Live Jianbao: Baoyou, you are very wrong

Chapter 456 Wu Zetian Believes in Buddhism, Don’t You Know
"Master Ning, do you really have this Buddhist scripture?"

"Buddhist scriptures in 64 languages? This is even better than the Bible!"

"Why do I not quite believe it?"

It is normal for treasure friends to have doubts.

Historically, there have been very few publications in multiple languages. It is normal for the Bible, as the publication with the largest circulation, to have more than 2000 language versions over the years.

But this is a Buddhist scripture in the Han and Tang Dynasties, written in 64 languages?

No matter how you think about it, this is not normal.

Even if Dr. Shaffer seriously said that monks do not tell lies, Baoyou still don't believe it.

"He was right."

Ning Fan nodded, Bao friends really felt relieved.

Yuan Lu couldn't help but frown.

"Expert Ning, do you know this Buddhist scripture?"

"Ah."

Ning Fan didn't hide anything, his eyes fell on the screen.

"This question, shouldn't you ask Xia Fu Baoyou to be more direct?"

"I didn't know the existence of this Buddhist scripture because I happened to know what it looked like and where it was, but Xia Fubaoyou knew it, not just knowing it?"

"What do you mean?"

The treasure friends are a little confused.

What do you know and what don't you know about this?
"The handed down version of "Fang Guangzhuang's Adornment Sutra" was produced by Wu Zetian's order. Many people think that this is a scripture that only appeared in the Tang Dynasty."

"Actually, before the Tang Dynasty, when Buddhism was first introduced to Xia, this scripture had already been circulated in the Western Regions, which is why this scripture has so many languages."

"At that time, there were 36 countries in the Western Regions, and the writing and language of each country had similarities and differences."

"The people who preached the scriptures taught different scriptures in various countries. After translation and rewriting, there will be brand new content. This is why this "Fang Guangzhuang Yanjing" has versions in multiple languages ​​​​in 36 countries in the Western Regions."

"The scripture hidden in the Xuankong Temple is actually a hand-copied version at the back, not the original version."

"I said that, right?"

Although Ning Fan was asking, he didn't mean to ask at all. His eyes fell on the screen, waiting for a definite answer.

Dr. Schaffer swallowed, looking away.

"Master Ning... the poor monk remembered that today's evening class is still..."

"Monks don't lie."

Ning Fan didn't care what Dr. Xia Fu said, and interrupted him with Buddhist gatha before he spoke.

"Master Ning...Master Ning, you are embarrassing the poor monk."

"The poor monk has indeed seen this scripture, but the owner of the scripture promised not to disclose the time and place. He can only say that the poor monk swears by his Buddha nature, and there is absolutely no lie."

At this point, the treasure friends have nothing to say.

Dr. Shaffer has already sworn on the Buddha nature, but it seems that they are not sensible enough.

I can only ask if Ning Fan is real.

"Ah."

Ning Fan nodded.

"This text is indeed the text spoken by Xia Fo Baoyou, and the sword is indeed the wisdom sword of Manjusri Bodhisattva, which is specially used to cut off obsessions and distracting thoughts."

"What he didn't say is that this sword is not for human use."

"That is……"

Inside and outside the live broadcast room, everyone who heard the words trembled for no reason.

Who else can use it if it is not used by humans?
"Buddha statue."

Ning Fan looked at Jin Jian.

"There are generally no clear regulations on the shaping and carving of Buddha statues, as long as they conform to the solemn appearance, solemn expression, and benevolent expression, it is actually fine."

"However, the Buddha statues of the past dynasties generally have subtle differences according to the characteristics of the times and locations. You all know this."

Ning Fan paused for a few seconds, turned up the golden sword, and found several pictures of Manjusri Bodhisattva and sent them.

"Do you see the difference between this golden sword and the one in the picture?"

The treasure friends looked at the picture carefully and frowned.

These statues of Bodhisattvas sent out by Ning Fan do have a sword in their hands, and the materials and shapes are different.

If there is any difference, in simple terms, I am afraid that, except that they are all swords, there is no other place.

"Master Ning, we really didn't see it."

Friends of Bao also learn to bow their heads now.

They may have given the wrong answer to this kind of thing for a long time, so it is better to wait for Ning Fan to explain earlier.

"Regardless of the material, the biggest difference between these swords is their different shapes."

"Han sword, Jin sword, Southern and Northern Dynasty sword, Tang sword...the swords in the hands of each Buddha statue conform to the characteristics of that dynasty, but the characteristics of this sword are a bit wrong."

Now, many treasure friends can see the problem.

Ning Fanfa's Buddha statues all have their origins, and the age can be seen.

As he said, the shape of the sword of wisdom in the hands of Bodhisattvas in several dynasties is different.

The most obvious is the golden sword in front of him.

There is no age characteristic at all, it looks like the characteristics of swords from several dynasties have been integrated.

The sword grip of the magic weapon of the Xueyu Tantric School, and the lotus sword grid of Xia Chuan Buddhism, the sword body has the shadow of the eight-sided Han sword, and there are some traces of the knife on the tip of the blade.

"This, why does it get weirder the more you look at it?"

The treasure friends shook their heads, their eyes full of puzzlement.

Do not understand!
There is nothing to hide in front of Master Ning, if you don't understand, you don't understand.

Ning Fan nodded.

"It's normal if you don't recognize it. This Wisdom Sword is actually a gift for an old acquaintance. Unfortunately, if it is not delivered, there will never be a chance."

"Who?"

Hearing old acquaintances, Bao friends carefully checked the celebrities identified in Ning Fan's live broadcast room, and did not expect anyone to use this thing.

"Wu Zetian."

"This sword of wisdom should have been sent to Wu Zetian together with that scripture."

"However, there was an accident. Huijian stayed in Loulan Kingdom, and only the scriptures were sent there. Empress Wu Zetian had someone re-translate and make a new scripture."

"As for the sword of wisdom, it is permanently buried under the yellow sand, just like what you see now."

All barrages are silent.

They really can't digest this matter, this golden sword is actually Wu Zetian's thing?
"Well, Wu Zetian believed in Buddhism, don't you know? When she was in power, the state religion of the Tang Dynasty was Buddhism."

"Before that, in April of the third year of Xianheng, Wu Zetian gave [-] yuan of powder money to help monks carve the Lushena Buddha in the Longmen Grottoes."

"After the year of Shenlong, Buddhist temples and temples were built extensively. There are also scriptures at that time. The four volumes of "Dayun Jing" claim that Wu Zetian is the incarnation of Maitreya Buddha."

"These things, if not a persistent believer, I'm afraid I can't do it."

The treasure friends nodded mechanically, their brains completely empty.

These things, they didn't even dare to think about it before.

It is too shocking that there are things belonging to Wu Zetian hidden in the National Treasure Chamber of Loulan Kingdom.

Everyone stared at the screen, not knowing what to say.

Ning Fan didn't explain anything more about this thing.

After all, many things in history cannot be easily explained clearly. Some things are better for ordinary treasure friends not to know.

"This thing will be sent to the Palace Museum. Interested friends can go and check it after the repair and inspection are completed."

After Ning Fan finished speaking, he turned his head and looked at other things.

The appearance of Wu Zetian's Huijian is a happy event, and it depends on whether this luck can be preserved for a longer period of time.
