Chapter 478: The Movement to Destroy the Buddha!
Liu Jingfeng's eyes shone when he saw it, and he said excitedly: "This should be the war between the Tubo Emperor and the Tang Dynasty recorded by the Tubo Emperor. Look at the armor of these soldiers, which is the standard of the Tang Dynasty armor."
As a gallery owner, Liu Jingfeng has never seen Tang paintings.
The soldiers inside are exactly the same as those on the murals, and I have to admire the level of the Tubo court painters!
"Well, and the archery monk should be Lalong Beji Dorje who gave the last Zamprang Muda a fatal blow." Lin Ran nodded.
Anyway, everyone was resting now and were in no hurry to move forward, so Lin Ran spread relevant information to them.
Lambda was the last Zampu of the Tubo Dynasty!
He deprived the monks of their privileges and was therefore boycotted by many sects.
As a ruler who hates the privileges of monks, all the ministers around him are followers of the sect.
All conflicts broke out completely after launching the action to destroy the Buddha.
The war with Datang at that time had pushed them to the brink of danger, and the people were living in dire straits.
Monks have a very high status, farmers have no intention of farming, and herdsmen have no intention of grazing. Everyone wants to sneak into the temple and gain a privileged status.
In anger, Langmuda gradually revoked all the privileges of the monks. At the same time, he also gave them warnings, entered major temples, and smashed the Buddha statues.
The monk dared not speak out in anger, but the seeds of hatred had already been planted.
At this time, there was an eminent monk named Lalong Beji Dorje, who was practicing in a cave. He claimed that he felt the call of the auspicious goddess of the Jokhang Temple in the middle of the night.
Tell him: "In today's Tibet, Langmuda ignores Buddhism, so the country's power continues to decline. You are the only one who can save the country."
The mission given to him by the goddess was to kill the king.
Immediately, Lalong Beji Dorje left his practice.
He asked his disciples and learned about the king's plan to destroy the Buddha.
Because of his strong faith, he believed the dream to be true and had the courage to kill the king.
He painted the white horse completely black with charcoal gray, and wore a black cloak and a black hat underneath. His face was also blackened, and he hid arrows in his sleeves. After riding the black horse, he called himself the "Ominous Black Devil."
Riding horseback to Lacheng, the capital of Tubo, when Langmuda was reading the words on the stone tablet in front of the Jokhang Temple, he thought everything was destined.
Taking advantage of the situation, he came to the king and learned that he was a senior monk in the temple. Langmuda was very satisfied and invited him to come forward.
Lalong Beji Dorje pretended to salute the king and took out the bow and arrow from his sleeve.
There are three steps to salute.
The first step is to salute, with an arrow in the bow;
The second step of the ceremony is to draw the bow and draw the arrow;
The third step is to take the king's head directly.
After seeing the hit, he took the opportunity to escape. Lang Muda did not die directly after being shot through the forehead. When he pulled out the arrow, he died instantly!
The ministers immediately panicked and immediately sent people to hunt down the assassin.
However, in fact, the ministers were already dissatisfied with him, and the soldiers chasing him in different directions gave different reasons.
For example, the light is too dark, or the way is blocked by water and chased to a cliff.
In short, the assassin's whereabouts have disappeared.
In the process of escaping to the cave for cultivation, Lalong Beji Dorje passed by a river and washed off all the carbon oil on his body.
He also wore his clothes inside out, showing white.
When he met the interrogating soldiers, he called himself "White Demon God".
Because his clothes were different from the description, he fled back to the cave where he practiced.
He planned to cover everything up and pretend that he was still practicing.
However, no matter how well he disguised himself, he could not hide it from the eyes of a wise man. After being discovered, he did not dare to stay where he was and fled that night.
After Lin Ran finished telling his story, he found that everyone had been fascinated.
"Then where did he go?" Wang Jinpeng asked.
"No one knows his whereabouts." Lin Ran smiled. He looked at the paintings on the wall and then said: "Actually, historians have another view that Lalong Beji Dorje is not exist."
"It doesn't exist?" Liu Jingfeng showed an expression of disbelief. Murals usually don't lie.
"Because everything is too coincidental, just like the reincarnation of cause and effect in Buddhism." Lin Ran sighed.
Any rules, once used for evil purposes, cannot be found to have any flaws.
In such a country where Buddhist culture is prevalent, it seems logical to kill the king in the name of Buddha!
"Historians generally believe that this assassination was designed by Minister Baiben next to Lang Muda."
At that time, the Baijiao almost gained the actual dominance of Tubo. The appearance of Lang Muda destroyed everything they had arranged.
What really made Minister Baiben want to kill was that during the operation to destroy the Buddha, Lang Muda discovered that he had ulterior motives and planned to bury him alive.
After weighing the pros and cons, the only way is to kill the master!
What is recorded on the screen are the two important turning points that led to Tubo's demise.
No one knew much about this history, and no one spoke for a while, just listening to Lin Ran's explanation.
Lin Ran continued: "Tubo's national power was declining at that time, and the Tang Dynasty also succeeded in destroying Buddhism, but they failed."
He pointed at the soldiers wearing thick leather armor, and then at the Tang Dynasty army inside.
Wang Jinpeng slapped his head: "Tubo is too fierce. They wear cloth armor and fight with armored warriors."
"Although the Tubo soldiers all look very strong and taller than the Tang Dynasty soldiers, the equipment gap is too big. It is unreasonable for the country not to perish." Huang Hao agreed.
Everyone nodded and agreed with Huang Hao's opinion.
Because the history he talked about was very similar to their Song Dynasty period.
Lin Ran said: "Actually, it's not that they don't want to, it's just that the place is so big. And their ruling class is very problematic. The productivity in the feudal era was much higher than that in the slave era. You see, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty were there to make contributions. , fighting to avenge their families. Look at the Tibetan soldiers. On the surface, they are fighting for God, but in fact, what is going on in their hearts?"
It’s not that I question the role of faith, it’s just that in times of despair, it doesn’t have any effect.
It has been determined that this is a Tubo mural, and they also got enough rest while Lin Ran told stories.
Looking at the murals on the wall, a large amount of red paint is used to vividly depict the cruelty of war!
Maybe at the last moment of destruction, people finally realized it.
There is no God in the world, the only one who can save them is themselves!
After hearing Lin Ran's words, everyone nodded in agreement.
After all, it is a small border country. It is fighting all day long, but it can still spend time building such a big project. It shows that the ruler is rotten to the core.
He obviously believed in the separation of body and soul, but he wanted to leave wealth to his body and arrange for servants to take care of the tomb.
It can be seen that they actually have no faith at all in their hearts and are just used as tools!
How many people in the world are willing to obey?
