Chapter 50-49° Do overseas cultural relics need to go home? (6)
Because of his profession, the first thing the inspector did when he entered the exhibition hall was to head towards the only ancient corpse displayed inside, the mummy.
That’s right, their museum not only broke off the top of someone else’s pyramid, they even stole their body!
The inspector looked at the mummy in front of him and suddenly frowned.
"Mr. Curator, there is something wrong with the mummy on display here."
The curator immediately came over with a serious look on his face: "Is there a problem? Inspector, have you found anything wrong? I don't find any problem."
"Look at this mummy. The test results show that it is from that era. It also shows Egyptian bloodline. It is undoubtedly authentic!"
"This is truly a corpse that cannot be deader!"
The inspector's face twitched.
"Oh no, I think you misunderstood me. I didn't think it was still alive. In fact, it is indeed a standard mummy."
"But the problem is—"
"Why are there two mummies in the display case?!"
The inspector yelled in a state of collapse.
"Do you know what it means when a corpse suddenly appears?"
"This is a big deal, do you understand?"
That’s right, in this glass display case which is smaller than a single bed, there are two mummies!
The two of them were huddled in a glass cabinet, looking extremely uneasy.
What is even more imaginative is that the white bandages on their bodies are randomly wrapped around each other and are all connected together!
It was like two people fighting over a quilt, but in the end they ended up entangled together.
In the glass case, the mummy was about to cry.
What is going on?!
What happened to the eternal peace that is promised after death?
He finally encountered a ghost month and a full blood moon, which gave him a chance to revive a little. But as soon as he opened his eyes, he found an arhat standing outside, who asked politely if he could come in and hide.
He was just about to reply that he needed to think about it, but unexpectedly, the Arhat statue came in without saying a word!
He even tore off the bandages on his body and wrapped them around his own body!
This unexpected scene completely frightened the mummy!
You know, he had a whole pyramid of burial objects! Why did they have to steal his bandages?
Don’t you have any sense of boundaries?
So the mummy got furious on the spot and started playing tug-of-war with the bandages on his body, trying to get them back.
However, the Arhat statue smiled compassionately.
"This donor, you are obsessed!"
"You are wrapped in bandages and turned into a mummy. What is the purpose?"
The mummy was stunned by this sudden question. He was stiff for a long time before answering.
"To resurrect, of course!"
When he was alive, he was a great nobleman in Egypt, a wealthy man, and he had royal blood!
He chose to become a mummy so that he could be resurrected through a ceremony one day and enjoy the luxury of the nobility again.
The Arhat statue has his hands folded together.
"Then you have been resurrected now, haven't you?"
The mummy was stunned.
yes!
He is indeed resurrected now!
"So, please lend me these bandages!"
Without saying a word, Luohan wrapped himself up with the extra bandages. Fortunately, the bandages on the mummy were thick enough to wrap them both tightly.
They didn't lie down again and pretend to be dead until the search personnel came in.
But the inspector knew that if he didn't deal with this inexplicable extra body, his career would be over!
Don't panic, think of a solution first!
The inspector's back was soaked with sweat from his anxiety. Seeing this, the curator quickly took out an oriental feather fan from behind and fanned him.
"Don't worry, young man. What you see is normal!"
"Isn't it just one more mummy? Believe me, it's no big deal."
The inspector was a little anxious. He pressed the curator's shoulders with both hands and felt that his hands were very hard, but he did not grasp this detail at the moment.
"This is clearly an extra body! An extra dead person! Do you understand? This means homicide!"
The curator shook his head.
"Young people still know too little. Who told you that mummies are dead people?"
"Mummies are not dead people!"
The inspector was stunned. He didn't expect that he was talking about a homicide case, while the curator was arguing with him about the definition of a mummy. His mind was a little confused for a moment.
Aren’t mummies dead people?
This is what was written in the movie “One Hundred Thousand Gods” that I watched when I was a child!
The curator laughed and said, "If you don't believe me, I'll prove it to you... Come on, slap him!"
Suddenly, one of the two mummies in the glass case sat up straight, stretched out its bandaged hand, and slapped the inspector directly!
In an instant, the inspector felt his head buzzing. He didn't know whether it was because of the slap or because he was scared by the fact that the mummy could move.
"Now you believe it! How could a corpse slap you?"
Looking at the inspector who was covering his face with one hand and looked like he was about to cry, the curator softened his tone.
"They choose to be mummies, and they are waiting in line to be resurrected, so they are just people who have not been resurrected yet. How can you say they are dead? How rude!"
"This view... I am speechless."
"A mummy in a state of superposition of life and death, right?"
"I chose to take the exam so that I could be the top scorer. I am just the last one for now. How can you say that I am a poor student? That is so rude!"
"Do you dare to say these words in front of your parents holding feather dusters? How dare you say that I respect you as a man!"
Perhaps it was because this slap came too unexpectedly and it opened up the inspector's Ren and Du acupoints, making him feel for a moment that this statement... was very reasonable!
The curator holding a feather fan also added fuel to the fire with a calm expression.
"Do you believe it? If you don't believe it, I can wake up the other mummy and have it slap you in the face, too."
Inspector: ...
"No, that's not necessary!"
"Since this is ruled out as a homicide, I should at least ask how the two of them ended up in the same glass tank, right?"
The inspector's remaining sanity was still struggling, and he risked his life to ask his questions.
"You want to meddle in other people's affairs in bed? You are meddling too much!"
"But even if they are wrapped in bandages, you can tell that they are two men..." After blurting out this sentence, the inspector's heart immediately skipped a beat and he thought to himself, this is not good!
You know, in these "free" countries, people are very serious about gender divisions! This is a topic that people dare not talk about too much!
Sure enough, after he said this, everyone in the venue stopped their tense search and looked at the sheriff with condemning eyes!
"How can you say such a thing? You should know that in our Sunset Country and Free Country, there are now more than 50 genders!"
"Your words are full of discrimination! How dare you assume the gender of a mummy?"
"My gender is an attack helicopter, and the gender of the person I'm going to marry is a Wal-Mart shopping bag. Are you discriminating against us too?"
"This is a terrible thing! Mr. Inspector, I think you need to stop everything you are doing, hold a press conference, and bow to apologize to everyone!"
Verbal condemnation alone was not enough! Some of the angry employees had even rolled up their sleeves, ready to teach the inspector a lesson!
The whole scene suddenly became chaotic, everyone started fighting, some people wanted to escape, while others just stood by and added fuel to the fire - you know, watching other people fighting is much more interesting than being pulled in to work overtime at night to look for cultural relics!
This is a godsend for the cultural relics! It allows them to sneak into the next venue!
In the glass display case, the Arhat statue took off the bandages on its body and tried to sneak away when no one was paying attention.
The original mummy sat up and wanted to condemn him, but the next moment, the Arhat, who was more powerful, grabbed his neck, and when he opened his mouth wide, he stuffed the bandage into his mouth, successfully blocking his scream.
Next to the golden spire, the bronze double-ram tripod and the pottery tripod also remained lying on the ground, slowly moving towards the next exhibition hall, like two big little snails.
However, in the mural, the routes of the three female Bodhisattvas are obviously much more tortuous, but also more hidden.
There are no other ancient Egyptian murals on the wall, but there is a modern poster used by the museum to recruit employees. Apart from the text, there is only a very realistic photo of a female HR.
But posters are also paintings and can be used!
So the three female Bodhisattvas moved to the recruitment poster on the wall, and the painting style immediately became realistic, as if they were played by real people, wearing flowing clothes and standing lifelike behind the female HR in a suit.
Although the painting style is the same, the styles of the clothes are too different, which makes the original black female HR in the picture look as if she had accidentally entered a fairy tale drama, with a very obvious sense of separation.
However, the recruitment advertisement where they are now is still some distance away from the door!
So, how do you get to the next venue?
There is actually a way.
Right next to the door, there was only an "Emergency Exit" sign with a running man emitting a faint green light!
What’s even better is that there is an emergency exit sign like this every three or five steps throughout the entire corridor!
Just in time to get to the next venue!
So the next moment, the little green man on the emergency exit sign was suddenly pushed aside, and in its original position, three simplified little men with the same painting style appeared, also taking big strides, shuttling across each emergency exit sign!
Until the next venue.
