Chapter 505: History
"The holidays are a good time to recharge and pay off debts." Zhou Zhi gave Gu Youwen a ball: "After I finish the draft of "Interesting Stories of Sichuan Flavor", I will come back to accept the task of Master Zuzu."
"Master, I will be a senior in high school after this holiday, and I still have to prepare for the college entrance examination."
"Oh, right." Gu Youwen then remembered that this kid has not yet entered the third year of high school: "I always forget that my elbow is still a middle school student."
Director Hu smiled and said: "It is said that books have their own golden houses. Jiuzi's "Interesting Stories of Sichuan", as a pilot project for the department's cultural industry restructuring, is a very successful exploration."
"Mr. Gu, please stop putting too much pressure on your elbows and support him in completing "Sichuan Fun Talk" first."
"First of all, it is to support the work of the hall. Secondly, at least the table we are eating at now will have the credit for the copyright income!"
Everyone laughed.
After dinner, Zhou Zhi knew that Shi Zuzu had rested earlier, so he said: "How about this today? Tomorrow my godmother will go to the hall to make a report, and I have to go to Gongmei to see Manager Fei. We will come to visit Master Zuzu the day after tomorrow."
.”
Gu Youwen said: "Didn't you just say that you have something for us to study?"
"Ah yes." Zhou Zhi said, "But that thing..."
"Go get it and have a look."
When Zhou Zhi and Mr. Qiao carried the box from downstairs to Mr. Gu's living room, everyone was stunned.
For example, Guan Tingting and Guan Ma were surprised by the various strange and beautiful "beads" on the box, as well as the exquisite and colorful thangkas.
For people like Mr. Gu and Teacher Yuan who know the goods, they immediately realized the value of this thing.
"This...this is"
When it comes to luggage, most people think of modern Western brands, such as the famous Louis Vuitton, but few people know that Tibetan luggage in my country actually has a very long history, exquisite workmanship, and various categories. Various and widely used.
There are many suitcases inlaid with gold and silver, embellished with jewelry, and painted with fine mineral materials and paint. These are the luxury goods that can truly surpass Louis Vuitton.
However, this kind of cultural relics often do not attract the attention of Chinese collectors. On the contrary, they bloom inside and outside the walls. Many Western museums have always coveted leather product cultural relics from several major ethnic minority areas and have stolen many of them.
Now this box is undoubtedly a treasure, because the coral wax and gemstones inlaid on it are enough to prove its luxury.
"That's it. My fourth cousin, my fourth cousin, and I have been studying it for some time, but we don't know what it is."
"This must be a Tibetan Buddhist item." Teacher Yuan said: "In Tibetan Buddhism, carnelian, beeswax, acanthus, pearls, coral, gold, and silver are the seven treasures of the West. These things are on this box
There are all of them, and many of them are engraved with various auspicious patterns, and the five surfaces should be Buddha thangkas."
Gu Lao pointed to the two thangkas and said: "The one on the top, the left hand of the Buddha is in the meditation mudra, and the right hand is in the earth mudra. It is the living Buddha Sakyamuni. This one is holding a medicine bowl in the left hand and a plant in the right hand. It should be
Medicine Buddha is also called Medicine Master Glazed Light Tathagata."
"The remaining three faces look like ferocious diamonds. This is called the wrathful face. I don't know which god it is. How did you get this thing?"
"At the beginning, we just thought it was an ordinary black leather box." Zhou Zhi said: "I received a box of shabby ancient paintings in Shudu, and those ancient paintings were packed in a black box."
"This year I installed air conditioning in the studio of Fourth Cousin Uncle. With constant temperature conditions, Fourth Cousin Uncle is going to store the ancient paintings under better conditions and wait for repairs."
"As a result, when I was unpacking this box, my fourth cousin became interested in some bulges on the box. I always felt that this was the original box that had been covered with a layer of skin, and then the skin was painted black to disguise it.
Ordinary box."
"So after the box was emptied, my fourth cousin tried to dismantle it." Zhou Zhi opened the box and took out several pieces of tattooed leather stored inside: "It turns out that inside are the boxes we see now, and
There are many patterns on the inner surface of the skin, which should be tattoos and tattoos."
"Put the things here." Seeing those strange pictures, Mr. Gu frowned slightly: "You can leave now. Remember to come early the day after tomorrow. Xiao Yuan, call the Tibetology Research Center and ask for help.
Professor Zeng is here."
"Master, you still need to pay attention to your rest." The old man was over ninety years old, and he couldn't help but be considerate and not worried.
"Well, I'm going to rest now and wait for Dan Zeng to come over." After Gu Youwen finished speaking, he closed his eyes.
Ah, this... Zhou Zhi didn't dare to persuade her anymore, and looked at her godmother. She also shook her head, made a gesture like everyone was walking out, and waved to Teacher Yuan to say goodbye.
Teacher Yuan has already picked up the phone and started dialing, nodding to say hello to the people leaving.
When she came out of the corridor, Guan Tingting dared to breathe loudly: "Huh! What was that thing just now, brother Zhuzi? It looked so scary!"
"It may be a very important object. Let's wait for Master Zuzu and the others to study it." Zhou Zhi said: "I don't know what it is, but there will definitely be results."
"Go back to the guest house now?" Director Hu said, "Have you found a place to stay? How about I arrange it for everyone?"
"I've asked Brother Wu to tidy up a few rooms in my house." Zhou Zhi smiled and said, "I won't bother Brother Hu."
"Please Hu Chu, please send me to the guest house." The godmother smiled and said, "It would be better for me to stay in the guest house. It will be convenient for me to report to the hall tomorrow."
"Won't your godmother come to my place to see you?"
"Let Qiao Mu go."
"That's right, don't rush it now. If you want me to talk about elbows, you should treat me to a treat. Then everyone will come and take a look."
"That's a good idea!" Zhou Zhi smiled and said, "Then I will discuss it with Brother Wu tomorrow to see when everyone is free. We have to prepare in advance."
"Okay, I've come to a conclusion about the box and the leathers. Give me a call. It looks strange. I want to know what it is."
"Goodbye, brother Hu, and goodbye, godmother."
"goodbye!"
So everyone divided into two groups. Zhou Zhi drove the Toyota and took Wu Qiaomu and Guan Tingting and Guan Ma to Suihuaxuan, while Lao Hu took his godmother back to the city.
The car got off the first ring road and entered the "wilderness". Soon there were no street lights on both sides of the road. The bushes on both sides illuminated by the headlights looked eerie and a bit scary.
Guan Ma was a little scared: "Why are you thinking about buying a house here? There are no residents around. It's scary."
"It's still lively when there are residents there," Zhou Zhi said with a smile, "It's just that they haven't arrived yet."
At this time, a green truck appeared on the road ahead with military plates. Guan Ma breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Let's follow this truck."
An arm wearing a military shirt stretched out from the cab in front and waved, signaling for Zhou Zhi and their car to pass.
Zhou Zhi easily passed the military vehicle as soon as he stepped on the accelerator and clicked the horn twice to express his gratitude.
Guan Tingting leaned on the passenger window and looked into the driver's cab: "Brother Bing!"
