President's Legendary Master

"Not sure yet." The little celestial master shook his head: "But such an easy-to-kill monarch, shouldn't there be no records?"

"Then let's take a look together, who is buried inside?" Dugu Haoyan was also aroused.

After a few days, the dust, headless bones, and all kinds of things scattered around the bones were finally cleaned up.

As big as some rough jade copper rings, leather armor pottery.

As small as carefully polished bone carvings and small jade stones, they were all excavated, cleaned up, and packaged for storage.

Finally, the time has come to study the gate.

On this day, Little Heavenly Master was the first person to reach out and touch the gate.

"Did you find anything?" Professor Wang Yishui is very strict with his students now, and they are not allowed to act without assurance of safety. In order to let Daomiao and Dugu Haoyan stay here legitimately, he deliberately The two of them were given the title of "archaeological consultant".

Anyway, there is a little bit of a fig leaf.

So they stayed in the archaeological team. Many people knew why, but no one had any objections.

Don't tell me it's broken.

When it was time to study the two gates, Little Heavenly Master and Dugu Haoyan followed.

"The monarch of the Zhou Dynasty is the supreme ruler of the Zhou Dynasty. The surname is Ji, a descendant of the Yellow Emperor, also known as the Son of Heaven, such as King Wu of Zhou and King Ping of Zhou. In 37 BC, King Wu of Zhou destroyed Shang and established Zhou. In the enfeoffment system, Emperor Zhou was the ruler of the world, and there were [-] kings of Zhou in thirty generations. In the later period, the emperor Zhou lost power, but he was still the supreme ruler of China in name." The little heavenly master touched the huge stone door frame: "This is a door frame made of lapis lazuli. The stone door weighs more than ten thousand catties. This should be the real tomb door."

As a "consultant", no matter what, you have to look like a consultant, don't you?

"The real tomb door?" Professor Wang Yishui pointed to the outside: "Then, where is the altar?"

"That, at most, is the place where paper is burned in front of the tomb. Of course, he is the emperor. If he doesn't burn paper, he will kill people." The little celestial master laughed: "This is the gate of the tomb, the gate of the Eight Classics."

"Oh, then this is the gate." This kind of analysis was also accepted by Professor Wang Yishui, and everyone looked at the gate.

"Is this made of stone? It looks like bronze." Chen Changgeng also touched it with his hands.

It really is the texture of stone.

However, lapis lazuli itself is a rare ore. Now the door frame, lintel and door itself are all lapis lazuli, and it is a whole piece of lapis lazuli. Such a large piece of lapis lazuli is rare in the world.

Lapis lazuli is generally blue, and its color is determined by the content of lapis lazuli minerals. Good lapis lazuli is dark blue and pure, has no cracks, fine texture, and no calcite impurities. It can be made into jewelry.

If there are white stone lines or white spots intertwined, the concentration, purity and uniformity of the color will be reduced, and the quality of jewelry will decline.

But the texture of the gate in front of them is bronze, otherwise they would not have thought it was a bronze gate just based on the color of the outside.

In fact, it is a lapis lazuli gate, which is made of stone, not artificially smelted bronze.

"Why is it lapis lazuli?" Professor Wang Yishui looked at the gate carefully: "Why not bronze? At that time, the production function was not developed, so it was not easy to collect such a large piece of lapis lazuli, not to mention carving it into the shape of a gate. "

"It was recorded in an ancient book: "The color of lapis lazuli is like the sky, or the golden shavings are scattered, and its brilliance is as beautiful as the stars." Therefore, in ancient times, lapis lazuli was usually used as a symbol of the majesty and majesty of heaven." The little celestial master said : "In the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang, lapis lazuli is used as the bedding, and it is regarded as above the stars and clouds in the sky."

"It's just that there are records saying that colored glaze miscellaneous treasures were used as turtle fish in Qin Shihuang's mausoleum. Some people thought that the colored glaze at that time referred to lapis lazuli, but they are not sure." Chen Changgeng said: "This has been debated endlessly, but some scholars think , as early as the Eastern Han Dynasty in China, there were already records of lapis lazuli, and lapis lazuli was introduced from Afghanistan to the Eastern Han Dynasty and China through the "Silk Road", but it was usually produced in aggregates."

"If this is made of lapis lazuli, then it means that lapis lazuli existed in China long before the Eastern Han Dynasty, and it is still such a large piece!" Another archeology student lowered his head and wrote down: "But the lapis lazuli Gold stone is a rare ore, how precious is such a big piece?"

"The origin of lapis lazuli is the United States, Afghanistan, Mongolia, Myanmar, Chile, Canada, Pakistan, India and Angola. But there is no Huaxia. And the lapis lazuli in Afghanistan is produced in the lapis lazuli-bearing area of ​​Badakhshan Province in the country Among them, the Sare Sanger deposit is the most famous. The genetic type of the lapis lazuli jade deposit is the contact metasomatism skarn type. The lapis lazuli produced in A country has a uniform dark blue to sky blue color, and the very fine-grained cryptocrystalline structure contains trace amounts of The pyrite makes it shine under the sunlight. Lapis lazuli is called a "treasure" by Arab Muslim countries." Dugu Haoyan has already investigated the details of lapis lazuli: "Lapis lazuli is China's since ancient times Most of the traditional jade materials imported since then come from Afghanistan. So far, no lapis lazuli has been found in China. If the lapis lazuli here is real, where does it come from?"

As soon as this question was asked, everyone was surprised. This is really a mystery to be solved.

"Lapis lazuli" is also known as "emperor blue" because its color is like the sky. It was very popular with ancient emperors and was often buried in tombs. Lapis lazuli is dignified in color and easy to carve. It is used as a paint for painting.” Professor Wang Yishui helped his eyes: “According to the Qing Hui Dian Tu Kao: “The emperor’s court beads are miscellaneous, only the Temple of Heaven uses lapis lazuli, the Temple of Earth uses amber, the Temple of the Sun uses coral, and the Temple of the Moon Turquoise is used; the emperor’s court belt is decorated with lapis lazuli for the Temple of Heaven, topaz for the Temple of Earth, coral for the Temple of the Sun, and white jade for the Temple of the Moon.” All of them use the color of jade to symbolize the sky, the earth, the sun and the moon, and the sky is the highest. Because lapis lazuli jade has a "hue like the sky", so in the Qing Dynasty, no matter whether it was a court bead or a court belt, it was very important. Lapis lazuli was also regarded as a "treasure" by Arab countries, and Afghanistan also regarded it as the "national stone" of its own country. "And the lapis lazuli in the Temple of Heaven is the only record that lapis lazuli was used as a building material. Usually, lapis lazuli is used to make jewelry. In the jewelry market, lapis lazuli has always been a precious and rare jewelry material. The best lapis lazuli is more expensive than gold."

Who would be willing to take such a treasure and use it as blue bricks and stones?That was too extravagant.

Looking at it now, what is the lapis lazuli in the Temple of Heaven?

They directly built two doors here, including the door frame and lintel, which are of the same style.

Moreover, lapis lazuli was originally dark blue with gold stars, but after being underground for a long time, this lapis lazuli also became bronze in color with gold stars.

It was only after removing that layer of floating ash that it appeared a bit blue with gold stars.

Professor Wang Yishui and the others also worked together, using cleaning tools, and finally cleaned out the true face of the door.

A very ordinary rectangular door frame without any pattern on the lintel.

The two gates are square and have a very simple shape. Although there are fairy cloud patterns on the stone wall outside, there are no simple patterns here.

"How can there be nothing?" Professor Wang Yishui groped the flat facade: "There is no decoration at all."

The old professor is not reconciled.

"There are fairy cloud patterns outside, which are for guiding purposes. This is the gate, so we don't need that thing." While they were cleaning up the dust, Daomiao squatted on the ground and touched every crack with his fingers. , including the door gap.

"Do you have any explanation for touching like this?" Professor Wang Yishui noticed the abnormal behavior of the little celestial master.

The old man was very envious and curious about the various abilities of the little celestial master.

"This one, just touch it, and judge whether there is any danger here by the feel of the hand." The little heavenly master said solemnly: "I heard that there is a technique in Tufuzi called acupuncture point, which refers to judging a person by the feel of the hand. Whether the ancient tomb is rich, whether it is dangerous, etc."

"What else?" Professor Wang Yishui frowned: "You said you have such a good technology, why do you have to rob tombs and become a Tufuzi? Seriously go to a university, get a doctorate, and you will be a professor-level talent in the future." People, as good as me."

"You are wrong." Dugu Haoyan said: "You are an old professor who teaches and educates people. You have worked hard and diligently all your life. How much money can you save? If someone steals an ancient tomb at will, it will be hundreds of dollars in a second hand. Tens of millions, eating, drinking and having fun will last a lifetime.”

"But what's the fun in that kind of life? I worry about being approached by the police every day and don't tell me, I'm afraid I have to detour when I encounter the police station." Little Tianshi curled his lips: "You have to take sleeping pills to sleep at night, right?"

"Everyone has his own aspirations!" Chen Changgeng said while cleaning some dirt in the crack of the door, "Teacher, do you still remember that student named Chen Jili?"

"Remember, because you have the same surname as you, you also said that we were a family about 500 years ago, an exchange student from the University of Hong Kong. You can take care of him." Professor Wang Yishui basically remembered all the names of his students , Not to mention the few treasures, but I definitely know if this is my student.

Compared with ordinary university professors, who can't recognize all their students, they are much better.

And as long as there is a chance, even if it's for a soy sauce, he will bring his students and add experience to them.

For the students who are living in difficulties, he finds opportunities to introduce jobs to them, and strives to make the lives of the students better.

Although there are some good old people, it has to be said that such an old man has his unique personal charm, otherwise the little celestial master would not be on call.

"When he was in school, he was very flattering to you. You often took him to various exchange meetings, work in ancient tombs, and so on. After he graduated, he heard that he was appraised by some auction house in Xiangdao. Master, the fakes are all said to be ancient handicrafts. He really has a hand, but there is no way to refute him. Now he has an annual salary of millions, drives a luxury car, and has become a veritable gold collar." Chen Changgeng sighed: " But this kind of work looks beautiful, but it also offends people. Those who bought fakes suffered a lot, so can they not take revenge on them?"

"What's wrong with him? Last time it was Chinese New Year, he came to see me and bought me something. I didn't want it, so I let him take it away. I saw him that time all year round." After all, it was my student, Professor Wang Yishui frowned: "The last time I saw him, he was wearing a suit and leather shoes. He seemed to have a good life, and he was no longer the shy one before. I heard that he even had a girlfriend?"

At that time, he also said that if he got married, let him know.

"That girlfriend was a trick for him. Now he has been suspended for investigation, because some high-value antique appraisals are all signed by him, so if something happens, he must be responsible. I persuaded him at the beginning, don't Then accept the money, he won’t listen to me, now he’s fine, he folded it in by himself, his professional ability is very good, if he stays in school, he should be able to teach, just for the pursuit of getting rich, he doesn’t hesitate to make false appraisals for others, and He has his own set of rebuttal theories, and I also convinced him."

"Some people use all means to achieve their goals, but the consequences are very serious." Dugu Haoyan said: "I also know people who are Internet geniuses, but they don't do serious things. Instead, they are cheated and abducted. They finally violated the law and were arrested."

"In today's society, there are too many and too many temptations. Many people are too young to withstand those beautiful temptations, and end up going the wrong way." Professor Wang Yishui was a little sad: "Chen Jili is the same."

"Let's not talk about that, old professor, can this door be opened?" Little Heavenly Master pointed to the door: "The dust has been cleaned up."

This is an ancient tomb over 3000 years old, and the cracks in the door are full of dust, so the door can only be opened after it has been cleaned.

"Cleaned up." Professor Wang Yishui waved his hand, erasing all the sadness and sadness in his heart: "Come on, open the door for me!"

The old man seemed to be berating Fang Qiu a little bit.
