World Tibet Bureau

Chapter 808
Dai Lin lowered her head and said nothing, holding the dog's tail grass tightly with her hands.

I asked, "Did you hear what Cheng Fang said just now?"

Dai Lin nodded: "I heard some."

I asked again: "Are you worried about Daxia?"

When Dai Lin heard this, tears flowed down again. It was obvious that she wanted to hold back, but she couldn't.

I don't know what to say.

Xia Xi was exposed and controlled by Hai Ye this time, and she was bound to be in bad luck.

Dai Lin is just a college student. She has never experienced anything like this before, and she must be worried and scared.

at this time.

Xiaozhu also woke up. She came over, sat down and patted Dai Lin's shoulder gently.

This shot.

Dai Lin couldn't bear it anymore, turned around, hugged Xiaozhu, and started crying.

Xiaozhu hugged her tightly. Perhaps she was infected by Dai Lin's emotions, and she began to cry with red eyes.

When a woman cries, I can’t get a word in.

I turned around and kicked Sanheizi awake, who was still snoring, and asked him to get up and chat, otherwise he would be too bored.

After a while.

The two of them controlled their emotions and came over sheepishly.

I comforted Dai Lin and said, "Da Xia is extremely intelligent and a rare genius in the world. He definitely has a backup plan for himself."

"Hai Ye will never do anything to him if he doesn't get what he wants. Just put your heart in your stomach first."

"After we get out, Brother Su promises you that no matter how dangerous it is, I will definitely find a way to rescue Xia Xi!"

Dai Lin heard my promise, her gloomy look dissipated slightly, and she nodded solemnly to me.

Sanheizi said: "Let's talk about something else! Beauty Dai, how do you know which stone is the mechanism?"

As soon as this word comes out.

Xiaozhu and I both cheered up.

Because this thing is indeed a mystery.

The key is that there are dozens of honeycomb holes on the mountain. We just randomly selected one at that time. How could there be a mechanism in this hole by chance?
Dai Lin replied: "The Ice Pagoda has ancient Sanskrit writing on it, which records an incredible thing."

then.

Dai Lin began to explain to us.

Since some of the ancient Sanskrit characters on the Ice Pagoda are vague, Dai Lin’s translation is not very accurate. The general meaning is as follows.

During the Han Dynasty, a fire demon wreaked havoc in the Shennongjia area, causing numerous casualties among the people.A man named Supreme Taoist, together with 49 warlocks from the Middle Earth and Western Regions, set up a trap to capture the fire demon.In the end, they divided the fire demon into the Guanghan Palace area and annihilated it, and the Supreme Taoist also died. The piece of red sandstone like magma and the warm river water were actually the remains of the fire demon.

Although the fire demon was annihilated, the remains of its remains were still highly poisonous.

To this end, 49 sorcerers built a pagoda by the river with the corpse of the Supreme Taoist. They dug 49 shadow wall caves in the mountain not far away, and each person sat at the entrance of a cave (these are the honeycomb caves). They used the ice formation to transform the fire demon's poison. The ice formation was so powerful that it created a unique climate environment in Guanghan Palace that was different from other places. The world also called them the "49 Hanshan laymen".

As for the gaps inside the mountain, the 49 warlocks asked their disciples outside the mountain to specially dig them out, mainly to provide food and drink for these Hanshan laymen who cast spells, because if they were brought in from other places, they would destroy the mountain. The ice array in the cold palace.

After several years, the evil poison was transformed, and all 49 Hanshan laymen died at the entrance of the Dharma Cave.

After their deaths, the disciples engraved this on the body of the pagoda to commemorate the Supreme Taoist and the 49 Hanshan laymen, and also wrote down the instructions for leaving the Dharma Cave.

We were stunned.

Sanheizi scratched his head: "Let's put aside the pagoda first. These caves are obviously natural, and the gaps are also natural. There are no bones at the entrance of the cave. How could it be dug by some layman? The ancients said I like to use things like gods and ghosts to deceive people!"

Hearing this, Dai Lin asked him, "If it's a lie, why is the method of leaving the Dharma Cave recorded on the pagoda true?"

Three Heizi: "..."

Xiaozhu challenged me and asked, "Is this the same story you translated for Cheng Fang?"

Dai Lin shook her head: "No, I know they are all bad people, so I translated a Buddhist scripture passed down from my hometown for them."

There is no way to verify whether the story Dai Lin told is true or false.

There definitely is myth processing.

My inner thoughts are actually the same as Sanheizi's, I don't believe this story at all.but.

Whether we believe it or not.

Just Dai Linxin!

If this Tibetan girl who knew ancient Sanskrit hadn't believed in the story recorded on the pagoda, she wouldn't have been able to follow the diagram and find the agency to take us away. We might have become the dogs around Haiye now!
Really Amitabha!
But I still had a major doubt in my mind, so I asked Dai Lin: "So, the Buddha statue on the top of the Ice Pagoda is the supreme layman. Is there any record in the ancient Sanskrit on the pagoda whether he is a Buddha or a Taoist?" ?”

Dai Lin heard this and replied: "There is no record on the body of the pagoda as to whether the supreme layman is a Buddha or a Taoist. It only says that he was a master of magic in the Spring and Autumn Period. His birth year is unknown and he lived into the Han Dynasty. But I firmly believe that the supreme layman must be It’s Buddha!”

Lived from the Spring and Autumn Period to the Han Dynasty?

I'm afraid this supreme layman is not a monster!
I asked, "Why do you believe he is Buddha?"

Dai Lin replied with a very firm expression: "Because Buddhism is boundless!"

I:"……"

Forget it.

She has her own beliefs.

Not to mention useless.

I am a man of the Spring and Autumn Period.

The supreme layman is also a person of the Spring and Autumn Period.

This era of Spring and Autumn is really too mysterious.

Sister Jiuer's evaluation of the Spring and Autumn Period is that this was the peak period when Chinese mysticism flourished, because there were not many other things during this period, but weird warlocks were all over the world.

She believes that mysticism began in the ancient Yan and Huang Dynasties, and the Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties respectively laid the foundation for "Lianshan Yi", "Gui Zang Yi", and "Zhou Yi". After those guys in the Spring and Autumn Period learned the Three Yis, their mystical skills exploded and began to spread widely. Gathering guests and friends, establishing territories everywhere, and once they didn't like it, they began to call for wind, rain, thunder and lightning to fight against each other. As a result, more than 140 vassal states, large and small, rarely appeared in Chinese history.

Famous occult figures such as Guiguzi, Laozi, Zhuangzi, Fan Li, Lu Ban, Zou Yan...

Shining like a galaxy!

This is also the reason why the unique culture of gentlemen and scholars was formed during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

The so-called cultivator is to cultivate first-class warlocks with superior magic skills and sword skills to facilitate fighting.

Later Qin unified the world.

After the First Emperor established a unified country, the top priority before him was to eliminate these mysterious magicians with great abilities. Otherwise, if these guys can call the shots, the country will probably fall into chaos like the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

As a result, there was the famous burning of books and entrapment of Confucians.

Sister Jiuer told me that "burning books to trap scholars" was only a later term. The main targets were not scholars, but capable magicians. The correct name at that time should be "burning books to trap scholars."

"Historical Records: Biographies of Scholars" clearly records: "By the end of the Qin Dynasty, poems and books were burned and magicians were trapped, and the six arts were lacking from then on."

As a result of this incident, Chinese occultism has been in a state of decline to this day.

The few sorcerers who escaped the disaster also hid in the mountains and "have been secretive since then."

Of course, after the fall of Qin, some disciples of reclusive sorcerers also briefly came out to demonstrate their superior skills, such as Zhang Liang, Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong, Guo Jia, etc.By the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the four major hermit metaphysics schools were well known: Zhengshi metaphysics, Zhulin metaphysics, Eastern Jin metaphysics, and Western Jin metaphysics.

But compared with everyone in the Spring and Autumn Period, these people are all younger brothers.

but.

When Sister Jiuer told me these things, she had a playful smile on her face.

I thought she was talking nonsense at the time, but she told me the classics, leaving me unable to refute.

Moreover, regardless of whether she was joking or serious, I didn't dare to refute it.

The matter of the Ice Pagoda can no longer be explored as it sank to the bottom of the Shennongjia river.

The mystery of the beginning of Buddha and Taoism.

It seems that we have to wait for future generations to answer.

Dai Lin glanced at me and said, "Brother Su, come here."

I asked: "What's wrong?"

Dai Lin said: "When I left the Magic City, Daxia told me to bring you a message."
