golden escape

Seeing Fatty Liu staring at this place all the time, Fang You couldn't help but smile helplessly, then activated the escape technique, and looked around. After a long while, he finally confirmed that it was either the aura emanating from the things next to him, or the aura in his hand. The spiritual energy generated in the small pottery Buddha statue.

Fang You held the Buddha statue and weighed it lightly. Most pottery Buddha statues are hollow, but this Buddha statue is solid from its shape. With his keen sense, he knew the weight of the Buddha statue. Something is clearly wrong.

Since this aura is not emanating from this dilapidated Buddha statue, there is only one possibility. There is another mystery in this Buddha statue.

There were frequent wars in ancient times. In order to preserve their favorite treasures, some people used various methods, or changed their appearance, or hid them in other objects. Fang You found them in Li Biao shop. This is exactly the case with the Venus Dragon Inkstone.

If he hadn't met Uncle Tie, it would be a question of whether Fang You would be able to discover the Venus Dragon Inkstone in his lifetime. No one would have thought that such a precious inkstone would be hidden in a plain blue city brick.

Fang You originally wanted to use escapism to check what was going on with this Buddha statue, but Fatty Liu's eyes were fixed on it all the time, and there was no other blocking object in the middle of his current position, so Fatty Liu could do it without hindrance. Looking at him transparently.

Fatty Liu must be too careful, Fang You smiled helplessly, this is the biggest disadvantage of being famous, you can't do whatever you want.

I would rather not use escapism now, nor risk being discovered by Fatty Liu. Anyway, sooner or later this object will be my own, but it will be a matter of a little later, but if Fatty Liu finds out, it will be over, maybe I will do it again A lifelong guinea pig, of course, he escaped by using escapism, but the world is so big that no one can catch him, but such a life is too sad.

As for Fatty Liu, although he was talking to Xu Mengyun, his small eyes kept staring at Fang You. Picked away.

Hearing Fang You telling her to make up her own mind, Xu Mengyun couldn't help but smiled, and then nodded, "Boss Liu, let's say [-]."

Fatty Liu showed a smile on his face. Although the price he paid for this small Ming Yongle blue and white bowl was already very high in this antique city, but at the auction, he could earn at least tens of thousands of yuan. Good luck 10,000+ is not a problem, it is really the fineness and appearance of this small blue and white bowl.

What's more, if the price given is too low, with Fang You's knowledge, how can he not know the market price? When this kid gets angry, he might have to scrap a few good things. There are money inside and out, so of course he chooses to lose less.

Then, Fatty Liu took out a check book from his pocket, drew out [-] yuan, and handed it to Xu Mengyun.

This check made Xiao Liuzi a little excited. He looked at Fang You with a look of admiration. After saying a few words, the boss easily gave in and raised the price.

Up to now, the price has risen directly from [-] to [-], which made Xiao Liuzi really excited. He was just a little angry at the beginning, and wanted to find Fang You to try it out. He didn't expect this helper to be so powerful.

Dashan smiled honestly, he can eat enough steamed buns when he goes back.

Xu Mengyun took the check lightly, and Fatty Liu put the small blue and white bowl into the counter next to him in an instant, and rushed towards Fang You like a gust of wind.

Coming to Fang You's side, seeing him looking at a dilapidated Buddha statue, Fatty Liu couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and said with a smile on his face: "Why, Brother Feilong, I've taken a fancy to this Buddha statue, tell me, I It will be delivered directly to you."

Fang You smiled, "Fatty Liu, that's what you said, don't regret it, haven't you seen that this Buddha statue looks very harmonious as a whole?" Fatty Liu is not only a bit snobbish, but generally speaking, he is still very good of.

Fatty Liu squinted his small eyes, looked at it casually, but smiled, "How could I regret it, this Buddha statue is not worth a lot, and it's nothing to give it to you." He has also studied this Buddha statue, and even bought it I tapped it with my fingers, and it doesn't look like it's hollow enough to hide anything inside. It must be a solid Buddha statue.

He is a little suspicious now, this Buddha statue is just a cover for Fang You, this kid must have another goal, if I buy you one thing, you have to give me two cheap ones, this kind of trick has been played by antique collectors It's rotten, but there are still people who enjoy it and try it again and again. The reason is that the appearance of those antiques given away is really rubbish.

Fang You picked a rotten Buddha statue at the beginning. I'm afraid he wanted to lower his vigilance, so he must not be fooled.

Fang You smiled, looked at the Buddha statue, and said softly in his heart, Buddha statue, Buddha statue, since Fatty Liu doesn't cherish you, then you and I will have it, "Boss Liu, I can't ask for this for nothing. It's a good thing you still run an antique shop, have you forgotten even this little thing?"

"Hey, brother Feilong, you really think this will be a treasure, okay, since you want it, then take two hundred and treat it as a meal money for me." Fatty Liu said pretendingly, but it was Staring at Fang You closely, wondering if he would let him give something to him.

Fang You pointed at the Buddha statue helplessly, "Boss Liu, do you think this Buddha statue is worth two hundred?" The greatest joy lies in the price. Even if it is one yuan cheaper, it is still profitable. If you pick up the leaks, the lower the price, the better.

Fatty Liu cried and said, "Brother Feilong, just for this Buddha statue, 200 yuan is already very low. I said just now that you would give it away for nothing. You don't want it. Now 200 yuan is too high for you. You can give it as much as you want. I will give it to you." do not care."

Seeing Fatty Liu like this, Fang You couldn't help but smiled, and took out two red tickets from his pocket, "See what makes you sad, isn't it just a meal fee, here it is."

Fatty Liu accepted the money unceremoniously, and then looked at Fang You worriedly, "Brother Feilong, we've picked things out, let's go drink tea."

Fang You chuckled, looked at Fatty Liu and said, "Boss Liu, by the way, I want to participate in your Bao Debao event. I don't know if it will work."

"Cough, brother Feilong, just let me go. I have prepared the best Dahongpao over there, waiting for you." Arm, tightly hugging Fang You, pulling Fang You to the edge of the table.

Fang You moved his arm slightly, then retracted it, and suppressed the subconscious counterattack in his heart. If Fatty Liu was an enemy, even a fat man like him, who weighed three to four hundred catties, would have already been under Fang You's attack. Turned into a human handjob and was thrown out.

Fang You, who can control the gray air flow, can kick a person into the door panel with one kick. With this kind of strength, it is not a problem to throw a big fat man away.

Taking advantage of this chaotic opportunity, Fang You brought the Buddha statue in front of his eyes, then activated the escape technique, observed it, and took it out again in an instant.

But just this time, Fang You stayed in the past, the thick yellow color almost reached the edge of green, which was more intense than the yellow light in Jun kiln and Ru kiln porcelain he discovered.

Not only that, but the overall shape of the yellow light is exactly the same as the Buddha statue outside, as if it is a miniature version of the Buddha statue outside. Is this also a Buddha statue inside? Fang You was suddenly shocked.

No wonder there is no way to see if there is anything inside from the outside. It turns out that the Buddha statue inside is closely connected with the Buddha statue on the outside.

It's just that I can see through the objects inside, so this has already explained that the miniature version of the Buddha statue inside is also made of earth, otherwise, my earth escape technique can't turn it into nothingness at all.

Could it be that there is also a pottery Buddha statue inside? Fang You couldn't help being a little puzzled. Just when he was about to look at it again, he found that his body, which had been dragged all the time, stopped.

Unable to recover, he saw Fatty Liu's exhausted panting expression, "Brother Feilong, you are so ruthless, you forced me to drag you here without even using any strength."

Fang You smiled helplessly. He didn't need any strength at all. He was clearly caught in the yellow light of the Buddha statue. He didn't have much expectations for the things in the Buddha statue, but it was stronger than Jun Kiln. The yellow color can explain that the things inside this Buddha statue have been seen in the east and west of the Song Dynasty, including jade pendants, but even the earliest antiques from the period of the founding emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty after the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms are only thick yellow. There will be no signs of approaching the green edge.

This already shows that the age of this Buddha statue may have reached the Tang Dynasty.

Can the pottery Buddha statues of the Tang Dynasty be well preserved to this day? Fang You couldn't help but wondered in his heart. Seeing the table in front of him, he sat down involuntarily, frowning and thinking.

Seeing Fang You sitting down, Liu fattened and poured tea with a smile all over his face. The faint tea fragrance could not help rushing towards his face, "Brother Feilong, this is the top-quality Dahongpao that I have treasured for many years. Please taste it, hehe , you guys should have a drink too."

Smelling the fragrance of the tea, and looking at the exquisite teapot in the hands of the boss, Xu Mengyun was a little surprised. What kind of identity is this young man, who can actually work for the owner of an antique shop to pour tea himself, smiling all over his face, for fear of neglecting him? Like.

Fang You gently put the Buddha statue on the table, then picked up the teacup, and looked at the tea liquid inside. It was light yellow, but there were some impurities. It was different from the big red tea that Ye Yuqing brought out in Pingzhou Jieshi last time. Compared with the gown, it is slightly inferior.

Smelling the aroma coming out of the teacup, Fang You showed a peaceful smile, and then took a sip, feeling refreshed immediately. Different, it can make people feel refreshed, "Boss Liu, let me use the magnifying glass."

When he was about to look for an opportunity to check out the Buddha statue, Fang You suddenly found the magnifying glass on the table, smiled, picked up the Buddha statue, and pretended to observe the whole Buddha statue.

Seeing Fang You holding a magnifying glass and carefully observing the movements of the Buddha statue, Fatty Liu chuckled, a little indifferently, "Brother Feilong, hehe, I thought you would throw this Buddha statue away under such violent movements just now, Unexpectedly, you still hold it in your hand, hehe, is this Buddha statue so important?"

Fang You smiled. Just as he was about to answer, he saw a line of indistinct small characters at the bottom of the Buddha statue, Pharmacist Liuliguang Tathagata.

This made him even more puzzled. Although the appearance of this Buddha statue is dilapidated, Fang You still knows a thing or two about the prototype of this Buddha statue, but the person represented by this Buddha statue can be said to be a household name for its greatness.

As for the Buddhist culture, Mr. Chu also gave him a key explanation, because Buddhism was introduced to China from the Silk Road in the Western Han Dynasty, and it began to prosper, and it occupied an important position in all Chinese dynasties. Among the antiques, a large part of them are all kinds of Buddha statues, most of which are bronze Buddha statues, and there are also a few made of ceramics. It can be seen that the influence of Buddhism in China is extremely far-reaching.

The basic origin of Buddhism, and the major Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in its religion, are not only carefully explained by Mr. Chu, but also the knowledge brought to Fang You by various mythological TV series.

The most representative one is probably Journey to the West, in which Avalokitesvara, Maitreya Buddha and the like are all Buddhist figures familiar to everyone.

Pharmacist Liuliguang Tathagata, also known as Pharmacist Buddha, occupies an important position in Buddhism. In Buddhism, there are three horizontal Buddhas and vertical three Buddhas. The horizontal three Buddhas are divided into Eastern Medicine Buddha and Oriental Medicine Buddha. Buddha Sakyamuni in the center, Buddha Amitabha in the west, and the Buddhas of the third generation, divided by time, are divided into the ancient Buddha who burned the lamp in the past, the Buddha Buddha who is now Shakyamuni, and the Buddha Maitreya in the future.

It can be seen that the status of the Medicine Buddha Buddha is high, but what puzzles Fang You is that the prototype of the Buddha statue in his hand is not the Medicine Buddha Buddha at all. Judging from the handwriting, it is definitely not engraved in modern times, but the person who made and owned the Buddha statue. Most people are very superstitious about Buddhism. The figure represented by the Buddha statue in Fang You's hand is more familiar to ordinary people than Medicine Buddha.

Buddhist believers should not fail to recognize this Buddha statue, so why do you want to do such a thing that the donkey's head is wrong with the horse's mouth? Fang You carefully looked at the small words, and said that the pharmacist Liuliguang Tathagata smiled, as if Think of something.

So, Fang You couldn't help but put the magnifying glass close to his eyes, and then watched carefully.

Still only for an instant, Fang You activated the escape technique, ignored the light, and clearly observed the situation of the miniature Buddha statue inside, the shock flashed across his face, he pretended to observe the whole Buddha statue as if nothing had happened, and his heart But the shock never receded for a long time.

Contrary to what he guessed, the Buddha statue inside is not made of pottery, but a very beautiful object. It was this object that shocked him. This object looks like jade but not jade, both like jade and not like jade Fang You looked at it, and some of them had the luster of glass jadeite, and the overall appearance was even more beautiful than jadeite.

Not only the material of this Buddha statue, but more importantly, the person represented by this Buddha statue is generally the same as the small characters engraved on the Buddha statue outside.

With such an obvious reminder, most people will probably think like Fatty Liu that someone else wrote it wrong. It was only after reading it that Fang You really discovered that what is sometimes overlooked by others is the most important part of it. .

But the material inside made Fang You a little puzzled. Suddenly, he thought of the great wish made by Medicine Buddha, and suddenly smiled knowingly.

If his predictions are correct, he may already know the material of the Buddha statue that looks like jade but not jade.

"Hehe, my mother believes in Buddhism. It may not be important to you, but to Buddhist believers, this Buddha statue is extremely important. Boss Liu, do you know who is the Buddhist figure who got this Buddha statue here?" Fang You was in a very happy mood immediately after writing small characters, and answered Fatty Liu's question with a smile.

Fatty Liu smiled triumphantly, "Brother Feilong, you can't trouble me. I can't match your eyesight on antiques, but I may study Buddhism deeper than you, let alone this well-known figure. This Buddha statue is obviously Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva."

Fang You smiled, "Boss Liu, do you know the difference between Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva and other Bodhisattvas?"

Hearing Fang You's question, Fatty Liu laughed, "Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's great ambition is that the hells are not empty, and he vows not to become a Buddha. This is the difference from other Bodhisattvas."

Fang You shook his head lightly, "Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva made a great wish, which is indeed incomparable to other Bodhisattvas, but other Bodhisattvas have also made many great wishes. There are obvious differences on this Buddha statue. Do you see it?"

Fatty Liu looked at it carefully, but shook his head. Fang You smiled, "The difference between Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva and other Bodhisattvas is that ordinary Bodhisattvas are the gods and humans who wear a crown, a heavenly robe, and a necklace. Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva usually appears as a bald head or an ordinary monk wearing a Vairocana crown and cassock, so it can be said that he is a true universal salvation of all beings."

"Let's leave this alone for now, and then look at the line of small print below, and tell me what you see."

Fatty Liu smiled again when he saw the place Fang You was pointing at, "Boy Feilong, I already knew that there are small characters below this, but it doesn't mean anything, maybe it's just someone else made a mistake, this is the Great Wish Bodhisattva Ksitigarbha , not Medicine Buddha."

Fang You looked at him with a half-smile, "Is it really just someone else made a mistake? Why is the well-known King of Ksitigarbha, unknown to others, written Medicine Master Liuliguang Tathagata on it? Hehe, Boss Liu, can you Let’s talk about the appearance of Medicine Buddha and his second biggest wish.”

Fatty Liu looked at Fang You suspiciously, and suspected that this kid was too neurotic, and he could guess anything in a line of small words, "The pure land of Medicine Buddha is the Eastern Pure Glass World, so it is called Liuliguang Buddha. Lapis blue is the color of the skin, wearing three clothes, holding the medicine myrobalan in the right hand, and taking off the medicine bowl in the left hand, and the bowl is filled with nectar that can cure all kinds of diseases in the cause and effect of all living beings."

"Pharmacist Buddha once made twelve great wishes. The second wish you asked is to wish that when I attain Bodhi in the next life, my body will be like glass, clear inside and outside, pure and free from blemishes, bright and vast, with towering merits and virtues. It surpasses the sun and the moon; all living beings in the nether world are fully enlightened, and they can do whatever they want, and do all kinds of business, but what does this have to do with Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, it must be a mistake."

Fatty Liu said indifferently, but he is very familiar with the very important Medicine Buddha in Buddhism.

Fang You smiled, "Hehe, on the Buddha statue of Ksitigarbha, the name of Medicine Buddha is written, which may tell us something. Medicine Buddha once made a great wish, just like what you just said, I wish that when I attain Bodhi in the next life, my body will be like glass, clear inside and out."

"And now, Medicine Buddha has attained the Dao, and perhaps his whole body has already changed from a mortal body to colored glaze, but the thing engraved with Medicine Buddha's name is not only Ksitigarbha King, but also an object made of pottery. Don't you have any doubts?"

"Buddhist believers will not just engrave the name of another great Buddha on a Buddha statue." Fang You leisurely picked up the teacup, quietly looking at the dilapidated Ksitigarbha on the table Bodhisattva Wang, he can think of a Buddha hidden in a Buddha, but there is another Buddha hidden in this Buddha, which is what surprised him.
