Now that he had said this, Lin Han realized that it was unnecessary to quibble.
People can see it so clearly. Hiding it is just deceiving yourself and there is no point.
Since Du Rongsheng wants to speak frankly, then come on!
However, to Lin Han's surprise, Du Rongsheng was not angry. Instead, he held up his chin and looked at him with more interest, nodding and praising Lin Han's courageous behavior.
"You are really interesting! If it were someone else, they would not answer like that."
"So..."
"I know what you want to ask. To put it in your words, even if I say I'm not, do you believe me?"
Before Lin Han asked, Du Rongsheng had already answered, which stumped Lin Han.
Right and wrong are all in your heart. It is useless if you don’t believe it even if it is the fact.
"It's about to start!" Du Rongsheng said and walked towards a dozen treasure appraisers.
He didn't have much impression. After all, helping an outsider seemed to be a good intention, and no one dared to say anything.
But it was different for Lin Han. He kept hearing other people's abuse, especially after Du Rongsheng left, the voices became louder.
He understood that if he didn't prove himself today, his life would be ruined and he would never be able to appraise treasures again.
After all, who would dare to let someone who relies on connections to appraise treasures touch those precious treasures?
"Alright, everyone!"
The host's resonant voice brought Lin Han back to reality. Upon closer inspection, he saw a large table in front of the treasure appraisers, on which were three almost identical ink-and-wash landscape paintings.
"Because there are so many people, we will have an elimination match before that. The person who chooses the authentic one among these three can enter the next round."
Listening to the host's words, Lin Han knew that this was a knockout match before the points match. After all, there were indeed too many people coming, and the treasures and cultural relics brought out from the points match would definitely not be enough.
The staff distributed paper and pens to all appraisers, asking them to write down their answers to avoid being seen by others.
But they can discuss with each other, which means they can persuade others verbally and then write down the answers in their own minds.
In this way, many people can be dragged into the water.
Sure enough, there was a strange light in the eyes of those sitting around the table in the arena, and a fierce confrontation began in the blink of an eye.
"This one is definitely authentic. The ink is darker. I have seen an authentic one in a boss's house in the royal city. It has this ink color."
"Then we can only say that the one is fake. After all, you saw one in someone else's house, which means both of them are fakes!"
"Nonsense, how do you know it wasn't bought from someone's home?"
"You are talking nonsense? What evidence do you have to say that this was bought? The chances of it being fake are higher. Any normal person would understand that, right?"
…
Seeing that the situation was escalating and was about to break out into a fight, Lin Han moved closer to watch, because no one cared about him now, and no one would hinder him because they hated him.
Lin Han’s Eye of True Vision opened, and the information about the painting on the left appeared in his mind.
[Lushan Mountain, Wang Meng’s original work, created in 1782, worth 25 million RMB!!]
very good!
Lin Han, who chose the original at first sight, smiled and prepared to write down the left picture on paper.
It’s convenient to have the eye of true vision, as you can easily tell the real from the fake. But it’s not that easy for others, right?
After all, it is difficult for my naked eyes to tell what details are different between the other two paintings.
Lin Han glanced at the people around him with a proud look and found that except for those who were quarreling, everyone was deep in thought, holding a pen and paper, looking at this painting and that painting, undecided.
But some people are not like that, Leng Yue is not one of them. Maybe it’s because she is naturally cold and aloof, like a person with expressionless face, so even if she is nervous, it will not show on her face.
But her hands did not tremble at all, and her eyes were very firm. She was quite confident in her own ability. After scanning the three ink paintings on the mountain, her eyes fell on the ink painting on the right. She quickly wrote something on the paper and then crumpled the paper.
No way? Could it be that the strongest opponent was eliminated in the knockout round? That would be great news.
Lin Han was ecstatic because he knew that the painting on the right was fake. The Eye of True Vision had never made a mistake.
The fact that she finally looked at the painting on the right before writing down the answer means that she chose the one on the right.
Is he incompetent? From ancient times to the present, there has always been a lack of people who deceive the world and steal reputations. Which painting is the original? How can...
When Lin Han thought of this, he casually glanced at the painting on the right, but he was stunned the next second.
[Lushan Mountain, Wang Meng’s original work, created in 1782, worth 25 million RMB!!]
Oh shit!
Lin Han almost screamed out, and quickly covered his mouth to swallow the swear words. The people around him were arguing, which drowned out his voice.
After confirming that no one was looking at him, Lin Han used his true vision to look at the ink painting on the right again.
Because he really didn't believe the information he just received was true. Both paintings were authentic? How could this be possible? He must have been dazzled!
He looked carefully, and the same information appeared in his mind again the next second.
[Lushan Mountain, Wang Meng’s original work, created in 1782, worth 25 million RMB!!]
This made Lin Han puzzled, and he held his chin and fell into deep thought.
How come the two paintings are the same? Is this true? Did Wang Meng draw two paintings himself? Or are they exactly the same? Paintings that are exactly the same must be made based on the original painting, right? That should also be considered a fake, right?
Lin Han didn't understand clearly, so he carefully observed the two ink paintings from all angles. After doing an embarrassing action that no one else had done before and squatting on the ground, he finally found a clue.
From the interface close to the table, it can be seen that the thickness of the rice paper is a bit strange, as if it is a bit thin.
Although wear and tear is normal due to age and preservation reasons, there is another possibility!
Lin Han looked at the ink painting in the middle. It was like a real story. He couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth after seeing the information.
It turned out to be just as I expected.
[Lushan Mountain, Wang Meng’s original work, created in 1782, worth 25 million RMB!!]
Just as he thought, the painting in the middle was also authentic, and the explanation was simple.
The three paintings were indeed real, and there was nothing wrong with the Eye of True Vision. It was just that these three paintings were split into three pieces.
Because water-based ink has stronger permeability than other pigments such as oil coating, in addition to the fabric being absorbent, the thickness must also be high. Otherwise, it will easily seep onto the table and ruin a good painting.
But after it dries, it can be cut. With current technology, it is possible to divide it into three. However, as the penetration of ink gradually weakens, the colors of the three paintings will gradually fade.
If you think about it carefully, it was not mentioned at the beginning that there was only one authentic work. This is misleading, just like giving a multiple-choice question but not telling you that it is a multiple-choice question.
I was tricked!
