Chapter 20: What should be the Buddha's offering?
Three thousand Tang people armed to the teeth, a thousand merchants who are eager to get rich, and their eyes are blue when they are already thirsty, have traveled 10,000 miles from Chang'an to the Western Regions, and if there is not enough profit, everyone, including those who are waiting in Chang'an for them to return with a full load, will also be very disappointed.
A single merchant has no strength to go to distant places to do business, and only this kind of armed group led by Yun Chu can reach places where they can't go to earn the most profits.
In Yun Chu's plan, if Chang'an wants to continue to maintain prosperity, it must have this kind of caravan that can and dare to go long distances.
When the Western Regions got through, they gained great benefits, and they got the benefits that everyone could see, and the people of Guanzhong, who were brave themselves, dared to look up at the whole world, and finally stepped on their footprints all over the world.
Dealing with a strange world must be based on force first, those battle-hardened government soldiers in Guanzhong, as well as retired government soldiers, the most important thing is combat power, of course, the premise is enough benefits.
Yun Chu didn't want these brave people to have nothing to do, and finally the bloody nature they had cultivated with great difficulty was annihilated in the day-to-day labor, and finally disappeared into the land of Guanzhong like the loess.
Therefore, Yun Chu did not ask about the supplies that the army needed along the way, but there was never a shortage of supplies in his team, and even more and more.
This is all the credit of the robbers in the team, although the robbers of the Tang Dynasty are not connected with the robbers of the Western Regions, but these old thieves, they can easily distinguish from the strange people of the Western Regions, those are the tribes that are predators, and those are simple and kind tribes.
Just because the number of simple and kind tribes along the way is too small, this led to Yun Chu's team having no shortage of food and clothing along the way, and there were also a lot of cattle, sheep, camels, and war horses.
Liang Ying has established his prestige among the old thieves, and the command of the soldiers has become more presentable.
In contrast, Xiao Yuhua is a little worse, he still likes a strong individual charge, which makes Zhong Kui, a teacher, very disappointed, Xiao Yuhua grew up in the Gobi, he has become accustomed to the lifestyle on the Gobi, likes to be a lone wolf, and does not like group hunting.
Fang Zheng took over a lot of the gentle work, from arranging the route of the march to arranging the rest points, he was very careful, not only that, he could also pinpoint the hiding places of the bandits who needed to be eliminated on the marching road.
In view of this, the route traveled by the caravan could not be a straight line, but a zigzag.
After leaving more than 500 people in the Golden Buddha Temple and sending 500 people back to Gaochang with a lot of sheepskins, cowhides and other cattle products, the number of the caravan at Yunchu not only did not decrease, but increased to 5,000 people.
This is all the welfare brought by Naha, because of this child, many people in the Western Regions who have heard of Naha's miracles and miraculous deeds, with their families, cattle, sheep, tents, and volunteered to become her slaves, just to be safe under Naha's blessing.
These are wandering shepherds, that is to say, poor people whose tribe has died before, or who have just died.
Fang Zheng didn't want these rabble, and people took the initiative to follow, and they couldn't sell it to make money, and there might be a lot of impure people in the middle.
Since they recognized Naha as their master, it will be Naha's trouble to eat, drink, and Lazar in the future, and the most important thing is that these people are very poor, and there are only a dozen skinny sheep in a family of four or five.
Overall, the disadvantages outweigh the benefits.
Naha likes a lot of people! Especially how many people like to surround her to accompany her, this is the case in Jinchangfang, and it is still like this in the Western Regions, there is no change.
She sees a lot of poor people, or rather, she likes poor people, as long as they are given something to eat, their faces will shine with happiness, and Naha, the most favorite to see is such a face.
Especially those children, after tasting the taste of sugar, the extremely layered smile that bloomed on their faces, Naha never got tired of looking at it.
It was exactly the same as when she first tasted sugar, so she knew how important that happiness was.
I am also willing to let more people taste that feeling.
When Locke
Once again, the camels surrounded the camel city, and Naha looked at the southwest with the most angry gaze with a small face.
It's been three days since the kid had the wrong expression.
Yun Chu came to Naha with a bowl of mixed spicy oil noodles and handed the bowl to Naha, which was Naha's favorite meal.
Naha took the bowl and looked left and right, and a little girl with big eyes brought her a maza.
Naha has always been heroic when eating noodles, and soon finished the boss's bowl of noodles, and then took the noodle soup bowl in Yun Chu's hand, drank a few mouthfuls of noodle soup, and said to Yun Chu, "Sure enough, people will be comfortable when they are full."
Yun Chu smiled and said, "Since you were born, the first sentence you learned to say was your brother, and the second sentence was one word - eat!"
On weekdays, if Yun Chu talked about this, Naha would laugh, but today she didn't, but looked at Yun Chu and said, "At that time, my brother must have been very hard, right?"
Yun Chu smiled, "It's not easy, mainly because my body was too small at that time, and many things were not so convenient to do."
Naha nodded, sighed like an adult, and then said to Yun Chu, "Brother, what kind of person is you?" 100\./degree\./search\./so\.7\./4\./text\./learning\./net\./first\./send
Yun Chu was puzzled and said, "How do you think of asking this, this is not a small topic, if you want to expand it, it can be said for a few days and nights
Moreover, everyone's answer to this question is different, what I said may be different from what Master Xuanzang said, and even different from what everyone thinks.
So, what you think of it is the most important thing."
Naha didn't seem to have to get an answer from Yun Chu, and said to herself, "I gave a little girl from Tibet a piece of candy, and after she ate it, she said that when she grew up again, she would give me her skin
She also said that she had never heard foul language, and she had never spoken foul language, so Zamaru made of her skin could definitely ward off evil spirits and talk to the dead.
She also said that with Zamaru made from her skin, I would definitely become a monk with powerful mana and ability to drive demons.
I looked at her skin, her skin is very beautiful, it is all painted with paint, among which there is a Buddha I know, it is Green Tara, also called Prajna Yue, many people say that I have a relationship with Prajnayue, if I can make great merits, I can be recognized by the monks as the incarnation of Prajnayue
The Green Tara on the girl's back is not big enough now, not like it enough, and when the little girl grows up and has more skin, the portrait of Green Tara will come to life.
The little girl said that at that time, she would be able to peel off her skin and make a Buddha statue, and as long as she kept making offerings, she would be able to enter the world of Green Tara and receive the blessings of Green Tara."
Yun Chu glanced at the little girl who brought Mazha to Naha and said, "Do you like her skin?"
Naha said, "In the future, if anyone says that I have a relationship with Green Tara, I will hit him with a stick, and in the Western Regions Buddhism, if anyone does this kind of skinning thing, I will peel off his skin and use it to do things."
Naha was still a little angry when she said the first few words, but by the time she said the last words, she already had some majesty that was characteristic of superiors.
Yun Chu smiled and said nothing, this is Naha's realization, this is more important than any teachings, the time when the Buddha of Nibra entered Tibet is by no means a matter of the previous decades, but has entered the period of the "Four Zanpu" in Tibet, in which there have even been at least two extermination movements.
I heard that two of the four great zanpos were short-lived, and the cause of death had a lot to do with the Buddha of Nibhara.
Princess Wencheng of the Tang Dynasty entered Tibet and brought the craftsmen to build the Jokhang Temple, and then, after the people began to build houses around the Jokhang Temple, the Luosome had some city appearances.
At this time, Buddhism in Tibet had been circulating in Tibet for a long time.
This method of proselytizing is no different from Naha's process of building the Golden Buddha Temple on the Gobi.
It's just that the elbow-high golden Buddha enshrined in the Jokhang Temple fell from the sky, and the golden Buddha enshrined in the Golden Buddha Temple is carried by a white camel from the snow-capped mountains
out.
All in all, it's all magical.
The Tibetan people believe that they must use the best things to worship a certain god and Buddha, and their best thing is a pure maiden, while Naha thinks that putting some fruit and an incense burner in front of the Buddha is enough to express his sincerity.
From this point of view, Naha's Buddha Kingdom can be called the Bright Buddha Kingdom, and as for the use of some means to preach, Yun Chu took it for granted.
In this era, there is too little knowledge, and there are too many people who need to learn, and they can't learn special knowledge, so Buddhist knowledge is just taken out, so that people have a general view of honor and disgrace.
"Ask me how the Tubo people came all the way from Tubo to the Western Regions" Compared with Naha's worries, Yun Chu cared more about the road connecting the Western Regions and Tubo.
Yun Chu touched the top of Naha's head and left, when Naha has her own firm cognition, at this time, don't say too much nonsense, just let people understand it themselves.
In the final analysis, understanding this kind of thing still depends on the nature of the heart, and those with a good heart will only see the light, and those with a bad heart will only see the boundless darkness.
Yun Chu firmly believes that Naha is a good girl, and her enlightenment will only bring good news to the people of the Western Regions, not disaster......
The caravan was already very close to Qiuzi, as Yun Chu saw the familiar outline of the Great Snow Mountain on the horizon.
At this time, it is the cold winter time, there are no swans in the high sky, no geese, and no bar-headed geese, only some eagles that are bored and run out to chase marmots are still hovering in the sky.
Standing on the back of a camel, Naha rolled her hands into a trumpet shape and shouted loudly to the Gobi Desert in the distance, "Big Fat, we are back"
