Part 7 Nuqing Xiangxi Chapter 51 Natural History Museum


Blind Chen told how this happened.

Before he led his troops south to Yunnan to fight, he was about to appraise and sell various treasures dug out from Pingshan Mountain.

In the past, stolen artifacts were not taken out as quickly as this time.

Because of the tomb robbing incident in western Hunan, not only did public opinion strongly condemn the warlords and bandits for stealing treasures, but antiquities dealers from all over the country flocked to take advantage of the opportunity.

Get a vote.

At a time when the world is in chaos, the price of antiques is low, but if it falls, it will inevitably rise.

Many businessmen want to hoard a batch of genuine items at this time, so that they can ask for sky-high prices in the peaceful years, so the transaction of antiques and memorabilia has always been at an end.

Interrupt.

There is a rich man named Qian who loves antiquity in the province.

His family has opened several gauze shops in Shanghai, Qingdao and other places, and also has many local industries.

Boss Qian was born in a Confucian family and was influenced by his family.

He has been fond of antiques since he was a child.

He asked someone to find Blind Man Chen and personally picked out a few things he liked.

Among them were the partridge whistle in the alchemy well, the coffin where the six-winged old centipede worshiped and spit out elixirs, the bronze alchemy furnace in the alchemy well, and the strange and simple bronze figures and bronze ghosts that Boss Qian bought.

If you find a treasure, you will be happy.

Blind Chen has always been pretentious, not like Tang, Wu, or Confucius.

He always felt that his talents, knowledge, and knowledge were unmatched by anyone in the world.

Even the ancient sages and sages refused to take him seriously, but he looked at the pair of eyeless bronze figures. , Bronze Ghost, although I knew there were a lot of strange things in them, I couldn't figure out the mystery at all.

I wanted to ask Boss Qian why he chose these ancient relics to see if he knew their origins, but when he said it, he felt that it was wrong. identity.

In the end, I went around in circles a few more times, using the excuse of talking about the past and the present to learn a thing or two from Boss Qian.

Boss Qian likes to read Yi the most, and he has studied it very deeply.

He knows that today's gossip is derived from the day after tomorrow.

The earliest ancient hexagrams did not use symbols such as "Qiankan Genzhen".

This bronze eyeless human talisman and ghost Talismans are the most primitive symbols in ancient hexagrams.

If you want to divine a hexagram, you need at least four ancient talismans.

Unfortunately, there are only two, let alone a complete set.

At least four ancient bronze talismans can be used.

It is said that mastering this way can gain insight into the mysteries of heaven.

As for how to use it, Boss Qian didn't know.

He only knew that the bronze talisman must be an ancient relic from three dynasties ago.

The so-called three dynasties refer to Xia, Shang and Zhou.

As for things from the Tang and Song Dynasties, compared with the historical relics of the three dynasties, they cannot be called antiquities.

In the eyes of real experts, their collection value is not the same.

The copper furnace for burning elixir should be from the late Western Han Dynasty.

There are thousands of exquisite and mysterious patterns on the alchemy furnace, all depicting scenes of ancient people refining alchemy.

If you look closely, you can see that there are also marks of ancient bronze talismans.

However, despite his profound knowledge, Mr.

Qian could not understand the content.

He just felt that this was an ancient wonder, containing profound secrets and having high collection value.

Blind Chen thought to himself that since he didn't know what he was doing, what was the use of hiding it at home?

He sent Boss Qian away without taking it to heart.

In a flash, his eyes were as dark as an arrow.

More than half a century had passed, and he had never encountered a similar ancient bronze talisman again.

The events of that year had long been forgotten.

It was not until the last time he heard me mention the dragon talisman of Baiyan Cave that he suddenly I remembered this section.

Blind Chen said to me: "If you have a chance, you might as well collect four ancient talismans so that I can know what secrets they have."

I said: "Actually, I just saw two ancient bronze talismans by accident.

Although I am personally interested in them, I will not search all over the world just because I want to pry into the secrets left by the ancients.

Now I am most anxious to know, There are golden elixirs in ancient tombs somewhere in the world.

Saving people is like putting out fires.

If the inner elixir of ancient corpses is not found, my friend will have to go see Marx."

Blind Chen said with a smile: "That's a bad statement.

Life passes by in a hurry for decades, and you are as humble and insignificant as an ant.

If you can understand the secrets of God with the body of an ant, even if you are shattered to pieces, it will not be in vain."

I smiled bitterly and shook my head.

Although Blind Chen was a late hero, his ambition was still there.

However, his pursuit had changed now, and he was at a higher level.

He actually wanted to know the secret of "god".

I think Shirey Yang is religious and very pious.

She may believe in these concepts of "divine secrets, revelations, and gods."

But Shirey Yang also shook her head.

She said: "Asking a person what God is like is like asking a goldfish.

It doesn’t matter what the water it lives in is.

Faith should be the destination of the soul.”

Chen Xiazi said: "As for the ancient corpse inner elixir, there are more than one or two in Pingshan Mountain in western Hunan.

This is because Pingshan Mountain was originally an elixir palace and a mountain of medicine.

It is not surprising that there is such a thing.

The rest of the places can be found There are very few of them, but that bottle mountain existed decades ago.

Even the local Dongyi tombs, which had no known artifacts, were emptied out by those frustrated thieves.

Now that you two want to find the golden elixir from the ancient tomb, I'm afraid they have to ask God.

The world is hard to find even if you wear iron shoes.”

Seeing that my last hope had failed, I couldn't help but feel extremely discouraged.

It seemed that Duoling's life could not be saved after all, but I would not give up until I reached the Yellow River.

As long as Duoling was still alive, I would try my best to find other ways.

Seeing that it was getting late, I had no way to return to Beijing that day, so I had to stay temporarily in the guest house of the Ministry of Railways.

The next day I asked Blind Chen what his plans were for the future and whether he wanted to go shopping in the United States with me.

Blind Chen sighed: "The ancients often compared life to dreams, lamenting that time flies so fast that one's whole life is like living in a void. , during which there were so many joys and sorrows, joys and sorrows, gains and losses, gatherings and separations, life and death, and transformations.

In the end, it was all like a dream, where there was gathering and separation.

The word "deserved" is impermanent.

I never imagined that we would never see each other again after we said goodbye by the Dongting Lake.

Looking back on the past, it seems like it was yesterday that I should go to the tomb of my old friend, Partridge Shao, to pay homage.

But I’m afraid my old bones only have a few days left to live.

I really don’t want to die in a foreign country thousands of miles away, so I want to go back to my hometown in Xiangyin first.”

I had no choice but to buy a train ticket and go to the train station with Shiry Yang to put him on the train.

We also agreed with him that we would go find him before Qingming Festival and then go to the United States together to visit the grave of the last Taoist monk.

After bidding farewell to blind man Ding and Chen, we went back to the guest house to pack our things.

We bought a newspaper on the way and flipped through a few pages on the bus.

We saw a whole page about "After the Reform and Opening Up, the Party's Eleventh Day" Since the Third Plenary Session of the CPC Central Committee, what brilliant achievements have been made in various fields?

In order to enrich the amateur cultural life of Tianjin citizens, the Tianjin Natural History Museum has reopened to the public, and leaders from all walks of life have written congratulatory messages."

This kind of news can be seen everywhere, and there is nothing special about it, but some of them caught my attention.

The news mentioned that in order to enrich the exhibits of the Natural History Museum, a batch of precious cultural relics from Hunan Province will be sent to Tianjin for a week to be displayed in the sixth exhibition room on the second floor of the museum.

This batch of precious cultural relics from Hunan Province includes a batch of national treasure-level cultural relics donated by patriotic overseas Chinese.

Among them, the ones worthy of special attention are the relatively rare "eyeless humanoid bronze ornaments Zhou" in history and the nine-color painted bronze statue of Han Han with gold and silver patterns. " I wondered: "History is always full of amazing coincidences.

Aren't these the treasures that the heroes who moved mountains and unloaded mountains poured out from Pingshan?

It turned out that they had been donated to the country by patriotic overseas Chinese, and they were brought to Tianjin for exhibition.

For public viewing.”

Shiry Yang took the newspaper and read it.

She was also curious: "The photos in the newspaper are a bit blurry.

Why don't we drop by the Museum of Natural History to see with our own eyes?"

The two of us hit it off immediately, and we didn’t even go back to the guest house.

We went straight to the Natural History Museum to buy tickets.

This exhibition hall was established very early, dating back to the early years of the Republic of China.

It was called the "Northern Xinjiang Museum" and was later changed to the "People's Science Museum."

The exhibition was temporarily suspended during the Cultural Revolution.

Since it reopened not long ago, there were not many exhibits, but there was an endless stream of visitors inside.

Organized school groups accounted for more than half of the crowd, and most of them went to see the fossils and specimens of various paleontology.

Exhibitions were popular in the society at that time.

If you go to a park, you can often see exhibitions such as "abnormal fetal specimens, ancient Xinjiang corpses, human anatomy", and even some rare animal exhibitions, which are nothing more than piglets.

Rats of the same size, monsters with human heads and snake bodies, etc., there are all kinds of gimmicks, but there are also some people who pretend to be sheep's heads and sell dog meat.

Therefore, I was not interested in the exhibits in the museum.

Seeing that there were stairs outside the museum that led directly to the "Exhibition of Precious Cultural Relics Unearthed in Hunan Province" on the second floor, I took Shiry Yang straight to the second floor.

When you go in from the outside on the second floor, you can see that the exhibits are really rich.

Hundreds of large and small cultural relics are displayed in various glass display cabinets in various categories.

Many of them are imitations.

It is impossible for real people to see them so casually, but ordinary Visitors can't see it, they just see it as something new.

However, not many people visited this floor, so it seemed a bit deserted.

I have seen countless bright objects, and when I saw these things, I couldn't help but feel that they looked familiar, and I glanced at them at a glance.

In a display cabinet, I suddenly saw the legendary alchemy furnace.

It was exactly the same as what Chen Xiazi described.

Judging from my eyesight, this thing is definitely authentic.

Maybe because of its huge shape, there is no need to worry about being stolen easily.

Shiry Yang remembered that her grandfather had hidden in this furnace, and she couldn't help but imagine the spirit of the factory.

I stared at the lines on the furnace body, trying to carefully identify the details in the picture, but the distance between the furnace and the glass of the display cabinet was one meter away.

Although I was not short-sighted, I couldn't see the details clearly, and the copper There are a total of eight "Immortal Transformation Pictures" cast on the furnace.

Several of them are blocked due to angles, so you can't even see them.

Shiry Yang suddenly remembered that she had left her inseparable camera in the guest house.

She was anxious to take some photos, so she asked me to wander around casually.

She immediately went back to get the camera.

I had to wander alone in the Natural History Museum, looking at the alchemy furnace several times, and then looking at the bronze talismans in another set of display cabinets.

The hollow human and ghost symbols in the eyes were all there, and they were stained with patina.

They seemed to be genuine.

I was about to get closer and take a closer look, when suddenly a uniformed policeman came over and slapped me on the shoulder without saying a word. .

I was only focused on looking at the ancient talisman, and I never expected that this would happen.

It happened suddenly, and I was a little confused.

It is illegal to look at an open weapon.

I said to the policeman inexplicably: "Comrade policeman, what do you mean?

Five lectures, four beauties and three loves, but I didn’t miss any of them.”

But the policeman shouted: "Company commander, you don't recognize me anymore" with a loud voice that made people's ears buzz.

I took a closer look, and it turned out to be a comrade of mine in the army who we fought on the front line with.

His name was Ai Hongjun.

I had nicknamed him "Naughty" before.

I haven't seen him since I left the army.

I didn't expect to meet him in the Natural History Museum a few years later.

The comrades who crawled out from the dead together met unexpectedly, and were naturally surprised and happy.

I smiled and said, "Lao Ai, your voice is still so loud.

Why are you sneaking into the police force now?"

Just as I was about to reminisce with him, I suddenly saw a familiar figure passing by the door of the exhibition room.

I was immediately startled and felt something bad in my heart.

It felt like someone had stabbed me in the back, but I thought I couldn't figure out what was wrong, and I was in a daze with no clue at all.

I hurriedly pushed aside Ai Hongjun, who was wearing police uniform, and quickly chased after the mysterious figure who looked familiar
