    "This is a large Peacock King Ming Bodhisattva, also known as the 'Buddha Mother Vajra'. It is four feet eight inches tall and weighs fifty-six kilograms. The Buddha Mother rides on the golden Peacock King, sitting in lotus position on a green flower, holding four arms.  Lotus flower, Kuyu fruit, auspicious fruit, peacock tailthe starting price is three thousand taels of gold, is that eminent monk interested in inviting them back?"

    "The abbot of Bailin Temple has raised his hand and is willing to bid four thousand taels of gold!"

    "The abbot of Lingyin Temple also raised his hand and offered five thousand taels of gold. Is there any higher price?"

    "Master Shenguang is still pious. He bid eight thousand taels of gold. Since no one raised their hands, this Daming King Bodhisattva belongs to Tianyi Temple!"

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    The shopping and spending was like running water, the prices were raised again and again, and shouting came and went. The monks were exhausted and their voices were hoarse. They simply sat cross-legged and let Liang Xiaoyu perform alone.

    The process is as follows: A glazed Buddha statue is lifted up, Liang Xiaoyu introduces it first, and then he offers a low auction price, either two thousand taels of gold, or three thousand taels of gold, the lower the price, the lower the price.  The higher the price

    The monks stopped shouting. When they saw a glaze Buddha statue that they recognized, they would raise their fingers and add five hundred taels of gold to one finger until the highest price appeared!

    Monks who are cash-strapped will take the initiative to find bank personnel and use temple shops, fields, and buildings as collateral to borrow some gold. The larger the loan amount, the more things will be mortgaged. Some people put bronze bells, Buddha statues, etc.  It¡¯s all pressed!

    Just like this, raising hands, raising prices, borrowing, mortgaging the repeated cycle, regardless of the consequences, the monks were mentally numb, until the last auction item appeared - the Great Sun Tathagata Buddha statue!

    This Buddha statue is eight feet high and weighs more than 300 kilograms. It is the largest among the auction items and has the highest level of craftsmanship. The Buddha statue is golden yellow, wears a crown of five wisdoms, forms the wisdom fist seal, and sits in lotus position on the Seven Lions  The treasure is so majestic that it makes people have the urge to kneel down and worship!

    "Amitabha Buddha, the glazed statue of the Tathagata Great Sun, this is the most precious treasure of my Buddhist sect!"

    "This poor monk is willing to risk everything. Even if the temple is completely mortgaged, he still wants to take this Buddha statue back!"

    ??¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­

    As soon as the Buddha statue of the Great Sun Tathagata came out, the monks became lively and energetic again. They all shouted hoarse voices and kept shouting out the astonishing sky-high prices. This was no longer a fight for blood, but a fight for their lives!

    Buddhism claims that all living beings are equal. In fact, there are clear internal hierarchies. According to practice, there are six realms and twelve levels of fruition. From high to low, they are Buddha, Bodhisattva, Arhat, Vajra, Bhikkhu, Bhikshuni, and Jialan

    They are also burning incense and worshiping Buddha. The Arhat is enshrined in the east temple, and the Buddha is enshrined in the west temple. Which way do you think the believers should go Naturally, who kowtows to whom, so what the monks are competing for is not the statue of the Great Sun Tathagata, but more  The number of believers, and believers are incense and money!

    After a fierce shopping spree, it was Tianyi Temple's wealth and wealth that allowed them to acquire this 'glazed Buddha statue of the Great Sun Tathagata'. However, after spending a lot of money in the previous auctions, Monk Shenguang didn't have much left in his wallet.  Got it!

    I had to use the temple's fields and real estate as collateral and borrow fifteen thousand taels of gold from Wuchou Bank to get the money together. Anyway, there are several glazed Buddha statues sitting there, so Tianyi Temple must be crowded with pilgrims.  If the tenants are squeezed a little, they won't have to worry about repaying their debts!

    After fierce competition, eighteen pieces of glazed Buddha statues belonged to different temples. Those who won were elated, while those who lost shook their heads and sighed. At this point, the auction also ended successfully. The dignitaries and monks left their seats one after another. Who knew that after taking a few steps, another  Something strange happened

    "Eminent monks, please stay. Wu Zhi traveled to Tianzhu and brought back a Buddhist treasure. He wanted to keep it as a family heirloom. It can be seen that the eminent monks are so virtuous. They even felt emotional in their hearts and decided to auction it off!  "

    "There is actually a treasure auction. Wu Zhi has gained a lot from this trip. He must squeeze us dry!"

    "Liu Li is a precious treasure of Buddhism. I can't think of anything more valuable than it!"

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­

    The monks all stopped, either shocked or suspicious, and kept whispering. The dignitaries also didn't leave, wanting to stay and watch the show, but Liang Xiaoyu only said three words and let everyone run.  Return to your seat - relic!

    In Buddhism, relics refer to the crystals formed when the remains of the Buddha and eminent monks were cremated after their death. It is the result of the three practices of precepts, concentration, and wisdom, plus the power of great vows. According to legend, Sakyamuni  After the Buddha passed away, his disciples burned his body and obtained a total of eight bushels and four buckets of relics!

    The relics are round, oval, or lotus-shaped.The colors are also different. There are pure white Buddha bone relics, black Buddha hair relics, and red Buddha meat relics The relics are extremely rare and are highly respected as sacred objects of Buddhism!

    Of course, the "eight dendrobiums and four buckets" are just imaginary numbers. In fact, after Sakyamuni passed away, he obtained a skull, two finger bones, four teeth, a middle finger bone, and a small amount of bead-shaped true body from the ashes.  Because the number of relics was too scarce, we had to imitate some relics using gold, silver, and jade and send them to various places to build pagodas for worship!

    It is said that Buddhism was not convincing when it first entered China, so two eminent monks from Tianzhu, She Moteng and Zhu Falan, invited a Buddha tooth relic to show their magical power in public. The fire cannot burn it, and the Vajra pestle cannot be broken.  So the Han emperors and ministers were impressed by it and spent a lot of money to build the White Horse Temple!

    After the completion of the White Horse Temple, the tooth relics of the Buddha were stored in gold letters and secretly hidden in the underground palace of the temple. Only the abbots of the past generations knew its location. It has never been shown to anyone for hundreds of years, and it is known as the "first treasure of Buddhism!"  ¡¯

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? away

    Don't look at the monks of Tianyi Temple-dedicated to each other, they can't live, but when they meet the monks of the Baima Temple, they have to bow their heads obediently. They are the ancestors of the Buddhist temple.

    "If there is a relic, it is really the most precious treasure of Buddhism, the most precious treasure among treasures!"

    "The relics are the supreme treasure. How can an ordinary person like Wu Zhi get them? Let's see if they are true or false first!"

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­

    Amidst the doubts of the monks, four attendants carried a wooden box, which was layered and covered with various seals. There were also eight soldiers wearing heavy armor and holding sharp blades, guarding the box every step of the way.  At first glance, he looks like a murderous warrior!

    Liang Xiaoyu looked solemn, washed his face and washed his hands first, then bowed to the box and saluted, then opened the seals layer by layer, took out a 'silver-edged sandalwood treasure letter' from it, bowed again, and took out a '  Gilt Silver Treasure Letter of the Four Heavenly Kings'

    The sixth level: the plain-faced silver letter with the top of the head

    The fifth level: the gilded silver treasure letter on the top of the Tathagata's Dharma

    The fourth level: Six-armed Avalokitesvara Pure Gold Dingding Treasure Letter

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­

    The last level: it is a pure gold four-door pagoda with a beaded roof and a single eaves. It is three inches high and two inches wide.  Under the illumination of the lights, colorful rays of light were emitted twinkling like stars falling into the world!

    "AmitabhaAmitabhaAmitabhathat Buddha!"

    During the opening process of the eight-fold treasure letter, the monks slowly gathered around. They all bowed to the ground and kowtowed step by step. Finally, they surrounded the relic and forced the eight soldiers awayor were dumbfounded or paralyzed.  Sit on the ground, or worship and kowtow continuously!

    Even the old monk Yijie stopped pretending to be blind. After rolling his eyes for a while, he shot two exquisite gazes and stared at the relic closely. He wanted to snatch it away, but he did not dare to offend it in the slightest!

    But after watching for a long time, no one spoke, let alone offered a price. The monks were all thinking about a difficult problem, how to prove that this crystal is the real relic of the Buddha?

    The relic is the most precious treasure of Buddhism. It has not been seen in the world for hundreds of years. No one among the hundreds of great monks present has seen the relic, not even the picture. Naturally, it is difficult to distinguish the authenticity from the fake!

    There is a real relic in the underground palace of Baima Temple, but it seems impossible to bring it to Xuchang City and compare it with the one in front of you. The monks of Baima Temple have to fight hard!

    ¡°Besides, there are several types of Buddha relics, with different sizes, shapes, and colors. Even if two relics are put together, it cannot prove which one is authentic and which one is fake?

    The monks were scratching their heads, and no one could think of a good solution. They had to look at Liang Xiaoyu, hoping that he could produce evidence to prove that the relic was real. In that case, they would lose everything and have to take the relic back!

    Liang Xiaoyu rolled his eyes. He was just a businessman. He had no magical powers and it was the first time he encountered such a thing. How could he prove the authenticity of the relics? Even if he had a way, he would not dare to use it because

    When he was at a loss, an attendant came to the high platform and handed Liang Xiaoyu a piece of paper. The latter secretly opened it and looked at it: "Burn it with fire, hit it with a hammer!"  '(Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
