Chapter 328

Zhou Zhong picked up the painting, pointed to the lines on the painting and said with a sneer: "you say that the painting style is very similar to Wu Daozi. I don't deny that the author of this painting really studied Wu Daozi thoroughly and imitated nine out of ten."

Wu Teng Xiaozuo disdains to sneer: "what is a thorough study, this is clearly Mr. Wu Daozi's painting!"

Mr. Zhou ignored Wu Teng Xiaozuo, touched the painting paper with his hand, felt the texture of the painting paper and said: "most of you are students from the Institute of archaeology. Naturally, the most basic and simplest way to identify ancient calligraphy and painting is to start with the texture of paper. I want to say that the old process of this painting is very perfect, so that people can hardly see that it was made only a year ago! ”

"ah? A year ago? "

"Wipe, a year ago that fart Wu Daozi, must be a fake ah!"

The students burst into an uproar at this.

"Zhou Zhong, you don't want to talk nonsense! How do you prove that the paper was made a year ago? "

"Because this paper is not Xuan paper at all!" Zhou said with a smile.

"What do you mean?" Many people are confused, especially the teachers and students who are not teachers and students of the Institute of Archaeology in the back, and they don't understand what's going on.

Zhou Zhong, holding the painting in his hand, said to the public: "as we all know, papermaking was invented in China, and among all the papers, Xuan paper is the most contact representative, known as the Millennium paper, the king of paper! Because Xuan paper has a long life, it will not rot if it is preserved for thousands of years. "

"Rice paper is as thin as cicada wings, and its texture is soft and tough. In the final analysis, the reason lies in the raw materials for making rice paper! Only the raw materials such as Green Sandalwood bark and rice straw in Jingxian County, Anhui Province, as well as the unique mountain stream and spring water in Jingxian County, can we produce real rice paper! In ancient times, Jing County was under the jurisdiction of Xuanzhou government, so everyone called it Xuan paper, which is the origin of the name of Xuan paper. Due to the limitation of the raw materials, only the rice paper produced in Jingxian county is the real rice paper, and the paper used in this painting is just a fake one! "

"Zhou Zhong, how do you know it's fake rice paper? You're talking nonsense!" Wuteng Xiaozuo asked angrily.

"Let's verify the material on the spot?" Zhou asked confidently.

Taketo's eyes twinkled, because they didn't verify the raw materials of the paper. They didn't think it was necessary. What they verified was that the paper had a thousand years of history. But on second thought, Zhou Zhong didn't verify it. He just took a look and determined the material of the paper? Maybe he's tough!

So Wuteng small left cold hum: "good, then on the spot to verify the material contained in this paper!"

Zhou Zhong saw that Wu Teng Xiaozuo agreed and turned to Professor Zhou and said, "Professor Zhou, please contact the chemistry related college there and ask them to come and make an identification."

As soon as Zhou Zhong's voice dropped, someone immediately stood up and said, "I graduated from chemistry and chemical engineering. I'll call my younger brothers and sisters and ask them to come over."

Zhou Zhong looks at Zeng Rou in his voice. He is surprised to see Zeng rou. Unexpectedly, Zeng Rou studies chemistry.

Zeng Rou immediately called the teacher of the college and borrowed simple testing equipment. Several junior students moved in more than ten minutes, and then followed Zeng Rou to do the identification.

Zeng Rou carefully cut a small piece from the lower right corner of the painting and put it on the instrument to start testing.

At the same time, a student from the College of chemistry and chemical engineering also took a piece of authentic Jingxian rice paper for testing.

Everyone stretched their necks and waited for the test results to come out, hoping to see if what Zhou Zhong said was true. The investigation group of the little devil was not good-looking. They had already discussed it. If there was no problem with the rice paper after it came out, they would never let Zhou Zhong pass. Jiangling university must expel Zhou Zhong! He became a street mouse and lost his reputation.

Professor Zhou went to Zhou Zhong and asked in a low voice that only two people could hear: "Zhou Zhong, are you sure?"

Professor Zhou was also worried. After all, Zhou Zhong didn't check the painting very much. How could he be sure that it wasn't Xuan paper?

Zhou Zhong gave Professor Zhou a reassuring look and said, "don't worry, it's absolutely no problem."

After about 20 minutes, Zeng Rou clapped her hands happily and said excitedly, "it's done! In the middle of the week, you come and have a look. "

Zhou Zhong Wen Yan walked past, Wuteng small left several people are also busy to follow up, afraid of Zhou Zhong to do something.

Zeng Rou saw the thoughts of Wu Teng's little left, so she took out the two test results and preached to everyone: "students, teachers, and the Japanese delegation. We have just identified two pieces of paper in front of your eyes. This one is cut from this painting, we call it a, and this one is cut from the authentic Jingxian Xuan paper we bought, we call it B. "

"The identification result is that the materials of a and B are totally different. We detected the components of Pterocarpus tatarinowii and Shatian straw in B, which are recorded in the school of biology of Jiangling University. There is no such two ingredients in a, so we come to the conclusion that paper a is not authentic Xuan paper made in Jingxian county. "The identification result is clear and clear. Everyone can see it clearly. Even if the little devil wants to refute it, there is no way to refute it.

Zhou Zhong made a final conclusion with a smile: "the result is obvious. Since the Tang Dynasty, Xuan paper in China has only been made in Xuanfu, and can only be made in Xuanfu. And this so-called "Wu Daozi" masterpiece is not made of Xuan paper, so is it true or false? "

"Well, who can be sure that Xuanfu was the only place to make Xuan paper in the Tang Dynasty? Maybe it's just that you haven't discovered it yet. " Wuteng Xiaozuo is still unconvinced.

Zhou Zhong was not in a hurry. He pointed to two loopholes in the painting and continued: "look at these two places. There is a word on this painting. Among the seals below, there is the seal of the Imperial College of the Tang Dynasty."

"People who understand Chinese culture all know that Tang poetry and Song Ci are represented by poetry and Song Dynasty by CI. But in fact, in the Tang Dynasty, there were ci poetry, but in the Tang Dynasty, ci poetry was not elegant. The literature of Tang Dynasty is the most unprecedented development period in the history of Chinese literature. Since Jian'an, great importance has been attached to the rhythm and antithesis movement in literary form. Poetry is a very high existence in the Tang Dynasty. If a literati of the Tang Dynasty can't write poetry, he will be despised by everyone and will not be allowed to participate in any social activities. The court also supported this practice. To put it bluntly, it was the national policy at that time. "

Hearing a little humor in the middle of the week, many people laughed and continued to listen attentively.

Zhou Zhong continued: "although there is no written regulation, if you can't write poetry, you can't be enterprising. However, in the Tang Dynasty, poetry was the only way out for those who wanted to be selected from the imperial examinations. Even those who were not from the imperial examination were not allowed to be prime ministers. Therefore, almost all the literati in the Tang Dynasty were poets

"Let's think about it. Under such a background, as the most high-end culture of the Tang Dynasty, Guozijian would collect such a painting with words? Isn't this a blatant enemy of society? "

After listening to this, everyone nodded in agreement, especially those non archaeologists who used to think that studying archaeology was boring, but now they think that archaeology is really a broad and profound subject with so much attention.
