Chapter 1275 – Golden Scepter

“Crystal Skull?”

To say that the three objects inside the most attractive Zhuang Rui, there is nothing more than the crystal skull placed in the center.

The entire crystal skull was no different from life-size, and the skull’s dental bed was neatly inlaid with two rows of upper and lower teeth, all carved out of crystal.

The eyes of the skull, is embellished by round crystals, revealing two holes, the size of the five proportions, and Zhuang Rui in the Beijing University Institute of Archaeology every day to see those human skull specimens are generally the same.

Just such a crystal skull, is Zhuang Rui second time to see, this will also be his second crystal skull skull.

Only this transparent skull, showing a light blue, and Zhuang Rui last time in the pirate island in that one slightly different.

And let Zhuang Rui surprised, this crystal skull although contains extremely thick aura, but he can not draw from it, no longer like the last time that with the help of the crystal skull upgrade in the eyes of the aura.

“Could it be that only the first one can draw aura?”

Zhuang Rui rubbed his hand over the smooth surface of the skull, his mind churning with thoughts, at the initial sight of this crystal skull, he was full of thoughts that the aura in his eyes could be upgraded once more!

“Forget it, don’t be greedy.”

After thinking for a while, Zhuang Rui dumbfounded, this person’s desire is endless, his eyes can get a mutation, itself has exceeded common sense, it is hard not to also want to upgrade to the hero that saves mankind like Ultraman not?

Zhuang Rui does not want to think about the skull, standing next to Peng Fei is out of the blue, “Brother Zhuang, this skull in addition to the color is not the same, the shape and the pirate island is exactly the same ah?”

Zhuang Rui smiled at his words and said, “Yes, counting this crystal skull, now the world has found three, all with different colors, it seems that the Mayan legend could still be true!”

“What Mayan legend? Why am I thinking of sleeping when I look at this thing?”

Zhou Liang listened to some puzzled, he was staring at the skull, only feel a little dizzy, but did not see what different places to, in the heart just defined it as a work of art.

“These are all foreign legends, there are several different ways of saying it!”

Zhuang Rui laughed, he got from the last crystal skull, but also really went to study the relevant records, found that there are about the crystal skull claims confusing, so far failed to have an umpire.

In the American Indians, there is an old legend that circulates: in ancient times, there are 13 crystal skulls, can talk and sing.

Hidden in these crystal skulls is information about the origin and death of mankind, which can help mankind to solve the mystery of life in the universe. According to the legend, people must find all the skulls before December 21, 2012.

That day is the end of the Mayan calendar that has been cycling for 5,126 years, and unless the 13 skulls are brought together and placed in the correct position, the Earth will fly off its axis, and only then can the supernatural power of the skulls save the planet.

This is what has been rumored as the 2012 catastrophe theory, and with the approach of the year 2012, there have been a number of researchers of mystical phenomena in recent years who have been searching for these crystal skulls to draw mystical power from them.

And according to the book “The Mystery of the Crystal Skull”, there are 52 crystal skulls in total. The Mayans have 13 of them, and the others are scattered in sacred places around the world, including many other Native American tribes in the Americas, but also tribes such as Tibet and Aboriginal Australians.

The book says: 12 of these skulls have movable mandibles, called “singing skulls”, which store a great deal of knowledge, and are gifts brought by aliens from the constellation of Sirius to the people of Earth; in order to assist in the dissemination of knowledge, the aliens made another 40 skulls on Earth with immovable mandibles called “talking skulls”, and the others are scattered throughout the world. “talking skulls”.

However, these two crystal skulls that Zhuang Rui obtained, both of which had inactive mandibles, were carved out of a single block of crystal, and he wondered if there were really any crystal skulls in the world with movable mandibles?

“Haha, really if there is 2012, then we all hide you there!” Zhou Liang laughed out loud after hearing Zhuang Rui’s explanation, treating it as if he was listening to a story.

Zhuang Rui also do not think, although before from the first crystal skeleton to draw a large number of aura, but hands in this but no reaction, I think this thing is also just a long time ago artwork only.

After diverting his thoughts, Zhuang Rui put his attention on the other two objects, placed on the left is a scepter, the body is golden, the top set with a dazzling ruby, crystal clear, flashing attractive luster.

Around the ruby, there is a circle of diamonds the size of a grain of rice decorated, the top of the ruby set off more and more gorgeous, down is the grip, slightly concave inward some, Zhuang Rui stretched out his right hand to hold a little bit, just to put his palm into it.

“Good heavy ah!”

Zhuang Rui gently weighed, so a meter long and short scepter, its weight at least in more than five kilograms, in the grip handle, also carved with wave wave pattern pattern, extremely exquisite production.

Zhou Liang is a few insights, opened his mouth and asked: “Zhuang old brother, this thing is estimated to be at least should be a foreign monarch used, right?”

“That’s right, from the pharaohs of Ancient Egypt, to the rulers of Ancient Greece, all like to hold a scepter in their hands, and there are excavations in Egypt, but gold scepters like this one are extremely rare, and the artistic value is very high.”

Zhuang Rui nodded at the words, this gold scepter from the quality of the material, not less than the Queen of England used that cross scepter, although there is no Queen of England scepter on the Carignan I rare diamonds, but the ruby on this is also very rare, especially the ruby under the diamond-setting process, showing a very high artistic level.

“Brother Zhuang, how much can this thing be worth?” Li Zhen spoke out and asked, for people who are not playing collection, its market price is the most direct way to reflect the value of an object.

“How much can it be worth? This is not easy to say.”

Zhuang Rui pondered for a while, then said, “This object, if you can test out its provenance and origin, and meet the people who like it, it is estimated that it is worth at least five hundred million dollars or more.”

“How much …… more? Five hundred million? Or dollars?”

Zhuang Rui to this scepter estimated price, but heard Colonel Zhou directly silly eyes, after hearing this price, he was born want to take it for himself.

“Oh, Brother Zhou, art is priceless, this thing in my hands, is 800 million dollars, I will not sell it, it may represent the splendor of a dynasty, the story behind it, is the most intriguing.”

The greatest pleasure of archaeologists is to discover the truth behind history, so that the history of thousands of years ago is reproduced, which is like a camera flashback, leading people back to the ancient times, swimming in the long river of time.

“No wonder your kid is so rich, dare I say this money comes a little too easily?”

Zhou Liang listened to even smack his lips, he knew a little bit of Zhuang Rui’s worth, but also really thought that Zhuang Rui’s money is all from buying and selling these objects?

“Brother Zhou, I am a typical brave character, these things to my hands, only in and out.”

Zhuang Rui smiled and did not explain, to be honest, Zhuang Rui initial capital accumulation, in addition to the early out of the manuscript and a painting of Tong Pak Fu, basically by gambling in the income.

To Zhuang Rui has a certain capital, especially after the opening of the museum of stereoscopy, he got the object, is a piece of all have not sold, otherwise to Zhuang Rui’s value, absolutely can be among the top three of China’s rich list.

Material needs for the current Zhuang Rui, has not been too attractive, his current biggest wish, is to set the light museum to build a large comprehensive archaeological museum with international standards.

And the appearance of this golden city, also makes Zhuang Rui from his own desire is a step closer, as long as he can restore this golden city to reproduce, will absolutely shock the whole world science and technology industry.

“Alright, let’s see what’s in this box!”

After joking with Zhou Liang and the others for a while, Zhuang Rui put his attention on the last object, which was a box made of what kind of wood Zhuang Rui couldn’t tell what it was made of, the whole body was grayish-brown in color, and there wasn’t a trace of insects or decay on it, it was very well preserved.

The whole box is flat shape, about forty-five centimeters long, wide in thirty centimeters or so, the box surface engraved with a variety of bird and flower patterns, lock nose buttons are made of pure gold, quite exquisite.

“What kind of contraption is this ……? Mo …… could it be a gold book leaf that records words?”

Gently opened the box, at once, a piece of bright golden light into the eyes of the crowd, which let has been acting very calm Zhuang Rui also excited.

Because what was placed in the box was actually a book made of gold as thin as cicada yarn, and since Zhuang Rui hadn’t used his aura to survey this wooden box before, the sight that appeared in front of his eyes made him greatly surprised as well.

As mentioned more than once before, the most precious value of a tomb or a site unearthed does not lie in the object itself, but in the text recorded in the object, which is the most important clue for human beings to discover ancient civilization.

Zhuang Rui does not know much about the history of ancient civilization, so he needs to rely on textual information, and the appearance of this gold book will undoubtedly give the best explanation of the origin of this gold city.

Simply turned the pages of the book, Zhuang Rui found that, although counting the cover, a total of only eight sheets of gold paper, but each sheet of paper are filled with words written from right to left.

Zhuang Rui believed that as long as these words were translated, the secrets of the Golden City would be self-evident.
