. Come to think of it, Qian Le is right. This is an introduction to the terrain of Myanmar, but it was definitely very important at the time. Confidential documents otherwise would not be hidden in this silica gel. "Ignore this for now, isn't there another one? Let's see what the other one is" (To be continued.)
