There are Silkworm Bushes of the Marquis of Shu, whose eyes are longitudinal, and who are called kings at the beginning. The second king is known as Bai Irrigation. The second king knows the fish. - "Huayang Guozhi"
preface
People do not know much about the history of antiquity, and many historical stories have mythological overtones, in addition to the Yellow Emperor, Yan Emperor, and Xuan You, there was also an ancient Shu state in the ancient period. This ancient Shu state is recorded in ancient literature, and these people who lived in the ancient Shu state in the southwest were a tribe of the ancient Qiang people. Later, after development and reproduction, the Shushan clan appeared, because the women of the Shushan clan married the Yellow Emperor and gave birth to silkworm bushes, and this person named silkworm bushes was the first king of the ancient Shu kingdom.
Dig up the soil and burn bricks to find jade
Many ancient tombs were discovered by accident, and in the 80s, two masters from a brick factory wanted to dig up some soil to burn bricks, and the two came to the place where they were digging and began to load soil. In the process of digging the soil, the two actually dug out some things with a relatively hard texture. After cleaning up these things, the two brick-burning masters found that they had actually dug up some jade.
Although it is not known what age these jade objects are, the two masters knew that these "treasures" dug out were cultural relics, so the two people immediately reported them to the local authorities. After learning that a large number of jade objects had been dug up near the brick factory, the relevant local departments also immediately assigned someone to take charge of the matter.
Blockade site excavations begin
After the archaeologists arrived here, they saw the jade that had been excavated before, and with years of experience, experts judged that it should be a large tomb that needed to seal off the site and carry out excavation work. After the archaeological excavations began, many artifacts were quickly cleared, including bronzes, agates and jade.
The number of artifacts excavated in this tomb is very amazing, and the archaeological team is also stepping up its work to find so many cultural relics, which also makes these archaeologists very happy. In the process of excavation, a goldfish made of pure gold was found, the whole shape came to life, after clearing out the surface of the dirt, the light shone on the fish, the whole fish seemed to be alive.
The owner of the Golden Scepter turned out to be the Fish King
The excavation was halted after the discovery of this lifelike goldfish, and the expert group called in armed police to protect the cultural relics. After the arrival of the armed police, archaeological activities continued. It was not easy to dig out the fish, and in the process of excavation, it was found that the fish was not isolated, and that the tail of the fish was connected to a stick, and the outside of the stick was also wrapped in gold.
After carefully digging out the entire stick, people were surprised to find that it was a scepter 143 cm long, 2.3 cm in diameter and 463 grams in net weight. In addition to the decoration of the fish on the whole scepter, one is inserted on two fish with their backs facing each other, and under the fish there are two large birds with opposite backs. At the very bottom of the scepter are two symmetrical human heads, one with a jagged crown and triangular earrings tied to the earlobes.
summary
This discovery is enough to shock the archaeological community, because in some ancient history records, the Yu Wei King, that is, the third Wan of the ancient Shu Kingdom, has such a scepter, and this excavated scepter is enough to show that the ancient Shu Kingdom is real, and it is likely that this is the capital of the Ancient Shu Kingdom.
The discovery of this scepter is of great significance to understanding the history of the ancient Shu kingdom, and this scepter also shows that the ancient Shu state at that time was a regime that combined theocracy. In short, with the progress of archaeological work, it will also make people have a clearer understanding of the ancient Shu state.
