When Yang Jing saw these three tombs, he immediately realized why Yue Chengzi said on the inscription that some tombs had not yet been explored.Yang Jing estimated that it was not that Yuechengzi did not find these tombs, but that these tombs could not be opened at all.At least in terms of the technology of that era, the fault was to use manpower to dig for many years, otherwise it would really be impossible to solve these three broken dragon stones in a short period of time.The broken dragon stone outside the three tombs is not as big as the one that can be moved outside, but it is also two meters square and half a meter thick, and in terms of weight alone, it definitely exceeds more than 10,000 catties.Even Yang Jing, if he didn't use the storage space, he wouldn't be able to open these three broken dragon stones.Blowing up the door with a medicine here, that's purely a mouse being a bridesmaid for a cat, and killing himself!
However, this discovery also made Yang Jing excited again, what does the broken dragon stone in the tomb mean when it was put down?
Very simply, it means that the burial goods have been placed in the three burial chambers, otherwise this broken dragon stone will not be put down.Yang Jing unceremoniously stood in front of one of the tombs, and launched the storage space skill against the half-meter-thick broken dragon stone in front of him, and the next moment, the broken dragon stone weighing more than 10,000 catties suddenly disappeared silently, and a two-meter-square hole appeared on the rock wall that was originally tightly sealed, and the remaining part of the broken dragon stone that was originally stuck in the rock wall also fell out of the rock wall one after another because of the sudden lack of support in the middle.Yang Jing activated the storage space skill again, put away these falling stone bars, and suddenly, the door of this tomb seemed clean.It's as if there was no dragonstone here at all.After nodding with satisfaction, Yang Jing walked inside, and under the illumination of the light, a brilliant golden light rushed in front of him and immediately made him involuntarily squint his eyes.On the floor of the tomb of more than 20 square meters, there are Buddha statues full of golden light!"
My sister and sister, it's going to happen!"
Even though Yang Jing had obtained a lot of gold in several treasures, he couldn't help but sigh after seeing so many Buddha statues at this time.There are more than 100 Buddha statues in this tomb, all of which are of different sizes, and each Buddha statue has a different shape.After pulling the two battery lights in, the whole burial chamber immediately became much brighter.After Yang Jing carefully counted these Buddha statues of different sizes and sizes, he found that there were a total of one hundred and eight Buddha statues in this tomb.The number one hundred and eight has a very important meaning in Buddhism.Buddhism pays attention to the six roots, six dusts, and six enters.The six roots are "eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, and mind"; The six dusts are "color, sound, fragrance, taste, touch, and law"; And the six into is "the feeling of the six dusts of the six roots".The addition of six roots, six dusts, and six into is eighteen, and Buddhism pays attention to three worlds and upside down, so that eighteen times three times and then multiplied by upside down, it is exactly one hundred and eight.Therefore, Buddhism, whether it is chanting the Buddha or ringing the bell, must be one hundred and eight times, which means that all the six roots, six dusts, and six entrances of the three worlds are reversed.Sentient beings do not have six roots, six dusts, six entrances and upside down, and naturally become Buddhas!
Wu Zetian believed in Buddhism, and he believed very religiously, so it was not surprising that one hundred and eight Buddha statues appeared in his funeral goods.In ancient China, there were two emperors who were particularly interesting, that is, they were not very well reflected in folklore, but they were not low in Buddhism, the first was Emperor Yang of Sui, and the second was Wu Zetian.Wu Zetian is known as the First Emperor of the Ages, not only because she was the first and only female emperor in Chinese history, but also because she had deep roots in Buddhism.Legend has it that when the Buddha Shakyamuni was alive, one day he was making a dervish, and on the way he met a girl who was playing with a group of children in the middle of the road.The girl saw the Buddha leading his disciples from a distance, so she half-jokingly and half-seriously took a stick of sand from the ground with both hands, walked up to the Buddha, and put the sand in the Buddha's bowl.Sariputta, the eldest disciple of the Buddha, couldn't stand it and thought to himself: How can this girl be so reasonable, how can she joke with the Buddha with sand.When they were on their way, he couldn't help but ask the Buddha, "World-honored one, why did you accept that girl who put sand and soil in your bowl just now?"
”The Buddha smiled and said, "You don't know that after thousands of years, this woman will become king in the Eastern Aurora Kingdom when her karma is ripe, and if she is not supported by the sand, she will destroy Buddhism."
In this way, if she is allowed to plant this good root and karma, when she becomes emperor in the future, she will protect Buddhism and promote Buddhism. ”The girl who put sand in the bowl in the story is the predecessor of Wu Zetian.After Wu Zetian became the emperor, he did play an indelible role in the promotion and promotion of Buddhism in China.Wu Zetian's relationship with Buddhism is indeed very deep, and she even became a nun twice in her life.The first time was before the age of fourteen, and the second time was forced.To be sure, being a nun for the first time had something to do with her parents' beliefs.Wu Zetian's mother, Mrs.
Yang, was a strange woman in the Tang Dynasty, she was a descendant of Emperor Wen of Sui and Emperor Yang of Sui, her father was Yang Da, the prime minister of the Sui Dynasty, and her uncle was Yang Xiong, the king of Guan.And it is only natural for Mrs.
Yang to pass on such a belief to Wu Zetian.As for becoming a nun for the second time, it is estimated that everyone in China knows what the reason is.After Wu Zetian entered the palace, he became a talented person of Tang Taizong.After the death of Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, according to the practice of the Tang Dynasty, she went to the Ganye Temple in the capital to become a nun.Although the second time he became a nun was forced, the experience of being a nun twice made Wu Zetian and Buddhism even more indissoluble.And when Wu Zetian became the emperor as a woman, she was even more inseparable from the support of Buddhism.The Tang Dynasty had three major theoretical systems that controlled people's thoughts, namely Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism.If Wu Zetian wanted to be emperor, he had to choose between these three, and the traditional Confucian classics did not allow women to participate in state politics.For example, it is written in the "Shangshu Pastoral Oath": "The chicken has no morning, and the morning of the chicken is the only family." ”Another example is "The Biography of Pseudo-Confucius", which wrote: "If the female generation of male is singing, the family will be exhausted, and if the woman seizes the country, the country will die." ”The Taoist family has a deep relationship with the Li Tang royal family, and the Tang Dynasty royal family worshiped the Taoist Lao Tzu as the ancestor, so the only ideological system that Wu Zetian could choose was Buddhism.Wu Zetian uses Buddhism because Buddhism has three benefits that can support Wu Zetian.First, in the theory of equality of all beings, the distinction between men and women is not as strong as that of Confucianism; 2.
Buddhism cares for the human mind, so it is precisely the human mind that is controlled; 3.
Wu Zetian has a religious background as a nun.In the same way, Buddhism was squeezed by Taoism at the time, and it also needed to find a refuge among high-level political decision-makers.Therefore, Buddhism helped Wu Zetian become the emperor, and Buddhism also found a shelterer.Wu Zetian and Buddhism are associated with each other, which means mutual benefit and win-win results!
Wu Zetian's affiliation with Buddhism made Buddhism recognize her as the incarnation of a bodhisattva, which meant that she had found a powerful theoretical weapon, which could not only help her establish her rule, but also help her rule steadily.
