Tomb Raider: I, at the beginning, took Fatty Lao Hu as my younger brother

In the south-central part of Tibet, between the Himalayas and Nianqing Tanggula, there are thousands of lakes of various sizes. Those with a certain size are regarded as holy lakes by Tibetans!

If there are snow-capped mountains beside the lake, it will be even more sacred. The names of these lakes all contain the word "Cuo". The more famous ones include Anglarencuo, Dangreyongcuo, Namucuo, Zhari Namucuo, etc.!

There are too many to list, and each one has endless mysterious legends. The Fairy Lake, where Lao Hu’s old friend Tiebang Lama fulfilled his vow, is one of these many lakes!

Everyone got off the bus in Gase and hired some herdsmen's horses to ride!

This is not a mountainous area, but the altitude is nearly 4,500 meters.

Led by the herdsmen, they kept walking southward and came to the diversion point of the Bo Zangbu River.

Zangbu means river!

This is the first time in their lives that anyone has gone deep into the heart of Western Zang!

The sunlight on the plateau makes people dizzy.

The sky is so blue that it seems to be dripping with water.

The guide and horse owner we hired was a young Tibetan named Wangdui!

Wangdui led everyone to a high ground.

Pointing to the two jade-like lakes below, he introduced: "The big one on the left is Yongmazhuo Zhacuo, the Dragon Palace Lake, and the smaller one on the right is Ramlacuo, the Fairy Lake hanging in the sky!"

At this time, the sky is clear, the lake is blue, the clear waves reflect the snow-capped peaks and white clouds, and the distant mountains around the lake are faintly visible!

Zhou Xun exclaimed: "What a picturesque scene!"

Shirley Yang said: "It is recorded in the Great Tang Records on the Western Regions that the Tang monk Xuanzang once came here. Inspired by the beauty of this world, he called the two closely adjacent lakes the Twin Walls of the Jade Pool in the Western Heaven!"

The fat man laughed and said, "Don't mention it, it really looks like the beautiful scenery of the Yaochi Lake! I'm afraid the Yaochi Lake in the sky is only like this!"

Zhang Yingchen asked, "Why, have you seen the Yaochi in the sky?"

The fat man was speechless for a moment.

Then he rolled his eyes and said happily, "That's right, don't you know that we have been to the Heavenly Palace before?"

Zhang Yingchen was indeed powerless to refute after hearing this.

After all, I'm not bragging about having been to the Heavenly Palace.

Even if it is not the real heaven, it is still a heaven on earth!

Uncle Ming asked in confusion: "Brother Wang, have you ever been to the Heavenly Palace?"

The fat man said proudly: "That's right, not only I have been there, but also Mr. Zhou, Lao Hu, and Chief of Staff Yang have all been there!"

Uncle Ming: ...

Lao Hu explained: "Don't take it seriously. It is indeed a heavenly palace, but it is not a palace in the sky. It is just a Feng Shui secret place."

Uncle Ming: ...

Look at how they talk!

How infuriating!

It’s just a Feng Shui secret place.

Even if he doesn't understand Feng Shui, he knows that the Feng Shui Secret Realm is synonymous with mystery and excellent Feng Shui!

Han Shu Na asked curiously, "Which one is better, the one you went to in the Heavenly Palace or the one here?"

Zhou Xun said: "There is no comparison. The Heavenly Palace in the Feng Shui Secret Realm gives people a shocking and magnificent feeling. This place gives people a feeling of picturesque Feng Shui, with blue sky and green earth!"

The fat man nodded and said, "Yes, there is no comparison!"

..... ....... 0

Han Shu Na couldn't help but feel envious when she heard this!

As expected of Mr. Zhou and his companions, they are so knowledgeable and experienced!

"Come on, let's go down!"

Uncle Ming said.

Wang Dui said, "We can't ride horses anymore. There is a rule here that livestock raised by humans cannot enter the holy land!"

Zhou Xun said: "It's okay, let's go!"

Everyone left the horses behind. These horses had been trained by the herdsmen, so there was no problem leaving them here to graze.

Wangdui found a flat place and everyone walked down.

Wangdui led the way and pointed to the Dragon Palace Lake and said, "There is a legend about this Yongmazhuo Zhacuo. It is said that at the bottom of the lake there is the palace of the Guangcai Dragon King, which is filled with many rare treasures!"

"If a person with a predestined relationship walks around the lake and picks up a small fish, a stone, or a feather from a water bird in the lake, he or she will be rewarded by the Dragon King of Wealth and will have a continuous source of wealth throughout his or her life!"

“But the pilgrims who come to circumambulate the lake prefer to circumambulate the Fairy Lake!”

The fat man asked curiously, "Why?"

Old Hu glanced at the fat man and said, "Don't interrupt them!"

The fat man shrank his head and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"

Zhang Yingchen didn't expect that this fat man was so afraid of Lao Hu.

It wasn't like this when I was in the palace.

Zhang Yingchen seemed to have discovered a new world!

Chapter 234: Iron Rod Lama Ake

Wangdui smiled at the fat man and continued, "It is said that the clear water in the Fairy Lake is the tears of the fairies."

"It not only removes the worldly filth and lesions on people's bodies, but also purifies the greed, anger, laziness and jealousy in their hearts, making people's hearts pure."

“The snow-capped mountains across the two lakes symbolize the immensity of the Dharma!”

Shirley Yang said: "The fat guy should be allowed to purify his soul!"

Old Hu also nodded and said, "That's right!"

The fat man retorted: "Why?"

Unfortunately, no one paid attention to him!

Why don't you have any idea?

Don’t mention it, the fat guy might really have no idea!

Maybe the fat guy thinks he is a perfect person in his heart!

Zhou Xun smiled and said, "Okay, then let's go purify our souls, Mr. Lei, what do you think?"

Uncle Ming just doesn't believe this.

Wu Suoyi said: "It's all right, I'll listen to you, Master Zhou!"

Zhou Xun nodded and said, "30 OK, go purify your soul!"

Everyone walked towards Fairy Lake!

Come to the Fairy Lake below.

Everyone walked around the Fairy Lake and finally saw Lao Hu's friend Iron Rod Lama.

Because they were not here on pilgrimage, they did not bow their heads like the people around them.

Walking along the lake.

From time to time, people can see the remains of pilgrims.

They seemed to have merged into one with the holy land!

A hunched figure appeared in our sight in the distance.

His identity can be seen from the conspicuous black protective iron rod on his back.

But his behavior is very strange!

It was clearly not the kind of way around the lake that we had seen.

It seems like some ancient and mysterious ritual is being performed!

Lao Hu asked Wang Dui, "Why is that person's way of circumnavigating the lake so special and different from others? Is there any explanation behind it?"

Wangdui also shook his head in confusion and said, "I don't know either. This is the first time I've seen this action. I don't know what it means!"

Even the Tibetan Wangdui had never seen this move.

Through the explanations given by the Tibetan Wangdui along the way, everyone also learned a lot about the local rituals.

Circling the mountain or around the lake.

It is a unique way of worship for those living in this special region of the Roof of the World.

It is a form of nature worship that believes that all things have spirits, and is a manifestation of the original Tibetan religion.

Conventional actions can be layered in two ways.

The first, and most common, is to walk, as they just did.

There is another more pious posture, in which the men put on wooden boards with both hands, raise them above their heads, then bring them to their chests, throw themselves forward with their foreheads touching the ground, and prostrate themselves on the ground.

Use your body to measure the circumference of the sacred mountain and holy lake bit by bit. Every time you go around it, your sins will be reduced and merits will be accumulated. If you die on the way around the lake, it will be a blessing!

The actions of the Iron Rod Lama do not seem to be circling the lake, but rather like the shaman dance from the Northeast!

Lao Hu guessed, "When I was in Inner Mongolia, I saw the rituals of witches and shamans. He should be performing a ritual to exorcise evil spirits!"

Shirley Yang asked in confusion: "This is a holy mountain, how could there be evil spirits here?"

Zhou Xun said: "Let's go and ask and you will know."

As they spoke, everyone walked towards the Iron Rod Lama.

far away.

The Iron Rod Lama also saw the people walking towards him.

Especially when he saw Hubayi, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, among the crowd, he immediately stopped what he was doing and walked towards the crowd.

Old Hu looked at the Iron Rod Lama who was approaching. After more than ten years of separation, the Lama seemed to have not changed, except that his clothes became more tattered.

Long time no see.

As soon as they met, they began to reminisce about the past.

Lao Hu even talked about the current situation of his two former comrades.

Everyone listening was confused.

The lama sighed and said, "For those who have breached the demon's tomb to be able to survive is already a blessing from the Buddha. I hope that in my lifetime, I can accumulate more merits by the lake and pray for them!"

Lao Hu asked, "How are you guys doing?"

The lama said, "I have never left Lhamo Lacuo. I chant sutras and walk around the lake every day. I live a good life!"

The fat man asked in confusion, "You chant sutras and walk around the lake every day, so what do you eat and drink?"

Everyone was very curious about the comparison.

If you don’t work, how can you have any source of income?

The lama said truthfully: "All our food and clothing are donated by the believers who come to the lake to worship. Other pilgrims who come here to worship also accept donations on the way. Donating to the saints is also a kind of accumulation of merit!"

Lao Hu then introduced them to the lama: "These are all my friends!"

"Hello there!"

Everyone greeted the Lama.

Lao Hu then asked: "What were you doing just now?"

"I asked Medicine King Bodhisattva for divination. There are two poachers from the mainland hunting nearby. But they are novices. They have been waiting for five days but have not seen any animals."

570 "Finally they saw a small animal they had never seen before, and they killed it and ate it. After eating it, they started rolling on the ground with stomach pain. When the Tibetans found them, they were already unconscious and foaming at the mouth!"

"There are no hospitals or temples here, but I have been a Medicine Lama and often treat patients by the lake, so the Tibetans came to me and hoped that I could treat them!"

"I asked the Tibetans to bring the people here. During this time, I recited the Kangyur by the lake and prayed to Medicine King Bodhisattva for help!"
