There are still a few chapters left. Is it a kind of satisfaction to list some treasures that I originally planned to write?
"Walking with the light, after walking for a while, Wang Guan suddenly found that a huge cave space suddenly appeared in front of his eyes. In front of the narrow passage, there was a huge cave space.
Wang Guan has no doubt at all that the cave space is in the huge mountain wall, and there are many branch roads in the cave that lead to nowhere. However, it is also conceivable that there must be very secret things hidden in the cave space.
"where is this place?"
Yu Feibai looked around, his expression vaguely surprised and joyful.
"The country's secret base."
Unexpectedly, Mr. Hou actually answered bluntly: "It collects some ancient treasures, and it is also a place where treasures are studied. Wang Guan, your red sandalwood gloomy wood beads, including the Holy Grail and other things, have also been sent here for study."
"real?"
For a moment, Yu Feibai had an expression of surprise on his face. The same thing happened to Wang Guan next to him. In fact, he had somewhat expected it, but after hearing Mr. Hou's affirmation, he felt somewhat happy and looked at the surrounding situation more carefully.
The cave is spacious and equipped with many lighting equipment, making it look like daylight. At the same time, several people came out to greet them. Seeing Mr. Qian and others, they did not feel strange at all. On the contrary, they greeted them with smiles on their faces.
"You are busy with your business, let's take them for a walk first." Mr. Hou waved his hand, as if he was the master of this place. But then again, Mr. Hou can really make some decisions. After hearing his instructions, several people retreated.
¡°Southeast, southeast, northwest¡¡±
While speaking, Mr. Hou pointed to several passages in the cave, then turned back and said with a smile: "You guys choose a direction."
"East."
At the right time, Yu Feibai pointed out without hesitation: "We are in the west. We must be aligned with the east. Then we can walk around in the order of southeast, northwest and northwest."
"right."
Wang Guan is also looking forward to it. It doesn¡¯t matter where you start from, it¡¯s what you look at that matters.
"Haha, are you in a hurry?"
Mr. Hou smiled and immediately led the way: "Then follow me"
Under the guidance of Mr. Hou, Mr. Qian and others walked leisurely, chatting and laughing.
On the other hand, Wang Guan and Yu Feibai, including Bei Ye, were very curious. While walking briskly, I also found that the passage was carefully repaired, very clean and tidy, and even tiled, just like a modern building. Be part of it. If you hadn't already known that this was a cave in the middle of the mountain, you might have thought it was the corridor of a high-rise building.
No matter what, after walking in the passage for a while, another space appeared in front of me, a very elegantly decorated room with bright windows and a spotless room. The room is quite spacious, similar to an exhibition room. But there weren't many things, just two or three. But these two or three things made Wang Guan and others dazzled and dumbfounded.
"these things¡¡"
at this time. Yu Fei couldn't help but exclaimed during the day: "It's so luxurious."
Wang Guan and Bei Ye, who were nearby, heard the sound and were convinced. They saw that there were not many things placed in the room, including an incense burner. The furnace is three feet high and has four doors. There are four small bridges engraved with lifelike patterns such as flowers, birds, heavens, music, unicorns, phoenixes, white cranes and so on. In addition, pearls, agates, corals and other precious stones are embedded around the furnace body.
At first glance, especially under the light, the whole incense burner is really dazzling. In addition, next to the incense burner, there are two magnificent things. But these two items are somewhat unexpected. They are actually two pieces of clothing, clothes of ancient women.
As we all know, ancient clothes were much more cumbersome than modern ones. Especially women's clothes, which may have been very common in ancient times, but from today's perspective, they can be elevated to the level of works of art. Big sleeves, lapels, long skirts, shoulder shawls, and other bits and pieces, through various ingenious combinations, can be said to be unpredictable and colorful.
??For example, the two pieces of clothing in front of me are made of unknown materials. The colors are bright and eye-catching, and because the luster is relatively bright, they are full of gradient effects. It looks like one color when viewed from the front, and another when viewed from the side. In addition, it appears one color under the light and another color in the shadow.
The most amazing thing is that no matter from which angle you look at it, the pattern of birds flashes on the skirt. Various cranes, birds, egrets, larks and other birds are lifelike, vivid and full of dynamic three-dimensional feeling.
Seeing such exquisite and beautiful clothes, even if you don¡¯t value luxury items, you will be surprised.Ye, at this time, also had some waves of hope, showing a little bit of surprise and envy. This is understandable, because at this time, Wang Guan and Yu Feibai were in similar situations, their eyes full of joy and wanting to take possession of them.
At the same time, Mr. Qian asked with a smile: "Wang Guan, do you feel familiar when you see these things?"
"Familiarity?"
Wang Guan woke up, and after thinking about it seriously, he suddenly exclaimed: "Princess Anle's bird skirt?"
"Princess Anle?"
For a moment, Yu Feibai did not react: "Which Princess Anle?"
"Princess Anle of the Tang Dynasty." Wang Guan explained: "The daughter of Tang Zhongzong Li Xian, it is said that she and her mother Queen Wei poisoned Zhongzong, but was killed by Li Longji in a coup."
"Ah, it's her!"
"In an instant, Yu Feibai remembered: "That Princess Anle, who was extravagant and ambitious, and wanted to imitate Wu Zetian and become the female emperor"
"Yes, that's her." Wang Jian nodded and said: "After the Shenlong Coup, Wu Zetian stepped down and Zhongzong Li Xian was restored. Princess Anle became arrogant because of her favor, wielding power over the world and being extravagant. Historical records show that the princess mansion where she lived was full of Stones were built to imitate Mount Huashan, stone steps and stone bridges were criss-crossed, streams made nine twists and turns, and stone springs were built to spray water. Treasure furnaces were also cast, with monsters and birds carved on them, and countless pearls, corals and gems were inlaid in them."
"There are also two bird skirts, which are made of bird feathers, silk, and twisted threads, and are woven with gold flowers and birds. They are as thin as silk hair and as big as millet. They are equipped with eyes, nose, mouth, and armor. They are magical and It¡¯s unbelievable. After the dress was completed, it immediately caused a sensation, and the rich and powerful gentry followed suit one after another. For a while, the mountains and forests were filled with strange birds and animals, and they were swept away. I don¡¯t know how many birds suffered. "
While speaking, Wang Guan was surprised and speculated: "Now that the treasure furnace and bird skirt are here, could it be that you have discovered the tomb of Princess Anle?"
"almost."
At this time, Mr. Hou chuckled and said: "It's not a tomb, it's just some leftovers. Because it's a treasure that was buried. Apart from some gold and silver treasures, the most precious things are these three things."
"However, when these things were excavated, most of them were damaged. After careful study, we were able to successfully restore their original appearance."
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? No does not matter if you look at the things that are very beautiful, they are actually just fake goods. You can only look at them from a distance and don¡¯t play with them.
"It's good if it looks good." Yu Feibai immediately smiled and said: "Antiques and treasures like this must be mainly for appreciation. I guess no one will wear them to show off."
"Too¡¡"
Everyone nodded slightly and continued to watch a few things.
"Actually, Wang Guan and the others were just watching. As for Mr. Qian and others, they had seen it countless times. They had probably studied it thoroughly, so naturally they didn't have much interest.
" However, Wang Guan and the others also knew how to exercise restraint and knew that good things were yet to come. After looking at the situation for a moment, they urged Mr. Hou to continue leading the way and go deeper into the area. After leaving this room and walking for a while, another space appeared in front of me. Compared with the previous room, this space is large enough, and there are several people in it, seeming to be studying something.
"Mr. Hou, Mr. Qian"
When they saw a group of people coming in, several people quickly stood up to greet them.
Taking this opportunity, Wang Guan and the others also took the opportunity to observe, and saw that this place was actually a weapons exhibition hall. On the walls around the space, weapons of different lengths were hung. These weapons are either clumsy in shape and restrained in luster, or sharp and sparkling. Anyway, there is a dazzling array of things to see, and they have their own special beauty.
¡°Whether it¡¯s a cold weapon or a hot weapon, as long as it¡¯s a weapon, men¡¯s blood will surge with excitement when they see it. Especially the simple and direct cold weapons are the origin of the eternal dream of literati and knights, which is hard to ignore.
Although Wang Guan also collected several magical weapons, he also knew that there is heaven outside the world and there are people outside the world. His stuff may be good, but other people's stuff may not be bad. Especially in this mysterious place, the items on display are absolutely exquisite.
Facts speak louder than words. Under the guidance of Mr. Hou, Wang Guan and others viewed the weapons on a wall. They were long knives, imperial swords forged by Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty.
"This batch of precious swords should be the last glory of China's cold weapons."
At the same time, Mr. Hou lamented: "The Qing Dynasty conquered the world on horseback. In order to educate his descendants to be prepared for danger in times of peace, Emperor Qianlong ordered the Manufacturing Office of the Internal Affairs Office of the Qing Palace to manufacture ninety waist knives and thirty swords in the thirteenth year of Qianlong's reign. Keep the deeds forever to warn future generations not to forget the ancestral system and advocate martial arts.Prepare. "
"After the completion of this batch of weapons, they were numbered by the people of heaven and earth. They were often kept by Emperor Qianlong's side when he was reviewing the celebrations, searching for wild beasts in spring and autumn, patrolling the provinces, ordering generals to go on expeditions, and receiving foreign envoys to show the emperor's might. Because This batch of weapons is made by the royal family, so the quality is naturally guaranteed, and it also represents the highest level of craftsmanship in sword making during the heyday of the Qing Dynasty."
While speaking, Mr. Hou shook his head and said: "But after these weapons, the Qing Dynasty also began to decline, and slowly went downhill. After the middle and late Qing Dynasty, guns and artillery were rampant, and there was no longer the use of cold weapons. room."
Although the development of ancient Chinese weapons is not as good as the previous generation, this is a general comparison and does not mean that the Qing Dynasty could not produce good weapons. After all, in the early days of Qianlong, society was relatively wealthy, and due to the efforts of Emperor Yongzheng, enough money was left in the treasury for Emperor Qianlong to squander.
Under such circumstances, if the whole country is used to forge a batch of weapons, the quality will not be much worse no matter how bad it is
