Chapter 173 – Ghost Mother Strike Demon Bowl
We searched toward the front of the ancient temple, the weeds, and there is no one’s footprints, in addition to weeds and rocks, and occasionally see some of the half not in the soil of the white bones of the animals, look at the shape of that skeleton, and even the Tibetan horse and yak bear and yak a class of large animals, I do not know is the old dead here, or what the rest of the beasts ate the rest of the.
In arriving at the ancient temple in front of the door of this section of the journey, lama briefly said some of the abandoned temple about the situation, the Tibetan ancient legend, the world’s enemy of the precious pearl king, by the commission of the princess of gaddi (gaddi: ancient Tibet called the hanji for gaddi), in the lotus masters of the help, to kill the demon consort hid into the kunlun mountains, in the oral narrative of thousands of years of circulation in a long poem, there has been an exhaustive description of the psalm, the psalm mentions that The Demon Concubine was originally the reincarnation of the Demon Mother of the Demon Kingdom.
Since ancient times this not far from the Kunlun Divine Spring mountain concave, is a cursed place, through the herdsmen and livestock, often inexplicable disappearance, the local living Buddha, has not to once sent iron rod lama and vajra protector, to find out why the mountain, but always have no clue.
Until the Qianlong years, there was a strong collapse of the mountain, some people found that the hillside reveals a nameless ancient tomb, the location of the back of the mountain facing the lake, the ancient tomb of the stone door collapsed, wide open, but the local herdsmen superstitious, who did not dare to go in, only in the outside to the inside, only to see inside a lot of the age of the wood.
Ancient tomb outside the stone road half submerged in the lake, sheep and tiger a class of stone people and stone beasts of the tomb have been damaged, the inscription mark and so on all the inscriptions can not be found, there is no way to know who is buried in the grave, there are people who stay in the vicinity of the often attracted trouble.
Living Buddha sent lamas into the cracked tomb search, from which some human bones, the rest of the things have been rotten, in addition to digging out a monument, engraved with a Tibetan on the ground of the ancient legend of the scene “ghost mother hit the bowl figure”.
The local people think here before all kinds of disasters, must be and the demon country of the ghost mother of the demon consort, maybe here is her last place of burial, and later this matter was known by the court, because at that time the Tibetan area of the frequent civil unrest, in order to pull together people’s hearts and minds, show the emperor’s saintly virtue and benevolence, it will be funded by the court, here built a tribute to the “great virtue of the golden steel “of the temple, to eliminate evil, but also asked the living Buddha sent people to preside over the temple in the size of things.
After the completion of the “great phoenix temple”, incense flourished for a while, a lot of herdsmen came a long way to turn the mountain to the lake, but this area of the strange things still continue, there are a lot of people are in the night, see a strange people in green clothes, infested in the vicinity of the lake, and turn the day, there will certainly be a person drowned in the water, and was drowning people, whether fat or thin, as long as a person was drowned in the water, and the people were drowned, and the people were drowned, and the people were drowned. Whether fat or thin, as long as the water is not over the top of the head, even if it is immediately rescued, but also only skin and bones, dry as bark.
There have been more than once people witnessed, the water deep out of a large as the wheel of the green hand, grabbed the shore of the people and animals, pulled down into the water, lamas cut off the watershed, so that the lake dries up, want to find out the root cause of which, but only to see the bottom of the lake withered bones, chanting the scriptures and do great deeds, do not play any role, had to use the barricades blocked the tomb, abandoned the temple and go, in the Buddhism flourished in Tibet, the fact of abandonment of the temple in the temple is too rare, from then on! After that, people warned each other to stay away from this ominous forbidden land.
To the seventies, these past events in addition to some of the old age of the old lama, the rest of the people have gradually forgotten, and began to people greedy for convenience, come to this barren meadow to play winter grass, we found the remains of the section of the stone road, that is, when blocking the ancient tomb cracks of the scripture stone, which is engraved with the tantric mantra of the big day sutra sparse, can not be stepped on, lama told us here, shook his head and sighed, whispered chatter to the “Alas, now not many people still take the words of the Buddha seriously.”
Big man listen to this so evil call, then whispered to me, “Old Hu, really can have what he said this kind of thing? Bullshit, right?”
I do not deny, think a few days ago under the Kunlun Mountain volcano activity is frequent, resulting in a major earthquake, perhaps the tomb was sealed, again cracked, but since the tomb of all things, has been early in the Qianlong years, will be emptied, that means that there is only a “market tomb”, I only know that the market tomb of the place should not be stayed for a long time, the strange legend of the temple. As for the strange legends in the temple, I can’t figure it out.
The four of us in order not to leave behind any clues, parallel to a certain distance, advancing to the ancient temple before the crumbling walls, but along the way did not find any suspicious signs, then the first group led by the company commander, also out of the weeds, their side also did not find anything, the two groups temporarily merged into the “great phoenix temple”. The two groups temporarily merged and entered the “Great Phoenix Temple”.
This temple is damaged and spoiled very seriously, only a few circles of broken walls, can vaguely see the scale of the year, this time a round of big and round moon, from the heavy lead clouds revealed, the moon is bright as day, illuminating the broken temple in a bright, and the mountain beams on the snow is still falling non-stop, the cold wind blowing down, bumping people lungs are cool, viscera seem to be frozen into an ice weight, where there is still a mind to appreciate, this half moon half snow spectacle The moonlight and half of the snow.
The local garrison has this mantra: “over the Kunlun Mountains, into the ghost gate, to the Frozen Spring, tears into ice, Kunlun Pass, frozen to death wolves.” Abandoned temple where the mountain pass is exactly a suck wind big mouth, with ice slag of cold wind, from all directions will pour in, forming a whimpering strange sound, hovering in the barren grass over the ancient temple, the strangest thing is that the temperature here is very low, next to the green plants but still able to survive, the lake is never freezing, and there is no any fish and water plants inside, the legend is that in the ancient times, there is no wind here, there are also three feet of waves. A long time ago, most of the lake has dried up, only a small piece of water blisters, so it is regarded as “ghost lake Layangtso” in the past life.
The small group of people into the broken temple walls, the company commander let the lama of the temple and the surrounding terrain, a detailed introduction to the group, understand almost after, the company commander or the people divided into two groups, he personally led to the temple behind the entrance to the ancient tombs around the second group is responsible for the search of the ancient temple ruins, as well as side of the puddle around the area, if encountered hostile situation, shoot to show the warning, but before shooting, must confirm the situation, do not cause unnecessary ethnic conflict, if you are in a situation, you will not be able to find the enemy, but you can not find the enemy, you can not find the enemy. If the missing squad was still not found before dawn, the superiors would deploy the entire battalion from the military division to conduct a search and rescue.
After the company commander finished the arrangement, he took his few people, straight from the broken wall through, in fact, the ancient tomb behind the temple is not grand, only two civilian room area, we only so in front of the temple to see the tomb sealing the scripture stone, is because the earthquake led to the geological belt fissure widening, the entire geological layer of the hillside are ripped apart, and the other end of the tomb room connected into a single body.
We did not dare to delay, let the lama lead the way, the broken temple inside and outside the search, in the very center of the position, we saw a broken human body ox-faced multi-armed statue of God, the face of the fierce and angry, this is the power of ambush evil, help good power of the Great Wisdom of the Great Virtue of the Golden Steel.
Dawei Dajin Gang elephant, there is a one-meter-thick slab, which is dug out from the temple behind the ancient graves, very dilapidated and dilapidated, I used cotton gloves to wipe away the dust and soil on top, revealing the above stone carvings, I and the big man, Xu officer feel very curious, want to look at what the ghost mother looks like, only to see that the engraving on the boulder has been almost worn out, and even more so, there is no color, but in the stone pattern detailed, but also to see six or seven points of the old look. I can still see six or seven points of the old look.
A naked woman, three eyes and six arms, the whole body is full of strange ornaments, these ornaments shape twisted, seem to be related to the serpent god, beside the body placed a huge water bowl, the bowl body has a cicada wing pattern, the bowl sits crookedly in a black and fat child, also three eyes and six arms, holding a snake short staff, knocking the bowl body, the background of the figure, is the countless piles of cattle skulls into the mountains.
The lower half of the slate may be due to years buried in the soil, has been eroded by water and soil erosion blackened and decayed, so can only see this half of the picture above, we are just looking at a rare, who did not feel that the ghost of mother what terrible, Xu officer said: “This image is disrespectful to the women, the good thing is that the all-pervasive feudal forces have been overthrown, the millions of serfs in Tibet turned over to be emancipated, this is to thank the President, his old man ah. We have to thank the President for this.”
I said of course, so we should not forget to dig a well, the President’s teachings can not be forgotten, we must always tighten the class struggle this string ah, finished these words, and then turned to ask the lama, that what what the ghost of the mother is doing? Is it a watchdog of the feudal ruling class?
The lama took us towards the lake behind the temple, singing the mantra while walking, said the origin of the ghost mother, the original in the poem recounting the deeds of the hero king, the biggest enemy of the Ling Kingdom is the devil country, the ghost mother is the devil country of very high status, is similar to the queen of the existence of the general, specializing in the devil monarchs after the death of the reincarnation of the reincarnation of the ghost mother is also every time you die, will be reincarnated here again reborn, and want to eradicate the devil’s king, must be killed, otherwise the If you want to completely eradicate the royal family of the Devil Kingdom, you must kill the Ghost Mother, otherwise the nightmare of the Ling Kingdom will never stop.
In that era, the death in people’s eyes is divided into many levels, the death of the ghost mother, must be the termination of her reincarnation of the complete demise, as soon as we talk about these contents, we are not too willing to listen to it, we will speed up the pace forward, the heart suddenly thought, deep in the large glacier under the nine layers of the demon building, is a tomb of a devil country nobles, here and out of what a fucked up ghost mother, does it mean that a large area in the vicinity, used to be the Ancient Demon Kingdom’s mausoleum area?
The area behind the broken temple, more desolate and dilapidated, the old lama has never been, now all the people are careful to guard, I always care, but in their presence, feet stepping on the piece, exists in the ancient legend of the wilderness, can’t help but not the whole body tight, after the temple of the lake, now only a small piece of pond, herders to report to the People’s Liberation Army, yak was dragged into the water is here, the ground there are still a lot of The ground still has many traces of struggling and dragging, and does not look like a hostile disguise.
The water in the pond was almost all black, rotten grass and silt, the stench was overwhelming, the four of us stood at the edge of the pond, we didn’t dare to take a big breath, it was really too damn stinky, the big man pointed to a piece of black stuff in the water and said to me, “That seems to be a military hat.”
Big man stood in the pond, probed on the bayonet of the rifle, want to be in the water as if the sheep shearling leather hat things to pick over to see, I just want to stop him, suddenly the pond in the stink of the water slightly shaking, seems to have a huge green manpower, quietly emerged from the bottom of the water, want to grab the big man pulled in, I immediately put a long time ago top of the loaded semiautomatic rifle lifted up, the finger is not yet pulled to the trigger, I hear the north-western side of the sudden burst of sharp The sound of gunfire, another group of people, may also encounter a sudden situation ……
