Old Chen Chen naturally tempted him, "Buddhism, Japan also believes in Buddhism, and I am also very interested in Buddhist culture. I don't know where this Buddha is now?"

Old Chen looked at Li Zhongfu up and down, and saw that this man couldn't hide a big Buddha. Don't end up with a pendant, it's boring.

Li Zhongfu started talking at this time, and his whole person seemed a little slick, and his eyes revealed a sly look. He looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to it, so he took it out from the place where the clothes were attached to the flesh. Come with a cloth bag.

Lao Chen leaned back to avoid the sweat, staring at the thin cloth bag, and saw Lao Chen opening the cloth bag layer by layer, only to see that it was just a tattered photo.

When Gu Nanshan saw it, his complexion changed. The old guy was both mysterious and eating and drinking. A bowl of soup made you drink two-thirds of it all by yourself. Finally, I will show you a picture of the uncle? Seeing that he was about to change his face, Old Chen pulled him without showing a trace, and temporarily stabilized.

He put on a smiling face again, and wanted to take this photo to look closely, but Li Zhongfu stretched out his hand and held it down, and said a little bit.

Wang Laoqi said in an angry translation, "He said this broken photo can only be seen, not touched!" After that, he rolled his eyes and said, "Who is so rare."

Old Chen glared at him, "Don't give me a brawl." Then he stood up and looked down at the picture on the desktop, and he became interested in seeing it.

This is a black and white photo. Inside is a gilt Buddha statue. Since there is no reference, the exact size of the Buddha statue is not known.

And looking at the craftsmanship and technique, it is not a local thing in Vietnam, nor is it a cultural relic of the Central Plains, but should come from Tibet. It is a Nepalese gilt bronze statue of the Vajra Buddha.

Old Chen saw that this thing was of great value at a glance, but this was not what attracted him the most. After looking at some details, he knew that this trip was really coming. If this image is really obtained, Even the biggest gain of this trip.

At first glance, Old Chen thought it was a gilt bronze Vajrayogini with an angry image and wearing a skull crown, but after a closer look, Old Chen felt that it was not a Yogi at all.

The Yogi image should be standing on the lotus sun chakra with one foot in a standing position, but this statue has no feet and only a tail, hooked on the lotus sun chakra.

This is actually the image of a great witch with a human head snake body. In the Central Plains civilization, there are many legends about the human head snake body, such as Fuxi, Nuwa, and Chang'e. To be precise, these three cannot be used in general terms. To summarize the legendary images of Chinese civilization, when these images first appeared, they belonged to each region with its own culture.

In addition, in the West, there are also theories of mermaids. It can be seen that in the initial origin of various civilizations, most of them have overlapped with the image of human head and snake body. In modern society, there is no human head and snake body.

And this Tibetan-Nepalese-style gilded bronze statue of a snake with a human head and a snake. The point that aroused Lao Chen's interest is that this statue has long overlapped with Gu Nanshan and the others.

The more Chen looked at his eyes, the more interested he became. In addition, this is a special product of Tibetan culture. Not to mention economic value, cultural value alone is immeasurable. How can such a national treasure live overseas.

Old Chen patted the table, motioned Gu Nanshan to look forward, and asked Li Zhongfu, "This Bodhisattva looks strange. You have to look at the real thing before you can make a conclusion." (End of this chapter)
