Chapter 29 Poison Jade

"Haha, Master Zhang is really taking money and eliminating disasters." Qin Ge smiled, "Unless you promise to help me, please return the money to the Wang family and then pick the name of Maoshan. Without me, you will never know the secret of this jade in your life."

Qin Ge's move is too powerful. Refunding money is a trivial matter. Picking the name of Maoshan is not a joke. Maoshan Sect emphasizes the word "trust". The successor of Maoshan, a senior, will either not accept things that he is unsure of, or he will sacrifice his life to complete the task. There has never been a precedent for refunding money. Hong Kong is a prosperous place for Taoism. If this matter is spread, I am afraid that Ma Zhenren will not be in peace in the dark.

"Okay, I promise you." A stream of passion rushed into Zhang Guozhong's head at this moment, and he didn't keep kicking himself in the leg without Gu Lao Liu's head.

"Okay! Just a word is determined!" Qin Ge laughed loudly, turned around and stared at Old Liu with a smile.

"Well! There should be star anise rice in your life. If you travel all over the world, you can say it!"

Qin Ge picked up the jade burlap in Zhang Guozhong's hand: "This is a piece of poisonous jade."

Zhang Guozhong frowned at this moment. He had heard of Poison Jade, but had never seen it before. In his opinion, Poison Jade should be similar to Dead Jade, and it should be a jade seed of poor quality, so when he got this piece of jade, he didn't think about it.

According to legend, Wei State dug out a piece of poisonous jade during the Warring States Period, but no one knows what happened later. There is such a strange phenomenon in the world. The more beautiful the insects are, the more toxic it is, the more fancy the mushrooms are. After eating them, they are the same. The same is true for this poisonous jade. Just looking at the appearance, it is definitely a peerless jade, but it has unknown strange power. In modern science, jade has radiation, and this poisonous jade is also likely to have many radioactive elements reaching a specific proportion, which can release radiation that is different from other jades.

"I used to have a piece of poisonous jade," Qin Ge fiddled with the jade turtle. "In the United States, it has measured the radioactive intensity by more than ten times that of ordinary jade, and it can emit a weak pulse. Other jades do not have this characteristic, especially pulses. I have also consulted several friends in the spiritual community, who believe that the characteristic of poisonous jade may affect people and ghosts around them at the same time."

"Then why did this piece of jade return to the Wang family by itself?" Zhang Guozhong frowned.

"You have to answer this question yourself. I have no research on paranormal phenomena." Qin Ge thought for a while, "But I tell you that this piece of jade is one of the treasures that have suppressed the treasures of the Later Jin Dynasty. Back then, a group of tomb robbers dug up a secret room with the stone platform of the town's treasures as an ancient tomb and sold the jade to a missionary. This piece of jade flowed into Britain during the Opium War, and a large-scale auction was held at that time."

"How did you know these?" Zhang Guozhong was puzzled.

"Do you know this Mr. Sun Qilin?" Qin Ge handed over his business card again, "His grandfather was the auctioneer at that time, and he heard from him about the things like poisonous jade. He described this piece of jade to me, but I didn't expect to see it at Wang Zhongjian's house." Qin Ge took a sip of water, and probably said one-third of his life's words on this day.

"At that time, the person who bought this jade made up a huge lie, saying that it was the Heshi Bi of China, so he specially found a Chinese master to shoot it to set off the atmosphere. Later, the person who bought this jade became a haunted house, dead and crazy. The jade also suffered several defeats. In the end, it was said that it was bought by the first mate on a freighter for 20 pounds, but nothing happened in his house. Unexpectedly, after decades, Wang Zhongjian bought it again. I wanted to warn him, but at that time I could not be 100% sure that this was the poisonous jade, so I didn't want to destroy Wang Zhongjian's elegance."

"What do you mean..." Zhang Guozhong thought for a while, "Put this piece of jade back to the temple of Houjin's treasure?"

"You can teach me!" Qin Ge smiled. Since Zhang Guozhong and Lao Liutou promised him to help destroy the treasure of the Later Jin Dynasty, they obviously spoke much more than before.

"Then he wants to come back by himself?"

"It shouldn't be. This jade has been there for thousands of years. I guess there must be a special way to keep him there. If you can learn that method on site, it is not impossible to bring this jade home by yourself."

"Not necessarily?" Old Liu also spoke at this time. "Mr. Qin, look here..."

Old Liu took the jade and pointed it at the mud mark on the edge.

"You..." Qin Ge took the jade, found the magnifying glass and looked carefully, frowned.

"Mr. Qin, you are known as an expert in ancient jade. Have you never heard of something like jade turtle?" Old Liu asked listlessly.

"Jade Bottle?" Qin Ge was full of suspicion and took the jade to the window, looked at it again and again in the sunlight. "Gao Ming..." Qin Ge murmured. The jade was an irregular round square shape, similar in size to a cigarette box, but it was only one-third of the thicker than the cigarette box. It was obviously a whole piece of jade before, and then made into a jade box.

The so-called jade burlap means that a very thin gap is made on the side of the whole piece of jade, then grind it into the inside of the jade with special tools, and carve a thin layer of pictures or characters on the inside of the jade under invisible conditions, then fill it back with jade powder, and finally seal it with special materials. On the surface, this is still a piece of jade, and the gap on the side may be ignored into mud stains that have been used for a long time. This unique skill began in the Spring and Autumn Period and was said to be unique in the late Tang Dynasty.

“What is written here?”

"You have to answer this question yourself. We have not studied ancient jade artifacts!" Old Liu vowed to fight Qin Ge to the death.

The reason why even Qin Ge didn't realize that this piece of jade was actually a jade skull is because this thing was so unpopular. According to the Maoshan Scholars, the first jade skull in China appeared in the Warring States Period. It originally existed as a form of a handicraft. By the end of the Han Dynasty, it gradually evolved into a way to convey secret information (not all jade skulls were made of peerless jade, and most of the jade that conveyed intelligence was a common miscellaneous jade. Ancient people were used to hanging jade on their bodies, just as normal as modern people carried watches. Under the concealment of this custom, most military intelligence could be safely spread by using jade skulls, and some jade skulls could even be made into a copper coin.

Among the large jade, a map can even be drawn in the place with the big fingernails). Since each jade slab is made of confidential military intelligence, a "school craftsman" will be secretly executed after a period of use. Later, some people who mastered "school craftsman" were forced to hide their names. Until the prosperous Tang Dynasty, this skill reappeared again. The Tang Dynasty palace was impressed by this long-lost skill, so it adopted this skill as the imperial use of the court. With the favorable treatment of the court, these craftsmen began to pass on this secret skill to their descendants, and passed on men but not women to avoid outsiders from robbing their jobs. This eventually led to the loss of this unique skill.

In the Tang Dynasty, when the "storm technique" was sought after by the nobles, the Maoshan Sect masters once invented the "soul-induced method" with jade skulls as the carrier in combination with the slaughter of the ancestors of the Pavilion. In rural China, children often lose their senses and lose their souls without experiencing any external blows, but their pulse and breathing are normal. At this time, the family members will think that the child has lost his soul. Generally, they can cure it by asking a witch to summon the soul, but some children also have to take a witch to summon the soul.

For example, the descendants of high-ranking officials and nobles often lose their souls because they are weak and often lose their souls. Therefore, adults wear jade skulls for their children to prevent the occurrence of souls from happening until the children grow up. Of course, most of the people who can enjoy this treatment are the nobles in the court, and ordinary people cannot afford that thing.)”, which is described in detail in the secret book "Zhongge Mantra" and "Maoshan Tuzhi" of the Zhongge Sect. This is why Lao Liu recognized this as a jade skull.

In the late Tang Dynasty, this method was used in burial, sacrifice, etc., and even in tombs and formations. Some experts even directly made dead jade into jade slabs, carved vanishing or spells into it, and sealed evil ghosts and animals. When they first learned that this was a jade slab, Zhang Guozhong also had the idea of ​​cutting the jade open to see what it was, but for safety reasons, Lao Liu still did not do this, because Ma Zhenren seemed to have suffered the loss of vanishing literature and had repeatedly taught himself: in the late Tang Dynasty,

Most of the jade skulls are carved with slaughter or spells, but they are not good at plagues. Judging from the size of this jade and the vague slutty slut (also known as "如子" on the surface, the evil beast with human face and dragon body likes to eat people) patterns in ancient legends, it is definitely not for children to attract souls, so for safety reasons, Lao Liu still chose to observe. After learning that this was a piece of "poisonous jade", he was even more glad that he was not bewitched by Zhang Guozhong to cut the jade open, otherwise he might have attracted something difficult.

"Don't you know this is a jade turtle?" Zhang Guozhong said strangely. He thought Qin Ge, an ancient jade expert, could give him some answer.

"Can I see what's inside?" Qin Ge didn't care about his negligence, and wanted to cut the jade turban open.

"If I could see it, I would have seen it long ago. But if you want to see it, you can do it. When Guozhong and I return to the mainland, you will see it whatever you like..." Old Liu said contemptuously. At this moment, Qin Ge was also silent, staring at Old Liu and Zhang Guozhong for a while, "If I said that I could see it without destroying this jade?" At this moment, Zhang Guozhong and Old Liu were both stunned. Even if they opened their eyes, they could not see it. What could Qin Ge do?

The reality proves that the Chinese people who have been washed away by the * are indeed out of date. Qin Ge told Zhang Guozhong and Lao Liu that there are many advanced technologies now, and it is not impossible to see the internal situation without destroying the jade. Qin Ge believes that the most advanced acoustic scanning technology at that time (a professional perspective technology for hybrid ultrasonic imaging that can be used for stone perspective) may see the contents inside the jade.

After a while of silence, the three reached an agreement, Qin Ge brought Guyu to the United States to scan, while Zhang Guozhong and Lao Liutou returned to the mainland to prepare for the guy's ceremony. At this moment, Zhang Guozhong was still worried about the start of school. Qin Ge quickly signed the check, "Zhang, the ancients said, a real man is determined to be in all directions. If you like teaching, after we succeed, you can run a larger school by yourself." After that, he handed a check of 500,000 Hong Kong dollars to Zhang Guozhong, "I don't know how much money Wang Zhongjian gave you. I am not as rich as him, so I can only give you so much first...Zhang Zhang, you can resign temporarily. Even if we are not successful, I believe that in Hong Kong, you will be richer than me with your ability." Although you have never seen what kind of ability Zhang Guozhong has, Qin Ge still trusts the title of Zhang Guozhong.

"Mr. Qin, can we bring you, the ancient Jin Dynasty picture and this piece of silk ribbon, back and study it?" Zhang Guozhong took the check and said.

"sure……"
