This qin is sixty centimeters long and fourteen centimeters wide. It is indeed made of colored glaze, but it is only infiltrated with bronze.Made by the typical dewaxing manufacturing process, if it is not because of the rusty spots of bronze, it can be regarded as beautiful and beautiful.A phoenix is ​​carved and cast on the body of the piano, with a calm and lifelike expression, like flying.

Shu Yi put down the magnifying glass, and said softly: "This is also a glazed qin, but it should be an imitation of the Jin Dynasty. It is not easy to draw such a conclusion from the craftsmanship of the glazed glass alone, but we can look at the bronze casting of this qin Craftsmanship. Its patterns and decorations are also complicated and simple. Before the Spring and Autumn Period, it was the heyday of bronze wares. It also tends to be simpler, and the carcass is gradually thinner."

"In the Jin Dynasty, bronze wares gradually shifted from practicality to appreciation. At this time, the patterns and decorations of bronze wares became more sophisticated again. They were no longer as simple as those in the Qin and Han Dynasties, but they still could not compare with the cumbersomeness of the Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties before the Spring and Autumn Period. , so the patterns and decorations of Jin Dynasty bronzes are more like the products of the transition period from complex to simple. It is also because of this that I conclude that this piano should be from the Jin Dynasty." Shu Yi said.

Shi Qing asked: "The qin is an ancient qin, what about the strings?" Shu Yi smiled wryly: "The strings are like ancient strings, called ice strings. That's why the place where we play the qin is not too far away from us, and the mountains and forests are quiet. The reason why the sound of the piano is faintly visible." Ye Qinghan's heart was shaken greatly, and he looked at Shu Yi with complicated eyes, Shu Yi seemed to have a pair of eyes that could penetrate people and things.Ximen said hopelessly: "What is Bingxian?"

This time it was Shi Qing who answered on his behalf: "The ancient strings were mostly made of silk, and Chengbing strings are the best among them. A kind of auxiliary glue is added to the strings made of silk, so that The strings became vaguely transparent, like ice silk. However, it is said that the craft of making ice strings has long been lost, so the master said that these strings are also ancient strings."

Shu Yi said lightly: "It seems that someone has already been eyeing us, and the offer is really generous. Just this piano, which is worth a lot of money, but it was easily given to us." Yehai didn't understand what Shu Yi and the others were saying What, she asked, "Who the hell are you guys? What the hell is going on here?"

Shu Yi glanced at Xiao Sheng and motioned him to close the door.The moment the door closed, Shu Yi felt Ye Hai's cramping and uneasiness.Shu Yi asked softly: "Miss Yehai, we should be asking you this question. Who are you? Why did you approach us on purpose?" Yehai said, "What did you say? I don't understand. "

Shu Yi smiled slightly: "Really? Girl Yehai, you are actually not a student, but a policeman, right?" Although everyone has heard from Shu Yi that Ye Hai often touches guns, Shu Yi said with certainty She is a policeman, and everyone is still a little puzzled.Yehai was even more surprised, and was taken aback: "How do you know?"

Shu Yi said: "Think about it, you're a girl with a few strangers you just met, but your father doesn't worry about your safety at all. It can be said that he is simple in heart and doesn't think of people as bad. , but is it not that he is too reassuring about you and believes that nothing will happen to you? Where does his confidence come from? There is only one explanation, your occupation. Also, if I guess correctly, you should not only be 20 years old, but your A baby face can really help you hide your real age."

Shu Yi felt the hostility from Ye Hai, he smiled and said: "Don't get excited, actually we have no malice towards you, I just want to tell you that if you spend too much time and energy on us, then you will choose a bad target No, we are not the person you are looking for." After hearing this, Ye Hai relaxed slightly: "It seems that you are not tourists." Shu Yi said: "It doesn't matter to you who we are, we have Our business, so, from now on, you are fired by me, you go to your own business."

Yehai smiled, and the smile with two small dimples was indescribably charming, she said softly: "This is not acceptable, I have already collected the money, and I will naturally finish my work, so I will spend the whole day today. I will still be by your side and be a good guide for you."

Shu Yi said lightly: "It seems that Miss Yehai will never be reconciled if she doesn't understand our identities." She gave out the certificate and handed it to Yehai. Yehai opened it and took a look. She was startled. Although she didn't know what department the Ninth Division was, she knew about the National Security Bureau.She returned the certificate to Ye Qinghan, and Shu Yi asked: "Do you want to see all of ours?"

Ye Hai shook his head with a wry smile, Shu Yi said: "Don't worry about us now?" , We won't kill you to silence you, but you really can't say anything about this matter, you are a policeman, so you must know what you can say and what you can't say."

Ye Hai nodded, Shu Yi said: "Do you still want to be this guide?" Ye Hai puffed up his chest: "Yes, why not?"

Shu Yi said: "But I really want to ask you for your help." Ye Hai said: "Mr. Shu, please tell me." Shu Yi said: "I want to know if there is any famous luthier in the local area."

"What luthier?" Yehai asked puzzled.Shu Yi said: "I think he must be old and proficient in violin making, especially in making violin strings. Of course, the scope can be narrowed a bit. He is not a local, but the time he stayed in Ximing But it’s not short, at least ten years or more.”

Yehai said: "I don't know for sure, but I can help you to find out." Shu Yi said: "Then trouble Yehai girl, remember to keep it secret." Yehai smiled: "Don't worry, if there is such a One person, I will definitely be able to help you find it."

After Yehai left, Shi Qing stepped forward and asked, "Sir, how do you know there is such a luthier?" Shu Yi said, "I just doubt it, but I'm not sure yet. Look at the strings, although they seem to be Bingxian, but not simple enough." Shi Qing picked up the piano and looked at it.Ximen Wuwang said: "What's so special about this string?" Shu Yi said: "The ancients made silk ice strings, the jelly contains more protein, the tentacles are smooth, but the luster and transparency are slightly poorer."

Shu Yi plucked the string lightly, and continued: "Although this string is also made of silk, and the workmanship is similar to ice string, but it feels a bit rough, which means that the colloid is not mostly protein. I don't know what glue is, but its gloss and transparency are much higher than that of ancient ice strings, and it is more like modern craftsmanship. Of course, the reason why I am not sure is because everything is possible, who can Guaranteed that there really was no such craft in ancient times?"

Xiao Sheng asked: "Even if it is a modern technology, why are you sure that the person who made the strings is also a luthier, and he is in Ximing?" Shu Yi said: "Do you think it is so easy to string a guqin? Especially This kind of silk is very easy to break. Only those who know the quality of the strings can install the strings. It must not be too far away.”

Ye Qinghan smiled and said: "I didn't expect that there are so many details about a piano." Shu Yi said: "Everything in the world is knowledge, and human feelings are essays. The ancients have long understood this truth." Shi Qing said: "People who play the piano will Could it be the person who made the strings?"

Shu Yi shook his head: "That's not necessarily the case, I think it's the same person who makes, winds and tunes the strings, but it's another person who plays the piano." Shi Qing asked: "Why?" Shu Yi said : "Although the sound of the piano we heard can be regarded as the authentic sound of Brahma and elegance, it lacks vicissitudes and tranquility. It is impossible to make ice strings so magical."

Shu Yi stood up: "I want to go to the forest just now, Ximen, you can go with me." Ye Qinghan asked: "What about us?" Shu Yi said: "You and Xiao Sheng Stay here, keep an eye on Qin, and wait for news from Yehai, little monk, you can go with me too."

Shu Yi led Ximen Wuwang and Shi Qin to survey the grove again, but they didn't find anything. Ximen was a little frustrated, but Shu Yi was very relaxed, with a nonchalant look and a happy expression on his face.Ximen asked hopelessly and puzzled: "Shu Chu, we didn't find any clues, you seem to be very happy?" Shu Yi smiled: "Who said there are no clues, at least we already know that the opponent is very cautious, It is very meticulous, and it is naturally a joy to have such an opponent.”

Shu Yi's words were full of excitement, and his eyes flashed as fierce as a wolf seeing its prey.

When she returned to the hotel, Yehai had already returned, and she told Shu Yi that the so-called luthier was not found, and this result was already expected by Shu Yi.He sighed softly: "I hope he is still alive." Yehai asked: "What do you mean?" Everyone also stared at Shu Yi closely.

Shu Yi said: "I think the luthier may have been murdered, of course, unless he is someone inside them. Miss Yehai, please pay attention to the police station and see if there are any murders happening in the near future."

Ye Qinghan said: "Shu Chu, why are you so sure that the person who gave us the qin is an enemy or not a friend?" Shu Yi said lightly: "It's because of the sound of the qin, given the texture of the string, it should have the sound of gold and stone. momentum, but what we heard was a bit dull, it was suppressing, little monk, you are also a master of rhythm, please recall, what is he suppressing?"

Shi Qing said softly: "Suppress Xiao's murderous aura." Shu Yi nodded: "Yes, what he wants to suppress is murderous aura!"
