Chapter 876 The Heavenly Mother’s Guidance in the Jokhang Temple
After getting off the train, Kongsang immediately came to the taxi stop.
Originally, Kongsang's plan was to go to the mental hospital immediately after arriving in Lhasa.
After all, if only La Ya's family was plotting against Zhao Yuecheng, he wouldn't be too worried.
But if... there was a so-called cult behind this, he would feel a little uneasy.

In the car, the driver asked:
"Young man, where are you going?"
Kong Sang originally wanted to say the former site of the mental hospital, but he said in a strange way:
"Master, please send me to the Jokhang Temple!"
The driver nodded and immediately started the accelerator.
Kong Sang was a little confused.
At that moment, why did I subconsciously say Jokhang Temple?
Could it be that... Jokhang Temple is somehow important?
Indeed... it is a very important part of Zhao Yuecheng's past experience.
According to Zhao Yuecheng himself, he had already met the goddess since his first trip to the Jokhang Temple.

This is probably an opportunity that many Tibetans who have spent their entire lives burning incense and worshiping Buddha cannot ask for.
Could it be that... this kind of blessed mind is also reminding myself that there are... clues in the Jokhang Temple?
Kong Sang, whose head was as big as a bucket, suddenly felt like he had a migraine.
"Master, let me take a nap."
"When you arrive, please tell me thank you."
Immediately, Kong Sang leaned slightly against the back seat, closed his eyes, and gradually fell into sleep in the slightly bumpy car.
…
"Little brother, the Jokhang Temple has arrived."
I don’t know how long it took, but the driver’s voice woke Kong Sang up.
Kong Sang rubbed his dry eyes and paid the bill.

However, the driver said he had arrived.
But after getting off the bus, you still have to walk some distance.
Looking at the Jokhang Temple not far away, Kongsang shook his head helplessly.
Of course, the taxi can't drive any higher.
After all, starting from here is the forest outline including Yaowang Mountain, Ramoche Temple and other landscapes.
Kong Sang took out his cell phone, and as always a road-crazy person, he clicked on Daoxing.
He had to walk from Linkuo to Bajiao Street before reaching the outer wall of the Jokhang Temple.
And this street is also the place where Tibetans must pass when they go to the Jokhang Temple.
Along the way, looking at the prayer flags dancing in the wind and the devout believers who knelt and kowtowed from time to time, Kong Sang couldn't help but sigh that the humanities here were indeed very different from those in Beijing.
The people here seem to have found their most harmonious way in terms of beliefs and rituals.
And this set of things, if placed in many places in mainland Kyushu, may not be understood, or may be considered exaggerated.
At this time, compared with these Tibetans who were walking slowly and turning around, the fast-moving Kongsang seemed a little out of place.
Soon, he arrived at the entrance of Jokhang Temple.
At this time, Kong Sang looked at the map instructions at the entrance of the temple and couldn't help but murmured:
"According to what Dachengzi said before, he has worshiped almost all the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in the Jokhang Temple."
"It's just that in front of the guardian goddess Bandaram, different things happened several times."
"Hmm... It seems that I don't need to delay anymore. Let's go directly to Jixiang Tianmu..."
Immediately, Kong Sang bypassed the first and second floors.
However, he really did not understand the many Buddhas and Bodhisattvas of Tibetan Buddhism.
After arriving on the third floor, I also compared the groups in the photos and finally determined the throne of the auspicious heavenly mother-Goddess Bandanlam.
Not far away, some practicing lamas were lighting butter lamps for worship.
Seeing this, Kongsang came to the lamp-lighting lama.
The lama was a little surprised by the sudden appearance of the Han youth, and immediately showed a kind smile:
"This donor, do you have any instructions?"
Kongsang thought for a while and then said: "I want to offer a butter lamp in front of the goddess Bandanlam and ask the master for guidance."
The lama smiled, then held up a butter lamp and gave it to Kongsang:
"Guidance is out of the question. As long as you are sincere, the goddess will naturally hear your prayers."
Kong Sang thanked him and donated some incense money as usual.
Immediately, he brought the butter lamp to the throne of Goddess Bandanlam.
Kongsang took a deep breath. Although he didn't understand the Tibetan etiquette of kneeling and worshiping, at least he had to make sure that his manners were correct.
After placing the butter lamp respectfully in front of the throne, Kongsang looked at the goddess Bandanlam.
He lowered his head slightly and said piously:
"Initiation...Goddess Bandanlam."
"I am Kong Sang, the watchman of this generation, and I am also Deji's partner."
"Come here this time to offer a butter lamp."
"If the goddess has a spirit, please give me some guidance."
"How should I investigate and resolve the grievances and resentments surrounding the Deji incident?"
"Now it seems that there are many things involved."
"Please also ask the goddess... to express it clearly!"
After saying that, Kong Sang took a deep breath and bowed down from a distance.

Originally, Kong Sang was still thinking about whether he would get a response since this was his first time here.
But at this moment, the slightly noisy sounds around him suddenly became quiet.
Kong Sang was stunned and noticed the change.
When I looked up, I saw that all the Tibetans and lamas in the temple had disappeared.
What I saw was that except for the goddess Bandanlam in front of me, there were no other Buddha statues or any living beings!
Kong Sang was shocked and was about to speak.
However, he saw that the goddess Bandanlam above her slowly stood up.
Immediately afterwards, the goddess's posture began to change.
That ferocious face slowly turned around.
The backside of the goddess that came into view turned out to be a kind face.
The goddess wears a flower crown on her head, wears a white robe, and holds a bowl of exquisite jewelry. She looks majestic and majestic, completely different from Bandan Lhamo's ferocious appearance!
Kong Sang's heart moved.
He also understood the saying that many gods, Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in Buddhism have the characteristics of gentleness, wrath, etc.
Even after knowing about Bandanlam, he did some research.
The goddess in front of me should also be Bandanlam.
It's just that... his current posture should be the gentle appearance of his auspicious Heavenly Mother.
“Meet Heavenly Mother!”
Feeling the oppression in front of him, Kongsang vaguely felt that it might be because the density of Tibetan people's beliefs was too high.
The deterrent power of these gods seems to be much stronger than most of the gods in the Kyushu mainland that I have seen!
However, the goddess did not say anything.

Instead, he took three gems from his bowl filled with gems and slowly stretched out his hand.
Kong Sang was a little confused, but still subconsciously reached out and took it.
At this moment, the three gems fell into Kong Sang's palm.
Before Kong Sang could speak, the gem suddenly changed and turned into three palm-sized statues.
Kong Sang took a cursory look and saw that although the facial features on the statues had changed slightly, he was certain that these three statues all represented Zhao Yuecheng!
One of them is Zhao Yuecheng, who is wearing Tibetan clothing. His face is sunny, innocent and cute, and he looks like a cute little boy.
This statue is also the youngest among the three statues.
Kong Sang estimated that...it seemed that Zhao Yuecheng's age when he first met Gongbu was very similar, about six or seven years old.
However, Kong Sang suddenly felt that the back of the statue was uneven to the touch.
He turned the first statue over.
What came into view was Zhao Yuecheng, who was also of the same age, had the same facial features, and was dressed in the same dress, but his face looked sad.
Then, Kong Sang looked at the second statue.
Zhao Yuecheng here should look a little older, but that's wrong.
It's just that... his face is relatively stern.
He was disheveled and the clothes he wore looked like a hospital gown!
The eyes are like poisonous snakes. Just looking at this statue makes people shudder.
Kong Sang's eyebrows twitched. This image... could it be when Zhao Yuecheng was imprisoned in a mental hospital?
He quickly turned the statue over.
The opposite image is that there is no difference in face and clothing.
The only difference is that in his palm, he holds a bloody lotus.
Looking carefully, I saw the texture of the lotus petals, which looked... not so much petals, but more like... cut out of flesh and blood!
Kong Sang's heart trembled, flesh and blood lotus?
He remembered that he had seen somewhere that in Tibetan Buddhism a long time ago, there was indeed a special magical weapon called the Flesh Lotus.
It's just that the method was too destructive to values, so it was gradually lost.
Kongsang subconsciously thought of the blood lotus in the hand of the Guanyin Bodhisattva he saw on the Blood Sea Guanyin picture.
It seems... very similar to the one on this statue?
Thinking of this, Kong Sang suddenly felt an indescribable uneasiness.
The third statue is the current Zhao Yuecheng.
It's just...this third statue is the most special.
On the one hand, he is very normal, no different from Zhao Yuecheng in the eyes of everyone now.
However, when he turned the statue to look at it, his hand shook subconsciously and he almost dropped the statue to the ground.
Because... the carving on the back is actually what I saw... the Guanyin of the Sea of Blood!
Kong Sang was shocked for a moment!
Is this a hint?
It's just...these three statues have six different images on the front and back.
What does this mean?
In shock and doubt, Kongsang raised his head and looked at the goddess Bandanlam.
But at this moment, the goddess has returned to her throne.
"My Heavenly Mother, please teach me!"
Kong Sang couldn't help but become a little anxious.
However, Bandan Lhamo had returned to his angry state and no longer paid attention to Kongsang.
Suddenly, the entire Buddhist temple began to twist and change again.
Faintly, Kong Sang actually saw the prairie!
But there are many statues of Buddha and Bodhisattvas on the grassland.
And these statues are cracked one after another, their limbs are missing, and they look broken! Just like the end of the Dharma era as mentioned in Buddhism!
Viewed from a distance, there is nothing sacred about it!
suddenly:
"Woo...Woo..."
A wolf howl caught Kong Sang's attention.
But he saw a wolf whose whole body was full of evil spirit, standing like that on a high slope.
Its size is unusually large, almost comparable to that of lions and tigers!
And that ferocious look is not what a wolf should have at all, it looks like an evil ghost!
The most important thing is that its teeth are stained with blood.
"Is this...is this the Gongbu that Dachengzi has been looking for?"
In doubt, Kong Sang found a familiar figure standing not far away.
"That's..."
Kong Sang shouted subconsciously:
"Da Chengzi!"
At this moment, the figure trembled all over and turned around immediately.
In an instant, evil eyes and a strange face appeared on Zhao Yuecheng!
There is an arc from forehead to chin, which seems to divide Zhao Yuecheng's face into two parts!
Half of his eyebrows, eyes, and lips were no different from Zhao Yuecheng's. Although he was stern, he was still within the emotional range of a normal person.
But the other half of the face is just like the wrathful look of the Buddha. Although the facial features remain unchanged, the eyes have become very evil! The scarlet eyes seem to see themselves through the mysterious miracle of the goddess!
For a moment, Kong Sang felt as if he was in an ice cellar.
The bone-chilling chill even made him feel like his legs and feet were not functioning properly!
At this time, behind Zhao Yuecheng, a Guanyin slowly appeared.
That Guanshiyin is actually the same as Zhao Yuecheng.
Half of them have kind eyebrows and kind eyes, dressed in plain white, holding a pure vase of willow trees!
The other half has a blood-colored necklace, a sinister face, and holds a flesh and blood lotus!
At this time, Zhao Yuecheng looked at Kong Sang and grinned.

The same smile, the same angle, but two completely different emotions.
Immediately:
"Om mani padme hum!"
Holy tones and evil tones recite the same scripture at the same time.
The miraculous scene in front of me suddenly collapsed!
Kong Sang's eyes darkened and he suddenly fainted!
[Author's digression]: Little popular science:
In Tibetan Buddhism, the teachings of Buddha and Bodhisattvas are much richer.
Basically, it is roughly divided into three forms. They are the peaceful phase (mild phase), the angry phase, and the peaceful and angry phase.
The phase of silence is when the Buddha and Bodhisattvas have kind eyebrows and kind eyes, which represents compassion for all living beings and also represents the kind side of people's hearts.
Tadu@ Generally speaking, the Silent Meeting wears the Five Buddha Crown, which represents the "Five Wisdoms". There will also be flower vines or necklaces on the body as a symbol of getting rid of the three poisons of Buddhism.
For example, in this article, the silent image of Goddess Bandanram is in a white robe and holding jewelry.
The wrathful sign is not as simple as the Buddha or Bodhisattva being angry. On the one hand, it represents the meaning of the Dharma Protector, and on the other hand, it represents the image that expresses the three poisons of the human heart: greed, anger, and ignorance. Therefore, there is also a saying that if a person has the three
When poison exists, the Buddha and Bodhisattva you see will appear angry.
The wrathful aspect is not directed at the believers, but at the three poisonous inner demons in the believers' bodies. It frightens them with a ferocious and terrifying appearance.
At the same time, the representative of the wrathful aspect is the five-skull crown. As shown in this article, the initial image of the goddess Bandanlam is described.
As for the aspect of silence and anger, it is somewhere in between.
This kind of Dharma does not have the crown of five skulls or the crown of five Buddhas. It is somewhere in between the two.
But this kind of image rarely appears among Buddhas and Bodhisattvas.
Here, three statues and six images are used as hints, which is another main element in this article besides the love between humans and wolves!
You can guess first how the plot will develop in the future.
