Live Jianbao: Baoyou, you are very wrong

Chapter 56 Can the unearthed Buddha statue still be worshipped?
What is there to see about this Buddha statue?

The treasure friends took a rough look at the first glance.

The Buddha statue has a typical meat bun, a dot between the eyebrows, and holds a small bottle with folded hands in front of him.The entire Buddha statue sits cross-legged on a lotus platform.

The red, green and white colors are harmonious, and the face is kind, which makes people feel calm when looking at it.

"Is it from the Tang Dynasty?"

"Looks like Tang Sancai?"

"I've seen something similar in a museum, it should be Tang Sancai."

Friends are discussing.

Brother Xun Gu also said firmly.

"Master Ning, I can see this clearly, it is definitely Tang Sancai!"

"If this is wrong, I will eat this Buddha statue!"

Ning Fan looked at the comments and nodded, without saying anything, and asked about the origin of the Buddha statue Baoyou.

As soon as a reward floated by, Buddha Statue Baoyou spoke.

"Master Ning, this thing is handed down from our family's ancestors, and it has been kept at home for a long time. I would like to ask you to see if it is right."

"Something is right, it's just not right."

"Ok?"

The treasure friends were all stunned when they heard this.

What is right, but wrong?They didn't see any problem with this Buddha statue!
It's not the bowl from the 63rd year of Qianlong's reign just now, so what's wrong with it?
The buddha statue treasure friend opened his eyes wide and wanted to ask clearly.

"Baoyou, you said that this thing was passed down from your ancestors, I have a question."

"Did your ancestors do any folk archaeological work?"

See also Folk Archeology!

Baoyou all changed their faces.

Could it be that this thing came out of the tomb?

Ning Fan sighed.

"Baoyou, you have bad eyesight, you can see that this is the authentic Tang Sancai."

"But you have good eyesight, and you can't see such obvious traces of being buried in the soil."

"There are basically only two channels for the Buddha statues of the Tang Dynasty to be handed down to the present."

"One is a grotto statue, and the other is a burial object in a tomb. Baoyou, your Buddha statue belongs to the second type."

"Looking at the shape, you can clearly see that this is something from the mid-Tang Dynasty. The shape is well-proportioned, the structure is reasonable, the spiral bun and the right cassock, and the lotus platform at the base has an octagon."

"But you should pay attention to the color on this Buddha statue. There are obvious traces of peeling off, and there is also a ring of color on the lotus platform at the bottom. This is the trace that will only appear in a copper Buddhist altar."

"It's impossible to form such a color in hundreds of years."

"But what does this have to do with being right?"

"Baoyou, haven't you heard a sentence? Unearthed Buddha statues cannot be enshrined!"

"Yes, there is such a saying!"

Everyone looked at the head of the speaker and laughed and joked.

"The doctor finished his morning class so soon?"

"Don't you want to graduate if you don't wait to write a thesis?"

"Watch Master Ning's live broadcast after class, it seems that I am a true fan!"

Dr. Shaffer's portrait of a monk and doctor is particularly conspicuous.

He didn't get angry when he saw the crowd teasing, he smiled slightly and recited the Buddha's name.

"Almsgiver, learning Buddhism pays attention to a predestined relationship. I just went to the morning class when my thoughts came to me. After reading the Shurangama Sutra, my thoughts came again, so I watched Master Ning's live broadcast."

"This is the combination of fate and life."

"Amitabha!"

The friends of Bao couldn't refute what they said.

Ning Fan smiled and asked back.

"Friend Xia Fu, if you fail to graduate with a Ph.D., do you think it's all due to fate, or should you admit your mistake to your supervisor and say that you are not good at studying?"

"Absolutely!"

The barrage in the live broadcast room completely swiped the screen.

No one expected that Ning Fan could ask such tricky questions.

This is the hardcore smacking, right?
When Baoyou Xia Fu heard the words, his face became embarrassed, and after a long while, he spoke again.

"The poor monk will not let this happen."

"Ahem, let's talk about the Buddha statue of the benefactor first!"

The treasure friends let go of Dr. Shafer with a smile, looked at the Buddha statue, and wanted to hear why this thing was wrong.

It actually made both Ning Fan and Dr. Shaffer say that.

"All benefactors, in fact, the purpose of inviting Buddha statues is to ask for peace of mind, so that someone can protect you in times of danger."

"In our Buddhist school, this is called blocking evil spirits or accepting karma."

"However, such Buddha statues with unknown origins are generally not recommended for enshrining."

"Because you don't know who has enshrined this, whether you have helped others to block evil spirits, and have received karma."

"If there is, this Buddha statue can still be enshrined, but the effect is not good."

"It's like the traditional saying of the Xia Kingdom, jade nourishes people, and people nourish jade, but after the jade is broken, it can't prevent disasters."

"Also, you don't know who invited this Buddha statue. Sometimes if you don't have enough life, you can't afford this Buddha statue."

"I've heard of people doing bad things before, insisting on making offerings to Buddha statues to protect their safety. As a result, there was a big fire, and the whole family was burned to the ground. Only the Buddha statues were intact."

"Therefore, such unearthed Buddha statues are not recommended for personal worship."

"Then how should we deal with it?"

After hearing this, the treasure friends inquired further.

"You can find a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters to bury the Buddha statue deep, and recite a piece of "Heart Sutra" or something."

"If you find it troublesome, you can send it to the local temple to explain the situation and let the temple accept the offering."

After Dr. Shaffer finished speaking, everyone looked at Ning Fan and waited for him to speak.

"I don't pay that much attention, just one sentence."

"Aren't you panicking at home for the Buddha statues that are buried with others?"

"Accompany... the funeral objects?"

The treasure friends trembled when they heard this, and felt a little panicked when they saw the Buddha statue for no reason.

Baoyou Buddha himself also turned blue, and asked what was going on in a trembling voice.

"Baoyou, I just asked you whether your ancestors did folk archaeological work, but you didn't respond."

"This Buddha statue is from the middle of the Tang Dynasty. Judging from the degree of oxidation of the color, it should have been unearthed in the middle of the Qing Dynasty."

"Your accent tends to be near Guangdong Province, where Buddhism has not been popular since ancient times."

"There is a high probability that such a thing can be stolen from another place."

"As for where it came from, judging by the style and image of this Buddha statue, it should be a Tang tomb near the Longmen Grottoes in Dongdu."

"Although it can be kept in your hands, for the sake of safety, I advise you to properly dispose of this thing as soon as possible."

"It's not good to stay at home anyway, it's considered buying and selling cultural relics."

"Words of offering."

"Although what Xiaofu Baoyou said is good, I have a better way."

"any solution?"

The audience in the live broadcast room and Dr. Schafer were looking forward to Ning Fan's answer.

"Submit it to your local cultural relics protection department, and donate it as a cultural relic to be exhibited. Don't say that the blessing is yours, and the pennant and bonus are also yours!"

"Wouldn't it be delicious to eat a bowl of wet fried beef at that time?"

Friends of the treasures just want to say one thing when they hear this, wonderful!

Buddha Buddha Baoyou laughed and nodded twice when he heard the words, and hurriedly went offline.

"Master Ning, do you think he will really donate this?"

The treasure friends asked Ning Fan for the answer.

"It's hard to say, it depends on whether Baoyou wants money or life!"

"Can this really kill you?"

The treasure friends were all surprised, staring at the screen for a long while speechless.
