I thought Jianba was going to attack, so I instinctively stepped back, but I met the fat man's hand. He pressed my shoulder and told me not to be afraid. Although the others didn't know what Jianba wanted to do, they didn't react as big as me.
If the fat man hadn't stopped me, I would have been thrown into my grandma's house.
Qiangba shook his arms and took out the parchment bag, handed it to the King of Hell, and smiled flatteringly: "Boss, I didn't know what was agreed..."
The King of Hell did not say anything. He took the parchment bag from Qiangba's hand and revealed a small corner. The fat man tiptoed towards that corner. I only saw what the black pattern in the corner was, but how could a peeper know what it was?
something.
"Destiny, do you know what that is?" The fat man poked me gently and asked in a low voice.
"I can't see clearly." I couldn't see this thing clearly at first, but that corner slowly appeared in my mind, and gradually its surroundings began to be perfected, and finally it appeared completely in my eyes, "Fat man, that corner
It’s a thangka, a black thangka.”
Telling Fatty is not because I like Dese very much, but Fatty tells me a lot of things on weekdays, so I think he reciprocates.
"What is a black thangka?" The fat man was stunned. Most people have heard of thangka, but this black thangka is a kind of thing that is not well known.
I don't have the fat man's hobby of showing off, and if I try to show off with this damn fat man, if he tries to catch me, I'll have to strain my muscles and bones for another hundred days.
"You should know about Thangka, right?" I was really afraid that Fatty, an illiterate man, wouldn't know it, but most people know this, especially this damn Fatty who understands Tibetan.
The fat man pouted and said he didn't know.
Okay, I take back what I just said, but how did you, a fat guy like you, learn Tibetan?
I cleared my throat and found that Palm Yan was also curiously leaning against me, pretending to be a gentleman and said: "Thangka is also called Tangga or Thangka. It is a religious scroll painting framed with colored satin and hung for worship. Tangka
Ka is a characteristic painting form in Tibetan culture. The content of the design is nothing more than Tibetan history, politics, culture and social life, etc. According to the material of Thangka, Thangka can also be divided into Guotang and Zhitang.
.”
When the fat man heard this, he slapped his thigh: "Grandma, it turns out this is a thangka. I know it."
I already felt that the black lines on my face were enough to make noodles for this damn fat man, and I expressed my dissatisfaction: "I said, fat man, this is immoral. If you know why you didn't tell me, you're wasting my saliva."
The fat man looked like he was aggrieved to his little daughter-in-law, and muttered: "It's all in vain. When I took it out, I heard people say it was something from the Tang Dynasty. I thought it was something from the Tang Dynasty. Damn it, old man
I almost got shot for this."
Are you just fooling around? Emotional fat man, you saw this thing in someone’s tomb, you dug up all their ancestral graves, you still want them to treat you to peanuts?
"Xuanyuan, don't listen to this fat man's nonsense, tell me what a black thangka is." Zhang Shangyan, a girl who has always been lively, has an indescribable love for those unknown mysteries.
"This black thangka uses black as the base, outlines it with pure gold, and embellishes it with a small amount of color or symbolic halo to reveal the main structure of the characters or scenery. The already light and dark shadows feel meaningful even to the eyes of an outsider.
Deep and mysterious
Deep, this is the painting method that combines Tibetan Buddhism and painted thangka - black thangka, which in Tibetan should be 'that tang'." At this point, I saw the fat man wanting to talk and glared at him.
Same, let the fat man stop showing off the process of taking a gun.
The fat man stuck out his tongue and wanted to continue listening, but obediently did not interrupt again.
Seeing that the fat man stopped being verbose, I continued: "If the art of thangka brings together all the civilizations in Tibetan areas, then the black thangka contains all the teachings and thoughts of Tibetan Buddhism, and there are elements of Tibetan Buddhism in it."
Great wisdom embodies the wisdom of countless eminent monks and folk craftsmen. It is also the dark Tang Dynasty
Just like his name, Ka has a black body throughout his body. As for the Tibetan people's preference for black, it originates from the Bon belief developed from the ancient primitive religion. Bon religion is commonly known as "Black Religion" because Bon believers like to
He is famous for having long hair and wearing black clothes. Judging from his teachings and laws, this kind of
The custom of advocating black has a very long history, and is reflected in the concept of black and white dualism in the Bon creation theory and the profound philosophy it symbolizes. Later, Tibetan Buddhism Tantra became popular in Tibet, absorbing a large number of local primitive religions, such as Bon
doctrinal content, and various Tibetan Buddhist arts that are compatible with it
The art form came into being. Black itself has visual aesthetic qualities and color symbolic connotations such as ferocity, violence, majesty, darkness, and mystery. Therefore, black thangka is extremely suitable for expressing the unpredictable artistic conception of tantric gods. Using black as the base, it becomes
This shows the qualitative nature of black thangka’s expression.”
When I said this, I glanced at the fat man vaguely. It was he who told me that there were Bon ascetics in the team, but at this time, the fat man pretended to be stupid and was stunned.
Qiangba has been called to a corner by the King of Hell and the boss, and several people are exchanging something. We don't have much reason to ask people for money to find out, so the three of us are still discussing this black thangka.
"Xuanyuan, why do you think Qiangba gave the King of Hell a black thangka?" Zhang Shangyan frowned slightly, seeming to be surprised by Qiangba's behavior.
The fat man shrugged his shoulders and said, "I really don't know about this, but I estimate that this thing is very valuable, and maybe it can be exchanged for a lot of money."
"Money money
Money, you, a fat man, know money. How much money do you think can buy the King of Hell for a trip to the Gate of Hell?" Zhang Shangyan is not as outspoken as the fat man. She has already guessed it, but she still waits for me to express her thoughts.
"I even said I don't know anymore. I'm asking fate." The fat man looked rude towards Palm Swallow and threw this mess to me.
"The fat man is not wrong, this thing is very valuable." I said this to save the fat man, but when the fat man saw me talking for him, I felt a little regretful, "But the value of this thing is absolutely
If it’s not about money, have you all forgotten the purpose of our coming here?”
"Demon Lord?" Fatty and Zhangshang Yan both shouted softly, and quickly covered their mouths again.
"Yes, since the Black Thangka has a great connection with Bon Religion, it is related to the matter of Demon King." I nodded my head and began to think about the origin of Bon Religion.
"Bon religion is just a witchcraft religion in Tibetan areas. What does it have to do with the devil?" asked the fat man. This fat man knew some things very clearly, but he was confused about other things.
"You two should still remember King Gesar, right?" I asked, Zhang Shangyan and Fatty both nodded their heads, "This King Gesar is said to be the incarnation of Tui Bagawa, the Son of God. There is a saying that it is the legend of Bon Religion.
Pushing Bagawa from his body became glorious in the hands of King Gesar. That is to say, the Son of God gave life to Bon Religion, and King Gesar gave Bon Religion a future. As for the many unknown secrets of Bon Religion, they point to our destination today.
, the Tomb of the Demon King.”
Palm Yan was a little scared and asked in a low voice: "Does the Demon Lord really exist? Then are we really just fighting backwards when we go there?"
The fat man took a puff of cigarette, slowly blew out the smoke ring, and shook his head: "I don't know, there are some things that we can't understand. Once we set foot on this road, we will never return."
Even the fat man said this. I felt that this trip might be something I would remember for the rest of my life. Suddenly, the blood in my bones that was passionate about adventure began to boil.
Just when I was distracted, Zhang Shangyan had already adjusted his emotions, looked at the three people in the distance and slowly asked: "I think Qiangba has known the King of Hell for a long time, and he is also a participant in this layout."
I took the fat man's cigarette and smiled: "Those who say they have principles are just standing in front of a stack of bills. If a stack of bills taller than him hits his face, maybe he will kneel down and lick it.
People's toes. These days, I dare not say that there are not very principled people, but there are too few. Everyone has his own price, and it depends on whether you can afford it or not."
