The next morning, Zhao Lifan and Cheng Lu were taken to a larger room and saw Donnie, Donnie asked Zhao Lifan and Cheng Lu to loosen the ties, and then politely invited them to breakfast.

Although Zhao Lifan didn't stop stuffing food into his mouth with his hands, he observed the environment here, if he guessed correctly, Donnie lived here, and at the same time, he also found that Donnie's greedy eyes kept sweeping Cheng Lu's chest, and his heart began to sink, it seems that he has to find a chance to deal with these people quickly, otherwise Cheng Lu will be in danger.

After eating, Donnie took Zhao Lifan and Cheng Lu to another cave, which was more like a cave than a cave, because the entrance of the cave was sealed with stones, leaving only a door and a small window, and the decoration in the cave looked like a study.

Donnie sent his subordinates out, closed the door with his backhand, walked over and moved the bookshelf with only a few books behind the desk, and a hole one meter five or six high appeared on the wall of the cave behind, it turned out that there was a hole in the hole, Downey took the lead in with a flashlight, and motioned for Zhao Lifan and Cheng Lu to follow.

Zhao Lifan bent down and followed, Cheng Lu also followed, when entering the hole in the black hole, he couldn't help but reach out and grab Zhao Lifan's clothes, and the two of them followed Donnie up the steps in the hole, and when they were about twenty meters or so, they came to a closed space.

This space looks like a karst cave in the mountain, and then it was manually repaired, the space is not large, about sixty or seventy square meters, a few openings are artificially opened on the cave wall on one side, and there is a bright light shining in, Zhao Lifan listened to it, there was a slight sound coming from the mouth, and he identified the content of the sound, and he immediately judged that these openings were connected with the grotto outside.

"Please Mr. Zhao and Miss Cheng help me read the contents of these books, if you can get useful information, I will thank you, and I will definitely let you go after reading these books, I am a legitimate citizen of the United States, the relationship between the two countries is so friendly now, I will not risk a big disapproval to hurt you." ”

Donnie opened a small box on the ground and pointed to the dozen or so thread-bound ancient books inside.

Zhao Lifan noticed that there were two boxes on the ground, one large and one small, the small one had been opened by Donnie, and his eyes fell on the books in the small box, the books on them were Chinese characters, Zhao Lifan glanced at Cheng Lu, who was also surprised, and said:

"We'll do our best, and hopefully Lord Donnie will be able to talk. ”

"Don't worry, I said I would do it, I will wronged you two here today, I will go out first. ”

After Donnie finished speaking, he returned the same way, and after a while, Zhao Lifan heard Donnie tell his subordinates not to approach the cave, saying that he and Cheng Lu were helping him translate things. By all indications, Donnie's men didn't know about this place, and it seemed that things here were not simple, so they couldn't help but look at the big box.

Cheng Lu also relaxed a lot when she saw Donnie leave, she curiously reached out to open the big box, and asked Zhao Lifan:

"Lifan, do you think this Donnie will count when he speaks?"

But after the lid of the box was opened, both of them were speechless with the contents inside, there were seven boxes of different sizes, and the surrounding gaps were all filled with gold bricks of different specifications, Zhao Lifan opened the box one by one, and it was full of pearls, gemstones, and a diamond the size of an egg.

"Sister Lu, do you think he will let us go?"

After reading the contents of the contents, Zhao Lifan covered the box as it was, turned his head and asked.

"It seems that this time it is a catastrophe!" Cheng Lu sat on the box and said miserably.

"Not necessarily, I don't pay much attention to them, I already have a pretty good grasp of the distribution of these people, it seems that I have to act tonight. Zhao Lifan seemed to be explaining to Cheng Lu, and he seemed to be talking to himself.

After a while, Zhao Lifan once again set his eyes on the small wooden box, and began to flip through the books inside, Cheng Lu also came over, because of the age, the books were basically scattered, and the movements of the two were very gentle. There are twelve books in total, of which ten are Buddhist scriptures, and the remaining two are travelogues and biographies.

Cheng Lu first picked up a Buddhist scripture, and Zhao Lifan took the biography and read it, saying that it was a biography, but it was actually a memoir of a monk named Zhanba before his death.

Monk Zampa was born in Qinghai and grew up in a monastery since he was a child, but he didn't like to practice Buddhism very much, but he had a soft spot for martial arts, but there was no advanced martial arts in the small temple, until he was in his twenties, the temple came to a Tibetan tantric lama, the lama was an ascetic, and taught Zhanba a set of Tibetan tantra specially for ascetics to practice the inner strength of the mind.

Although it can make the physical body extremely strong and increase its strength, it is extremely painful when cultivating, like ten thousand ants devouring the body, but it is also in line with the original intention of the ascetic monk to exercise endurance and renunciation.

Zhanba was not satisfied after getting the exercises, he wanted to practice advanced internal strength, not only the physical body, but also by chance, Zhanba got half of the empty door of the internal strength of the mind, the empty door of the heart of the focus is on the Yongquan acupoint to store qi, but this alone is not a superior internal exercise, mainly their exercises have a method of exercising and expanding the acupoints, and what Zampa got is the part of the acupoints to exercise and expand.

Later, an accident, the old monk who raised himself passed away in order to save himself, and Zhanpa also woke up and began to practice Buddhism seriously, and later in order to achieve the state of purity and immaculateness, he also entered the ranks of ascetics, and went to the Lotus Temple in Tibet in nine steps.

In the end, I didn't find the Lotus Temple, and there was no record of whether it was pure and clean, but this line of work for a few years inadvertently combined the two internal exercises I got perfectly, and created a book dedicated to practicing acupoints and refining tendons and washing the marrow.

Although this exercise is still unable to store qi, but after practicing the first acupoint, the qi will skyrocket by about 500 catties, and then every time the cultivation is successful, the qi will be doubled on the original basis, and you can imagine how terrible it will be in the later stage.

But the exercises also have fatal flaws, that is, it takes about a year to cultivate the first acupoint, and then the time is doubled for each subsequent acupoint is cultivated, although it will also vary from person to person, but there is not much difference. There is also the fact that the first acupoint cultivation takes one year, which refers to the year of Zhanpa, who will cultivate all the time like him, so even if the average person is more diligent, it will take two years.

Later, Zhanba gave up looking for the Lotus Temple, in a small temple on the Tibetan side of the single Buddha, is also a famous local monk, Ming Yongle thirteen years, Zhanba monk Jing Ji, from the Tibetan side to the Central Plains line, and later met the Taoist monk Huixin at that time, admired its profound Buddhism, willing to learn with it.

In the fifteenth year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty, that is, in 1417 AD, Ming Chengzu ordered Zheng He to go to the Western Ocean for the fifth time, and the monk Zampa also got on the ship with the great monk Huixin, and in 1418 there was a heavy rainstorm near the Gulf of Aden, and the ship where the monk Zampa and Tang Jing's nephew Tang Li was located was overturned, and a boatload of people and materials were all buried in the sea.

Monk Zampa has practiced four acupoints, with more than 4,000 pounds of huge strength, with this brute force, he just held a mast and floated to the shore in the big waves, and brought up two boxes, one is his own belongings, the other is to fish, after the monk Zampa went ashore to find Zhao Lifan where they were in the grotto, and stayed.

Five years later, the monk Zampa died due to serious injuries in the inner house in the sea, which could not be cured, and wrote this biography before his death, according to the biography, the monk recorded his practice on a skin of an animal he did not know, but there was no leather in the wooden box.

Zhao Lifan turned his head after reading the biography and looked at it, Cheng Lu had fallen asleep leaning on the big box, the two of them were tied together last night, Cheng Lu didn't sleep well, Zhao Lifan took off his coat and covered her, and began to look around, he wanted to see if he could find the leather scroll, and sure enough, he found an abnormality on a stalactite on the top of the cave.
