The red light swayed, and the two novices walked in with lanterns, and the slightly taller novice on the left squinted, looked left and right, and said with a smile: "Amitabha, so many women, all of them are the same when they take off their clothes, I don't know which one the senior brother is talking about?" ”

The little novice sighed, "Idiot! Liu Yuanwai likes the brand word the most, and since she is the concubine of the Liu Mansion, she must have a brand on her shoulder. He lifted the lantern and shone it along the wooden couch one by one.

Xu Xuan was shocked, could it be that these women were actually hidden here by monks from Emei Mountain for sexual pleasure? He admired the Taoist Buddha since he was a child, although he heard the Qing guests at home tell some stories about the wives and daughters of lewd monks, but they were only exaggerated words, and today they have heard it with their own eyes, and they are still a little unbelievable in their ears.

The tall novice casually pinched a woman's body, and said with a smile: "The concubines of the Liu Mansion are all beautiful, and it's a pity to let her go so soon." Liu Yuanwai begged for a son, so he simply asked the senior brother to make up a reason, saying that if he wanted Guanyin to send his son, he needed to let her fast and chant in the East Chamber, and stay for more time. When you get a big belly, and then send it back to Liu's mansion, wouldn't everyone be happy? ”

The little novice snorted and said, "Since the death of Master Mingkong, demons have been rampant on the mountain for several days. Our White Lotus Temple's donations to the Liu Mansion donated the most, and the abbot naturally did not want to resent. Do you think you are one of those village girls who can be taken captive casually and thrown in a hole when you get tired of playing? ”

The tall novice smiled: "Those are medicine residues, and if you survive them, you will throw them away, so naturally there is no pity." This chick is like a rock tea in Fujian, you need to brew it a few times to have fun. In my opinion, most of the abbots were afraid that the Tibetan lamas would look at the women of the Liu Mansion and make it difficult to clean up, so they pushed the boat down the river and sent them down the mountain. ”

While the two of them were looking for a lantern, they accosted each other without saying a word. Xu Xuan could hear the ins and outs behind the curtain, and became more and more angry.

It turned out that in order to practice the demon art of the "Happy Buddha" and the like, these thieves colluded with the Tibetan prostitute monks to take all the women who were slightly beautiful among the pilgrims into this secret room and used incense to humiliate them. The pile of white bones I saw just now was the corpse of a woman who was killed and discarded by them. I also thought of the female skeleton I saw in the Water Curtain Cave, and I calculated that most of them were also the work of these thieves.

Although the White Lotus Temple is not a big temple in Emei Mountain, it is also a famous temple with extremely prosperous incense in Shuzhong, but it is a lewd cave that does all kinds of evil!

Lin Lingsu sneered: "Boy, do you know who the real demon is now?" Under the guise of the Buddha, these thieves are all over the place, secretly defrauding people of money, adulterating their wives and daughters, and they don't know how many sins they have done! From Lao Tzu left this place to today, it has been 60 years, if there is really a Buddha in the West, why not rain thunder and chop all these bald donkeys to death? ”

Xu Xuan's nature is uneven, a little unruly and extreme, although he knows that Lin Lingsu hates the various factions of Taoism and Buddhism, this remark is inevitably partial and comprehensive, and there is a suspicion of provocation, but when he sees this, he still can't help but feel related, and the root of his teeth is itchy.

Secretly thought: "Not to mention that the White Lotus Temple has been hiding dirt and dirt for so long, and no one notices it. It is only said that Ge Xianren was the emperor who subdued the demon emperor and went to death with his body, and the huge Emei Mountain, except for the Ming Kong master and the little monk of Nafahai, no one stepped forward and helped each other, how can they be worthy of the word 'mercy'! "I can't help but feel disgusted and contemptuous about Emei.

The two novices didn't notice it, and when they walked up to the drapery with the lantern, the little novice said, "It's her!" He pulled a crouched woman up from the couch.

Bai Suzhen had listened to it for so long, and she had already made a murderous move, and as soon as she bent down, she immediately jumped out of Xu Xuan's back, and the ribbon flew around his neck like a cloud, and with a "clatter", his neck bone was instantly broken.

The tall novice was taken aback, and before he could turn around, his neck was already pressed against Xu Xuan's cold "dragon tooth" knife, and he was trembling with fright, and he couldn't spit out a word.

Lin Lingsu laughed and said, "This bald donkey, practicing Tesha. Take the vows on the top of the cloud mountain. I have never been obsessed with the people of Yulou, and the quail clothes are helpless. The poisonous hand hurts people, and the flower face is shattered. Where is the color of emptiness? The stab between the arms is bitter lovesickness, and this time the lovesick debt is repaid. ”

This poem "Tasha Xing" was originally written by Su Dongpo when he was the prefect of Hangzhou, when he tried the case of rape and murder of prostitutes by a monk in Lingyin Temple, and it is appropriate for him to use it here.

Xu Xuanzheng wanted to kill him with a knife, seeing that the figure of the lady of the Liu Mansion was similar to Bai Suzhen, and the little novice who was killed was about the same size as himself, his heart moved, and he shouted in a low voice: "If you want to live, you must honestly listen to my arrangement, otherwise I will chop you into meat paste and feed the dogs." ”

The novice's face was as earth-colored as the nodding of his head.

Xu Xuandao: "Where is Liu Yuanwai now? How many people does your temple plan to send to escort Liu Yuanwai down the mountain? ”

Sha Mi said in a trembling voice: "Liu Yuanwai has been living in the temple for seven days, and the carriage is waiting outside the east wing. Now the mountains and mountains are full of demons and Taoist sects, and the abbot sent my senior brother Mao Ziyuan to lead eight senior brothers to escort him back to Chengdu Mansion ......"

Chengdu? Xu Xuan was overjoyed in his heart, "Renjitang" has a branch in Chengdu, and has a deep friendship with the local government, and when he arrives there, it is like arriving at home.

The signal sent by the "Flying Sword Gate" Taoist priest before he died has probably attracted the various sects of the Dao Sect to the "Ghost Seeing Sorrow" Canyon, and now is the best time for the golden cicada to come out of its shell!

Immediately grabbed a cockroach from the ground, stuffed it into the mouth of the tall novice, and forced him to swallow it. As soon as Xu Xuangang let go of his hand, he hurriedly picked and dug and retched, but he couldn't spit it out.

Xu Xuan said with a smile: "Don't worry, this 'Seven Poisons Desperate Gu' is very well-behaved, and without my orders, it won't eat your heart, liver and intestines." But if you don't listen to me and do something crooked, then it's a different story. ”

Stripped off the monk's robe of the little novice, put it on himself, put on the monk's hat, turned around and said: "This female benefactor, the poor monk escorted you back to Chengdu Liufu, what do you mean?" The light was dim, and at first glance, it looked a little similar to the little novice.

Only then did Bai Suzhen understand what he wanted, and smiled.

The tunnel is winding, the stone steps are swirling upward, and it takes half a column of incense to reach the top. The novice tremblingly pushed open the secret door and climbed up. Xu Xuan and Bai Suzhen jumped out.

The candlelight was like beans, the curtain hung low, and the room was empty, only a wooden couch and a thin quilt. The exit of the secret passage is set under the futon in front of the Buddha shrine, if you have not experienced it yourself, how could you have thought that under this simple and cold guest room, there is such a lewd and ugly world?

The three of them jumped out, and then they heard someone knock on the door and whispered, "Jueming, Jueming, okay?" ”

Xu Xuan put the dragon's tooth knife on the waist of the novice, and the novice hurriedly replied: "It's here, it's here." Under the nervousness, his voice couldn't help but tremble slightly.

Fortunately, the man didn't pay attention, and continued: "The carriage is waiting in the backyard, and the senior brother will soon accompany Liu Yuan to come out, you guys pack up, don't show your feet." With that, he hurried away.

Shami pushed open the door and led the two of them through the east corridor towards the backyard.

Xu Xuan and the others took the antidote of "Joy Ecstasy Incense" given by the novice, and were blown by the cool breeze, and the heat in the body disappeared.

The dark clouds in the sky are beginning to open, and the moonlight is like water, and the surrounding eaves tiles are as white as snow. Outside the temple wall, a gust of wind blew, clouds and mist flew, and there was a sound of shouting and killing, and I don't know if the various sects of the Taoist sect were searching for their whereabouts on the other side of the mountain.

Na Shami was terrified, sweating profusely, and his legs were constantly weakened along the way, and he almost tripped several times.

Xu Xuan thought secretly: "Since the abbot of the White Lotus Temple asked him to escort Liu Yuanwai, then what 'Mao Ziyuan' must not be a simple character, seeing him like this, how can he not be suspicious?" You need to think of a way to hit the east and west and fish in troubled waters. ”

Glancing at the kitchen in the corner of the courtyard, his heart moved, and he said, "Sister Bai, you and him are waiting here, and I will come when I go." "Climbing over the railing, the cat's waist swept into the kitchen.

The kitchen was dark, so he took out the rope loop in the corner of the wall, soaked it in a wine urn, and stretched it out more than twenty zhang away, until it reached the haystack in the firewood room at the back.

Then, with a fire, he lit the end of the rope in the kitchen, and swept back to the corridor as if nothing had happened, patted the novice on the back with his palm stained with rice wine, and said with a smile: "You are all wine-colored and wealthy, very good, very good." Let's go. ”

Shami glanced at the faint red light in the kitchen, full of suspicion, but did not dare to say more, and led them into the backyard garden in a trembling manner.

The giant pine in the courtyard is towering, there is a black lacquered carriage parked under the tree, and several monks lead the horses to guard the side, and when they see them coming, they bow their heads one after another.

As soon as they lowered their heads, Xu Xuan immediately turned on the fire fold, lit the monk's robe on the back of the novice, and gave him a knife in the back of the heart, and at the same time grabbed Bai Suzhen's wrist, staggered and ran, and shouted: "Leave the fire ancestor!" The Fire Ancestor is here! ”

The novice was on fire, rolling and slapping, screaming in terror.

The faces of the monks changed greatly, and they were about to come forward to save each other, when they "whew", and the firewood room in the next courtyard burst into flames again, and someone shouted: "Go to the water!" Let's go to the water! ”

The horses neighed and kicked their hooves, and there was chaos around them. The monks grabbed the reins of their horses, drew their swords and held their sticks, and shouted, "Be aware, quickly escort Mrs. Liu to the car!" ”

Bai Suzhen was veiled, bowed her head and galloped under the support of Xu Xuan, just got into the carriage, and with a "bang" behind her, the wine urn in the kitchen exploded, and the blue and purple flames rushed straight up three or four feet high, illuminating the courtyard red.

Xu Xuan slapped the horse's buttocks fiercely and shouted, "Hurry up!" Come on! "Take advantage of the chaos to get into the car, roll over and roll under the seat.

The black horse neighed in pain, ignored the groom's drinking, pulled the cart and rushed out of the courtyard. The monks hurriedly turned over and followed closely behind.

The carriage was extremely spacious, and although Xu Xuan was curled up under the chair, he did not feel cramped.

He held his breath and concentrated, as the car body bumped and undulated, through the corners of Bai Suzhen's fluttering skirt, he looked out of the car door, only to see the lights flickering, the wall swept upside down, and the carriage had rushed out of the back door of the temple in an instant, "rumbling" down the mountain.

Lin Lingsu laughed in his belly: "I don't know the true face of Lushan, only because I am in this mountain." Boy, I can't imagine that your milk stinks and doesn't dry, but your stomach is bad, and the widow looks down on you. ”

The carriage turned left and galloped, and saw the fire of the White Lotus Temple in the distance, the less and more fierce, reflecting half of the mountain wall.

Xu Xuan thought of the women trapped underground, and his heart sank, hoping that they could escape this catastrophe until he reported the case to the Chengdu government.

The monks galloped on their horses, guarding both sides, and kept shouting, "Slow down! Slow down! Wait for Senior Brother and Liu Yuanwai to catch up. ”

Mavle snorted and galloped down for more than ten miles, before the two frightened black horses gradually slowed down.

Not long after, the horses' hooves in the rear were gained, and several people rushed after them.

Lin Lingsu let out a "huh" and said, "Boy, the difficult character is here." The other three are okay, the first person is really strong, not under the bald thief of Mingxin. With your cultivation, if you want to hide under your skirt and hide from his ears and eyes...... Hey. ”

The two of them were shocked in their hearts, Mingxin was known as the "True Master of the Protector" of the Seventy-two Temples of Emei Mountain, and his cultivation was second only to Mingkong. Who is it that can be so recommended by this wicked? Before he could think of it, he only heard the monks on both sides cheering in unison and shouting, "Senior brother is here!" ”

Xu Xuan is a rin again, and the person who came must be that "Mao Ziyuan".

The horses neighed, the wheels rolled, and the carriage turned sharply to the left, keeping the view of the people diagonally behind the cliff.

He gritted his teeth, took Bai Suzhen's hand, jumped out together, and rolled down the grass slope rapidly. This time the speed was extremely fast, and the monks were busy turning back and shouting, but no one noticed.

The wind was howling, the hunting was blowing, the two of them turned over and jumped up, and rushed down for eight or nine miles before stabilizing their figures.

The sky is full of dark clouds, the moon is dusk, the mountains are continuous, the grass waves are undulating, and a mountain stream flows eastward, and I don't know where I am. However, judging from the mountain terrain, it should have approached the foot of Emei Mountain.

Xu Xuan looked back and saw that no one was chasing him, so he let out a long breath and said with a smile: "The female donor will go out of the mountain gate, but unfortunately there is no carriage to replace us, so we have to walk to Chengdu." ”

Bai Suzhen was also relieved, smiled slightly, and wanted to speak, but felt lightheaded, and sat down in the grass. She was seriously injured, she hadn't eaten for another day, and she had forced her strength to run so far that she could no longer support it.

The cool breeze is indescribable. The two were tired and hungry, so they simply washed their faces and drank water by the stream to rest for a while.

The valley is rich in vegetation and wild fruits, which are constantly swaying in the wind. Xu Xuancai picked a few big handfuls and devoured them to his heart's content, Bai Suzhen ate for a while, and then sat down to adjust his luck.

The sky was full of dark clouds, and gradually blocked the moon again.

A gust of wind blew, the pine waves were like waves, and dozens of green light clusters suddenly floated in the dark valley, and then more and more, thousands, deep blue and shallow green floated around, as if thousands of fireflies danced with the wind, and as if the stars were shining, and the Milky Way was winding.

Bai Suzhen opened her eyes, with a hint of trance and intoxication, and said in a low voice: "This is Emei's 'Buddha lamp'." It is said that Emei Mountain is the dojo of Fuxian Bodhisattva. On a dark and windy night, there is often a scene of 'ten thousand holy lamps piling towards Fuxian' in the valley. ”

Xu Xuan had never seen such a magnificent spectacle, but he felt that his chest was blocked, and his joy and sorrow were inexplicable. Thinking of the experience of the past few days, thinking of the seventy-two temples of Emei and the various sects of Taoism, thinking of the women trapped in the White Lotus Temple, and thinking of Lin Lingsu's angry words...... I feel that the five flavors are mixed, and I can't say the desolation and melancholy.

Dao Ye Moye, is it evil, why are there thousands of Buddha lamps, but they still can't illuminate the dullness and darkness of this world?
