The visit continues and time passes slowly and unconsciously.
More and more tourists are pouring into the National Museum of Egypt. The museum is even a little crowded and noisy.
In addition to tourists from all over the world, among the crowd, there are also some Egyptian antiquities policemen in civilian clothes, walking around and looking around, as if they are looking for someone!
Unfortunately, they never found the target they were looking for, and everyone was a little discouraged!
"Chen Fei, come and take 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 Tianjin 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 cold and cute little animals like cats!
Ye Tian turned his head and looked over there, then walked over.
As he approached, he looked at this animal sculpture from ancient Egypt.
This is a statue of Bast, the cat **** in ancient Egyptian mythology. It is about 50 to 60 centimeters tall and sits on a square base. The stone used for the statue and the base is all black marble.
The statue of the cat **** Best in front of us is slender, tall and muscular. Judging from the body shape, it should be 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 straight and its eyes are alert. It seems that it is looking around, always vigilant.
The reason why this cat **** sculpture is a bit strange is because of the black marble stone used.
At all times and in all over the world, black cats have been given some mystery by people, and are even considered to be unlucky animals. They always give people a weird feeling!
One more thing, the eyes of this statue of the ancient Egyptian cat **** seem to be a bit playful, and there is a huge earring hanging on the left ear.
On the chest of this statue of the cat **** is engraved the 'Eye of Horus' from ancient Egyptian mythology, which symbolizes the blessing of the gods and the supreme power of the king.
Between the eyebrows of this sculpture of the cat god, there is also a scarab flapping its wings about to fly.
In ancient Egyptian mythology, scarabs were the amulets of the Egyptian Pharaohs. They guarded the Pharaoh's mummy in the pyramids and protected the Pharaoh from everlasting life.
In many modern film and television works, the scarab is often considered a very evil creature, coming from hell, closely linked to death, and is one of the incarnations of death!
Because of this, Zhao Nan and Lin Yu felt a little weird when they looked at the sculpture of the cat **** Best.
Ye Tian looked at the statue of the cat **** Best, then smiled and explained:
“This is a statue of the cat **** Best, which can be regarded as a kind of animal worship! In ancient Egypt, cats were deified animals. Ancient Egyptians loved cats so much that people who hurt cats
In ancient Egyptian mythology, there is a goddess named 'Best', who often appears in the form of a wild cat. Because the cat's pupils change with the light, like the waxing and waning of the moon, Best evolved into the moon goddess.
She is the daughter or wife of the sun **** Ra and is regarded as the protector of the family. In some texts in the pyramids, she is considered to be the mother and nurturer of the Pharaoh and the protector of female fertility.
Best, the cat goddess, 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 and defend Egypt's land.
In Egypt, the worship of the cat **** has always existed, and now Egyptians also keep cats at home. During your trip to Egypt, you will see many statues of the cat **** Bast and hear many legends about the cat god.
The reason why you think this statue of the cat **** is weird is because it comes from a certain pyramid and is a funerary object of an ancient Egyptian pharaoh. It is carved from black marble and 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 perception, these patterns are related to death. ! ”
Hearing this, Zhao Nan immediately said:
"That's right, Brother Chen, especially these scarab beetle patterns, which are chilling to look at. In the movie "The Mummy", the scarabs pouring out of the ground like a tide are so scary. They taste like they eat people. Call me Lisuo!”
"Hahaha"
Ye Tian chuckled twice, then continued:
"I have also watched "The Mummy". That series of movies is indeed exciting, but it is also very exaggerated. The scarabs are described as too evil and too powerful, even though they are indeed the guardians of the pharaoh's mummy.
Back to the statue of Cat God Best, there is a reason why this statue looks familiar to you. If I guessed correctly, you saw a golden statue of Cat God Best last year!
The golden statue of the cat **** Best appeared at a top auction in New York at the end of last year and sold for a jaw-dropping price. At that time, major news media in the world reported this!
In addition to the gold statue of Cat God Best that was sold at a sky-high price in New York, there is a bronze statue of Cat God Best in the British Museum. It is deeply loved by people and is a priceless top cultural relic! ”
As soon as he said this, Lin Yu suddenly continued excitedly:
"I remembered that the golden statue of the cat **** Best belonged to Ye Tian. He led a team to discover it on a German shipwreck in the English Channel. It is part of Rommel's treasure.
After the golden statue of the cat **** Best appeared, it caused a huge sensation at the time. Many news media reported on it, including the subsequent auction. No wonder it looked familiar! ”
Before he finished speaking, Zhao Nan said with envy:
"I have to say, that guy Ye Tian is really awesome. Not only is he extremely lucky, he is also extremely powerful. He has discovered one shocking treasure after another and set off countless stormy waves.
To be honest, that guy is simply a god-like existence. He is so embarrassing to us Chinese people! I watched every exploration operation of their company live online, and it was 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 is staying at the Nile Hotel next door. I wonder if we can meet that guy and ask for his autograph by the way! ”
Hearing this, Ye Tian couldn't help but chuckle, with a bit of contentment in his eyes.
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 bit flattering?
Of course, this was just Ye Tian's mental activity and he did not resort to it verbally.
After admiring the statue of the cat **** Best for a while, Ye Tian and the other three turned around and left, continuing to appreciate other ancient Egyptian cultural relics and artworks displayed here, wandering in the splendid ancient Egyptian civilization!
In the following time, they followed the development of ancient Egyptian civilization, from the Old Kingdom to the Middle Kingdom, then to the New Kingdom, to the period of Greek and Roman rule, passing through the entire ancient Egyptian civilization.
Walking there, they felt like walking through a time tunnel, visiting and appreciating the glorious ancient Egyptian civilization thousands of years ago, and were deeply intoxicated by it.
During this period, Ye Tian occasionally absorbed some spiritual energy, and soon completed the task of replenishing spiritual energy. The spiritual energy in his eyes was almost overflowing!
The top-notch antiques and cultural relics stored in the warehouse of the Egyptian National Museum could not escape his eyes. He used perspective to see them clearly and appreciate 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 forcefully write down those secrets and study them slowly when I go back!
