"So, what the hell is going on?" I was a little curious.

"Have you heard of the legend of King Gesar?" said Nian suddenly.

"King Gesar, I've heard of it, isn't there an author named Ah Lai who also wrote a novel called "King Gesar"? I said.

In my knowledge of King Gesar, the legend of King Gesar comes from the divine artists of the Kham Tibetan region.

It is said that in the Kham Tibetan area of Tibet, there is a very rare rap artist, this kind of artist was born with no talent, and his own qualifications are mediocre and talentless, many of them are actually illiterate and do not know poetry and writing.

But such a person who could not read big characters and could not understand the five tones often after a serious illness or a dream would suddenly recite poetry and begin to tell some legendary stories about King Gesar that he had never known before.

As a result, this kind of artist who walks in Tibetan areas and sings poems and stories is called a divine artist by the local Tibetan people. Even today, there are still legends of this kind of divine artist singing the praises of King Gesar all over Tibet. According to them, it was King Gesar who told them the previous story in a dream and taught them poetry and chanting.

Legend has it that a long, long time ago, natural and man-made disasters spread all over Tibet, demons and monsters were rampant in the villages, and the people of Li suffered from poison, so the son of the gods, Tuiba Kawa, went down to earth to subdue demons. After the Son of God came into the world, he became a black-haired Tibetan, and when he grew up, he first gradually unified the Tibetan region and became the leader of the Tibetan people, and the Tibetan people called him King Gesar. For the sake of the peace of the people's lives, King Gesar led the people to fight against the demons, and after countless glorious battles, all the demons were defeated and subdued by him, thus benefiting the people of Tibet.

Since then, the miraculous tales of King Gesar have been sung or passed down orally. Nowadays, through the continuous collection and sorting of later generations, the only living epic in human history "The Biography of King Gesar" has finally been achieved, and some scholars call it the "Homeric Epic" of the East.

In the past, it was believed that the Iliad was the longest epic in history, but only now that people have discovered that the Legend of King Gesar is longer than the Iliad, and from the epic, it can be found that King Gesar has countless deeds in his life, not only as a god and hero in the hearts of the Tibetan people, but also his story is widely circulated among the masses of the Mongolian, Tu and Naxi peoples.

After thinking about the deeds of King Gesar, I asked the precepts, "You mean that the recent events have something to do with the legend of King Gesar?"

"Yes. According to Tibetan Buddhist records, King Gesar is also the incarnation of Guru Padmasambhava, who once deliberately descended from the heavenly realm to subdue many demons and monsters that had caused trouble in the Three Realms, so that the Three Realms returned to the Heavenly Realm after being peaceful again. According to legend, the main battlefield between King Gesar and the demons was in the entire Tibetan area centered on the Kham Tibetan region. After a pause, he said, "I also came here to learn that King Gesar had sealed some demons in a secret place in Tibet after subduing them, and handed them over to the care of Tibetan Buddhist disciples. Nearly a thousand years have passed, and the Buddhist disciples in Tibet have gradually forgotten this matter in the long river of history, and not long ago, a tantric master of the Prajna Vajra Monastery in the Tibetan area discovered that the seal of the year had been opened for some reason!" said with a frown.

"Ah, then, you mean to say. I asked tentatively.

"Yes, if nothing else, there may be a demon who escaped from that seal, which is why it caused a series of strange events in Tibet recently. In the past two days, the Tibetan Prajna Vajra Monastery has discovered a very terrifying devil and fought with it, but the devil is very cunning, not only injured several masters, but also let him escape. Therefore, if you are still staying in Tibetan areas, you must be extra careful when you come out at night. Jie Nian said to me seriously.

"I see. As he was talking, his cell phone rang suddenly.

Picking up the phone and talking for a while, the expression on Nian Jie's face gradually became solemn, I saw his brows furrowed, his eyes serious, I noticed his clenched fists, which seemed to tremble slightly.

After hanging up the phone, Jie Nian was silent for a moment, and even showed some murderous aura on his face, I didn't know what happened to make this monk who had always been kind and gentle in character change like this.

"Lin Yu, are you going to Ali's Ma Pan Yong Co Sacred Lake next?"

"Yes, according to the itinerary, this time we will first go to the roof of the roof of the world along the southern route, and the Ali region will see the 'Kailash', the head of the sacred mountain, and the holy lake 'Mapanyongco', one of the three major mountains. I said.

Originally, there are many local sacred mountains in Tibet, since ancient times, there are "40 sacred mountains in the north, 40 sacred mountains in the south", and among these many sacred mountains, "Kailash" is the first of the sacred mountains recognized by the world, the most sacred sacred mountain in the minds of the Tibetan people, and it is also the so-called "Mount Meru" in Tibetan Buddhism.

"Can you take me with you?" asked me.

"Yes, you can. I said to Jienian that as long as I hid the identity of the monks in front of my classmates, Jienian nodded and told me to wait for him in the teahouse for a while, and he went back to pack some things and went on the road with me.

After a while, Jienian came back with a backpack, and looking at this appearance, the Tibetan branch of the Prajna Vajra Monastery should be here in Qamdo.

The car started and we headed back to Lhasa. After receiving the previous phone call, the mind seemed to be a little overwhelmed, and I didn't know what was wrong with this monk, so I tried to reconcile his heavy thoughts.

"Quit Nian, what's wrong with you, since you answered the phone call just now, you can't give up, it doesn't matter, right? I'm still waiting for you to tell me what's new. "While talking, I put in a nostalgic CD by the way, Jacky Cheung's.

"It's okay, I just heard a piece of news, maybe it has something to do with something I encountered a long time ago. "The abstinence seems to have a bit of an unbearable taste of the past.

Seeing that the precept seemed to come back to my senses, I didn't ask any more, the car kept moving forward, Jacky Cheung's singing voice floated in the quiet carriage, these old songs from more than ten years ago are still so good.

"Xueyou's songs are still so good, I think back then, I liked to sing his songs the most. The precept was finally pulled out of the silence by Xueyou's singing.

"Oh, you like Jacky Cheung too. His songs are good. I said.

At this time, Jacky Cheung's "Blessing" was put on, and the precept couldn't help but sing softly along with the tune. I can't see that this fat monk is quite nostalgic, and he sings very emotionally.

"By the way, how long have you been a monk?" I casually asked.

Jie Nian thought for a moment and said, "It should be, yes, it's been more than twelve years, and time flies so fast." ”

I knew that in this day and age, it would not be easy to escape into the empty door and become a monk to study Buddhism, but although I was a little curious about the background of the abstinence, I was too embarrassed to ask him for fear of touching his sadness, so I changed the topic and started chatting with him.

"What are you doing there in Ali, do you also want to see the sacred mountain and the holy lake? I heard that it is really good. I said to the precepts.

"The sacred mountain and the sacred lake are indeed beautiful, I have been there before. I took your car there this time, not for sightseeing, but to touch on the recent events in Tibetan areas and a clue I just heard. In addition, if you encounter any situation on this journey west, maybe I can help you a little, after all, I am more familiar here than you. Jienian looked at the snow-capped mountains in the distance of the car and said to me seriously.

"Has the Prajna Vajra Academy always been so kind to the guests? Then I would like to thank you on behalf of my classmates. Also, according to you, what has happened recently in the vicinity of Mount Kinabalu and the sacred lake?" I asked.

"Yes, something has happened recently near the sacred mountain and the sacred lake, and the seal of King Gesar that was opened is in that area. I just received a call from a Dharma Protector Vajra from the local Prajnavajra Monastery, and it seemed that the matter was still a bit complicated, and there were other suspicious points involved, and the phone said that evil spirits had been found in that area that had only appeared in inland areas before, and they had caught one and interrogated some news. "Nian said to me.

"It seems that there is a good show to watch, I don't know what script can be dug up, after these few evil ghost incidents, I have a feeling that there must be a big action behind this that we don't know yet, perhaps, the other party has already set up a bureau, a big situation that has been carefully prepared for many years. I judged.

"That's how I feel now. To put it this way, eleven years ago I was caught in this unknown situation. The precept seemed to recall what had happened eleven years ago.

"How?" I asked.

"Because the news I heard on the phone today seems to have some connection with the reason why I joined Buddhism eleven years ago, I realized that the things that happened at the beginning were not as simple as I thought earlier. "The precept is inferring some kind of decade-long connection.

"Since you say so, then I really want to know what happened eleven years ago that made you escape into the empty door, in fact, I wanted to ask when I saw you answering the phone and was unstable. I said to the precepts.

Jienian was silent for a while, and finally talked about his past eleven years ago: "In the past, I was originally a swinger brother, idle, oily and funny, because my family is also in business, so I have always spent a lot of money, picked up girls, always cynical, and went my own way. ”

Hearing him say this, I looked at him, and judging from his simple and sincere appearance now, I couldn't think of him as stubborn and slippery as he had been.

"At that time, I had two very iron buddies, one was called 'Viagra' and the other was called 'Monkey', and they both called me 'Fat'. The three of us often pick up girls together, drink and play together, find the little sister of the school to come out and play together, and talk about it together, although life looks colorful and bright, but in fact, my heart is extremely empty, and I don't know what ...... life is for. "The dusty memories of the abstinence have finally reopened after more than a decade.
