The most powerful god in the city

According to rumors, the emperor of the Southern Tang Dynasty often used Li Mo to reward meritorious heroes, and after Song Taizu, all emperors wrote edicts with Tingqi ink. Every year, Huizhou has to pay a tribute of 1,000 catties of ink to the imperial court. Due to the monopoly of the rulers, it was difficult to buy the ink made by the Li father and son in the market, and during the Xuanhe period, there was a strange shortage of "gold can be obtained, but the ink of the Li family is not available".

During the Qingli period, a piece of Tingqi ink was sold for 10,000 yuan. Later, Shezhou was renamed Huizhou, and Li Tingqi was praised by later generations as the founder of Huimo.

Legend has it that Li Tingqi made ink, the materials used are very particular, to pine smoke, pearls, jade shavings, borneol, and raw lacquer, deer horn glue, rhino horn, musk and other precious items, pounded 100,000 times, before making molding. Therefore, Li Mo is as hard as a stone, rich and greasy, shiny as lacquer, and can even be used as a knife to cut wood and paper.

The existing Li Mo is the "Hanlin Fengyue" collected by the Palace Museum on the treasure island

And the only one!

"Who is this Li Yanqi, so powerful." Zhang Tianyi was shocked.

Never heard the name 803.

"Li Yanjue, a famous ink-making master in the Southern Tang Dynasty, formerly known as Xi Yangui, made excellent ink, won the appreciation of Li Yu, the queen of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and served as an ink official, gave the country a surname, and changed his name to Li Yanjue"

"So that's the case", Zhang Tianyi nodded.

"Judging from this ink, whether it is the weight, texture, smell, pattern, and text, it is the same as the record about Li Mo in the book, but can I try it", Li Mo is hard to find, even Li Yang has some itchy hands.

Want to give it a try.

"How to try?" Zhou Ye asked.

"As I just said, Li Mo is as hard as a stone, rich and greasy, luster as lacquer, can be used as a knife to make, cut wood and cut paper, this is the most accurate way to identify Li Mo, but this piece of Li Mo is too precious, so it is not advisable, the second method needs to be grinded, because Yan Gui ink is very durable, writing with very little ink, Song Dynasty calligrapher, writer Xu Xuan, when he was a child, he got a spindle of Li Mo, about a foot long, very cherished. He shared this ink with his brother and wrote at least 5,000 words a day, but it took him ten years to run out.

But we don't have calligraphy and painting here, and the ink will be a big waste, so if you really want to verify, it's best to find a calligraphy or painting master, and then use the research to create, which will be more reasonable, and the lesser of two evils. Whether it is grinding and writing, or used to cut paper and wood, it is easy to hurt the ink ingot itself, and now the first two methods are not good, and the third can only be used, blisters.

Li Mo itself has a great characteristic, the quality is precious, according to records, there was a nobleman accidentally dropped a piece of Li Mo into the pool, at that time thought that the ink would be bad when it met the blister, this did not fish it out. After more than a month, when he was drinking by the pool, he dropped a gold object into the pool, and then he sent someone to go into the water to find it, and when he groped in the pool water, he not only touched the gold object, but also touched the ingot Li Mo. I saw that the light color of the ingot Li Mo had not changed after the blister, and it was new. Legend has it that some ink does not deteriorate after being soaked in water for three years. But we don't need to identify it for such a long time (ccdg), three is fine" Zhong Lao stretched out three fingers, "Later, people regarded this method as the most practical way to identify Li Mo, which did not damage Li Mo himself, but also knew the truth and falsehood."

Zhou Ye somewhat understood why the red ink clay and gold paint had fallen off.

Here's why.

"Oh my God, bring a basin of water"

"Got it, husband", Zhang Tianyi brought out a basin of water from the side.

Li Yang slowly put Li Mo into the water, only to see that the clear water rippled for a while and then regained his calm, without any change.

"As I said earlier, the ink here fades, indicating that it is often soaked in water, and the ink is fine, but this ink is different, when it encounters water, it will fade, and this ink is different, the real Li ink texture is very hard and fine, like jade, and it will not melt in the water."

"I didn't expect the knowledge in this to be so big", Zhang Tianxiao secretly said.

"Let's let it stay in the water first, and we'll look at what's down there." It would take some time for the experiment, so several people turned their attention to three other antiques.

Zhou Ye stepped forward and picked up the second item.

Although Zhou Ye didn't see it, he already knew what this thing was by touching the shape.

The cloth was lifted, and a plate appeared in front of the people.

The plate is very beautiful, the plate is folded along the edge, the diamond fancy mouth, the center of the plate is flat, and the circle is foot. The whole body is glazed with green and white, and the bottom is unglazed. The inside and outside of the plate are painted with blue and white patterns. Fold along the painting curly grass pattern, the inner wall blue and white reticulation on the ground highlights the white entwined peony pattern, the edge of the center of the plate is surrounded by the curly grass pattern, the central blue and white ground sets off a dragon and a phoenix, the space is lined with white lotus and cloud patterns, the outer wall of the plate is painted with a tangled branch lotus pattern, the whole plate body is simple and atmospheric, the porcelain blue and white hair color is pure, and the composition is rigorous.

The inner diameter of the plate is about 20 centimeters, and the outer diameter is about 25 centimeters, which belongs to the large plate.

According to the information coming from the eyes, this belongs to Yuan Qinghua.

And it is a large plate of blue and white yuan, which is very precious. _
