Chapter 739: Mona Lisa's Smile
William. Kim!, also known as William, the legendary Pirate Leader of the Caribbean. Kidd! That Captain Kidd. This is a legend, he did what he did, he was a pirate, he did everything to kill people and set fires at sea, but he didn't admit that he was a pirate when he ended up on the gallows!
I didn't expect that the treasure here was actually left by him, and the old guy didn't leave the treasure to his wife and children, but to someone who was destined. Xu Yang really knows a lot about this great god, mainly because the experience of this great god is too legendary, Xu Yang has read the story of this great god in a celebrity legend a long time ago.
Xu Yang sat down, leaned on those boxes, and looked at the pile of glittering and jeweled treasures in front of him, what if he had the wealth of this world? What kind of fate could he end up with? Xu Yang didn't think of William from the bottom of his heart. Kidd is a bad guy, and he thinks he's a hero.
In fact, after this letter, there is a letter, which can be said to be a request. William. Kidd's request, the request is simple, that is, if future generations see these treasures and obtain these treasures, please ask the person who obtains the treasure to take revenge on the descendants of Belomunt. Kidd was framed by this man back then.
Captain Kidd, who came to life, was a serious merchant with a knighthood, and he had always maintained the maritime trade between the United States and England, but it was a man named Belo Monte who changed everything. Turn a promising lord into a Pirate of the Caribbean.
Captain Kidd's speciality lies in the fact that he has only been a pirate at sea for four years. Looking at these wealthes, Xu Hao imagined how he could grab these riches in four years. This is even more terrible than the ransacking of a country. Maybe he really has a talent for being a pirate. Pick up a box casually, these gold chests are very mysterious, and Xu Yang can't use his ability to detect the items inside.
What is in this box? The box is also pure gold, but this box is more like a sword box, can it be said that it is still a sword? But it seems to be very light when held in the hand. What could that be.
Open it carefully, this time Xu Yang knew what was inside, a long cylinder, this is the roll for the painting. But what is this roll made of? It's peculiar. Mangosteen is engraved on the painting tube. The cylindrical shape is also a complete bamboo type, and it is indeed not bamboo. That's why it's interesting.
No matter how much, Xu Yang casually opened the painting tube and poured out a scroll of paintings. To be honest, Xu Yang knew that this thing was definitely not ordinary, but Xu Yang really didn't expect that this painting that was casually placed here was actually it!
Xu Yang knows no matter how bad his understanding of calligraphy and painting is, he also knows about this painting. Or seventy percent of the people in the world know the name of this painting, which is a world-famous painting - "The Smile of the Mona Lisa"!
How could it be, just now I was still a little embarrassed, and I immediately sat up in shock. No matter how big Xu Yang is, he has coveted this painting for a long time. Is it a fake one in the Louvre now? Or is this one in my hand a fake? Xu Yang has a hunch that the painting in his hand is genuine, and the one in the Louvre may be fake, or a high imitation!
The Mona Lisa is a portrait of the famous Italian Renaissance painter Leonardo da Vinci. The true identity of the protagonist is debated, and there are several versions of it. One of the more popular versions is that the protagonist of the painting is Mona Lisa, the young wife of the then upstart Giorgondo, and the painting was painted for 4 years. At that time, Mona Lisa's young son had just died, and she had been in a state of grief and sullenness. In order to make the hostess happy, Leonardo da Vinci invited musicians and comedians to do his best to make the Mona Lisa happy while he painted. After the painting was completed, the mysterious smile on the dignified and beautiful Mona Lisa's face made countless people fall in love with it. Later, the term "Mona Lisa's smile" was used as a metaphor for a charming smile or a mysterious smile.
Xu Yang has read a lot of information about this masterpiece, and even people like Donald who don't like Western culture respect this painting. And this painting is not only unparalleled in the world, but also has a lot of fog. It can be said that this painting is too controversial.
First, there is the controversy over the identity of the characters in the painting. One of the more popular theories is that her real name was Lisa Gherardini, the wife of a merchant in Florence, Italy, some historians believe that the Mona Lisa was a self-portrait of Leonardo da Vinci, who painted herself as a woman because he was gay and his love life was unknown, and the American writer Dan Brown mentions in his book The Da Vinci Code that the name Mona Lisa may be an anagram, alluding to an Egyptian deity.
Some say she was da Vinci's mother, or da Vinci's secret lover, others say she was a famous prostitute in Florence at the time, and among many speculations, the famous 16th-century art historian Vasari once put forward a theory that the Mona Lisa was the wife of a wealthy Florentine merchant surnamed Giokonda, but this prosaic view did not arouse much interest. It wasn't until 2005 that Dr. Armin Schlecht, an expert on manuscripts at the University of Heidelberg in Germany, found conclusive evidence in the library's pile of old papers - an old book from 1503. The author of the book was Augustino Vespucci, a close friend of Leonardo da Vinci and a local official in Florence at the time. In the margins of the book, Vespucci wrote a scribbled text: "Leonardo da Vinci is like the ancient Greek painter Apelis, who is working on three paintings, one of which is a portrait of Grodini - Vespucci. ”
No matter what it is, there are too many fans in this painting, the moment Xu Yang opened the painting, at first glance, he just felt that the woman in the portrait smiled kindly, just like a mother's warm smile, but when you look at it, the more you look at it, the more you are fascinated, as if you want to indulge in it, whether it is a woman's eyes or mouth, in short, that smile will infect a person's heart.
Xu Yang swore that he seemed to be really intoxicated, and now Xu Yang's brain development has been quite large, in other words, the best hypnotist in the world can't hypnotize him! Look at the eyes in the painting. Xu Yang felt that the eyes that should have been just drawn came to life, and Xu Yang saw the long-lost intimacy, flowing with the waves in his eyes. Xu Yang even saw his parents, his wife, and his children!
I don't know how long it has been, Xu Yang shivered and woke up from his intoxication, at this time Xu Yang was scared into a cold sweat, and this is a demon painting in ancient times, which can confuse people's minds. What would it be like to be an ordinary person if you were like this? You can imagine how terrible this is.
Xu Yang didn't dare to continue, and immediately carefully rolled up the scroll and put it back into the tube. And put it in the gold box, and put the box in its place. Saw the mink rolling on a pile of silk. I'm still wearing a curtain of leaves and grass. The little one holds a nest of tall satin. It's so unpleasant.
However, Xu Yang is also used to his straw curtain. Greeted the little mink, now that you know this place, you can come in when you have nothing to do in the future. Or there are too many things here, if you want to study every item, there is not enough time in this life, half a football sound baby is not a joke, as if this "Mona Lisa's Smile" can already let him study for a year or two, or a lifetime, so there is no treasure of the same level here?
Out of the cave, Xu Yang glanced back, when he came back, he also had to walk the dark and silent cave, although he had a much better experience, but this second time, his heart couldn't stand it, I really don't know how this Captain Kidd put these treasures in back then.
It's been four years, and I've been on this island for four years. The "Mona Lisa's Smile" evoked Xu Yang's infinite thoughts. Ate supper hastily, of course, to thank the mink. Xu Yang's cooking was quite rich, and the little guy was lying on Xu Yang's stomach when he was full. Xu Yang lay on the stone slab, looking at the starry sky. Watch the stars flow. Slowly, his mind sank into it.
Heaven is natural, and it touches all things. Xu Yang is in a mysterious state. Xu Yang seemed to have suddenly entered a mysterious world, and the time and space around him appeared dazzlingly distorted, and he glanced back and saw himself lying on the stone slab. Xu Yang didn't have a trace of fear.
He just glanced at his body and continued to fly upward. This kind of light and fluttering feeling made Xu Yang feel an indescribable lightness, as if he was free from all the shackles, standing above the island, looking around, now he can see a lot of things that he can't usually see, such as all kinds of breath around the body, there is red fire, green coolness. Blue icy cold. Black is dark, white is bright, gray is heavy.
Is this the energy in the world? The aura of heaven and earth absorbed by the legendary monks? Xu Yang didn't know that today's situation was also entered by accident. Standing on a high place, Xu Yang could see why no one had entered this small island for four years. The whole sea is like a reflection of a skull. There are undercurrents everywhere, not to mention a big ship, not even a single log can enter. It should have been a good time and place when I entered at that time, otherwise I should have been buried at the bottom of the sea.
The starlight in the sky seems to shine on him, absorbing the energy in the starlight, so let's call him energy now. In fact, it is more like a magnetic field, Xu Yang and those rays are like the positive and negative poles of a magnet, attracting and absorbing each other!
Could it be an out-of-body experience, just kidding? Xu Yang never believed that there were immortals or anything like that in this world. Growing up so big, he or the people around him have never seen him!
