"Damn, it won't be such a big scene, right?"
Zhuang Rui looked at the helicopter hovering in the sky, looking for a landing site, and was stunned, isn't this an American blockbuster like Scorpion King, as for dispatching the military?
If it weren't for seeing Peng Fei sitting in a helicopter waving to himself, maybe Zhuang Rui would have thought that this was a movie. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Erdan, Xiao Yan, take a good look at the books in the hall, I'll go out and take a look......"
After Zhuang Rui glanced at Nakamika, he ordered the two of them, and then followed the helicopter out of the poplar forest, waving his hand upwards to signal that the helicopter could land.
"Fuck, what's wrong with me? Wait until they land, ......."
The helicopter slowly landed not far from Zhuang Rui, and the propeller drove the yellow sand on the ground to form a small whirlpool, wrapping Zhuang Rui's whole person inside.
After the helicopter was completely stopped, Zhuang Rui simply became a sand man, not to mention that his face was covered with a layer of yellow sand, and even his nostrils and ears were also blocked with sand.
Zhuang Rui jumped on the spot for a long time, and after shaking off the yellow sand on his body, he just saw Peng Fei coming up from the helicopter, and hurriedly grabbed him and asked, "Stinky boy, how did you find it here?"
This desert is connected to the Gobi Desert in the north, the area is very large, it is not an exaggeration to call it a sea of sand, and the terrain in the desert is changeable, even if there is a fierce man in the air to guide the way, I am afraid it is easy to deviate, it is Zhuang Rui did not expect that they would actually take a helicopter over.
According to Zhuang Rui's estimation in advance, Peng Fei and the others' camel team will have to wait for two more days to arrive.
"Brother Zhuang, didn't I leave you the satellite phone, wouldn't it become a ...... to lock the signal?"
Peng Fei pursed his lips and despised Zhuang Rui very much, what age is this, and he doesn't even understand such basic electronic common sense?
"You kid knows a lot, bring the water, I'll rinse my mouth......"
Zhuang Rui knocked on Peng Fei's head angrily, picked up Peng Fei's military kettle and rinsed his mouth, and then said: "As for making such an exaggeration, isn't it just an ordinary archaeology, even the military plane has been moved out, Peng Fei, you kid won't be looking for my eldest brother, right?"
Zhuang Rui thought that Peng Fei was afraid that he would have an accident in the desert, so he found the military to borrow a helicopter, although it is a common thing to send troops to assist in archaeological work, but it is not possible for ordinary people to dispatch equipment such as helicopters.
Before Peng Fei could answer, a voice sounded behind him: "It's not an exaggeration at all, I called this helicopter, Xiaozhuang, do you know what the advent of Dunhuang documents represents?"
"Teacher, you're here too......"
As an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences elected last year, Professor Meng could ask the local garrison to assist him in his archaeological work, and it was reasonable to call in military helicopters.
Behind Professor Meng, there were several familiar faces of Zhuang Rui, all of whom were well-known experts in archaeology and history in China.
"Okay, don't engage in those false things, Xiao Ren said that there are still two Buddha statues that have not been broken, let's go, hurry over and take a look......"
Professor Meng couldn't see a few people talking over there, so he grabbed Zhuang Rui and walked in the direction of the poplar forest, and said as he walked: "Zhuang Rui, these Dunhuang documents have gone through more than ten dynasties such as the Three Kingdoms, the Two Jin Dynasty, the Northern Wei Dynasty, the Western Wei Dynasty, the Sui Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty, the Five Dynasties, and the Northern Song Dynasty, covering dozens of disciplines, and the popularity of handwritten scrolls has also given birth to the largest calligraphy group in the history of Chinese calligraphy, the Jingsheng, forming a calligraphy school - the Jingsheng body.
These important discoveries, whether it is a dynastic investigation of some gaps in history, or the filling of some archaeological mysteries, are crucial, and missing one book is a crime against the country......"
Zhuang Rui didn't know that after Professor Meng received a call from Dr. Ren in Beijing a few days ago, he fell off his chair in excitement, and even booked a ticket from Beijing to Dunhuang overnight.
Even with the rare natural landscape of dead poplar forests in front of him, Professor Meng walked directly in the direction of the temple with his eyes intent, and he had already seen the direction clearly when he was on the helicopter just now.
Zhuang Rui was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and while walking through the poplar forest with the teacher, he asked strangely: "I haven't ......heard of calligraphy?"
Zhuang Rui knows that most of the scriptures unearthed in the Dunhuang Zangjing Cave are manuscripts, but basically they are based on official scripts and regular scripts, and calligraphy such as the famous thin gold body in later generations has not been heard.
"Zhuang Rui, it's okay to calm down and practice calligraphy, you will know the influence of Dunhuang calligraphy......"
Professor Meng looked at Zhuang Rui and shook his head, to say that Zhuang Rui's antique jade appreciation is definitely a master-level figure in China, due to the excavation of Liu Xiu's tomb, Zhuang Rui can be regarded as quite a achievement in archaeology.
But for some very basic common sense knowledge, Zhuang Rui often makes jokes, Professor Meng is also puzzled, Zhuang Rui doesn't know anything about qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, but why can he identify the authenticity of objects?
Professor Meng was obviously very interested, and then said: "Zhuang Rui, do you know whose characters I found in those scriptures that Xiao Ren shipped out first?"
"Whose writings?
Zhuang Rui really doesn't know much about calligraphy, ancient calligraphers know Wang Xizhi, Wang Xianzhi, Zhang Xu, Huaisu and Yan Zhenqing and others, as for modern times, except for the teacher of the golden fat man, Zhuang Rui is eyes black.
"Of course, from just an oiled paper bag, I found thirty volumes of Caosheng's hand-copied scriptures, do you know, even in the Dunhuang documents scattered abroad, there are only a few volumes......
Professor Meng was obviously extremely excited, waving his hands as he spoke, Professor Meng had been writing calligraphy since he was a child, although it was not as high as the master's status in the calligraphy world, but there was still a sense of appreciation for calligraphy.
"Zhang Xu......? That's worth the money......"
Zhuang Rui was stunned for a moment when he heard this, he didn't expect that there was this master's handwriting in this Dunhuang document, out of habit, Zhuang Rui couldn't help but ponder the price of Zhang Xu's works, but after thinking about it for a long time, it seems that he has not heard that Zhang Xu's works have been auctioned.
"You...... You kid, you don't learn and don't know ......."
After Professor Meng heard Zhuang Rui's words, he accidentally tripped over the dead branches of poplar under his feet, and simply stopped, looked at Zhuang Rui and said, "The grass saint I am talking about is not Zhang Xu, but Zhang Zhi......"
Zhuang Rui's face was a little confused, and he shook his head and said, "Zhang Zhi, haven't you heard of ......?"
"You...... I see you go back and study with undergraduates for a while, even Zhang Zhi doesn't know about ......"
Professor Meng couldn't laugh or cry at his proud disciple, so he had to sweep Zhuang Rui's blindness and briefly explain Zhang Zhi's life.
Zhang Zhi, mentioned by Professor Meng, is a famous calligrapher in the Eastern Han Dynasty and a native of Dunhuang, Gansu.
Zhang Zhi lived in the period, the slow and wavy Lishu and the words with independent meaning of the chapter grass, have been unable to meet people's needs, Zhang Zhi on the basis of inheriting the chapter grass, get rid of the old customs, original unity, is for cursive!
The sage Wang Xizhi has to be humble to Zhang Zhi for three points, he once said such a sentence "Zhong Zhangxin is superb, and the rest is not enough to view", that is to say, ancient and modern calligraphy, Wang Xizhi only put Zhong Xuan and Zhang Zhi in his eyes.
In the history of Chinese calligraphy, Zhang Zhi and Huaisu reflect before and after, representing the two monuments of the flourishing period of cursive writing in the Han and Tang dynasties, it can be said that Wang Xizhi, Wang Xianzhi, Zhang Xu, Huaisu four masters, their teachers are derived from the first giant in the history of Chinese calligraphy - the grass sage Zhang Zhi.
It's just that the era in which Zhang Zhi lived was still earlier than Wang Xizhi and others, and there were very few authentic works handed down, even on several foreign suspected manuscripts of Zhang Zhi, there was no signature of his own, and people outside the calligraphy world had not heard much of his name.
While waiting for the military helicopter, Professor Meng roughly sorted out the hand-copied scriptures, but accidentally found Zhang Zhi's works, and at that time he was simply treating these authentic works of grass saints with a pilgrimage mentality.
After introducing Zhang Zhi's situation, Professor Meng said with emotion: "Xiaozhuang, I'm sure that if that master in Beijing sees Zhang Zhi's handwriting, he will be blinded by death......
Zhuang Rui knows who Professor Meng is talking about, the master is 98 years old this year, although Zhuang Rui will visit the old man from time to time to help him comb his body, but his aura is not omnipotent, the old man's health is getting worse, and it is estimated that it will be very difficult to live this winter.
While speaking, a group of people led by Professor Meng had already entered the ancient temple, and when they saw the ancient books that had been opened and put back into the oil paper by Zhuang Rui, Professor Meng hurriedly put on gloves and looked at them.
After a long time, Professor Meng raised his head, gently rubbed the scroll with his hand, and said with emotion: "I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, in the desert yellow sand, so many precious cultural relics can be preserved, this is really quicksand to cover Hanmo agarwood......"
Zhuang Rui said with a smile when he heard this: "Teacher, what you said has a meaning......
"Xiaozhuang, the teacher wants to thank you, if it weren't for you, the teacher might not have seen these Dunhuang documents submerged in the desert yellow sand in his life......
When Professor Meng spoke, he actually stood up and bowed to Zhuang Rui, so frightened that Zhuang Rui hurriedly let go and waved his hand, and said, "Don't, teacher, students can't afford it, these are all discovered with Senior Brother Ren and Xiao Jia......"
"Your names will be remembered for generations to come......"
Professor Meng looked at Zhuang Rui with satisfaction and said, "Okay, you pack up these scrolls on the ground, everyone prepare, open the other two Buddha statues, and see if there are any scriptures inside?"
