The lock was so corroded that even a brick could break it. The administrator pushed the door open, but instead of walking in, he covered his mouth and nose with his left hand and gently moved the front with his right hand a few times.

The dust and mold are quite heavy.

"Professor Yu, Teacher Li, I brought a mask." A student took out several masks from his bag and handed one to Li Mo.

"Thanks."

Li Mo put on his mask and walked in first. He really didn't know what to look for. He was shocked when he saw that the dust inside was not ordinary thick. When his feet stepped on the ground, they could leave deep and clear footprints. How many were inside?

The shelves made of wood are covered with dust, and they are only one or two millimeters thick when you scratch them with your hands. In addition to the wooden shelves filled with various documents and materials, the ground is also full of various things, all of which are covered with dust.

Even though it was dusty, I couldn't tell what it was stuffed with.

Several passages are blocked, and there is no room to move around. It seems quite difficult to dig out valuable things from inside.

Li Mo didn't know if he could gain anything after working for a long time, so he took a look with his different eyes first. His clairvoyance gaze extended from the first row all the way back. His current clairvoyance distance limit was about 30 meters, so he could completely see this sight.

Every corner of this warehouse.

Suddenly, clear lights rose up from the dusty warehouse, which represented meaningless things. After seeing nothing from one row, I moved my perspective to the second row, scanning from the back to the front.

I didn't have much hope at first, but when the eyes of the strange pupils swept to the middle and rear, a gray halo suddenly came out, and then turned into a circle of light and spread. It was like encountering a sweet spring in the desert, which made people feel a hundred times more energetic.

.

That is a bowl. Could it be porcelain from the official kiln in the mid-Qing Dynasty?

Li Mo temporarily suppressed the excitement in his heart, and continued to scan with his strange eyes. There was nothing else in the second row, but in the third row against the wall, in the second half, the perspective changed again.

Two light gray circles of light spread, and two milky white circles of light spread.

Judging from the halo color, two are antiques from the late Qing Dynasty, and two are from the Republic of China to after the Republic of China. They have considerable historical and artistic value.

Finally, his eyes searched for the things piled up in the passage. They were all rubbish.

It seemed that there were not only treasures but also important treasures in this warehouse that existed before the founding of the Qing Dynasty. Especially the porcelain from the mid-Qing Dynasty, which he was looking forward to very much.

"Teacher Li, you and Professor Yu wait at the door first. Let's pack up the things inside first."

A total of eight students were fully armed, with dust masks on their heads, masks on their faces, and gloves to prevent scratches on their hands.

"Any more? Give me a set too."

Although it is known that those things are placed on the shelves, this warehouse has not been touched for many years, and it is not known whether these wooden shelves have corroded. If they are accidentally knocked over and cause a chain reaction, the damage will be extraordinary.

serious.

"There are a few more sets, I'll give them to you."

A female classmate took out another set from the car trunk and handed it to Li Mo, and helped him put on the dust cover.

"Professor Yu and the female students are out temporarily. You can just wait outside. I will take a few male students to clean up the things in the passage first. If they are useless, you can just ask the cleaning staff to come and deal with them."

"Teacher Li, thank you for your hard work."

The five female classmates all laughed. This teacher, who was one or two years younger than me, still knew how to be compassionate.

After waiting for the irrelevant people to be pushed out, Li Mo walked to the aisle in the third row and said, "You don't need to do anything. I'll go through it first, and then you can take it out."

"Okay, Teacher Li."

Li Mo bent down and started to work, and suddenly the dust inside flew up. This clothes was completely useless, but fortunately the ones he bought were all cheap. As pieces of waste were cleaned out from the warehouse, almost all the people inside were covered in dust.

shrouded.

"Professor Yu, these seem to be slogans written a long time ago. They are rotten when touched." A female classmate knelt down to take a closer look and pinched them with her hands.

"Please inform the cleaning staff to come over and ask them to bring a few more high-power vacuum cleaners."

The administrator immediately took out his cell phone to make a call. After making the call, he looked into the warehouse. There was a lot of dust, and several figures were looming.

It took more than half an hour to clean up that passage. The four men were all disgraced when they walked out of the warehouse.

The three high-power vacuum cleaners that had been prepared for a long time started to work, and the sound of whirring kept making.

"Teacher Li, wipe it with a dry cloth first, and then change the mask." Professor Yu looked very embarrassed. Wasn't this just dragging people over to do hard work?

"Everyone, please be careful. The wooden legs inside are rotten and very unstable."

Li Mo shouted a few words, and the three vacuum cleaners started working. The windows were also opened from the outside to let the wind in. It was estimated that he would be able to work again in an hour and a half.

"Professor Yu, the first passage has been cleared. Once you can enter, just send someone to follow me."

"good."

The efficiency of dust removal is quite fast. It was much fresher in less than 20 minutes, and there was no scary scene of dust flying all over the sky.

After waiting for another ten minutes, Li Mo changed into a new hood and mask, and walked into the warehouse with a female classmate, while the others stayed at the door and watched.

Li Mo turned on a flashlight and looked first from the row against the wall. The bookshelves were filled with documents, and it was difficult to take them out one by one and read them one by one.

"We first check to see if there are any boxed items on the shelf. Generally speaking, the relatively important items will be somewhat protected. The exposed items will have lower value even if they are exposed. This preliminary screening can greatly speed up our speed."

"Teacher Li, I just need to follow you."

"Okay." Li Mo shined the flashlight from top to bottom and slowly moved forward. After walking about eight steps, he stopped and asked the female classmate to hold the flashlight, and then took down a rectangular box from the second floor.

, he knew that there was a painting in it, but it was very ordinary, and the good stuff was yet to come.

When he reached the second half of the journey, Li Mo finally took down a square box from the top shelf, which was slightly heavy in his hand.

"Take it out carefully and put it on the table by the door first."

Li Mo took out a box from the shelf every few steps. He took out four boxes one after another, some long and some short. They were the four treasures that his strange eyes had seen reacting to before. There are also more on the third row of shelves.

Li Mo carefully took down several boxes one by one and delivered them to the table at the door.

The third row cleared out nine boxes.

Next, Li Mo cleared out twelve boxes from the second row. Among them, the wooden square box containing the porcelain from the mid-Qing Dynasty was delivered outside by himself. Many students were already watching outside, probably here

There was so much movement that it aroused a lot of curiosity.

When Li Mo walked out of the warehouse, the second table about two meters long had been installed.

"Professor Yu, these are all in boxes. If there is a high probability of finding something good, I would try to find it in these twenty-one boxes first. If there is nothing good in these, I guess there is something good in those files.

The probability of something is even smaller.”

"We just have a little expectation. If you can give us a surprise, that would be better. I will cooperate with you next."

Li Mo opened the first square box and found a bowl inside. However, there was a black coating below the middle of the bowl. When he scratched it lightly with his finger, there was black powder at the bottom.

"This is the residue of dried ink. This bowl should be used to store ink." Li Mo directly judged that this bowl was not even porcelain, but a pottery bowl, the cheapest kind of bowl on the market.

"A clay bowl."

Li Mo handed the bowl to Professor Yu for inspection. Professor Yu looked at it for a few times and said, "You are the most authoritative in appraising porcelain, calligraphy and painting. There is no need for me to appraise it again."

Next, I opened five boxes in succession, and the contents inside were very disappointing.

The sixth one was a rectangular box, which contained antiques from the late Qing Dynasty. He opened the lid and found two scrolls inside. Li Mo took out one of them, cut the binding rope, and slowly unfolded it. Although it was

It was afternoon, but there were lush shades of trees overhead and no direct sunlight, so there was no problem for a short period of time.

Spread out is a couplet with a total of seven characters, "Cao Ying You Yao Yuan Fei Huo". There are also two seals in the lower left corner, one of which is engraved in seal script. Carefully identify the three characters "Liu Fu Yao".

The other one is for authentication and collection.

"This looks like one of the couplets. Open it and take a look at what the other one is." Professor Yu opened the other one. What was written on it was the other half of the couplet 'The lotus dew is not as bright as a pearl'.

The calligraphy of this couplet can only be described as average.

"Teacher Li, what do you think of this couplet?"

Professor Yu saw that Li Mo had been watching carefully, and she had no impression of Liu Fuyao.

"This Liu Fuyao was the number one scholar in the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty. He ranked first in the imperial examination. He was also the last number one scholar in the imperial examination in Guidi. Because of Emperor Guangxu, the Qing Dynasty was basically over. This man was an upright person and an upright official, so he was

He was very unsuccessful in his official career and was directly demoted in the late Qing Dynasty. In fact, this person did not have much attainments in calligraphy. If he did not have the status of number one scholar, he would be an unknown figure in history.

"

"Professor Yu, this couplet is an authentic calligraphy work by Liu Fuyao, the number one scholar during the reign of Emperor Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty. It has some historical value."

I actually found an authentic piece of calligraphy from the late Qing Dynasty in the warehouse, and the person who wrote it was the top scholar in the Guangxu period. The discussion among the onlookers was even louder, and some people had already posted a live broadcast on the campus intranet.

Li Mo rolled up the two couplets and put them back together.

"Professor Yu, you can take care of this. It's not too valuable. Even if it goes to auction, this authentic Liu Fu and Yao painting will only cost tens of thousands of yuan at most."

"This is a good start, let's see what's in the other boxes?"
Chapter completed!
