Chapter 2 Tibetan poems

A somewhat cracked but well-preserved stone relief appeared before me, like this rectangular monolithic relief of about twenty square meters in size, which is rarely seen anywhere else except in temples and palaces.

But what surprised me was that this relief turned out to be something from the Qin Dynasty, and the sculpture technology of the Qin Dynasty was particularly good, mostly seen in court architecture, bronze utensils and tomb Ming ware sculptures, etc., all of which have made epoch-making brilliant achievements.

This cannot be corroborated from the terracotta warriors and horses of the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang that have been unearthed, but the prevalence of relief craft was not in the Qin Dynasty, and it can be said that it is difficult to find records of large reliefs in the Qin Dynasty in any well-documented document.

But this piece in front of me is very sure that it is a cultural relic of the Qin Dynasty in terms of craftsmanship and technique, and it should be the end of the Qin Dynasty to be exact.

Although the relief is old, the expressive skill on it can still tell me a story.

The man in the 10,000-person kneeling worship sits alone on the top of the peak, below is the raging and flowing river, the man sits cross-legged, looks up into the distance, his expression is pious and proud, the people who kneel down are dressed in dark clothes, from the hat on the head I can vaguely distinguish, there are mountain crowns, law crowns and martial crowns.

I was stunned, this is the costume of the hundred officials of the Qin Dynasty, and the people who can make the hundred officials kneel and worship ......!

I hurriedly approached, and the man sitting alone was wearing a crown of heaven on his head.

This is the king's costume, and the man in the relief is Qin Shi Huang.

"This is the scene of Qin Shi Huang Taishan sealing Zen!" I whispered.

The relief pattern extends to the right, carving a large-scale military formation system, with a huge phalanx on the right, a large sparse array in the left front, and the headquarters in the left rear.

Many warriors with weapons in their hands, hundreds of war horses dragging chariots, in columns and rows, constitute a magnificent and majestic lineup, reproducing the majestic momentum of the Qin army two thousand years ago when they fought to swallow mountains and rivers.

"This should be Qin Shi Huang's great achievement of destroying the six countries and unifying the world." Huo Qian said.

In the next relief, a large group of people sit cross-legged, forming a gossip shape, and Qin Shi Huang sits in the middle, with a peaceful face, one person standing on the left and one behind him, and from the content of the carving, it seems that some kind of ceremony is being held.

"It seems that the rumors are true, Qin Shi Huang wanted to seek immortality after his last eastern tour."

After Huo Qian finished speaking, he pointed to the pattern behind him and said puzzledly.

"I can understand the front, and it is the same as the historical record, but I don't know what the final pattern means."

I walked in front of the last relief, the relief was exactly the same as the pattern of the previous ceremony, and even none of the people who carved it had changed in any way, but Qin Shi Huang, who had been sitting in the middle, was gone!

The next pattern is the death of Qin Shi Huang in the sand dunes, and the dragon coffin is pulled in the huge convoy, which can be clearly seen from the pattern, the dragon coffin is empty, and there is no one in it at all!

My fingers twitched subconsciously, and the person carving the relief was conveying a bizarre thing, Qin Shi Huang mysteriously disappeared during the last eastern tour, so in the last relief, there was no one in the dragon coffin.

I suddenly walked to the food box, picked up the Qin figurines that I had just put down, and compared them with the reliefs, I found that these Qin figurines were very similar to the characters in the reliefs with gossip diagrams.

Some people bought these figurines to recreate the ritual situation at that time!

I secretly thought in my heart, that is, someone was very sure that Qin Shi Huang was indeed missing at that time, and I thought of this and said to Huo Qian eagerly.

"Don't sell any of this batch!"

"Don't sell a single one?" Huo Qian's face was embarrassed. "This is what Brother Ting explained, I ......"

"Didn't you just say that there is still a high top when the sky falls, no matter how I look at it, I am taller than you, don't worry, I will go back and explain this matter to Brother Ting."

The method I explained was very simple, when Yue Qianling and Qiu Nuo came back, he had already put the three Qin figurines he had brought back on the table, and then sat alone and read the newspaper without a sound.

The rest doesn't seem to need me, even if Yue Qianling can't see it, there is also a Qiu Nuo who is engaged in cultural relics appraisal next to me, so I'm not worried at all that no one will take over this play.

Shopping on the street seems to be the best way for women to communicate with each other, and when the three girls come back, I obviously find that Yue Qianling has little left of the strange layer of estrangement in Qiu Nuo's heart.

Yue Qianling took a bath towel and planned to take a bath, and when she passed by the living room, she glanced at the three Qin figurines on the table, in Jingzhao, almost all the streets could see imitations of terracotta warriors, so Yue Qianling didn't care.

But when she walked to the door of the bathroom, Yue Qianling suddenly stopped, turned around in surprise, walked to the table, picked up the Qin figurines and looked at them for a long time.

"Where did you get this thing back?"

"Oh, after going to the bell tower, I took a casual stroll, and when I saw that this thing was quite chic, I bought a few as souvenirs." I said nonchalantly.

"Qiunuo, Qiunuo, come on, help me see this thing, is my eyes glazed, or is this counterfeiting process already in full swing now?" Yue Qianling shouted loudly.

Qiu Nuo walked out of the house blankly, took the Qin Warriors and looked at them.

Compared with Yue Qianling, Qiu Nuo is obviously much smarter than her, so it is somewhat abrupt to blatantly put the three Qin figurines, and I flipped through the newspaper to divert the topic.

"By the way, where did you go to play today?"

"I went to the Terracotta Army, Famen Temple, and the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, but we were tired." Gu Anqi came out of the shower and wiped her hair and said. "Brother Yan Hui, tomorrow we plan to go to the Great Mercy and Grace Temple, I heard that the incense inside is prosperous, or you can go with us tomorrow."

"What is he going to do, he is a god, and the Great Mercy and Grace Temple is a temple, a person who learns Taoism, and a person who promotes Buddhism." Yue Qianling said with a distracted smile. "If he goes, he'll probably be kicked out."

Qiu Nuo is still studying the Qin figurines in his hand, in fact, this thing is not difficult to identify, but I said that it was bought on the side of the road, which made Qiu Nuo also surprised, no matter how it looks like a genuine product, how can it be sold on the side of the road, is it that the current cost technology has exceeded his own appraisal level.

"This thing is sold on the side of the road?" Qiunuo asked with some uncertainty.

"It's all over the street, Jingzhao doesn't have much of anything, just a lot of this thing, you have to like it, I'll get you a few more tomorrow."

"Yes...... But how do I look at it, this Qin figurine is real, the pigment on it is supposed to have been lost a long time ago, when the replication was successful, why don't I know? The more Qiu Nuo looked at it, the more surprised he became.

"Others rely on this craft to eat, fooling outsiders, you are an expert in identification, should you be able to see this." I smiled, looking relaxed.

"Don't say it, I have participated in the restoration and archaeology of the terracotta warriors and horses a few times, how can I not see the imitation, but this imitation is too expressive, what is the world now, and the fraud is so professional." Yue Qianling's attention seemed to be still on Gu Anqi's topic just now.

"Of course, if you want, we don't mind if you go along."

"Forget it, I'm still not going, the cracked text prompts three o'clock in the afternoon on the seventh day of December, this time is very important, I haven't had a clue yet, I'm worried about it, it's better for you to go by yourself."

"If you are upset, you should go even more, the Great Mercy and Grace Temple used to be called the Temple of No Leakage, no leakage is a Buddhist term, leakage is all troubles, in the fruit is the fall of righteousness, that is, the reincarnation of life and death without leakage, it is said that there is no trouble in life and death, and there is no worry in life and death, and there is no leakage in this way." Gu Anqi said very seriously. "Go ahead, just meditate on the Buddha's way, and your heart will be empty."

"Worry about life and death, so there is no leakage, this is no leakage, hehe, no leakage temple, this name was fortunately changed to the Great Mercy and Grace Temple, otherwise it would be too tongue-twist......ing." I suddenly put down the newspaper in my hand. "No leakage temple! No leaks? How do I seem to see these two words somewhere? ”

Gu Anqi looked at my strange behavior and was at a loss.

I repeated the two words in my mouth, but Qiu Nuo next to me looked at the Qin figurines in my hand with all her body, and her expressions were very surprised.

Suddenly, Qiuno and I cried out excitedly almost at the same time.

"I see!"

I'm not surprised that Qiu Nuo can see that the Qin figurines are genuine, but there are more important things than the Qin figurines now.

"Qiu Nuo, you stop the meeting first, I know the meaning of the last four seven-word quatrains!"

"Yes? What is the meaning? Gu Anqi asked cautiously.

I took out a piece of paper and wrote four quatrains of seven words on it.

There was no centenarian at the age of 100,

Weiyang bell leaked drunk smell.

Looking at Anba taking the country today,

The edict flew down the clouds.

I pointed to it and said cheerfully.

"This is a poem with a hidden head, but it is not a hidden head, but a hidden one, you can read the words in the middle together!"

Yue Qianling lowered her head and pointed to the paper and read it word by word.

"No leakage?!"

"There is not only one place mentioned in the text, the morning bell and dusk drum refer to Jingzhao, and the last four sentences are the real place we are looking for, that is, the Great Mercy and Grace Temple that you will go to tomorrow!"

"Wait a minute, Wu Leak is the current Great Mercy and Grace Temple, and this explanation is still in the past, but what is this bully?" Yue Qianling asked puzzled.

"Sister Qianling, among the nine sons of the dragon, the six elders of the nine sons are called Gan, also known as Baxia, who looks like a turtle, and is a symbol of longevity and auspiciousness." Gu Anqi explained unhurriedly.
