Chen Xi took Cheris and Amut around Paris the next day, and to their surprise, Jiang Hanbing didn't come to disturb them again.

When I came to Paris, it was a waste not to see the world-famous Leonardo da Vinci painting "Mona Lisa", "Mona Lisa" was collected in the Louvre, Chen Xi took them to the Louvre, they had been there last night, but they only looked at it at the door, and now they want to go in to see the collection inside.

Now the car this time passed by the Eiffel Tower first, looking at the tower piercing into the sky, Chen Xi thought of last night's trip again.

Semioticians often say that France is a country known for its manly, feminine-obsessed little leaders who are as dangerous as Napoleon and Pepin the Elvy. It couldn't have chosen a thousand-foot-tall male genitalia (the Eiffel Tower) as a national symbol, which is perhaps also a sign of inferiority.

The Renaissance palace with its monolithic monuments is now a world-famous art museum. When he saw the Louvre Museum, Chen Xi's eyes tried in vain to see the entire building, and he felt some surprise.

On the opposite side of the large square, the façade of the magnificent Louvre stands like a castle against the Parisian sky. Shaped like a giant horseshoe, the Louvre is the longest building in Europe, longer than the three flat jointed Eiffel Towers. Even the million-square-foot open plaza between the wings of the museum cannot be compared to the width of its façade. It is said that walking through all corners of the Louvre is actually three miles away!

To get a good look at the Louvre's collection of 653,000 works of art, it's estimated that it will take at least five days! Most visitors opt for an incomplete tour and rush to see the three most famous objects in the palace: the Mona Lisa, the Venus de Milo and the Goddess of Victory.

At this time, the gate of the Louvre can be seen standing prominently in the distance, and the main entrance is surrounded by seven rectangular pools.

"Pyramid!"

Shiris and Amut were surprised together, but Chen Xi was not surprised to see the pyramid here, because he had heard of this modern glass pyramid, because it was designed by a Chinese architect.

"What's so strange? The glass pyramid is made up of exactly 666 pieces of glass and is now almost as famous as the Louvre Museum and is a must-see for visitors. Chen Xi said.

The controversial new modern glass pyramid, designed by the Chinese-born American architect I.M. Pei, is still ridiculed by traditionalists. Because they felt that it undermined the dignity of this Renaissance royal palace. Goethe once described the building as frozen music, and Pei's critics described the pyramid as a nail scratch on a polished blackboard. Radical admirers, however, see Pei's 71-foot-tall transparent pyramid as a symbol of the old and the new, a symbol that will help propel the Louvre into the next millennium, combining ancient structures with modern methods.

"When I saw the pyramids, I thought of Egypt, and I wanted to destroy it!" Amut said hatefully.

Chen Xi frowned, he really had a headache about the idea of this old monster, "Although I am not French, I still think that it is a very uncivilized behavior for you to do this. This is a beautiful work of art, which is something that our Chinese designers have improved and innovated, and it is very different from your Egyptian pharaoh's tomb. Besides, if you really destroy it, I'm afraid that the whole of Paris will be under martial law, and there will be nothing to play at that time! ”

They are now coming by taxi, and the drivers pull foreign tourists every day, so naturally they can understand English. Now hearing them discuss whether or not to destroy the pyramid, his face suddenly turned white. He shouted in his heart: God, did I pull a group of perverted terrorists!

At this time, it had arrived, the driver hurriedly stopped, Chen Xi saw the driver and remembered that there was an outsider, and when he gave the money, he whispered: "Brother, don't worry, we are not saboteurs, this friend of mine has Alzheimer's disease, and he always thinks that he is a superman, and he is not used to many things." ”

The driver took the money and left quickly.

Chen Xi glared at Amut, "You pay attention to what you say, don't scare ordinary people, you want to destroy this pyramid, do you want to uproot the iron tower just now?" ”

"How did I know they were so cowardly." Amut muttered, stopped talking, and looked away from the pyramid.

Chen Xi and the others entered the spacious and perverted Louvre, and began to look for the target "Mona Lisa", anyway, they were not interested in other things, so they simply didn't waste time.

Finding the National Pavilion, the entrance opens up to them through a large wooden door.

Chen Xi stood at the door for a moment and glanced at the rectangular exhibition hall in front of him. The National Gallery has only one entrance, a structure that is rare in museums, and it is also the only one that has a separate exhibition hall in the Grand Gallery.

The wooden door is the only entrance to this room, which faces the fifteen-meter-high painting of Botticelli on the far wall. Underneath, a huge octagonal sofa sits on a parquet floor for thousands of visitors to take a break before admiring the Louvre's treasures.

Coming here, Chen Xi could clearly feel the fluctuations of several super energies, and those energies were scattered in the air to every corner, testing every visitor who arrived.

The Mona Lisa has been stolen twice since it was in the Louvre's collection. Most recently, in 1911, it disappeared from the square gallery of the Louvre's "Mysteries". At that time, Parisians were crying in the streets, publishing articles in newspapers, begging thieves to return the paintings. Two years later, in a room at the Hotel Florence, the painting was found in the mezzanine of a suitcase.

As time passed, "Mona Lisa" became more and more precious, and Parisians naturally valued him more, so in addition to the monitoring of modern advanced equipment, Chen Xi did not feel strange that there were superpowers secretly protected, but he did not want to be considered a thief.

"You two be careful, there are superpowers guarding here, restrain the energy aura on your body, and ignore them." Chen Xi admonished in a low voice, and then walked in.

Amut also felt that there was energy around him, he thought it was fun, and he was about to make the other party suffer a loss, when he heard Chen Xi's warning, he suddenly felt bored, but he still followed the advice and followed in, wanting to see what the good things Chen Xi said looked like.

Despite its fame, the Mona Lisa is actually only 31 inches long and 21 inches wide, making it smaller than the Mona Lisa posters sold in the Louvre gift shop. It hangs in a two-inch-thick protective glass frame on the northwest wall of the National Gallery. The painting is painted on a board of poplar, and Leonardo da Vinci's blending makes it look ethereal and hazy, and the boundaries of things blend together.

There are already many visitors from all over the world in the exhibition hall, who are viewing this world-famous painting.

In fact, the reason why "Mona Lisa" has become a world famous art is not because the Mona Lisa has a mysterious smile, nor because many art historians have made mysterious explanations about it, but simply because the Renaissance master Leonardo da Vinci claimed that it was his proud work. Wherever he went, he took the painting with him, and he said he could not separate from it because it was the most perfect expression of feminine beauty.

Despite this, many art historians believe that Leonardo da Vinci's fondness for the Mona Lisa had nothing to do with his artistic technique. In reality, it is nothing more than an ordinary portrait using the blending method. Although most of the major books on art history reveal its subtle innuendo and meaning, it is incredibly that most people still think that her smile is very mysterious.

"It's not mysterious at all!" Chen Xi thought as he squeezed towards the painting, he and Amut were both tall, and it was easy for the three of them to squeeze to the front. The blurred outline grew clear in his eyes. Not mysterious at all!

Visitors who want to show off to their families on their mobile phones that they have seen the Mona Lisa often fail to do so, with special surveillance lines on the walls preventing mobile communication devices from working properly, and the only way to talk is to walk out of the exhibition hall and stand in the corridor.

And brand photography is not allowed here.

Leonardo da Vinci...... "Mona Lisa......

Chen Xi sighed a little, these are all things he learned from textbooks before, he never thought that he could stand in the Louvre in person for a moment, standing in front of the portrait of the "Mona Lisa".

In fact, Chen Xi didn't know much about Leonardo da Vinci's paintings, and he couldn't wait for a few paintings such as "Mona Lisa" and "The Last Supper". On the contrary, he still has a deep impression of this person, because when he was in elementary school, he once learned a text of "Da Vinci Flower Eggs", which left a mark at a very young age.

"It's just a portrait of a fat woman, what's so beautiful!" Seeing the Mona Lisa, Amut was disappointed.

When Shellis heard his words, she couldn't help but purse her lips and smile, this old monster, where can she wait to appreciate the artwork?

But then again, among the thousands of tourists who go to see the Mona Lisa, how many of them know how to appreciate it? I can't just watch the excitement and show off when I go back to chat.

Seeing Shellis laughing, Amut thought he agreed with his words, and hurriedly flattered and said: "Look at this fat woman, her face is not as beautiful as Shellis, and her figure has been deformed, what is there to look at!" Chen Xi, you have a problem with your vision! Aren't you afraid that Shellis will be upset? ”

Shellise laughed even more.

Chen Xi shook his head, laughing, and could only say: "What do you know, this painting is famous and very valuable." ”

"Valuable?" Amut's eyes lit up and he whispered, "Do you want to get it for you?" ”

How can such a place talk nonsense? Chen Xigang wanted to scold him, and suddenly felt a feeling in his heart, although the French are now friendly with China, but the Eight-Nation Coalition did not take away treasures from China back then, and there are still a lot of Louvre Museum, as well as cultural relics from the Mogao Grottoes in Dunhuang......

If ...... "Mona Lisa" is hung in our Forbidden City, will it also attract a lot of tourists? Chen Xi felt that this sudden idea was a bit bold.
