Chapter 178 Oil Lamp
"Lao Peng, Zhang Xiaotong, you come down with me, and the others are waiting on it."
After finishing speaking, Zhang Long handed the straw rope to Wang Kaixuan, holding the oil lamp in one hand, and the other end of the rope in the other and went down.
Zhang Xiaotong followed closely, and Peng Hai walked last.
This is a space of about ten square meters. There is a table and a chair in the middle, and there are places for oil lamps on the walls on both sides.
Further down is a bunch of things that can't be seen.
There are white and yellow, and some wood scum. This kind of thing is placed against the wall on three sides, and the other side is where they came.
"What's all this?"
Peng Hai squatted on the ground, thumb and forefinger pinched a piece of white object, unexpectedly it turned into powder, and it shattered when touched.
"Let me see."
Zhang Xiaotong took out his glasses from his pocket and put them on.
After observing it carefully for a while, I picked up a piece of wood and observed it for a while, then put it under my nose and smelled it.
"This piece of wood has a straight grain, and the edge is a little reddish-brown. It also has a particularly light fragrance. It should be fir."
"Ouch!"
Then there was a tremor on the ground.
Zhang Long conditioned reflex to look back.
I saw Peng Hai sitting on the ground with a flushed face, and the table just now fell apart.
"Fuck... I just helped the table. How can this fir be so weak? There was a tofu dregs project decades ago?"
Zhang Long held his forehead for a while.
"No, what do you think? Seeing that the bookcases of the same material are all shattered into pieces, why don't you go and help the table, don't you fall?"
After speaking, he flipped through the pile of things.
"This is a bookcase made of fir wood, all those are, but because the age is too long, these wood and books are broken, and they can be preserved as they are now, probably because the place has been vacuumed."
"vacuum?"
Peng Hai patted his butt and stood up.
"How is this sealed? Didn't you just say that the age is old, how could there be vacuum technology..."
Zhang Xiaotong pointed at an oil lamp not far away.
"Use that."
"The burning of oil lamps consumes a lot of oxygen. This basement is airtight. As long as the exits are blocked tightly, and the oil lamps with enough fuel are lit indoors, it should be able to do this."
"Hey, as you put it, the people who used to live here were pretty smart."
"Okay, let's go, there seems to be nothing to see here, bring the oil lamp."
Several people returned to the ground along the hemp rope.
Sitting in the main room and chatting about the things I just discovered.
"I carefully observed it when I went down before. The table is a tenon-and-mortise structure, and tables of that style are rare now."
"What do you need to say? Fir things take fifty or sixty years to rot, let alone vacuumed ones. It can take hundreds of years to rot to that level."
"Tsk, no and no."
I saw Wang Shengli holding the oil lamp in both hands and scrutinizing it carefully.
"Do you know which dynasty this oil lamp is from?"
"Which dynasty and generation? Brother, don't make fun of me. With such a rubbish thing, it's still a dynasty?"
Wang Shengli gave Wang Kaixuan a shudder.
"I told you to study hard before, but you didn't listen! Now you can't recognize the real baby when you meet it!"
"This is a very typical pottery oil lamp from the Qin Dynasty. Note that it is pottery, not ceramics. Look at the workmanship and the depth. If it wasn't from the Tang Dynasty, I would have eaten this lamp!"
After Wang Shengli finished speaking, he patted his chest loudly, with a firm expression on his face.
In fact, before coming to this deserted island, Wang Shengli had done a wide range of things, including these jade antiques.
He has been to the antique markets all over the country, and he has seen a lot of fakes, as well as a lot of real ones. As the saying goes, practice makes perfect.
Zhang Long looked at him with some doubts, and then looked at the others.
"Hey, you said who built this place? I think that the basement just now is well-behaved."
"Yeah, if I want to say that our place seems to be better than the camp, as long as you clean up a little, you can live in it, but it's a pity how to fix it in such a ghost place."
"If this is done outside, we won't have to spend so long building the camp. After so long, no one is comfortable here."
Seeing that no one paid him any attention, Wang Shengli was so angry that he blew his beard and stared.
"Hey, what are you doing, big brother, what I said is true!"
"Tsk, sigh, I said Wang Shengli, you said this thing belonged to the Qin Dynasty, then do you have any evidence? It's just such a form of oil lamp, you ask me to make one for you now, I can do it too, after finishing it Wouldn’t it be exactly the same as this if you leave it for a while, or bury it in the soil for a few years and dig it out?”
"Oh, although I don't have any evidence, my intuition has always been accurate. Oh, why don't you go, what I said is true!"
If this was said from Zhang Xiaotong's mouth, Zhang Long felt that he could still study it.
When the key point was in the camp before, Wang Kaixuan had already shaken off his brother's mess.
He won the lottery in his early years, and after Hu Chihai had been drinking for a while, he saw a piece of beautiful jade and bought it at a high price. It was all right, just like his friends showed off this jade.
At that time, someone really knew jade and said that he said that the jade was fake. Wang Shengli was immediately angry when he heard this, and he almost got into a fight with others.
The two made a bet that if it was true, the man would buy it at double the price, and Wang Shengli patted his chest and agreed, and went to the show to find experts for appraisal.
The three old men were delighted when they saw the jade, and asked how much he spent to buy it. Eight hundred thousand, the price is not low, right?
After hearing this, the three people who were happy almost laughed and turned their backs.
Said that this thing is a glass species, pure glass species.
The angry Wang Shengli couldn't eat for several days, and then he lost weight like this.
Zhang Long really didn't believe it if he could see something like this.
A few wandered around for a while in other rooms and couldn't find anything useful, and it was getting dark gradually, so they simply built a fire on the spot to make a stove.
Although there are plenty of rooms here, it is an unfamiliar environment after all, and several people did not dare to sleep separately, so they brought a few blankets to the main room to lay the floor.
The cans were heated and the water was boiled. After eating, they each found a place to rest. Of course, for the sake of safety, several people took turns to stand guard.
Zhang Xiaotong was the first, followed by Wang Shengli, Wang Kaixuan, and Zhang Long and Bai Wenwen in the second half of the night.
After they were divided, perhaps because they were too tired from the long journey during the day, everyone quickly fell asleep.
