Chapter 16: Poems on Jade

Abu's sudden cry startled Tian Tian. She turned back and asked:

"What's wrong?"

"Is there a word on your jade?" Abu asked, pointing to the jade in Tian Tian's hand.

"Are you talking about that?" Tian Tian raised the jade in his hand and said, "It's a word, it's a word, a puncuo's measure." ”

"No, I'm talking about the back." Abu pointed to the jade again.

Tian Tian turned the jade over and said, "Oh, do you mean that?" I don't know if these are words! ”

After Tian Tian turned the jade over, Abu saw the Tibetan characters carved on the back of the jade.

He said, "These are words, nothing but Tibetan. ”

"Really? I don't know either, and I don't understand it. Tian Tian said.

"Can you take it off and show me?" Abu asked.

"Okay, you can help me translate it and see what these Tibetan words mean."

After saying that, Tian Tian took down the jade and handed it to Abu.

Abu looked carefully at the text on the back of the jade and said, "It seems to be a poem." ”

"What poem?" Tian Tian asked.

The general meaning of the poem is:

Ups and downs are a dream, and they are free to travel in their dreams.

To wake up from the dream, the fairy must turn back. ”

When Abu finished reading, he turned back to Tian Tian and asked, "What does this mean?" ”

Tian Tian was also very strange, she took the jade and hurried to the Mahei Lama.

"May I ask Mahei Lama, what does this mean?" Tian Tian asked.

"What's wrong?" Lama Mahei looked at Tian Tian and asked.

"Why is there a poem on it?" Tian Tian asked, pointing to the jade.

"Poetry? What poem? Lama Mahei looked at Tian Tian with a puzzled expression.

"That's the poem engraved on it."

With that, Tian Tian handed the jade to the Mahei Lama.

Lama Mahei looked at the jade stone and said suspiciously, "How can there be poetry on it?" ”

"You don't know there's a poem on it? However, when I showed it to you before, you were quite sure that this was Ngawang Hok*. Tian Tian was also confused by Lama Mahei's puzzled expression.

"It's true that this is Ngawang Ho*, but I have never seen a poem on it! Moreover, I am very sure that this piece of jade must have not had these words before, before its back was very smooth, only the lower right corner of the front has a 'cuo' word, and I also sighed that this is really a good piece of jade! ”

"Are you sure?"

"I'm pretty sure it's Ngawang Ho*'s personal belonging, and I can't be mistaken." Mahei Lama said with certainty.

"However, when this thing was handed down from my ancestors, it always had words on the back. Why didn't you find it the last time I showed it to you? ”

"Last time you just put it in the palm of your hand and showed it to me, I only saw the front, not the back. At that time, as soon as I saw the word 'cuo', I already recognized that it was Ngawang Huo*. I didn't expect that on the back of it, there would be more of these words. ”

"Then, according to you, this is indeed Ngawang's life* thing, and these words were engraved later?"

"Yes."

"When was it engraved?"

"I don't know. It's just that when I saw it, it didn't have any words on it. It was only after Phuntsok said that he had accidentally lost it, and I never saw him again. ”

"Could it be that Ngawanghuo* engraved it before giving it to my grandmother?" Tian Tian asked suspiciously.

"Or, perhaps, your grandmother carved it herself." Xu Shun on the side said.

"But it's Tibetan, and my grandmother doesn't know Tibetan!"

"Your grandmother lived here for a year, and it's no surprise that she knows some Tibetan!"

"If it was really my grandmother who carved it, then she could use Chinese characters, why use Tibetan, none of us can understand Tibetan."

"Perhaps, that's what your grandmother wants. She's just there to make people not understand! ”

"You mean, she did it on purpose? But why did she do it? Tian Tian asked again.

"Deliberately incomprehensible, perhaps, to hide some secrets!" Xu Shun guessed.

"What a secret, it needs to be engraved on such an important thing, you know, this is as important as my grandmother's life."

"So, this secret must also be important." Xu Shun said.

"But I don't know if this was carved by my grandmother!"

"There are only two possibilities, either your grandmother or Ngawang Ho*. Now, it is impossible to verify who carved it. However, no matter which of them carved it, to be able to engrave it on such an important thing shows that this secret is not trivial. ”

"What secrets is hidden in this poem?" Tian Tian took the jade in his hand and looked at it seriously.

Ups and downs are a dream, and they are free to travel in their dreams.

To wake up from the dream, the fairy must turn back.

Suddenly, Xu Shun shouted: "I understand!" ”

"Got what?" Tian Tian asked.

"I understand what this poem is about. Isn't that what you're talking about? The story of her and Phuntsok is like a dream, she followed him here and spent a happy time, isn't it just a getaway? When they were about to separate, she was going to leave from here, wasn't that the time when the dream was about to wake up? To wake up from the dream, the fairy must turn back. If he wants to leave here, the fairy must turn back. Could it be that when the fairy turns back, he can open the way to the outside world? Xu Shun said.

"Are you saying that the fairy's head is the mechanism that opens the barrier?" Tian Tian asked.

"Isn't it?" Xu Shun said.

Everyone suddenly realized!

"So, the mechanism that opened the barrier is there!" Xu Shun pointed to the fairy's head and said.

Mahei Lama was also happy for everyone, and he said excitedly:

"We found a source of water and we found our way home. Thank you to the Buddha, thank you. The water source has been restored, and everything here has been reborn! ”

"Mahei Lama, your wish has been granted! Now you don't have to worry about it anymore! Xu Shun said.

"Yes, thanks to you, you are our benefactors!" Mahei Lama said to Xu Shun.

"It's a pity that we're leaving, and we can't see this beautiful village with our own eyes anymore." Xu Shun said.

"Are you leaving?" Mahei Lama asked.

"Yes." Xu Shun said.

"But, you're our job*, you're gone, what are we going to do?" Mahei Lama said.

"I don't belong here, and I can't do your job.* Being regarded by you as a living* is just a coincidence, a mistake. Perhaps, this is a task given to me by God! Now that the task is complete, it is time to continue to disturb your life, we should go back to where we should be, and you should return to your peaceful life! Xu Shun said.

After saying that, he took out the beads from his bag, took Lama Mahei's hand, put the beads on his hand, and said, "This bead does not belong to me, it is left to you by Ngawang Huo*, take good care of it, and leave it to your new life*." ”

"But......" Mahei Lama wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Xu Shun.

"No, but. Keep it up! Xu Shun said.

Lama Mahei didn't say anything more, he took a ring encrusted with beeswax from his finger, and said to Xu Shun: "This is my belongings, I'll give it to you!" That way, you'll remember everything here! ”

After speaking, he put the ring he took off on Xu Shun's finger.

Xu Shun shook the ring on his finger, he hugged Mahei Lama and said to him:

"Don't worry, I'll always remember you!"

They finally found this way to the outside world, and everyone couldn't help but get excited. However, in the blink of an eye, they are about to leave, leaving everything that seems to be a dream, and everyone has mixed feelings.

"You're leaving, are you ready?" Xu Shun asked everyone.

"To be honest, I'm reluctant to be here." Tian Tian suddenly became a little sad.

"Mahei Lama, thank you for taking care of us during this time." Tian Tian hugged Mahei Lama.

Wang Feng also hugged Lama Mahei and said, "Thank you! ”

Mouse, Yang Li, Shishi, Abu, everyone hugged Mahei Lama and said goodbye to him.

Xu Shun finally hugged the Mahei Lama, and he hugged the Mahei Lama tightly, unwilling to let go.

"You must be well!" He said in a trembling voice in the ears of the Mahei Lama.

"Don't worry, our life*!" Ma Hei also hugged him tightly.

Xu Shun let go of the Mahei Lama, and he rubbed the tears in his eyes.

He turned around and asked the group again, "Are you ready?" ”

"Please wait a minute." Yang Li interrupted him.

"I want to say sorry and thank you to all of you! Because of my willfulness, I have caused a lot of trouble to everyone along the way, I am sorry for you, but even though I am like this, you still do not give up on me, thank you, and Mahei Lama, thank you for the help and treatment you gave me when I was injured for the first time, thank you for giving me a second life here. ”

After speaking, Yang Li bowed deeply to everyone, and her husband Shi also bowed deeply to everyone.

"Okay, it's all over, in fact, I have a lot of things that I did wrong." Tian Tian said.

"Anyway, it's our greatest relief that you're okay!" Wang Feng said.

"Yes, let's all come together and go together, there are many of them, and it is the most happy ending." Xu Shun said.

"It feels like a dream, next time I dream I'll call you!" Mouse said.

Everyone burst into laughter.

"Since you have decided to leave, I will not stay, thank you for saving our water source and giving the village a second life, we will pray for you, kind people!" Mahei Lama said.

Xu Shun climbed to the top of the circle again, he looked down at everyone, everyone nodded at him, and then he held the fairy's head in both hands and turned it back slightly.

Just as the fairy's head was completely turned to the back, a white light appeared, and a white bridge appeared behind the fairy.

Xu Shun came down from the circle, everyone stepped on the white bridge, and then, the fairy's head began to slowly turn back, everyone stood on the white bridge and waved goodbye to the Mahei Lama, just when the fairy's head turned back completely, the white light and the white bridge, as well as them on the white bridge, disappeared together.
