Chapter 1025: Paradox

"However, the Luojiao did not steal the most valuable bronze sacred tree, nor did they steal the Four Goat Fangzun, the bronze sun wheel, the sun sacred bird, the bronze mask, and the bronze head of a man. They tried their best to take huge risks, but they did. In order to steal the lowest value of these bronze artifacts unearthed at the'Sanxingdui' site, the thorn flower bronze ancient mirror." Bai Yifan said, "Therefore, there must be a secret that we don't know."

After a pause, he added: "And the value of this secret is quite high, so large that the Pope who had suffered a great deal in Kyushu, can forcibly overcome his heart for those big men in the Kyushu national martial arts circle. I would not hesitate to make a desperate bet to put the entire Luojiao’s combat power on, and steal this ancient bronze mirror with thorns from the Palace Museum."

"If you say that, this ancient bronze mirror, which looks nothing special, really hides a big secret that we don't know." Fan Yi frowned, "And this secret, in Luojiao, should be Only a few people are qualified to know, maybe only the pope himself knows, and even the two bigwigs of the'Arbitration of Forces' and the'Inquisition' don't know why."

"That's why I said I wanted to see the actual bronze mirror with thorns and flowers with my own eyes." Bai Yifan said, "but it doesn't matter. I still carry something that Luo Jiao also tried to get at any cost. From this thing, maybe you can slowly figure out some of the secrets of the ancient bronze mirror."

Fan Yi and Xiao Ce immediately became interested, and asked in unison: "What is it?"

"It's also an ancient mirror." Bai Yifan said, unbuttoning the inner pocket of his jacket, and took out from the inside the bronze mirror with thorns that he had photographed at the black market auction of the Yuquan Palace Hotel in Yanjing. "It's just, no Bronze, but brass."

"The pattern on this mirror seems to have many similarities with the pattern on the bronze mirror in the photo on your phone just now." Fan Yi looked at this small bronze mirror with thorns carefully, "but The age of this bronze mirror is not too far away, at most it looks like the middle of the sun and the moon dynasty. It is at least two thousand years away from the'Sanxingdui' site in Bashu, Kyushu, and it may be more than that."

"However, judging from the thorns flower pattern on the body of this bronze mirror, this bronze mirror was obviously designed and built by craftsmen from the Sun and Moon Dynasty imitating the stolen bronze mirror in the Palace Museum." Xiao Ce said He suddenly frowned, "However, as far as I know, the "Sanxingdui" site in Bashu, Kyushu, was discovered for the first time. It should have been in the pre-state period. The first official archaeological excavation was In 1986, the archaeological excavation work jointly conducted by the National Archaeological Team of Kyushu and the Archaeological Experts of the Palace Museum. I remember that information was reported by many sources in the America at the time."

Bai Yifan and Fan Yi naturally understood the meaning of his words-

Since the "Sanxingdui" site in Bashu was not formally excavated by the archaeological team until 1986, and only a small area of ​​two cultural relics in the "Sanxingdui" was discovered before, it means that it was in the Sun Moon Dynasty. The "Sanxingdui" site is a relic buried in the ground. Whether it is the bronze sacred tree, the square statue of the four sheep, the bronze sun wheel, the sun sacred bird, even the bronze masks and bronze heads, they must have been deeply buried at that time Buried in the ground.

So, the question is, where did the craftsman of the Sun Moon Dynasty who created this bronze mirror with thorns get the "reference" from?

You can't just design it casually, and then create a road with thorns that is very similar to the ancient bronze mirror in "Sanxingdui".

But to say that this bronze mirror of thorns flower that has been stolen by Luo Jiao and returned to the Vatican has been unearthed during the Sun and Moon dynasty, so it may become a certain or a few court craftsmen imitated." "Reference object", but it doesn't make sense logically.

First of all, antique cultural relics such as bronzes have been buried underground, have been unearthed, and later buried underground, then the degree of patina and weathering on the bronzes will have different changes.

Had it been placed a few decades ago, these changes might not be so easy to identify when they were completely relied on the eyes of archaeologists for human identification.

However, as a necessary carbon fourteen detection instrument for archaeological identification, it has been invented for more than 20 years and has been used in archaeological identification. With the accuracy of the instrument, it is absolutely impossible to "miss" or "wrong". "Judged" such a situation.

In the photo on Bai Yifan’s phone, the data card next to the ancient bronze mirror clearly stated the time when the ancient bronze mirror with thorns was unearthed and the date of its identification. There was no “second unearthed” in it. According to the description, it is basically certain that this ancient bronze mirror was the first time to "see the sky" during the comprehensive archaeological excavation of the "Sanxingdui" site in 1986.

In other words, the possibility that the craftsman who built the bronze mirror with thorns and the sun and the moon has seen this bronze mirror with his own eyes is infinitely close to zero.

Secondly, in Kyushu, the ancients used the tradition of burial.

From the emperor to the flat-toed common people, during the burial, they would bring some of their favorite or more expensive items in the coffin for their burial.

Therefore, there was the profession of touching gold in the three hundred and sixty lines, and even in certain dynasties, there was an "official position" specializing in touching gold, the most famous being the "Lieutenant of touching gold" under the command of Emperor Wu of Wei, Cao Sang.

The seven-star sword that Cao Sang dedicated to Dong Zhuo was stolen from an ancient tomb. Later, after Dong Zhuo died, the sword was returned to Cao Sang's hands and accompanied him after his death. Buried.

Those antique cultural relics "unearthed many times" basically come from this way.

Therefore, if the ancient bronze mirror with thorns and flowers stolen by Luojiao in the Palace Museum really appeared in the hands of a certain craftsman of Riyuechao, then it should “see the sky again” again, it should not be in “Sanxingdui”. The ruins should be in the hands of a certain group of gold thieves, a black market auction, or a foreign cultural relic auction.

It can be said that the sun and moon craftsman who created this bronze mirror with thorns, designed and created these bronze mirrors with thorns without seeing this bronze mirror, but it is hard to make sense. of.

Whether you have seen it or not, there are logical paradoxes.

Therefore, Bai Yifan hoped to see the actual bronze mirror with his own eyes.

Others may not be able to directly see its hidden secrets from the ancient bronze mirror, but for Bai Yifan who has the "strongest card king system", perhaps an [identification card (primary)] may be lost, the truth of everything It will all come to light.

What's more, this system, which has always been silent, has now undergone more and more changes. It seems that there is some power that is gradually unraveling the limitations of primary cards.
