Chapter 163 Ragnarok and the World Tree
Bronze sacred tree?

Even if you don’t know much about the Sanxingdui ruins.

You must have seen the photo of this bronze sacred tree.

Because the bronze sacred tree has appeared in many novels and movies.

But where did this image come from in the first place?
In fact, before the Sanxingdui ruins were excavated.

This sacred tree already exists.

That is in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas".

Some viewers heard what Ye Zhen said about the bronze sacred tree.

They had just been immersed in what Ye Zhen said, which was already breathtaking enough.

Many people have almost forgotten.

This is the third excavation of the Sanxingdui site.

What is the most important and magical thing about bronze.

It’s that bronze divine tree!
Behind Ye Zhen is the tall bronze sacred tree.

“This bronze sacred tree also comes from the No. [-] sacrificial pit.

But at the beginning, the bronze sacred tree was just some scattered fragments.

No one has any idea what this is.

And in order to restore this bronze sacred tree, cultural relic restoration experts spent ten years.

Only then did the broken bronze sacred tree repair [-]% to [-]%.

Now everyone can see the restored bronze sacred tree in the museum.

And the largest bronze sacred tree is 396 centimeters, nearly four meters.

The pictures we see now are usually of the largest bronze sacred tree.

And during the exhibition, we saw that the bronze sacred tree needed to be hung with our current steel wires.

Otherwise, the bronze sacred tree may collapse due to its center of gravity. "

Following Ye Zhen's guidance, everyone saw many steel wires hanging around the bronze sacred tree in the picture.

"Imagine that in ancient times, there was no such thing as steel wire.

After it was made, it couldn't have been hung by something.

It shows that the ancient people of Sanxingdui had extremely superb craftsmanship.

Now we can't even restore the bronze sacred tree to stand firm on its own.

The ancients of Sanxingdui could already do it at that time.

Everyone looked carefully at the bronze sacred tree, which was divided into three parts.

The top part is missing, and it is speculated that the top part may be a sacred bird.

The divine bird that represents the sun.

Below are three bronze branches supported by nesting craftsmanship.

Each one is a beautifully crafted bronze branch with three birds on it.

The same goes for the two floors below.

A total of nine bronze birds hang high on the branches.

If you add the missing top layer, there are ten bronze divine birds.

At the bottom of the base are three bronze feet.

Miraculously, there is a bronze dragon on the base, a ferocious-looking bronze dragon.

This is the complete picture of the Bronze Sacred Tree. "

In fact, after mentioning this, a myth emerged in the minds of many viewers.

Ten divine birds, three-legged golden crows, and the sun!

The audience exclaimed.

"Is this the Fuso Sacred Tree? The legendary place where the three-legged Golden Crow inhabits."

"It looks like! It's so similar. This is something from myths and legends."

"The Sanxingdui ruins really like to worship the sun. I didn't realize it before. Now that the bronze sacred tree came out, I understand everything."

"No wonder I like sacred birds so much. This bronze sacred tree is actually the Fuso sacred tree?"

"No wonder there was that bow and arrow on the golden scepter just now!"

"But I remember there is no dragon or anything like that under Fuso? Isn't this the Fuso Sacred Tree?"

There are still different opinions on what the true form of this bronze sacred tree is.

Ye Zhen said with a smile: "Did everyone think of the Fuso Sacred Tree immediately?
That's right, the nine restored bronze divine birds and the missing divine bird on top.

There are a total of ten bronze sacred birds, which are easily connected to the legendary Fuso sacred tree.

"The Classic of Mountains and Seas. Overseas Eastern Classic" records: "There is a hibiscus on the Tang Valley, where I bathe for ten days, in the north of Heijia.

"The Classic of Mountains and Seas, Great Wilderness East Classic": There are supporting trees on the Tang Valley, one saying "Fang Zhi" and the other "Fang De", both of which are written in Wu.

This is the record about the Fusang Sacred Tree in the Book of Mountains and Seas.

However, this bronze sacred tree may not be just a fuso sacred tree.

It may also be the legendary Jianmu.

Jianmu is said to be the channel between humans and gods.

It is said that the Yellow Emperor relied on Jianmu to travel between the upper and lower realms.

"The Classic of Mountains and Seas - Hai Nei Jing" records: The building is a tree with hundreds of branches without branches, with nine vines and nine wolfberry trees underneath. It is actually like hemp, and its leaves are like awns. It is made by the Yellow Emperor.

It is translated.

Jianmu, it is a hundred feet tall, has no branches, and has nine curved branches at the top.

There are nine intertwined tree roots below. The fruits it bears are like hemp fruits, and the leaves are similar to awn leaves.

At that time, Taihao ascended to the sky with the help of building trees, which were planted by Huangdi himself.

But no one noticed that there was an evil dragon entrenched at the bottom of the bronze sacred tree.

Do you think of anything? "

Obviously it is difficult to find such records in Chinese myths and legends.

According to what Ye Zhen said, this bronze sacred tree may not refer to a kind of sacred tree.

It may be a mixture of several sacred trees, both Fusang and Jianmu, and it may also be the legendary Wakamuwa.

After thinking about it, the audience didn't seem to find any Chinese myths related to evil dragons and sacred trees.

"Unexpected, but this must be the Fuso Sacred Tree."

"I dare say this is the Fuso Sacred Tree."

"Isn't Jianmu the legendary passage for gods and humans to come and go?"

But Liu Yan, who was at the scene, thought of a possibility.

That sacred part is still tattooed on her chest.

Liu Yan whispered: "The Kabbalah Tree of Life."

Kong Sisi turned her head and glanced at Liu Yan, "What did you say?"

Liu Yan glanced at Kong Sisi with contempt.

Ye Zhen said: "In Nordic mythology, there is a world tree.

This World Tree constructs the entire world.

The world is attached to this world tree.There are three thick roots under the World Tree.

The first root of the tree goes deep into Asgard, and under the root is the Urd Spring. Every day the gods gather next to the spring for meetings and discussions.

The second root penetrates deep into Jotunheim, the home of the giants. Under its roots is the Fountain of Mimir, a fountain of wisdom and knowledge.

The third root goes deep into Niflheim, the land of fog, and beneath its roots lies the spring of Hwagmir.

Is it the same as the base of the Bronze Sacred Tree, which has three bronze feet?
The most amazing thing is that there is a poisonous dragon Nidhogg under the World Tree, which will keep biting the roots of the World Tree.

The day it successfully chews up the roots of the tree will be Ragnarok in Northern Europe.

Is this very similar to the bronze sacred tree at our Sanxingdui site? "

It’s actually related to Norse mythology?

No wonder the audience just didn't expect it.

“So it’s not our Chinese myth!?”

"I just said that I couldn't think of anything related to this."

"So this bronze sacred tree is still a world tree!"

"This must be the collective subconscious!"

Apparently those historians were shocked.

They thought that the bronze sacred tree might be the Fusang sacred tree or Jianmu.

But they never imagined that this would be the World Tree in Norse mythology!
Some archaeologists also exclaimed.

"It's so similar, it has the same symbolic meaning!"

"How could this be? Could it be that foreign Norse mythology comes from us!"

"I see. Is this dragon actually Nidhogg?"

Some modern historians think so.

In the eyes of the ancestors of the ancient Shu Kingdom, this bronze sacred tree has the ability to communicate with spirits, spirits, and the sky.

Reflecting the worldview of the ancients, this may be the cosmic tree belonging to the ancients.

Such a mysterious existence.

The Kabbalah Tree of Life is actually a process of climbing.

Climb all the way up from the bottom to the root and the beginning.

It is the path to God. Isn’t this the function of Jianmu?
Lao Luo in Yanshengli heard Ye Zhen's explanation.

He couldn't help but pat his thigh.

"Why didn't I think of foreign myths?"

"This turns out to be a really evil dragon, one that eats tree roots."

"That's it!" Lao Luo was also convinced by Ye Zhen.

Therefore, this bronze sacred tree is the most important cultural relic in the Sanxingdui site.

Ye Zhen gave everyone some time to digest this time.

"Everyone now understands how mysterious the civilization at the Sanxingdui Ruins is.

The world tree in Norse mythology.

There are also seashells from the Indian Ocean, which were used as currency in ancient times.

Possibly from ivory in East Asia.

Ancient Egyptian golden scepter.

There are also jade articles and bronze statues from the Central Plains civilization.

All these treasures are gathered here.

It is no exaggeration to say that all nations will come to Korea. "

After Ye Zhen said this, it was really the case!

It seems that civilizations from all over the world have more or less traces here.

Could it be said that this was the center of the world back then?
As long as people in the industry heard Ye Zhen's words, they would immediately feel like they were electrocuted.

“Could it be that there is an ancient Silk Road that has not yet been discovered one day?”

"It is precisely because of this that the things here in Sanxingdui are so different in style."

"Is it true that the whole world is not the royal land?"

"That makes all sense!"

They couldn't wait to dig inside this legendary ancient Silk Road.

Or what kind of world passage did the ancients have?Can it lead to somewhere else?

Is it just that we modern people have not discovered it?

“So the Sanxingdui ruins may have been the most prosperous trading center in the world back then.

Because silk is produced here, and the silk here is something that is loved all over the world.

They use their most precious things to trade with us.

Sanxingdui also integrated the styles of civilizations from all over the world at that time.

Ivory from East Asia, seashells from the Indian Ocean, and ancient Egypt loved the golden scepter.

As well as jade and bronze statues from the Central Plains.

There is also the civilization of the ancient Shu Kingdom itself. "

It turns out that the ancient Shu Kingdom was such a prosperous place in ancient times!

Because silk brought all the world's treasures here.

It turns out that the world has been communicating a long time ago.

It's not as closed off as we thought.

Just when everyone thought it was going to be over.

Someone remembered a question.

"This seems to be something from the third dig."

"That's right, it seems to be the fourth excavation now, and the 21st century has already begun!"

"Yes, I have seen the excavation process."

So what was unearthed during the fourth excavation that was even more shocking?
Ye Zhen smiled and said: "Some smart viewers must have thought of it.

In the early years, the fourth excavation was carried out and many cultural relics were cleared.

The things I just mentioned are just things from the No. [-] and [-] sacrificial pits.

And after the 21st century, it will also be after our technology becomes more advanced.

Sacrificial pits No. [-] to No. [-] were discovered, a total of six!

So imagine, what are the things unearthed in these six sacrificial pits?
If you paid attention to the news at that time, you must have seen a lot. "

Just the sacrificial pits No. [-] and [-] are already so amazing.

Six sacrificial pits were actually dug behind it.

I don’t dare think about what else is inside?
You won't dig out the giant, will you?
If this is the case, is there no longer any barrier between myth and reality?
However, much of what was excavated is still being cleaned up.

Some things haven't been announced yet.

But Ye Zhen has obtained some information about the fourth excavation through special channels.
