The place she just wiped with a white cloth seems to be hotter than before...
Gu Mou repeatedly stroked the surface of this thing, but couldn't completely confirm that it wasn't just her own psychological effect, because this thing originally had a slightly different temperature when touched, and the change in temperature wasn't very big.
To better determine this, Gu Xiang first went to the bathroom to soak his hands in hot water, and then carefully massaged the black thing on his left hand again, seriously feeling every different place.
Then she chose the lowest tip of the C-shaped object, where she hadn't wiped with a white cloth yet. She carefully felt the heat and pleasant feeling and sound from the tip before wiping it gently but firmly with the white cloth.
She wiped it lightly for fear of having no effect, and heavily for fear of causing damage, so Gu Mei did it very carefully and cautiously.
After repeating the wiping motion for about five minutes, Gu Ming stopped her actions, removed the white cloth, took a deep breath, and then touched the bottom tip of the C-shaped object with her left hand again.
As soon as the left hand touched the tip, it instantly felt a heat conduction from the fingertips to the surface of the object, and her previous feeling was indeed not an illusion. This heat is really higher than before wiping, although not very obvious, if not paying attention, it's easy to be ignored, but it does exist!
Gu Mian's breathing quickened slightly, and her heart was pounding non-stop. She was certain that the original appearance of this thing wasn't this dull black ugly look that couldn't be made out clearly. If she could get rid of all the stuff on its surface, she would definitely be able to restore it to its original appearance.
Although the heat coming from her left hand was not extremely scorching, when Gu Mei touched it, she felt an uncontrollable excitement in her heart. She didn't know why she was excited, but she just was. In the past, whenever she had touched something, except for the golden silk wood which gave her an indescribable sense of comfort, other things mostly only brought her heat, joy and a magical sound.
This C-shaped object is still unknown, but just because it can make Gus feel different from others, I believe it's not an ordinary thing. [Cotton Candy]
Judging from Lin Hai's appearance, he obviously didn't think this was important either. Looking at the price he quoted, it seemed that he was more or less certain that this thing was an antique. He just didn't know what kind of antique it was, so he sold it to her for 1500 yuan.
Generally speaking, picking up leaks in front of experts is not an easy thing. I don't know what level Lin Hai is at, but he actually let this slip through.
But despite the doubts, Gu Mian was still very fortunate that this thing had flowed out of Lin Hai's hands. From Qin Sheng's words, among their people, Yang Lin was the most formidable, and the others were not too clear. If this thing had fallen into Yang Lin's hands, Gu Mian couldn't be sure whether Yang Lin would notice anything different or not.
Gu Mei happily took the C-shaped object from top to bottom, carefully wiping it with a white cloth for about two hours.
After wiping it clean and holding it in my hand, the feeling became even more pronounced. The heat I felt after touching it with my left hand was much higher than before. The joy that rose up in my heart also became clearer, and the voice that came from within me also became a few degrees clearer.
That sound is strange, like some kind of large animal's cry.
Originally, Gu Mei wanted to take the thing to Mr. Qiao's place and ask him about it, but when she looked up, it was already almost 11 o'clock, at this time Mr. Qiao had probably gone to sleep, and she didn't want to disturb others.
She had no choice but to hold back the excitement in her heart, carefully putting the C-shaped object aside, and then began to recall the existing discoveries of ancient artifacts. Was there anything that was similar to this large C shape?
As for the antique items in the shape of a large C, they do exist, as far as Gu Ming knows. There are quite a few jade pieces with this shape, mostly in the form of jade dragons and snakes.
She didn't think it was jade at first. Mainly because the thing really doesn't look like it, but now that I think about it, since the black stuff on its surface isn't its original appearance, maybe it's possible that it's a jade product.
Gu Xiang picked up the C-shaped object, held it up to the light and looked at it, but she didn't find anything.
The upper part of this large, c-shaped object has some protrusions, which should be carved, but it's just a few strokes, and with the black lacquer, it's not very clear. However, in the middle of the "c" shape, there is a small hole, and on the part above the small hole, there is another small protrusion. This protrusion is connected to the upper part of the large "c", looking like something on the head, maybe hair or something else.
Careful observation of the small hole reveals that it is larger on the outside and smaller on the inside, which should be a trace left by artificial drilling.
Wait!
Gu Meng quickly flipped the C-shaped object over and carefully observed the small hole in the middle.
The small hole that was presented on the outside just now is actually larger inside, and now she has turned it over and it still looks like the small hole is larger on the outside and smaller on the inside. The center of the small hole seems to be not very accurate, looking a bit like the mark of a step. This means that this hole was not drilled through at one time, but rather was drilled from both sides.
Gu Meng's mind quickly turned, in ancient times this kind of perforation technique was not common, the later people's craftsmanship became more and more sophisticated, plus the appearance of various tools, it was rare to see such a situation where both sides were drilled with holes, and the center did not match.
According to the time calculation, this kind of technical process should have appeared very early, at least with a history of several thousand years.
Gu Meng's mind flashed, and she quickly opened the laptop she had brought with her, connected to the wireless network, and started searching for something while holding a C-shaped object.
The more she looked down, the faster her heart beat, and the greater the uncertainty in her mind grew. She almost couldn't wait to rush over to Mr. Qiao and ask him to dispel her doubts.
After looking at it for a while, she quietly shut down the computer, put the C-shaped object back into the small box on the bedside table, and then put the box under her own pillow.
After washing up absent-mindedly, she lay down on the bed and started sleeping, but unfortunately, she didn't fall asleep for a long time. She was obviously very tired, her eyelids were about to droop, but her brain was exceptionally active, making it impossible for her to rest properly.
The next morning, Gu Mian rushed to Mr. Qiao's room with a pair of big panda eyes.
Mr. Qiao had also just gotten out of bed and was still a bit surprised to see Gu Mei at the door, thinking that she wouldn't come looking for him so early without a reason, he asked: "Little Gu, what's going on?"
"Mr. Qiao, I have something I'd like you to take a look at, do you have time?" Gu Mian looked at Mr. Qiao with expectation on her face.
Mr. Qiao glanced at Gu Ming's dark circles and nodded, stepping aside to let him in.
At this time, Mr. Qiao's neighbor, Qin Sheng, opened the door and saw Gu Mei standing at the entrance, and curiously asked: "What's wrong?"
"I have something to ask Mr. Qiao." Gu Ming thought for a moment, then said to Qin Sheng: "It's about that black thing I bought from Lin Hai's stall yesterday."
"That thing." Qin Sheng glanced at Gu Mian and asked tentatively, "Actually, I'm quite curious about it too. Can I hear more?"
Gu Mei thought that if the thing was really what she thought it was, then in order to take action, she would still have to rely on Qin Sheng. Now she was also tied to Qin Sheng's ship, and Qin Sheng had also said he would help her become Xue Lao's apprentice, so she agreed.
Mr. Qiao saw that Gu Mian had agreed to Qin Sheng's request and his gaze involuntarily swept around the two of them in a circle.
After entering Mr. Qiao's room, Gu Ming also didn't beat around the bush and directly took out the C-shaped object that he had carefully studied yesterday, gently placing it on the table in the room.
"I didn't notice what this thing was at first, I just thought it looked a bit strange and bought it because it caught my eye. Last night when I got back to my room, I took another close look and had some thoughts in mind, but wasn't quite sure, so I wanted to ask Mr. Qiao." Gu Mian looked at Mr. Qiao with a serious expression.
Mr. Qiao nodded and went forward to pick up the C-shaped object, examining it carefully while asking, "You studied it yesterday, what do you think this thing is?"
"I think it's very much like a jade piece from the Hongshan culture," replied Gu Ming.
"Are you saying it's jade?" Qin Sheng suddenly spoke up beside him.
That thing was bought with Gu Mian, at that time although it wasn't carefully examined in hand, but the thing is pitch black, looking like a rusty iron block, how could he have thought of it as jade?
Gu Xiang nodded: "Just looking at it, it doesn't seem like jade, but from various signs, I think it should be, only its surface has another layer of shell, making it hard to see clearly."
Mr. Qiao didn't care about what material the C-shaped object was made of, but instead looked at Gu Mian and asked: "Why do you think this is a Red Mountain cultural relic? There aren't many genuine Red Mountain cultural jade artifacts that have been unearthed and preserved, but there are a lot of fakes."
"I think so, it's what the thing itself tells me." Gu Ming took two steps forward and walked to Mr. Qiao's side, pointing at the small hole in the middle of the C-shaped object in Mr. Qiao's hand: "Mr. Qiao, take a closer look, this small hole presents an outwardly large and inwardly small honeycomb shape, which is a very important characteristic of Hongshan culture jade."
