78 Futu "Adventure"

He Mulan tossed and turned all night without sleeping, and Airan couldn't help herself because she cried, and she was afraid that she didn't have a good night's rest. Shan Zhuo has an amazing talent for sleeping peacefully no matter where he is or under any circumstances, and this night, on the contrary, he slept the best.

"Ai Ran, are you sure you want to do this?" He Mulan listened to Airan's request, "Even if I find out where the Bao'en Temple is, do you want to guard the empty temple alone?"

"No, I want to put Master's relics into the floating temple in the temple, and then ...... "The light in Ai Ran's eyes dimmed little by little." I'll go back to the mountains."

"In that case...... He Mulan thought for a moment and looked at Airan seriously: "You give me your master's bones, and I will place them for you."

"Huh?" Ai Dye seems to be a little obscure." Congratulations to the Lord to put it for me?"

"Hmm. After all, you are a novice, and if you are caught in the temple, even your life will be in danger. Moreover, you are not as good as me, so I sneaked into the Buddhist temple at night, found the floating temple, and placed it in it. No matter how mad the county magistrate here is, he will not rob the relics of the Shamen monks, and naturally he will not think that someone wants to sneak into the floating slaughter. Even if I get caught......"

He Mulan scratched his face and asked Shan Zhuo: "Do you think that with my fame, will I be disposed of?"

"I think so......" Shan Zhuo replied uncertainly.

"Tsk, my outdated general may not be very useful. If you really can't do it, you can go to Chen County to find Di Yefei to save me, or simply find His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to save me."

"…… Wouldn't it be too dangerous?"

"Come on, at the level of the county order here, I'm afraid that if I tell Di Yefei's official position, he will only dare to obediently 'invite' me to the cell with the best conditions. A maximum of a few days in jail. But love dyes him and wants to be caught......"

Ai dyed that expression, as if moved and wanted to cry again.

He Mulan was afraid of children and people crying, and this love dye accounted for both, and he was immediately so frightened that he stretched out his hand and waved his hand: "My little master, don't cry, cry again, your fish bubble eyes will burst!"

He Mullan had already thought about it last night, and although they tied her to their ranks without asking for her opinion, in the end, they respected her choice and let her go, without messing around or threatening her family, at least the prince was not a ruthless person.

Thinking about it like this, she felt a lot more comfortable.

Whether it is the prince or the emperor, for those who don't want to glorify their ancestors and don't want to be promoted to become rich, they are nothing more than two more eye-catching symbols. In that case, even if you have contact with them, why not? It's nothing more than being used.

She is not a fool, if the other party has malicious intentions, will she be cheated obediently?

"I'll go out and ask now, and I'll look at the terrain again. Ah Danzhuo, I don't know if there are any officers and soldiers in Bao'en Temple, you now take Ai Ran to prepare more food and things for you on the road, in case I am trapped, you can settle Ai Ran, ride my Yue Ying, and quickly go to Xiang County Taishou Mansion to find rescuers."

He Mulan got dressed and decided to dress himself up as a humble nobleman and go out again.

No matter how much the Xianbei people respect the Han people, now after all, it is the Xianbei people who are in charge, and the army is full of Xianbei people fighting again, and the people have a natural awe of the Xianbei people. He Mulan estimated that it would be very difficult for an outsider to inquire about these things, as at the beginning, but if Lord Xianbei came out to play and gave some benefits, it should be much easier than when he first entered the city.

So when she changed into the clothes she wore when she was ready to meet guests, and walked out of the door gracefully, even Xiao Er outside the door was much more polite to her.

Her idea was right, it only took half a day, she not only asked about Bao'en Temple, but was also led to the door of Bao'en Temple by a middle-aged man who seemed to be dissatisfied with this county order for a long time.

They probably regarded her as a Xianbei nobleman who visited her privately, and the worst was bigger than the greedy county magistrate here, so they were insinuating to her all kinds of unbearable county orders here, and how a good rich county became a place that even traveling merchants dare not set foot in.

Hua Mulan has been a general for so many years, and He Mulan was born in a world where she was born equal, and her bearing is not comparable to the ordinary people here, and it is not surprising that the people would guess like this. But the people here dare to confide in the local parents and officials without knowing her identity, which shows how much the county order here has aroused the people's anger.

"Originally, there was a bitter master in Bao'en Temple, who has been teaching our children from the poor family of Ping 6 to learn literacy, which is quite popular. There is a widow here, whose husband's surname is Zhang, who moved to the city because her mother-in-law's family was too vicious, and grew up with her young son by weaving cloth, and later sent her child to Bao'en Temple to learn calligraphy."

The middle-aged man's steps were steady, his upper arms were thick, and he wanted to do it with strength, "Later, the Son of Heaven ordered the monks to return to the world, and this bitter master was not yet fifty, and he did not want to return to the world, so he secretly hid in the people's homes and relied on the help of others to survive. This widow couldn't bear the suffering of her benefactor and secretly made offerings, but she was framed by the Jiang County Order, saying that she had something to do with the Master of Compassion, and not only was the Bao'en Temple sealed, but the things in the temple were also looted."

"The widow was beaten to death in prison, and the child of the widow Zhang went to the county to find Xianbei Taishou to avenge the grievances, originally this kind of thing, really investigated, the Jiang County Order is also going to be unlucky, who expected that the first month of the Buddha was destroyed, the Jiang County Order trembled again, and the Zhang family widow was placed on the responsibility of 'covering Shamen', and the widow of the Zhang family was hunted down everywhere, so that her family would be destroyed."

The middle-aged man's teeth rattled as he spoke, and his eyes were full of fierce light.

"I don't know how many more things like this. Bao'en Temple is in the city. [,! In the past, he received a lot of incense, and he was the most ruined. For example, Xulin Temple and Yuanlai Temple, one because there are Xianbei monks here, and the other because it is far away from the city, although it has also been looted, the old monks over 50 years old in the temple can at least survive......"

"Nobody cares? You said that the child of the Zhang family went to the county to file a complaint, what happened later? Did you get caught?" He Mullan asked him as if he had not yet done so

"Who cares! The Jiang County Commander has been here for seven years, which is longer than the term of the Taishou here. He's not a local, and he's even more unscrupulous. He pays enough taxes every year, and he is good at business, and no one can take him lightly. The boy was gone, and I don't know if he was dead or if he had run away."

The middle-aged man sighed for a long time and then suddenly stopped, stretched out his hand and pointed to the door in front of him: "Look, that's Bao'en Temple, and I can only take you here."

"You're the big brother." He Mulan arched his hand and took a box of salt from his sleeve pocket and gave it to him.

She got a lot of salt from Gao Jinlong before, and the salt at home was sufficient, so Hua Mu got a lot of small boxes of salt for her to stuff into the package, this thing is easy to change things and is not heavy, take it with you, if you don't eat anything outside, you can only do it, and you can also add some flavor by sprinkling some salt.

The middle-aged man didn't open the box in person, but when he took it, he shook it and knew that it was a powdery thing, although he didn't know what it was, he still left happily, leaving He Mulan to think deeply about the Bao'en Temple.

Everything in the temple has been robbed, but it is a good thing for her. Such an empty temple should not attract the attention of the government.

But just because the temple is empty doesn't mean it's useless. Such a large place is either a temporary shelter for rangers and wanderers, or it has been used or will be used for other purposes by the government. There is an errand officer patrolling at the door, which means that this Taishou surnamed Jiang must still want to pay attention to this temple and use it again.

He Mulan figured out where the back door and the side door of the temple were, and found the five-story Futu Pagoda in the corner, and then returned to the inn and told him what he knew.

As soon as Airan heard He Mulan's words, his face suddenly turned as white as gold paper, and his body trembled.

"Compassion, compassion is my uncle's name." He shook his feet a few times, and suddenly sat down on the ground. My master said that my uncle was a man of great compassion, how could he end up like this?"

"The evil of the county order here lies in the disregard for human ethics and forgetting righteousness for profit, you must not show your face, let alone say that you are the nephew of the master of mercy, the widow of the Zhang family died in prison, who knows what means he has. You are weak and the world is sinister, so it makes sense to protect yourself first." He Mulan touched the door of Ai's slippery head. Because no one has shaved his head for many days, he can already feel the feel of the thorns, and the green stubble has grown a lot, but he doesn't realize it at all, so you can know how flustered he is.

"Give me the relics at night, and I'll help you place them in the tower."

He Mulan didn't have to wade into this troubled water, as long as he persuaded the little monk to go back. But when this monk went down the mountain, he just wanted to bury his master well and find a place to return, but now that his home is gone, at least let the master of the family "return to the roots".

Just like the bud that Ai Dye saw that morning, Hermulan can't save the dead tree that has no power to return to the sky, and there is no way to make the bud bloom, but it's always good to take a look at the bud and make it come in vain.

"You, you are so good to me, how can I repay ......" Airan began to wipe her tears again, "I have no long things, I don't even have anything to do for you, and you still have to risk ...... for me"

"Love dye, don't cry." Hermulan patted him. Do you know why I'm helping you?"

"Because, because you have a good heart."

"Because I want to sue you that there are bad people and good people under the mountain. There are villains who take advantage of His Majesty's decree to persecute monks, and there are also zealous people who are willing to help you without fear of danger. You are still young now, and you have a long life to come, so don't be intimidated by such things, don't want to trust anyone anymore, and put yourself in a cage called 'Buddha.'"

Ai Ran's tears stopped, and he muttered with a red nose, "Cage?"

"You said that you were born to be a shaman, and there is nothing vulgar to return, so you were born to succumb to reality, don't you? Even if you want to be vulgar now, it is nothing more than succumbing to reality again. If you can learn to be a shaman, you can learn to be a lay disciple. Believe me, being an ordinary person is not more difficult than being a monk, most people are not as good as you, at least you are literate, aren't you?"

Hermulan patted Ai Dye on the shoulder. When I send your Master's bones back to the temple, you can consider taking a look at it."

"It's not a sin to be a monk, but it's not a terrible thing to be an ordinary person. Do you think I'm scary?" He asked him with a smile.

"No, you're a bit fierce at times, but you're a very nice person." Ai Ran remembered Hermulan's expression when he "touched the wall".

He Mulan froze slightly and touched his nose.

"Be an ordinary person, and you will meet countless people like me. Although you will meet bad people, but bad people will not harm you for no reason, you can understand such profound Buddhist scriptures, why can't you understand the world? It seems to me that there is no difference between them."

"If you still want to be a monk, Ah Danzhuo and I will send you back to Yunbai Mountain. If you want to try and be like us, we can teach you that."

"I ...... I'll think about it." Airan unwrapped the package in her arms and handed her a palm-sized copper box, the corners of the box were round, it didn't look like a box, but like a coffin." This is my Master's bone relic. If you feel dangerous, don't take any chances, and go to jail. [,! ] and so on......"

He Mulan took the box and smiled slightly.

"Ah, I haven't been in prison yet. It's also an experience to go in and stay once in a while."

Shan Zhuo frowned.

But he knew that Aunt Hua had always had a lot of ideas, so he didn't persuade him more.

The process of Hermulan sneaking into the Bao'en Temple was extremely easy, and she entered the Bao'en Temple almost without resistance.

The night in ancient times was completely different from the modern one, and if there were at least street lamps or other lighting in modern times, the ancient night was pitch black as if it could swallow people, and even if there were lanterns, it could not dispel much darkness.

He Mulan does not have night vision, nor does he carry a torch to fold, he can climb over the wall in the middle of the night instead of hitting the wall headlong, because there is a night pearl in her batch of jewels rewarded by the emperor, she has seen the list of rewards, this bead is called "Sui Zhu", there is only one, but the size of a date, He Mulan likes this fluorite very much, often takes it out to play, this time out, also brought out.

The Night Pearl was probably very valuable in ancient times, but Muller came from the modern era, and grew up in a place where even plastic could be made into light, and a Night Pearl was really nothing, and it was used as a small light bulb that could illuminate the feet.

Said to be a wall, in fact, it is a little higher than a person, He Mulan casually kicked on the ground, and with his extraordinary arm strength he did a pull-up, climbed to the wall, and jumped down.

"No wonder it was so easy to be a hero in ancient times." He Mulan looked at the wall, "It's so short, where do you need any light work?"

Think about the fence in your own house......

Ahem. The ancient folk customs are really good.

He Mulan stumbled to find the stupa and circled around it, completely dumbfounded.

"Where's the door?"

He Mulan went around and didn't find the door.

It can't be without a door.

If there is no door, where will the Buddha bones of those monks be placed!

She didn't give up, she held the luminous bead and touched it carefully, only then did she touch a little gap. When she leaned over to take a look, she was stunned again.

It turned out that there was not a door, but that the door of the Futu was sealed by a few wooden boards, and in this dark night, even if there was a green glow of the night pearl, it did not look very obvious. The doorway was sealed with wooden planks outside, and He Mullan walked around, naturally not finding the low door.

What to do?

To go or to stay?

"Master, did you hear anything?"

The little novice, whose hair was already two inches long, sat up at once and shook his master.

The monk was about thirty-one or twelve years old, and he was lazy and had no energy, and he didn't even bother to open his eyes when he heard the words of the little novice: "I didn't hear any sound."

"There really is a voice!" The novice listened." There's movement downstairs."

"It's not that the building moves, it's your heart that moves." The middle-aged monk turned over, "We don't have much food, and now we don't know what's going on outside, and we don't know how long we have to stay, move less, and live longer."

"But Master, is there a thief?" The little novice shrank back in fear. Otherwise, it's the 'demon' that Master said?"

"Which thief came to the Floating Slaughter to steal something. Do you want to steal bones and go back to make soup?" The middle-aged monk rolled his eyes. At the same age, you're not as cute as my little brother at all. If the thief comes, the two of us will play dead to make sure that the thief is more afraid than we are."

"Amitabha, Master, you have a stoma again....... Master, are you sure?" Little Shami shrunk and pricked up his ears. The uncles sealed the door so tightly that even if there were thieves, they couldn't open it, right?"

He watched the thick planks be nailed up. There is an official errand outside, even if you want to nail it firmly, you can't get through.

"I'm sure, I'm sure...... Hiss, no, it's a sound." The lazy monk suddenly straightened up slightly. Boy, it's not like you've been robbed......"

"…… Why do I think it's a bear?".

He Mullan observed the door panels slightly, and after making sure that they were nailed into the stone wall with iron nails, he began to shake them and pull them out.

If you have enough strength, you should be able to pull these door panels off without breaking the strange nails. Wait for her to come out after putting the Buddha bones, and then go out of the door, and then follow the position of the pit again, pick up a stone and nail it back.

He Mullan reached out and grabbed both sides of the plank and pulled it out, for fear of breaking it, she used it very carefully. In the silence of the Buddhist temple, the sound of "rattling and rattling" from under the floating temple was very distinct, and it sounded like the sound of a skeleton sitting up from a coffin.

Rao is He Mulan does not believe in ghosts and gods, and his heart is also frightened by this imagination, and the movements in his hands are also stopped.

At this moment, the silence around her was more terrible than the sound of the door panel, she took a deep breath, muttering to herself to relieve the terrible atmosphere, while concentrating on the work at hand.

"I'm a forensic doctor, and I just look at bones and bones, so what's there to be afraid of. Besides, they are all relics, and they are not graves, and there are no corpses."

"I thought it was just to sneak in and deliver something and come out, at most open the lock or something, and I didn't think I would have to work hard."

"I don't know what it's like inside this stupa. Hey, what it looks like has nothing to do with me, this black light is blinding, can I still go to the pagoda for a day trip?"

She continued to hold on to the planks until she had pulled them off, and then she gently pushed the tower. [,! ] of the stone gate, drilled in.

"Master, Master, I don't think it's a bear downstairs......" Xiao Shami hunched over and crawled to his master's side, "It looks like a monster."

The master of the little novice also became nervous, and recited the Buddha's name over and over again in his heart, but his mouth was very hard: "What nonsense, we have the Buddha in our hearts, and the demons do not invade, I don't think there are monsters coming in, it is you who have demons."

"But Master, didn't you hear the sound of mantras from below?" Little Shami's ass was already leaning against his master's waist." I've heard about bones and bones. Is there some monster coming to steal the Buddha's bone relics?"

The sound floated upward, and it was the middle of the night, and the sound was especially noticeable. Xiao Shami was also a child of an ordinary family before he left home, when he was a child, he heard the mother-in-law tell stories at home, it is said that some monsters and evil ghosts like to steal some Buddha bones of Taoist monks, or the body of Taoist priests, either to increase cultivation, or to borrow the corpse to resurrect the soul, he is still young, not long after becoming a monk, at first glance, he remembered all the ghost stories of the New Year when he was a child, and he scared himself half to death.

"Ghosts are scary where there are." The middle-aged monk recited the Buddha's name. Wakaba, if you are in an unstable state of mind, the teacher will punish you to recite the Mahaprajnaparamita Sutra a hundred times."

"Yes, Master." The little monk named Wakaba bit his lip and began to memorize the Buddhist scriptures. …… Revealing the truth, revealing the truth, revealing the truth, revealing the truth of the Polo monk......"

The master punished people for reciting scriptures again, and he didn't want to think about how many days it hadn't rained, and the water was almost gone, and his mouth was dry on his back, so should he drink water later?

He also said that there is a Buddha in his heart, and demons and evil will not invade. There is a Buddha in my heart...... There is a Buddha......

If there was a Buddha, he would do that kind of thing at the bottom of the tower!.

He Mulan finally broke open the door, gently pushed open the low stone door that was not one meter high, and got inside.

For a big man like her, who is more than 1.7 meters, this stone gate is really too short. But when he thought that this was not a pagoda for people to play, but a floating temple where the Buddha's bones and corpses were parked, He Mulan didn't think much about it.

She held the night pearl, and as soon as she entered the first floor of this floating slaughter, she was dizzy from the smell in it, and she wanted to rush out of the door.

I rub, what does this smell like!

It's like the dogs in the downstairs neighborhood are pooping at the door of her house, and it's like passing by the lake with river mussels, and it's a bit like a vegetable patch that has just been fertilized.

No, it's scarier than that!

He Mullan covered his nose, tears were about to fall.

If she hadn't dissected rotting corpses before, and had assisted the archaeology department of N University in conducting forensic research on ancient corpses, she would have mistaken this smell for the smell of rotting corpses.

What's the situation, how can there be a smell worse than the smell of rotting corpses!

In the pure land of Buddhism, even if the monks are dead, the Buddha's bones will not stink!

He Mulan originally wanted to put this copper box somewhere on the first floor, but the smell was so disgusting that He Mullan didn't even think about it, so he went to the wooden ladder in the middle of the bottom of the tower and went to the second floor to place it.

This tower is almost like it's alive!

Why do you say that, because there is occasionally a soft touch under the soles of the feet, it is like stepping on intestines or internal organs or something, and the feet are still a little sticky when you walk.

He Mulan suddenly remembered that he had played so many Xianxia RPG rangers, what kind of demon tower that eats people is actually the stomach of the monster, what is a fantasy in a certain map, in fact, there are a few monsters disguised out of a map and waiting for the protagonist to step on thunder and so on.

He Mulan originally thought that he had the divine power of Mulan, and he had so many years of experience in the modern industry, unless he really saw the resurrection of the deceased, he would not be frightened by anything.

But when she was in this empty stupa, in this strange and unpleasant smell, the lingering smell that seemed to linger on the tip of her nose, and the terrible walking sensation of stepping on the wooden ladder rattling and sticky touch......

He Mulan inexplicably felt the urge to go to the toilet.
