Section 173: Loulan Girl (1)
We opened several scattered coffins one after another, and found that there were also male corpses inside, and the quicksand said in great melancholy: "Why are they all some handsome guys from Gu Loulan, why haven't I seen a glimpse of a beautiful woman in Loulan." "This person is quite affectionate, and after such a long time, he still can't forget it, and he said with a lot of thoughts.
Hu Jiaojiao also sighed and said: "Indeed, these Loulan beauties who were very prosperous for a while, but suddenly disappeared mysteriously make everyone curious, what do they look like, they don't have too much historical merits and demerits, just leave the world with a permanent topic of beauty." Gu Loulan itself is a mysterious, dream-like synonym. And the legend of the Loulan beauty, for this already incomprehensible pronoun, is covered with a layer of mystery, a layer of beauty, they only left one moving legend after another, adding a little mystery to their existence. ”
Wang Gongzi also said freely: "There are indeed many legends and stories, according to legend, the Loulan girl has been famous on the Silk Road for a long time, so that the princes and nobles of the Western Regions have married the Loulan girl as their wives. In 326 AD, Zhang Jun, the great warlord who seized Dunhuang, took advantage of the chaos in the world and sent the general Yang Xuan to attack Shanshan. Shanshan Wang Yuanmeng was forced to have no choice but to sacrifice the beauty of Loulan, which quelled the war. This blonde and blue-eyed Loulan girl won Zhang Jun's joy, not only gave her the title of "beauty", but also specially built a palace for her called Bin Yaguan. This story is familiar, you can read "The Book of Jin: The Biography of Zhang Jun".
In the Han Jane unearthed from the Great Wall of the Han Dynasty in Dunhuang, it is also mentioned that the Marquis of Dongye Jiexi and the wife of the Marquis of Yan Qi are Shannu. The Marquis of Yanqi is the King of Yanqi, and when Wang Mang enthroned the throne, all the kings of the Western Regions were demoted to marquis. Therefore, it was written in the late Western Han Dynasty. There is also an ancient tomb of the Western Regions living in the Central Plains accidentally found in Luoyang Pishan, and the epitaph of the second year of the Northern Wei Dynasty (505) said that the owner of the tomb, Yan Yueguang, was the wife of the prince Che Bosheng, the former king of Aunt Che. Du Yueguang's surname is Shan, and she should be a good woman in Shan. "Everyone was very interested in this topic, and they all talked about it.
Xiao Fei also whispered to me: "Do you know that Stein saw the appearance of a beautiful Loulan girl on the 3rd century A.D. Buddhist mural found in Milan, Xinjiang. According to the inscription on the mural, this mural was made by a Greek painter invited by the Central Asian Bactria to name "Titus", which is the same name as the Roman emperor Titus Vespespienas in the first century AD. To paint such a picture, you have to pay 3,000 Maga money, which can be described as a dry gold painting. When Stein first saw the paintings, he was amazed. In his archaeological report, he wrote: "In the midst of the excitement and careful cleaning of them head by head with my bare hands, I immediately understood that among any ancient paintings I had seen in the north and south of the Kunlun Mountains, the composition and tone of these paintings were the closest to the classical style. The wide eyes that were fully open and the flexible gaze, and the expression of the small slightly constricted lips, drew my mood back to the beautiful heads of Greek maidens and young men painted on the plates obtained from the mummy tombs of Ptolemaic and Roman times in Egypt, very beautiful, very beautiful, I wonder if we will have the opportunity to see these ancient frescoes at that time. I was very fascinated and said: "Yes, I can't see the real person, it's not bad to look at the pictures, and it also makes up for everyone's regrets, especially the lovesickness of you gay men." ”
Duan Gongzi also said with a fluttering eyebrow: "This is indeed true, the beauty of Loulan not only makes ordinary people tempted by it, but also makes Buddhist monks lose their souls and fall into the mortal dust, Wei Shu Zuqu Biography tells such a story: Around 420 AD, the Kashmiri monk Tan Wuyu came to Shanshan to spread Buddhism, and was tempted by the beautiful Shanshan princess Mantou Tuolin. He even ignored the ban of Buddhism and had an affair with this Loulan princess. This court scandal was unfortunately exposed, and Tan Wuyu had to flee to Wuwei, Gansu in a hurry. It can be seen that the Loulan girl really has the appearance of a sinking fish and a wild goose, and the appearance of a shy flower and a closed moon. "But I looked at Duan Gongzi with bated breath, and I felt that his lupine scarf was extremely elegant, well-dressed, and the jade tree was in the wind. "I couldn't help but be stunned for a while.
"But isn't that weird?" said Quicksand, loudly puzzled.
"What's so strange?" said the prince.
"As we all know, this ancient Loulan is windy all year round, the wind and sand are wanton, the sun radiation is strong, the natural conditions are not good, not as moisturized as the beautiful Jiangnan, but in such a harsh environment, the Loulan girls are still so beautiful like flowers, like flowers like jade, and the style is outstanding, how do the Loulan girls maintain it? I couldn't help but think of the healthy and ruddy skin of Tibetan girls, and the Loulan beauties wouldn't be like that.
Wang Gongzi shook his head, and said thoughtfully that he didn't know about this, but it was really strange, such a strong wind and sand wanton, they were still so beautiful, it was really hard to explain, and we all fell into deep thought.
