Chapter 100: Six Wooden Buddha Beads
On these wooden beads, except for the bead with a slightly different carving technique, the surface of the other wooden beads is carved with the statue of the Venerable Arhat, which is the eighteen Arhats in Buddhism!
Where are these ordinary wooden beads, they are clearly Buddha beads, also known as prayer beads!
Obviously, if these Buddha beads are strung together, they are clearly a string of Buddha beads!
And the wooden beads that are different from the other eighteen Buddha beads, on the surface, only engrave a simple but magnificent "Buddha" word, which is naturally the main bead of this Buddha bead bracelet. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The person who hid these Buddha beads was also well-intentioned, and he actually came up with such a method of hiding wood with wood, and also scattered these Buddha beads.
I don't know who the person who hid these beads is.
If that person knew that the small wooden carving he used to conceal the Buddha beads had fallen into the hands of someone else so easily, he might not have been angry.
The Buddha beads that can be hidden with such great effort cannot be ordinary goods!
Chu Ning picked up a Buddha bead with a solemn face and looked at it.
A Buddhist bead bracelet made of eighteen beads and a main bead is often called a bead.
Buddha beads have always been divided into three types, holding beads, wearing beads, and hanging beads.
And Peizhu is one of the most common.
The raw materials of the beads are often known for their preciousness and bright colors, and they are not only one of the most suitable instruments for Buddhists to promote Buddhism, but also can be used as accessories to embellish themselves.
Therefore, from ancient times to the present, whether they believe in Buddhism or not, there have never been a few people who carry beads on their own.
Because of this, the materials used in Peizhu are becoming more and more valuable, and there are not only one or two pieces that are as rare as national treasures.
Chu Ning took the Buddha beads in his hand and studied them for a long time, and finally determined that the raw materials for making these Buddha beads were actually the rare six woods in the Buddha beads!
The Liudao wood that everyone is talking about now grows in most provinces and regions in China, but it is not cherished. Moreover, it has a long flowering period, and is often used for garden decoration, and it is also used to make Buddhist beads.
However, this kind of Liudao wood is obviously not worth surprising Chu Ning.
Although the material of these Buddha beads in Chu Ning's hand is also Liudao wood, it refers specifically to the Liudao wood that grows in Wutai Mountain!
Wutai Mountain, located in Shanxi Province of China, is known as the four famous mountains of Buddhism in China together with Putuo Mountain in Zhejiang, Jiuhua Mountain in Anhui Province and Emei Mountain in Sichuan.
Such a place is naturally unusual for Buddhism.
The Liudao wood from Mt. Wutai is yellowish in color and has six light-colored stripes on the surface, making it very hard.
In the view of Buddhism, the six stripes on the surface of the six woods represent the six reincarnations in Buddhism, which is related to Buddhism. The six trees that grow in Wutai Mountain, the holy land of Buddhism, are almost all about to become one of the sacred relics of Buddhism.
According to legend, Mount Wutai was the place where Manjushri Bodhisattva preached the Dharma. Therefore, Mount Wutai is also known as the holy place of Manjushri.
The Buddha beads made of six trees of Wutai Mountain are regarded as the token of Manjushri Bodhisattva by Buddhist believers, with far-reaching significance, and are often cherished and used for life.
For any piece of wood, the older it is, the more precious it becomes.
The Buddhist beads in Chu Ning's hand, looking at the textures, are obviously not made of wood that is more than ten years old or even a few years old.
It must have been more than a hundred years.
Such Wutai Mountain Six Dao Wood is often carefully protected by the Buddhist temples of Wutai Mountain, and rarely falls into the hands of outsiders, which is also more precious.
When Chu Ning rubbed the Buddha beads in his hand, he could clearly feel the slippery and warm of the Buddha beads themselves, obviously these Buddha beads had been carried by people for more than decades, and they were definitely not the goods that were placed in ordinary stores.
As for the specific age of this bead...... Judging from the reaction of her perception to the Buddha beads, these Buddha beads are at least the things of the Song Dynasty!
That's pretty impressive.
Such a superb Buddha bead, there is no rope, only the lonely nineteen beads are left, and I don't know what embarrassing things have happened.
But even so, even if these Buddha beads are released alone, they can definitely be sold at an unexpectedly high price!
And this whole string of Buddhist beads, if you can find a monk who has attained the Tao and re-connect it with the rope that has been enshrined in front of the Buddha, the value can almost be comparable to that of ordinary national treasures!
If some Buddhists hear about it, maybe the price will go up even more!
After calculating the value of these Buddha beads, Chu Ning was stunned!
She doesn't believe in Buddhism, but she doesn't have any resistance to it.
But these beads are so beautiful, and the feel of pinching them in your hand is also very comfortable.
Chu Ning just pinched a Buddha bead and swirled it around in the palm of his hand, and the whole person's slightly impatient heart immediately calmed down, as if he had really been at peace.
She thought in a trance, where is this still an ordinary rosary, it is clearly a Buddhist magic weapon, right?!
I'm really lucky this time......
Chu Ning immediately liked the Buddha beads in front of him.
She immediately made a decision in her mind.
No matter how much these beads are worth, she will never let them out, and will only stay by her side.
And now the big problem is that she has to find a suitable rope for these beads before she can actually use them.
How do you find the right rope?
Chu Ning's mind suddenly appeared in the figure of his father.
Chu Yingluo, as Fang Taihe's son-in-law, is not only a well-known antique appraiser in China, but also inherits Fang Taihe's connections, and develops and expands them.
Among Chu Yingluo's close friends, there is one who is the presiding abbot of Leiguang Temple, a famous ancient temple in Hanzhou City, and Master Duchen.
When Chu Ning was young, he went to Leiguang Temple with his grandfather, and he also met this master of dust.
In her impression, Master Duchen is a very gentle person, always smiling, especially pleasing children.
However, she had only been there once.
Later, her grandfather died, her parents divorced, and her life became a mess, where was she still in the mood to go to any temple?
Now that more than ten years have passed, no matter how good Master Duchen's memory is, I'm afraid I can't remember her.
It was obviously unrealistic for her to go to Master Duchen alone to ask for a rope.
Even if she uses the name of her grandfather and father, I'm afraid it won't have any effect.
Unless, her father can personally intervene for her.
Is she going to ask her father?
Chu Ning hesitated for a while.
After thinking about it for a long time, Chu Ning couldn't make up her mind.
She sighed silently, carefully put away the beads, and reassembled the little monkey wood carving and put it on her bookshelf, leaving this matter behind for the time being.
Whether she wants to beg her father for these Buddhist beads once, she has to think about it.
