章 1125: CHAPTER 954 ZOMBIE SUIT PART 2
As Zhou Xixian looked upon the set of gold-haired jade clothes before him, he was in awe. The quality of jade used, the number of pieces and the level of craftsmanship were all superior to the set unearthed from the tomb of the king of Chu.
It was almost too good to be true, and Zhou Xixian couldn't help but wonder if it was authentic.
The sheer magnificence of the gold-haired jade garment was unparalleled, and if it was indeed genuine, its worth was beyond measure. Any amount of money could not quantify the value of such a masterpiece.
Ye Bo's curiosity had been piqued by the missing pieces on the face of the golden jade dress. As he examined it closely, he realized that something was amiss. Peering through the normal light, he scrutinized the exposed face beneath the jade robe, and his eyes widened in shock.
"It's a corpse!" he exclaimed, his voice barely above a whisper.
Zhou Xixian was taken aback when he saw the real corpse in front of them and asked, "Mr. Su, what's going on? You got a real corpse here."
"Wait a moment, something seems amiss here," Ye Bo remarked.
As archaeologists, both Ye Bo and Zhou Xixian were taken aback by the discovery, but they swiftly composed themselves and knelt down for a closer inspection. "It's highly unlikely that Mr. Su would bring a lifeless body to the museum without any justification."
To their surprise, upon closer examination, the corpse appeared to have slightly shriveled baby skin, giving the impression of an aged body. However, the face was remarkably well-preserved and lifelike.
Zhou Xixian's attention was drawn to the introduction text placed next to the corpse. After a moment, he exclaimed in shock, "Hold on, what is this?" as he read through the contents.
As Zhou Xixian read out the introduction text, Ye Bo couldn't help but freeze in shock for a moment, before uttering in disbelief, "5,000 years ago? How can that be possible?"
"This is preposterous! I refuse to believe it. A perfectly preserved corpse with a jade robe from five thousand years ago? It's impossible," Zhou Xixian shook his head vehemently, clearly in disbelief. No wonder he found it difficult to accept, as the idea was simply too astounding.
Speaking of ancient corpses, one cannot overlook the well-known Loulan female corpse. Upon discovery, her tightly wrapped shroud had weathered away and crumbled into dust.
Upon revealing her face, they found a young and stunningly beautiful girl with her eyes closed, her lips slightly curved as if she had just fallen asleep under some spell, exuding a mysterious and enigmatic smile.
According to legend, The Beauty Of Loulan was petite, standing at 1.585 meters, and had been resting peacefully under the desert for over 3,800 years.
Indeed, even the world-renowned Loulan female corpse, with its immense archaeological significance, is only 3,800 years old. If this newly discovered corpse has a history of over 5,000 years, it raises many questions about the history and development of ancient civilizations.
China's recorded history dates back to more than 3,000 years, starting from the late Shang Dynasty. However, it is widely believed that Chinese civilization has a much longer history, possibly spanning over 5,000 years.
While the lack of concrete historical evidence has led some foreigners to dispute this claim, the discovery of a corpse with a history of more than 5,000 years would undoubtedly be a significant contribution to the history of ancient China.
It could provide tangible evidence to support the longstanding belief in the long history of Chinese civilization and potentially alter our understanding of the origins and development of ancient Chinese society.
Ye Bo pointed out that the appraisers who evaluated the corpse's authenticity were none other than Old Song, Old Shen, and two archaeologists, all of whom hold great respect and expertise in their field.
Therefore, it seems highly improbable that they would make any baseless claims.
"Anyway, I don't believe it, I want to test it myself." Zhou Xixian said.
In a rush, they located Shen Hong and Old Song and requested their personal identification. The commotion drew the attention of Boss Wu, Old Xie, Alan, Anna, the amiable young man, and others, who came to witness the spectacle.
They were astonished to behold the flawless golden jade garment and the remarkably realistic body, which had a historical significance of over 5,000 years.
"My God, this can't be true," Alan exclaimed, feeling a mixture of excitement and unexplainable apprehension.
Anna mused, "Five thousand years? That predates the era of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors in Chinese mythology, doesn't it?" The Xia Dynasty and the period of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors were not universally recognized outside of China. If this body is proven to be from China over 5,000 years ago, it would be a direct challenge to the beliefs of foreign experts."
To be honest, if such a corpse were discovered elsewhere, even if rumors circulated that it was over 5,000 years old, few people would believe it, let alone if it was only claimed to be 3,000 years old.
However, this was Su Jing's museum – when has Su Jing ever exhibited fake artifacts? Having witnessed a variety of his rare treasures, no one dared to easily question the authenticity of this exhibit. What if it was true? What if Su Jing had actually acquired such an incredible corpse?
"Brother Shen, Brother Song, would you be willing to allow us to conduct an appraisal?" Zhou Xixian asked with an eager expression on his face. When it came to archaeological appraisal, they were much more proficient than Shen Hong and Old Song.
"Absolutely, Mr. Su welcomes experts to appraise the exhibit. However, as the museum is currently open, it may not be convenient. Let's conduct the appraisal after closing hours," Old Song replied with a chuckle.
He and Shen Hong both understood the excitement of everyone present. When they first heard about the corpse's historical significance of over 5,000 years, they were also so overwhelmed with excitement that it took them a long time to calm down.
Zhou Xixian and Ye Bo were both eager to conduct an immediate appraisal of the exhibit, but as it was a collection belonging to someone else's museum, they had to be reasonable and patient.
They didn't want to risk irritating the museum owners and being denied permission to appraise the exhibit. However, they also didn't want to waste any time, so they immediately contacted their colleagues at the institute to prepare for the appraisal.
"If this exhibit really does have a historical significance of over 5,000 years, it would be quite remarkable," Boss Wu remarked, with Old Xie nodding in agreement. While it may not be as sensational as the discovery of the ruins of Atlantis, it would still hold great significance for China.
"…" The stylishly dressed and well-mannered young men, as well as the others present, had fallen silent and refrained from discussing the potential monetary value of the exhibit.
Whether or not they were knowledgeable about its worth, they understood that the value of such a historical artifact could not be measured in terms of money alone.
