Chapter 0128 [Beauty’s Gift 1]
"Zhang Yilong, it's this bronze sword." Mo Wanting then took out the sword carefully. Because the bronze sword was huge, she was a weak woman with little strength, so she couldn't lift it with one hand, and she barely took it out of the box with both hands. When the thing was placed on the table, she saw that her pretty face turned red and her breathing was a little rapid. It was conceivable that she had just put in a lot of effort.
"Not bad, pretty!" Zhang Yilong couldn't help but exclaim.
Although he had seen the bronze sword in Mo Wanting's hand through his perspective before, he was watching it up close, and he was looking openly, so he could calm down and see it.
When observing again, Zhang Yilong couldn't help but feel a little surprised, as if it was the first time he saw it, with an inexplicable sense of freshness.
"Thank you." Seeing Zhang Yilong feeling a little excited when he saw his sword, Mo Wanting was naturally very happy and introduced with a clever smile, "This sword has no major disadvantages. It has a complete scabbard, the scabbard and the patterns on the body are relatively clear, and there is no obvious copper rust. Zhang Yilong, have you ever seen this kind of bronze sword before? A friend of mine bought this sword at a high price from an auction in London, England. Later he gave it to me. I have kept it to this day. To be honest, except for you, I have not seen it for anyone else. I have no research on bronze swords, but I think this thing is pretty good. I guess you have a good eye, so please help me with your palms."
"Miss Mo. You are too modest." Zhang Yilong quickly shook his head and said, "It's rare to see such a good sword! This is the first time I have seen such a beautiful bronze sword with my own eyes. I dare not be aware of the palms, so everyone learns from each other."
To be honest, it would be strange if Zhang Yilong had seen such an exquisite bronze sword. He was always heard that the "King of Yue Goujian Sword" was "the world's No. 1 bronze sword", but he had never had the chance to see him in person. However, at this time today, he saw Mo Wanting's bronze giant sword, and he only felt that the King of Yue Goujian Sword was just like this.
It is unfinished in both the shape and the surface decoration, and is simply flawless. If it were not for seeing it with your own eyes, Zhang Yilong could not believe that a sword that spans thousands of years could be preserved so well. This shows how exquisite its casting process is.
"This is definitely not an ordinary bronze sword!" Zhang Yilong judged secretly.
"Miss Mo, can I get started and take a look?" Zhang Yilong asked in restraint.
"Of course it's OK!" Mo Wanting nodded without hesitation and said, "You can just watch it. But you have to be careful. This sword is a little heavy and is very sharp when pulled out, but don't hurt your hand."
"I will pay attention. Thank you, then." Zhang Yilong said excitedly, then he stood up and took out a pair of white sanitary gloves from his pocket to put on.
Then, Zhang Yilong took a few steps closer and reached out his hand to stroke the sword excitedly.
The touch was very strong. When Zhang Yilong got the sword, he felt an indescribable feeling, which was very wonderful.
After all, it is a treasure that has lasted for thousands of years. The ancient charm is extremely strong, and when you get close, people can't help but recall the ancient times.
The bronze sword's scabbard is covered with exquisite painted patterns. After thousands of years, the patterns have shown no obvious signs of falling off and incompleteness, which proves that ancient Chinese coloring technology is valuable.
"Miss Mo, this should be a two-handed sword, right?" Zhang Yilong said while admiring in detail, "This sword must be not light."
"Well, it's very not easy." Mo Wanting said with a smile, "Zhang Yilong, why don't you pick it up and try it. I didn't play with this much, but it should be very suitable for you. Didn't you just say that you prefer to collect ancient swords?"
"Yes, yes." Zhang Yilong nodded and said, "Then I will pick it up and take a look. Can I draw the sword out and take a look?"
Mo Wanting responded without thinking: "No problem, I said you can just watch it casually, don't be polite. It is a great fate for everyone to get together to exchange experiences for collection, not to mention exchanging experiences with big collectors like you."
Zhang Yilong said: "You are too rewarded, you are the big collector."
His words came from the heart because he could see that Mo Wanting was not an ordinary collector, and it was definitely not easy for him to have such a big deal.
As he said that, Zhang Yilong held the bronze sword in both hands and picked it up carefully. The hand was heavy, probably weighing dozens of pounds. One wrist was so weak that it could not be picked up at all. Even if it could barely hold it, it would not be able to move.
However, he knew that ancient soldiers were burly and had great strength, so they were another two-handed sword, so they naturally waved them freely when they waved them.
After holding the sword up and inspecting it seriously for a while, Zhang Yilong called the master of the sword Mo Wanting again, and then grabbed the beautifully decorated hilt of the sword with one hand and held the scabbard with one hand, slowly pulled it backwards.
"Chorus~~"
A crisp and long sound suddenly sounded, and Zhang Yilong finally pulled the sword out of the sheath.
At that moment, his eyes couldn't help but widen slightly. When he looked at the sword body at such a close distance, he felt that the sword was particularly sharp.
"What a sword, what a sword, what a top-quality sword!" Zhang Yilong couldn't help but exclaimed in his heart.
The sword body was carved with diamond-shaped patterns, which looked neat and beautiful, and the blade shone with cold light and showed its sharpness. Before it could be used, it was known how sharp it was.
At that moment, Zhang Yilong's eyes were covered by the entire sword. He was a little calm and his vision unknowingly penetrated the surface of the sword body and looked inside.
This is something that others cannot do. It is his unique ability in treasure appraisal. If you can see through it, his advantages are naturally obvious. Generally speaking, if you make the surface of the thing, you can just make the "paste" look "spicy and colorful". In any case, treasure appraisers with naked eyes cannot see it. Even if they are top experts in the industry, they will be able to see it if they misunderstand the surface imagination.
After a meticulous observation, Zhang Yilong concluded that there was no problem with this sword. It was an authentic bronze sword. It should be a Qin Dynasty sword weapon, and it was only used by the general, because only general-level personnel can afford to make such exquisite swords.
But Zhang Yilong only knew so much. He only knew that the bronze swords of the Qin Dynasty were larger and more grand than those of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. This can be seen from the sword of King Goujian of Yue.
Compared to the current giant bronze sword, King Goujian of Yue is really a "small witch"!
"Huh?!" When the eyes slowly pulled back from the inside of the sword body, Zhang Yilong's eyes lit up.
He discovered something unusual and could be seen faintly. An inscription was engraved on a certain part of the sword body, and it was three points into the sword.
However, the inscription is just distributed in a slightly rusty part. It is not very obvious at first glance, and you can see it carefully. However, it is clearer under Zhang Yilong's perspective.
"What kind of text is this? Is it Xiaozhang? This should be the legendary 'bird seal script', right?" Zhang Yilong looked at it carefully and saw that there were two lines of characters written in total, evenly distributed on both sides of the sword blade, with a total of eight characters, and four on each side.
Zhang Yilong could not recognize the eight characters with strange shapes, but they must have deep meanings, just like the eight golden silk characters on the sword of King Goujian of Yue - "King King Goujian of Yue, use swords for creation". Perhaps the eight hieroglyphs also indicate the origin of the sword.
"This is not a sword that has been used by famous swords or very famous people, right?" Zhang Yilong then thought to himself, but he could not recognize the strange words, so he could only find an expert to decipher them.
"Zhang Yilong, you give it a try."
At this moment, Mo Wanting, who was sitting beside her, greeted with a smile.
"Oh?" Hearing this, Zhang Yilong came back to his senses. He immediately turned his head and looked around. He saw Mo Wanting put a relatively thick magazine on the table.
She stared at Zhang Yilong, her eyes flashing, and she felt a sense of fanaticism.
Zhang Yilong understood what she meant and said, "You asked me to try the sharpness of your sword, right? It must be very sharp. If I guess it is correct, the sharpness of this sword light wheel will not be inferior to the most famous "King of Yue Goujian Sword".
"That's not necessarily." Mo Wanting smiled seriously and said, "The judgment is often biased, but the facts are the basis. You can only know after trying it yourself."
"Well, then I'll try it." Zhang Yilong also nodded enthusiastically. This was something he wanted, and he also wanted to prove how powerful this sword was.
So he put down his scabbard, held the sword in both hands, and then raised his heavy sword to cut it into the magazine.
In fact, the blade just touched the cover of the magazine and cut it down like tofu.
Then, Zhang Yilong gently cut the table, just a moment, because he was afraid that he would accidentally cut the table, so he should not let Sister Ying suffer any losses for no reason.
"So sharp!" Zhang Yilong couldn't help but exclaim.
"I'll count, see how many pieces of paper have been cut." When Zhang Yilong lifted his sword, Mo Wanting's child's heart suddenly became clear. He hurriedly picked up the book and counted it carefully, and then counted: "It seems that nearly fifteen pieces of paper were cut and scratched."
"Awesome!!" Zhang Yilong thought, and a sense of fear suddenly surged in his heart. The effect was terrible. It was not ordinary paper, but relatively hard paper. If it was thin rice paper, the number of pieces cut would definitely be more. It would be great if the flesh and blood body touched. From this we can see how cruel the war was in ancient times, and it was chopping and killing each other at close range.
Zhang Yilong seemed to think of the cruelty of war in ancient times. A general who rode on a horse waved his long sword and fought out a bloody path. Wherever he went, he broke his limbs and legs, blood and flesh flew everywhere...
Thinking of that scene makes people feel excited!
