Gu Hesheng said while watching. "This thing is called Bodhi Bead, a very famous magic weapon in Buddhism."

Pointing to a bead, he said, "Look, it's a layer of ebony on the outside, and the inside is a unique agate stone on the 5000-meter plateau."

Liancheng Yazhi was very surprised: "There are stones inside, why is it so heavy?"

"However, this wood seems to be a direct bead. How did the stone get in there?"

Gu Hesheng told him: "Using ebony with a tree age of more than 1000 years to cut into fine powder and then wrapping it on agate stones layer by layer is a bit like the meaning of Han Dynasty lacquerware."

"Wrap it layer by layer, then press it firmly, air-dry it, and hang it in the sun for ten years. Every process is very cumbersome. When it is confirmed that it will not crack, then find a craftsman to carve on it."

"Generally, Buddhist stories are engraved on it. This one seems to be...the story of the Buddha attaining enlightenment under the bodhi tree."

After Gu Hesheng finished speaking, he couldn't help admiring: "This thing is rare, even some famous temples and ancient temples that are particularly famous in the country may not be able to find it."

"Oh, look at the engraver, it's amazing. The expressions of the characters on it seem to be alive."

Rong Nuo opened his mouth in surprise, and said, "Wow, brother-in-law, you went out and brought back such a thing. It's... very valuable..."

Gu Hesheng shook his head: "Not only is it expensive, but I agree with ten pieces of Western Zhou bronzes in exchange."

He asked Liancheng Yazhi: "Who is this friend of yours, can you ask him, where did you get this thing?"

Liancheng Yazhi cleared her throat: "I'll ask you later, my friend has suffered some injuries and it's inconvenient to see others."

"Then remember to ask for me."

Liancheng nodded elegantly: "Well, I remember."

Gu Hesheng put the bodhi beads into the box, and told Liancheng elegantly: "Put this one away. Since it is for Quack, then you should put it away for him. Since this one is placed in the altar for worship, then put it away." Here, you can just put it in Guagua’s room, and you don’t have to wear it close to your body.”

"In the past, you must be a real eminent monk to be eligible to make offerings. Guagua is still young. Wearing this thing will bring you a lot of blessings."

Liancheng nodded elegantly: "Yes, I understand."

Rong Yan was also very surprised, but she didn't say a word, she was really afraid that Rong Nuo would find out if she asked further.

I can be sure of the appearance, this is what Liancheng Yazhi got from Xia Xuanmo.Liancheng took a sneak peek at her face, and the couple exchanged a glance.

Liancheng Yazhi asked casually: "By the way, Tang Zong, hasn't he come back?"

"Well, not yet, and I don't know where it went? Brother-in-law, can I take a look?"

Rong Nuo looked at the box eagerly.

Liancheng Yazhi hesitated for a moment, he was afraid that Rong Nuo would find out, but thinking about it, Xia Xuanmo didn't carve any marks on it, so there should be no problem.

So, he nodded and handed the box to Rong Nuo.

Rong Nuo carefully opened the box: "Wow... so beautiful, old man, you said that after the ebony is wrapped, it will be left to dry for ten years, so what if it cracks?"

Gu Hesheng said: "Knock it all out and start over again until it is completely firm."

Rong Nuo sighed: "This is really... troublesome."

Gu Hesheng smiled: "This is the only way to show devotion to the Buddha. For true Buddhists, it is a great honor for them to make this thing. Not only will they not find it troublesome, but they will be very grateful."
