Chapter 108 Bon Runes
Returning to the hall, Sang Jieba turned around the spiritual tower twice and also stared at the rune above. He couldn't help frowning and didn't say anything for a long time.
Tao Yuner hurriedly asked, "Master, do you know this rune?"
Sang nodded and said, "I know this rune. I don't know if you have heard of Bon?" Seeing everyone shaking their heads, he then explained, "In fact, in Tibet, in addition to Buddhism, there is also a local sect, that is, Bon. It is also known as the original religion and the Bo religion. Because the heads of the believers are wrapped in black towels, it is also commonly known as the black religion.
Before Buddhism was introduced to Tibet, witchcraft was popular in Tibet. The objects of worship include heaven, earth, earth, sun and moon, thunder, lightning, hail, mountain stone, grass and beasts and other natural objects, as well as gods and ghosts in nature. During the spread of Buddhism, there have been strong conflicts with Bon religion. Until now, there are still various conflicts between the two in some places.
Bon does not have independent doctrines, classics, temples and systematic theories. Its concepts and contents are expressed by Bon wizards with divination, prayer, spells, illusions and various special rituals.
And this rune is a spell in Bon: Ray. Look, there are a total of four runes on this spiritual tower, that is to say, these are four spells, which are the four spells of wind, rain, thunder and lightning.
Wind, rain, thunder and lightning? These people suddenly thought of the four gates of wind, rain, thunder and lightning in the eight gates of the world. They smiled and felt that it was a coincidence. Sang didn't know what to do. What's so ridiculous to ask? Tao Yuner hurriedly said the relevant allusions, and then she was relieved.
Zhang Ping secretly compared the runes on Ouyang's seal, and suddenly found that the runes on it were also one of the four spells: electricity. I couldn't help wondering, is there another two seals? But what's wrong with the brush and Yantai?
At this time, Tao Yuner asked why this spell appeared on the spiritual tower of the fifth DL lama? Sang Jieba shook his head and said, "The body of this fifth dl lama was buried in accordance with the ancient Bon funeral customs and the Buddhist tower burial ritual. Therefore, it is not surprising that there is a Bon spell on it. But what does it mean? I don't know.
San stumbling still promised them to read the classics after going back, and will inform them in time when there is a result. However, I know what these two runes mean, and it is actually a spell that belongs to the Bon religion, which has made everyone very happy.
Farewell to Sang's stag, everyone returned to the hotel. At this time, Ouyangqing and others have come back and are discussing something. Seeing that they also came back, they stopped the discussion
When I heard Zhang Ping say that the rune of the seal had been successfully deciphered, I was more excited. What's more, he took out the seal brush and Yantai to play. When it comes to this thing, if there is nothing wrong with what Sang said, it is very likely that there will be a total of 4 sets, which are wind, rain, thunder and lightning. Now we know that two sets of things have appeared, one of which is complete here. In addition, the second set only lacks an inkstone, and the brush seal is kept on Tao Yuner's side. Others didn't know that there was another inkstone held by Zhang Ping at this time. Obviously, he didn't want to reveal his cards so quickly.
Speaking of the Sanjie Renba they were looking for, Ouyang was very angry.
Bajiao Street is located in the center of the ancient city of Lhasa, which is the most complete street in Lhasa. It is a gathering place for Lhasa's religion, economy, culture, national handicrafts and even Tibetan customs. It is also a must-see place for travelers to Lhasa.
"Bajiao Street" is round, like a huge clock, and the magnificent Jokhang Temple is the clock shaft. Octagonal Street is not named after the shape of the street, but a transliteration of the Tibetan word "Pakou", which means the street around the Jokhang Temple (built in the middle of the seventh century).
According to Tibetan Buddhists, a circle around the Jokhang Temple is called "turning the scriptures" to show the worship of Sakyamuni Buddha in Dazhao Temple. Bajiao Street is also the most important route for Tibetan Buddhist believers to turn around. Every day, people who wait for three steps come here. They went to the Jokhang Temple to worship the Buddha and cast long and short shadows on the smooth and shiny stone path.
Similarly, Bajiao Street is also a famous shopping street. There are not only a variety of Tibetan trinkets on the thousands of shop stalls, but also everything from magic weapons, scriptures to practical Tibetan knives, saddles, etc., and the Tibetans wearing ethnic costumes are endless, which is the purest place with the characteristics of ethnic minorities in the country.
Sanjay Renba opened a jewelry store here. When Ouyang Qingwen and found a place, Sanjie Renba was sitting on a lounge chair outside the store, drinking ghee tea and basking in the sun leisurely.
Seeing the man sitting in front of the door, his fat figure was like a groundhog, and his skin was not as purple and black as that of the Tibetans nearby. Ouyang subconsciously thought that this must not be Sanjie Renba, so he went up and asked. As a result, he was fooled by the man in front of the door that Sanjie Renba went out, and it was estimated that he would not come back until the evening.
Ouyang thought it was true, so he wandered around Bajiao Street with others.
Bajiao Street is indeed extremely lively. With a crowd of people, it is difficult to bargain with peace of mind when shopping. After a while, Liu Dahai mysteriously approached Ouyangqing and handed over a freshly selected sachet inlaid with natural agate. It's very popular with Ouyang. Although the stone quality of agate is not as good as gemstones, the inlaying craftsmanship is special, and it is also pearly and brilliant. And it can be equipped with your own favorite spices or perfume-soaked silk, which is usually brought around, unique, and emits silky fragrance at any time, so that you can always keep the fragrance.
Gong Zisheng also wants to buy something for his favorite person. Unfortunately, he looks left and right to see how it is suitable. He can't send any cow skulls or meridians. He may not like it when giving Tibetan robes to girls. It's really difficult. Lao Gu likes knives, and he naturally sells hidden knives in the stalls. However, this hidden knife is also under control now. You must secretly ask the stall owner. The stall owner feels that he is indeed willing to buy it before pulling out a box of hidden knives from the shelf for you to choose from.
Lao Gu pulled out a hidden knife, which was simple in shape and evil. In the afternoon sun in Lhasa, it shone with a piercing light. Lao Gu picked it up, and finally took a Tibetan knife and put it on the car.
It should be said that their harvest on Bajiao Street today is not small. They not only bought bags of Tibetan specialties, but also saw eye-filled ethnic costumes and experienced countless unique folk customs. Bajiao Street, the oldest street in Lhasa, in addition to thousands of shops, there are countless doors and windows like beehives. A Tibetan folk song sings: "On Bajiao Street in Lhasa, there are more windows than doors, and the girls in the windows have softer bones than meat."
Ha ha, unfortunately, the joy is very sad. When they turned around twice and then returned to the fat man, they found that the fat man just now was no longer in place, and the door of the store was locked. Knowing that it was wrong, I didn't know until I asked the people in the store next to me that these big living people were stunned by a fat man who looked like a groundhog. They really wanted to cry without tears.
Several angry people were not interested in returning to the hotel at this time. Looking at Ouyang's angry appearance, Lao Gu persuaded him, "I can run on the first day of junior high school, but I can't run on the fifteenth day of junior high school. I'm afraid that he will fly to the sky these days. Well, Ouyang, I'll take you to a romantic place and experience the love story of Bajiao Street!"
Three hundred years ago, on the night of a month, a mysterious figure came to a Tibetan pub located on the eighth corridor street of the ancient city of Lhasa. Right here, he coincidentally met a moon-like woman, whose beautiful face and expression were deeply branded in the heart and dream of the mysterious figure. Since then, he has often visited this pub, looking forward to the reunion with the moon girl. Unfortunately, the moon girl has never appeared again...
"At the high peak of the mountain in the east, whenever the bright moon rises, Maggie Ami's intoxicating smile will float in my heart"
This poem that almost everyone can recite in Tibet is the feelings he expressed in memory of the moon girl. This mysterious figure is Cangyang Gyatso, the sixth lama of Tibet.
The mysterious Cangyang Gyatso is a strange monk in Tibet and a poet. He has left many poems with burning life** and strong anti-feudal colors. And it was the dreamy moon woman Maggie Ami who flirted with his poetic soul...
In the "Maji Ami" restaurant in the center of Bajiao Street, Ouyang Qing lay on the table, listening to Lao Gu telling the sad and beautiful love story. Listening to the hungry poems left by Cangyang Jiacuo, his heart was intoxicated. My mind also came to my mind and I secretly made a comparison. Liu Dahai was still a prince, which was really a dilemma.
Everyone has communicated with each other's gains and was about to go out for a stroll when there was a knock on the door outside the door. Tao Yuner quickly ran to open the door, screamed, and rushed into the arms of a middle-aged man outside.
Everyone turned their eyes away, and Gong Zisheng also ran out, overjoyed: Uncle Tao, why are you here?
It turned out that it was Tao Yuner's father, the famous collector Tao Huacheng. When he came in from the outside, everyone noticed that there was a fat man behind him, who was Sanjie Renba.
After sitting down, everyone knew that it turned out that Tao Huacheng happened to be talking about a business in Lhasa these days. Aunt Mo said: My baby daughter is going to arrive in Lhasa these days, which delayed for two days. Unexpectedly, I received a phone call in the afternoon, which was Sanjie Renba's number. On the phone, he said that he didn't know who was being targeted and needed to avoid the limelight.
Who is Tao Huacheng? As soon as the fat man described it, he knew that it was Ouyangqing. Needless to say, his baby daughter naturally followed. So he took Sangjie Renba to find Tao Yun'er and acted as an uninvited guest.
Seeing his arrival, Tao Yuner was no longer serious, and she regained the appearance of a child and snuggled in her father's arms. Gong Zisheng simply told what happened along the way. Tao Huacheng listened carefully and nodded, indicating that they had done a good job.
After the prince Sheng finished speaking, looking at everyone staring at him, Tao Huacheng smiled at the corners of his mouth and said to everyone, "Ha ha, I guess everyone wants to know what happened ten years ago? Next, I will briefly recall the situation at that time. Sanjay Renba, you are also the person concerned. Come and listen to it. If I have any omissions, please help me add it.
Sang Jie Renba nodded and said yes, and his expression was very respectful. Tao Huacheng took a sip of water, his eyes fluttered, and slowly talked about a past ten years ago.
