Chapter 207 The only two in the world

The same murals, the murals of the dilapidated temples have been destroyed, leaving only faint traces. The murals of the new temple in front of us are clear and elegant, and wonderful.

However, through some pattern comparisons, everyone has every reason to believe that the murals of the new temple should be closely linked.

Everyone's eyes suddenly became more scrutinized.

Baiye, this kid... is not kind.

They felt that Bai Ye must have seen the murals in the dilapidated temple, but they did not publish them to the public. After all, it was because he was too selfish.

It seems that these people have misunderstood something.

Bai Ye blinked his eyes and decided to wait and see first, without rushing to explain.

At the same time, Yu Hao finished looking at the photo and looked up and asked, "Brother Fan, this is..."

"This is a Laojun Temple on Beimang Mountain in Luoyang. It has been abandoned for many years and no one pays attention to it." Fan Ji'an explained: "But in recent days, the murals painted by Baiye have become popular, and only then have someone noticed that the murals in Laojun Temple are very similar to those painted by Baiye, so I took some photos and uploaded them to the Internet."

While speaking, he turned to Baiye and said meaningfully: "You can see that you are not unfamiliar with the Laojun Temple in Beim Mountain."

“…”

Bai Ye remained silent and wanted to complain in his heart.

Not unfamiliar with a ghost.

He didn't know that in this world, the Laojun Temple in Beim Mountain was not destroyed. He just read relevant classics and records in the original time and space.

On the east and west walls of Laojun Temple, there is a picture of the Five Saints' Yuan Dynasty drawn by Wu Daozi. The poet Du Fu visited the murals at that time and wrote a poem. However, in this time and space, it seems that Du Fu's poem was lost, but the remains of Laojun Temple remained, so how can you reason about it?

But this is also an opportunity to go with the flow.

At that moment, Bai Ye nodded and said, "Yes, I'm not unfamiliar with it. I've been there...that happened several years ago. That's why I said I've seen similar works."

Um!

The others reacted.

Bai Ye really never said that the mural was his own creation and always emphasized that there was an original work. But I didn't tell you where the original work was.

From this perspective, he was not at all wrong.

Even if you are a little selfish...

This is in line with human nature and is not worthy of criticism.

Even Yu Hao didn't say anything, but just turned around and said, "Yu Chi, arrange it, I'm going to Luoyang."

"Go together!"

Fan Ji'an also had such a plan, and the others followed suit.

Bai Ye didn't plan to go, but was dragged away by Yu Chi. He struggled depressedly: "What are you doing? I still have to draw."

"What are you drawing, come back and draw again."

Yu Chi Zhenzhen said, "You go with us and lead us."

...

Bai Ye was speechless, and he had never been there, so what way to take? Sure enough, he told a lie and needed hundreds of lies to fulfill it.

I had no words all the way, and my group arrived in Luoyang in the evening and spent the night in the local hotel.

The next morning, they went to Beimang Mountain, but were surprised to find that there were endless pedestrians on the road. When they inquired, they were all going to Laojun to watch, and they happened to walk along the way.

Only among the passers-by did they know...

On the Internet, not only are they following photos of Laojun Temple, but some local artists and archaeologists also heard about this and gathered Laojun Temple yesterday.

After the news spread, there were naturally many people watching the fun. Now, Bai Ye didn't need to lead the way. The group quickly arrived at Beimang Mountain along the crowd.

Beimang Mountain, located on the south bank of the Yellow River, is the remnant of the Qinling Mountains and the branch of the Wushan Mountains.

Since the founding of Luoyang, the nobles and ordinary people of all dynasties have been basically buried on Beimang Mountain.

For thousands of years, the number of tombs in Beimang Mountain is simply impossible to count.

In the Tang Dynasty, some people wrote poems, leaving behind famous quotes such as "There are few idle land on the Beimian Mountain, all of which are old tombs from Luoyang people." "Why don't you follow the Dongluo River? Who is buried in Beimian Mountain?"

It is because there are many imperial tombs, tombs and famous tombs on the mountain, so that for many years, the mountain has been a holy place for tomb robbers. Some experts speculate that Beimang Mountain has been basically hollowed out by the tomb passage, so sinking, landslides and other conditions often occur.

However, it is because everyone's eyes are always focused on the imperial tombs and ignore some ancient buildings on the mountain.

For example, Laojun Temple is not remote but not easy to reach.

While climbing the mountain, Fan Ji'an talked casually: "In fact, there were many palaces and Taoist temples on Beimang Mountain in the Tang Dynasty."

"The ancients believed that the dragon vein of Luoyang, the thousand-year-old imperial capital, was located on the line from Cuiyun Peak to Longmen Yique, and crossed Luoyang City from north to south. This is also the central axis of Luoyang City in the Sui and Tang Dynasties. The Shangqing Palace of Taoism's ancestral temple is located on Cuiyun Peak, the dragon head of this dragon vein."

"Current records of literature and history, during the reign of Emperor Gaozong of Tang Dynasty, the emperor suddenly felt in Luoyang Palace and asked the ministers who were close to him what ancient sites there were. The old minister reported: There is Laozi Temple in the north of the imperial city. Every time he prayed, he had inspiration. He ordered the Luoyang chief minister, Xu Lishi, to build a Qing temple specially, named Shangqing Palace."

"The emperor of the Tang Dynasty recognized Laozi, the ancestor of Taoism, as his ancestor, so he became the Shangqing Palace and built it. Emperor Gaozong of Tang immediately pursued Laozi and called Emperor Taishang Xuanyuan, and created the ancestral hall."

"So, there was a Taoist temple and palace temple that worshipped Lao Tzu during the Tang Dynasty, which were not only Taoist beliefs, but also considered the emperor's ancestral temple and ancestral hall."

"This is why Taoist temples spread all over the world in the Tang Dynasty."

Fan Ji'an sighed: "What a pity, I checked the information these two days and found that Laojun Temple should be the remains of the Shangqing Palace. After experiencing the Anshi Rebellion, Huang Chao Uprising, Zhu Wen usurping the Tang Dynasty and other incidents, the Shangqing Palace, which should have been magnificent, only such a little remains..."

Palaces, temples and pavilions.

Palace, the meaning of the imperial palace, where the emperor lives. From this we can see how spectacular the scale was when the Shangqing Palace was built.

However, no matter how magnificent the building is, it cannot survive the baptism of time.

It may be a natural disaster or a human being, and it will be destroyed by the once-in-one.

But everyone had no feelings because when they came to Beimang Mountain, you are welcome to say that every grass, every tree, every stone, and every tiles here have witnessed the vicissitudes of history.

If we talk about the historical cultural heritage, which can be compared with Beimang Mountain, it is probably only related to the tombs and towns in Central Chang'an. There is only two in the world, and there is definitely no third.

Some people finally saw Laojun Temple with a pilgrimage mood soon after.

When we visited the scene and saw the building with our own eyes, we realized that the Laojun Temple was even more broken than the one in the photo, and it was devastated.

A cordon was set up around the dilapidated temple, and no idle people were allowed to approach. Some archaeological teams were digging and exploring around the dilapidated temple, looking very busy.

After asking someone to negotiate, with the names of Yu Hao and Fan Ji'an, the group got what they wanted and entered the ruined temple and noticed the situation of the mural.
