Chapter 372 The way home
"According to the county records, Guoshan welcomed the Sutras and Luan Yi at that time, and specially built the Wanshou Pavilion and the Sutra Collection Building."
"The Wanshou Pavilion is the most representative stone and wood structure building of Fawang Temple. It is five feet high, three-thirds wide, and has two floors. The hollow wood carvings on it are exquisite. In the middle of the first floor, there is a seven-foot-high and four-foot-wide pavilion."
The Monument of Fawangji Temple'."
"The stele is engraved with 'Nine-Dragon Open Carving' using a hollow carving technique, enshrining the tablet 'Long live the current emperor, long live the emperor'. The forehead of the stele is engraved with the word 'Imperial Edict', and the inscription records that 'The Emperor of the Qing Dynasty gave the Longzang Sutra to Fawang Temple.
It is an imperial edict for the jungles in the ten directions to start preaching precepts on a regular basis."
"The second floor is the Sutra Collection Building, where the Dragon Collection Sutra was first stored."
"However, later on this important classic no longer had any records, including the fact that the man who was stationed in the Manzhou area liked to plant trees around the Fawang Temple with his entourage, and there is no data to show that he had any influence on this set of classics."
"Later on, traditional cultural facilities, collections, and classics in various places were damaged to varying degrees."
"This lasted for many years. During this process, Fawang Temple was damaged beyond repair. The whitewashed walls and sculptures depicting Buddha statues in the temple were all gone. The description of the scriptures was 'scattered and lost, unnameable'."
"
Seeing Gu Youwen and Teacher Yuan's faces look worried, Zhou Zhi hurriedly said: "This is what Ci Xiang, the fourteenth generation abbot of Fawang Temple, wrote to the county in 1976. The new county annals describe the Fawang Temple.
After a while, I added it."
"However, it is not certain whether the sutra that Zen Master Cixiang said was 'lost and unnameable' is the Dragon Tibetan Sutra."
"We did not do a good job before and focused more on the statistical investigation and protection of immovable cultural relics, easy-to-preserve tombstones, Han coffins, etc. I reviewed this with Master Zuzu and Teacher Yuan."
"I can't blame you for this." Teacher Yuan said with a smile: "To put it this way, the restoration institute still has tens of thousands of ancient books that need to be restored, including thousands of rare books, as well as those of the four Wu sects and Bada Shanren.
The treasures of calligraphy and painting are all left in the warehouse, who should I go to review them with?"
"In this situation, it really means those four words..." Gu Youwen shook his head: "Everything is waiting to be done."
"Don't underestimate yourself, you and Zhengping have already done a great job. It can be said that Jiachuan's cultural conservation work has been done so well precisely because of you."
"That's how modest you are." Manager Fei said, "Mr. Gu hasn't told you yet, but the classification of several cultural relics has been released. The Jianyuan tombstone and the Xin Dynasty stamping cost ten cents, and they have been designated as first-class cultural relics.
But...I'm afraid I won't be able to come back."
"There is no doubt about the importance of several figurines, especially the secret drama figurines, which are discovered for the first time."
"Actually, I think the shaman-god figurines are more important." Gu Youwen said: "This figurine was also found in Pengshan before. Where is Pengshan? The seat of Beipingzhi in Tianshi Dao, and the age of the figurines is the Eastern Han Dynasty."
"Can we think so? This means that the Han religious forces in central Shu at that time had expanded to Manzhou Jiachuan, a traditional ethnic minority area at that time? In other words, this weird etiquette itself is the common work of several religious forces.
The result of fusion?”
"Yes." Zhou Zhi agreed with Gu Youwen's point of view: "The amount of ancient information carried by religious pottery figurines is much greater than that of secret opera figurines, and there are more interesting mysteries behind them."
"Uh...can we save this for discussion later?" Manager Fei looked at his watch: "Mr. Gu, Mr. Yuan, it's time for us to set off, otherwise it will be too late to reach Jiachuan tonight."
"Ah, yes." Gu Youwen said with a smile: "This conversation will never end. It's time to set off quickly."
Teacher Yuan said with a smile: "These two books are my personal thanks. You can hold them by your elbow. The possibility of finding the "Dragon Hidden Sutra" is very slim, but I would like to trouble you to give you some information about it."
"Thank you, Teacher Yuan." Zhou Zhi took the book and said, "I will definitely find out the ins and outs of the Dragon Tibetan Sutra, and then give an answer to Master Zuzu and Teacher Yuan."
"Come over next vacation and I will show you "Han Hai", "Seven Histories of Meishan", and "The Complete Map of the Mountains and Rivers of the Qianlong Sichuan Province".
"Oh, Teacher Yuan, if you say that again, I won't leave. I..." Zhou Zhi and Teacher Yuan laughed and said, "You don't keep people like this."
"You can bring these research papers with you." Gu Youwen pointed to a cardboard box beside the coffee table. Inside was a box of printed materials: "These are some recent studies on the Northern Song Dynasty by people at home and abroad. They cover all aspects."
"Abroad?" Zhou Zhi was a little surprised: "Can foreign experts be better than our own?"
"Don't be too proud." Gu Youwen looked calm: "In some aspects, their information is even more complete than ours."
“For example, the Blackwater Dunhuang Documents of Moscow State University, the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Picture Scrolls of the Two Song Dynasties, Columbia University’s Collection of Ancient and Modern Books, and the English, French, German, and Japanese... They have a large number of precious Chinese cultural relics in their hands.
The regulations, on the contrary, are closer to the water than us."
Only then did Zhou Zhi react: "This is something I didn't expect. It's true. Thank you, Master, for your teachings."
"Well, he's not irritated or angry, but he has a good temperament for learning." Gu Youwen stroked his beard: "He is just calm and calm, but he has lost the spirit of the young Fang Gang."
Zhou Zhi could only sigh: "Character, if you put it in the right place, it will be a characteristic, if you put it in the wrong place, it will be a shortcoming. There is nothing you can do about it."
"Let's go. If your godfather is short of money... remember to write and let him know."
"I shouldn't bother Master with this matter." Zhou Zhi said with a smile: "If that doesn't work, he can still blow off my mother's pillow!"
"Hey you little guy, hurry up and leave!"
After leaving Taohua Village, the vehicle started heading south. There was no other words on the road until it reached Manzhou in the evening.
I originally planned to pay Miss Sixth Sister a visit when I came back, but even though Zhou Zhi was carrying so many valuable things in his car, he didn't have the guts to skip this trip.
Besides, there are still many things to discuss with Xiao Liujie and Zhu Dachang.
When the car stopped at the lighting city, Zhou Zhi realized how big Zhu Dazhang's business had become.
This is the first private decoration market in Manzhou's history. The first floor is for kitchen and bathroom tiles, the second floor is for lamps, and the third floor is for furniture.
Miss Liu is a very "petty bourgeois" person who pays great attention to appearance. She has a large office on the third floor. The layout of the office is completely different from that of cousin An Ran's office.
Today's offices rarely use blue and gray as the main color. Sister Xiaoliu was happy when Zhou Zhi poked his head at the door: "I heard that you are a very busy person now. If you are too busy, you don't have to come..."
"I believed your lies!" Zhou Zhi shook his head firmly: "If I really didn't come, I'm afraid you wouldn't have said this..."
