Chapter 478 The Millennium Nine-Eyed Dzi (2)
*****
Dzi?
Yang Zimei remembered reading the relevant information in the book.
Dzi bead is a kind of precious and rare gemstone, which is one of the seven treasures of Tibetan secrets. The main producing areas are in the Himalayas such as Tibet, eastern Tibet, Bhutan, Sikkim, and Ladakh. It has been passed down for about 2000 to 2500 years.
According to legend, the dzi bead originally belonged to the "treasure of the gods", and it was legendary that it descended to the world and was discovered by the Tibetans. Therefore, Tibetans still think that the dzi bead is a "stone descending from the sky".
Dzi beads have powerful magnetic energy and are the most valuable amulets of Tibetans. People believe that wearing Dzi beads can eliminate karma, obtain blessings, prevent strokes and avoid being hurt by outsiders, and can also enhance physical strength, increase wealth and so on.
Among the dzi beads, the nine-eyed dzi bead is the most precious. It is the king of the dzi beads. It brings together the merits of the nine vehicles. It represents the power of the world and the mercy of all sentient beings. It can save all suffering.
When Princess Wencheng married Songtsen Gampo, she brought a Buddha statue. The Buddha statue was inlaid with various jewels, and the most obvious place above the hat was the three nine-eyed dzi beads.
Yang Zimei looked at the dzi bead on the red sandalwood plate very seriously, her eyes lit up.
At this time, someone stood up and asked: "I heard that there are only two real nine-eyed dzi beads in the world, one is worn on the Sakyamuni Buddha statue in the Jokhang Temple, and the other is unknown. The pearl, it should not be the nine-eyed dzi from the Jokhang Temple."
When he said this, everyone talked a lot and raised all kinds of doubts.
The auctioneer patiently listened to everyone's questions, and then smiled faintly: "Everyone will be sitting here tonight, and they all believe that what we are auctioning is definitely the real thing, not a fake. This nine-eyed dzi is indeed not. The one from the Jokhang Temple, as for the one whose whereabouts are unknown, depends on everyone's judgment. But I can say for sure that it is definitely not a fake! Now, I will make a bid, as the highlight of tonight's auction, The starting price of this dzi bead is 5 million, and each bid is 1 million, please bid according to your own preferences and financial resources!"
There will be a rule in this auction, that is, after the auction, the money will be transferred immediately. If the auction is over and you regret it, you will have to compensate the organizer for 30% of the liquidated damages, and the item will fall into the hands of the second bidder.
Therefore, if it is not for the panic of too much money, everyone will bid very cautiously.
"Six million!" Huo Wenhua, who was beside Yang Zimei, was the first to raise his placard and start bidding.
Others can't see that this dzi bead is real, but Yang Zimei can.
She also really wanted to take a picture and get this dzi bead with a strong aura of good fortune. If Master wears it, it will definitely prolong her life a little bit, and the god of death cannot get close so quickly.
But she has no money.
When she bought two houses, she had spent all the money she had on hand, and there was only about one million left. If she knew that she would encounter such a lucky thing, she had sold all the antiques in her hand for money.
"Seven million!"
Song Xuan on the side also began to bid.
He could see from Yang Zimei's pupils that looked at the radiant Tianzhu, the Tianzhu was definitely the purest real thing.
"Eight million!"
Luo Yingjin also began to bid.
He didn't believe that dzi beads could have such powerful functions, but since he was a child, he had been rolling around among women, and he knew women's thoughts, and he could naturally see Yang Zimei's undisguised love for dzi beads.
