Treasure Hunt all over the World

After leaving the apartment building, Ye Tian went directly to the subway station.

By the way, I bought a mobile phone and a pair of sunglasses at a store on the side of the road.

The previous phone has been scrapped and thrown away, and a new one is really needed.

Buying sunglasses is to cover up, so as not to be seen to be abnormal when viewing antiques in museums later, it will be a big problem!

When he walked to the subway entrance and was about to enter, he was startled by the sight in front of him and almost fell down the stairs!

I saw the slightly dilapidated subway entrance in front of me. Like yesterday's antique pistol, it exudes a white light, but the light without the pistol is pure and a bit cluttered.

Apparently, the New York subway is also an antique, which is why it shines.

However, due to the different ages of the buildings and the continuous tinkering and repairing, the light appears mixed and inconsistent!

Ye Tian's expression quickly returned to normal, and then he put the sunglasses on his face, so as not to show his feet.

He is not willing to use the perspective function here, time is limited! It would be unwise to waste on a worthless subway.

From the subway station, we arrived at the SC district of Manhattan.

Many luminous objects appeared in Ye Tian's eyes, mainly historical buildings.

He found that as long as the building is more than 50 years old, it will emit white light, but like the subway station, the light is also mixed.

Modern buildings have no light, and although they are beautiful, they are not antiques.

Although it was daytime in Manhattan at this time, in Ye Tian's eyes, the lights were already brilliant. Every few steps he took, he would see a historical building shining with white light.

Fortunately, the white light is very soft and not dazzling, so I can enjoy it all the time, and my eyes will not be tired.

...

half past ten,

Ye Tian was already standing at the entrance of the Metropolitan Museum, queuing up to buy tickets, waiting to enter the museum.

Like other historical buildings, the museum in front of you also emits a whole body of white light, and the brightness is relatively high.

It should be because it was built in 1870, which is relatively early!

Ten minutes later, Ye Tian walked into the gate of the museum with the ticket.

Before he took two steps, a look of shock and even madness flashed in his eyes. Fortunately, he was covered by sunglasses, otherwise it would definitely attract the attention of the security personnel.

What shocked him was the huge statue of the pharaoh standing at the entrance of the Egyptian Pavilion exhibition hall.

When he approached the statue, he immediately saw that the whole body of the statue was glowing, dazzling and very beautiful!

Different from the white light emitted by the historical buildings outside, the pharaoh statue emits purple light, almost black purple!

"Wow-! What's the situation? It's also an antique, how can there be such a big difference?"

Ye Tian's head is full of questions, eager to know the answer, but this is obviously not the place to study the problem, there are too many people! It's impossible to stay for long.

Forcefully suppressing his curiosity, Ye Tian followed the crowd into the Egyptian Pavilion on the first floor.

Why is the light of the pharaoh statue purple? What color are the other antique lights?

Walking into the hall, the shock immediately struck again.

There is a stone statue of a reclining lion from the fifth century BC at the entrance, but the light Ye Tian sees from it is black.

The light from antiques changes again! Why?

Through the introduction of the stone statue of the lying lion and the comparison with the age of the pharaoh statue at the entrance, Ye Tian quickly understood.

The age of the cultural relics is different, and the light emitted is different!

The statue of the pharaoh is about four or five thousand years old, and it emits purple light. The lying lion is a cultural relic from seven thousand years ago, and it emits a black light.

At the same time, Ye Tian also discovered the limitation of the distance of the eyesight ability.

Only if you are within five meters of the antiques can you see their light, and if you go beyond this distance, you will be no different from ordinary people.

After realizing this, Ye Tian suddenly felt a little lost.

This ability is not too great! To be useful only if you are close, it does not mean that you can find antiques that others can't see by just sweeping the streets.

At the same time, he is also a little fortunate that he doesn't have to wear sunglasses to cover up all the time!

If there is no such distance limit, it would be fun!

It’s okay in the United States, the history is not long, and there are not many historical buildings, so the light changes must be limited.

If this is in China, or other countries with a long history, wouldn't the neon lights be flashing all day long, and the eyes should not be blinded!

...

Then Ye Tian began to visit other cultural relics.

The cultural relics here basically have a history of more than 3,000 years, and the light emitted is all purple and black, mostly purple light, and there are differences in color depth.

After a lot of comparisons, he quickly discovered the relationship between the age of the artifacts and the light in the exhibition hall.

During the comparison process, Ye Tian also tried the perspective ability, trying to see the internal situation of the cultural relic.

But he quickly dismissed the idea, at least not willing to try it in this exhibition hall.

The first attempt ended in failure.

What he saw was a sarcophagus, just like the wall he saw last night, his line of sight couldn't penetrate the sarcophagus at all.

Upon discovering this, he immediately retracted his gaze, lest he overdrawn again and fainted here.

The second perspective was a painted mummy wrapped in linen, and this time he succeeded!

But when he saw the petrified bones in the mummy, and the empty chest and abdomen that had been dug out, he was so disgusted that he almost vomited!

He immediately withdrew his gaze, and no longer wanted to see through anything in this exhibition hall, lest he would not be able to eat, or even have nightmares.

Through constant experimentation, Ye Tian gradually figured out some other characteristics of his eyes.

In addition to being able to see the light emitted by cultural relics and see through relatively thin objects, you can also see halos on cultural relics, layer by layer, or less or more. It seems that the greater the artistic value, the thicker the halo. .

This is especially evident in the murals, carvings and other cultural relics that reflect the life scenes of the ancient Egyptians, and the halo of some cultural relics can even reach dozens of layers!

From this, he remembered yesterday's Luger P08, and that pistol also had a lot of white halos, but it was the first time he came into contact with the ability, and he didn't understand what it meant.

And he also found that as long as the perspective ability is not used, the eyes seem to have no energy consumption, and he can always see the light from the antique.

If you use the perspective ability, it is estimated that it is the same as the conclusion drawn before, and it will only be used for ten minutes in total.

So far, Ye Tian has almost figured out the changes in his eyes.

The next thing to do is to see what color light is emitted by the cultural relics of other eras.

If you understand this, you will undoubtedly be the most authoritative antique appraisal expert and art connoisseur! No antiques or works of art can escape your eyes. You can see the authenticity, age, value, etc. at a glance! Ask for anything!

Of course, this can only be hilarious! I can't tell anyone, although a little regret, it will bring myself countless money and honor.

Thinking of this, Ye Tian was so excited that he was about to go crazy.

"Go to his Wall Street! You are kneeling and asking Lao Tzu to go back, and Lao Tzu is not uncommon! With this ability, Lao Tzu can live ten thousand times more wonderfully than before!"

When his mood calmed down a little, he continued to visit the exhibition hall, constantly testing the power of his eyes, and enriching his knowledge of antiques.

He lingered here for nearly an hour, studied it carefully with a learning attitude, and then left, and came to the United States Pavilion not far away.

The light of the antiques changed again. This time, almost all of them were red light, some were orange, and there were very few cultural relics that exuded yellow and green light.

After leaving the American Pavilion, it was already lunchtime. Ye Tian didn't leave, he ate an expensive lunch at the museum restaurant, and then started to visit other exhibition halls.

After visiting the European Pavilion, the Greek Pavilion and the Roman Pavilion on the first floor, he completely understood the relationship between the light and the age of the cultural relics.

Fifty to one hundred years old artifacts appear white, one hundred to three hundred are red, three hundred to five hundred are orange, and five hundred to one thousand are yellow.

One thousand to fifteen thousand is green, fifteen to two thousand is cyan, two thousand to three thousand is blue, three thousand to five thousand is purple, and more than five thousand is black.

The cultural relics at all stages are the same, the colors are from light to dark, and the higher the artistic value, the more halo layers.

The purpose of coming to the Metropolitan Museum has been achieved, and I have basically figured out what I have!

In addition to the perspective ability, Ye Tian also determined a set of unique and most accurate identification methods for antiques and works of art. These abilities will be the foundation for him to survive and thrive in the future.

Next, it's time to appreciate and experience the essence of human culture in the museum!

Since you will often deal with antiques in the future, it is very necessary to know the relevant knowledge, and the museum is undoubtedly the best place to learn this knowledge.

Ye Tian decided to take a certain amount of time every week to come here and the nearby Natural History Museum and Hayden Planetarium to study and accumulate relevant knowledge.

Today, let's relax and enjoy the flowers first.

Soon, Ye Tian came to the RB hall on the second floor.

He has no interest in RB culture. Although he has been to the museum before, he has never entered the RB hall.

The reason why I came in today is to see the famous "Kanagawa Surf Map".

This painting is known as the treasure of the Metropolitan RB Pavilion. It is the work of RB Ukiyo painter Katsushika Hokusai. It was completely blown to the sky by RB people and regarded as a masterpiece!

When he was working in Manhattan before, Ye Tian came into contact with some RB people. Every time they came to New York, they would come to worship this painting like a pilgrimage, boasting to everyone they knew how great and outstanding it was.

Since he came to Metropolis, Ye Tian wanted to see this painting.

He is going to identify it in his own way, and compare it with other famous works to see if it is really like the RB people say, it is a great work, or if the RB people boast!

As expected, this print was surrounded by RB people. While admiring the small paintings, these people kept sighing and praising them, and their expressions were extremely intoxicated!

Ye Tian stood two or three meters in front of the painting, staring at the painting hanging on the wall. Through the power of his eyes, he instantly made a preliminary judgment on the painting.

The painting is unquestionably authentic, with a red glow and a deep colour, befitting the early nineteenth century.

But judging from the number of halo layers on the periphery, the artistic value is not as amazing as RB people boasted.

If nothing else, there are many more outstanding works in the museum, and there are far more halo layers than the one in front of me.

Ye Tian continued to watch. Because of the distance and the small size of the painting, he looked very intently. Under his concentration, he unconsciously used the perspective ability, and his line of sight went directly across the space to see through the print.

This is the third time he has used the see-through ability today since seeing the mummy.

Suddenly, there was a cool and comfortable feeling in my eyes, and it seemed that there was still a hint of joy!

Before he could realize what was going on, an unbelievable picture appeared in Ye Tian's eyes, and he was stunned in place!
