Chapter 583: Into the Valley, Strange
Yu Yao returned to the hotel to see Xiao Ying, who had completely recovered his usual state.
In Xiao Ying's room, Yu Yao took out this black lacquer plate.
"This thing seems to be very ordinary, what are you buying it for?" Xiao Ying couldn't help but ask after seeing it.
"It really doesn't mean much. However, the pattern of Panxin inspired me, and it was not a loss, so I bought it. Yu Yao said, and then Duan Silian became a monk, and then apprenticed to Puming, the Buddha Guangde, and the immortal ape listened to Zen, and talked about this series of situations.
Xiao Ying was also a little surprised when she heard this, "So, this cave is very likely to have something to do with Duan Silian, the emperor of Dali Kingdom, and the later monk Guangde?"
Yu Yao nodded, "If it has something to do with him, then we will have one more reference for cracking the mechanism of the entrance." ”
"Don't be nostalgic, Puming Guangde. Is this a literal and clever embedding of two Buddha names?or, is it not literal at all?" Xiao Ying muttered.
"I haven't figured it out yet. If it is not literal, then it is not easy to judge whether this 'unfriendly relationship' refers to himself and Gao Zhisheng, who is in power, or whether he and Master Puming. Yu Yao responded.
"I really don't know much about the history of Dali except for the martial arts. Xiao Ying frowned.
"Hmm. Yu Yao introduced, "As far as I know, Duan Silian was forced to take the Zen position due to Gao Zhisheng's power, but he was only in the realm of Buddhism after the Zen position. ”
Xiao Ying then asked, "Gao Zhisheng, is there anything else special?"
Yu Yao thought for a while, "He has always been in power, and later another powerful minister, Yang Yizhen, killed Emperor Duan Lianyi and established himself as emperor. Gao Zhisheng asked his son Gao Shengtai to raise troops and destroy Yang Yizhen. After Gao Zhisheng's death, Gao Shengtai continued to hold power, and later simply proclaimed himself emperor, with the country name 'Dazhong'. ”
"So, there is also a history of the death of the country in Dali?"
"Yes, but it's very short-lived, before Gao Shengtai died, he returned the edict to Duan Zhengchun, in fact, it was still Duan's Dali Kingdom. However, because the Duan regime was interrupted, it is generally called 'Houli'. ”
"Oh, the emperor behind Duan Zhengchun is Duan Yu?" Because Duan Zhengchun and Duan Yu are very famous in martial arts, Xiao Ying couldn't help but ask.
"Duan Zhengchun's son is called Duan Zhengyan, and the word and reputation are indeed the prototype of Duan Yu. Duan Zhengyan is actually a relatively accomplished emperor of Dali, with a reign of 39 years. However, although he was the emperor, at that time Dali was a vassal to the Northern Song Dynasty, and Song Huizong gave Duan Zhengyan the title of Yunnan Jiedu Envoy and King of Dali. ”
Xiao Ying twisted his fingers and turned his train of thought, "You say, if we go directly, will we waste time in front of the stone monument?"
"You were injured at the time, and you didn't be able to participate in the study carefully, but I didn't see it; I think you still have to go there once first, and study it in detail, even if it is in vain. ”
"Okay, then we'll leave early tomorrow morning. ”
At six o'clock the next morning, the two got into the car that had been chartered in advance. Originally, Yu Yao wanted to contact the taxi driver, but Xiao Ying had been in Jingliang County for a short time, and he started to make arrangements, so Yu Yao didn't mention it again.
The car drove to a village on a hillside and had to stop. After Xiao Ying explained, he and Yu Yao entered the mountain.
From where the village was, they climbed a hill to a valley with a stream, and they went a little upstream against the stream, and then they crossed another hill, and then they traveled on the top of the mountain.
It's not easy to walk along the way, but the two of them are well prepared and equipped, and Xiao Ying has been here again, so the speed is okay.
When the two of them were close to noon, they finally arrived at the valley that Xiao Ying said, the valley floor was relatively flat, but the grass was overgrown, wild trees were vertical and horizontal, and from time to time birds and hares would jump out.
"This is it!" Xiao Ying raised his hand and pointed at a place close to the mountain wall.
The stele is erected against the mountain wall, and there is a roughly oval area in front of the stele, which looks like a large piece of complete bluestone, with a long diameter of about three meters and a short diameter of about two and a half meters. It is surrounded by earthy valleys.
There are cracks in the big bluestone, as if they have been weathered and cracked over time, and there is soil in the cracks, and weeds have grown.
The inscription on the stele is just as Xiao Ying said, Yin carving, Lishu, and the eight protrusions on the stele base look about the same size, basically round, but the specific shape seems to be slightly different.
The monument and the bulge were covered with a thick layer of dust, and there were some dry things. Yu Yao pulled out a few weeds and tied them into a bunch, and then broke a thin branch and cleaned it up.
"It's a bit weird!"
After cleaning up, Yu Yao looked at it in detail, and suddenly pointed to the bulge and said to Xiao Ying, "Look, there are traces of potholes carved on these bumps, are they gossip symbols?"
Xiao Ying examined again and found that it was indeed as Yu Yao said.
It's just that the eight gossip symbols, Qiankun Zhen Gong Likan Dui Xun, were originally composed of "long and short horizontal", and the whole should also be rectangular. And these eight almost circular protrusions, which are not so regular, are basically round around them.
However, through the different potholes on the surface, it is really possible to distinguish eight different structures one by one.
Although Yu Yao doesn't know the art of Xuanmen, he still understands things in traditional history and culture such as gossip. And he also knows the mantra of the eight gossip symbols composed of "long, short and horizontal":
Dry three even, Kun six broken, Zhen Yang Yu, Gen covered bowl, away from the void, full of Kanzhong, with the lack of the top, Xun down the break.
"I didn't clean it up at the time, I didn't expect it to be like this!" Xiao Ying responded, "That's right, it's a gossip symbol, but the edges are round, and the depiction in the middle is a little less regular." But eight can correspond to each other. It's a little weird. ”
Yu Yao and Xiao Ying both said that it was strange because they synthesized their previous judgments and felt that it might be a Buddhist enchantment and a cave related to Buddhism. However, gossip is the content of Taoism, and although it will have some connections with Middle-earth Buddhism, it has no essential relationship after all.
"Could it be that this Puming Guangde is not a Buddha name?
Xiao Ying shook his head slightly, "But the spiritual power of this backlash is more like a fusion of the divine power of the Buddhist family, not like the spiritual energy of the Taoist." ”
Yu Yao nodded, "Nearly a thousand years ago, there are indeed many situations that we can understand now. As he spoke, Yu Yao pointed to the oval bluestone in front of the stele, "There are gossip symbols on the stele base, the shape and cracks of this bluestone, the more I look at it, the more it looks like a tortoise shell!"
"Huh?" Xiao Ying didn't think about it because he was injured before, and the crack seemed to be naturally generated, and grass had grown, and Yu Yao said this, he couldn't help but move in his heart, and lowered his head to study it carefully.
