Starting My Treasure Hunting In England
Chapter 75 A break
During the Cold War, the dark cloud of nuclear war hung over mankind all over the world. Among them, there are 1,200 nuclear bombs aimed at Britain alone. In this case, the fear of nuclear war was deeply implanted in everyone's heart.
For many people at that time, before falling asleep at night, they would worry uneasily about whether they would be able to wake up alive tomorrow morning.
Therefore, in this case, building various protective bunkers became a popular practice at that time. For example, at that time, all countries were desperately building various public civil defense fortifications, and many private individuals were also building private fortifications.
There is such a private bunker next to the small private ranch residential area purchased by Liang En. It is different from the simple protective bunkers built by ordinary people. The owner of this ranch is a rich man, so he can build this bunker sitting 7m underground. bunker.
As the world situation changed and the risk of a global nuclear war became less and less, the bunker was gradually abandoned and turned into an underground warehouse for the owner of the ranch.
After Liang En accepted the ranch, apart from some basic renovations, the only big change he made was to turn the underground nuclear-proof bunker into an antique warehouse, ready to be used to store various things he might find in the future.
Of course, this small basement is now empty. Except for a safe in the corner that contained the chess pieces from the Isle of Lewis that Liang En found last time, the Kazan copper pot and some gadgets, there were only a few things shipped from the United States.
I have to say that Mr. Bruce from before was really powerful. He not only helped Liang En transport the ring, necklace and the RB painting and calligraphy work, but also helped him transport back the 56 and a half and go through the corresponding procedures.
"The EU gun license is still Class B. It is not an easy document to obtain." As a former soldier, Fan Meng knows these things very well. Compared with Class C and D certificates, this Class B certificate is allowed to possess up to three long guns and two pistols.
However, compared with the Class A document, which is basically impossible to apply for, this document does not allow the possession of any military weapons or automatic weapons. It is also not allowed to carry firearms with integrated ammunition in urban areas and other residential areas.
"I only have a Category C license, so I can only hold pure single-shot civilian long guns, and I can't carry pistols." Fan Meng shrugged and said, "You are really lucky to be able to meet a big boss to help you handle these things. "
"You can play with this semi-automatic later." Liang En said, "I remember that there is an area in the ranch that is a shooting range. It seems that the previous ranch owner built it himself."
"Okay, I'm going to play with guns." After carrying the things, Fan Meng used the excuse of playing with guns to leave the underground bunker. After he left, Liang En began to inspect the items that had been shipped all the way from the United States. those antiques.
After getting ready, he first opened the rectangular wooden box containing RB's calligraphy, then took out a scroll and slowly unfolded it, gradually revealing a scroll that had turned brown.
There are not many words on the scroll, only four lines excluding the signature. Fortunately, ancient RB respected Chinese culture very much, so all these texts were written in Chinese instead of Japanese.
"Who can come to the Zen Xu Hall in the south of Xumi is not even worth half a cent?" After reading the words on the paper softly, Liang En showed a thoughtful look.
Although he couldn't see the meaning of what was written on this thing for the time being, he could feel a strong sense of arrogance and some kind of enlightenment hidden under the arrogance.
"The person who can write such a thing must be an eminent monk." Liang En thought about it and looked at the last signature, and finally saw the five words Donghai Junyixiu. "Tōkai Jun Ikkyu...Ikkyu!"
After seeing clearly what was written on the signature, Liang En was alert and then his eyes widened, because even if he was not from RB, he was definitely not unfamiliar with this name.
In order to verify his inner thoughts, Liang En took out his mobile phone and started searching. As a result, he not only found out the specific identity of the person who signed the signature, but also found out what the article was.
Just as he thought before, this Tokai Jun Ikkyu is the Ikkyu brother in the cartoon "Smart Ikkyu" that Liang En watched when he was a child.
There are many stories about him. If you can sum it up briefly, it is that he is an eminent monk similar to the ancient Chinese Taoist monks, that is, the Living Buddha Jigong.
Now that Liang En has obtained this handwriting, it was in 1481 that the eighty-eight-year-old Yixiu wrote a death verse when he was dying.
What Liang En didn't know was that the handwriting appearing here reflected different places in two similar worlds. In the previous world where Liang En was, this handwriting had been preserved in the Pearl Temple in RB Kyoto.
In this world, this handwritten letter was sold in 1944 and has been missing ever since, leaving only a few blurry photos from the 1930s.
The reason for this difference is that in this world, the U.S. bombing of RB at the end of World War II also included Kyoto. The entire city suffered considerable damage, and the fate of a large number of people and objects also changed.
As for the work itself, it mainly embodies the spiritual temperament of tranquility and ease. It is also the final summary and reflection of Zen Master Ikkyu Sect's life of poetry, calligraphy and Zen cultivation.
At that time, Mr. Bruce valued this item at US$70,000 to 80,000. It was most likely because the calligraphy work itself was a niche within a niche, so the other party did not recognize the importance and preciousness of the work at all when valuing it. .
Out of caution, Liang Enshi used a [Appraisal (N)] card. Soon, row after row of tiny words appeared in front of him, and he understood the origin of this handwriting of Master Ikkyu.
[The last handwritten note left by Zen Master Ikkyu before his death. Before the end of World War II, due to large-scale bombing, this handwritten note left the Pearl Monastery and was resold. 】
[After the end of World War II, this important calligraphy and Buddhist work finally left RB and went to the United States after being resold many times, where it has been preserved to this day. 】
And just when these words finally appeared, two cards were exploded. One of them is the common [Detection (N)], while the other one is [Japanese (R)].
[Japanese (R): As a Buddhist master, the biggest impression given by Zen Master Ikkyu is his witty words, through which others can realize the power of Buddhism.
Enhanced card (one-time use), consuming this card will allow the user to master all Japanese listening, speaking, reading and writing from the Heian era to today. 】
"It's not Buddhism." Although Liang En was a little surprised that the cards printed on this work were different from what he imagined, he was also happy to be able to master Japanese fluently.
After all, Master Yixiu is an eminent monk. If the Buddhist teachings he obtained from him this time were particularly profound, Liang En could not guarantee that his will would not be significantly affected and he would become a monk.
After confirming the true identity of the RB calligraphy, Liang En put the calligraphy into the special safe he had bought for a lot of money. And used the [Japanese (R)] card.
Then he solemnly took out the small box containing the gold-plated silver ring from the box, preparing to check the origin of the ring whose origin could not be seen before.
