"I've heard of this Buddhist prayer bead, but there are no monks who use stones to make prayer beads!"

After listening to the explanation, Han Yan nodded suddenly, but immediately asked, "Moreover, Brother Yue, how do you know that this stubborn stone bracelet is from the hands of the Buddhist family?" ”

Indeed, Buddhist prayer beads are rarely made of mortal stones, and most of them are the seven treasures of Buddhism, which are used as raw materials for prayer beads, namely clams, agate, crystal, coral, amber, pearls, and musk.

As for Yuebai, he nodded undeniably in this regard, but immediately, he explained to Han Yan his personal guess about the string of stubborn stone prayer beads in his hand.

"It's not that all prayer beads have to use the seven treasures of Buddhism, for example, in recent years, lapis lazuli or obsidian, this kind of cheap mortal stone, used to make prayer beads, and I also heard that a buddy made a string of prayer beads by using the black and white stones he happened to dig up when he went up the mountain to dig wild things."

Speaking of this, Yuebai took a sip of tea, lit another cigarette, smoked and continued: "So, in modern society, with money, you can find real materials, but if you don't have money, then everything is empty, there is a famous saying in Buddhism, isn't it called color is empty, empty is color, therefore, it is not surprising that there are stubborn stone prayer beads." ”

"Oh, you're also a reason, but it's from the hands of Buddhist monks, where can you see this?"

Han Yan looked at the stubborn stone bracelet and thought, there is no Buddhist mantra on it, and there is no pattern of scripture carving, no matter how you look at it, I can't see the meaning of Buddhism!

"I only said that it may be a Buddhist hand-twisted piece, not a Buddhist monk!"

Yuebai explained: "There is a cloud in Buddhism: all living beings are Buddhas, and Buddhas are also sentient beings, so all living beings are equal to you and me, and Buddha and all living beings are equal!" That is to say, this thing is likely to be a Buddhist believer who believes in Buddhism, goes to the temple of Buddhism, and asks for a belief object, or it may be a tool used by a Buddhist disciple who travels to the party, after all, believers and Buddha are equal, since they are sought in Buddhism, then this thing is also considered to be a Buddhist thing. ”

"Also, the Buddhist rosary also has a number, less than 14, more than 1,000 and 80, but in each string of rosary beads, there is a main bead, and it is more than a main bead, which becomes less than 15, more than 1,0081, and the main bead represents the Buddha, and there is a rope to represent the Dharma, as for a number of beads, it represents the Sangha, that is, the Buddha, the Dharma, and the Sangha Three Treasures, all in a string of prayer beads, contained in it."

Speaking of this, Yuebai counted the stubborn stone rosary beads and said: "But this string of prayer beads is eighteen, eighteen in the Buddhist family, representing the eighteen non-common laws, and also representing the inner six roots, the outer six dusts, plus the six senses, a total of eighteen worlds." ”

"Eighteen? Brother Yue, are you judging that this string of stubborn stone prayer beads is something of Buddhism simply by comparing the numbers of the eighteen realms of Buddhism? ”

"Eighteen is not the standard number of Buddhist prayer beads, didn't I just say it, each string of Buddhist prayer beads has a different meaning, but it is necessary to add one more main bead representing the Buddha in order to be regarded as a complete Buddhist prayer bead, that is to say, nineteen beads are the number of eighteen non-common prayer beads!"

As he spoke, Yuebai flattened the stubborn stone rosary, and put the beads on the rope together, and then pointed to a gap in the rope and said: "Look here, the length of the rope must grow the sum of the diameters of the number of beads, but the extra section here, don't you think it's too loose?" ”

Not to mention, as soon as the Moon Sect Master reminded him like this, Han Yan really saw some doorways.

I saw that each of these stubborn stone prayer beads was less than one centimeter in diameter, but if the eighteen stone beads were put together, the rope would be too long.

If you hold it in your hand, it will naturally not show that the rope is too long, but at this time, the rosary is placed horizontally on the coffee table, and it is carefully and carefully smoothed by the Moon Sect Master, which reflects a problem on the rope.

And the most important thing is that the notch on the rope, there is no ordinary bracelet, or the rope on the handle, which looks natural, after all, the excess part on it is the diameter length of two boulder beads.

However, in the requirements of the Buddhist rosary, the main bead in most beads is one size larger than the sub-bead, that is to say, if there is a main bead that is larger than the stone bead and the excess place placed on the rope, then the stone rosary can be said to be perfect.

"You mean to say that this is indeed a Buddhist prayer bead, but the number of beads is missing?"

"That's right!"

Yuebai nodded and said: "It's because of the lack of a larger bead that I dare to guess that this is a Buddhist thing, because, if the disciples of the Buddhist family encounter a dharma and need to suppress the evil spirit, most of them will take off the main bead on the rosary and use it as a key magic weapon to suppress the evil spirit, just like our Taoist demon sealing formation, the formation is the largest area to seal the demon and evil spirit, but the array eye is the key to starting the formation or generating the formation, and the main bead on the rosary is equivalent to the formation eye of the formation. ”

"Oh, that's what feelings are all about!"

Han Yan finally understood, but she was not a Taoist disciple, let alone a Buddhist believer, so she didn't care much about it, she only felt that the favorite thing she received this time was a treasure.

"By the way, just talking about your baby itself, I forgot to ask you, did you pick up this thing in the hands of that fool?"

Yuebai thought, this stubborn stone rosary with a layer of obsidian sealed on the outside must not be an ordinary ordinary thing, otherwise, it would not have been missed by Han Yan, who didn't know anything, and besides, why did the appearance of this string of stubborn stone rosaries be sealed with a layer of obsidian stone shell? Is there any implicit secret or purpose to this?

"Oh, I don't know who the seller is, but judging by the accent, he's definitely not from our city..."

According to Swallow, the owner of this stubborn stone bracelet is a very strange outsider.

This outsider appeared in the middle of the road this morning, just when the antique street in Harbin City was just beginning to be lively.

Moreover, this person walked from east to west, from south to north, but every time he entered and exited someone else's shop, he would not stay for too long, almost four or five minutes at most, and then he would leave the shop and turn to the next one.

Of course, Han Yan's Juling Pavilion is on a certain end of the antique street, but Yanzi likes to sleep lazily, and usually opens after ten o'clock.

Anyway, in the antique industry, there will not be any good business all day long, but once a business comes to the door, it will be a big deal for three years.

Therefore, when this strange outsider first appeared on the antique street, Han Yan didn't know it, and it happened that when Yanzi was about to open for business, this person crossed the door of the Juling Pavilion and went to the next door of Yanzi.
