Chapter 14 The Jokhang Temple

Although the book Fairy Sword has not been signed, it is now No.1 on the public list.

I didn't care about the update of the saved manuscript, so that Xianjian crushed No. 220 million words in terms of word count, not to mention the gap in writing style.

Sit firmly at the top of the public list, and the effect will not be worse than those recommended after signing the contract. The novel is hung up and beaten.

After looking at the comment area, Ye Kai didn't find the message from the film and television company, so he closed the website and continued to code.

Only two-thirds of this book will be distributed on the website, and Ye Kai chooses to keep the rest.

In the next two days, Ye Kai visited all the scenic spots around him, but none of them triggered the rewards of the system, and it seems that not all the scenic spots will reward things.

So on the day when the inspiration bonus stopped, Ye Kai took a car into LS City.

Although LS is not the end of the Sichuan-Tibet line, it is the end of the self-driving tour or riding the Sichuan-Tibet line. Almost all tourists who come to the snow area will stop at LS.

For Tibetans, LS is a holy city, especially the Jokhang Temple, which Buddhists regard as the center of the world.

The first place Ye Kai went to LS was the Jokhang Temple.

Compared with Gongbu Jiangda, LS is too commercialized. Many Tibetan-style things are actually for tourists to watch. They are beautiful, but they have lost their original simple and practical meaning.

Here you can see tourists from all over the world, tourists are even twice as many as locals, and the streets are full of young travelers with travel bags.

By the side of the road, you can see the Tibetans coming from all over the place to worship. They are still worshiping towards the target with a three-step kowtow ceremony. I don’t know how long they walked, but today they should also arrive at the Jokhang Temple. .

The architectural style of the Jokhang Temple is different from that of the inland temples. It combines the characteristics of Chinese, Indian, and Nepalese temples to form a unique Tibetan temple style.

On the right side of the monastery, many Tibetan believers are kowtowing, some are pilgrims, and some LS locals come to make a wish.

Even some tourists are mixed in.

Ye Kai feels like someone who doesn't understand English at all is flipping through an original English novel, no matter how much you pretend, you can't deny the fact that you don't understand English.

Surrounding them are countless tourists holding up their cameras and shooting wildly.

Ye Kai didn't take pictures of Tibetans, but searched for a long time to take pictures of this group of tourists.Ye Kai felt that the dramatic conflicts between tourists and these pious Tibetan believers would be better if the filming was done.

Tourists buy tickets to enter the Jokhang Temple from the right, and Tibetans line up on both sides from the left.

After entering the Jokhang Temple, you are not allowed to take pictures, so Ye Kai had to close the cover of the SLR to prove that he did not carry any shooting equipment.

He has also entered some temples before, but they are far less solemn than the Jokhang Temple.

In terms of splendor, in fact, the interior of all Tibetan temples is resplendent, some are gold-plated Buddha statues, and some are even all-gold Buddha statues.

But the reason why the Jokhang Temple is so sacred is not because the temple occupies a large area.

It is because of the 12-year-old statue of the Tathagata Buddha enshrined in it, that is, a golden body of the Buddha made according to the 12-year-old height of the Tathagata Buddha, which is said to have been consecrated by the Buddha himself.

In fact, this is also an object of Huaxia itself. It was brought to the snow area when Princess Wencheng entered Tibet.

Entering the Jokhang Temple, there are several big Buddha statues facing you. On the wall on the right side of the main hall is the process of the construction of the Jokhang Temple presided over by the Tibetan King Songtsan Gampo.

The inner courtyard of the Jokhang Temple is very small, surrounded by Buddhist halls and scripture halls, where Buddha statues are enshrined. Tibetans enter to worship in turn, and tourists browse clockwise around the middle.

The order of the Tibetans here is very good, worshiping one after another, from the elderly to children learning to speak, and many young people, there is really no one chatting except chanting.

So even the tourists are infected, and there is no noise in the whole scripture hall, only the sound of monks and Tibetans chanting scriptures.

【You visited the Jokhang Temple and received the baptism of Sanskrit, and your heart became more peaceful】

【Talent +1】

Have more peace of mind?

After receiving the reward, Ye Kai walked around hastily and left the Jokhang Temple.

Although the previous rewards were not tangible, they could be felt.Strengthening of the body, knowledge of the secret books of the three teachings, and knowledge of the snow area.

But this heart is calmer and Ye Kai doesn't feel anything at all.

Talent still doesn't know what it is.

After leaving the temple, Ye Kai walked slowly on the square in front of the Jokhang Temple. There were sketchers, snack sellers, and singers here, and there were a lot of people here.

There are also some who ask you to take pictures, but their shooting is not free, and you will pay for it after the shooting.It’s okay not to give money, but I will definitely scold you with a voice you can hear.

"oops."

Ye Kai came back to his senses.

A person fell on the ground, the easel also fell on the ground, and the paint placed just overturned on the painting.

A nearly finished painting was ruined.

I hit her?It shouldn't be me, although I was thinking about something, but I kept avoiding pedestrians on the road, a big brother suddenly said to Ye Kai at this time.

"How did you walk? I bumped into her just to let you."

"???"

The girl shook her shoulders and helped the easel up after she felt that it was all right. "It's okay, brother, it's just a painting and it's not important."

This girl was wearing sunglasses, and she was wearing a hood all the time, so she couldn't see her face clearly. The elder brother who hit the person didn't pursue the victim when he saw the victim, and gave Ye Kai a contemptuous look before turning around and leaving.

"???"

baffling.

Ye Kai knelt down and helped her pick up the things.

"Thank you."

Ye Kai replied: "No, you are fine."

"Hands hurt a little, but it's not a big problem. It's a pity that this painting is gone. I have to go back tomorrow, and I don't have time to draw another one."

"What's the matter, young people have plenty of time, I'll give you one first, and you can come back later."

I haven't used the painting and calligraphy skills yet, and now my hands are itchy.

The girl obviously didn't realize it, and she was surprised after a while: "Are you a painter?"

"No."

Ye Kai straightened the shelf, picked up the paint box on the side, shook it, it was a little small.

So I took out the cup in the travel bag.

Go to the supermarket and buy another one in a while.

Zhang Zi saw Ye Kai getting ready, and stepped back to enjoy Ye Kai's performance. Seeing Ye Kai bring out a cup without water, she said, "I have water here, and I haven't drunk it yet."

Ye Kai took it over and said, "It's just what I need, thank you."

Unexpectedly, Ye Kai poured mineral water and paint into the water glass together, not because he wanted to drink water, but to get out a cup of black paint.

What does he want to do?
Zhang Zi looked curiously.

Ye Kai arranged several pens in order of size, and prepared the paints to be used in advance.

It's time to start drawing.
