Chapter 14, Jokhang Temple
Although the book Fairy Sword is not signed, it is now also the first place on the public list.
didn't care about the update of the manuscript, so that Xianjian crushed the second place with 200,000 words in terms of word count, not to mention the gap in writing.
Sitting firmly in the first place on the public list, the effect will not be worse than those recommendations after signing the contract, and the number of collections is now considerable, a book that has not signed a contract has 20,000 collections when it is 300,000 words, and it is already possible to hang up the novels of the same period.
looked at the comment area, Ye Kai didn't find the message of the film and television company, so he closed the website and continued to code.
The book will only be posted on the website to two-thirds, and the rest Ye Kai chooses to keep it.
In the next two days, Ye Kai visited all the attractions around, but there was no reward for triggering the system, and it seemed that not all attractions would reward things.
So on the day when the inspiration bonus stopped, Ye Kai hitchhiked into Lhasa City.
Although Lhasa is not the end of the Sichuan-Tibet line, it is the end point of a self-driving tour or a bicycle ride on the Sichuan-Tibet line, and almost all tourists who come to Tibet will stop in Lhasa.
For Tibetans, Lhasa is a holy city, especially the Jokhang Temple, which Buddhists consider the center of the world.
The first place Ye Kai went to Lhasa was the Jokhang Temple.
Compared with Gongbu Jiangda, Lhasa is too commercialized, and many Tibetan-style things are actually for tourists to enjoy, which is beautiful, but they have lost their original simple and practical meaning.
Here you can see tourists from all over the world, twice as many tourists as locals, and the streets are full of young travelers with travel bags.
On the side of the road, you can see Tibetans from all over the country who come to worship, they are still kowtowing in three steps towards the goal, I don't know how long they have walked before, but today they should also go to the Jokhang Temple.
The architectural style of Jokhang Temple is different from that of inland monasteries, and it combines the characteristics of Chinese, Indian, and Nepalese monasteries to form a unique Tibetan monastic style.
On the right side of the monastery, there are many Tibetan believers kowtowing, some pilgrims and some Lhasa locals coming to make wishes.
Even some tourists mix in.
It feels like a person who doesn't know English at all is flipping through an original English novel, no matter how much you pretend to be, you can't deny the fact that you don't understand English.
Around them were countless tourists holding up their cameras and filming wildly.
Ye Kai did not photograph Tibetans, but looked for a long angle and photographed this group of tourists. Ye Kai felt that there was a dramatic conflict between tourists and these devout Tibetan believers, and the filming effect was better.
Tourists buy tickets to enter the Jokhang Temple from the right, and Tibetans line up from the left, both sides.
After entering the Jokhang Temple, he couldn't take pictures, and Ye Kai had to close the lid of the SLR to prove that he didn't carry any shooting equipment.
He had also been to some temples before, but they were far less solemn than the Jokhang Temple.
In terms of splendor, in fact, the interiors of all Tibetan temples are splendid, some are gilded Buddha statues, and some are even all-gold Buddha statues.
But the reason why Jokhang Temple is so sacred is not because of the large area of this temple.
It is because of the twelve-year-old statue of the Buddha enshrined in it, that is, according to the height of the Buddha at the age of twelve, a golden body of the Buddha is made, and it is said that it was consecrated by the Buddha himself.
In fact, this is also an object of Huaxia itself, which was brought to Tibet when Princess Wencheng entered Tibet.
Entering the Jokhang Temple, there are several big Buddha statues in front of you, and the wall on the right side of the main hall is the process of building the Jokhang Temple presided over by the Tibetan King Songtsen Gampo.
The Jokhang Temple's inner courtyard is small and surrounded by Buddhist halls and prayer halls dedicated to Buddha statues, and Tibetans enter the pilgrimage in turn, while tourists browse clockwise around the middle.
The Tibetans here are in very good order, worshipping one after another, from the elderly to the children who are learning to speak, and there are many young people, and there is really no one to talk or talk except chanting.
So even the tourists were infected, and there was not a single murmur in the entire scripture hall, only the sound of monks and Tibetans chanting.
[You visited the Jokhang Temple and received the baptism of Sanskrit sound, and your heart is more calm]

Feeling calmer?
After receiving the reward, Ye Kaihastily walked around and left the Jokhang Temple.
In the past, although the reward was not something that could be seen and touched, it could be felt. The strengthening of the body, the knowledge of the secret books of the three religions, and the knowledge of Tibetan areas.
But this inner peace is calmer, and Ye Kai doesn't feel it at all.
Talent still doesn't know what it is.
After leaving the temple, Ye Kai walked slowly on the square in front of the Jokhang Temple, where there were sketchers, snack sellers, and singing people.
There are also some who ask you to take pictures, but their photos are not free, and you will only be paid for after taking pictures. It's actually okay not to give money, but it will definitely scold you in a voice that you can hear.
"Oops. β
Ye Kai came back to his senses.
There was a man on the ground, and the easel was also on the ground, and the paint placed was right on the painting.
A painting that was almost finished was ruined.
Did I bump into her? shouldn it be me, although I was thinking about things, I had been avoiding pedestrians on the road, and a big brother suddenly said to Ye Kai at this time.
"How did you go, I bumped into her for you. β
βοΌοΌοΌβ
The girl shook her shoulders and lifted the easel up when she thought it was okay. "It's okay, big brother, it's just a painting and it doesn't matter. β
This girl was wearing sunglasses, and she had been wearing a hood to see her face clearly, and the eldest brother who bumped into someone didn't pursue it when he saw the victim, and glared at Ye Kai contemptuously before turning away.
βοΌοΌοΌβ
Be all abroad.
Ye Kai squatted down and helped her pick up the things.
"Thank you. β
Ye Kai returned: "No, you're fine." β
"My hand hurts a little, but it's not a big problem. It's a pity that this painting is gone, and I'm going back tomorrow, so I don't have time to paint another one. β
"What's this, young people have time, I'll give you one first, and then you can come back by yourself. β
I haven't used my calligraphy and painting skills yet, and now my hands are a little itchy.
The girl obviously didn't reflect it, and after a while she was surprised: "You're a painter?"
"It's not. β
Ye Kai straightened the shelf, picked up the paint box that was placed aside, and shook it, it was a little small.
So I took out the cup in my travel bag.
Go to the supermarket and buy another one later.
Zhang Zi watched Ye Kai prepare, and also stepped aside to enjoy Ye Kai's performance, and saw Ye Kai come out with a cup without water, she said, "I have water here, and I haven't drunk it yet." β
Ye Kai took it and said, "Just needed, thank you." β
Unexpectedly, Ye Kai poured mineral water and pigment into the water cup together, not to drink water, but to make a cup of black pigment.
What does he want to do?
Zhang Zi looked at it curiously.
Ye Kai arranged several pens in order of size, and the pigments to be used were prepared in advance.
It's time to start drawing.
