Chapter 843: If You Get a Treasure
Immediately behind Wu Ze was Zeng Xuhui, and when he saw the situation on the platform above for the first time, he immediately shouted: "Wow, color coffin...... Professor Zhang, look at it, there are all colored coffins on this platform. ”
Colored coffin? Zhang Qichen, who was still climbing the steps, was only slightly stunned when he heard Zeng Xuhui shouting, and then he became ecstatic.
"Colored coffin? Where is it? Let me see. Zhang Qichen, who was still climbing the steps, immediately jumped up quickly regardless of the ecstasy, at this moment, he was agile, and he didn't look like an old professor in his sixties at all.
The Western Regions colored coffin that appeared here is a national treasure-level cultural relic, now, where can he be calm?
And Qian Wenxuan, who was following closely behind Zhang Qichen, was also excited when he heard that there was a colored coffin on the platform above, and he followed Zhang Qichen's footsteps and quickly ran up.
If the coffin placed on this platform is indeed a colored coffin in the Western Regions, it is a terrible discovery, how can he fall at such a critical moment?
When the others saw the two of them running up in such a hurry, everyone followed suit, and just like that, everyone rushed to the second platform.
When Zhang Qichen ran to the second platform and saw the coffins on the platform, the expression of surprise on his face was already beyond words.
"Shhh...... These are really Western Regions colored coffins, I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect that so many Western Regions colored coffins would appear here at once. Qian Wenxuan, who ran up with him, gasped for air, and his face burst out with a burst of ecstasy.
The Western Regions colored coffin itself is an incomparably precious cultural relic, which can be said to be a national treasure-level cultural relic.
And now, in front of them, there are rows and rows of colored coffins in the Western Regions, Qian Wenxuan roughly calculated, there are at least nearly twenty colored coffins on this platform.
Twenty Western Regions colored coffins appeared in the same tomb, this situation was unheard of for them, and they were excited, and immediately walked forward.
The surface of these colored coffins in front of me is dominated by vermilion tones, and there are white, yellow, green, brown and other colors on them.
These five colors have a special meaning in ancient times, and if explained by the popular theory of the five elements, white corresponds to the gold in the five elements, and the gold represents change, and from the perspective of life, this is a sign of exhaustion and death. Therefore, the background color of the coffin is white, which means that life declines and returns to nature.
The surface of the coffin is painted with yellow circles, as well as white backgrounds and clouds depicted in brown, green and red, these patterns complement each other, representing the beginning of another new life.
In addition, these coffins are also painted with patterns such as the sun and moon, pomegranate trees, round and square wall patterns, and so on.
The pomegranate tree painted on the coffin is relatively easy to understand, the pomegranate tree was transmitted to the Central Plains from Central Asia through the Silk Road, in ancient times, the pomegranate fruit has many seeds, which symbolizes many children and grandchildren.
In ancient Greek mythology, there is a story of the god of wine being reborn with blood after death, which coincides with the meaning of funeral culture, so in the Western Regions, a place where Chinese and Western cultures collide, it is still understandable that there is a pomegranate pattern on the coffin.
If the pomegranate still has the shadow of Western culture, the sun and moon painted on the coffin and the round and square wall patterns are pure Central Plains culture.
In ancient times, in our Central Plains culture, people believed that the sky was round and the earth was square, and this form of heaven and earth was closely related to the reproduction of human beings.
Therefore, these sun, moon and wall patterns, their meaning is to be with heaven and earth, representing eternity and longevity.
This pattern appears on the colored coffin, which means that these royal family members of the ancient Mi Kingdom hope that the corpses of their ancestors can remain incorruptible for a long time.
"Yes, that's good, these are priceless treasures." Zhang Qichen looked at the colored coffins in front of him happily, and muttered in his mouth.
Qian Wenxuan's face also showed a bit of obsession.
So many rare colored coffins in the Western Regions are a spiritual feast for those of them who have been obsessed with archaeological research all year round, and at this moment, they feel that this trip to the desert is really worth it.
They had smiles on their faces, and then they looked around these colored coffins on this platform, looking east and west, and muttering excitedly in their mouths.
And now, Luo Fatzi's reaction was completely different, although he was excited when he saw this full platform of colorful coffins at the beginning, but after a while, his mind changed.
So many gorgeous colored coffins are placed here, and the discerning person knows at a glance that it is impossible for ordinary people to lie in these colored coffins, whether it is these colored coffins or the things inside the colored coffins, they are all incredible cultural relics, but for Luo Fatzi, this is meaningless at all.
Because he clearly knew that because of the existence of Zhang Qichen and Qian Wenxuan, it was impossible for them to open these colored coffins at this time.
Since these colored coffins cannot be opened, no matter how precious these colored coffins and the things in the colored coffins are, what does it have to do with him? After all, it was impossible for him to secretly take away a colored coffin under everyone's noses.
"Professor Zhang, there are so many colored coffins here, but we don't know who is buried in these colored coffins, should we open a colored coffin to see the situation inside?" Luo Fatzi opened his mouth and asked.
Although Luo Fatzi knew that Zhang Qichen and Qian Wenxuan would not agree to open these colored coffins, he still opened his mouth to ask, whether there are dates or not, it doesn't take much effort anyway.
"Little fat man, those buried in these colored coffins should be important members of the royal family of the ancient Mi Kingdom, but these colored coffins are precious cultural relics, and our current conditions are insufficient, so we can't open them at will." Zhang Qichen replied.
Zhang Qichen's answer was not at all unexpected by Luo Fatzi, he knew that this colored coffin was not so easy to open.
As soon as Zhang Qichen finished speaking, Qian Wenxuan followed without surprise and said: "Yes, fat man, these colored coffins in front of us, whether it is these coffins or the objects in the coffins, they are extremely precious, and we can't move them at will." ”
Hearing Qian Wenxuan say this seriously, Luo Fatzi could only reply curtly: "Senior Brother Qian, I just said it casually, and I didn't really want to open these coffins.
