When Yang Jing saw the three tombs, he immediately realized why yuechengzi said on the stele that some tombs had not been explored.

Yang Jing estimated that it was not that yuechengzi did not find these tombs, but that these tombs could not be opened at all. At least in terms of the technology of that era, the three broken dragon stones could not be solved in a short time unless they were dug by manpower for many years.

The dragon stone outside the three tombs is not as big as the movable dragon stone outside, but it is also two meters square and a half meters thick. In terms of weight, it is definitely more than 10000 kg.

Even Yang Jing could not open the three broken dragon stones without using the storage space.

It's just a mouse who acts as a bridesmaid to the cat and kills himself!

But this discovery also excited Yang Jing again. The broken dragon stone in the tomb was put down. What does that mean? It's very simple. That means that the three tombs have been filled with funerary objects, otherwise the broken dragon stone will not be put down.

Yang Jing stood impolitely in front of one of the tombs and launched his storage space skills against the half meter thick broken dragon stone in front of him. At the next moment, the broken dragon stone weighing more than 10000 kg disappeared silently. A two meter square hole appeared on the originally tightly jointed rock wall, and the rest of the broken dragon stone that was originally stuck in the rock wall, Also because of the sudden lack of a large piece of support in the middle, they fell out of the rock wall one after another.

Yang Jing launched the storage space skill again and collected the fallen stones. Suddenly, the door of the tomb looked clean. It's like there's no broken dragon stone here.

After nodding with satisfaction, Yang Jing walked inward. Under the irradiation of the light, a gorgeous golden light rushed forward, which immediately made him squint his eyes involuntarily.

On the ground of a tomb of more than 20 square meters, there are all Golden Buddha statues!

"My sister, it's coming!"

Even Yang Jing once got a lot of gold from several treasures, but at this time, after seeing so many Buddha statues, he couldn't help but sigh.

There are more than 100 Buddha statues in this tomb, which are different in size, and the shape of each Buddha statue is also different.

After the two battery lights were pulled in, the whole tomb immediately lit up a lot. After carefully counting these Buddha statues of various shapes and sizes, Yang Jing found that there were 108 Buddha statues in this tomb.

The number 108 is of great significance in Buddhism.

Buddhism pays attention to six roots, six dust and six entry. Six are "eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body and mind"; Six dusts are "color, sound, fragrance, taste, touch and method"; The six entrances are "the feeling of the six dust on the edge of the six roots".

The sum of six roots, six dust and six elements is eighteen, and Buddhism pays attention to the third generation and inversion. In this way, eighteen times the third generation and then the inversion is exactly 108.

Therefore, Buddhism needs 108 times to chant or ring the bell, which means to recite all the six roots, six dust and six elements of the third world upside down. All beings have no six roots, six dust, six entry and inversion, and naturally become Buddhas!

Wu Zetian believed in Buddhism and was very pious, so it is not surprising that 108 Buddha statues appeared in her funerary objects.

In ancient China, there were two emperors who were particularly interesting, that is, they were not well reflected in folklore, but their evaluation in Buddhism was not low. As for being a nun for the second time, it is estimated that all Chinese people know what the reason is. After Wu Zetian entered the palace, she became a talented person of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty. After Taizong's death, according to the practice of the Tang Dynasty, she became a nun in the ganye temple in the capital.

Although it was forced to be a nun for the second time, the experience of being a nun twice made Wu Zetian an indissoluble bond with Buddhism.

When Wu Zetian risked universal condemnation and became emperor as a woman, she could not do without the support of Buddhism.

In the Tang Dynasty, there were three theoretical systems that controlled people's thoughts, namely Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism. If Wu Zetian wants to be an emperor, she must choose from these three. The traditional Confucian classics do not allow women to participate in state affairs. For example, it is written in the Shangshu pastoral oath that "the hen has no morning, and the hen's morning is only the rope of the family." for example, it is written in the pseudo Confucius biography that "if the female generation crows, the family will be exhausted, and if the woman seizes the state policy, the state will perish."

Taoism has a deep relationship with the royal family of Li and Tang Dynasties, and the royal family of Tang Dynasty regards Lao Tzu of Taoism as its ancestor, so the only ideological system that Wu Zetian can choose is Buddhism.

Wu Zetian used Buddhism because Buddhism has three advantages to support Wu Zetian. 1、 According to the theory of equality of all living beings, the difference between men and women is not as strong as that of Confucianism; 2、 Buddhism cares for people's mind, so it controls people's thought; 3、 Empress Wu has a religious background of being a nun. Similarly, Buddhism was squeezed by Taoism at that time, and it also needed to find a shelter among high-level political decision-makers. Therefore, Buddhism helped Wu Zetian become emperor, and Buddhism found a shelter.

Wu Zetian's affinity with Buddhism means mutual benefit and win-win!

Wu Zetian's affinity with Buddhism makes Buddhism recognize that she is the embodiment of Bodhisattva. For Wu Zetian, it means that she has found a powerful theoretical weapon, which can not only help her establish rule, but also help her stabilize rule.
