    Putting down the Tao Te Ching, Chen Yichao kept turning around. Most of them were printed copies from the Qing and Ming Dynasties. There were not many handwritten copies. At the same time, there were also some valuable ancient books from the Republic of China mixed in.

    Rare ancient books generally refer to ancient books that have been rigorously collated and have no typos or missing characters. The lower age limit is mostly determined before the 60th year of Qianlong. Those after the 60th year of Qianlong will depend on the value of the text.

    In the past, he had seen a lot of rare ancient books in antique cities in some cities, but ancient books from the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and other Ming dynasties were already rare and hard to see. Nowadays, most of the books sold by some regular antique dealers are from the Qing Dynasty or the Republic of China.  books.

    Not all ancient books can be called rare books. Before the advent of printing, most books were handwritten. The original manuscripts or other books were carefully written down, and after being checked against the original text, they became rare books.

    After the Tang Dynasty, engraving and printing appeared, and books began to have the concept of editions. The documents included in different editions of books, as well as the degree of collation, were different, so they were divided into full editions, incomplete editions, refined editions and inferior editions.

    The lower limit of the age of rare ancient books is the 60th year of Qianlong's reign. As for ancient books, they are generally from the late Qing Dynasty when the Opium War began. Before the war, China's history was counted as ancient history. After the war, China's feudal society was reduced to a semi-colony.  Semi-feudal society, so the history from then on is classified as modern history.

    But the age limit for both ancient books and rare books is very rough. Even in the Republic of China after the Revolution of 1911, if the content or printing form of the book follows the previous ancient books without reinventing the wheel, it can generally be classified as an ancient book.

    Of course, if it is a rare book, it depends on whether it has been reviewed by a celebrity or whether it is an ancient book with great academic research value.

    There are also some rules that can be followed when judging rare ancient books, namely the three properties and nine rules that are now commonly used.  The three properties are that books should have high historical relic properties, academic data properties and artistic representation. As for the nine items, most of them are some judgments on whether books of various generations can be classified as rare books. Generally, they require that they are rarely circulated or are very rare.  few.

    Most of the books in Taoist temples are various Taoist classics, except for the eight basic classics.  There are many important Taoist classics, such as the Heart Sutra, the Alchemy Sutra, the Anthology, and the Anthology. It can be said that there are many types.

    Chen Yi couldn't help but smile.  Not to mention the collection of books in other compartments, the ancient books in this compartment alone are enough for him to read for several years and he may not be able to understand the meaning.

    It was still early, so he decided to walk around in these compartments first, and then take some books back to read.

    After looking at the bookshelf in this compartment, most of them are printed books, including some handwritten books.  But the basic value is less than 100,000.

    Chen Yi walked out of this compartment and showed his token to the two Taoist priests guarding the entrance to the fifth compartment.

    He has also verified the information about these Taoist priests. Basically, every Taoist priest's Tai Chi health-preserving skills have reached the primary level of expertise, and most of them are in their thirties or forties. I am afraid that these Taoist priests have practiced more than just  Mianquan in Longmen Tai Chi.  There are also short punches that focus more on attack ability.

    With the guards of these Taoist priests, the safety of these ancient books can be guaranteed to the greatest extent. Based on Chen Yi's own estimation, if he fought against any Taoist priest here, he would probably not be able to hold on for a second before he fell down.

    This is not only a gap in physical fitness, but also a gap in attack skills.  If he fought, he would probably just pump his fist or kick his foot.

    Entering the fifth compartment, Chen Yi took a casual look.  He couldn't help but smile on his face. Most of the manuscripts here were from the Ming and Qing dynasties. After a casual look, he saw the "Huangdi Yinfu Jing" written by Chen Bangyan in running script.

    Speaking of Chen Bangyan, he is also a famous person. He was an orphan since he was a child and was raised by his uncle. However, he was a high school Jinshi. He eventually became the minister of the Ministry of Rites. He was good at calligraphy and cursive. The two kings were deeply impressed by Dong Qichang's penmanship. In his later years, he worked with Dong Qilin.  His calligraphy works can be compared to real ones, and his calligraphy is famous far and wide. Many people want to get his calligraphy as a family heirloom.

    Chen Yi smiled, looked at the calligraphy, and immediately used the copying technique. This Chen Bangyan is also a famous calligrapher, and it is also very beneficial to be able to understand some of the brushstrokes in his calligraphy.

    He is still in the learning stage of calligraphy now. When learning calligraphy in ancient times, he had to copy almost all the famous masters of the past dynasties before he could achieve success. Naturally, he would not just copy the works of one family.

    In an instant, looking at the manuscript in front of him, he couldn't help but have some insights in his heart, and his fingers couldn't help but draw in the void. When it comes to calligraphy works, what he felt was mostly just the techniques and brushstrokes in the works, not the meaning of the calligraphy.  There will be too many inner feelings of the author.

      After a long while, he slowly stopped and nodded with a smile. Chen Bangyan's calligraphy is indeed very strong. No wonder others want to get his calligraphy works as family heirlooms.

    The reason why a manuscript is more valuable than an ordinary engraved copy is simply because it is a carrier of calligraphy that contains the author's emotions. The calligraphy written by everyone is different. It can be said to be a unique thing. Traditional writing  The fonts are seal script, official script, running script, cursive script, and regular script, and the printed version uses a unified printing font, both Song Dynasty and imitation Song style.

    Traditional handwritten fonts such as running script and cursive script can be called calligraphy, while Song style is generally not classified as calligraphy.

    Slowly returning Chen Bangyan's manuscript to its original position, Chen Yi smiled. He and Chen Bangyan could be said to have the same surname, but he didn't know if he could reach his level of calligraphy.

    At the same time, he seemed to feel that maybe apart from listening to He Wenzhi explaining his wife's story, he would have to stay in the Xuanmiao Pavilion most of the time, because no matter which museum or cultural relics library it was, it was impossible for him to  Like now, I can read ancient and rare books at will in the book collection without any scruples.

    At this time, he couldn't help but feel that the pot of Tieguanyin he brewed before was really valuable. If he could really gain great insights from these many calligraphy, he would not hesitate to make tea for Taoist Master Wu Zhen every day.  .

    Seeing a copy of the Tao Te Ching that was the same as the one printed by the Imperial Household of Shunzhi in the Qing Dynasty, Chen Yi took it out with some confusion and flipped through the first page. He couldn't help but smile. No wonder this set of Tao Te Ching was placed in the fifth page.  in a compartment.

    On the first page were written several large characters imitating the Song Dynasty, and the preface to the Imperial Tao Te Ching, I heard that the Taoist is the first to heaven and earth, and then all things are sects Looking at the handwriting on this page, and appraising it, he couldn't help but sigh and smile. Compared with the previous ones,  The Neifu Engraved Edition only has one more page of words, and at the same time, there are five additional characters on the header of each page of the Imperial Commentary on the Tao Te Ching. However, based on these words, this set of two Neifu Engraved Editions is called  This is the Yuzhu Daoxing Jing, and its value is more than ten times higher than the previous Tao Te Ching, which was tens of thousands. It is worth between three and four hundred thousand.

    This is the nobility of the royal family. As long as something is stained with the royal name, its value is much higher than ordinary things.

    I briefly browsed the rare ancient books on the bookshelf in this compartment. Engraved books also accounted for a large number, but there were many more manuscripts than in the previous compartment, and there was a bookshelf with  They are not ordinary books, but volumes with stickers on them.

    This made him even more delighted. Those handwritten manuscripts may not be able to be used by calligraphers, but these rice paper stickers fully possess the original author's penmanship. However, this type of booklet composed of calligraphy stickers is very special.  Very few.

    Some collectors may be able to travel around and collect some collections, but as a Taoist temple cannot be moved, and all the Taoist priests are monks and require to live in the temple, it is naturally impossible to become a wandering Taoist priest. What the temple can collect  Most of them should be left by the sects that preached here before, and some were given by calligraphers and painters who came to the temple to enlighten themselves or enjoy the scenery.

    Chen Yi watched for a while, and decided to use the treasure search technique to find some valuable items, check them one by one, and then check to see if there are any precious books that Sanqing Guan has not discovered.

    He opened the identification system and looked at the item bar. There are still ten intermediate treasure search talismans left, so there is no need to worry about not finding the hidden treasures.

    It’s just that the intermediate treasure-searching talisman has more than the primary treasure-searching technique, not only the five hundred years of searching, but also the ability to find the treasures hidden in it.

    If you use the elementary treasure search technique, you may only find the most valuable items in the entire library five hundred years ago. However, if you use the intermediate treasure search charm, you can find hidden items in a certain item, not all items.  the most valuable thing in the world.

    Under the current situation, it is natural to use the treasure search technique to see what is the most valuable thing that exists within fifty meters nearby, five hundred years ago.

    After using the treasure hunting technique in the identification system, Chen Yi watched a golden light emerge from his body, then transformed into a golden treasure hunting rat and came to the ground. The treasure hunting rat sniffed around.  But he screamed happily twice, as if he was very happy to stay in this environment full of antiques.

    Seeing this scene, Chen Yi couldn't help but smile. It was indeed a treasure-hunting rat. Just like the old Taoist Master Wuzhen, one was addicted to tea and the other was addicted to treasures.

    Soon, the treasure-hunting rat seemed to have found its target, then waved to Chen Yi and jumped behind him.

    Chen Yi watched the treasure-hunting rat keep running forward without any intention of turning. He couldn't help but be worried. Within fifty meters of this place, there are five hundred meters from now.??, the most valuable things should not be placed in the two enclosed stone rooms at the back.

    Soon, the treasure hunter came out of the fifth compartment and headed towards the sixth compartment. Chen Yi took the sign and showed it to the Taoist priest guarding him. Then he pretended to be visiting and followed slowly.  Behind the Sou Bao Mouse.
