Lama Tiebang immediately decided to go with me to destroy the demon king's tomb. As the Buddha's Tiebang protector, exterminating demons is a top priority. And although he has not sung the poem of the King of the Enemy Jewel for more than 30 years, he still
This heavenly teaching cannot be obtained through learning. If you think about it carefully, you can still remember a lot.
I'm worried that the lama is getting older. After all, he is sixty years old, and he is no better than before. According to the clues in the scriptures, the demon pagoda enshrining the glacier crystal corpse is at the top of the snow mountain. What should I do if something unexpected happens?
Tiebang Lama said: I made a great wish to go around the lake here, but the child of Gemma is still not getting better. I hope that I can do something great this time and bring Gemma's soul back from the underworld. Tibetans regard losing consciousness as soul-leaving syndrome.
After the deed is accomplished, one has to come back and circumambulate the lake to repay the vow. Practitioners have completely different views on death and life than ordinary people. If you die while accumulating merit, you will surely be reborn in bliss.
Seeing that the lama insisted on going, I felt that I was getting what I wanted. Tiebang Lama is well versed in Tibetan customs and understands Tantric medical principles. With his guidance and help, we will definitely get twice the result with half the effort. So we packed up and Wangdui took us to the end of Tibet.
Ali region under the western Himalayas.
At Senge Zangbo, I met up with Fatty Uncle Ming and others. They had just arrived, so there seemed to be one more person for me. Apart from me and Fatty Tiebang Lama, there was Peter Huang with Uncle Ming.
Han Shuna, Ah Xiang, and Uncle Ming’s horseman A Dong also came with them.
I asked Fatty why Adong also came with him. Fatty told me that Adong, the grandson, usually ran errands for Uncle Ming. This time he knew that Uncle Ming was going to do big business, so he begged Uncle Ming to bring him with him every day. Later.
I begged Da Jinya and asked Da Jinya to say something nice. After receiving the benefit, Da Jinya yelled at Uncle Ming, saying that the lowest place in Tibet had an altitude of over 4,000, so he had to bring someone to serve the oxygen tank.
Wouldn't this just require A Dong to carry oxygen bottles for them?
I thought to myself that it was so damn lively this time. There were more and more people, and there were nine people there before we even reached the Guge King City. But there was nothing I could do. Once I found the clue to the place where the demon kingdom was reincarnated in the demon tower, I followed
They act separately and cannot always be mixed together.
There was no road to the Guge ruins at that time, so we had to ask the guide to hire a few yaks and let a few people with severe altitude sickness ride the yaks. Fortunately, there were no heavy supplies. There were only about a hundred households in Senge Zangbo.
After resting in their small town for two days, they set off to the ruins of the royal city to look for the ancient silver eyes.
The road was very desolate, without any human habitation. The yellow and sparse grass was scattered on the Gobi. There was no wind. Looking at the sky, my eyes were full of blue, which made the dry grass on the ground a bit dazzling. The brown mountains in the distance looked towering and strange.
It's hard to expect too much.
We were not moving very fast, and I was holding the yak for the lama. On the back of the yak, Tiebang Lama told me the poems he had learned from heaven, which were all about monsters, monsters, and monsters, and wars about to come.
At this time, some wooden piles protruding from the ground appeared on the roadside. They said that they looked like the ruins of an ancient tomb. When he heard about the ancient tomb, even Uncle Ming, who was having difficulty breathing on the back of the cow, became energetic and stretched his neck.
Go and see the roadside.
The guide said that those ancient tombs have long been deserted, and the contents inside are gone. Don’t look at this place as desolate and barren. In fact, around the Tang Dynasty, it was filled with Qilian juniper trees. The structures of the ancient tombs were made of whole Qilian juniper trees.
This kind of strange tree does not like drought or tide. It can only be found on the mountains at the junction of Qinghai and Tibet. It was given to the Tufan king by the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty and transported thousands of miles away. However, after the Tufan civil strife, these tombs
They were all destroyed, but the remains remain to this day.
After walking through the ruins of this desolate ruins, we walked for about a day before arriving at the ancient city. This place has been in ruins for a long time, and apart from a large number of murals and sculptures, it is the ruins of the city. At that time, it did not attract the attention of the autonomous county government.
It is not as important as the iron gates installed and people guarded a few years later. At that time, no one traveled all the way to see this ruins.
From the bottom of the mountain, we can see that there is a drop of more than 300 meters from the hillside to the top of the mountain. There are buildings and caves that are the same color as the soil everywhere. Except for the temples with relatively strong structures, most of the other houses have collapsed, and some have only a few left.
There are earthen walls and the remains of city walls and watchtowers on the outside. The entire royal city is built on the mountain. The highest point is the royal palace on the top of the mountain, the middle layer is the temple, and the bottom is residential buildings and peripheral defensive buildings.
I said to Uncle Ming: The Guge ruins are not that big, but it will take us some time to find these hundreds of houses and caves. Where exactly is the Guge Silver Eye you mentioned? Let’s find it directly according to the target.
That’s it.
Due to altitude sickness, Uncle Ming's thinking has become very slow. It took him a long time to remember that he was probably in a temple, not the palace. According to the records in the scriptures, there should be a Samsara Temple here, and it should be there.
.
Among the ruins of the royal city, several temples stand out from the crowd, and they can be clearly seen at a glance. Of course, there are red temples, white temples, reincarnation temples and other temple ruins. We couldn't tell which one was right, so we had to ask Lama Tiebang. Of course, the lama
I could tell which one was the Reincarnation Temple from the structure outside, so I pointed out the direction and passed through the Dharma Protector Temple. The temple site with several red pillars behind it was the Reincarnation Temple enshrining the ancient silver eye.
Explorers had visited places like this as early as the 1930s, and I had never heard of any danger. However, for the sake of safety, I gave Fatty a shotgun. I carried one myself and led the team around.
After passing layers of earth walls, we climbed halfway up the mountain. Among the ruins here, the houses are basically not well preserved. Due to the dry weather in Tibet, weathering has intensified. If it is just dry, in the rainy season
There are heavy rains here, and year after year of weathering erosion has made the once dense soil become brittle and crumbled bit by bit. When external force is applied, it turns into a piece of dust. The remnants of broken walls and so on are all prominent.
The edges and corners of the city have been worn away, and the city that was once full of vitality is being silently digested by nature.
We were afraid of being knocked down by the collapsed building wall pillars, so we tried to find an open place to go around. Uncle Ming and his wife could barely hold on, but the frail Axiang couldn't bear it anymore. Climbing to higher places would not save someone's life.
Uncle Ming had no choice but to let Peter Huang stay at the bottom of the mountain to take care of her. The rest of the people continued to move forward. By the time they climbed to the Dharma Protector Temple, most of them were out of breath.
I was still used to the thin air, but when I was resting against the wall, I saw the murals in the temple, and my breathing immediately became heavier. The fat man gasped and said to me: Old Hu, I didn’t expect that this place is actually a place of spiritual civilization.
There is a health blind spot in the country, and if there is such a powerful Huang in Beijing, he will be imprisoned.
The murals here are all tantric male and female practitioners. The painting style is fierce and the colors are strong, making people blush. Going further inside, the content of the murals takes a sharp turn. They are all about the pain of reincarnation in hell, and the torture in hell is described layer by layer.
, the scene was horrific. The lama said that this temple was a forbidden area hundreds of years ago. Ordinary people could only go to the door, but they could not go inside. After the clergy, the king could not enter at will.
The former glory and forbidden area have all collapsed and weathered. After taking a breath, we filed in. The Samsara Temple behind the temple is recessed inside and is slightly less eroded by wind and rain, so it is relatively well-preserved.
What stands out are several large red pillars. There are layers of lamps embedded in the pillars. The tops on the pillars have been damaged and there are several big holes. The statues and other newspaper offices are gone. I don’t know if they were stolen.
, or they all rotted into soil.
I looked around. Everything here was in tatters. There was no ancient relief carving with silver eyes. Uncle Ming pointed to the top of his head: This was probably the carving he was referring to.
We looked up. There was enough daylight at that time, and the sunlight was shining in through the holes in the roof. It was a bit dazzling and dazzling when we looked up, but we could see that the entire roof was a colorful picture, half of which was colorful.
The carvings are half-painted, and although some parts have fallen off and some have been damaged due to the collapse of the building, about 75% of them have been preserved.
In the center of this mural on the top is a huge eyeball. The outer circle is a radial totem, which is divided into eight colors. Each one is a different mythical beast. There is also a circle on the outermost circle, which is dozens of naked figures.
Xing Mu's manners are all the same, and no one is the same. As expected, this is the ancient Tantric Feng Shui coordinates Guge Yinyan.
I said to Uncle Ming, it's time to take out the ancient scripture for us to look at. If we don't understand it clearly, we can't figure out the specific location of the demon tower just with these coordinates.
Uncle Ming found a huge red pillar and sat down against it to catch his breath. A Dong took out the oxygen tube and gave him a few breaths before he could speak. He reached into his bag and touched the scripture. Suddenly, he heard a click.
A pillar in the temple fell down, and everyone shouted and hurriedly ran away to avoid it. The huge pillar collapsed suddenly. In the chaos, it was not clear whether it hit anyone.
It turned out that the foundation of the pillar that Uncle Ming was leaning on had fallen down. It seemed like nothing would happen if he poked it there, but as soon as he leaned on it, it collapsed. Fortunately, it fell to the outside. Otherwise, the hall was narrow and other pillars would have been knocked down.
, they had to smash people to death. Seeing that most of the pillars were missing from the roof, although it had not collapsed yet, everyone did not dare to stay in the temple anymore. They all wanted to go out first and wait until they were in a safe place outside.
As we walked outside, we suddenly found a huge dark space in an earthen wall that had been knocked down by a pillar, which seemed to be a sealed secret room. When the wall collapsed, the rotten air rushed out from inside. It is said that the Italians were in
A large number of caves were found in this ruins, with different functions. The more famous one is the headless mummy cave, and there is also a weapons cave for storing weapons, but they are far away from the Samsara Temple. What is in the secret cave in this temple?
The fat man found a flashlight, turned it on and took a look inside. Everyone's eyes were immediately attracted to what was inside. The outermost one was a bronze statue with three eyes and four arms wearing a crown of transformed Buddhas, sitting cross-legged on a lotus platform on a beast seat.
Three shining silver eyes shine in the golden Buddha statue.
However, behind the three-eyed Buddha statue, there is a tightly closed black iron door. The door is covered with countless spells and scriptures, as if there is something locked inside that cannot be released. Book Alliance
