The Bailam goddess statue in his hand is made of copper. Yu Fei heard the name of the statue from Duoji when he entered the door. The statue is quite old, but because of its ordinary material, its value is not high, which is why Ci
The reason why Langjie is willing to exchange.
What Yu Fei is really interested in is the chaotic energy coming from inside the statue. It is much stronger than the statue itself. The chaotic energy of the statue itself is incomplete. The base and the Buddha body are relatively independent and are only artificially glued together.
Together, and the outside was recast with molten copper. If it weren't for Yu Fei's right hand sensing the energy of chaos, it would really be invisible to the naked eye.
Yu Fei borrowed a Tibetan knife from Baima and carefully scraped off the copper film on the surface. Sure enough, he found that there was a very small gap between the base and the Buddha's body.
The quality of the Tibetan knife is hard to say. Yu Fei inserted the tip of the knife into the gap a little and slowly pried it.
After a while, there was a clanging sound, and the base completely fell off. Also falling down with the base was a rolled-up thangka.
What conveyed the strong atmosphere of chaos turned out to be a thangka. Yu Fei opened the thangka with some disbelief. The picture on it was also the statue of the goddess Bailam, but its dye seemed a bit strange. Yu Fei's snow in Cdanrangjie
I have painted Thangkas by myself at Yu Thangka Handicraft Shop, but I have never seen such colors.
Yu Fei didn't know much about thangka at all. As for the Bailam thangka that was so painstakingly placed in the belly of the statue, although Yu Fei guessed that it must be worth a lot of money, he knew nothing about its origin.
Known.
After hesitating for a while, Yu Fei planned to go to the Internet cafe to check information.
Originally, there was no need for Yu Fei to rush, but tomorrow morning he would accompany Dong Ziyun and the others to the Everest Base Camp, which would take more than a week. With such a question on the road, Yu Fei felt that his heart was itching and he felt very uneasy.
The Internet cafe was two blocks away from Gesang's residence. Yu Fei paid the deposit and turned on the computer to start searching for information about thangkas.
The name thangka thang-ga is a Tibetan-Chinese translation, or it is also called Tangga, Thangka, etc. However, there is currently no unified explanation for Thangka. It generally refers to the method of painting, weaving, inlaying or embroidery on the cloth.
An art style that expresses the content and characteristics of Tibetan culture on silk, paper, wood, or leather. It can be hung for worship, rolled up for collection, or carried with you. The shape can be divided into different sizes. The larger one is generally called the Tang Dynasty.
Ka, the smaller one is called Zagazhagari or miniature thangka.
Regarding the origin of Thangka, the fifth generation recorded in the catalog of Jokhang Temple: Dharma King Songtsen Gampo, the incarnation of Guanyin Buddha, used his own nosebleed to draw a statue of the goddess Bailam in 617-650.
When the living Buddha Guozhuxi sculpted the statue of the goddess Bailam, he hid the statue as the core in the belly of the statue. The statue of the goddess Bailam has been hidden as a living creature in the Baiju Temple in the northeast of Gyantse City. In 1904
The British army launched a large-scale attack on Tibet, ransacked the Baiju Temple, and took away all the valuables in the temple. Even the gilded Buddha had to be broken off and taken away. Since then, the whereabouts of the statue of the goddess Bailam have not been found.
unknown.
After liberation, some people once traced the whereabouts of the statue, but no trace of it was seen in either India or the British Museum in the UK. Some people thought that it must have been taken back and collected by a soldier at that time, or perhaps it was lost during the war.
was damaged.
Seeing this, Yu Fei's heart beat wildly. There is a Bailam thangka hidden in the belly of the Bailam statue. Isn't this exactly the same as the Bailam goddess statue that he exchanged for?
The thick aura of chaos and the slightly strange color can all be explained. The Bailam goddess statue that he exchanged for is probably the one recorded in the catalog of the Fifth Jokhang Temple. If it is true,
Its value is absolutely immeasurable.
Yu Fei was so excited that he wanted to shout a few times to vent his anger. He never expected that he would find the world's first thangka on Bajiao Street. Yu Fei would not sell this thangka. It is said that thangka has the power to protect himself.
He planned to take this thangka back to his hometown and hang it in his parents' room.
When Yu Fei returned, Gesang had already arrived home. When Yu Fei came back, he invited him to have dinner first, and then took Yu Fei to see what he had prepared.
The 2020 is a car that requires more time to take care of. In addition to preparing a lot of auto parts and a complete set of repair tools, Gesang also prepared two extra barrels of 90-proof gasoline. At that time, gasoline was only 3.6 yuan per liter.
.In addition, there are tents, sleeping bags, cold-proof supplies, picnic utensils, food seasonings, first aid supplies, various medicines, etc. If four more people are crammed in, even an off-road vehicle will be full.
Brother Gesang, why did you buy these things? Yu Fei picked up the rolled up tents and said: Do we still have to go camping?
You don’t understand this. Kelsang said: It’s better to go from Lhasa to Shigatse. From Shigatse to the west to Lazi and finally to the Everest Base Camp, this road is sparsely populated. We may not be able to find people to stay, and the 2020 bus
There is no air conditioning, so bring these just in case, as the temperature there at night can be below freezing.
Okay. Yu Fei doesn't understand any of this at all, so he can only listen to Gesang's arrangements for everything.
Early the next morning, around seven o'clock, Gesang and Yu Fei drove to the Balangxue Hotel to pick up Dong Ziyun and Leng Yufei.
Compared to Fei's lethargy, the two of them were as excited as if they hadn't slept all night, chattering away.
When they heard that Gesang drove them there, the two of them naturally would not object. After all, catching the bus was a very painful thing.
But the excessive salutes made by the two of them made Gesang sweat on his forehead.
Dong Ziyun and Leng Yufei seemed to be making a big move. They packed three big boxes. If they really stuffed these big boxes, no one would be able to get in in 2020.
In the end, Kelsang persuaded the two of them to put these things at his home first, and then find a way to transport them to Ningdu after returning from Everest Base Camp.
This delay lasted for more than an hour, and by the time the four of them officially set off, it was almost nine o'clock.
Heading west from Lhasa, the first eighty kilometers of asphalt road were easy to walk. As the car drove out of the city, the two women were in high spirits. They saw the low blue sky and white clouds and the groups of people who occasionally appeared next to the car.
The cattle and sheep couldn't help but let out bursts of admiration. If they weren't afraid that shouting would cause lack of oxygen, they might have broken their throats by shouting.
But after a while, the two of them yawned non-stop. Last night they almost didn't sleep all night, and now they were jolted by the car, and they were sleepy. When Yu Fei and Gesang chatted for a while, they turned around and realized that they were sitting in the back seat.
The two of them had already fallen asleep leaning against each other.
