When the phone was handed back, Tsering Gesang also opened the conversation.

"Okay, I've just finished talking about the watchhouse, let me introduce these things. You should have seen a lot of these flags along the way, and in Tibetan areas you will often see a small flag of red, yellow, green, blue and white cloth, which is another characteristic of our local area, and the totems on the colored flags are also very particular. ”

Tsering Gesang said as he casually fiddled with the strings of colored flags hanging on the wall.

"Wow....... For example, in the row in front of you, there is a pattern of horses carrying the Three Jewels, and the scriptures on it are Dharani mantras, Guanyin six-character mantras, and sometimes you will encounter patterns printed with Buddhist scriptures, proverbs, and various symbols and Buddha statues, but most of the cases will appear in the temple, hanging with prayer flags. If you encounter it in the future, I will tell you more about it, but now I will give you a brief introduction, including the price of the relevant prayer souvenirs....... For example, the small wooden branch you are holding. ”

"Blessing souvenirs, that's it?" He Manzhou raised his eyebrows, looked at the cypress branch he was fiddling with in surprise, and immediately said bluntly, "Just such a small wooden branch is still being sold, are you robbing money?"

It's really no wonder that He Manzhou is so emotional, after all, Tsering Gesang is talking about the most ordinary cypress tree, or the kind of species that will be planted next to the streets of any northern city. Although this clear green is very conspicuous in the bleak winter day, the sunlight that reflects it seems to reveal endless vitality, and it deserves the name of evergreen pine and cypress.

But no matter how evergreen the pines and cypresses are, they won't be asking for a sky-high price, right?

"This is our sacrificial item here, which is used exclusively to pray for blessings and keep peace, why don't we sell it?"

As if seeing He Manzhou's questioning, the corners of Tsering Gesang's lips hooked, and he unhurriedly popularized science.

"Of course, the pine branches and cypress branches sold are all chanted and prayed for blessings by the masters, which are sacrifices ordered by the gods, which are different from those planted on the roadside. The mulberry smoke lit with these holy relics has a fragrance that not only makes mortals feel comfortable, but also makes the mountain gods happy to smell it, and if they want the gods to bless themselves, of course, they must spend some money. You see, my holy relics have been brought back for a lot of money, and they are also for the sake of peace. ”

He Manzhou's heart was not turbulent, just watching him talk nonsense.

And Tsering Gesang was generous and generous, and continued to tell He Manzhou about these traditions.

"In our Tibetan area, almost every household has a mulberry furnace, and the first thing the big guy does on the first day of the Tibetan New Year is to simmer mulberry and sacrifice to the gods. In ancient times, the rituals were stricter, and even now, we usually add pine branches, cypress branches, and other sacred objects that have been blessed by the monks on the simmering mulberry pile, and bow down to ask for the blessings of the gods. ”

"I know, this is the religion of your Tibetans. ”

Tsering Gesang had just started to talk, and He Manzhou opened his mouth slowly.

She doesn't have any intention of showing off how well-informed she is, but she is too lazy to listen to these boring and empty popular science, the content of which is half true and false is secondary, and bluffing others to spend money is the core. In particular, the souvenir that Tsering Gesang just said, if there is still a little bit of nonsense in the front, it is obvious that the conversation has changed and started to sell, to explain the so-called local characteristics and religious inheritance, and to gild those objects that have no substantive role with a veil of mystery, and slaughter tourists fiercely.

After all, anything that has to do with the occult is inherently fraught with too many variables and psychological factors.

When it comes to praying for blessings or making wishes, there is no qualitative or guarantee, these things are too subjective, and there is a lot of sincerity and spirituality.

If the wish made can really come true, and the things to pray for really come true in the end, this may be the case with people's fortune, or maybe it is a positive psychological suggestion that brings good results, or even maybe the original hesitant things have taken a turn, so they will go in a good direction with efforts in many aspects. No one is sure if it is the so-called holy relics or amulets that have played a role, not to mention that when the crisis is really turned into a disaster, it is too late for the big guys to steal the fun, who will be the reason for it.

As for the wish not being fulfilled, there must be another explanation.

For example, if you don't see the effect in a short period of time, you need to be more dedicated to worship, or you can explain it by the fact that each person's good fortune is different, so the effect is different. It's really someone who feels cheated, and the merchant can still say that this is a book of life, and the holy relics can only bring blessings to everyone's good fortune, and they can't really change their lives against the sky.

These business routines are not uncommon, and Tsering Gesang only started to speak, and He Manzhou knew what he wanted to say.

For ordinary tourists, it is a good thing that the tour guide speaks so carefully, even if he doesn't buy anything in the end, just listening to the legendary story of adding oil and vinegar to the tour guide, such as when Mr. XX asked for incense in the temple, he actually saw the glow with the appearance of God and Buddhism, and then the business was prosperous and half of the body was smooth. Miss XX escaped a car accident because she wore a nine-eyed dzi, and the dzi that had been with her for many years and was inexplicably lost one morning, so she delayed the time and went out a little later than usual, and found that the previous bus had an accident when she arrived downstairs in the unit....... These kinds of stories are so mysterious that they often become a different kind of spice for the journey.

In the end, the tourists are happy to listen, no matter how true or false these legends are, they can also listen to a good time, and the tour guides are also happy, the nature of the work is like this, everyone is clear in purpose, each has its own plan.

The tour guide has seen so many tourists coming and going from the north and south of the river, and most of them have a little bit of the ability to see people, and sometimes it is inevitable to see people put down dishes, and they will use those sales words on the blade with sharp eyes.

For example, when they see tourists who are so careful that they have to buy a bottle of drinks in the scenic spot, they may be a little colder, and when they see tourists who are stupid and have a lot of money and spend a lot of money at every turn, they will talk more about the situation, and if they can really take the opportunity to sell a few expensive souvenirs, it can be regarded as a sum of extra money in their pockets.

But Miss He has been dealing with antiques and antiques since she was a child, and just the identification of the Buddha statue and the identification of the age and authenticity of the jade Buddha head can be quite quoted and talked about for many hours.

So He Manzhou simply opened his words, and he could save a little time for each other.

"You are accustomed to hanging these small flags in the shape of squares or angular strips, and fixing them on the doorheads, ropes, or branches, with Tibetan mantras, scriptures, Buddha statues, mascots, and other things with meanings, which are the "wind horse flags" that are popular in Tibetan areas. ”

"What, did your homework ahead of time?"

"Isn't that homework, isn't it normal? ”

At Ren Gesang's playful gaze last time, He Manzhou chuckled lightly and responded casually.

"These are just the basic skills in our industry, and anyone can say that they are the way. Oh yes, I forgot to tell you, sister, although I don't look a few years older than you, but I have been in the antique business for many years, and I am half an expert. So, little brother, don't expect to sell us those deceptive things. ”

"Deceitful stuff?" Tsering Gesang obviously didn't think much of He Manzhou, and didn't think she could have any real skills, and he didn't think that he was bragging about this at all, and he only thought that this was Miss He bragging about it, "There are gods three feet above your head, and if you say this kind of thing in front of the gods, are you really not afraid that you will be condemned by the gods?"

"What, do you have to let me dismantle the platform?" He Manzhou's lips raised slightly, and his gaze followed Tsering Gesang's body, "If you really say that you were condemned by the gods, you are the one who is really disrespectful to the gods, just now you said that you were full of holy relics, but I looked at these beads and silverware you were hanging, and only this obsidian bracelet was a little special....... Using the gimmick of the gods to cheat money, is this how you have a god?"

Hearing this, Bai Yi, who had not spoken, sank from the top of his eyebrows, and his eyes sharpened a little. It's okay that this is an unintentional remark, but Miss He's keen observation is that she actually pointed out the core of the problem. This obsidian bracelet is exactly why Bai Yicong first noticed Tsering Gesang.

As the object of observation, Tsering Gesang was obviously somewhat surprised.

The blade of grass between his lips was suddenly bitten out by him with a little bitterness, he raised his head and glanced directly at He Manzhou, and the consideration in his heart became stronger again. There is no other reason, this bracelet is just a casual mention, but it touched the soft underbelly of his heart in a daze, and suddenly mobilized all the sensitive nerves of Tsering Gesang, and directly switched to the mode of vigilance.

Because this obsidian bracelet is the only thing Yang Jin gave him.

In fact, when these two strangers mentioned Kawagebo Peak, Tsering Gesang knew that they were not ordinary tourists, nor were they just tourists visiting Tibetan areas. They must have some degree of secrecy and an unknown purpose. However, they also came to the Snow Maiden, how much do they know about this legend, and to what extent can they find out, whether it is a good person who heard the wind and came, or a person with a heart who hides deeply, everything is still unknown.

It is precisely because of this that Tsering Gesang wants to know more about them.

But before that, Tsering Gesang paid more attention to Bai Yicong.

This man shrouded in fog is always unpredictable, as if he carries a great mystery about him, and it is almost instinctive to arouse Tsering Gesang's curiosity. As for the quirky little girl beside him, she is more like an arrogant girlfriend who is protected by a good student, and she is Bai Yicong's partner in love, at most, she has a little bit of unimportant or unimportant use value, and there is nothing else.

But this judgment was completely subverted in a few simple words of communication.

Tsering Gesang was somewhat surprised to find that He Manzhou had a bit of the meaning of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger.

Or rather, this girl is also part of the mystery.
