In the dark room, there are faintly dozens of orange-red spotlights, but the lights are blurry and faint, and if you look closely, you will find that these lamps are the afterglow emitted by the spotlights in a glass case specially used to illuminate the treasures.

I wonder if these glasses have magical powers—either burglar-proof, bulletproof, or memory storage? Anything that appears in the Sanctuary isn't just as simple as it seems.

When the screen zooms in abruptly, a close-up of a huge glass display case, you can clearly see the colorful beams of light shining on a * and quaint bronze. This bronze vessel is a wine vessel - it should be said that all the bronzes on display here are wine vessels made by ancient princes to worship heaven and earth.

The ritual vessels used in the sacrifice have been washed by the prophets and saints of each race with their own blood and souls - just like the sword forged by the cadre Mo Xie, it needs to attract the soul as an instrument spirit in order to make an ordinary bronze mortal vessel become a spiritual sacrificial (artifact) object.

To reach the level of divine power in the category of the bronzes shown in the image, more creatures need to sacrifice their blood and souls - if they meet a good monarch, they will mercifully replace human life with livestock, most commonly cattle and sheep.

And when a certain dynasty is declining and the king is mediocre, he will sacrifice his life to the lord of heaven and earth to pray for peace—just like Solomon's river god marrying a wife, that is, in the name of the god, giving the most beautiful girl a fictitious "god name", but throwing it directly into the river and drowning in order to pray for a year without floods. The families of these young girls are forced by power or livelihood to lose their family affection in exchange for fame and fortune, while the people watching the excitement are watching the young girls happily see the young girls to the end of their lives in the name of "faith......

Anyway, there is no way to say everything about ancient religions, but they are inseparable from them, and they are simply for "rule". And because they have many believers, girls who can't control their lives can only hold grudges and die. Some will secretly learn to dive, hoping that the man they love can save them from the turbulent water, and then change their name and surname, and run away.

Sky Wolf continued: "If you want to know the history of the development of the universe, you have to study slowly from these unearthed artifacts. Do you know what this exhibit is on display right now?"

The female teacher twitched the frame of her glasses with her index finger, and she couldn't see the pattern on the screen because it was too close. So she walked to where the children were, and after standing still, she turned to look at the picture on the wall ten meters away, and said with a smile: "Sky Wolf, where did you get this material, why haven't the teachers seen it, let alone studied it?"

In fact, the moment this wine vessel appeared, the female teacher was shocked by the totem on it. It was the highest level of ritual used in ancient Egypt to pray for the gods to come to earth - once, when she was patrolling the earth, she personally instructed the people of the time in ancient Egypt to cast such totemic bronze objects. At that time, when she was casting, her mind suddenly flashed to the ritual vessel with 10,000 tons of wine in the basement under a temple tens of thousands of years ago, and the totem on it was modeled after a wine pool.

The bronzes made by different social classes have different totems, and they use totems and crafts to tell pilgrims and even descendants about their own spiritual beliefs and pursuits, and even injustices, and more to promote the ideals advocated by their own classes.

The rectangular wine vessels on the screen are tinged with pale cyan patina. The relief on the front is the left phoenix and the right phoenix, head to tail, just in the middle of the sun. Because the phoenix is self-dividing into male and female, it is distinguished by the vividness of the carved eyes and tail feathers. The sun is surrounded by male and female, and it is divided into yin and yang, resulting in different sizes and shapes of the sun's nine flames, and the left and right side reliefs are left dragons and right pythons, jointly guarding the moon. A group of crocodiles looks up at the moon and leads different classes of people to do different things: hunting, fishing, building, and so on. On the four round Roman pillars of the sake vessel, there are many carved women wrapped in linen. They are lining up to enter the temple according to their different prestige, social status, and talents, and the strict screening conditions, strict training methods, and even tedious rituals are vividly depicted. The women eliminated by the temple were rewarded by the monarch to men who had made meritorious contributions to other walks of life, and in recognition of their contributions to society and the country and its religion, they were also given the title of Marquis and were rewarded with coins, goods, servants, fertile fields, etc., which should be issued for this meritorious rank.

......

The female teacher was shocked in her heart, and hurriedly withdrew her mind from the wine vessel, not daring to continue to look closely, for fear that she would sink into the various bloody scenes she had seen - under the monarchy slavery or theocracy, human rights did not exist at all, let alone freedom.

As the messenger of the Holy Land, she went to the earth for the first time to inspect the earth, and witnessed the history of the blood and tears of the gladiators - they fought lions and tigers with their bare hands for the forces they represented, and they were scarred, and even after defeat, they put down the iron gate and hid in the dark and no way out of the gladiatorial arena cave, watching the hungry wolves outside the iron gate until they died of natural causes due to bleeding infection or starvation; God of War".

Although the female teacher was already a saint at that time, and after a lot of experience and fighting, she couldn't understand the gladiator's competition and entertainment at all.

So at this moment, she couldn't tell the truth of these cruel facts, so she had to pretend not to understand and ask the innocent little king in front of her - after all, such a young child, if they were instilled with a bloody and cruel truth, then they would not be able to have a good childhood. Because of this, white "lies" began to breed and spread in the Sanctuary.

The other 22 little kings opened their eyes wide and carefully looked at the bronzes in the picture, only to see the group map of human status and occupation distribution composed of simple geometric figures, which clearly introduced the social structure and distribution of the era in which the bronzes were located.

The wolf's question was answered. At the same time, the female teacher's question was not answered. I saw him sitting directly on the small bench indifferently.

Just as he sat down, the picture suddenly flipped to a 360-degree display of the bronze. The bronze ware full of ancient meaning and vague colors was full of majesty and dignity, and no one except the wolf and the female teacher could understand it. After all, the female teacher has research experience in this area as an accumulation, and everyone doesn't know why Sky Wolf understands. The female teacher had thought that it was because he had a teacher in this area to tutor him individually, or because the sages in his family had a special study in this area.

However, none of this can be explored in detail. After all, it's privacy.

When the wine vessel is displayed, the rest of the national treasure-level exhibits tell the stories they want to tell to the people who understand it - and those stories are the ones that the designers want to express their wishes and feelings to the world through the shape and the totems on it, and more importantly, to convey their own ideological pursuits, to find a confidant.

In ancient times, no matter what planet it was, when wise men wanted to convey the truth and facts that they did not dare to tell in that era, they would use totemic records to cast or engrave them on bronze objects with obscure words, hoping that one day they would "settle their grievances". The prince will choose the casting method to create bronzes, the reason is the high cost, you have to design first, cast the model, and then pour and cool the molding. Ordinary people, on the other hand, use the method of engraving to leave "riddles" because of their low cost and simple operation. Instead of designing and casting patterns, you can buy or exchange ready-made unpatterned bronzes and then carve the story you want to tell yourself, or ask a craftsman to help you carve it.

......

Either way, the trading coins used at the time were not gold or silver coins, nor copper coins, but shells. The size of the shells and the scarcity level (difficulty of salvage) represent different denominations.

Why is it so popular to trade shells all over the world and even in the universe?

At that time, shellfish were only available in the underwater world, and to catch shellfish from the sea, you needed the help of the so-called gods, or gifts from the gods. The gods are the saints who live in the Sanctuary - they are just "supermen" who choose to leave the planet they originally lived on with the help of technological means and tools that have reached the peak level. At the same time, because they have high-tech "diving devices", they are able to catch different kinds of shells.

In other words, their aircraft belong to land, sea and air amphibious equipment.

In addition, the initial division of labor of the entire human society was successfully completed with the help of the sages, and the "guidance work" of the sages on the earth and even other planets also needed energy supply, so they tried to formulate a "monetary system" to exchange a small number of rare shells on the continent for a large number of human materials, especially to make human beings obsessed with "money", so that they could "work" for themselves for "profit" in order to be able to go to the next station.

Over time, this became a "trading habit".

So why are national treasure-level antiques so valuable? because of their rarity. At that time, only the princes of the upper class could cast bronze objects privately. In addition, the authorities are quite strict about the circulation of these rare items. Not only because of the importance they played in society at the time, which made them mysterious and revered, but also because their main ingredient was the bronze ware, which was strictly controlled by the government and cast exclusively—it was illegal to open a kiln without official documents and permissions. Anyway, there are too many rules, and if you are not careful, you will violate the interests of those in power.
