Do you know which of our national treasures are missing?
That is, the national treasure is the precious wealth of the country. Whether it is physical or intangible, it is a national treasure. Every country has its own national treasure, which is the symbol and pride of a country. The following are the missing national treasures of China. Now, where they are can only be roughly guessed.
Skull of Beijingers: 80 years ago, the world's first complete skull fossil of Beijingers came out, and the human ancestors who had been sleeping underground for 500,000 years were awakened. But just 12 years later, this evidence bearing the imprint of human life was mysteriously lost, and its whereabouts are still unknown! Where are the remains of our ancestors? In the 1920s and 1930s, archaeologists discovered a skull fossil in Gulongshan, Zhoukoudian, Beijing, which was called "Peking Man's Skull". It is also an extremely precious fossil, which has irreplaceable value for the study of human activities in the Paleolithic age. During World War II, in order to prevent the skulls of Beijingers from falling into Japanese hands, they were prepared to be transported to new york for safekeeping and brought back after the war. However, after the Pearl Harbor incident broke out, the Japanese captured American soldiers in Beijing and Tianjin, and the whereabouts of the skulls of Beijingers were unknown. 1972, during President Nixon's visit to China, he showed the China government the whereabouts of the skull fossils of "Beijingers" detained by the United States. The clue provided by Nixon is that the skeleton fossil of "Peking man skull" is most likely on the sunken ship "Apo Pill".
Treasure of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom: It is a pity that the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom failed, and it is also a pity that the huge jewels of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom are gone. When Beijing fell, the whole army was wiped out, and a large number of jewels emerged out of thin air. China and foreign countries spread flood wealth, gold and silver are like the sea, department stores are full, and more property is hidden underground. After Li Xiucheng was captured, Zeng Guofan coerced and repeatedly asked about the whereabouts of gold and silver, which is why Zhong Wang was later executed. I can't bend my strength, but I never reveal the whereabouts of my jewelry. Some people even drained the lake in the back garden of Tianwangfu and dug three feet, but found nothing. Such hoarded jewels are very appetizing to the world, and the pursuit of treasure hunting is endless.
Preface to Lanting Collection: The Preface to Lanting Collection, which is known as "the first running book in the ages", has long been lost. Together with Yan Zhenqing's My Nephew Ji Ming's Manuscript and Su Shi's Cold Food Post, it is called three posts of running script. It is the pinnacle of Wang Xizhi, a book sage. It has extremely high artistic value and has been lost for thousands of years, which makes people miss it! According to historical records, in the testamentary edict of Emperor Taizong of Tang Dynasty, it was explicitly required that Preface to Lanting be buried with him. In other words, this baby should be in Zhaoling. In the Five Dynasties, Wen Tao exterminated human beings, Zhaoling was thoroughly excavated, and the original works of Zhong You and Wang Xizhi were discovered and spread all over the world. "Preface to Lanting Collection" was not mentioned, which led to a headless case. Some people say that Preface to Lanting is still in Zhaoling, and it may be hidden in a more secret place. Wen Tao was in a hurry, but the original was not found. Some people say that Preface to Lanting is in Ganling, and Tang Gaozong and Wu Zetian love painting and calligraphy. What's more, there has long been a folk saying that "Preface to Lanting Collection" and "Ganling" were buried together. If the tomb is not stolen, everything will only become a fog. I believe that one day Ganling will be opened and the truth will come out.
Yongle Grand Ceremony: In order to reduce the world's evaluation of his "disobedience" and reflect the emperor's mighty grace, Zhu Di of the Ming Dynasty seized the throne of his nephew; A large number of intellectuals were ordered to bow their heads and arrange ceremonies. Yongle Dadian is a wonderful book through the ages! It is said that 3,000 people participated in the compilation, which lasted for three years and the total number of volumes reached 22,000. Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty was very satisfied. He wrote a preface and named it after himself. Unfortunately, since its publication, Yongle Dadian has been called the largest encyclopedia at all times and in all countries.
