Chapter 35: Take You to Daddy
The Potala Palace, located in a hill in the northwest of Lhasa, the capital of Tibet, is a place where countless people yearn for and worship, full of mystery and sacred colors, the reason why it is called the Potala Palace is mainly due to the red mountain where it is located, in the hearts of the local people who believe in Tibetan Buddhism, the red mountain is like the Putuo Mountain where Guanyin Bodhisattva lives, Putuo is called Potala in Tibetan, so there is the Potala Palace, there will be countless travelers, countless monks, countless ascetics come here to worship the Buddha, Just for the clear source in my heart.
The golden dome is the highest place in the Potala Palace, and it is also the highest peak of the Red Mountain, although the Red Mountain is not very high, but its mountain is steep and surrounded by cliffs, it looks like it is also dangerous and abnormal, it is basically the forbidden place of the Potala Palace, the golden dome that travelers and ascetic monks can see is actually the gilded roof of the Spirit Pagoda Hall and the main Buddha hall, for seven, decorated with gilt decorations, there are prayer flags and so on all around, and the real golden dome is actually still on it, the reason why you can't step in, First, here to enshrine the relics left by the Lingtong Lama after the rainbow of the past dynasties, of course, in addition to the Lingtong Lama, there are some eminent monks, and the second is that there is a woman and a child living here.
The path leading to the golden top is rugged and steep, only by leaning on the cliff wall and slowly moving forward can it be safely reached, it can be said that it is dangerous and abnormal, compared to the Bashu plank road, two and a half large novices are carrying a bamboo basket against the rock wall and walking slowly, sweat is constantly falling along their foreheads, and they don't know whether it is cold sweat or because it is too hot and flowing, a pair of eyes as bright as the moon and dark skin of the novice gasped and said: "Senior brother, who is this going up to send food?" Why is there still braised pork and braised chicken? ”
Shami, who was half a head taller than him on the side, slowly raised his left hand on the rock wall and made a silent gesture, and then said slowly: "Don't talk nonsense, it's normal for you to be a little struggling for the first time, and you will be as easy as me after running for half a year!" The swarthy little novice looked at the novice who was half a head taller than him with a look of disbelief, "Alas! Don't believe it, although I can't walk on the ground yet, I've seen people fly over here, like a fairy! ”
The swarthy little novice still looked unconvinced, looked at his senior brother, then at the stones and cliffs under his feet, shook his head and asked, "I don't believe it!" Who do you see? Monks don't speak! ”
"It's the female bodhisattva above!" The little novice at the high point looked at the mountain with a look of adoration, as if he had seen a god at this moment, and he longed or recalled for five minutes before he came back to his senses and said, "Hurry up, there is still a mile to go, and you can see the female Bodhisattva!" ”
The black little novice nodded, and slowly moved forward, but his mouth did not stop, "Senior brother, why do you say that there is a female bodhisattva in the Golden Peak?" In the entire Potala Palace, except for women during the day, it is strictly forbidden for women to enter the inner hall when it gets dark! ”
"I don't know this, I just know that this female Bodhisattva has been here for a long time, maybe she is really a Bodhisattva? It's just that how can a bodhisattva have children! The tall little novice looked meaningfully at the steep mountain wall like an axe.
After the cliff climbed a slope, as if through the space in general, the steep circular mountain wall is a green grassland, even if it is now the early spring, it is still full of spring, there is a crescent-shaped pool in the middle of the grass, the pool is not big, about three zhang long and two zhang wide, the pool water is clear and transparent reflecting the blue sky, there is a thatched house next to the pool, it looks dilapidated but extremely simple, even if the thatch is piled up but does not look messy, there is a five or six-year-old child sitting at the door of the thatched house, with his hair scattered, Wearing a purple novice monk's robe, he stared intently at the red carp swimming around in the pool, as if in them, the child saw happiness and freedom.
The mountain wall behind the thatched hut is not flat, there is a big raised cobblestone in the middle of the mountain wall, the cobblestone is rough and not smooth, the red cobblestone seems to be integrated with the mountain wall, and it seems to be artificially inlaid on the mountain wall, but it is seen that it is tightly seamed with the junction of the mountain wall, and it seems to be the acne that grows on the mountain wall because of the fire.
There was a woman standing under the cobblestone, dressed in a slightly dirty Tibetan woman's dress, looking bloated and funny, as if this woman didn't know how to dress up at all, and she wore clothes just to cover her body, she seemed to sense the arrival of the two little novices, turned her head, and the face of the melon seed flashed with holy white light, a pair of bright water-cut eyes, and long flowing black hair, as if all the bad things had come to naught at this moment.
The woman nodded and did not speak, then pointed to the child next to the pool, the little novice took his junior brother to put the two bamboo baskets next to the child, the child looked at the two little novices innocently, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and the smile was gentle, he looked at the food in the bamboo basket, smacked his lips, seemed to be very hungry, but he did not touch the bamboo basket, as if he was waiting for something.
The little novice put down the bamboo basket and was about to leave, but the woman said, "I won't use it tomorrow!" ”
Xiao Shami looked at the woman in surprise and confusion, and was about to open his mouth to ask, but he heard a rhythmic sound from the mountain wall, and the woman looked at the mountain wall and ignored Xiao Shami's doubts, "You really want to come out?" ”
"Ahem," the old, hoarse voice came from the mountain wall, "it's time to come out, it's been here for eight years!" The hoarse voice was unusually loud, and the two little novices looked at the mountain wall in horror, and the children by the pool shook their bodies and ran to the woman's side and grabbed the woman's weak and boneless right hand.
"Are you going to kill him?" The woman asked with a grim face.
"No, don't kill it, everything has passed after being sealed here by you for eight years, this time it's to save people and save yourself!" The old voice said slowly, and the gravel on the mountain wall continued to slide due to the vibration of the sound.
"Actually, with your ability, I can't seal you at all!"
"Yes, in fact, it was my heart that sealed me, because there was a crack in my heart, because I didn't know whether it was right or wrong to kill him, and since I didn't know what was right or wrong, there was no need to go out!"
Boom, the raised red round stones on the mountain wall slowly emerged from the mountain wall, and they were about to slide down the mountain wall, if they really slipped down, I am afraid that the Potala Palace under the mountain would suffer from an unwarranted disaster, and the little novice was afraid that his body was constantly trembling because of fear, and such an unbelievable thing was beyond their cognition.
Boom, countless gravel slipped from the mountain wall because of the friction of the red round stone, the round stone broke away from the mountain wall but did not roll down as expected, just hung in the air, slowly floated out, and finally stopped two meters outside the mountain wall, about a quarter of an hour, the dust and smoke dissipated, only to see an old man with white hair and white beard knotting each other, a dark face, wearing a rag robe that seemed to turn into powder when the wind blows, his right hand was held high, and the raised right hand was holding the red round stone, A pair of eyes as bright as the moon on his dark face scanned the people present, and finally landed on the woman and the child, "This is his child?" ”
The woman nodded, bent down and picked the child up.
"It's so big, it seems that I was wrong back then, I shouldn't have stopped you, let alone broken you up!" The old man opened his mouth and said, even if he was so old, not a single tooth in his mouth had fallen out, but only a long retreat, which was slightly black and yellow.
"I don't blame you, you're here to protect me! Even if we are not together now, I can feel his heart, and I will leave here to find him after today! The woman whispered, without the slightest expression on her face, but when she mentioned 'him', her eyes shone brighter.
"Hahaha, follow fate, follow fate, it turns out that you told me back then, everything is like a play, extroverted as well, inner calm, everything is like a dream bubble, like dew and electricity, it should be viewed as such, it turns out that you saw it so transparently back then!" The old man laughed and laughed, the laughter was so loud that the mountain wall trembled, the pool was surging, and the rumbling bell and the buzzing sound of the Dharma prayer wheel were ringing at the bottom of the mountain, and it seemed that the bronze bell and prayer wheel of the entire Potala Palace rang at this moment, and at the same time, the sound of chanting the Tibetan scriptures also came from the Potala Palace, and only the sound of it was not heard.
The old man's left hand folded in front of his chest and said loudly: "Amitabha! The world is impermanent, it's me who is obsessed, the past grievances are gone with the wind, I should go! As soon as he finished speaking, he held the crimson boulder in his right hand and threw it into the sky, then bent his knees, and with a loud shout, his body jumped directly onto the giant stone and turned into a red meteor across the sky.
On this day, countless people saw a red fire meteor passing through the sky, but no one knew where it came from, or flew there, and even the news reported it, but in the end it was not over, and then someone sent a photo of a gray-haired old man standing on the meteor to the Internet, and the Internet exploded and began to discuss wildly, but in the end it ended with this picture being P's hastily......
In front of the stone wall, the woman looked at the old man who flew away and didn't speak for a long time, and waited until the child asked crisply, "Mom, who is that dirty old man?" His eyes were clear, not the slightest frightened, not the slightest surprise.
The woman lowered her head and looked at the child in her arms and said softly, "He is your grandfather and the fifteenth living Buddha!" ”
"Grandpa?" It seemed that this word was very strange to him, and it seemed that this person was also strange to him, and he suddenly asked with his eyes rolling: "If there is a grandfather, is there a father, mother, where is the father?" ”
The woman looked at the child in surprise, unable to figure out how his little head could associate it with his grandfather and father, she stroked the child's head and said, "Mother, I'll take you to find Daddy, but before we leave, we have to go to Mount Kailash to find something!" ”
