Volume 1 Quicksand Divine Silk Chapter 24 Blue Wolf White Deer Porcelain
The fat man rushed to the bottom of the stone pillar with a double-barreled shotgun and said, "This grandson... It's pretty fast, so it's best not to let me meet me next time! ”
As the monster fled, everyone had chased under the stone pillar, and although the thing had now disappeared in front of our eyes, there was no guarantee that it would not suddenly appear again to attack us, and several of them cautiously looked around with their guns in their hands.
"Let that thing escape, it might be tricky if we meet it next time." You Hanshan took the folding fan back into the cloth bag, turned on the flashlight in his hand and looked at the top of the tomb.
I suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said, "The ancient spirit hasn't appeared yet, is something wrong?" ”
You Hanshan should be the one who knows the ancient spirit best among us, but when I asked like this. He didn't react at all.
Qi Li said: "Miss Gu should be fine, maybe she was temporarily held back by something, with her skills, I don't think there is anything that can be her opponent." Qi Li's evaluation of Gu Ling can be said to be very high, and she is simply compared to a high "god".
"Then we'll just wait here for her to come back, what are you worried about?" The fat man patted the dust off his ass and shook his head at me.
I think there is only this way for the time being, if we go back to find out the situation, it will become a burden to the ancient spirits, "We can't wait, before the ancient spirits come back, we will take a look in this hall now." ”
There were no longer a few lamps that were devoured by the monster just now, and the light in the entire tomb was much dimmer than at the beginning, and in order to observe the entire tomb well, everyone turned on the light source on their bodies.
The whole burial chamber became much brighter under our light source, and when it was illuminated in all directions, it could be said that it was a majestic and gorgeous treasure hall in front of us, and the main hall was supported by twenty-four milky white stone pillars, which was extremely strong and magnificent.
There is a lamp tray on one side of the twenty-four stone pillars less than two meters away, because it was swallowed by the monster before, there are only a handful of lamps left, and I don't know how this lamp suddenly lit up at that time, and the scope of illumination is also incredible, one is worthy of several oil lamps in eight years.
The top of the main hall is a dome like an umbrella cover, inlaid with gold and blue glazed tiles, and covered with neat cloud patterns, which makes it seem that the top of the whole hall can be said to be splendid, and the east and west halls feel slightly lower than the front hall, and the steps on both sides are downward. I thought to myself that what we were looking for along the way should be within this hall of the Great Majesty.
The front hall of the entire hall was covered with a relatively deep layer of dust, and it could be said that it was almost intact before the monster rushed out just now. The area of the whole front hall is about hundreds of square meters, in addition to the milky white stone pillars around, the front hall is next to the stone wall around the position, there are also various totem statues of different sizes, a total of twelve.
I saw that those totems looked a little weird, and I wanted to go over and see it clearly when I turned on the flashlight, and the fat man shouted on the side: "What is so beautiful about that thing, and it looks quite bumpy." After saying that, the fat man walked towards the front of the main hall, trying to find out if there were any treasures.
"Be careful, don't touch it." The fat man ignored me.
Mi Li on the side seemed to be very interested in those totems, so he went with me to the totem closest to us, You Hanshan walked in the direction of the fat man, and the remaining one of Kentmore, who did not speak our language, stayed in place to take care of Professor Zhou who was unconscious.
I and Li Li walked to the totem and looked up and down, the totem in front of me was more than one person high, and there was a mural on the stone wall behind each totem, the totem in front of us was simply carved and polished by hand, and it was not painted with a variety of colorful paints like the murals on the stone wall.
On closer inspection, this totem is carved with a blue wolf and a plant, the blue wolf leaps and hovers upward, the whole wolf occupies the highest position, and the side at the foot is a very strange plant, which has never been seen.
"Do you know what the plants are on here?" I looked at Mi Li to the side and asked.
Qi Li half-squatted and put his hand on the totem and groped repeatedly, shook his head and said: "This should be the wolf poison flower, but it is not the same as the wolf poison flower, I am not sure." ”
As the name suggests, the roots, stems and leaves of the wolf poison flower contain toxins, but they can also be made into agents for external application, which can eliminate the accumulation of blood and clear blood, and can also be used as a pesticide to control aphids and borers. It's just that people and animals can't eat it, otherwise they will die of poison in a few moments.
On the mural behind the wolf totem, there is a narrative picture painted by multicolored paint, I touched it with my hand, there seems to be a special layer of clear material on it, but this is also reasonable, after the Tang Dynasty, basically this kind of clear material will be used to prevent the fading and peeling of the mural.
In the painting, there is a domineering man wearing a helmet and armor, a majestic demeanor stands next to a white wolf riding a red horse, on both sides are thousands of horses galloping, a cruel war is being waged, looking at the costume and its momentum, it must be Genghis Khan, and in the hands of this man with the spirit of an emperor holds a long arrow chain blade about a foot long, and the front seat is a weapon with a black stallion's mane.
Then I and Li went to the totems in other places and compared them with the blue wolf totems just now, and found that except for the fact that they were all carved by another animal and a plant, all other places were different.
We quickly went through all the totems, and I stood in front of the last totem and said, "It seems that the number and pattern are very much in line with the description of shamanism." ”
Qi Li said: "What did you find? ”
"There are a total of twelve totems here, each totem is completely different, with a plant and animal attached to it, in the Mengyuan period, there were twelve Duvalan gods sacrificed in shamanic ceremonies, and each Duvalan god is twelve animals that inhabit twelve kinds of plants."
Qi Li continued: "I still can't figure out why these totems are placed in the main hall. ”
I looked at the dome of the main hall, and then carefully looked at the murals on the stone wall behind the totem, "Probably related to their thoughts, on the murals behind each totem, they are narrating different wars, and the similarity of those murals is that there is a corresponding animal on the totem next to Genghis Khan, and the animals seem to be infused with spiritual intelligence, as if they all have the soul of the so-called human being, which is very similar to the soul of reincarnation in the soul concept of shamanism at that time." ”
"Are you saying that these murals and totems are telling about the source of Genghis Khan's power and the shamanic religion?" Qi Li looked at the mural in front of him.
"Maybe, maybe not, after all, these things are only heard, not seen, who can tell." I sighed and continued, "Let's go, we've all seen these things pretty much, go see You Hanshan and them." ”
Qi Li and I walked like this, and said that the main hall was no longer there, until we walked to the apse, and we saw You Hanshan and the fat man walking around in the hall, "Fat man, what are you looking for?" ”
The fat man didn't look back and agreed: "Looking for a baby, although Xiao Lobby said that these things are very valuable, but these things are too big, not easy to take and not easy to shoot, I am looking for something delicate and valuable." "I thought to myself, how long has it been since you two came in, and you called Xiaoyou Xiaoyou.
In the apse, although the coverage area is not as majestic as the main hall, the furnishings in the hall are very dense, and the most breathtaking thing is that there are several golden pillars embedded in the inner side of the hall, under the illumination of the flashlight, bursts of golden light are flashed, which is very tempting.
"Fatty, why don't you get those golden pillars, it's convenient to shoot." I looked at the fat man and smiled.
"There is gold in any age, no matter how valuable it is, it is not as valuable as the treasure of nearly a thousand years, boy, don't want to be fooled by your fat master and me."
I didn't expect that the fat man was actually quite smart, and if there was a good jade of nearly a thousand years on an object of the same size, it would naturally be higher than the value of gold.
I walked towards the fat man and looked around, there were dozens of shelves on both sides of the hall, all made of jade, I don't know if the fat man had taken it before, there were a few shelves that were empty, and I walked to one of the tables, "Fatty, why don't you take this?" ”
The fat man turned his head and glanced at the thing in my hand, "Isn't it just a plate, what is there to take." ”
The fat man didn't know that the artifact in my hand was Yuan blue and white porcelain, I wiped the dust on it, the Yuan Dynasty blue and white porcelain is roughly divided into two forms, one of which is blue for flowers, white for the ground, with good blue and white raw materials directly painted on the white carcass.
And the other is to set off the white pattern with a verdant blue background, with blue and white as the ground, this blue and white porcelain in my hand belongs to the latter, under the careful touch, the inner feeling of the plate is flat, in this blue and white porcelain plate inside and outside are painted with multiple layers of blue and white patterns, the center of the porcelain plate is used to set off a blue wolf and white deer, the whole composition is rigorous, it can be said that it is rare in the world.
The fat man saw me holding this plate and looked at it for a long time, "What is it really a good thing?" ”
"A plate of fruit is not as valuable as the golden pillar next to you." I shook my head and sighed deliberately.
As a graduate of archaeology, if I hand over this thing to the fat man to carry, if there is any damage on the way, I will really be sorry for the ideological education I have received for many years, and for me, I will feel very guilty and guilty in my heart, it is better to let this thing stay here, take some others, and wait until the day when I see the light of day again, maybe it can be better protected, thinking about it, I put the blue and white porcelain in my hand back in the distance.
