Chapter 1023: Visiting Antiquities
It was another weekend, and Fang Leng went to the Rad's Antiquities Exhibition Hall in the Metropolis to participate in an antiquities exhibition. This exhibition of antiquities can be said to bring together a large number of cultural relics from all over the world. In addition to the participation of some public organizations, some private collectors also put their own collections of cultural relics on display. In addition, an auction of cultural relics will be held during this exhibition.
At nine o'clock in the morning of this day, Carat and Fang Leng came to the Ryder Ancient Cultural Relics Exhibition Hall together. Several people got out of the car and began to walk towards the gate of the exhibition hall.
The exhibition is crowded with people, as it is said that there are many things on display: fine ceramics from China, Buddha statues from ancient India, armor from ancient Roman legions, mummies from Egypt, and various ancient paintings and works of art from all over the world. With so many products of human history and cultural accumulation, it is natural to watch and watch in your leisure time to increase your knowledge.
The three of them walked into the exhibition hall, and as soon as they entered the hall, a strong historical and humanistic atmosphere came to their faces. In the main hall there are many glass cabinets, and inside are some artifacts from a long time.
Fang Leng looked at these cultural relics as he walked, and said with a sigh: "Oh, it's a treasure trove of antiques!" ”
Louise, who was also in the side, said: "Oh, this exhibition probably brings together a lot of artifacts from 3000 B.C. to the 13th century A.D. Here, we can feel the cultural accumulation of different times and civilizations. ”
Then Louise gave another profound explanation, which was detailed and wonderful. Fang Leng and Carat seemed to think that Louise could be the docent here.
Several people continued to march deeper into the exhibition hall, and the exhibits inside the exhibition hall were also clearly different in popularity.
For example, a large number of people are often gathered around the glass case of the more popular exhibits, and some people will stop for a long time with curiosity. The less popular exhibits tend to be seen by only four or five people, and it doesn't take long for them to walk away.
Most of the popular cultural relics are cultural relics with a long history and unique types. Most of the cultural relics that are unpopular in popularity are some cultural relics that are not outstanding in shape and heritage.
Of course, there are some cultural relics that have hit the popularity of the sky.
"Look! That's an ancient Egyptian mummy! Louise said.
A few people walked to the place where Louise was pointing, and saw a very large glass case surrounded by a group of people.
In that glass case is an ancient Egyptian coffin. At the bottom of the glass case is a bulletin board that reads: "The Crystallization of Ancient Egyptian Civilization ——— Mummy".
Being able to see the ancient Egyptian mummy with his own eyes, Fang Leng also suddenly felt excited for a while. Even though he had experienced many wonderful experiences for a while, Fang Leng was still a little excited. Egyptian mummies can be said to be an extremely magical cultural relic, which has made many people in the world admire, even Fang Leng is no exception.
Although there are many people looking around here, the cabinet used to display ancient Egyptian mummies is very large. This makes it possible to have a considerable number of people looking around the glass display case. Moreover, the flow of people in the exhibition hall is very orderly as a whole, so although there are many people around the mummy glass display case, it is still orderly and does not cause too crowded situation.
Fang Leng and Carat also have the opportunity to watch by the glass showcase.
An ancient Egyptian mummy is lying in a delicate humanoid pavilion in a glass display case, while the coffin lid is placed parallel to the side. The mummies in the Human-shaped Pavilion were tightly wrapped in yellow linen, and the linen on the mummies had many tiny gaps, which were between the strips of linen.
The linen wrapped in the mummies is very neat, and the linen is yellow as a whole. However, it is also more or less brownish due to the passage of time. However, on the whole, this mummy is still very tightly wrapped, and the linen cloth that wraps this mummy is also okay today. It is precisely because of the quality of these shrouds that they have survived to this day.
And that's not all, the mummy's head wears a golden mask. Although the workmanship is not as delicate as the workmanship of the famous Tutankhamun gold mask, it is still good. I saw that the golden mask was vivid, and the outline seemed to be concave and convex, as if a person was lifelike.
Looking at this mummy, Fang Leng also sighed lightly: "It's just unimaginable, this mummy was made thousands of years ago. ”
Suddenly, Louise noticed something, stared at a white text on the bulletin board under the glass display case and said, "Look here, there's an explanation for this mummy." ”
Fang Leng's gaze was also attracted. On that bulletin board, in addition to the title "The Crystallization of Ancient Egyptian Civilization ——— Mummies", there are also several lines of text introducing the identity and age of mummies.
The billboard reads:
"Nymph, female. She was the daughter of the high priest Lun Long during the New Kingdom period of ancient Egypt. The time of her death was around 1050 BC. The mummy was taken in 1920 by the British Tom Murphy. In Thebes, Professor Fiennes found that the tomb was in the middle of nowhere, with no signs of theft, and the mummy was very well preserved. However, Isis was about 20 years old when she died, and according to the instrument scan, her bones and body tissues were well developed and there were no diseased tissues. However, he had a wound to his body at the erection of his neck, and he probably died in an accident. ”
After reading this, Fang Leng took his eyes off the bulletin board. Look at the well-preserved mummy in the coffin.
The mummy's gold mask outlines the beautiful face of an ancient Egyptian girl, with a round face shape, delicate facial features, and a somewhat relaxed smile at the corners of her mouth. On the mask, the part around the face that represents the long jet-black hair is also outlined with lines, which is very obvious.
Looking at these, Fang Leng seemed to fantasize in his heart that a beautiful girl who had died young was smiling quietly. But after the vicissitudes of time, the beautiful girl of ancient Egypt has now become such a cultural relic.
Carat gently patted Fang Leng's shoulder and said, "Well, this mummy doesn't look very rough on the outside. But the structure inside is really shriveled! ”
Fang Leng was stunned for a moment after listening to Cara's words, and thought to himself, "The structure inside? But the mummy was tightly wrapped in linen. How could Carat ......"
The people around him were mainly looking at cultural relics, and Fang Leng's strange handshake didn't care much about them at all. Instead, he focused on the mummy in the glass display case.
Fang Leng looked at the mummy, lowered his head slightly, and used the "X Sight" he had just obtained. Fang Leng's eyes instantly became very clear and transparent.
That's it, just now Carat moved X's eyes to see through the real remains inside the mummy. After hearing those words, Fang Leng quickly figured out that this was the case, so he hurriedly used his superpower to transform his physique to obtain X Sight to give this mummy perspective.
In this powerful perspective of sight, Fang Leng saw the remains wrapped in layers of linen. Sure enough, linen took up most of the volume, and the remains wrapped in layers were shriveled after being embalmed and dehydrated by the ancient Egyptians. And if you look at it from the outside, the mummy's torso and body are much thicker, even thicker than a living person. But most of them were just linen wrapped around the corpses inside. The corpses inside were still much thinner than those of a living person.
Moreover, Fang Leng found some bone scars on the neck of the corpse.
Fang Leng thought to himself: "Sure enough, just like what was introduced on the bulletin board just now, she was injured and died!" ”
