After hearing this, Qin Zhen couldn't help but hesitate. In his heart, he didn't believe in any uncertain prophets in this world. Those legendary miraculous characters who can know 500 years in advance and 500 years after have not left any conclusive basis. It's just folk tales!

For Qin Zhen, the so-called prophets, divination, and foreknowledge are nothing more than a beautiful sustenance and wish of human beings for the unknowable future. Because the future is full of uncertainties, it is hoped that there is some way to predict the prophet, so as to avoid evil.

But is there really such a miraculous way of foreseeing the future? At least Qin Zhen didn't believe it.

From ancient times to the present, from China to the world, how many emperors who have been martial throughout their lives have not escaped their untimely death and the variables of national fortunes? If there are really people who can predict the future with that kind of spell, why don't these supreme kings who are powerful in the world take advantage of the evil themselves?

In that case, Qin Shi Huang would not have visited the summer to find immortals, Julius Caesar would not have died because of a miscalculation, and Lincoln would not have had to accompany his wife to the theater despite dissuasion.

At first, the young Hitler only wanted to be a painter. If his art teacher could have foreseen that Hitler would have turned into a great demon king who had severely damaged human civilization, destroyed more than half of the world's families, and launched the heinous World War II after he became a painter, would he have done his best to cultivate and counsel Hitler to fulfill his dream of being a painter, thus preventing the birth of the demon king?

So, looking at the changes in human beings in the world, where will there be any ability to predict the future?

Qin Zhen is a person who can't hide his feelings, and all his thoughts are clearly written on his face. Especially for Yudong Gu Jie and them, he really felt that there was no need to hide them. So at this moment, Yudong easily understood what Qin Zhen was thinking. So, he raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "You don't believe in the prophet's leaves." Isn't it? ”

Judging from Yu Dong's expression, Qin Zhen couldn't tell which one he was more inclined to. Or could Qin Zhen not see that Yudong wanted him to believe it? Or do you hope he doesn't believe it? But then after thinking about it, Qin Zhen still felt that the old man should be frank and honest, and say whatever he wants.

So he hesitated for a moment and said, "I have always been in awe of the ghosts and gods. You can't say you don't believe, and you can't say you believe it all. But what kind of fateful future is such a thing, I really don't want to comment on it. After all, from ancient times to the present, no one has escaped because they predicted the future. ”

Yu Dong nodded, and did not say anything about Qin Zhen's thoughts. Instead, he said, "Foreknowledge does not mean that it can change the future." Let's not talk about whether the prophets of Indian Buddhism had that miraculous ability. Let's start with the foreknowledge of our own country's history.

The ancient ways of prediction in China are mainly divided into four categories.

First, physiognomy. These include people, places, and days. That is, today's looks, feng shui, and yellow calendars.

Second, three forms. These three styles refer to Qimen Dunjia, Liuren, and Taiyi.

Third, elephant occupancy. They are oracle bone divination, astrological horoscope, and dream divination.

Fourth, numerology. This numerology is a bit more complicated. These include the horoscopes, the hours, and the hexagrams. And the star fate refers to the five-star life pushing technique, Ziwei Doushu, and the nine-palace gossip escape method. The hour refers to the four pillars of fortune telling, zodiac fortune telling, and five elements of weighing life.

As for the hexagrams, that is Zhou Yi, Plum Blossom Yi Shu, Huozhu Lin Fa, Lingqi Sutra, and Taixuan Sutra.

These terms must be familiar to everyone. In the long history of ancient Chinese predictions alone, there are so many kinds of them. Could it be that we can use modern science today to conclude that they are all false? ”

After listening to Yu Dong's words, Qin Zhen blinked his eyes and didn't come back to his senses for a long time. He has been completely called stupid by Yudong!! After pondering for a long time, I thought to myself: Is he refuting my point just now?

However, after thinking about it, Qin Zhen suddenly thought of a possibility. So he looked at Yudong suspiciously, and asked tentatively, "You... I don't want to say... Those leaves are in this pagoda, right? ”

It seems that today is indeed a good day. Yu Dong looked at Qin Zhen with appreciation for the second time. Then he pointed to the stupa and said, "Let's not talk about the prophetic arts, and the mysteries of those leaves will not be solved in a while." Come, look at the structure of this stupa. The bottom is semi-circular in the shape of a mound, and a platform is set up at the top. There is a neat square altar on the platform, and the iconic umbrella-shaped stone pillars stand on the altar. ”

As soon as they heard Yu Dong say this, Qin Zhen and Gu Jie couldn't help but ask at the same time, "What does it sign?" ”

Yudong seemed to have known that they would ask, so he immediately replied, "That umbrella pillar marks the royal family from which Shakyamuni was born. This is a typical form of stupa architecture from the Ashoka period. ”

The more Qin Zhen listened, the more confused he became, and he hated that his thinking IQ was not enough! I'm in a hurry when I don't have a clue, and I'm in a hurry when a bunch of clues suddenly appear!! Because it's a mess that can't be opened! He didn't even know which question to ask Yuto first.

Just when Qin Zhen was anxious, Ma Chao on the side suddenly asked, "Dong Shao, isn't the pagoda buried with bones?" According to what you just analyzed... There are no corpses underneath this stupa, but magical leaves written all over the future? ”

Anyway, he caught up with the question, and Qin Zhen simply interjected, "Ah yes, and... That Ashoka is not Chinese! What does it have to do with us? Why is there such a stupa here that imitates their architectural style? ”

In fact, Ma Chao's question is not a problem at all, he just wants Yudong to give a confirmation. However, Qin Zhen's problem is really a problem of ignorance to solve.

Yu Dong thought for a moment and said slowly, "Those prophet leaves are Buddhist things, and Buddhism originated in India. The reason why Buddhism can spread far and wide is entirely due to the great cause of Emperor Ashoka in sending famous monks and monks to other countries to spread Buddhism.

At the beginning, the holy monks and monks sent by Emperor Ashoka all went to the Jedi to preach with the treasures of Buddhism. To Burma in the east, Ceylon in the south, Seleucid and Greek kingdoms in the west, and Kashmir and Central Asia in the north.

In this way, Buddhism not only became a myth in India, but also spread throughout the world. As a result, it has become one of the three major religions in the world, along with Christianity and Islam. Now that I think about it, the Buddhist treasure that the missionary monks who entered China carried was the leaves full of the fate of the country! ”

After hearing what Yudong said, everyone was like an empowerment. When you say that, it seems that there is nothing to understand.

Although it is not known why the precious Buddha treasures were left here, it is certain that these leaves came from India during the time of Emperor Ashoka, so the kings of this city built or rebuilt the stupa according to the description of the high monks, and then sealed the leaves.

To put it bluntly, this is a symbolic meaning. At least no one will forget where this thing came from.

It can be regarded as Qin Zhen's blind cat who guessed correctly when he met a dead mouse, and Yudong really continued, "There is a site in Baragon in today's Bihar, India, which is the center of the world's Buddhist culture, called Nalanda Temple, transliterated as Shi Wuyi.

According to Buddhist legends, that place was the place where Shakyamuni's great disciple Sariputta was born and passed away. And Shakyamuni himself spoke about the Dharma there. So that place was once regarded as a place where the Dharma was boundless.

In the beginning, believers from all over the world traveled thousands of miles to practice the Buddha. Of course, that also includes a few well-known scholars in China.

Although the stupa has a strange style, it bears a similar resemblance to many of the features of Nalanda Temple. If this is the case, then it makes perfect sense to place the treasures of Buddhism in one of the most famous buildings in Buddhism. ”

Qin Zhen nodded noncommittally, sighing in his heart that the belief of human beings was really extremely powerful. In a small country in the Western Regions, he dared to stop the Buddha treasure halfway, not to mention, and also made a big effort to transform a pagoda of other styles!! The intention was probably just to let the leaves find a sense of 'home', and by the way, to show their piety.

Qin Zhen couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly, what else could he say? Perhaps, it is to blame that he is a person who is poor in spirit and lacks faith! So I can't understand what the people in this city are doing at all.

At this time, Gu Jie rubbed his hands, his eyes lit up, and he smiled eagerly, "You see that you have said so much, I don't think it's necessary." Since everyone has doubts about this pagoda, then we should start to dig through the phenomenon and see the essence.

When the time comes, whether the leaf is true or not, whether there is a prophet who said that, or even how it came here, will naturally reveal the truth! How many times have I told you... The burden of the revolution cannot be carried out in practice, but must be carried out in practice......"
