Harman reached out for his phone, turned on the flashlight, and saw himself sitting in a thirty-square-square basement with a high staircase behind it, paved with bluestone and with uneven edges, which had been many years. There was a door ahead, but one man was tall, and it was tightly closed. Lima walked over and pushed hard, but there was no push, the door was made of iron, very strong, and Harman came too, looked around, and found no place where the lock was.

In desperation, Haman pointed to the top and said, "Go back and see?" Lima carefully stepped on the steps, step by step, and came to the end, Lima's head hit a stone slab, he stretched out his hand and carefully pushed up, but there was no push, he turned back to Haman and said, "I can't push, is it pressed from above?" Haman felt impossible, if the enemy found out that there was a tunnel here, could he still not come down and search? He said, "I'll take a look." ”

Lima stepped back and let him go up, Harman walked up slowly, his head hit the slate, he stretched out his hand, pushed hard, the slate did not move, Haman was not reconciled, he touched the gap on the four sides of the slate with his hand, and pushed it again, the slate turned up, but the other side turned over. It turns out that this is a mechanism, there is a shaft in the middle, both sides can be rotated, press one side, the other side will turn up, and the person can come down.

Haman stuck out his head and listened carefully to the movement outside, there was no sound outside, and it was estimated that all the people had withdrawn, probably to search elsewhere. Harman turned and beckoned to Lima, and slowly climbed up, followed by Lima. The two of them got out of the incense case, and it was empty outside, and there was no one there. They didn't dare to be careless, so they carefully bent their waists and slipped out along the incense case, and no one could be heard outside.

The two of them hurriedly ran to the side hall, climbed the pillar, and got out of the window, it was still dark outside, and shouts were heard from time to time, but there was no figure around the hall. Haman hurriedly slid to the ground from the back against the wall, and Lima followed, and the two of them walked back the way they came, going around and around, dodging surveillance and no mobile sentry, and it seemed that they had made a big move tonight, drawing people in.

The two of them withdrew smoothly, barely seeing a single person, and successfully climbed over the wall and escaped. The two of them ran out of two streets, and a taxi came up, and Haman stopped him and told him that he was going to the Kovalam Retreat, and the driver pointed in the opposite direction and said, "The retreat is over there, you are going the wrong way." Haman hurriedly closed the door and said, "Let's go, don't you miss the car." ”

The driver smiled, expressed understanding, and said: "Of course, I am the only one who comes out to solicit customers at this point, and everyone is still sleeping." When they were seated, the driver said to them, "You're not local, are you?" Seeing that he was very talkative, Harman was afraid that Lima would accidentally slip his mouth, so he hurriedly said, "Yes, I heard that there are many people here for retreat, and we are here to study." ”

When Lima heard this, he pouted his lips and said in his heart, "This Haman, like his brother, comes with a lie, and it is a pity not to be an official." Harman saw his expression in the rearview mirror, knowing what he was thinking, he also pouted, you hesitate, what do you know, if it were up to you, everything would be told to others.

The two of them were arguing here, but the driver didn't feel it at all, and he continued: "You are not from the Temple of Demanaba Swami, I heard that something happened there. This sentence made the two of them panic, and Haman forced himself to calmly ask: "Yes, what happened, what is that place?" The driver glanced at him, Haman's heart skipped again, the driver surprised the two of them, but he didn't care, and said in a very flat tone: "I also heard that two thieves entered the Devanaba Swami Temple tonight, and they actually entered the main hall dedicated to Vishnu, and then disappeared, don't you think it's strange?"

After speaking, he glanced at Haman again, it was originally an ordinary small talk, a habitual action, but it made Haman feel as if he knew everything everywhere, and people with weak hearts thought a lot, he said casually: "Yes, strange, where did these two go, they won't become Bodhisattvas, right?" The driver laughed: "That's impossible, how can people become Bodhisattvas, it's almost the same where they hide, don't they all say that there are tunnels in this temple?" I guess they will definitely hide in the tunnels." ”

Haman and Lima didn't dare to say anything, and waited for his next words, but the driver saw that they didn't talk, and then continued: "Then, when those military and police officers have withdrawn, they ran out, and you say it may be impossible?" Lima finally couldn't help it, and said loudly: "Impossible, who has such great ability? The police want to catch it, isn't it killed?" The driver smiled slightly and did not speak.

The more Haman looked, the more frightened he became, the driver spoke insinuuously, as if he knew something, the three of them did not speak, the car was quiet for a while, and the driver spoke again: "You are going to the Kovalam Retreat Center, I still know one of the people there." Lima talked again: "I asked a person, do you recognize it, I heard that there is a high monk there, what is the name of Venerable Vima, do you know?" The driver smiled and said, "Coincidentally, I still know him alone." So coincidentally, Harman muttered to himself, and asked, "How do you know him?" The driver did not answer, and seemed to be difficult to say, but he felt that it was too rude not to answer, so he said, "Oh, once he went there in my car, and we met." He is a great man who has attained the Tao. ”

Lima asked with great interest: "But I heard that he is not there now, do you know where he has gone?" Harman felt that this Lima was talking more and more out of tune, this man was a taxi driver, how could he know these things, who knew that the driver spoke: "I know." Both of them were stunned, he really knew, and Lima was quick to ask, "Where have you been?" The driver replied, "I went to see my friend, but now that I have returned, you will see him when you arrive." ”
