Before they knew it, Chen Tian and his party quickly arrived at the east bank of Daquangou, 25 kilometers southeast of Dunhuang, between the Mogao Grottoes between Sanwei Mountain and Mingsha Mountain. Although they were mentally prepared, when Chen Tian, Ning Xiaoxiao and Song Qianyue saw this shining pearl embedded in the yellow sand of the sky, they were still sincerely amazed.
Mogao Grottoes are located on the waist of an inconspicuous earth-yellow mountain range, hidden by sparse woods. A riverbed that has long dried up is located under its feet, looking desolate and bleak but extremely mysterious. But when you see countless caves of all sizes distributed on a cliff about 1,600 meters long in the north and south, stretching away like a long gallery, magnificent and vast, you will be deeply attracted by it.
"This is Mogao Grottoes, this is the cultural treasure house of China!" At this time, Zhao Guoqin said such words proudly to Chen Tian, Ning Xiaoxiao and Song Qianyue, his face full of proud expressions.
The handsome officer Xiao Chen next to him also reached out to signal to Chen Tian, Ning Xiaoxiao and Song Qianyue, "Everyone, I have contacted President Jin of Dunhuang Research Institute. He will soon come back to take us to visit and introduce the history and current situation of Mogao Grottoes..."
Before the handsome officer Xiao Chen could finish his words, a hurried speech came from behind Chen Tian, Ning Xiaoxiao and Song Qianyue: "Genuine Zhao, Major Chen, and all the distinguished guests, hello you! I'm sorry, I've been waiting for you for a long time, for a long time..."
When Chen Tian turned around, under his eyes, a chubby old man was jogging all the way, followed by a thin and tall woman. The fat old man was wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, with a very amiable expression and ran over very urgently. It seemed that he attached great importance to and respected the veteran General Zhao Guoqin.
Seeing this scene, Zhao Guoqin shouted with a smile: "Lao Jin, slow down! We have just arrived. You are not late, and we have not waited for a long time!"
After saying that, Zhao Guoqin laughed heartily, resolving Dean Jin's nervousness.
Dean Jin wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hand and said with a breath: "General Zhao, why didn't you tell me earlier when you come and let me prepare in advance? By the way, this is my student, the Uyghur girl Direliba, who has a very deep understanding of Dunhuang culture and Mogao Grottoes. When I happened to catch up, let her take the responsibility of being the commentator. Don't you mind?"
"I can't even have a beautiful woman to serve as a commentator. I'm not too late to welcome her, so why would I mind?" Zhao Guoqin smiled.
Chen Tian looked up at the woman named "Direlipba" in front of him. He saw that Direelipba had a tall, thin body, very well-proportioned, and had the style of a girl from the Northwest. What is most unforgettable is Direelipba's beautiful face. Perhaps because she is a Uyghur, her eyes are deep and her nose is tall, and she has a unique charm that attracts the soul.
"Hello, Direliba, my name is Xiao Chen!" The handsome officer Xiao Chen smiled and introduced himself while extending his hand to Direliba, wanting to shake hands with the beautiful Direliba.
After all, a man has no resistance in front of such a stunning beauty.
Kedi Reliba raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and even if he had dealt with it, he had no intention of extending his hand.
The handsome officer Xiao Chen's hand was frozen there, neither stretching nor shrinking, and it was extremely embarrassing to stand there.
Dean Jin saw the embarrassment of the handsome officer Xiao Chen, immediately took a step forward, held the handsome officer Xiao Chen's hand tightly with both hands, and said with a smile: "Haha, Xiao Chen, welcome to our Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes. I will let Direliba lead everyone to the Buddha cave to take a look!"
President Jin's kind-hearted behavior resolved the embarrassment of the handsome officer Xiao Chen. The handsome officer Xiao Chen took the opportunity to go down: "Then there is Laudi Reliba, hahaha..."
Chen Tian saw this scene and couldn't help but smile, but at this moment he noticed that there seemed to be a pair of extremely hot gazes staring at him. Chen Tian was shocked and looked up immediately, but when he looked over, he immediately touched a pool of lake water with blue waves.
What is surprising is that this lake water is actually Direliba's eyes, clear and mysterious, which makes Chen Tian's heart move.
"This woman named Direliba... is a bit strange!" Chen Tian thought to himself, but he saw Direliba twisting and walking gracefully in front of him. Chen Tian was stunned and suddenly felt that the fairy spirit on his back was a bit similar to the white-clothed Li Xian, but he had his own strengths.
In this way, everyone, led by Direliba, walked along the road and plank road in this art hall outside the border, feeling the shock and beauty of this art treasure house.
Under the introduction of Direliba, Chen Tian and his friends knew that there were more than 700 caves in the Northern Wei Dynasty and the Northern Wei Dynasty, which were divided into two districts. The southern district is the main body of the Mogao Grottoes, and is a place for monks to engage in religious activities. There are nearly 500 caves, all with murals or statues. Most of the northern districts are places for monks to practice, live and die after they die.
President Jin told Zhao Guoqin a little apologetically that in order to protect the paintings and statues in the cave, all the caves of Mogao Grottoes are not equipped with lights, and each cave is equipped with advanced electronic monitoring equipment to ensure that cultural relics are protected. Therefore, everyone is given a high-intensity flashlight for searching.
Moreover, each cave is locked. Direliba held a large key in his hand and opened the cave. He took Chen Tian and his party to visit. He locked it immediately after coming out, which showed that the protection was very strict.
But even so, everyone felt that following Direliba, walking in, not the dark caves, but the gurgling river of history.
I have to say that Direliba's explanation is very stylish. Not only is the word "just" but also quotes it widely. The stories and allusions from ancient and modern times, China and abroad are told from her cherry mouth, becoming extremely vivid and vivid.
Everyone was fascinated by the fact that Mogao Grottoes was a large grotto temple that integrates painting, sculpture and architectural art, mainly murals and statues as the supplement. They were also very indignant about the history of the turbulent society at that time, the Ming and Qing governments, and the neglect of the Taoist priest Wang Yuan, which led to a large number of treasures being stolen abroad.
The upright Song Qianyue even clenched her pink fists and shouted indignantly at Direliba: "Miss, I'm so angry when you say it! The precious scriptures, documents, embroidery and portraits in the Sutra Cave were actually sent away by the stupid bull-nosed Taoist priest, resulting in the priceless cultural relics being robbed. Do you think this is angering?"
After saying that, Song Qianyue was still screaming "ahah" and looked extremely indignant.
Direliba was not surprised to see Song Qianyue's indignation. She only waited for Song Qianyue to vent her annoyance before she said quietly: "In fact, in the 26th year of Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty, the Buddhist Cave that shocked the world. Unfortunately, under the specific historical background of the incompetence of the late Qing government and the invasion of China by Western powers, Western explorers such as Britain, France, Japan, and Russia quickly followed one after another, using unfair means to deceive a large number of Buddhist Cave cultural relics from Taoist Wang, and stored them in many public and private collection institutions in Britain, France, Russia, and Japan, so that our research on Dunhuang often had to go abroad."
When Direliba said this, he looked at Dean Jin of the Dunhuang Research Institute. He saw Dean Jin slowly took off his gold-rimmed glasses and said to everyone in a very heavy tone: "Dirliba is right. This is the most painful thing for our research on Dunhuang culture. It was originally something from China, but it had to be studied abroad. It has to be said to be a great irony!"
Zhao Guoqin nodded and said, "So, only when the country is strong can the dignity of the nation be defended! We must be proud of this prosperous era, and we should cherish the beautiful life now!"
At this time, the group had already arrived in an extremely magnificent cave without realizing it. When Direliba opened the door lock, everyone opened the flashlight with a "splash". When they saw a mural in the Tang Dynasty style in front of them, they were shocked both their bodies and minds.
This is a work from the prosperous Tang Dynasty. It has a history of more than a thousand years, but now it looks very good in color. Looking at each realistic mural that appears vividly on the wall, almost everyone can't believe their eyes, and their hearts have been baptized and sublimated.
Chen Tian was shocked to see that the protagonist of the mural was Sakyamuni Buddha in the center, with disciple Ananda on the left and the king on the right, all of whom were listening to the Buddha's preaching intently. The Buddha's clothes on the mural were beautiful and noble and elegant; Ananda was wearing a colorful cassock and colorful robes, and the king was wearing armor and stomping on the little devils, and each one was lifelike.
Ning Xiaoxiao stroked his heart with her hands, which was beating with excitement, and sighed from the bottom of her heart: "It's incredible! The real paintings of Dunhuang's walls are the most treasures of the national treasure. Whether it is the flying sky that rebounds the pipa in tradition, the ladies who reflect the life of the palace at that time, the polo pictures, or the statue of Buddha Nirvana that reflects the history of Buddhism, they are all exquisite!"
President Jin laughed twice, shook the mural with a flashlight and said proudly: "This is certain! Look at these simple strokes, all the imagination spaces are beating! While browsing, it seems that the long river of history is broken in my mind, and a prosperous era in the past emerged..."
But as soon as Dean Jin said, he suddenly screamed in surprise, and the flashlight in his hand fell to the ground with a "clang".
Everyone was very surprised by Dean Jin's unusual actions, and couldn't help but feel very surprised. At this time, Direliba helped Dean Jin pick up the flashlight on the ground and asked in confusion: "Dire Jin, what's wrong? Is the air not circulating and it's a bit uncomfortable?"
"Portrait, portrait..." Dean Jin said in a trembling voice while pointing at the mural, his face was even worse than a piece of white paper.
Chen Tian, Ning Xiaoxiao and Song Qianyue were confused. They turned their heads to look at the exquisite murals and then looked at the serious-looking Dean Jin. They didn't know what happened for a moment.
