Manasarovar got its name from a religious war that took place on the shore of this lake in the 11th century. In Tibetan, "Manasarovar" means undefeated and invincible. It means "invincible lake" in Tibetan.
After the Kagyu sect of Tibetan Buddhism gradually won the battle with the Bon religion, the "Ma Chui Cuo" that had been used for many centuries was renamed "Manasarovar Lake", which means "the everlasting Jasper Lake".
There were many Buddhist temples built along the lake in history, and now there are 8 of them. With so many temples scattered around, you can imagine how many people come here for pilgrimage.
Here, many devout herdsmen will throw their gold jewelry into Manasarovar.
This lake has been famous since the 11th century, and now more than a thousand years have passed. During these more than a thousand years, it is impossible to say how many people and how much gold were thrown into it.
Even now, Manasarovar's placer gold mine is very famous, so Han Kongque said that Manasarovar Holy Lake is a treasure, which is really good.
Perhaps seeing the golden light in Han Peacock's eyes, Liu Xu chuckled and said, "You don't think this is really a golden lake, do you?"
Han Kongque shook his head and said with a smile: "I don't think so. Do you think I'm that superficial?"
Liuxu smiled and said, "Looking at you, I thought you thought this was Lake Guadavida!"
Han Peacock finally couldn't help but roll his eyes at Catkin. Lake Guadavida is the legendary golden lake. This lake is in Colombia. In the 17th century, a nephew of the last king of the Indian tribe described it to people.
A traditional coronation ceremony on the banks of the Golden Lake.
At that time, the heir to the throne was coated with gold powder, and then took a dip in the lake. After washing off the powder, his subjects presented gold and gems one after another. These treasures were piled up at his feet like a hill. Then the new king took all the
Treasures of gold and silver were thrown into the lake as an offering to the sun god.
Since the 16th century, people have been salvaging the Lake of Gold. Until 1974, the Colombian government was worried that the treasures in the lake would fall into the hands of others. It dispatched the army to protect the Lake of Gold. From then on, no one can approach this place.
.
"It's a pity that this place is not much better than the Indians, and it is not as good as other Indians. If it can really be compared to the Indians, maybe the gold in the lake will not be left." As he said, Han Peacock pointed not far away.
A group of people.
Liuxu looked over. Several people who looked like foreign tourists were throwing things into the lake with great wealth. Both Han Peacock and Liuxu had good eyesight. Both of them could see clearly. One of them was a fat man with a strong build.
, and still inside is a gold bracelet.
And a young man next to him directly threw the dog chain around his neck in. The chain was very thick, and he didn’t know how his neck could bear it. Of course, it might be because it was too heavy, so he
He threw it into the lake without mercy.
A gold bracelet costs forty or fifty grams. At the current price of gold, the value of such a bracelet is only ten thousand or twenty thousand yuan. Adding the gold chain, this is forty or fifty thousand yuan. If there is one every day
With a few such high-rollers, this place has become a veritable golden lake.
"I wonder how much gold is left here." LiuXu sighed softly.
"Definitely not as many as in Lake Guadavida." Han Peacock shook his head regretfully.
It is said that there are tens of thousands of tons of gold and gems at the bottom of Colombia's Guadavida Lake. Therefore, since the Spanish conquest of the Inca Empire in the 16th century, the search and salvage of gold and gems has been uninterrupted. Finally, people determined that today's Colombia
The Sacred Lake of Guarda Vida is the legendary Lake of Gold.
This place is like a Mayan pyramid, and it is still a sacred place for the Chibcha-Musca Indians to worship. Legend has it that on the shore of the lake, you can feel an unusual and mysterious atmosphere, and there is a kind of Indian treasure.
The feeling of being at your fingertips.
There is still a huge secret hidden in that lake. It is said that there are 50 million gold objects at the bottom of the lake. It is said that every newly crowned king goes to the shores of Lake Guadavida to hold a coronation ceremony in order to please the devil.
You have to give it gifts to your own God and Lord.
On the day of the coronation ceremony, the subjects tied a raft with reeds and decorated it beautifully. Four braziers were placed on it. Groups of Indians wearing feathers, crowns and earrings gathered on the shore.
Everyone was holding torches.
When the brazier on the raft began to smoke and exude fragrance, the torches on the shore burned even brighter. At this time, the new king was stripped naked, cigarette butts were smeared on his body, and gold powder was sprinkled from head to toe.
He was carried onto the raft and a large pile of sacrifices was piled at his feet.
Following the new king to the raft were four of his courtiers. They also stripped naked and wore only feathers, gold crowns, and bracelets. Each of them had gifts.
As soon as the raft left the shore, the crowd on the shore played various musical instruments, sang and shouted loudly. Only when the raft reached the middle of the lake did everyone become quiet.
The "gilded man" was illuminated by the rising sun, praying and throwing gifts into the lake.
After the flag that had been flying throughout the ceremony came down, the four people on the raft jumped into the water and swam to the shore.
At this time, people's shouts and music resounded on the shore, and everyone danced and drank. Only in this way was the power of the new king officially recognized.
Therefore, the Indian kingdom that has been passed down for thousands of years has directly created a golden lake. However, this holy guardian in Tibetan area cannot reach that level of madness. However, in just a short time, Han Peacock saw hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Throwed into the lake, it is really impossible to say how many gold jewelry have been silent in the lake for so many years.
"Faith is really crazy sometimes." Liu Xu said.
Han Kongque said: "It's better than eating, drinking, whoring and gambling. I'm still here. I don't know who got the advantage in the end."
It was already noon, and the weather had become very hot, so on one side, people were already bathing in the water of the Holy Lake. Among these people, many wanted to be lucky and wanted to fish up a piece of water in the lake.
Something, whether it is gold, stones or feathers, of course, if it is gold jewelry, that would be even better.
Liu Xu looked at Han Peacock and said with a smile: "It must be cheaper for people like you."
Han Kongque also smiled: "It should be said that it is cheaper for people like us."
"I won't join in with you, why do you need so much money? Even if this is really a golden lake, how much can we use?" Liu Catkin said.
Han Kongque said: "It sounds like I am greedy. You have to know that if I want it, I can still get thousands of tons of gold."
"It's something you have to work hard to get. The feeling of getting a treasure without working is definitely different. I think you enjoy this feeling, right?" Liu Xu said.
Han Kongque thought for a moment and said: "It's really like this. In fact, fishing out hundreds of kilograms of gold only costs hundreds of millions of yuan, but the feeling of getting it for nothing is really different."
"Then go down and pick some up!" Liu Xu said.
Han Kongque said: "Of course, but the gold here is not so easy to pick up."
"What? The environment down there is very complicated? If that's the case, wouldn't it be possible to leave more gold? You should be happy." Liu Catkin said.
Han Peacock's current perception range exceeds 400 meters. At close range, Han Peacock cannot detect any gold jewelry at all. This is understandable because few people throw jewelry close by.
In the distance, there is the deep water area in the Holy Lake. The underwater terrain there is really complex. In addition to the silt at the bottom of the lake, the gold thrown into the lake will directly enter the silt. Without special means,
It's really not easy to fish it out.
Of course, if there is enough time and enough equipment, the gold jewelry will be cleaned no matter how complicated the environment below is, but this is absolutely impossible.
You must know that this is a holy lake. There are too many devout herdsmen who come here for pilgrimage, and most of them are these people who throw gold into it. If you blatantly steal the treasures that others offer to the gods, are you not seeking death?
"Let's eat first! It's okay to catch a few small items. If you want to catch them all, I'm afraid it won't be easy." Han Peacock glanced around for a few times and then said slowly.
Liu Xu looked around in confusion: "Is there any of your colleagues?"
The Korean peacock hugged the catkins and walked like a tent in the distance. In Tibetan areas, few people eat fish, so their tents are set up farther away.
As they walked, Han Peacock whispered: "Look at the young herdsmen over there, do they look suspicious?"
"They are so mean-spirited? Those people don't have good intentions either?" Liu Xu didn't see why those people were so mean-looking, but she guessed what Han Peacock meant.
Han Peacock chuckled and said: "Those boys, I'm afraid they stepped on the spot, just like the few people just now, they must have recorded the location of the jewelry they threw. If I guessed correctly, in the dead of night, they
I will go into the water to salvage.”
"I'm afraid it's not easy, right? The lake water here is very cold at night." Liu Xu said.
Han Kongque said: "For money, why are you afraid of being cooler? Fortunately, there are many people here. If it weren't for this, no matter how much gold there was in the lake, they would have scooped it up long ago. Then they are still waiting for us to come?"
"It's you, but they are really smart. They remember the place during the day and go into the water to fish it out at night. If the coordinates are calibrated, it will be easier." Liu Catkin said.
Han Kongque thought about it and realized that it was really like this: "These people must be professionals. Maybe they are what you think. As long as they go into the water often, they must be familiar with the underwater environment. If they saw those people throwing gold jewelry and falling
It’s really not difficult to calibrate the exact coordinates of the location.”
"In this way, you can wake up from your dream of scooping up a lot of gold." Liu Xu said with a smile. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
