Chapter two hundred and twenty first magical Tibetan medicine
It was already seven o'clock in the evening when I returned to the small hotel. The sun sets very early in Tibet, so it was already late at night. Because I didn't say hello in advance, the number of mobile phones in this place was not good, and all the phones were not in the service area. So when Wang Xiaobin returned to the small hotel, he was scolded by Chen Yun and Zheng Shuang who were so anxious that they almost called the police. Wang Xiaobin knew that his senior brother and sister-in-law were worried about him, so he apologized repeatedly and promised that there would be no next time, which made Chen Yun calm down.
"It seems that in the eyes of my senior brother, I am still the young man who just walked into the school gate!" Wang Xiaobin smiled self-deprecatingly.
The next day, the Tibetan tour guide Sang Zhu drove the jeep and took Wang Xiaobin and the other two to visit the Shenzha Nature Reserve.
Wang Xiaobin was relaxed and had a good time. After returning to the hotel, he asked Chen Yun a farewell because he was thinking about the Tibetan medicine and Tibetan medicine mentioned by Jijiao Dawaweise.
He also had a good meal with Jijiao Dawaweise. Jijiao Dawaweise agreed and would take Wang Xiaobin to find the big lama tomorrow.
The itinerary on the second day was also very simple. Because the Potala Palace now brings tourists from all over the world, it is necessary to limit the number of tourists to visit. Buying tickets has become a big problem. You have to wait until you queue up to buy tickets. Wang Xiaobin came to Tibet to relax. Since there are things that attract Wang Xiaobin, Wang Xiaobin naturally will not regard enjoying the scenery as the most important thing, let alone visiting the Potala Palace in advance. Why don’t Wang Xiaobin do it?
Jijiao Dawaweise was waiting at the entrance of the small restaurant early, and the weather was a little colder today. Especially in the early morning, the temperature was unbearable. Even Jijiao Dawaweise, the fat man, was trembling with the cold.
"Brother Xiaobin, I think my body has become much lighter and I feel much more comfortable when walking." Jijiao Dawaweise shouted happily when he saw Wang Xiaobin coming.
"Haha! handsome guy, that's just a psychological feeling, it won't be effective so quickly." Wang Xiaobin smiled and hugged Jijiao-Dawawise, then smiled.
"Let's go to the Potala Palace." Jijiao-Dawaweise said with her arms around Wang Xiaobin.
"Stylish guy, I detained the tour guide and said that you need tickets to go to the Potala Palace, and the tickets have been sold out in the past two days." Wang Xiaobin said, and was also thinking that this handsome guy could probably walk through the back door and buy tickets from the internal department!
"You still need a ticket to the Potala Palace? Haha! Brother Xiaobin, you just need to follow me." Jijiao Dawawei said to Wang Xiaobin with a smile.
The Potala Palace is located on Maburi Mountain in the northwest of Lhasa, Tibet. It is a famous palace-style building complex, the essence of Tibetan ancient architectural art. The Potala Palace was built in the 7th century AD and was built by the Tibetan king Songtsen Gampo for Princess Wencheng of the Tang Dynasty who married far away from Tibet. The palace of 999 houses was built on the Hongshan Mountain at an altitude of more than 3,700 meters. The palace was built along the mountain and now covers an area of 115 meters. It is all made of stone and wood. The tops of the five palaces are covered with gold and copper tiles, with brilliant golden light and majestic momentum. It is the essence of Tibetan ancient architectural art and is known as the plateau temple.
As expected, as Jijiao Dawaweise said, this fat man obviously has a very high status in the Potala Palace. Otherwise, those little lamas would not have greeted him. Ordinary tourists would never enjoy such preferential treatment. For ordinary Tibetans, they only have to pay tribute to the lamas. Apart from returning the gifts, they would not pay tribute to them at all.
"Dawaweise, do you have time to see me today?" Jijiao-Dawaweise brought Wang Xiaobin to a relatively remote room. A lama who looked very energetic but thin inside stood up from behind the desk, walked up with a smile and hugged Jijiao-Dawaweise and said.
"I don't want to come to this place! If I hadn't been for my Han friends, I would like to introduce you to Wang Xiaobin, my new Han friend, this is the Mangjie Lama who is in charge of medicine and other things in the Potala Palace, and my friend since I was a child." Jijiao-Dawaweise introduced to both parties.
"Wang Xiaobin? Why do I feel so familiar with this name?" The Sangjie Lama looked at Wang Xiaobin carefully and murmured.
"Oh? You know each other?" asked Kiko-Dawawise strangely.
"I don't know it, but I'm very familiar with this name. It seems that I've heard it at some point." Sanjie said, and then thought about it carefully.
"I remembered that you are the most famous doctor in the world, right? I remembered correctly!" San Jie suddenly shouted, and it seemed that she really remembered it.
"I knew that my Han friend was not an ordinary person. One day he heard me say Tibetan medicine and Tibetan medicine, and his eyes were straightened, haha!" Jijiao Dawaweise remembered Wang Xiaobin's appearance that day and laughed.
"Please come in quickly, I'll make tea for you." The big lama from the Sangjie smiled and let the two of them in, then went out to make butter tea by himself.
"How do you feel?" Jijiao-Dawawi asked Wang Xiaobin, who was looking around, with a smile.
"I feel like I'm going home." Wang Xiaobin looked at the bookshelf in the room full of medical books, and felt like he had a small argument from his master in the United States before.
"Come on, taste the most authentic butter tea in Tibet." Mangjie quickly walked in with three cups of tea, followed by two wooden barrels carrying butter tea.
"Thank you..." Wang Xiaobin took the butter tea and took a sip. A fragrance of food came to his nose and flowed into his stomach through his mouth. The warm feeling dispelled the coldness of Lhasa in the early morning.
"Come on, tell me what's going on!" Sanjie asked with a smile on his face. Of course, this was asked by Jijiao-Dawawei.
"My Han friend is very interested in Tibetan medicine and Tibetan medicine, so you can see if you can give him some books, or just teach him it simply." Jijiao Dawawei asked with a smile.
"Kijiao-Dawawise, have you forgotten the rules of the Potala Palace? There are many things that cannot be spread out." Sanjie frowned and said. It seems that this kind of unpleasantness cannot be easily adapted if the relationship is good.
"I know, what's wrong with this? Isn't it just a Tibetan doctor? You don't teach it. Can't I teach it?" Sanjie's tone made Kiko-Dawaweise very unhappy. His best friend didn't even give him face, which made Kiko-Dawaweise very angry.
"Kijiao-Dawaweise, you should know that the Tibetan medicine and medicine in the Potala Palace are the richest, but the rules of the Potala Palace are that this cannot be taught to foreigners." Sanjie was also a little angry when he saw that Jijiao-Dawaweise was not understanding.
"Forget it, don't hurt the harmony for me, I won't learn it anymore." Wang Xiaobin was a little depressed, but he said in a turbid manner that a nation has its secrets. Even within a system, there are many things that not everyone can know, such as in traditional Chinese medicine. If it weren't for the successors identified by the three masters, Wang Xiaobin would probably have a lot of things that he wouldn't have learned.
"Sangyue, I don't want to argue with you, just say, what can I do? Otherwise, you give me the book and I will take it back and teach him, so that you will not be considered a violation of the rules. After all, I used to be... Forget it, don't mention that, you said it's OK, right?" Jijiao Dawaweise asked with a compromise solution.
"Didn't you let me knowingly commit this? But since you are so sure, there is a way to let me teach him, the test of the brave." Sanjie said with a wry smile and shook his head, then said to Kiko-Dawaweise.
"What? The brave test, go ahead, are you kidding? What season is it now? Winter is coming soon. You ask him to conduct this test now. You ask someone from the coastal area to participate in this, he is the only one? You are crazy, I teach you, I teach you, it's okay!" Jijiao Dawawei said angrily, as if the task that Sanjie just said was a completely impossible task.
"Master Sangjie, can you ask what happened to the brave man's test?" Wang Xiaobin interrupted. If he didn't speak again, these two old friends would have to turn against each other.
"Brother Xiaobin, that's not done by humans. Even in summer, at least one team of people will be able to do it." Jijiao Dawaweise said quickly, because in this season, Wang Xiaobin's character, Jijiao Dawaweise cannot let him do stupid things.
"It's okay, I always have to know what a brave test is before I can decide whether to do it or not!" Wang Xiaobin comforted Jijiao-Dawawi's emotions. It seems that this fat man really treats himself as a friend, otherwise he would not be so serious. After all, he has only known him for less than three days.
"This..." Jijiao Dawaweise saw Wang Xiaobin's resolute expression, shook his head and sat back, stopping talking.
"In our Tibetan people, Youzhen is called the test of the brave. In the past, it was used to choose the guardian of the living Buddha, and now it is the same. However, if it is not a Tibetan person who chose this task, as long as it can be completed, it will be regarded as a warrior of the Tibetan people. The rules of the Potala Palace for Tibetan medicine and Tibetan medicine will have no effect on you. Of course, it is not a good time now, so like Jijiao Dawaweise, I think you'd better not choose to go up the mountain alone at this time. Oh! I forgot to say that the test of the brave is to climb to the Himalayas and then pick a snow lotus flower.
Come back, a complete snow lotus.” The great lama of the Sangjie Festival explained in detail to Wang Xiaobin.
On the plateau itself, it is a test for the human body. Generally, climbing the Himalayas is chosen to go in summer in Tibet, that is, in April and September. As long as winter begins, that is, from October, the temperature in Tibet will drop sharply, and then it will start to snow, heavy snow covers the mountains, storms, and hail. At this time, nature will show its infinite power and destructive power. At least one team is required, at least ten people, and each person is responsible for one aspect, such as doctors, supplies, etc.
"Okay, I accept this task, but I want to see it. If there are companions, I will go up. If there are no companions, I can only wait until I find a companion before considering this task." Wang Xiaobin smiled. When he saw Jijiao Dawawei's words were made to stop him, he quickly explained that this kind of thing is not as simple as running to the park to climb a rockery. Humans are very small and fragile in front of nature. Wang Xiaobin doesn't want to throw his life here.
"Since that's the case, I will notify the great lama who is responsible for this matter to register you. You just need to come back with the fresh snow lotus." Sang Jie added.
The meaning of the Mulberry Festival is very obvious. Whether you really go to the Himalayas to pick it up or ask others to buy it directly, as long as you can get it back, you will be considered passing.
"If the situation allows, I will pick a snow lotus with my own hands." Wang Xiaobin naturally understood the meaning of the Sangjie Lama, but he still said with certainty that fraud was not what Wang Xiaobin likes.
To become a test member of the brave, you need to go through tedious procedures such as signing and blessings. Wang Xiaobin spent the whole morning, and his legs were numb. He finally completed this primary task. The rest was to find an opportunity to climb the mountain.
"Brother Xiaobin, I believe this book will be very useful to you." Follow Jijiao-Dawaweise back to a Tibetan-style hotel. Jijiao-Dawaweise, who was drunk and hazy, took out a small box carved with a dog-shaped pattern from under his bed, took out a book from it and handed it to Wang Xiaobin.
"This... I can't understand." After taking it, Wang Xiaobin looked through two pages, but found that it was all Tibetan. Except for the pictures that could be seen clearly, Wang Xiaobin felt like he had seen the heavenly book.
"Oh! I forgot it, it doesn't matter. You are not familiar with Tibetan language now. You just need to understand the pattern above. There are 32 Tibetan medicines here. You only need to tell whether it is in the book or not when you see the plants. As long as it is in the book, you will pick it back and you will be useful." Jijiao-Dawawei's eyes are hazy, but
Yes, he said to Wang Xiaobin with a smile—
