Chapter 7: Quicksand Paradise

"It's not about using some props, hum!" Zhu Jiujiu glanced at Bai Mu angrily, but Zhang Tianzheng was slightly stunned and exclaimed: "Could it be the one who has become famous recently?"

"Exactly. Bai Mu smiled slightly, and said lightly: "Actually, it's just some tricks to deceive people, but in order to make some incense money, I can't take care of these things, give a nice name, everyone just ask for peace of mind." ”

"How is it famous?" Zhu Jiujiu was also interested when he heard this fame, and opened his mouth to ask: "How do you play, let's take a look." ”

"Seeing is believing, a few people might as well go and see, on weekdays, this is not seen. Bai Mu smiled, led the three of them through several halls, to a delicate courtyard, as soon as the door opened, the eyes of the three of them lit up, and even He Qi sighed: "I didn't expect to see this desert scenery between the green mountains and beautiful waters, I think it took a lot of effort, right?"

"It's just some handling. Bai Mu nodded, don't look at what he said plainly, but the proud look is still clearly revealed, He Qi said that it is the desert scenery, naturally it is exaggerated, but the style in this small courtyard is indeed not lost to any place in this Jiucang Mountain, although it has not been as rough and vast as the landform blown out by the wind and sand on the desert over the years, but it is better to take advantage of the situation, this small courtyard is followed by the high cliff of Jiucang Mountain, a sea of yellow sand from the courtyard gate to the high cliff is undulating, the cape in the Buddha Ruo that Buddhist scriptures are in general, and the faint appearance is the ancient building that is covered by the yellow sand, a gust of wind blows, the sand and dust is like a paintbrush, the sand sea becomes hazy and real, this arrangement, even if you don't take it out to deceive people, it is very attractive to make a view.

"Senior brother, senior brother!" Just when He Qi and the others were amazed, the little monk Qingsui suddenly came in from behind the door, gasped and said to Bai Mu: "There is a guest who came here and wanted to donate a sum of money to let his father sleep in." ”

"What?" Zhu Jiujiu was stunned and asked puzzledly, "Why is this sand and heaven used for sleeping?"

"Naturally not, here, it's a Buddha mound. Bai Mu couldn't help but laugh and said: "The so-called sleep in, is to say that you want to bury the urn here, after seeing the magic of this sand and a paradise, many people believe that as long as you are buried in it, you can go to the legendary paradise to enjoy endless wealth, originally just a gimmick, but just a gimmick, so much investment is in vain, it is better to make a Buddha mound, please have the heart of the Buddha lay people to live here." ”

"It's not a money scam. Zhu Jiujiu pursed his lips and followed He Qi to the side, at this time, two monks also appeared not far from the far gate, but in the blink of an eye, he stood on the sea of sand with a middle-aged pot-bellied man with a sad face.

The two monks are not too old, after entering the door, they glanced at the four of Bai Mu and turned their heads, one held the Buddha beads and chanted the words, and the other recited Amitabha Buddha, put his hands together and bowed slightly to the big fat man, and said in a low voice: "Master Sun, here, is the sand and a paradise of this temple, please return to the throne." ”

"I, shall I go?" The big fat man was stunned, and when he saw the monk smiling and nodding, he touched a handful of tears, carefully held the urn and walked a few steps into the courtyard, and turned his head a little helplessly and asked, "Master, this, where is this?"

"Wherever you come from, where you go, dust to dust, dust to dust, everywhere you put it, it's the same. The monk smiled and said lightly: "There is bliss in my heart, I am safe, Lord Sun invites me." ”

"Well, here it is. The fat man thought about it, walked a few steps forward, found a high little sand dune and carefully placed the urn, knelt down and kowtowed three times, muttered a few words, and then walked down crying, clasped his hands together like a monk, and said in a dumb voice: "Then hand it over to the master." ”

"Master Sun, wait for a while, and watch the poor monk open this method. The monk nodded, restrained his smile, his face gradually became serious, waved the rosary in his hand, and recited aloud: "Fang Zhu Tianzun, its number is like sand and dust, transforming into the ten realms, Puji is a celestial person, acknowledging merits, saving sinners with one voice, sinners are really sad, I am talking about the wonderful scriptures today, chanting without rest, returning without pause, heaven enjoys great blessings, and hell has no bitter sound... Ten thousand times the heart is cleared. ”

"It's moving, it's moving!" Zhu Jiujiu covered his mouth and exclaimed in a low voice, in this solemn voice, the sea of sand suddenly changed, the originally static sand dunes twitched violently, there was no wind, but the hills and ravines suddenly rose and fell in the sand sea like the waves of the sea, but in the blink of an eye, the high sand dunes disappeared in front of everyone's eyes, and the urn on the sand dunes was also in this collapse, and there was no shadow in an instant, and the sea of sand that devoured the urn also stopped squirming like a giant beast that only got food satisfaction, and slowly fell silent, a gust of wind blew, blowing the fine sand grains, and making a hoarse sound, which made Zhu Jiujiu shiver strangely。

"Master Sun, the old gentleman has already gone to the Western Elysium, this is the matter, please go back. Also stunned there was the big fat man surnamed Sun, until the monk reminded him, he reacted, hurriedly recited a few words of Amitabha, and then walked out of the courtyard step by step.

"Did you break it?" After a while, Bai Mu looked at He Qi with a smile, and said with great confidence: "I won't tell you, I spend a paradise, I don't know how many people have come to see it, there are many people in a province with vicious eyes, business elites, but in the end, I didn't take out the money in a daze, and sighed that the Dharma is boundless..."

"It's true that quicksand is uncommon. Bai Mu said proudly, but he didn't want He Qi to say such a sentence lightly, he opened his mouth wide in surprise, and the smugness on his face froze there, and he said with a wry smile for a while: "I can't think of this, this can't be difficult for you, it's really, really unexpected." ”

"It's really ingenious, even if you have some doubts, but as long as you go up and walk once, then you will break the mind, you can say, if it's quicksand, why are people never swallowed when they go up?" He Qi smiled, strode into the sea of sand, smiled and waved his hand to Zhu Jiujiu, who remembered that he almost jumped up, and said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, the water under here has been pumped away, otherwise the pilgrims who have a heart will come and walk again, and they can't afford to be swallowed, but this project is inevitably a little too big." ”

"It's a big project, otherwise it wouldn't have taken 200,000 people. Bai Mu said with a wry smile: "First of all, I made a drainage system according to the standard of the swimming pool, and then spent a lot of money to buy a lot of high-power water conveyance machines, every time I turned on, the water money alone would cost tens of thousands, and I had to overhaul it on weekdays.

"What the hell is going on?" Zhu Jiujiu asked blankly: "Can quicksand also be artificial?"

"Quicksand is actually a very simple thing, like a swamp. He Qi smiled and explained: " The principle of quicksand is that the rise of groundwater reduces the friction between the sand particles, so that the sand can not bear the weight and flow, the same is true of this set of devices, there are many faucets below, when it is not opened, please stand up and place the urn, at that time the sand under the feet is extremely strong, hundreds of people will not appear in any situation, wait for it to be put down, when people walk down, they begin to chant the scriptures, whether it is a Buddhist scripture or a Taoist scripture, just find some tirade like just now to do the method, take advantage of this time to turn on the faucet, spray a large amount of groundwater into it, it will form quicksand, wait for the urn to be swallowed in, and then discharge the water out。 ”

He Qi smiled, squatted down, dug a small sand pit, held a handful of soaked sand and said: "However, as long as you have the heart, you can still find some clues, but it's not that you can't explain it, just say that it's raining and something like that, you can hide it, indeed, it's a trick." ”

"Haven't you seen through it?" Zhu Jiujiu glared at Bai Mu triumphantly and smiled: "Boasting so much, how about it, at a glance, you can see through it at a glance, you, learn hard, this kind of thing is much better than you." ”

"It's too early, since everyone has a draw, why don't you have another game?" Bai Mu's face sank, his brows furrowed, but he soon laughed again, and said lightly: "The ruler is long, the inch is short, losing a game doesn't mean that you will always lose, the person who laughs last will laugh the best, isn't it?"

"Whether it's a small trick or a big trick, even if you use it, I'm afraid you're a puppy!" Zhu Jiujiu unceremoniously pulled the He Qi and glared at Bai Mu-for-tat.

"It's okay to compare, but there must be a lottery. He Qi smiled, squinted his eyes, and said slowly: "The thing that I want to do when I come to Jiucang Mountain this time, you might as well tell it as a story, let us listen to it." ”

"That's not a trick. Bai Mu shook his head with a smile, and then said, "But if you are willing to compete with me again, maybe, I will know everything, and I will say everything." ”

"What is small and what is big?" He Qi asked in a deep voice with a slight frown.

"The small one is like the little gadgets like Zhu Youshen, add a little street trickery, don't need any big scenes, a few small props can be made, three games and two wins, if you win, I will give up the territory of this Jiucang Mountain, you demolish this Jiucang Temple, keep it or not, it's all up to you, if I win, our previous grievances will be written off, and they will use their skills in the future. ”

"What's that big one?" Zhu Jiujiu hurriedly asked.

"Wait until you win, and you'll know the big one. Bai Mu smiled, looked at the clouds that were gradually accumulating in the sky, and suddenly said for no reason: "It's going to change the sky..."
