Chapter 199 Chapter 58 Potala Palace

Both Fan Debiao and Liu Dashao admired Jia Zhuangyuan. To be honest, there are very few people who are loyal in this era, so they said to him: "Then please come with us. As long as you find it, don't worry about it." Join in, after you come out, add two to one and make five, each of us has half!" Unexpectedly, Jia Zhuangyuan said: "I don't want to make a fortune when I go. In fact, in Shaanxi, although I don't have the energy to find big targets, sometimes I can fight once, which is enough for my retirement!" Everyone was very excited at first, but this time I went to Tibet without a tour guide and faced the problem of lack of experience.Jia Zhuangyuan has rich experience and has experienced things in the ancient city, so he led the team.

Jia Zhuangyuan said: "Let's agree in advance that I will only guide the way, and the key decision-making issues must be decided by this Mr. Liu." Everyone agreed with this proposal. Jia Zhuangyuan said: "Don't look at the desert area of ​​Tibet, everyone knows that there is an ancient city there. Not only the Chinese, but even the bastard foreigners are fooling around with me, doing research on ancient documents, and secretly shipping hard goods abroad!" The hard goods mentioned by Jia Zhuangyuan are actually gold, silver, jade and ancient copper coins. "Of course, the most terrible thing is that these guys don't even let go of stone tablets, and there are also stone men, like things his mother has never seen before. They want whatever they see. They are even worse than robbers!" Jia Zhuangyuan said Here, I smiled and said: "I once met a yellow-haired man who was chattering, and I didn't understand. They carried a stone tablet and left, but left some valuable things. I really don't understand these foreigners. Is there something wrong with your brain?"

First Young Master Liu knew that the stele must have important cultural value, otherwise the gringo wouldn't have taken so much effort to lift a stone away. "The most terrifying thing is us Chinese. The former Tibetan warlords also had cavalry companies, which carried explosives to rob tombs everywhere, and then bought foreign guns and cannons to expand the army. In case Tibet was occupied by other warlords, their own local emperors could not do it." Senior Jia said with some concern, "So when we went, we encountered it once. Fortunately, we dodged quickly, otherwise we would have been shot ghosts before we reached the ancient city."

To be honest, when I was fighting, I was most afraid of encountering warlords. At that time, I couldn’t tell. Since ancient times, many warlords have used various banners to rob graves, make money from dead people, and then buy weapons.The most famous one is Sun Dianying, who dug up the tombs of Qianlong's father and Cixi's bastard in the name of military exercises, and made a fortune.When the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty, Emperor Xuantong abdicated, Dongling still had mausoleum guards. All affairs of the mausoleum.But Banner Soldiers were only able to do a couple of good things in his mother's Qing Dynasty. When they met Sun Dianying, wouldn't they even have no capital to earn their living?

"However..." Jia Zhuangyuan changed his tone and said, "Those cavalry companies in Tibet were able to be bullish for two days at the beginning. Later, a cavalry company went out to search for the big tomb. In the depths, no one went back, and even a horse could not be found. Anyway, no one was alive, and no corpse was seen after death. Later, the warlords lived much more safely, and went to other roads to find ways to gather food and grass. This is good for us. Good!" After finishing the last thing, everyone decided to set off immediately. Except for a few pieces of clothes, Fan Debiao didn't ask everyone to bring them. He said that he would arrange the necessary things after he went to Tibet, so don't worry.Immediately, young master Liu, Fan Debiao, cabbage caterpillar, Jia Zhuangyuan, and Yang Weidong, a scout sent by the People's Liberation Army, rushed to the city closest to the airport.

Along the way, Jia Zhuangyuan had no expression on his face, just like a piece of wood, with his hands in his trouser pockets all the time, and a small leather cap specially used for traitors in the old society on his head, giving people a very strange feeling. Comfortable mystery. From Shaanxi to Tibet, it spans almost half of China.It is impractical to talk about making cars. Besides, everyone has a heavy burden, so airplanes are almost the only choice now. Fortunately, due to the government's relationship, the difficult-to-buy air ticket was resolved smoothly.And also allocated a special class cabin for everyone.This made Young Master Liu, who had never been on a plane, couldn't help being ecstatic. He touched the left side, looked at the right side, and couldn't control himself for a while.

Fan Debiao is an old man. He has traveled with the big grasshopper all these years, and at least he has accumulated some accumulation. At this moment, he is passing out a stack of copies to everyone. All of them are about Tibet's human geography, customs and customs. introduce. "Everyone, before you arrive at your destination, you must read these things carefully. Tibetans have many customs and are very particular about them. In addition, their folk customs are tough, and they are all very thick. If you don't pay attention, you will violate their taboos." , that would be difficult!"

Hearing what Fan Debiao said, Young Master Liu began to read the materials in his hand carefully.Tibetans do have many rules, which dazzled him.If you sit indoors, you should sit cross-legged, not with your legs straight, with the soles of your feet facing people, and not looking around.To accept a gift, you need to accept it with both hands.When you eat, you have to be full of food, bite without making a sound, and drink without making a sound.When drinking butter tea, the host pours the tea, and the guests can only take it and drink it when the host holds it in front of them with both hands.

In his impression, Tibetans generally have a heterogeneous image that is close to barbarians. Galloping horses, animal skin jackets, horned knives, and roasted yak meat are all characteristics of Tibetans.To be honest, Young Master Liu really didn't know much about dealing with such a race, so he took it very seriously. By the time the plane landed, he had basically learned everything by heart. Yang Weidong chatted with Fan Debiao and cabbage caterpillar one after another, and the two talked very harmoniously.Only Jia Zhuangyuan, leaning against a rather lonely corner, slowly unfolded the Hundred Tomb Scrolls, scrutinizing them over and over again, for fear of missing some insignificant details that could affect the overall situation.

With the warm and sweet voice of the airline customer service, the plane landed steadily in Lhasa, Tibet.After several hours on the plane, everyone was already very sleepy. Fan Debiao was very popular here, and he had a good relationship with him. With just one phone call, he booked a few rooms in a nearby holiday hotel. Although it was his first time to come to this spectacular place, Everyone couldn't stand the eyelids of the fight, and they didn't say much. As soon as they carried the package into the room with their front feet, they fell asleep on their back feet. In the early morning of the next day, everyone got up early, looked at their spirits, and slept well.Fan Debiao asked everyone to stay here for a day, and wait until the equipment and daily necessities he ordered arrived, and it would not be too late to hurry.Besides, the terrain in Tibet is complicated, and some things are really not easy to see without an experienced guide.

As the saying goes, sharpening a knife is not the same as chopping firewood by mistake, Young Master Liu nodded after turning his head slightly. It just so happened that at the moment of the joints, each of them is in good spirits, and he is not a person who can sit still. Instead of staying in a hotel for a day, it is better to go outside and take a look at the scenery. Thinking of this, he told everyone what he thought. Fan Debiao is not a person who can be idle, cabbage caterpillar is also a typical slut, Yang Weidong is a well-behaved person, but he has never been to Tibet, and he wants to be full eyesight.Young Master Liu was not sure about Jia Zhuangyuan alone, but he didn't seem to care about it. Once Young Master Liu said it, he agreed without caring. The Holiday Hotel is close to Hongshan. Everyone really doesn't know where Hongshan is.But when it comes to a building on Red Mountain, it is like thunder.It is nothing but the Potala Palace. It is said that the construction of the Potala Palace is inseparable from the thirty-second generation Zanpu Songtsen Gampo of Tubo.According to legend, 1300 years ago, at the beginning of the 7th century AD, after Songtsan Gampo moved his capital to Lhasa, in order to marry Princess Wencheng of the Tang Dynasty, he specially built three nine-story buildings with a total of 1,000 palaces on the Red Mountain, named Potala. palace. The Potala Palace is a stone and wood structure palace as a whole, the outer wall is two meters thick, and the foundation is directly buried in the rock formation.The walls are all built of granite, with a height of tens of meters. Iron juice is poured in the middle for reinforcement at intervals, which improves the earthquake resistance of the wall and makes it firm and stable.The roof and window eaves are made of wood, the cornices are overhanging, the corners are raised, the copper tiles are gilded, and the gilt sutra pillars, vases, scorpions and golden-winged crows are used, and the ridges are decorated.The shining roof adopts the Xieshan style and Cuanjian style, which has the architectural style of the Han Dynasty.The walls under the eaves are decorated with gilt and copper ornaments, all of which are Buddhist instruments and eight treasures, with a strong Tibetan Buddhist color.The columns and beams are covered with bright colored paintings and gorgeous carvings.On one side of the building complex is the bedroom of the Tibetan king, with a pagoda on the top of the middle palace, and the harem on the other side.In the autumn season, the Potala Palace is pink and white, and it stands on the Red Mountain and looks more holy and majestic. Therefore, Tibetans call it the "white palace". "It's really spectacular!" First Young Master Liu raised his head, looked at the buildings rising and falling in the distance, and sighed endlessly. "Debiao, this Potala Palace, can I go in and have a look?" Fan Debiao shook his head: "If you say you came to Tibet, it would be a waste of time not to visit the Potala Palace. But today I really can't get in." "Really? Isn't this a tourist attraction?" Hearing what he said, Young Master Liu was somewhat surprised. He had never seen a tourist attraction that didn't make money. "Today is a religious festival for Tibetans, and they all go in to worship, so it is not open to us tourists." Fan Debiao explained helplessly. "Oh, that's how it is!" Young Master Liu nodded in dismay, and the cabbage caterpillar and Yang Weidong also lost interest. "How about this?!" Fan Debiao slapped his head: "How about I take you to the Tibetan market? Today should be more lively than usual, no matter how far or near, almost everyone is here to join in the fun." "Fun?" First Major Liu cast his eyes on Fan Debiao suspiciously. "Haha, I don't know if you haven't been here before." Fan Debiao grinned and said, "Tibetans are hospitable and hospitable. Go shopping and you will be satisfied. Maybe there is another girl who has fallen in love with you." "You fell in love with me, are you kidding me?" First Young Master Liu was a little dumbfounded. "That's not certain. The customs here are relatively open. It's common for a girl to show her affection to a boy she loves during festivals. How about it, brother, is spring in your heart?" Fan Debiao squeezed his eyes, His mind was full of ridicule. "Go, go, go, fat man. Get out of here." Seeing Yang Weidong and the others behind him all laughing, Young Master Liu's cheeks flushed with embarrassment. "Come on, don't pretend to be arrogant." Fan Debiao curled his lips: "Who doesn't know that you have an affair with my boss, that beautiful Wang..." But halfway through the conversation, Fan Debiao immediately shut up, because he obviously saw Young Master Liu become gloomy. "Young master..." Fan der Biao tugged at the corner of his clothes. "Young Master..." Seeing that Young Master Liu didn't say a word, Fan Debiao became anxious. I was talking too fast just now, and I slipped my mouth.Although it was unintentional, it hit Young Master Liu's sore spot. After all, Uncle Diao and Faye Wong are still alive and dead! "Young master, don't worry, Feifei is a lucky woman, she will be fine, besides, isn't there uncle Diao around? With him around, what are you afraid of?" Fan Debiao comforted. "Alas!" First Young Master Liu sighed, "The world is unpredictable. Even Jackson, Zhong Kui and the others died in that mysterious place for no apparent reason." Thinking of the horrible altar ruins in the photo, his heart trembled suddenly.These days, whenever he thinks of this scene, he always feels that there is a pair of eyes watching him from behind, like a shadow.The lingering shadow also enveloped him all the time, getting tighter and tighter, almost breathless. Could it be that there is really a mysterious past in this place, waiting for a predestined person like me to uncover it in person? In other words, his fate has long been doomed, and one day, at a certain moment, like Jackson and the others, he will become the sacrifice of the mastermind behind the scenes? Also, how did the big grasshopper die, and the complications of his premature aging, why is the situation exactly the same as that of the clay figurine Zhang, the only difference is that the clay figurine Zhang desperately got the antidote: the wax pill.But the big grasshopper had bad luck and died unexpectedly. "Taiping Qingling Book", this thing that haunts me every day and night like a dream, what is hidden behind it? Why did he only choose himself? Uncle Diao's sharp-mouthed monkey-cheeked old man is actually a master who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside. He has always been very kind to himself.And Wang Feifei, that beautiful and lovely girl, has always had a faint affection between me and her. It's a pity that I haven't said to Uncle Diao: Thank you, old man. I haven't said to Wang Feifei yet: Feifei, I like you. They just disappeared... disappeared into this world. Shaking his heavy head, First Young Master Liu's thoughts were in a mess, and he was almost dizzy. If it wasn't for the cabbage caterpillar next to him, he must have lost his balance and rolled down the mountainside. "Brother, are you okay?" Cabbage caterpillar clenched Young Master Liu's shoulders, frowning and said. "No...it's okay." First Young Master Liu struggled and let go.But looking at his face, he always looked sluggish. Cabbage caterpillar gave Fan Debiao a blank look, obviously he was quite prejudiced against this fat man who spared everyone's interest. At this time, Jia Zhuangyuan, who had always been taciturn, said, "Xiao Fan, the Uncle Diao you mentioned just now is very powerful?" "That's it!" Hearing that Jia Zhuangyuan was skeptical, Fan Debiao immediately became unhappy. "Uncle Diao, I don't know much about it. But I know that he is second to none in Hong Kong's tomb robbery industry. Even our boss respects him. He helped us a lot in the last expedition." "Oh?" Jia Zhuangyuan seemed to remember something: "Do you know the name of this old Mr. Diao?" "The savage is the cunning, the venerable virtue, the one, the two, the three, the four, the five, the one, the one with virtue." "Diao Deyi?" After hearing Fan Debiao's words, Jia Zhuangyuan's complexion changed slightly, his eyes narrowed, as if he was thinking about something. "Why, senior, do you know Mr. Diao?" Fan Debiao asked in surprise. "Hehe" Jia Zhuangyuan smiled for the first time, and touched the silver beard under his chin: "It's more than just acquaintance! Back then, Lao Diao, Sima and I were as close as brothers!" Speaking of this, he let out a long sigh: "It's a pity that after Nanhai parted, brother Sima was buried in the demon cave, and everyone dispersed. Unexpectedly, Lao Diao is still doing this job today!" "Oh, so that's how it is!" Fan Debiao became excited immediately: "Mr. Diao has not been in this business all the time. He opened an antique Fengshui shop by himself, but this time, he came out again under special circumstances." "You said, will something happen if Mr. Diao takes my female boss?" "I'm more than 60% sure that nothing will happen!" Jia Zhuangyuan smiled and said: "Old Diao's skill is obvious to all. In some respects, I can't match it. As long as it is not a catastrophe, he You can definitely retreat completely. So, just put your mind at ease!" With Jia Zhuangyuan's guarantee, the sense of oppression among the crowd was instantly relaxed, and even the barrier with Jia Zhuangyuan was slowly released. Especially Fan Debiao, who has long coaxed this old man into the sky.After persuading First Young Master Liu to the point that it was almost done, everyone continued on their way, trying to see this fabled bustling market as soon as possible.
