The appearance of Zhao Yuecheng also made Granny Lantuya smile a lot more.
This old mother-in-law also had many twists and turns in her life.
When I was young, my son was just one month old and my husband died of illness.
Later, with a not-so-good body, I managed to raise my son by myself, and even watched my son happily take a wife.
Later, a year later, my grandson was born.

However, when her grandson was three years old, Granny Lantuya's son and daughter-in-law died in an accident.
The only remaining grandson died of illness when he was only six years old.
Since then, Granny Lantuya seemed to have aged instantly.
If not, and with Li Jiabin's company, maybe... Granny Lantuya would have lost the motivation to live long ago.
And now, this motivation has another one, Deji (Zhao Yuecheng).
For Granny Lantuya, Deji (Zhao Yuecheng) is like her grandson.
Even though, it is not easy to feed a child on this ranch.
But Granny Lantuya did not hesitate to take out her savings in exchange for milk powder and nutritional supplements for infants and young children. She carefully cared for Deji (Zhao Yuecheng) to grow up healthily.
When Li Jiabin saw this, he was also happy for the old woman.
Time also flew by quickly as the three of them seemed to be enjoying themselves happily.
Tadu@ Unknowingly, Deji (Zhao Yuecheng) has grown to be five years old.
Deji is very smart, and he usually learns some fishing and hunting skills from Li Jiabin.
Or maybe he was just helping Granny Lantuya herd the cows and sheep, and getting along with the Tibetan Mastiff Wuya happily.
At night, Li Jiabin would take Deji to his tent to rest.
On the one hand, it is because he needs to be taught to read and write.
On the other hand, it is also because Granny Lantuya is getting older and her sleep is getting lighter and lighter.
If Deji still sleeps with her mother-in-law, it will inevitably be a little inconvenient.
…
And on this day, the annual Sagadawa Festival has arrived.
While packing up, Li Jiabin said: "Deji, you go to the market with me today."

"Bring the animal skins prepared by your mother-in-law, and then exchange some money for your mother-in-law to take some supplements to nourish her body."
"Okay!" Five-year-old Deji looked like a little adult with a sunny and handsome smile.
On the side, Grandma Lantuya couldn't help but smile and said: "You don't have to spend any money on me, just keep the money for the animal skins."
"In the future, Xiao Deji will marry a wife and have children. Which of these does not cost money..."
Li Jiabin smiled: "Mother-in-law, you don't have to worry, this child has his own opinions."
"Moreover, life is getting better and better now. My mother-in-law doesn't have to save as much as she did back then."
With that said, Li Jiabin took out the old yak again.
"jingle!"
"jingle!"
Accompanied by the pleasant sound of wind chimes, Li Jiabin rode on the back of the old yak.

Deji smiled and sat in front of Li Jiabin, waving towards Granny Lantuya: "Grandma, let's go."
Granny Lantuya smiled kindly and waved her hand.
Two people and one cow, when passing by other pastures, people also stopped one after another:
"Tashi Delek!"
"Tashi Delek!"
Li Jiabin responded one by one.
Deji also followed suit, shook his head and asked crisply:
"Uncle, why do you have to teach me the Chinese language every night?"
"This grassland is so beautiful, I probably will never leave here in my life."
Li Jiabin smiled dumbly and patted Deji on the head lovingly: "You kid..."

"Back then, your grandma and I picked you up and realized that you didn't seem to be of Tibetan blood, so we gave you a Han name."
"Although you have lived a good life here these years."
"But neither your grandma nor I can stay with you forever."
"The outside world is also very good. Since you are not of Tibetan blood, if the time comes, you can go out for a walk."
"Herding cattle and sheep in the pasture is a way of life."
"But life outside might be more suitable for you."
"And..." Li Jiabin murmured: "I always have a feeling that one day, you will leave on your own."
Deji seemed to hear the vicissitudes of life in Li Jiabin's words, and couldn't help scratching his head: "Speak of this, uncle."
"Lately at night, I keep hearing a voice."
"Oh?" Li Jiabin asked with a smile, "What is that sound?"
The original text comes from Yuta&Read Novel~&
Deji pouted and couldn't help but said, "Well... I can't tell if I'm dreaming."
"Anyway, even in the middle of the night, there is always a voice telling me... that he is in the box and asking me to help open the box."
"Say...you want me to take him out of here."
As soon as he finished speaking, the smart Deji clearly felt that Li Jiabin's body was a little stiff.
He raised his head, stared at Li Jiabin with his big eyes and said, "Uncle, what's wrong? Is there really something in that box?"
Li Jiabin realized his gaffe and suddenly smiled: "What else?"
Deji blinked: "I said, the key to the box is not with me, but in your hands, uncle."
After hearing this, Li Jiabin secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "Deji, listen to me!"
"No matter what happens, you must not open that box!"
"Do you know?"
Although Deji was confused, he nodded obediently.
…
Soon, the two of them arrived in front of the Jokhang Temple.
Looking at the magnificent temple in front of him, Deji couldn't help but let out a sigh of amazement.
"Deji, this is your first time here."
"This is one of the most famous temples in Lhasa, the Jokhang Temple."
"It was built by Songtsen Gampo back then."
Deji looked at Li Jiabin: "But... I have never seen my uncle chanting and worshiping Buddha."
Li Jiabin smiled: "Well, it is indeed deserted on weekdays."
"Let's go in."

With that said, after tying the old yak to a wooden stake on the side, Li Jiabin took Deji directly to the goddess Bandanlam on the third floor.
"Deji, this is the goddess Bandanlam whom my uncle has always worshiped, and she is also the wrathful aspect of the auspicious heavenly mother."
With that said, Li Jiabin took out some money and exchanged it for two butter lamps.
"Come and learn from uncle."
Immediately afterwards, Deji held the butter lamp and watched Li Jiabin respectfully offer the lamp to the fierce-looking goddess in front of him.
Deji is very smart. Even though it was his first time, he did not make any mistakes after learning from others.
Just after the two of them placed the butter lamps on the altar, the flames on the lamps went out with a "swish" sound!
Li Jiabin's eyebrows twitched, and with a sense of sincerity and fear, he quickly knelt down:
"Goddess...did I do something to offend you?"
"If...if my sins really cannot be washed away, please protect this child Deji!"
"Now, the evil sword belonging to my line of executioners has found him."
"He must... absolutely cannot become the next executioner!"
"This is a hell, and everyone who falls into it will never be able to escape..."
Li Jiabin murmured and looked at Deji beside him:
"Child, kneel down quickly!"
However, at this moment, Deji stood there, motionless.
"Deji?"
Li Jiabin panicked immediately.
He stood up quickly and stared into Deji's eyes amid everyone's surprised gazes.
But I saw that Deji's eyes were empty and dazed, as if he had no soul!

What Li Jiabin didn't know was that at the moment Deji offered the butter lamp, he subconsciously glanced at the goddess Bandanlam in front of him.
It was this glance that immediately made him feel dizzy.
At the age of five, he had no idea what was happening, so he felt a sense of weightlessness.
"Ahhhhh!"
With a panicked cry, Deji fell heavily to the ground.
"Ahem!"
The dust stirred up choked his throat. Deji stood up staggeringly and dusted himself off:
"Huh? Doesn't it hurt?"
In confusion, he saw a fiery red world all around him.
The cracked earth, the red sky, the steaming heat wave, the whole world seemed to have no moisture at all.
Deji started to get scared: "Uncle!"
"Uncle, where are you?"
There were exclamations full of fear, but no one answered.
Just then:
"Boom!"
Deji watched in horror as the honor of Goddess Bandanlam appeared under the red clouds in front of him!
At this time, those ferocious eyes stared at Deji, stepping slowly, step by step!
Every step was like an earthquake, causing Deji to sit on the ground.
But he saw the goddess protecting the law in Lhasa, with a human head hanging on her belly, holding a heavenly staff and a kabala bowl, coming towards her with a fierce look.
"You...you are...the goddess Bodhisattva!" Deji turned pale with fright.
The original text comes from Yuta&Read Novel~&
The goddess Bandanlam suddenly raised the Gabala bowl in her hand.
The bowl looked like it was carved from bones, and Deji couldn't even think of resisting.
Suddenly, a gust of fishy wind blew by.
Immediately, there was a roar like a beast.
The deafening sound made Deji dizzy.
After finally regaining his sight, he took a closer look and saw that the goddess actually took out a corpse from the Gabala bowl in her hand, and then bit it directly into her mouth.
In an instant, blood flowed down the goddess's mouth like a waterfall.
Taking a closer look, it was... Li Jiabin!
"Uncle!" Deji trembled all over, but still stood up strongly.
At this moment, I don’t know where the courage came from, so Deji rushed directly to the goddess Bandanlam:
"Give me my uncle back!"
Deji cried and beat the instep of Goddess Bandanlam hard.
However, the evil goddess did not care about Deji's behavior, but raised the heavenly staff in her hand.
But he saw the heavenly staff falling towards Deji.
"Boom!"
In a daze, Deji seemed to feel like he had been knocked.
But...it doesn't hurt?
In doubt, Deji was shocked to find that there was a black energy lingering all over his body!
This black gas had an indescribable stench and made him feel very uncomfortable.
At this time, the black energy followed the goddess's heavenly staff and gradually tore into the Gabala bowl in his hand.

In an instant:
"Who do you think you are!"
"You dare to disrupt my plan!"
A sharp roar came from the black air.
"Um?"
The goddess seemed angry.
The red and white dice on her body began to spin rapidly.
In an instant, the red dice was grabbed by the goddess and thrown heavily towards the ground.
"Wow!"
A pile of blood poured out from the cracks in the ground!

The blood seemed to be boiling, still bubbling.
Immediately afterwards, the goddess turned the Gabala bowl upside down. The black air that was torn from Deji's body was directly thrown into the blood below in a burst of screams, and dissipated in an instant!
Immediately, the goddess released her mouth.
Li Jiabin's body fell directly to the ground.
"uncle!"
"uncle!"
Deji shook Li Jiabin's body in grief, trembling with fear.
"Boom!"
But he saw the goddess slowly squatting down and slowly extending her palm in front of Deji.
When the palm is opened, there is a white dice inside.
Deji looked at the goddess in shock, but saw that the ferocious face of the goddess seemed... seemed to be a little calmer?
The white dice was thrown by the goddess and landed on Li Jiabin.
As the dice rotated, a lot of blood-red mist appeared on Li Jiabin!
All this mist was absorbed by the white dice.
After doing all this, the goddess ignored Deji and Li Jiabin, stood up slowly, turned around and disappeared into the red clouds.
suddenly:
"Deji!"
"Deji!"
The familiar call made Deji cry with joy.
"uncle!"

The loud call was accompanied by a moment of wakefulness.
Deji suddenly came back to his senses, panting heavily and looking at the anxious Li Jiabin in front of him.
All around, many Tibetans who came to worship Buddha looked at this place with some curiosity.
"Deji, are you okay? Deji!" Li Jiabin asked anxiously.
"uncle……"
Deji murmured something and immediately passed out in Li Jiabin's arms.
[Author's digression]: Little popular science:
Goddess Bandanlam will wear two dice.
One is white and one is red.
This represents the authority of the goddess.
The red one is killing; the white one is enlightenment.
As for the heavenly staff in the goddess's hand, also known as the Kazonga heavenly staff, it was specifically used by the goddess to kill the evil ghost Asura in mythology.
There is also a Gabala bowl held in his other hand, which is a magical instrument made of human skulls.
Generally speaking, this kind of magical instrument needs to be made by a lama with profound spiritual knowledge and his body after his death with his consent.
In Tibetan Buddhism, it is a particularly useful instrument when practicing the initiation ceremony of the Supreme Yoga Tantra.
