Chen Rui travels the world. Everywhere he goes, he will learn about the local culture and customs. For Chen Rui, this is the meaning of travel.
Therefore, every time Chen Rui goes to a remote place in the city and integrates with ordinary people at the bottom of society, he can truly understand the true side of this place-
Chen Rui came to Falkland Road in Mumbai.
There are many fish and dragons here, and there are some ordinary people at the bottom of the city.
On the street, there are clutters, stalls selling fruit, pancakes, messy crafts, woven carpets, and ascetics. They put on shelves in the street, attracting passersby, There are antiques. Stack up a lot of Buddha statues. statue. Antique relics of Buddhist material.
It is very strange that as the four ancient civilizations of India, they have very few cultural relics. Except for the statues of Buddha, Buddha, and Buddhist materials, there is really nothing.
Indian history is basically guessed by Mongolia.
On an antique stall. There are several Buddha statues, bodhisattva statues, and several slabs, which attracted Chen Rui's eyes.
Chen Rui squatted down, picked up a buddha statue, and looked up. This is a stone statue, somewhat incomplete, with a soil color on the surface, covered with small, uneven air holes.
This statue looks a bit like the face of a Greek. Lips are thinner and eye sockets are deeper. The nose is high, and the nose bridge and forehead form a straight Greek nose.
Chen Rui had known Indian Buddhism before, and had some understanding of the development and characteristics of Indian Buddha statues.
The Buddha statue in hand is the Gandhara Buddha statue, which came from the Gandhara area of ​​ancient northwestern India.
In 426 BC, King Alexander of Macedonia invaded the Gandhara region during the Eastern Expedition. Since the Alexander period, some Greek immigrant cities have been established, and Hellenized art has also been brought to India. Hellenized art has merged with India. The symbol of Buddhism forms the Gandhara Buddha statue in Chen Rui's hand.
Chen Rui picked up another Buddha image, which was also a Gandhara-shaped Buddha image.
Chen Rui picked up a slate with text on it, a very old script in India, which Chen Rui could recognize.
Chen Rui put down the slate and asked the stall owner in English, "How much are these things?"
The owner is a middle-aged man with a beard and a little dark skin, wearing a pair of jeans, a black T-shirt, and a slipper on his feet.
The stall owner spoke to Chen Rui in strange Indian-style English. "This Buddha image is Rs 60,000, this Buddha image is Rs 47,000, this Buddha image is Rs 54,000. The four slabs are Rs 77,000 and Rs 65,000."
Hearing that Chen Rui converted the price of U.S. dollars according to the exchange rate of rupees. One US dollar is equal to 59 rupees, and 60,000 rupees are about more than 1,000 US dollars. A stone Buddha statue with a big fist is more than 1,000 US dollars.
Chen Rui shook his head and said, "The prices are too high. The carvings of these stone Buddha statues are very simple, the lines are very rough, and after erosion and weathering, the five views have become very blurred. Moreover, this Buddha statue has lost an arm and has been broken. I Think it's not worth the price. "
The stall owner said to Chen Rui, "It's not expensive at all, I can guarantee that these are all true." With that said, the stall owner said "cultural relics" in Chinese, which means that these things are real cultural relics. .
Chen Rui asked, "How do you guarantee these things are real cultural relics."
The stall owner said, "I dug these things out of the ground."
Chen Rui said, "If you take me to dig out these things, I can buy them all at your price."
"Yes, but tomorrow." The stall owner thought about it and said.
"OK." Chen Rui said.
The stall owner calculated the price and said, "Four Buddha statues are Rs 210,000, three Buddha statues are Rs 140,000, and four slabs are Rs 320,000. You give me Rs 670,000 in total.
Chen Rui took out his wallet and counted 670,000 rupees to the stall owner, and then said, "Tomorrow you take me to dig out these things, and I will give you another 300,000 rupees."
The stall owner opened his mouth so happy that he agreed with a smile.
Chen Rui rented a taxi and returned to the hotel with four Buddha statues, three Buddha statues, and four stone tablets.
First, set aside Buddha and Buddha images.
Place four slate plates on the table, receive a basin of water, take a soft brush, and carefully remove the dirt from the slate.
Half an hour ~ EbookFREE.me ~ The mud on the slate is cleaned, and the ancient writing on the slate is clearer and easier to identify.
This is an ancient Indian script that Chen Rui didn't recognize.
However, there is Baidu.
Chen Rui turned on the computer, opened the browser, and searched for the ancient Indian script. The text on the slate is an ancient Indian script from the 4th to 5th century BC. Chen Rui translated it one by one with the text on the slate.
However, the slate has only four incomplete pieces, and it is not a whole. The information obtained is very limited, and it is incomplete and disorderly.
However, Chen Rui is probably able to know some information.
The incomplete information on the four stone tablets records that in the middle of the 5th century BC, the Buddha was in the Nara Nirvana Plateau in the Khussar. At that time, the sacred Buddha's sacred body was worshiped by ten beings for six days. The clear water was extinguished, and the cremation place was guarded for seven days. During the seven days, all ten living beings of the Buddha worshipped at the cremation place. After cremation, the Buddha's relic was distributed to eight kings through the Brahmin of Fragrance: ⒈Binding dead city 2. State of Mahatu 3. State of Visher 4. State of Gabriella; State of Jerome; 6. State of Ramakya; State of Pilurt; 8. State of Borneo. (To be continued.)
