The Wizard of Medicine

At 58:40, the last guest of honor finally showed up. He was a man in his [-]s, dressed in a suit and leather shoes, and looked imposing.

It is actually a kind of negligence to hold back important activities.

Cai Gaoyang concealed his displeasure, and led the last guest of honor to sit down on the podium.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead, and gave the opening remarks to the guests: "Distinguished guests, friends, we have a long history of Guqin art in China, which has been written and imaged for more than 3000 years. "The Book of Songs" says:' My fair lady, you will be friends with the qin and se.’ It’s the Guqin. It’s my honor to hold the Guqin Appreciation Exchange Meeting in my humble house today, and to make friends with the Qin.

"Let me first introduce the main guests."

"Mr. Huang Xingwen, Guqin connoisseur."

The old man with white beard and hair and wearing navy blue casual clothes stood up to greet everyone.There was polite applause from below.

"Ms. Wu Wan, Professor of the Chinese Department of the University of Hong Kong."

Wen Wenjing, a middle-aged woman in a cheongsam stood up to pay her respects.

Courteous applause.

"Mr. Ding Yongning, President of Central Guqin Club."

Men in suits and leather shoes stood up to pay their respects.

Courteous applause.

Just when everyone thought the introduction was over, Cai Gaoyang said again: "Finally, please allow me the honor to introduce a genius doctor from the Mainland, my savior, Mr. Yan Zixiuyan." After speaking, he took the lead in applauding.

Yan Zixiu was slightly surprised, but he stood up calmly amid the applause, first turned around to greet the auditorium, then the honored guests, and then sat down naturally.

Everyone applauded and whispered: "Who is this young man?"

"Why did Xiao Cai introduce him so grandly?"

"I seem to have heard that Cai Gaoyang's cervical spondylosis was cured by him."

"Is there such a god?"

"Maybe there are two brushes. You can see that Tian Hua also respects him very much."

……

"Our activities today are divided into three major items. The first is to identify guqin, the second is to appreciate famous qin, and the third is to exchange qin art." Cai Gaoyang announced, "The following is the first item, to identify guqin. Guqin please Mr. Huang Xingwen, connoisseur and collector, presided over."

After Cai Gaoyang finished speaking, he stepped off the stage and sat down beside Yan Zixiu.

Mr. Huang with white beard and hair got up and said: "Dear guests and friends, Guqin, as a utensil, not only meets the needs of Guqin players, but also has rich cultural connotations. There are more than 50 different styles of Guqin in existence. , which vividly reflects the aesthetic tastes, ideas and ways of thinking of people in different ages. Due to the continuous heating up of guqin collections, some imitations with low artistic value are also frequently appearing in major cultural relics trading places. Therefore, how to appreciate and Collecting Guqin has become a must-have knowledge for art collectors."

"That's right." The audience below nodded frequently.The so-called art industry has specialization.Mr. Huang's words sounded like a connoisseur's hand.

Mr. Huang clapped his hands, and two servants carried a piano case.

The servant opened the piano case and carefully took out a guqin and put it on the desk.The desk is higher and everyone can see it.

"What do you guys think of this piano?" Old Mr. Huang asked with a smile.

The audience commented a lot, this piano has an antique flavor, the lines and radians are relatively natural, and the materials and carvings of the crown corners are also very exquisite.But in the end, no one dares to draw conclusions lightly.

Cai Gaoyang said to Yan Zixiu: "Some people think it is a Yuan Qin, worth 80 Hong Kong dollars."

Yan Zixiu used Wang Qi Jue and Time Retrospective Technique to look at it, shook his head, and did not speak.

When he shook his head, Mr. Huang saw him: "Little friend Yan, do you have something to say?"

Yan Zixiu had no choice but to get up and said, "This Qin is a mix of old and new, and it's not very valuable."

Except for Mr. Huang, everyone else was taken aback: This doctor Yan actually knows how to identify Guqin?

Mr. Huang caressed his beard and said with a smile: "Little friend Yan, would you like to explain further?"

"This piano is not old-fashioned. Except for the forehead and the second string, between the six emblems and the seven emblems, and the tail of the bottom surface is a true flowing water break, the rest of the broken lines are very hard, which is the evidence."

"Haha, I think so too. This old and new violin is a combination of old and new, so it's not worth much. Well, well, it really is a hero born a boy. The purpose of this old man's display of this violin is to remind everyone not to take carelessly when collecting guqin. Xiaoyou Yan, please seat."

The audience below felt that the water inside was so deep, and without the escort of real experts, they really couldn't be impulsive.

A female audience stood up in the audience, in her 30s, with a dignified appearance: "Mr. Huang, my name is Gu Yingzhi. I recently bought a piano. May I trouble you to identify it?"

After getting Mr. Huang's consent, she beckoned, and the servants carried a piano case.

When he took out the qin, Yan Zixiu looked from a distance and saw that the body of the qin was well-proportioned and peaceful, with a calm and peaceful look, and the paint color was warm and pleasing to the eye, so he couldn't help nodding his head in appreciation.

Tian Hua asked: "Brother Yan, is this piano good?"

"Water contains pearls to create color, and mountains contain jade to produce brilliance. It is indeed a good piano."

Since Yan Zixiu was sitting in the front row, Mr. Huang heard this again: "Little friend Yan, would you like to come on stage and appreciate it together?" After speaking, he took the lead in applauding.

Boss Lin, Cai Gaoyang, and Tian Hua applauded together, which led the audience to applaud together.The other two honored guests on the stage applauded politely with doubts.

Yan Zixiu was also polite and went to the podium.Gu Yingzhi, a female audience member, also stood beside Guqin.

Huang Lao asked: "Young friend Yan, may you see the quality of this piano?"

This is a Zhongni-style guqin, the whole body is full of flowing water, and the broken lines are sparkling.

Yan Zixiu plucked the remaining three strings, and immediately a ghostly sound came out from the belly of the piano, which made people calm down: "This is a precious piano."

Mr. Huang asked again: "Which dynasty and generation did it come from?"

Yan Zixiu has already read it with Wang Qi Jue and Time Retrospective Technique: "Song Dynasty."

Gu Yingzhi, a female audience member, smiled lightly: "Doctor Yan said that this piano is a Baoqin, which is really good. But Chao Dynasty was wrong."

Yan Zixiu asked: "I would like to hear the details." He was not in a hurry to refute, but listened to the other party's evidence first.

Gu Yingzhi said: "I bought it at the price of a Ming Qin. Of course I hope it is a Song Qin. But there is an inscription in the belly of this Qin, which says it was made by Huang Wenhao in the Ding Chou Year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty. Many experts judged it to be a Ming Qin. So Doctor Yan is wrong."

Hearing that Yan Zixiu made a wrong judgment, Boss Lin and the others were naturally sorry, and of course some were also amused.

For example, Ding Yongning, the president of the Central Guqin Club, smiled disdainfully.He felt that a young man was just a young man, and it happened to be okay to say a few words correctly.In actual combat, it is still insufficient.

Mr. Huang looked at the piano for a while, then illuminated it with a flashlight, and looked at the inscriptions inside the belly of the piano. He was a little uncertain: "Xiaoyou Yan said it was Song Qin, and I also felt the same way when I first saw it. But the inside of this piano is I am a little hesitant because of the inscription of a well-informed person."
