Chapter 123: Ten Phase Organs
Qin Zhen and the others were all speechless, and they all looked at Yebei dumbfounded. A look of disbelief, even more unacceptable. They could not imagine that so-called religious beliefs could be so bloody and terrifying...... Isn't that more cruel than cannibalism?
Qin Zhen subconsciously turned his head and glanced at Lao Gu, well, even if this product lives here, he doesn't have to worry too much about being made into a sacrifice. Because according to what Yebei said, there may be osteoporosis, iron deficiency and calcium deficiency, high cholesterol, and the spread of 25 cells too fast...... Such should not be qualified. So don't look at the old Gu people, but you don't have to worry about this terrible faith sacrifice.
Although Qin Zhen and the others were all stunned by Yebei's words, Yebei seemed to be extremely unimpressed. He seemed to look at these things as normal and natural. Maybe it's because he's the one who guards the southwest, so he has a deep understanding of remote and primitive folk customs, so he naturally won't make a fuss like Qin Zhen and them.
Looking at Qin Zhen and their deeply shocked appearance, Yebei smiled faintly and said, "I have already told you that the meaning of primitive religion is completely different from what you understand. Don't use the Buddhism in your mind to understand all the different schools of Buddhism. Again, the root of Tibetan Buddhism must start with Bon. It is no exaggeration to say that if you want to understand Tibetan civilization, you must first understand Zhangzhung civilization; And to study Tibetan Buddhism, you must first study Bon. The Zhangzhung civilization is also the source of Bon, so all qiΔ originated in the Gangdis Mountains...... When you can fully understand this period of history, you may get closer to the truth......"
Yebei said this meaningfully. Qin Zhen listened to every sentence in his heart. A coincidence about Mount Gangdis will not be just a coincidence. After learning so much, Qin Zhen even began to faintly feel ...... Shangri-La must be in the Gangdis Mountains, and it can only be in the Gangdis Mountains. This legendary sacred realm created by Tibetan Buddhism can only exist in the place where the origin of Tibetan Buddhism began.
Unconsciously, under Yebei's intentional or unintentional reminders, Qin Zhen felt that he seemed to be more and more thorough about this mysterious and inexplicable incident. When I look at those human bone bowls and the like, I still feel uncomfortable, but I don't feel as shocking as before. Yebei is not wrong. It's just a different kind of folk customs.
Why is it okay to place animals such as cows, sheep, and pigs on the altar? Why do humans feel that such sacrifices are "normal" and taken for granted? The Buddha said that all beings are equal. It's all the same. Therefore, there will be times when people are placed on the altar. Thinking about it this way, it is very natural.
And Qin Zhen also understood. Only when the heart is 100% calm, clear, and free from any prejudice and emotion. to have a chance to see the truth.
Yebei glanced at Qin Zhen's expression lightly. smiled faintly. Yebei knew that Qin Zhen was a person who could point out, and he could easily understand the nature and laws in it. Maybe it's a little hard to get him to fully accept and approve of it. But there is no problem in letting him understand the laws of nature.
And Qin Zhen was also in good spirits at this moment, he rubbed his chest, which was still aching, and pointed to the altars energetically and analyzed: "Brothers, you look at this statue and characters, it seems that there is a certain pattern. Although it is said that it has lost its luster over time, if you look closely, you can still see that it is a colored thing. β
Lao Gu and Jiang Qi followed Qin Zhen, nodding their heads again and again while watching, whether they understood it or not, they were still very happy to see Qin Zhen look like this.
But Yebei stood still and didn't move, he just looked at Qin Zhen lightly and smiled. Listening to Qin Zhen's analysis of the Dao, he nodded slightly from time to time.
If Yebei had questioned Qin Zhen and how it was possible for them to be on the same path as Yudong before, then he seemed to have begun to understand now.
Yudong and Yebei seem to have been set into a fixed pattern since they were born. They have to have a certain character, they have to be a certain person, they have to be some kind of ideology that cannot be changed...... But Qin Zhen is not, they live by themselves, and they can change according to their own perceptions.
In addition, they are all people who value love and righteousness, which makes them have a kind of momentum of 'brothers working together, and their profits are gold'. It's obviously very ordinary, but it has a kind of power that is as heavy as Mount Tai.
Yebei didn't interject Qin Zhen's analysis, he listened silently from beginning to end, as if he was observing the students he personally instructed.
I saw Qin Zhen pointing to the few characters and gods with this color, and then looked at the prayer wheels below and said, "These prayer wheels will definitely not be placed here for decoration for no reason!" I think so...... This could be something like a combination lock. The text on the prayer cylinder should correspond to the pattern and text on it, and after all the correspondence is completed, maybe the thing in the middle of the ground will rise by itself...... Huh? Night Boss, come and see, is this the ten phases you said before?! β
Qin Zhen was a little excited, he was very surprised by this discovery of his own! Yebei has just taught them, and this is going to come in handy!
Yebei nodded with satisfaction and said, "Yes, this is the pattern of ten phases of freedom is disassembled." You can think that the prayer wheel is really not simple, and this mechanism is up to you to unlock. As I said, the Ten Phases of Freedom are the supreme doctrinal signs, and if there is an organ of religion here, it must be more or less related to it. Either it's a six-character mantra, an eight-character mantra, in short, as long as you can keep these in mind, there won't be much trouble cracking the tantric mechanism. β
Receiving Yebei's affirmation, Qin Zhen was very happy. Even he didn't have the slightest doubt, what was the reason why Yebei did this? Is it just to make them self-reliant?
As soon as Lao Gu and Jiang Qi heard that Qin Zhen had found a way to unlock the mechanism, they also hurried over. Lao Gu slapped Qin Zhen lightly and said, "Eh, you kid looks good!" You're really short and long! Unraveling the trap so quickly! β
Qin Zhen was slapped by Lao Gu and coughed vigorously, he pushed Lao Gu and scolded: "Uncle, you are so excited, you almost didn't shoot Lou for me!" Stop talking so much nonsense, hurry up and help get to work! Remember those ten characters and colors that Yebei said? All of them are on ......."
"I don't remember......" Before Qin Zhen finished speaking, Lao Gu replied sneeringly.
Qin Zhen looked at him in a daze, and only after a while did he say, "You are sincere...... You're not afraid of being killed, are you? β
Lao Gu not only didn't take it seriously, but also smiled embarrassedly and said, "Hey, this honesty is my essence." As you know, I am full of all kinds of fine traditional moral spirits...... It's not surprising that you've stumbled upon one or the other......"
Qin Zhen looked at Lao Gu's appearance of not being ashamed, but proud, and really felt that he had been defeated by him. He decided to shut up and stop talking, otherwise he was worried that Lao Gu would pull the IQ and shameless Cheng DΓΉ to the same level as him.
Jiang Qi never talks much, and he is also a person with brains. As soon as he heard Qin Zhen finish speaking, he immediately set off and walked towards the first prayer wheel on the left.
Qin Zhen smiled with relief, and thought to himself: Hey, it's normal to have a brother anyway. Otherwise, it would be so bad for Yebei to know that he had been talking so hard for so long that day, and no one remembered it......
Yebei was very relieved to hand over the matter of opening the mechanism to Qin Zhen and the three of them, while he himself stood at the place with the lotus pattern in the middle, squatting down as if he was observing something.
Anyway, like Yebei and Yudong, Qin Zhen couldn't understand their behavior, so he simply stopped looking at them, and directly made a look at Jiang Qi, and let him start to do it.
Three patterns, seven Sanskrit. One no more, one no less, is carved right on the prayer wheel and the rock wall, and they must map the correct symbols and Sanskrit to the correct colors of the gods and symbols in order to be considered successful.
Qin Zhen finally understood why Yebei said that he must have the ability to recognize these characters at a glance. If Qin Zhen hadn't seen that strange color just now, he might not have been able to see that this was what the Ten Phases looked like after they were taken apart.
In fact, knowing the mystery, it is not difficult to unlock the mechanism. However, Qin Zhen and Jiang Qi were both nervous, as if they were two bomb defusers, carefully turning the warp cylinder, repeatedly confirming whether the correspondence was correct.
This is not only because they are extremely cautious about this mechanism, but also because of the mottled Sanskrit, the colors are not so vivid for a long time. They have to work hard to identify it so that it doesn't have irreversible consequences if it is opened incorrectly.
Although Lao Gu didn't make a move, he was also anxious to compete in the back. From time to time, he still nagged: "Eh, I see it clearly!" Eh, that's not right...... Hey, turn a little more to the right......"
In the end, Qin Zhen finally couldn't bear to stop his hand, wiped his sweat and said angrily: "You shut up for me!" Originally, it wasn't messy, but let you babble about it, but now I suddenly feel that I can't be too sure about it...... You stay on the sidelines! You are not allowed to speak again until the mechanism is opened. β
Although Lao Gu was aggrieved, he was not embarrassed to pout Qin Zhen again. Who didn't help themselves in this mission......
Yebei heard their quarrel, so he stood up and looked up to "check" Qin Zhen's work. After reading them all, he said, "Very good, nothing wrong, it's all right." (To be continued......)
