Chapter 938: New Buddhist Rap and the Four Treasures Lucky Bag
In the pixel screen, Zhangzhangtian is a green-faced guardian wearing golden armor and holding a sword, with great momentum.
The dialog box above his head showed words.
"Senior Yaoshen, the specialty of the Southern Continent is not a wonder like star vision, but a completely different type."
"Please look."
Zhangzhangtian moved to the street and gestured to Lu Yao to observe a monk.
This pixel man was wearing a monk's robe and had a rosary around his neck.
The difference from the monks around him was that he was holding a guitar and singing on the street.
The monk shook his head and seemed very involved.
"It is difficult to get good results with so many confusions, and who can see through the endless world?"
"It is rare to be open-minded and free and easy when you fall into the hell, and the constantly declining body is like a shackle"
"The demons and ghosts who are afraid of chaos in the world do not know how to repent..."
Lu Yao sighed.
A new Buddhist rap?
There are already many pixel men watching around, with red hearts popping up on their heads, and they are very interested in it.
A smile appeared on Zhangzhangtian's head: "This is our specialty, and it is also a unique profession in Jambudvīpa, the Buddhist chanting monk."
"A long time ago, the monks in Jambudvīpa collected various scriptures and monks' notes, and translated and compiled them. However, most people were illiterate, and many people found it difficult to understand the Buddhist scriptures."
"So someone adapted the scriptures into ballads, arranged them, and added corresponding musical instrument accompaniment, and sang them by monks. This will not be boring, and it will be more conducive to widespread dissemination and make everyone love to practice."
"Especially for impatient children, even if they don't understand the meaning of the scriptures, they will sing along. Over time, they can slowly understand the true meaning."
He said: "The chanting of Buddhist chanting monks can reduce everyone's anxiety and impetuousness, dispel evil thoughts in their hearts, allow people to gain peace and relaxation, and increase secular stability."
Lu Yao remembered that the Yao clan had also had a profession called the oracle chanter before, which is similar to this one.
He clicked to view this chanting monk.
…
[Buddhist Chanting Monk]: Adapting various Buddhist scriptures and records into ballads can bring joy to people, strengthen the spread of Buddhist scriptures, improve the public security of the place where they are located, and reduce the probability of man-made disasters.
Required:
Southern Jambudvīpa Sīrti (1/1)
Buddhist monk LV2 and above
Musician LV2 and above
…
This profession in Southern Jambudvīpa is already very mature and the threshold is also high.
You must be both a Buddhist monk and a musician.
However, this is the first time Lu Yao has seen the instrument of Sīrti, so he asked Zhangzhangtian.
The owner of Jambu replied: "Senior, in fact, the origin of this profession is the Jambu monk's zither."
"In the past, the most famous tree in Jambu was the Jambu tree. Before becoming a monk, [Sakyamuni Buddha] meditated under the Jambu tree and later decided to become a monk. However, although this tree is well-known, it cannot be compared with the four sacred trees that are unique to Buddhism."
"Later, monks used the collapsed and damaged Jambu trees to make houses and furniture, and found that the reverberation was full and soft, with a very special tone. So some people polished the Jambu wood, painted it, made it into a zither plate, tied it with silk threads to play, and gradually evolved into today's Monk's harp. "
"The harp will produce a wonderful reaction with the Buddhist scriptures. You must use the harp when chanting the scriptures, so that you can move people."
Zhangdatian introduced his own specialty: "For a long time, monks played it secretly in private, because the sound of the harp was too melodious and pleasant, which would affect the monks' meditation. But I think this is very good, so I encouraged them to make and play it, and go out of the southern continent to play and spread the chanting of scriptures in other places. The effect is better than expected."
"Many places do not welcome Buddhism and Buddhist scriptures, but most civilizations are interested in music."
Lu Yao thought, this is a different way.
The combination of Shaolin Kung Fu and football is not seen here, but there is a fusion of Buddhist scriptures and street rap, which is very interesting.
Zhangzhangtian continued, "However, the number of chanting monks has always been small. A monk must practice Buddhism, master music theory, and make musical instruments. These three conditions are difficult to meet. Because of the special Buddhist temple city management method in Jambudvīpa, secular management is relatively loose, and production capacity has always been a weak point, so monks have to take on a lot of things on a daily basis."
"After going out, the chanting monks will face difficulties such as sleeping in the open air and physical illness. Even if they have exhausted their efforts to create excellent chanting works, they may be lost due to improper preservation or no one can restore them."
"When I saw Xingshi, I imagined that it would be great if they could be spread through Xingshi. The works of the chanting monks who have worked hard can be stored in the Sea of Heart and can be circulated stably. And whether people like it can be directly reflected through Xingshi."
"I plan to apply for a [Jambudvīpa Chanting] program in Xingshi to allow outstanding chanting monks to show more people. In this way, more people can be attracted to become chanting monks, forming a virtuous circle..."
Lu Yao touched his chin.
Buddhist freestyle debate is a program that has never been seen before, and it can increase the diversity of Yao culture.
Not bad.
…
"In addition, this [Four Treasures Lucky Bag] is another local specialty of ours."
An entry popped up above Zhangzhangtian.
Lu Yao moved the mouse to check it out.
…
[Four Treasures Lucky Bag]: A specialty of Jambu Continent, a lucky bag made of worn-out monk robes, which contains a gift from the monks to the donors. There is a certain probability that the gift will be gum of the Worry-Free Tree, Bodhi Fruit, Horse Chestnut Leaves or Sal Bark.
[Jambu Return Gift]
The Four Treasures can only be obtained by opening it to get the result, otherwise the Four Treasures will disappear and the lucky bag will break.
…
Another blind box.
Lu Yao was suspicious.
Could it be that Jambu Continent relies on export trade of lucky bags to earn external income?
“Senior, giving donors lucky bags has always been a feature of Mount Xumi. The monks go out to travel and chant Buddhist scriptures, and do not engage in production, so they need to beg for alms to survive.”
Zhangzhangtian, who did not understand, was still introducing this second specialty.
"It usually contains easy-to-store items such as grains and nuts, and the monks use this to express their gratitude. On this basis, the Southern Continent has made improvements. This is the idea of the Sun Palace Emperor. He said that since it is a gift, it should be given with more thoughts."
"Adding precious Mount Xumi specialties will surprise the recipients. This is also an opportunity. Those who are destined to receive it will get it. I think it is a good idea, so I divided a part of the resources obtained from Mount Xumi to [Zhama City]. The monks there will make lucky bags uniformly, and then distribute them to different temples and cities according to the trees of the monks who are traveling."
"Every monk who travels outside can get three lucky bags a year to give to those who donate to him."
"However, because there are not many Buddhist four sacred trees themselves, and even fewer can be given to me as a guardian, so the lucky bags are more of a thank you, and the chance of drawing the four treasures is relatively small. Generally speaking, we currently put 1 random four treasure in 1,000 lucky bags, and we can't afford more."
Lu Yao stood in awe.
A one in a thousand chance of winning a prize in a bag is considered very sincere.
He turned his attention to the four sacred trees, which are a specialty of Buddhism.
Lu Yao had received a gift from Zhangzhangtian before, which was the Bodhi fruit. His [Enlightenment] ability can increase the existing level of any ability by +1, and is effective within LV99.
Four entries popped up above Zhangzhangtian's head.
"Senior, please look, these are the four treasures, please accept them for identification."
He was very generous and gave them directly.
Lu Yao clicked them one by one.
…
[Aoyou Tree Gum]: The gum of the Aoyou Tree in Buddhist mythology, which can only be taken and sealed by the main gods of Buddhism, has the ability to forget worries.
[Forget Worry]
Chewing the Aoyou Tree Gum can temporarily eliminate most negative effects and maintain an excited state for one hour.
…
This is a magic weapon that eliminates negative buffs, and it also comes with a stimulant state.
It looks a bit like a super enhanced version of... betel nut?
Lu Yao looked at the next one.
…
[Seven-leaf leaves]: The leaves of the seven-leaf tree in Buddhist mythology can only be plucked and sealed by the main gods of Buddhism, and have the ability to gather.
[Collect]
The seven small leaves holding a leaf of the seven-leaf tree can sense each other's safety and request to gather.
…
This is more like an emergency signal prop, similar to an arrow piercing the clouds, thousands of troops coming to meet.
Whether friends, lovers, teachers and apprentices or members of the same organization, they can all be used.
Lu Yao focused his eyes on the last one.
…
[Sala bark]: The bark of the Sala tree in Buddhist mythology that falls off naturally. Only the main gods of Buddhism can seal it and have the ability to meet the dead.
[Meet the dead]
Burning the bark can call relatives in the underworld and communicate with them through the smoke until it burns out.
…
The value of the bark is also very high, equivalent to the telephone in the underworld.
Even gods find it difficult to go to the underworld to find people.
With the bark of the Sala tree, you can communicate remotely without leaving home. Whether it is to remember the ancestors, pay respect to the deceased relatives, or verify many secrets that cannot be verified, it is a powerful artifact.
Zhangzhangtian is very sincere to put these four treasures into the lucky bag and give them to people. It is really a good thing.
With such a genuine treasure gift, many people will be willing to help and accept the monks and people in the southern Zhanbuzhou. It is an effective long-term investment.
Lu Yao looked at this guardian god with a higher opinion.
An ellipsis appeared above Zhangzhangtian: "... Senior Yaoshen, I want to open up the wisdom of the southern Zhanbuzhou and emulate your Yao clan. Please teach me!"
Teach you?
Lu Yao scratched his head.
I don't understand this either. I rely on professionals, such as Tyrant and Slymode, to manage such complicated things.
Please ask professionals to come.
Lu Yao typed.
——Professional things, professionals do.
Lu Yao has always let the Yao clan run wild in the past, and he is not good at micro-management. Later, the population continued to increase, and the worlds of the Yao Clan civilization also became more numerous. His method was to find experienced subordinate gods and let them govern them separately.
As for himself, he mainly solved the resource needs of the Yao Clan civilization and found new opportunities.
But Lu Yao also experienced the initial period of mining everywhere and frantically looking for various energy sources. It was not until he obtained the channel of the spiritual energy mining area and got the large inheritance left by the Red Dragon Daisy's family that he became financially well-off.
As long as there is no war, resources will not be a problem in the short term.
An exclamation mark appeared above Zhangzhangtian: "You mean... to recruit gods who are good at secular management?"
Lu Yao typed.
——You can try it.
"I understand."
Lu Yao also told the other party that since the Southern Continent attaches great importance to the secular world, it might as well go to the Crawling Zone to get in touch with different kingdoms of God.
The Crawling Zone has the largest number of gods, the largest number of kingdoms of God, and the largest population in the entire oracle.
Instead of staring at the various resource worlds in the Leaping Zone and even the border zone and competing fiercely there, it is better not to cultivate the rear area where a large population is located.
Population is the body, which is an important basic skill for every god.
"I have learned!"
Zhangzhangtian bowed to the screen: "Thank you for your guidance. This time I will complete the transformation that I couldn't do before!"
Although Lu Yao didn't know the specific situation.
But being willing to change is always a good thing.
Wish him good luck.
At this time, the prayer of the Dark Star Lord appeared on the screen.
Lu Yao double-clicked the prompt.
The Dark Star Lord said hurriedly: "My lord, the four stars suddenly went crazy, and it accelerated the rotation of many surrounding worlds, destroying those worlds one by one..."
The smile on Lu Yao's face disappeared immediately.
Rebellious son!
See how I deal with you!
