Another mural
I could hear that Nefer had a certain reverence for the people worshiped by the temple between his words, and perhaps in Nefer's mind, the people worshipped by the temple were gods, but this god was probably also human. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info It seems that people have a tendency to deify their ancestors, just as we still can't understand whether the Yellow Emperor is a human or a god. But it doesn't matter, this is also a reflection of a nation's worship and awe of ancestors, and it is the source of the national spirit.
It's just that I didn't expect this kind of worship to be so similar to both ancient China and ancient Egypt.
"You seem to miss that guy a lot?" Strange, why could a man who could be sacrificed in an ancient temple hear a faint thought in Nefer's mouth? Aha, maybe Nefer and the sacrificial man are old acquaintances? Well, that's a bit ridiculous.
"Oh, maybe a little." Nefer turned his back to her and chuckled softly.
"A little? Do you know? She was half tentative, half joking.
"yes." Nefer smiled cheerfully, "We naturally know our gods, and the gods know everything about our world. ”
It's like not answering. But this answer seems to indicate that Nefer is hiding a considerable amount of the problem in the matter. If Nefer really knew the people worshiped in this temple, then did Nefer also have an amazing lifespan like Qian Yi and them? "So, the mural I saw just now is about the miracle of this god?" She asked. Those are not so much "miracles" as "deeds". "What does he have to do with the 'Eye of Horus'? Could it be that this temple is dedicated to a man who was deified as Horus by later generations? ”
"You're a bold idea." Nefer said with some surprise, "Are you denying the divinity of Horus?" Don't forget, Pharaoh claimed to be the reincarnation of Horus. ”
I also claim to be the reincarnation of Avalokiteshvara! Isn't that what you mean by "self-proclaimed"? "I'm not denying the divinity of Horus, I'm just speculating on the origin of this temple." She explained.
"The way you think is really beyond my expectations." Nefer smiled haughtily, "Maybe you'll also have a chance to meet the legendary 'Eye of Horus' and gain the ability to resurrect from the dead." ”
Hearing this, she had a bad premonition. Then again, what is she going to do with the ability to come back from the dead? Do you do Jesus Christ? "Yirou, they will also get to the place where the 'Eye of Horus' exists?" She asked.
"Yes, after all, your friend led the way." Nefer said casually.
I don't know how many years ago, someone from the Xuanyuan family went to find the "Eye of Horus" through the secret passage she is walking now, and left Fuxi characters on the road, but why didn't she tell the patriarch of that era about the secret passage at that time? And why didn't they take it with them? "How do you know there's a way? Even Shi Xiao only deduced the location of the thing from a sketch of the ruins. ”
"I'm Egyptian." When Nefer said this, his back straightened.
"So you know something that we outsiders who aren't Egyptians can't understand?" Cultural differences? Perhaps cultural differences are indeed insurmountable gaps, but for people like Shi Xiao who focus on the study of ancient Egyptian culture, is there really such a big gap?
Nefer didn't answer her question, and for some reason there was a sense of oppression and momentum coming from the figure with his back to her. She kept wondering what was the origin of this seemingly ordinary researcher working at the institute? At least now she has a completely different aura than when they first met.
- It's useless to think too much, just listen to me obediently now.
The ghost of the female pharaoh reappeared at some point, and spoke coldly beside her.
What's going on? The ghost of the female pharaoh appears and disappears for a while, is it possible that the brain waves are also unstable? Or is it her own problem, not being able to sense the presence of the female pharaoh consistently? But where exactly do the brain waves come from? The female pharaoh always appears at the same time as Nefer, could it be that Nefer is carrying something that stores the female pharaoh's brain waves?
But judging from her observations, Nefer didn't even wear jewelry all over her body, could it be that the thing that stored the brain waves this time was not in the form of gemstones, but clothes belts or something? Tsk, she's going to be confused.
After walking for a long time, Nefer in front of him stopped. Have you arrived at your destination?
In front of them was a wall painted with vivid murals. This is a typical ancient Egyptian mural, but the content does not look like it depicts scenes of ancient Egyptian life. Judging from the mural at the top, it depicts an animal with a human body and a fishtail carrying a shiny giant egg breaking through the waves. The frescoes below depict a man in a white robe with a corona on his head emerging from a giant egg—a figure that is usually a deity in ancient Egyptian frescoes. By the way, it is written in ancient Egyptian mythology that a primordial egg floated on the Nile one day, and under the hatching of the god heron, the supreme god of Egypt was born, the sun god Ra, and the god of the heron later became the god of wisdom and writing, Thoth.
Could it be that this mural is a comic strip about Egyptian mythology in ancient times? Hahaha, wouldn't it? In that case, the comic book publishing project would be a huge one.
"Look at the painting." Nefer handed her the flashlight, "You can see what that means, right?" This is the story that the people who were sacrificed in that temple left us. ”
"You don't want to tell me that this is his life, do you?" No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like the life of a normal person...... This is a temple, not a burial chamber. The murals in the tomb show the life on the other side, which is actually a mirror of the life of the present world. So what the temple murals show is the miracle of the gods?
In the mural at the bottom, a man in a white shirt sits on a throne with blue ripples, followed by a creature with a blue face with a fishtail and a human body, just like the creature holding the giant egg at the top. Horus, who holds the symbol of eternal life in his hand, speaks of those who are prostrate on the ground behind him, leading to those who are on the throne.
Here is Horus, the man of the eagle head! But this Horus seems to have appeared out of thin air, what is the relationship with the man who was born from the giant egg? Judging from the content of this painting, He is supposed to be the contact between the people and those on the throne.
However, nowhere do these murals depict the "Eye of Horus". "What the hell is going on with these murals?" She looked up and down the huge mural, the colors were still bright, the picture was rich and vivid, and time seemed to have left no trace on it, which reminded her of the proverb "Man is afraid of time, and time is afraid of the pyramid". It seems that time will still be afraid of the murals of ancient Egypt!
"How long do you think this is a mural from back ago?" Nefer looked up, his voice trembling with excitement.
"How do I know? Maybe it was 3,000 years ago? "That was the time of the female pharaoh.
Nefer's expression was full of excitement, and she whispered something, but she couldn't make out or understand what it was. Is it the first time Naifel has seen these frescoes, or is he reunited with them after a long absence?
"The last time I saw this mural was a long, long time ago." Nefer had already turned his head and said to her, "The man who made me see this mural gave me what I am now. ”
Yes? People who study ancient Egyptian culture also work part-time plastic surgery?
"Behind this wall is the path to the Eye of Horus." Nefer said.
"That'...... Where's the door? She was stunned for a moment. She's not a ghost, she can walk through walls! said that she could only hit the wall. "We're not going to smash the walls of such a great mural again, are we?" Tsk tsk, this is really a sin.
"How is that possible?" Nefer seems to have known how to get through this wall, "As long as you're there, it's no problem to open this wall." ”
"Me?" She's a photographer, not a wall-smashing decorator!
