    ?——

    "Yeah?"

    Wang Xiaoxiao asked a little casually.

    ——"According to the local people: it is 21 meters high and weighs 60 tons. There are 1.24 million mantras and six-character mantras hidden in the prayer wheel. There are also 16 tons of various Buddhist treasures. The body of the prayer wheel is pure copper gilt  Gold, the wall of the tube is embossed with the four great Bodhisattvas, the Three Parallel Rivers, the Eight Treasures of Buddhism, and 56 national unity patterns. The bottom of the prayer wheel is equipped with a giant bearing, which requires the joint efforts of seven adults to turn."

    Chu Lihua truthfully answered the information from the Internet.

    It's just that Wang Xiaoxiao didn't speak for a long time after listening, and Chu Lihua didn't know if she said something wrong.

    Wang Xiaoxiao, who was silent for a while, put her bag on her back and went out.

    It's not true for Chu Lihua to follow up, nor is it not to follow up.

    Just at this moment, Chu Lihua's cell phone rang, and when she held it in front of her eyes, it was Shang Yun.

    Chu Lihua hesitated for a moment, but still took it.

    ——"Sister Yun"

    —— "Where are you going today? Are you still with that Wang Xiaoxiao?"

    ——"No, she went out alone, and I don't know where she is going yet."

    ——"Then you go to the ancient city of Dukezong and let's meet and discuss."——

    "good."

    Chu Lihua hung up the phone.

    Fortunately, during dinner, Chu Lihua inquired clearly and knew how to get to Dukezong Ancient City from here.

    —— "How did you come here? Didn't you come with Wang Xiaoxiao?"

    As soon as we met, Shang Yun couldn't wait to ask.

    ——"No, we ended up taking a ride together. I originally stayed in the same youth hostel as her, but she went out by herself again."

    Chu Lihua told the truth.

    ——"What a weird person. When I was in Lijiang before, I thought she was very easy to get along with."

    —— "Forget it, let's not talk about her, do you have any plans? Do you want to visit the ancient city?"

    ——"I heard that this place is being rebuilt, so I don't really want to go there. But there are several places you can go to from here. It's like the Pahaila Grassland."

    ——"I haven't heard of this, but I'm still more interested in Pudacuo."

    ——"Pudacuo is China's first national park, located 22 kilometers east of Shangri-La County, Diqing Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan Province. "Pudacuo" in Tibetan means God's help to reach the other side of the lake by boat.  The water quality and air quality of the park have reached the national first-class standard.

    Pudacuo is now mainly composed of Bita Lake and Shudu Lake, with an altitude between 3,500 meters and 4,159 meters. It is an important part of the "Three Parallel Rivers" scenic spot.  The park has geological landforms, lakes and wetlands, forests and meadows, valleys and streams, rare animals and plants, etc., and the original ecological environment is well preserved.  It is indeed a very worthwhile place to visit. It is said that if you do not go to Pudacuo when you come to Shangri-La, then it is equivalent to a visit for nothing.  "

    As expected of a Chinese teacher, Shang Yun can tell in such detail the materials he has read.

    ——"But this place must go to this place in the morning and come back in the afternoon. It will probably take a whole day."

    In fact, Chu Lihua is also very fond of this place.

    ——"Yes, so my plan is to go tomorrow. But I plan to go to Songzanlin Monastery this afternoon. There happens to be a bus passing here, do you want to go?"

    ——"But I don't think you look like a person who likes to burn incense and worship Buddha?"

    ——"Chu Lihua, don't you know that Songzanlin Temple is called the Little Potala Palace? Don't you come out to play without a guide?"

    ——"Hey, do whatever you want."

    Shang Yun really didn't know what to say to Chu Lihua's situation.

    But Chu Lihua began to change the subject, urging Shang Yun to go quickly.

    After arriving, Chu Lihua knew what the Little Potala Palace was, because when standing under the whole building, it really looked more like it, but it was just like it.

    There is an oval-shaped city wall around the temple. The main hall is majestic and gorgeous. The murals in the hall are brightly colored and exquisitely brushed. They mainly describe historical allusions and promote Buddhist teachings.  The two main temples, Zhacang and Jikang, are built at the highest point and occupy the center of the whole temple.  The temple sits north and faces south, and is a five-story Tibetan-style carved building.

    The upper floor of the main hall has gold-plated copper tiles, and the corners of the hall are kissed by beasts and cornices. It also has the architectural style of Han temples. The lower hall has 108 pillars and couplets, representing the auspicious numbers of Buddhism. The hall can accommodate 1,600 people.  The walls on the left and right are "thousand-volume cabinets" for the collection of scriptures. The bronze statue of the fifth Dalai Lama is enshrined in the front seat of the main hall, and the stupas of famous eminent monks are lined up behind them.  On the main building on the top floor, there is a Buddhist scripture hall dedicated to the fifth generation.Lai and the Seventh Dalai Lama Buddha statues, as well as Bayeux scriptures, thangkas, and handed down magical instruments.

    In the same style as Tibetan Buddhist architecture, the Zhacang and Jikang living halls of Songzanlin Temple stand high in the center, surrounded by buildings such as the Eight Great Kangshen and Monk’s Houses.  Set off the tall and majestic main building.

    The main building, Zhacang, means a monastery in Tibetan, and it is a place where monks learn classics and practice teachings.  The apse is dedicated to Tsongkhapa, Maitreya Buddha, and the bronze Buddha of the seventh Dalai Lama. It is more than three feet high and leads directly to the upper floor.

    There are eight Lacan rooms on the middle floor, which are the temple of the gods, the hall of Dharma protection, the Khenpo room, the quiet room, and the dining room.  The living room on the front floor is used for VIP banquets and watching "Qiangmu" (mask) dance.  On the main building on the top floor, there is a jingshe Buddhist hall, which enshrines the Buddha statues of the fifth and seventh Dalai Lamas, as well as Beiye scriptures, thangkas, and handed down magical instruments.

    Just south of the Buddhist hall is the towering Bell and Drum Tower. The drums are played in the morning, noon and dusk to tell the time, and the sound is heard ten miles away.

    The temple architecture gathers the essence of Tibetan religious culture. The buildings are resplendent and magnificent, with colorful gilded copper tiles, horns and beasts kissing cornices in the temple, and the Zhacang Hall is spacious and magnificent.  The murals in the compartment are exquisitely carved.

    Although it is the largest Tibetan Buddhist monastery in Yunnan Province and one of the famous monasteries in Kham, it is also the center of the Yellow Sect in Sichuan and Yunnan. It plays a pivotal role in the entire Tibetan area and is known as the "Little Potala Palace".  "Songzanlin Monastery has a lot of awe.  However, after Chu Lihua was "forcibly donated to charity", nothing remained of her.

    When Chu Lihua and Shangyun walked into the hall, the monk at the door handed Chu Lihua and Shangyun three sticks of incense.

    Chu Lihua took it without thinking too much, and knelt down to worship reverently.

    ——"I think the benefactor is also a predestined person, and it happens that today you can dismantle fate for free. Why don't the benefactor come here and write a birthday horoscope!"

    When Chu Lihua was about to go to the inner hall after going to the village, she was stopped by a monk.

    Chu Lihua was stunned for a moment.

    However, she was still a little wary.

    ——"You really don't want money?"

    ——"Monks don't tell lies."

    Chu Lihua hesitated again, but when she saw that other tourists had already followed the other novice monks, she relaxed.

    Go over and take the yellow paper and start writing.

    ——"Is this birthday on the Gregorian calendar or the lunar calendar?"

    Chu Lihua asked out of habit.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
