Digging up my own ancestral grave, the school flower insists that I am a tomb robber

Chapter 460 Eightfold Treasure Letter
Then the door of a tomb slowly opened, and many jade treasures appeared in front of everyone.

"There are so many cultural relics, it seems to be jade from the Tang Dynasty, right sister-in-law!?" Chen Xiaoxiao said at this time.

heard,

Ye Jin nodded and said, "That's right, it seems that I really remembered it carefully, and it is indeed all jade from the Tang Dynasty."

"Jade materials in the Tang Dynasty were mainly Hetian green and white jade, and other jade materials were rare. In addition, a large number of miscellaneous agates and transparent crystals, etc., are mostly not found in domestic mines, and may have been imported from the Western Regions."

"The jade wares of the Tang Dynasty are more cordial and lovely than the jade wares of the Zhou and Han Dynasties. The jade wares of the Zhou Dynasty are mainly ceremonial jade wares, and you can't play with urns casually. The funeral and evil jade of the Han Dynasty dominate the world, and play is limited.

Before the Tang Dynasty, some jade decorations were also quite exquisite, but they were too spiritual and too polite.However, the Tang Dynasty got rid of this and appreciated the decoration. "

"The Tang Dynasty was the heyday of my country's feudal society. Due to the opening up of the Western Regions, a large amount of XJ Hetian jade was imported into the mainland. Therefore, the jade materials of the Tang Dynasty were mainly Hetian jade. Although the production of jade in the Tang Dynasty was not large, its quality All are meticulously crafted, with new developments in their varieties and artistic styles, with obvious characteristics of inheriting the past and ushering in the future."

As the voice fell,

Ye Wen went on to say, "In the jade of the Tang Dynasty, the clothes, hair, flowers and leaves, and feathers are all drawn with parallel thin Yin lines. The flower buds and animal scales are all drawn with mesh thin Yin lines.

All the lines are cut out with thallium, the feet are deep, the middle is thick and straight, the brush is fine and sharp, and the direction of the lines is very obvious.The outer edge of the common human pattern and pattern image has a thick string pattern frame, and the ground inside the frame is concave. On the concave ground, embossed and shaded lines are used to carve out human pattern, pattern, and bird pattern. and other patterns. "

"Jade wares of the Sui and Tang Dynasties used both gold and jade as decorative materials, complementary colors, and jade quality, forming the colorful appearance of jade wares in the Sui and Tang Dynasties. Gold ornaments appeared on jade wares from the Warring States Period to the Han Dynasty. Gold ornaments at that time were mainly used for hanging hooks. , such as gold chains, jade pendants, gold jade belt hooks, etc. The Sui and Tang Dynasties used gold to decorate jade, although it also played a special function, but it was mainly for decoration."

"Jade wares in the Tang Dynasty widely used flower patterns in decorative patterns, which was one step ahead of painting, because the formation of the family of flowers and birds in the history of painting was after the Yuan Dynasty. The flower patterns are very complete, including flower buds, leaves, and flower stems. There are two types of flower patterns in Tang Dynasty jade decorations, modeling and decoration. At the same time as flower patterns, there are wishful cloud patterns, which are often decorated beside human bodies, flowers, and birds."

"The Tang Dynasty was peaceful and prosperous, and the country was prosperous and the people were safe. It was the most special and least restrictive period in Chinese feudal society. It was an open-minded society. in traditional culture.

Jade wares have changed from the ancient style and appearance of the past, and have undergone a radical change. They have appeared in a brand-new appearance, which is quite romantic, showing the strong life atmosphere and unique style of the times, and injecting fresh blood into Chinese jade culture. Innovation and development of jade. "

while speaking,

Chen Mu and others have already walked into the tomb. Compared with a pile of cultural relics,
Everyone's eyes are focused on the coffin of the tomb, which is made of expensive wooden coffin.
There are many patterns carved on the coffin,
At this time,

Chen Xiaoxiao's voice sounded, "Tang Dynasty...before there was Song Dynasty, how long has this Queen Mother of the West lived, and there will be Ming's tomb after that, right?"

"Not necessarily!" Ting Chan said at this time.

at this time,

In the live room,

"Damn it!This Queen Mother of the West is also true and a bit fierce, and she is too alive! 』

"It's not so bad, throughout history, it's more than a little fierce!" 』

"Fuck, if you say that, it is possible that Queen Mother Xi is still alive, and...maybe in this tomb. 』

"I don't know if Queen Mother Xi is pretty or not! 』

"? ?Dude, you are also a fierce person, dare to worry about this?I'm not afraid to go to your house to find you! 』

"..."

……

at this time,

in the tomb,

Just as Chen Mu and others were approaching the coffin, there was a sound of machine running,

immediately,

In front of the coffin, a stone platform rose up, and on the stone platform, there was a beautiful box-like thing,

this moment,
Ye Wen's eyes were straightened, "This...is this the eight-fold treasure letter?! Tang Yizong bestowed gold and silver wares, which are a set of letter boxes enshrining Buddha Sakyamuni's real body and finger relics.

Inside is a sacrificial relic, and the outermost layer is a sandalwood box, which contains three silver treasure boxes, two gold treasure boxes, one jade treasure box and a pure gold pagoda with one eaves and four doors. "

"This... scumbag!"

words fell,

Ting Chan couldn't help but said in surprise, "This thing is very expensive? Professor Ye actually made a swear word. This is something that has never happened before!"

Ye Jin said at this time, "The treasure letter is composed of eight layers, so it is called the eight-layer treasure letter.

The first level: the pure gold pagoda with single eaves and four doors on the top of the pearl,

That is, the place where the Buddha refers to the relics are hidden - a pure gold pagoda with a single eaves and four doors on the top of a pearl.The golden pagoda is 105 mm high. The top of the pagoda is a golden lotus flower holding a golden bead top. The eaves on all sides are raised. There are caviar patterns around the door, and there is a symbolic flying ladder at the bottom of the door to the tower base. It is small and exquisite, resplendent and resplendent. Rod-shaped cross-shaped flowers lined with pearl patterns, the bottom of the waist is in the shape of lotus petals, and the bottom of the silver pillar is also in the shape of an eight-petal lotus.There are three cobalt patterns in the middle, and there is a small ink script on the bottom of the pillar, "South".

The second layer: a golden basket with treasured mother-of-pearl and pearls, and a treasure letter with a stone, which is made of pearls and martial arts stones. The whole body is bordered by carved gold belts, inlaid with jewels, flowers and birds, and the whole body is inlaid with pearls and gemstones, and carved with petals. The pattern is extremely gorgeous and exquisite.

The third stage: a pure gold treasure letter in a golden basket with precious pearls, carved and cast in pure gold, the body of the letter is inlaid with gems of various colors such as red treasure, green treasure, emerald, agate, turquoise, etc., and inlaid with gem flowers, and the top of the cover The red and green gemstones on the sides are inlaid into large and small lotus flowers, and the whole body is inlaid with pearls and gemstones, and carved with petal patterns, which is extremely gorgeous and exquisite.

The fourth weight: the six-armed Avalokitesvara pure gold topped treasure letter, weighing 1512 grams.The cover is carved with double phoenixes and lotus pods. On the side of the cover, there are four auspicious birds chasing around the center. On the front is the six-armed Ruyi Wheel Avalokitesvara, on the left is the picture of Medicine Buddha, on the right is Amitabha, and on the back is the picture of Dainichi The outer wall is chiseled with portraits of Tathagata and Avalokitesvara, or decorated with double phoenixes, accompanied by creeper patterns, or engraved with the image of Vajra Sand making up Shili Buddha, the shape is realistic and delicate.

The outer wall is chiseled with portraits of Tathagata and Avalokitesvara, or decorated with double phoenixes, accompanied by creeper patterns, or engraved with the image of Vajrasandra and Shili Buddha. , with realistic and delicate shapes, rich and vivid scenes, numerous characters and exquisite workmanship.

The sixth weight: the silver treasure letter with the top of the plain face, the seventh weight: the gold-plated four heavenly kings with the top of the silver treasure letter, the eighth weight: the sandalwood wood treasure letter with the silver rib top and the top..."

"The Eightfold Treasure Letter was specially made by the emperor of the Tang Dynasty to place the Buddha bone relic, which shows its high level. The so-called Buddha bone relic is a relic obtained from the incineration of the body of the Buddha Sakyamuni after his death.

There are four Buddha finger relics in Famen Temple, three shadow bones and one spirit bone.And the one placed in the eightfold treasure letter is one of the three shadow bones.The shadow bone is not a real relic bone, but is specially made to protect the relic bone, and has the same value as the relic bone. "

As Ye Jin's voice fell,
Ye Wen continued, "Precious letters are exquisite in workmanship and beautiful in shape, which are rare in the world. Not only in the ancient crafts such as flat carving knife method, Baodian pearl decoration and crown, but also in the shapes of Manjusri and Tathagata carved on the surrounding walls, It is the profound expression of the connotation of Tantric Buddhism, and it is a silhouette of the history of Tantric culture and art.”

"Baohan fully embodies the design concept of the traditional Chinese design culture, which is to convey the way.

The so-called utensils convey Tao means that a physical utensil contains abstract spiritual culture, which makes the objectively existing "utensils" gradually transition from practical to artistic and spiritual fields, and endows them with vitality and culture.In my opinion, utensils are just the materialized form of Tao.
As the soul of spiritual concepts, Tao is often realized through the carrier of material objects.

A box, because of its empty accommodation space, has the function of a container, that is, it has the practical functions of accommodation and storage.

Another box, through the way of the artist, can dominate or render the user, embody a certain spirit or status of the user, and become a master.As the saying goes, the Tao resides in the utensils, and the utensils carry the Tao. There is no difference in one body, and it originates from the two. "

"As a material form, utensils can be spiritualized, and spirit can also be materialized. When an utensil is endowed with a certain idea, it becomes a materialized form of spiritual culture.

The design of the treasure letter is a manifestation of the harmony and unity of the material form of the appearance and the spiritual connotation, as well as the harmony and unity of practicality and aesthetics.

The design of the treasure letter can be described as the "epitome" of the Buddhist spirit. It is a symbol of Buddhists' worship and pursuit of positive results, a symbol of Buddhism, and a carrier of Buddhist statue art.

Therefore, Baohan adopts a rectangular shape with a large physical space in its shape. When it is placed in a temple, it has a majestic, majestic, solemn and stable visual effect, thus highlighting solemnity, solemnity and holiness. "

"In fact, utensil design is also a manifestation of the ideology of the ruling class and a tool to serve the society. On the one hand, the social function of worshiping relics is to cater to the religious psychology of the emperor through the religious function of relic beliefs. Therefore, it is trusted by the rulers , They use it in exchange for the so-called supernatural power to protect and rescue themselves, so as to enhance their self-confidence and sense of self; on the other hand, it is to paralyze the people and warn the people to be devout and Buddhist to escape the sea of ​​suffering, so as to maintain the ruling class rule.

At the same time, many believers sincerely hope that the Buddha can rescue them from the sea of ​​suffering, so that they can live forever and become immortals, so as to achieve great spiritual satisfaction and comfort.

Therefore, Baohan naturally became a medium of communication between humans and Buddhas. It not only existed for the preservation of relics, but also for preaching and preaching.Therefore, Buddhism uses the materialized image of the treasure letter to make people believe that they can get the sympathy and help of the Buddha, so that they can become loyal followers of the Buddha. "

the sound fell,

Li Anche couldn't help muttering, "There are quite a lot of explanations for a box, and it's nothing to look at! However, it's still very valuable!"

Ye Jin said at this time, "This is no longer something that can be measured by money, I really did not expect to see such a treasure here.

Baohan is the mouthpiece of Buddhism, and the decorations on the walls of the box are not only for viewing, but also embody the Buddhist religious ideal of compassion for life.

The decorative patterns used on the treasure letter are not only rich in content, but also contain very distinctive religious and cultural connotations, such as the images of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas such as the Great Sun Tathagata, the Six-Armed Ruyi Wheel, and the traditional Chinese themes of dragons, phoenixes, mandarin ducks, Bodhi tree, lotus, canopy and other decorations appear on the wall of the treasure box, forming vivid pictures.

However, all of these decorations are not for decoration. To a certain extent, the use of these decorations is to obey the needs of religious propaganda and political rule, and become a window for preaching.

For example, on the front of the fourth treasure letter is the image of Avalokitesvara with six arms, on the left is the image of Medicine Master Tathagata, on the right is the image of Amitabha Buddha, on the back is the image of Dainichi Tathagata, and the outer wall is chiseled with images of Tathagata and Avalokitesvara. The mysterious religious color is all the profound expression of the connotation of Buddhist Tantra.

It reflects people's subjective consciousness and psychological feelings such as praying for eternal happiness, immortality, and immortality with objective decorative patterns.

Baohan is to effectively convey the connotation of Buddhist Tantric Buddhism to people through the external form of the decorative language on the wall. After people receive these symbols, they will resonate and form an act of faith.

Object design belongs to the phenomenon of material culture and is the material carrier of spiritual culture.The cultural atmosphere of an era breeds the utensil design of that era, and the utensils of a period or region, whether it is its shape or decoration, can reflect the cultural outlook of that period or region. "

Since then,

Ye Wen looked at Chen Mu, the meaning was obvious, such a treasure must be taken away, otherwise, wouldn't it be buried,
It should be reappeared in the world, more people should see it, and its meaning should be known to more people.

Chen Mu naturally knew what Ye Wen meant, and said slowly, "Moving this eight-fold treasure letter will definitely touch the organ, but even if you don't move, you will touch the organ if you want to be powerful, just take it, get ready and then, I will take it. As long as you move it, the mechanism will start immediately, so be careful."

words fell,

Everyone put on a defensive posture, and they all became vigilant. In fact, they didn't need to be like this, because Chen Mu had already protected them with talismans.

At this time,

Chen Mu stepped forward, quickly took down the eight-fold treasure letter, and asked the archaeological team to put it away.
At the same time, the mechanism is running, the mechanism has been activated, a cold breath rises, and the terrifying power clearly surges.
