Sonorous!

The two wooden doors, which I don't know how long it has been using, have no patent leather, and are full of rough wood wool on the surface, look like abandoned old houses in the wilderness.

Squeak, squeak......

There was movement inside, and someone removed the wooden bolt to pull the door open, and the door shaft made an unpleasant friction.

"Three donors, the little monk is polite, is there anything wrong?" The little monk who opened the door looked about fourteen or fifteen, and his immature face was full of innocence.

"Little master, we want to meet the host again, and we still need to know something about what happened outside!" Lin Xin stepped forward and said with a pleasant face.

"But, Master is chanting sutras and worshipping Buddha, and haven't you already asked Sister Officer?" the little monk pursed his mouth a little unhappily.

"That's right, but there are some situations that haven't been asked clearly, more than 1,000 people have disappeared, such a big matter must be investigated, right?" Lin Xin's tone was a little more serious.

"That's... Okay!" Thinking about it, what Lin Xin said was also right, the little monk stepped back and opened half of the door completely.

When you cross the threshold about 40 centimeters high, you will be greeted by a view of the temple.

The entrance is a courtyard at the beginning, and on the left is a fence made of straw and mud and bricks, which is rough and uneven, and looks like it will fall at any time.

Directly in front of it is a side hall with a closed door, and on the right are several houses that look like they were for monks.

In the middle of the side hall and the room, there is a path leading to the backyard, about two people wide, with a round door decoration.

"Come with me, preside over the main hall at the back. "The little monk led the way in front.

"Little master, how old is this tree?" asked Gao Shan as he passed in front of the meditation room on the right, and asked the old tree standing in front of the meditation room.

"It's been hundreds of years...", and the little monk scratched his head a little uncertainly: "I also listened to what the senior brothers and uncles said, this tree seems to have been around this tree since the temple was not built, and the small temple was built around this tree.

The presiding officer who built this temple said that there was an old tree whose roots had penetrated into the belly of the mountain and firmly grasped the earth and rocks, and it could not be safer here. ”

Gao Shan nodded in agreement, if this tree was really hundreds of years old, its roots would probably have firmly climbed the entire mountain, maybe it had extended to the belly of the mountain.

But it wasn't the bare appearance of the tree that stopped him, nor the huge rhizomes that lifted up the ground so thick that it was surrounded by a man.

But in this tree, he seemed to perceive something?

Gao Shan, who was not so sure, raised his hand, and a faint green haze shot forward from his cuffs, and was not noticed by the little monk in the direct sunlight.

"Let's go, it's the right thing to go to see the host. Pretending that nothing had happened, they turned around and made their way to the backyard through a wooden archway.

A standard rectangular courtyard with a large hall in the center, which looks like it is about 40 square meters.

Between the main hall and the left wall, there is a very ordinary bungalow.

There was a neatly sized stack of firewood at the door, and a robe and hat hung next to the paper window.

There is a fishing rod erected next to the robe, which is made of a wooden pole itself, and from these alone, the image of the people living in it is three-dimensional and plump in mind.

"There must be a worldly master who is indifferent to fame and fortune and likes mountains and rivers and nature!" several people thought in unison.

It's just that compared with the images churning in Shangguan and Lin Xin's minds, Gao Shan's eyes have already seen the scene of the little monk wearing a lily robe and a lily hat, holding a fishing rod to swim in the mountains and waters.

"Three donors, the abbot invites you to come in. "The little monk who went to report is back.

"Thank you, little master. Lin Xin politely bowed to the little monk and thanked him.

The short hair of the shawl was scattered, and the faint fragrance from the woman's body rushed to his face, making the little monk hurriedly wave his hand and retreat, and ran sideways outside the courtyard.

"Hehe, Captain Lin's charm is really unspeakable, even the Buddha is tempted. Gao Shan said deliberately teasingly.

"Don't talk nonsense. Lin Xin glanced at him angrily, and turned his head to look at the main hall with a little awe in his eyes.

Although as a public official, you must believe in the party, government and science, but Lin Xin grew up with her grandmother......

There are countless theories about ghosts and ghosts in the countryside, and she had a serious illness when she was a child, and it was useless to find a few doctors.

My grandmother had been a believer in teaching all her life, and she invited a few 'sisters' from the church that night.

Lin Xin only remembered that there were a few women wearing white hats and white god servants sitting under the pit, and they were 'humming' about something.

Then she fell asleep, and when she woke up the next day, she was really cured.

This incident is Lin Xin's deepest memory when she was a child, and since then she has stayed away from these ghosts and gods, and she can't hide from them and reciprocate in awe.

"Master Host, we're here to bother again. Standing outside the door of the main hall, you can see an old monk with a rickety back and a thin figure sitting in the center of the main hall.

Gao Shan was standing beside Lin Xin at this moment, but he didn't look at the host, but looked up at the statue of the god enshrined in the hall.

The Jiji Bodhisattva, as it is often called, is also called the Great Wish Jizo King Bodhisattva, 'This is rare!' Takayama said to himself in his heart.

"You may be seated. "The old host behaved very kindly and easy-going, neither pretending nor pretending, speaking straightforwardly, simple and clear.

After the greetings, Gao Shan first looked at Lin Xin, then at Shangguan, and found that neither of them meant to speak.

"Master Presiding, I would like to ask where were the other monks last night, except for the two monks who kept vigil?" Gao Shan asked with a reluctant salute to the host.

He didn't believe in these things, but he still bowed to the old host, and he regarded it as following the customs.

"Naturally, I was resting, and it was late at night. The old host said naturally.

"Oh?" Gao Shan said as he looked at him with a stunned expression, "When such a strange thing happened outside, didn't those two little monks who kept vigil scream?

I've been staring at the fog outside for 2 hours, and then I didn't know to call someone until I was young?"

The old host said unhurriedly: "Fog is actually very common in the mountains, especially in summer and autumn.

The two of them just thought it was an accident and didn't pay much attention to it, and when they found out that the head was gone, they rushed to report to me!"

What the old host said was reasonable, and for a while Gao Shan was asked by him, and instinctively wanted to put this question aside.

"No, no, I remember a little master said earlier that he went to the main hall to see his watch when the fog was up... It's the one that says it lasts 2 hours. ”

Lin Xin pointed to hiding half of his body outside the door, his stomach bulging, and his face was also bulging, like a little monk like Maitreya Buddha.

Staring at him with the eyes of the interrogator, the look in his eyes clearly said: "Are you lying?"
