Chapter 377: Blizzard Rainbow Festival (3)
"I've seen the weather forecast, and the blizzard is four hours away from hitting the capital." For a long time, said Turnesky.
I didn't give him a chance to explain at all, and immediately made up for what he didn't say: "The rainbow puja has to be done in a blizzard, right?" Then, I can conclude that the person who presided over the rainbow puja came from the famous temple at the top of the snow-capped mountain, and could look up to Mount Everest...... Good, good, good. β
"Yes." Turnesky nodded.
I deliberately concealed the name of that temple, but anyone who has been to Everest knows that the existence of that temple is a human miracle, and almost no one can afford to practice it.
In Zen Buddhism, "suffering" and "happiness" are defined as two extremes, and the more bitter the practice, the more "happiness" you will get after enlightenment, and the greater your chances of success. Therefore, even if they practice at the top of the snow-capped mountains, all practitioners are calm, not afraid of the hardships of life and the threat of death.
In the classics, at least half of the records of rainbow transformation occurred in the vast snow, and it was named "The Record of the Night Run of the Blizzard Rainbow Master".
At the very least, Turnesky and I have been able to begin to communicate the essence of the rainbow puja, even if he is reluctant to answer my questions head-on, revealing the identity of the master who is presiding over the puja.
The temple is famous, just like Mount Everest, which stands at the top of the world's highest mountain. I searched in my memory and sorted the masters of the monastery according to their age, excluding those who were over 80 years old, and among the remaining masters, there was only one master who was about 65 years old, named "Dan Ma Sheng", whose physical condition was still worthy of a battle. If the puja is presided over by him, it will at least be reassuring.
"The fame of Master Dan Ma Sheng has been admired for a long time. Four years ago, I traveled to Mount Everest to visit that monastery, but Guru Thanh Ma Sheng was not in the monastery at that time, saying that there was a grand puja in a distant country and invited him to come and guide him. This time, I believe I can see him at the rainbow festival. I said.
Turnesky nodded: "Yes." β
Our conversation was very delicate, and although he could not tell me personally who was presiding over the rainbow puja, he acknowledged my name and indirectly answered my question.
"Okay." I nodded, "That way, I'm relieved." β
Turnesky did not reply, but turned his face away, raised his right hand, touched his ear, and made an expression of attentive listening.
He must have had a tiny headset hidden in his ear, and right now, someone was reporting to him through the headphones.
"What?" Turnesky lost his temper and suddenly cried out.
I walked to the far end of the conference room and left room for the call. Everyone has the right to privacy, and eavesdropping on someone's phone calls is the most despised act of the villain.
Dan Masheng was a disciple of the tenth generation of that temple, and at his age, he could have lived in the temple to practice and left the external affairs to his disciples. However, as a practitioner, he regards "practice and work" as the purpose of his life, never lazy or perfunctory, and does everything himself, and has become a model of a teacher in Tibetan Buddhism.
I appreciate people who do things and I want to work with them.
Of course, in the field of metaphysics, "doing things" is only one part, and "talent" is the key.
"Mr. Long, Mr. Long?" Turnesky cried out.
I turned my head and looked at him calmly.
"Carlo said that Guru Dan Ma Sheng instructed him to meet the distinguished guests of the Central Plains." Turnesky covered his ears and whispered to me.
I replied in a deep voice: "Speak slowly, one sentence at a time." β
I could see the meaning from his short words. However, I prefer to infect the other party with my calm attitude, so that the other party can also calm down and calm down to face any unexpected event, rather than being frizzy and panicking when encountering anything.
If everyone fights the catastrophe together, then they are comrades-in-arms. I want my comrades-in-arms to be masters, not mediocre people.
"Carlo is Dan Masheng's apprentice and one of the nine people who will preside over the puja this time. Twenty-four hours ago, Guru Dan Masheng was in retreat and meditating, and now that he has opened an account and is about to meet the distinguished guests from the Central Plains. I guess he was referring to you. Turnesky replied.
I nodded calmly, "Yes, it's me." Now, take me to him. β
Turnesky did not move immediately, but stared at my face.
I understand his feelings, for a national spy leader, "suspicious and fickle" is the norm. If he did not have this characteristic, he would definitely not be able to sit in the position of Minister of Security.
"Well, since you're not in a hurry, sit down and talk." I dragged a chair and sat down slowly.
The other party is suspicious, and no matter how much I do until I dispel my suspicions, it is useless for me to do more. The more you do, the more suspicious the other person becomes.
"Do you know Dan Ma Sheng?" Turnesky asked.
"Just ask the point, don't go around in circles. Minister, I am not a spy of any country, nor do I have any coveting of the political, military, or economic affairs of the northern powers, nor do I want to take any treasures or military secrets from here. My nationality has always been the People's Republic of China, and I have no connection or contact with the Pentagon, the CIA, the FBI, or Area 51. My actions are only the acts of citizens of the People's Republic of China, and have nothing to do with any state power or non-governmental organization. With the strength of your spies, it only takes twenty minutes to find out, so please arrange for them to investigate immediately. I said frankly.
I gave a time limit of "twenty minutes", but it is likely that before I entered here, the spies of the great northern powers had already found out my history and did not need to re-examine it.
Turnesky did not sit down, pressed his hands to the table, staring at me from afar.
The great powers of the North have considerable experience in "espionage warfare", and for most of the time after World War II, the "spy war" between the country and the United States never stopped. So, if I'm a spy or not, they'll definitely be able to find out.
"Do you work for Nepal? Or for Uttar Pradesh, India? Or is it a terrorist group roaming the Pamirs? Turnesky asked.
I shook my head and didn't answer.
Nepal, Uttar Pradesh or terrorist groups are very far away from my life, and I don't have the unique talent to gain traction in those areas. When Turnesky said this, he was only a temptation, and a meaningless temptation.
"No one can escape meβ" Turnesky said to himself.
It was an extremely serious, extremely insulting warning, and he was not talking to himself, but to me.
"What about the Mossad people? Don't they often send the same warning to the whole world? I smiled.
After World War II, the Mossad's remark that it "chased to the ends of the world" was once talked about. However, half a century has passed, and this statement has become a thing of the past, and if it is brought up again, it will become a joke.
The current international situation and the security measures of various countries are not what they were after World War II, and even if Turnesky has the intention to launch a worldwide pursuit, it is impossible to pursue across borders without scruples, and even small countries like Singapore, Java, and the Philippines will set up many obstacles, making it difficult for spies of major powers to move an inch.
"Hmph." Turnesky snorted coldly twice, unable to answer my question.
"Take me to Dan Masheng." I say.
"It's not time yet, let's talk about it after we investigate clearly." Turnesky began to go around in circles again.
"You only have four hoursβno, less than four hours, and since Guru Dan Ma Sheng has delayed the timing by saying that there is going to be a Blizzard Rainbow Puja, you are a sinner in the great northern country. Minister, I have to warn you that in the field of metaphysics, a security minister like you is not even an ant. I sank my face.
Turnesky has given me too many obstructions, and it is likely that the fighter plane will be delayed, so my words are no longer polite.
Turnesky laughed: "Yes, I admit it. β
Politicians all over the world have one thing in common, and that is thick-skinned. He admitted it so frankly that I had no motivation to satirize him further.
"Mr. Long, I believe in those who have been invited, because they are from Tibet, they are pure-hearted, they don't know anything about the world, they don't have any political intentions, they just come to save people. On the contrary, Mr. Long's experience is very strange, putting aside the great future on Hong Kong Island, but he has been going north, to the northwest of your Chinese mainland, and living an obscure life of painting. This transformation was beyond everyone's expectations. I guess you've been sent by an organization to lurk somewhere else with bigger agendas? Turnesky continued.
Dunhuang is the focus of Chinese culture and art, and it is also a place of concern for various forces from all over the world.
I understand Turnesky's doubts, but I have explained them so many times that I can't give any more convincing reasons.
"Although I have to investigate my motives, I am now going to see the monks from Tibet. Minister, don't live in the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, I came here completely by chance, and has nothing to do with the political situation in your country. I said.
Next, Turnesky spent at least half an hour answering the phone, and at least a dozen short messages came in, ringing and releasing text message reminders.
Eventually, the news he received worked and finally put him at ease.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Long, a misunderstanding." He laughs.
"Take me...... Let's go meet the visitors from Tibet. "I don't want to say a word about his apology.
"Okay, okay." Turnesky opened the door himself, and then stretched out his hand to invite, "Please, please." β
We made a dozen turns in the labyrinthine corridor and came to a large iron gate.
The iron door was hidden, and wisps of green smoke poured out of the crack in the door, making the corridor in front of the door smoky.
From afar, I can identify this as "Himalayan Tibetan sandalwood", a kind of incense stick made from sandalwood chips, chalcedony chips, and barley chaff, which is completely handmade by the monks in the temple, and is only limited to the temple's own use, and will never be sold to the public.
"It's inside." Turnesky pointed to the iron gate and strode ahead.
"Waitβ" I grabbed him.
Just five steps outside the iron gate, there was a charm painted on the left and right walls. The spell on the left wall is black and resembles a circle the thickness of nine pencils. The charm on the wall on the right is red, resembling a small curved bow.
Luckily, Turnesky was held back by me, otherwise he would have stepped into the area of a circle and a bent bow.
"That's a forbidden charm." I say.
"Forbidden? I invited them, and can't I go in? "Turnesky was a little annoyed.
"There must be something indescribable about the master's approach." I said lightly.
"So what now?" Turnesky asked.
I nodded, "You go back, I'll go see Master Dan Masheng." β
Turnesky shook his head: "You are going to see it alone?" No, whatever agreement arises between you and them, I have to be present to supervise it, so as not to cause trouble. β
He's so stubborn that I can't get in and out.
"Hum", a gong suddenly sounded behind the iron gate, and someone asked loudly: "Who is coming?" β
I replied in a low voice, "Long Fei asks to see Master Dan Masheng." β
"Wait." The people inside the door were very arrogant, and their voices were cold, without any human touch.
I waited for a minute, but there was no sound in the door, and the person I had just questioned seemed to have left.
"I'll go in by myself, you'll be outside." I commanded Turnesky.
I walked slowly, came to the black circle, stretched out my sleeve, and wiped the nine circles together.
The original meaning of this forbidden charm is "Heart-piercing Bow and Nine Arrows", and these circles are the targets of the invisible arrows. When a person passes through the middle of the bow and arrow, it will automatically touch the mechanism, and nine invisible arrows will shoot out from the right side, passing through the person and inserting themselves into the nine circles.
Many sects have charms and have different spiritualities. I don't want to risk it, so I'll first wipe off the circles and anything passes.
"It's that simple?" Turnesky shook his head slightly.
I ignored him, walked a few more steps, tapped three times on the door, and pushed it in.
The back of the door was very spacious, but now it was covered in green smoke, and I could only see a stove burning in the middle of the room, and the flame in the hearth was not red, but green, and it was very strange.
Around the stove sat nine monks, all dressed in red robes, holding a thin scroll in their hands, muttering sutras.
"Everyone, excuse me, I'm Long Fei." I politely bowed my hand.
"Turn a rainbow into a frightening rainbow and ignite the Western Heavenly Realm...... Turning into a rainbow...... From people to rainbows, it is really an insurmountable barrier, if you use the power of the "Diamond Sutra" to make a passage, can you pass? After the past, what can be done to turn one's solid body into a gaseous state and leave with one's soul? Is it a burning method? No, no, that's not Honghua ......," a voice murmured from behind the monks.
"Of course it's not rainbow." I said in a deep voice.
Iridescent is not a physical process, nor a chemical process, but a metaphysical process. Therefore, what this man said is unreasonable and meaningless.
Anyone who pursues rainbowization through fire will eventually turn to ashes, and there will be no bones left, which is no different from the "cremation and cremation" of mortals.
Isn't it pitiful that this monk came for the "Rainbow Transformation" and didn't understand the ultimate meaning of "Rainbow Transformation"?
