Treasure Hunt all over the World

The visit is still going on, and time is slowly passing by imperceptibly.

More and more tourists are pouring into the National Museum of Egypt, and the museum is even a bit crowded and noisy.

In addition to tourists from all over the world, among the crowd, there are also some Egyptian antiquities policemen in plain clothes, walking around and looking forward, as if they are looking for someone!

It's a pity that they never found what they were looking for, and everyone was a little discouraged!

"Fade Chen, come over and have a look. There is a statue of a cat here. It looks a bit weird and familiar. I seem to have seen it somewhere, but I can't remember it."

Ye Tian was admiring a stone slab engraved with ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs and various exquisite patterns, when Lin Yu, who was a few meters away, suddenly shouted excitedly.

Obviously, this beauty from Jinmen is a cat lover, so she was so excited after seeing a cat sculpture!

It's no wonder that there are a few girls who don't like such aloof and cute little animals like cats!

Ye Tian turned his head to look over there, and then walked over.

When he came close, he looked at this animal sculpture from ancient Egypt.

This is a statue of the cat god Best in ancient Egyptian mythology. It is about 50 to 60 centimeters high, squatting on a square base, and the stone used for the statue and the base is black marble.

The statue of the cat god Best in front of me is slender, tall and muscular. Judging from the body shape, it should be created based on the Egyptian cat. It looks like the Siamese cat we are familiar with today.

At first glance, this Egyptian cat is sitting quietly on the pedestal, but its front legs are stretched straight, its eyes are alert, it seems to be looking around, and it is always vigilant.

The reason why this cat god sculpture is a bit weird is because of the black marble stone used.

At all times and in all over the world, black cats have been endowed with some mysterious colors, and even considered unlucky animals, which always bring people a strange feeling!

Another point is that there seems to be a bit of playfulness in the eyes of this ancient Egyptian cat god statue, and there is a huge earring hanging on the left ear.

On the chest of this cat god statue, there is an "Eye of Horus" in ancient Egyptian mythology, which symbolizes the protection of the gods and the supremacy of the monarchy.

And between the eyebrows of this statue of the cat god, there is also a scarab that is about to fly.

In ancient Egyptian mythology, scarabs were the amulets of the Egyptian pharaohs. They guarded the pharaoh's mummy in the pyramid and protected the pharaoh from immortality.

In many modern film and television works, the scarab is often regarded as a very evil creature, from hell, closely related to death, and is one of the incarnations of death!

Because of this, Zhao Nan and Lin Yu felt a little weird looking at this sculpture of the cat god Best.

Ye Tian looked at the statue of the cat god Best, then explained with a smile:

"This is the statue of the cat god Best. It can be regarded as a kind of animal worship! In ancient Egypt, the cat was a deified animal. The ancient Egyptians loved cats like crazy, and those who hurt cats would be betrayed." death penalty.

In ancient Egyptian mythology, there was a goddess named 'Best' who often appeared in the form of a wild cat. Because the cat's pupils changed with the light, like the waxing and waning of the moon, Best evolved into the goddess of the moon.

She was the daughter or wife of the sun god Ra, and was seen as the protector of the family, and in some pyramid texts, she was considered the mother and nurturer of the pharaoh, the protector of female fertility.

The cat god Best is also considered the patron saint of Egypt. Although she looks gentle, when an invader dares to covet Egypt's sacred land, she will turn into a lion to defend Egypt's land.

In Egypt, cat god worship has always existed, and now Egyptians also keep cats in their homes. During your travels in Egypt, you will see many statues of the cat god Best and hear many legends about the cat god.

The reason why you think this cat god statue is weird is because it came from a certain pyramid, it was a funeral object of an ancient Egyptian pharaoh, and it was carved with black marble, it looks a bit weird!

Then there are some patterns on the statue of the cat god, such as the "Eye of Horus" on the chest, and the scarab pattern between the eyebrows. In our cognition, these patterns are related to death! "

Hearing this, Zhao Nan immediately said:

"That's right, Brother Chen, especially these scarab patterns are chilling to look at. In the movie "The Mummy", the scarabs gushing out of the ground like a tide are really scary. It's a snap to eat people. !"

"Hahaha"

Ye Tian chuckled twice, and then continued:

"I've also seen The Mummy, and that series of movies is really wonderful, but it's also exaggerated, and the scarabs are too evil and too powerful, even though they are indeed the guardians of the pharaoh's mummy.

Let’s talk about this statue of the cat god Best, there is a reason why you look familiar with this statue. If I guessed correctly, you saw a golden statue of the cat god Best last year!

The golden statue of the cat god Best appeared at a top auction in New York at the end of last year, and was sold for a jaw-dropping price. At that time, the world's major news media had reported this matter!

In addition to the gold statue of the cat god Best, which was auctioned at a sky-high price in New York, there is a bronze statue of the cat god Best in the British Museum, which is deeply loved by people and is a priceless top-level cultural relic! "

As soon as he said this, Lin Yu suddenly continued excitedly:

"I remembered that the golden statue of the cat god Best belongs to Ye Tian, ​​and he led a team to discover it on a German Nacui shipwreck in the English Channel, and it is part of Rommel's treasure.

After the golden statue of the cat god Best was born, it caused a huge sensation at the time, and many news media reported it, including the subsequent auction. No wonder it looks familiar! "

Before the words fell, Zhao Nan said enviously:

"I have to say that Ye Tian is really awesome. Not only is he extremely lucky, but he is also extremely powerful. He discovered shocking treasures one after another, and set off countless turbulent waves.

To be honest, that buddy is simply a god-like existence, and he gives us Chinese people a lot of face! I have watched the live broadcast of their company's every exploration action on the Internet, which is very enjoyable!

I heard that he has also come to Cairo to explore the legendary treasure of Solomon and the Ark of the Covenant, and he lives in the Nile Hotel next door. I wonder if we can meet that buddy, and I want an autograph by the way! "

Hearing this, Ye Tian couldn't help laughing lightly, his eyes showed a bit of complacency.

The god-like existence you mentioned is standing in front of you, introducing ancient Egyptian civilization and history to you two guys. Are you surprised or surprised? Isn't it a little flattered!

Of course, this is just Ye Tian's mental activity, and he didn't resort to it.

After admiring the statue of the cat god Best, Ye Tian and the others turned and left, continuing to appreciate the other ancient Egyptian cultural relics and artworks displayed here, wandering in the splendid river of ancient Egyptian civilization!

In the following time, they followed the development of ancient Egyptian civilization, from the Old Kingdom period to the Middle Kingdom period, to the New Kingdom, until the period of Greek and Roman rule, passing through the entire ancient Egyptian civilization.

Wandering in it, they seem to be walking through a time tunnel, visiting and enjoying the splendid ancient Egyptian civilization thousands of years ago, and are deeply intoxicated by it.

During this period, Ye Tianjian might absorb some spiritual energy, and quickly completed the task of replenishing spiritual energy, and the spiritual energy in his eyes was almost overflowing!

The top-level antiques stored in the warehouse of the Egyptian National Museum did not escape his eyes. He used perspective to see them clearly, and appreciated them all!

During this period, he also discovered some hidden and unknown secrets.

It's just that I don't understand the meaning of ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs and various symbols and decorations, so I can only write down those secrets forcibly, and go back and study slowly!
