The Return of the South China Sea Chapter 2 King Qin looks at the bone mirror
Professor Chan said, "Oh, you know? Okay, I really can't see Xiaohu Xiaochuan...... You all have such a high ideological consciousness, then I will not go around in circles, we have many national treasures in China have been lost overseas, when I and my old classmate Yang Xuanwei, every time I think of this, we have to be sad, I recovered from my illness and lived in the United States for a period of time, during this period, I came into contact with some scholars and overseas Chinese in the United States, some of whom are engaged in antique collection and appreciation, and learned an earth-shattering thing from their mouths. ”
Then Professor Chen talked about the ins and outs of this matter, there was a legend in the past, Qin Shi Huang was on a southern tour during his reign, on the way, he saw someone salvaged a floating corpse on the beach, this male corpse is an old man, tall and different from ordinary people, good looks, long hair over the chest, white skin, flesh as hard as iron, wearing the clothes of the ancient king, floating in the sea for a long time, I don't know how long it has been, and I don't know the cause of its origins and death, but it still looks like life, there is no sign of being soaked in the sea for a long time, a gust of sea breeze blows, the ancient corpse is flying, It's the same as a living person.
Qin Shi Huang thought that this ancient corpse was the remains of the immortals in the sea, and should be sacrificed and enshrined, in order to ask the immortals to give immortal medicine, but others held the opposite view, Qin Shi Huang has always been superstitious in cultivating immortals and alchemy, he has many monks, and the monks all think that this is the ancient zombie, which is the monster, must have emerged from the eyes of the South China Sea, and it is ominous to see it, talking about worshipping and seeking medicine, and then said when this thing has appeared, symbolizing what kind of omen, how to deal with it is the proper way.
In the Qin Dynasty it is not easy to be a scholar to eat mixed rice, most of the ancient people are relatively simple, a little able to speak, that is, regarded as a talented and eloquent ability, want to be the emperor's adviser The first ability is to be able to Kan, and the dead can be lived, Qin Shi Huang is not a person with soft ears, but he can't stand this group of people to say as if it were true, plus he is convinced of these mysterious and mysterious things, worried that the zombies in the eyes of the sea will have a sign of the death of the country, since it can't be added to the fire knife and axe, only the cave can be hidden, so he ordered 30,000 prisoners to dig through a barren mountain to bury the corpse, A bronze beast was cast and pressed on the zombie Shangzhen Mountain, and the "Qin King Bone Mirror" in the Eight Mirrors of King Qin was embedded in the beast's head, and finally the mountain was closed.
During the Qin and Han dynasties, the world generally believed that the bronze mirror could suppress zombies, because the people at that time were looking at the mirror to be "upright", to see if their expressions were solemn and solemn, whether the clothes and hats were neatly dressed, if the clothes and hats were worn crookedly, they had to hurry up, so the bronze mirror was a representative of "positive", a positive can suppress all evils, and the mirror also represented "yang", which was a symbol of the day and a deterrent to "yin".
King Qin swept ** to determine the world, in the process got a lot of secret weapons of the Six Kingdoms, including eight ancient mirrors, including the Legalist ancestor bronze mirror, as well as the King of Qin's bone mirror, legend has it that this bronze mirror can look at the human body bone vein, is a rare priceless treasure in the world, Qin Shi Huang buried this bone mirror together with the ancient corpse in the sea.
Qin Shi Huang died soon after returning to Xianyang, as for where the Qin King was buried in the bone mirror, it became a mystery through the ages, its whereabouts no longer anyone knows, things change and the stars change, until the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, someone was collecting medicine on the mountain, and suddenly saw five dragons fighting around a hill in the air, and finally the five dragons died, and the dragon corpse fell from the sky, but there was no dead dragon at the place where the dragon fell, only a big ditch cracked on the ground.
The herb picker panicked, told the nearby villagers about this matter, everyone rushed to watch, only to see a huge thing in the ditch squirming out, everyone was shocked, thought that there was a mountain ghost as a harm, so set fire to it, after the fire from the ditch to get a copper giant beast, the head of the turtle body, the head of the horns, the body is a turtle shell, and there are seven tails, the tail end of the skull is not counted, the shape is ugly, the upper abundance and the lower killing, the beast head is crowned with a simple bronze mirror, someone dedicated it to the reigning son of heaven Song Huizong at that time.
There are well-informed ministers to Emperor Huizong, saying that this ancient mirror is the pre-Qin thing, is the history of the Qin King bone mirror, this thing is the Qin Dynasty demon control vessel, the demon atmosphere is difficult to get rid of for a long time, it is not suitable to stay in the forbidden, should be returned to the original place, according to the ritual system to re-bury and restore the state, but Song Huizong regarded this mirror as a treasure, refused to give up, has stayed by his side to enjoy, soon after, the golden soldiers and iron cavalry went south to destroy the Northern Song Dynasty, captured the second emperor of the Song Dynasty, the Qin King Zhao bone mirror is missing again.
Qin Shi Huang Nanxun met the ancient corpse on the seaside, this is a wild history legend, may not be able to be taken seriously, but the Qin King bone mirror in the history books has a clear record, later generations of scholars believe that this bone mirror, is likely not a bronze mirror, but a very special substance, can see through the human body, if that is the case, some of the history of science and technology will be rewritten, just like some of the Han Dynasty royal secret weapons mentioned in the "Book of Han", some of these things, may even be the earliest radioactive materials discovered by human beings, if the real thing can be found now, It is enough to shock the whole world, but unfortunately this thing is the same as many ancient Chinese treasures, no one knows its whereabouts, since there is no physical object, it can only let future generations with a few lines of ink in the ancient books of the imagination, sighing aftertaste, leaving a lot of regrets and sighs.
In the later invasion of the Eight-Nation Alliance, the "King of Qin's Bone Mirror" appeared in the world again, but unfortunately this time it was looted by the British from the people, and it was exiled to India after several rounds, until the end of this year, and another rich man from Southeast Asia paid for it, because it was smuggled out, so it was by sea, but when the ship sailed to the high seas, it encountered a storm, deviated from the course and was buried at the bottom of the sea with the King of Qin's bone mirror.
Hundreds of passengers and crew on board the ship, almost no survivors, the storm continued for several days, causing complete paralysis of communications, the sea search and rescue work was very difficult, the wreck site could not be found at all, only a general direction, that sea area is close to the unfathomable South China Sea, is a three-way area, the locals call it a "coral spiral" with dense reefs.
I have already understood this when I hear this, this is a serious shipwreck accident that happened at that time, we have also heard about it a while ago, since the bone mirror of King Qin sank with the ship, it would be good to find a professional salvage team to fish, I don't know what Professor Chen wants us to do in such a big circle.
Professor Chen said that he would not go any further, he might want to see how I reacted, but except for Shirley Yang, who listened very carefully, the rest of the people did not respond, and the atmosphere seemed a little awkward, I pretended to be careless, and glanced at the fat man and the big gold tooth, the two of them just ate and drank as if they hadn't heard, they obviously didn't want to meddle in any drudgery that had no oil and water to fish.
After all, the relationship between us and Professor Chen is extraordinary, if it weren't for his approval, I wouldn't be where I am today, and it would be impossible for me to know Shirley Yang, and Shirley Yang is like Professor Chen's biological daughter, so no matter what Professor Chen's purpose is, we have to cheer up, and we must give the old man enough face.
I hurriedly said to everyone: "Professor Chen is worthy of being a professor, with you is a long knowledge, today we are making up for an important lesson in history, I read the "Book of Changes" a few times, I feel that I am quite cultured, but with you more contact I know what is the endless learning, I feel that I am a small sesame in front of the big watermelon of history, today I listen to you like this, it is a pity that this Qin King looks at the bone mirror, otherwise put in the museum to let the people and Hong Kong and Macao compatriots, overseas Chinese and foreign guests, You can stretch your arms and kick your legs in front of you to take a photo, how exciting it is, but it's not bad to fall into the sea, stay there to take a picture of the mermaid or something, antiquities have spirituality, maybe one day it will let the sea water wash back. ”
As I spoke, I stepped on the fat man under the table, and asked him to quickly say a few words, and the fat man was stepped on by me, and he was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood my intentions, he wiped his mouth and raised a big thumbs up to Professor Chen: "High, really high!" When I dream back in the middle of the night, I often look at my soul and ask myself, did man's right mind fall from the sky? Of course not, for example, if Old Man Chen hadn't read the four volumes of Xiongwen well, it would be impossible for him to quote scriptures and sentences like this, and the words would be deafening for three days, what does this mean? This is the result of learning, so we must study more and read more books in the future, review the old and learn the new, re-take the Long March road, and learn the old three articles. ”
Seeing this, Professor Chen nodded his head and smiled with satisfaction: "I really didn't misunderstand you, Bayi and Xiaopang, as well as the second child of the Jin family, don't look at you who have been delayed by ten years of turmoil before, and you haven't officially gone to school, but you see that this eloquence is no worse than that of me as a professor, and more importantly, you not only have the eloquence that is not inferior to that of a diplomat, but also have the courage and courage of an explorer, so I often say that the real capable people are in the people." ”
As soon as I heard this, I further confirmed my suspicion, as the saying goes: "People don't ask for people to be as tall as they are", and before I could say anything, a tall hat was buttoned up first, what not only has the eloquence of a diplomat, but also has the courage of an explorer, this hat is also a little bigger, how big must this be for us to do? But I really can't figure out what we can do to salvage the shipwreck, our gang is a golden captain who searches the mountains and rivers to find ancient tombs, but there is really nothing we can do about the sea.
It's so going around and around makes people anxious, so I just made the words clear: "Professor, we are not relatives than relatives, I don't see you outside, I can say what I think of, King Qin has sunk to the South China Sea according to the bone mirror, my mood is as anxious as you, but we don't have any ability, I just know a little bit of feng shui, and I have no power on this matter, although I grew up on the beach in Fujian, and I have also been to the sea with a boat, but I have never been to the far sea, and the vast sea is not within our reach. And it is by no means so simple to salvage something like such a large ship, not to mention that even the place where the wreck can not be found, that is not equivalent to looking for a needle in a haystack, even if a foreign professional salvage organization, I am afraid that it will not be able to solve the problem overnight, I heard that a British diving company and the government cooperated to salvage the gold on the sunken ship, it has been fishing for nearly ten years, and it has just completed the preliminary work. ”
