Chapter 2899: Death journey
Following the golden statue of the snake **** in ancient Egypt, Ye Tian and the others saw the golden statue of the eagle god, which symbolized the rule of Upper Egypt, and a golden eagle mask with golden light.
Next, they visited and appreciated many valuable top antique cultural relics and works of art, as well as many exquisite statues, and many animal statues.
Including the golden chariot of ancient Egypt, the retractable golden wooden canopy umbrella stand used by the pharaohs when traveling, the extremely gorgeous Tutankhamun'Queen' lion golden throne, and the bag for Tutankhamun's rest during his lifetime. Golden chaise lounges, queen seats with jewels and ivory inlaid mats and so on.
In addition, there are huge jewelry boxes decorated with a lot of gold, gems of various colors, ivory, ebony and blue tiles, various dazzling gold accessories studded with top gems, and a large number of golden dolls and animal statues used for funerals, Tutan The guardian statue of Kamon, the statue of Anubis lying on the altar, and so on.
There is also the golden coffin of Capinoco with Tutankhamun's entrails, and four alabaster jars that are creepy and exquisite when you look at them. The four alabaster jars are filled with Tutankhamun. His four internal organs, stomach, intestines, lungs, and liver, are full of death, as if from hell!
Next there are the same exquisite gold alabaster perfume bottles, the table lamp that Tutankhamun's mother gave him, condensing the warm love between mother and child, the exquisite alabaster wish cups, and two life-size Tutankhamen Ebony gilded statues and other top antique cultural relics and artworks, and more!
Without exception, each of these top antique cultural relics and artworks from Tutankhamun’s tomb is priceless, and the degree of exquisiteness is breathtaking.
Looking at these dazzling and priceless treasures, even if Ye Tian has discovered a lot of amazing treasures and has handled countless top antique cultural relics and works of art, he can't help but be fascinated and amazed!
As for Zhao Nan and Lin Yu, the mouths of these two guys had hardly closed, and they kept marveling. The four eyes of the two were about to turn golden!
At the same time they were amazed, the two guys also felt chills and goose bumps all over their bodies.
"I'll go! This is a world of death! Or it is more suitable for the underworld! Every antique cultural relic and artwork displayed here is a funerary object, and it is related to death.
Some antique cultural relics and works of art are engraved with extremely vicious curses. It is frightening to think about it. It's too scary. How could there be such a museum in the world? Today is really an eye-opener! "
Zhao Nan said in a low voice, spitting out a few words.
While saying this, the guy also glanced at a showcase not far away, with an expression of keeping away from him, and shivered.
What was displayed in the showcase were the four alabaster jars containing Tutankhamun's internal organs. On the four alabaster jars, four heads of goddesses were engraved, and the carvings were vivid and exquisite!
Then there is the magnificent Canopus visceral coffin that matches it. Around that golden visceral coffin are four beautiful and unusual statues of Isis!
Although the ancient Egyptian cultural relics are of great value and are the top antique cultural relics, in the eyes of Zhao Nan, they are too sensible. It is better to stay away!
Compared with Zhao Nan, Lin Yu's performance is even more exaggerated. The beauty whispered in a slightly trembling tone:
"That's right, it's indeed too ridiculous here. We ran all the way to Egypt, and co-authored here to visit the cemetery!"
"Hahaha"
Ye Tian chuckled lightly, then whispered:
"No way, ancient Egyptian art mainly serves the king and the huge tomb decoration after the king's death. Most ancient Egyptian artifacts are from the tombs of the pharaohs, that is, the pyramids, which are funeral objects.
The antique cultural relics and works of art we saw in the major museums in Egypt are all this kind of funerary. It is said that visiting a museum is similar to visiting a cemetery, which is different from museums in other parts of the world! "
Upon hearing this, Zhao Nan and Lin Yu both showed a trace of disgust on their faces, but they didn't say anything.
Afterwards, a few of them went to the next showcase and continued this tour of Tutankhamun's cemetery!
About half an hour later, Ye Tian and the three of them came to Tutankhamun's golden coffin, and together with others, they visited the treasure of the Egyptian National Museum.
As the name suggests, this is the coffin of ancient Egyptian pharaoh Tutankhamun. It used to contain his mummy. Now this pharaoh mummy has been removed from the coffin and saved separately!
Tutankhamun’s golden coffin is divided into two parts. The outer coffin is the outer coffin, which can also be called the outer coffin. The inside is the golden coffin that contains the mummy of the pharaoh.
The outer coffin is divided into five parts, which are the outermost wooden cabinet, the linen coffin cover, the two-layer wooden cabinet, the three-layer wooden cabinet, and the inner wooden cabinet.
Among them, the outermost wooden cabinet and linen coffin cover are too large for transportation and display. They are not in the Egyptian National Museum. They are still placed in the Tomb of Tutankhamun in the Valley of the Kings in Luxor and are protected.
The other three layers of outer coffins are displayed in the corridors of the Tutankhamun exhibition hall of the Egyptian National Museum. They are huge and covered with huge bulletproof glass showcases!
The largest is the two-story wooden cabinet, which is five meters long, three meters wide, and two meters eight meters high. Its size is equivalent to a garage, and it is no problem to park an SUV in it.
The surface of this wooden coffin is covered with gold leaf, which is magnificent and magnificent, and there are many ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs and various exquisite patterns carved on it, mainly related to death and sacrifice.
The volume of the three-layer wooden cabinet and the inner wooden cabinet is relatively smaller, decreasing in order, and the top is also covered with gold leaf, engraved with ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs and various exquisite patterns.
At first glance, these gilded outer coffins are like pieces of huge gold, emitting brilliant golden light, making people's eyes dizzy!
Under these golden wooden outer coffins, there is a huge, heavy and unusual sarcophagus, which is also covered with gold leaf, engraved with a large number of ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs and various exquisite patterns.
Moreover, this sarcophagus has a very good airtightness. It is mainly used to protect the pharaoh’s mummy and isolate it from the outer wooden coffin. This golden sarcophagus is also placed in the corridor of the Tutankhamun exhibition hall.
Inside this sarcophagus is the real inner coffin.
The inner coffin is divided into three layers, which are one-layer human-shaped wooden coffin, two-layer human-shaped wooden coffin, and the innermost human-shaped gold coffin with pharaoh’s mummy.
The surface of the human-shaped wooden coffin on the first floor and the human-shaped wooden coffin on the second floor are also covered with gold foil, which is dazzling and gorgeous, and the wooden coffin is engraved with ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs and various exquisite patterns.
The meanings expressed by these words and patterns are different from the words and patterns engraved on the outer wooden cabinets, and there are many mysterious and even vicious spells!
The most eye-catching place is the golden statue of Osiris on the lid of the coffin, which can also be called the golden statue of Pharaoh.
Osiris is the Pluto in ancient Egyptian mythology and the **** of plants, agriculture, and fertility. He is in charge of the underworld and enforces the judgment of whether a person can receive eternal life after death.
Its characteristics are obvious. The lower jaw has a slightly curved beard, and the hands are crossed in front of the chest holding a flail and a scepter that symbolizes supreme power. The sculptures are exceptionally beautiful and lifelike.
In ancient Egyptian mythology, Osiris was once an Egyptian pharaoh, but he was killed by his brother, the evil **** Seth, and his body was divided into fifteen pieces and hidden in various parts of the mainland.
His wife Isis, with the help of Anubis, found the fragments of Osiris's body, but only found thirteen pieces, but the **** were eaten by fish.
Next, Isis and Anubis wrapped up the corpses, made the first mummy in the history of ancient Egypt, and buried the mummy.
On that night, Osiris was resurrected. Although he was only resurrected for one night, he gave birth to a son, Horus, the **** of vengeance!
After years of hard work and repeated **** battles, Horus eventually defeated and killed Set and avenged his father Osiris.
The weapon he used to kill Set was the scepter and flail left to him by his father Osiris.
This battle was seen by the passing sun **** Ra. After the battle, Ra appointed Horus as the new generation of ancient Egyptian king to rule this fertile and magnificent land.
And Osiris became the king of the underworld, in charge of the underworld, and executed the judgment of whether people can get eternal life after death!
Since then, the Egyptian pharaohs of all dynasties will be mummified after their deaths and buried in a human-shaped coffin. The lid of this human-shaped coffin is the image of the king Osiris.
On this human-shaped wooden coffin, carved with ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs related to death and resurrection, the underworld, and a large number of mysterious and vicious spells, to protect the pharaoh's mummy in the human-shaped coffin from being disturbed!
Like the outer wooden cabinets and sarcophagi~www.wuxiaspot.com~The first-level human-shaped wooden coffins and the second-level human-shaped wooden coffins are also displayed in the corridor of the Tutankhamun exhibition hall, covered with bulletproof glass display cases for people to visit Appreciate, but can't touch!
Of course, it is estimated that few tourists dare to touch these humanoid wooden coffins full of death, mysterious, and countless vicious curses, unless he is bored!
In the corridor of the Tutankhamun exhibition hall, Ye Tian and the others walked forward with the flow of people, while visiting these splendid but creepy luxury coffins.
Looking at these dazzling golden coffins, both Ye Tian and Zhao Nan had a gloomy feeling, like walking in an ancient cemetery, very crippled!
Especially Lin Yu, listening to Ye Tian's explanation and looking at these ancient coffins full of death, his eyes were already full of fear!
Zhao Nan's performance is relatively better, but not much better!
While they were talking, they had come to the innermost golden human-shaped coffin, which was the golden coffin with Tutankhamun’s mummy, the treasure of the Egyptian National Museum!
