Chapter 173 The Exposure of the Bracelet(2/2)
The two of them sat shoulder to shoulder in the last row of the auditorium, sitting silently for a while.
After Jerry walked off the stage, the old principal did not sit back in his seat, and was still talking about some long discussions about campus culture construction in front of him.
But Koko didn't have the heart to listen.
She felt a little bored sitting in such a silent state. She lowered her head, played with a strand of hair raised in her ears, and occasionally hummed a few unpopular English tunes from her mouth.
“Huh?”
The girl seemed to have suddenly seen something interesting.
She suddenly grabbed Gu Weijing's sleeve, looked at the jade bracelet exposed below the sleeve, and blinked in surprise.
"Is this shape a consecrated bracelet dedicated to the Great Golden Pagoda?"
Koko shook Gu Weijing's wrist, as if he had discovered something new continent, and said strangely: "This kind of bracelet is very difficult to deal with. You actually have a bracelet."
She carefully used her fingertips to tweak the ice jade inlaid on the bracelet between Gu Weijing's wrist, and looked at the word "Gu" carved by the jade worker with a very thin carving knife.
"Your last name is also engraved on it. Such bracelets are not many in a year." Kokoo smacked his lips, "I don't even want it."
“Very rare and precious?”
Gu Weijing turned the bracelet on his wrist. He had never taken it off since Sakai Katsuko tied it to him.
Remember, all artists who participated in the Great Golden Tower restoration project should have such a bracelet.
"This is the bracelet you bought. Is it precious? Come and ask me?" Koko glanced at Gu Weijing.
"It's not bought, it's given."
"That's what... that's a very attentive gift."
The state gift given to famous artists by the Myanmar government should indeed be considered a gift of care.
"So precious?"
“It’s not necessarily expensive, but it must be very rare.”
Koko bit his lower lip and said softly: "Buddha Bodhisattva does not distinguish between sentient beings by virtue of their nobleness and humbleness, so these bracelets and Buddhist beads are often good and bad. Your bracelets are of good and bad, but similar bracelets made of rosewood and cheap agate stones may only cost a few hundred Burmese kyats, and the porters who carry sliders by the Yangon River can afford it."
"Since that's the case, why don't you just offer thousands of strings or tens of thousands of strings, so that you can buy them at will?"
Gu Weijing was surprised that although he grew up in Yangon, a place with a strong Buddhist atmosphere, he was not a believer, so he did not understand such a priority.
"Bah! Buy it casually, and you think it is a steamed bun in the cafeteria. This kind of thing is sincere, and it is to ask for people you care about, and have a wish for peace and smoothness. How can it be considered sincere when selling it casually? Monk Tang has to go to the West to obtain scriptures. Why doesn't the Buddha give him the true scriptures just by chance?"
The most famous of the four great classics in Myanmar is "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". Legend has it that the great drug lord Kunsha never leaves himself, followed by "Journey to the West", which almost everyone has read.
Koko seemed to be very concerned about this bracelet and was very dissatisfied with the statement that Gu Weijing did not take it seriously.
She stared at the small bracelet in Gu Weijing's hand and said softly: "The bracelets that are consecrated by the Great Golden Tower every month have only about fifty niches in total, and one niche and one niche, which is difficult for ordinary people to get."
"If you want to get the bracelet for consecration, if you don't go through the government channel, then no matter how high or low you are, you go to the golden niche of the Buddha statue in front of the Great Golden Tower early every weekend to register, and rank in the top 50 for three consecutive weeks. This means that you are sincere enough and can get the opportunity to have such bracelet. If there is any interruption in the middle, start over again."
Burmese people not only burn incense when worshiping Buddha, but also serve water to the flowerbed in front of the Buddha statue.
When Gu Wei painted the "Picture of Protecting Buddha and Protecting Dharma" before, the reason why those adult artists were not there was because everyone followed Mr. Cao to water the Buddha.
Water the first bowl of water before opening the door of the Great Golden Tower every day, which is equivalent to burning the first incense stick in front of Yonghe Palace in the capital. The legend is particularly effective.
So many people came to queue up early.
If you want to rank close to the top 50 for three consecutive weeks, it is indeed a physical job to obtain the scriptures of the West.
"When I was a child, my mother would ask me for a string of bracelets like this every year to bless me with safety and health." Koko looked at the jade string on Gu Weijing's wrist and showed a longing expression.
"Auntie is too lazy to run away for you now?"
Gu Weijing raised his eyebrows.
He had met Koko's mother, the very charming aunt, who looked like sisters and more like mother and daughter.
"No, my mother has passed away for many years. The vixen you saw is my stepmother." Koko said indifferently.
