A short video showing a member of the cleaning staff at the Summer Palace in Beijing explaining Buddhist scenic spots drew a lot of traffic on different social media platforms recently, with netizens marveling at his mastery of traditional Chinese culture.
近日，北京颐和园一名保洁员向游客介绍园内建筑的视频在各大社交媒体平台走红，他对中国传统文化的熟练介绍令网友赞叹。
He has been dubbed the most powerful cleaning monk by netizens, originally appearing in Chinese writer Louis Cha's novel Tianlong Babu (demigods and semi-devils) as an unknown martial art master who disguises himself as a cleaning monk in the Shaolin Temple in Henan province.
不少网友称其是“最强扫地僧”，这一称呼出自中国作家金庸的小说《天龙八部》，讲述了一位河南少林寺的扫地僧其实是一位神秘莫测的武林高手的故事。
In the video, the worker, Zhang Xu, 40, explains the cultural connotations of the sites to several tourists, who were doing research.
视频中的这位保洁员名叫张旭，40岁，他向几名正在研究景点的游客解释了这些景点的文化内涵。
What makes it special is his recitation of a list of dozens of hard-to-pronounce Buddhist sites. He speaks with such ease and confidence that it seems he is doing a tongue twister. People thought he must be a tour guide or expert, yet he was wearing the uniform of a janitor and holding a broom.
这段视频的亮点在于张旭一连“输出”了几十个读起来拗口的佛教建筑名称。他娓娓道来，一个“贯口”说得清清楚楚。人们以为他是导游或专家，但他却穿着保洁制服，拿着扫帚。
After his explanation, Zhang smiled and returned to his work as though nothing had happened.
张旭讲完之后，一笑转身又继续扫地去了。
