Gold is hidden in prosperous times, food is hoarded in troubled times, and the antiques that are difficult to distinguish between true and false have always been hidden with murderous intent. The owner of Liulichang's "Four Hui Zhai" made a wish and wanted to abide by his father's legacy of "repent, repent, repent, repent". However, on his thirtieth birthday, he was involved in the century-old mystery of a Zetianmingtang jade Buddha head.
The late-night visit of a mysterious official from the Eighth Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security, the century-old grudges of the Wumei Plum Blossom Antiquity Society, and the sudden return of treasure by the descendants of Japanese scholars all point to an old incident that has been historically designated as a "traitor case" - in 1931, Xu Yicheng, Xu Yicheng's grandfather, was shot for stealing and selling national treasures, and all the clues hint at a shocking reversal.
When the sea beast Grape Mirror in the Tang Dynasty caused the tin epidemic in the ice cellar, when the Zheng family in Anyang came up with its killer move, and when Huang Yanyan fought with his life at stake, Xu Wish had to use the secret skills of "Su Ding Lu" as a blade to cut through the layers of fakery. The truth is finally revealed: the Buddha's head is not his head, and the bright moon is not the moon. Only by looking with one's true heart can one see the Tathagata.
This book uses antique treasure appraisal as the shell, suspense detective cases as the bones, and cultural heritage as the soul. Between the clanging of gold and stone, this book explores the great justice of the nation and the subtleties of human nature. The author uses evidence-level details of cultural relics and interlocking puzzle designs to drag readers into an intellectual game that spans sixty years. There is no rain of bullets here, but there is a hidden edge in every conversation; there is no sword or sword here, but every palm and eye can determine life or death.
Open this book and witness how a half-sentence is worth a thousand words, and how to use truth to pierce the lies of the times.
