Chapter 55 Incense II
For this reason, Huang Qi specially asked the rich man about the source of this incense, but he didn't know, because this incense was given to him by a friend, and he didn't have much of it himself.
After many twists and turns, Huang Qi finally found out the origin of this incense, and to his surprise, this incense was actually a Buddha incense produced from a temple.
There is a place called Shazhou, which is about ten times the size of the same state capital, in the extreme west of the Great Song Dynasty, where the desert is everywhere, the day is extremely hot, and the night is as cold as winter, and there are often huge sandstorms sweeping by. The harsh environment has made it almost a forbidden place for life.
Even in such a harsh environment, there are still many people who have lived and thrived there for generations, and these people cannot leave the sandbank, because they are all sinners who have been assigned by dynasties, or the descendants of sinners.
The whole sandbar is a land of constant multiplication of sin, without the constraints of law, human nature is extremely distorted, and all kinds of madness are staged every day, where only the wicked can live, and the good ones really do not live for three days.
Anyone who has ever been there calls it hell on earth.
But just as there are oases in deserts, there is also a real place of light in the land of sin on the sandbank, and that is the famous Baiyun Temple.
Baiyun Temple is not an immortal martial sect, and the monks in it don't even know how to do it, but that's it, it's still famous all over the world. Among the Xianwu sects, the abbot of Dafan Temple, the most powerful Buddhist sect, once said that although he was martial arts, he was far inferior to the abbot of Baiyun Temple in terms of Buddhist cultivation.
The abbot of Dafan Temple is one of the few great masters in the world.
It is said that there was once an ascetic monk who traveled to this place of the sandbar and was deeply shocked by the chaos of the entire sandbar, so he gave up the original method of ascetic cultivation and chose to save people.
Crossing the world in this place of sandbar can be imagined. Huang Qi didn't know the specific difficulties, only that Baiyun Temple was burned three times in the early days and rebuilt three times. And the last reconstruction, the masses of the entire sandbar worked together to help the ascetics to build it.
What is the reason for this, Huang Qi doesn't know, the only thing he knows is that after the completion of this time, Baiyun Temple has one more merit forest, and his incense is the output of this merit forest.
Gong Delin was built by the ascetics to thank the people who rebuilt the Baiyun Temple for him at that time, and it is full of a tree called Ryutan. The dragon tan tree is a rare tall tree unique to the sandbar, and it was originally not called the name dragon tan, but it was later called the dragon tan tree by the ascetics, and this name spread.
At that time, there were more than 10,000 people who rebuilt the Baiyun Temple together, and the ascetics planted more than 10,000 dragon trees in the merit forest, and made the names of these people on wooden plaques, and hung them on their respective dragon trees. Since then, the incense in the merit forest has been continuous, and the sound of chanting has been lingering in it all year round.
I don't know when the monks of Baiyun Temple discovered that the dragon tree can be used to make incense, and has a magical effect, so it was later collected by Baiyun Temple every year to make incense, which is used to hold the annual festival and give it to the Shazhou people who participate in the festival.
Although the sandbank has not changed greatly because of the appearance of Baiyun Temple, the puja of Baiyun Temple is always crowded every year, and this day is the most peaceful day on Shazhou, there is no sin and no fighting.
Anshen incense is free, the monks of Baiyun Temple will give it to the first thousand pilgrims, but after the value of Anshen incense was discovered, the pilgrims became their original face when they came out of Baiyun Temple, and fought for their own interests.
After Huang Qi learned about the raw materials of the soothing incense, he also deliberately went to find some dragon squirrel trees to make, but found that as the rumors said, only the dragon stran trees of the merit forest of Baiyun Temple could make that kind of soothing incense.
So for this soothing incense that year, he reached a business deal with the forces on the sandbank. Although the sandbank is chaotic and not bound by law, people are profit-seeking creatures after all, and after Huang Qi smashed a large sum of silver, even the local forces of the sandbank opened up a quiet place for him.
And Huang Qi's reward is that most of the share of Anshen incense is in his pocket every year.
The pleasant fragrance continued to penetrate his mouth and nose, and Huang Qi regained a little mental power when he thought about it.
Why is it useful for ghosts, is it possible that it is because of the material? Huang Qi thought that in the film and television in his previous life, Taoist priests preferred peachwood, would the dragon tan tree also have such an effect? Or is it because this tranquilizing incense is immersed in incense and scriptures all year round, so this peculiar effect will appear.
It's a pity that I don't have an ordinary dragon tree in my hand now, so I can't experiment with it.
walked out of the room and called for Xiao Qian, Xiao Qian floated out of a wall, although her face was still that pale, but she had finally recovered her original shape, and she was no longer the same seeping appearance.
She looked at the room behind Huang Qi with palpitations, and Huang Qi asked, "Did you become like that just now just because you smelled the fragrance?"
Xiao Qian shook her head and said, "Hui Gongzi, in fact, I didn't smell the fragrance. ”
"Just now in Childe's Jade Perry, I clearly saw Childe lighting the incense, and at that moment, a Buddha chant suddenly sounded in my ears. ”
Huang Qi asked, "Buddha singing?"
Xiao Qian nodded and said, "That's right, it's like someone holding a big bell and suddenly ringing in my ear, my whole body seems to be scattered, and my heart is full of boredom and nausea." Then the chanting in my head kept ringing, and every time I heard a word, it was as if I was about to be shaken apart. If it weren't for Childe taking me out in time, I wouldn't have lasted long. ”
Huang Qi then asked, "It's okay to leave the room?"
Xiao Qian said: "That's true, after being brought out by Childe, that voice quickly gradually became smaller, and then disappeared." ”
Huang Qi motioned for Xiao Qian to step back and return to the room by herself.
"Chip, recording now there are no special sound waves. ”
Huang Qi suspects that this is a special kind of sound wave that only ghosts can hear, and will be harmed.
It's a pity that the chip didn't find any special sound waves, so Huang Qi could only put this down temporarily.
Although he didn't find it, it didn't mean that it didn't exist, because the chip detected the outside world based on his body, and if he couldn't touch it himself, the chip wouldn't be able to capture it.
ps: Thank you for the 300 starting coins of the five poisons, and by the way, continue to ask for recommendations....
