Chapter 131: Shantan Temple

Feng Yunshang and Concubine Zhen obviously had excited expressions on their faces, but they also took into account that they came to investigate the case, so they didn't dare to make any big moves.

After watching for a long time, Tang Ningnan didn't see where the Shantan Temple Chu Han said, Chu Han pointed to the bottom of the cliff, Tang Ningnan leaned out half of his body, and saw a temple built of red wood in the middle of the cliff.

was stopped by Feng Feihan and hugged back, and put it on the ground safely.

"It's so high, it's dangerous, and I'm not afraid of falling."

The carriage traveled from the county government in the city to this place for half an hour, and now the wheels of the carriage were stuck in the rocks, and it was getting late, and there were raindrops falling at this time, so it was impossible to go back, so they could only go to the temple to spend the night, and see if the monks inside could let them stay here for a night.

In Feng Yunsheng's impression, the monks are the most kind, so she thinks that the monks in the temple will definitely be happy for them to stay in the temple, which is also a good deed.

For Feng Feihan, they can also inquire about the situation related to the case.

Under the leadership of Chu Han, the group zigzagged along a road on the cliff, this road was not like a road at all, and Tang Ningnan was frightened, I don't know what those monks thought, to build the temple in the middle of this bare cliff.

Chu Han walked in the front, after Li Lanshi was broken, in the middle was Tang Ningnan and the three women and Fengfei Han Ke, looking back and seeing the concubine walking tremblingly on the cliff wall, Tang Ningnan felt a little guilty in his heart, he originally took the two of them out to play, but he was involved in this matter, and he didn't know if there would be any danger in the future.

Now she thinks it's no wonder that Song Jieyu and the others said that they were unlucky, and sure enough, every time they follow her out, there will be no good thing, but this is not something she can decide, at this time, she wants to raise her head and let out a long roar at the sky.

At this time, his arm was held by a strong hand, and Feng Feihan's deep voice sounded: "Look at the road." ”

A warmth rose in Tang Ningnan's heart.

Feng Yunshang was not so scared, and looked interested, Tang Ningnan shook his head, in the end, he was raised outside the palace, he had a wild temperament, and he was very interested in these things, but this is good, not only is his body good, but his personality is also cheerful.

From above, you can only see the vermilion roof of the temple, the road is unfamiliar, and it is very steep, and it takes a tea time to reach a platform.

Only then did Tang Ningnan and his entourage see clearly how the temple took root on this cliff, half of the temple house leaned on this small platform that was not wide, and the other half hung in the air, and the lower part was supported by very high wood from the beach, supporting the entire temple.

The main entrance of the temple opens from the side, and the three characters of Sandan Temple are written on it.

This made the concubine a little worried, feeling that the temple was not safe, and she didn't even dare to enter the temple door.

Chu Han said that this temple has been around for some years, and there has never been any accident, so the concubine hesitated to step into the house.

"Anyone? Is anyone there, please? The group walked into the temple, first stepping a few steps, and then entering the temple. There was no light in the temple, the light was very dim, Feng Yunshang raised her voice and asked loudly, but no one responded.

The concubine looked around the room, looking a little gloomy because of the lack of light, and pulled the corner of Feng Yunsheng's clothes in fear.

"What's the matter with you?" A gloomy and hoarse old man's voice sounded behind everyone, startling the concubines and several women, and even Li Lanshi trembled.

Turning around, he saw an old monk with pale eyebrows and beard, his eyebrows were very thick, and they grew from the tips of his eyebrows and dragged them down the corners of his eyes, and his beard grew from under his nose, always half a foot long, and he was dressed in a tan robe.

The monk walked towards them, and the concubine was a little afraid of him, because this monk's face was full of ravines, against the light of the door, his face looked very hideous, his pupils were very small, and the whites of his eyes were very large, and the whole person gave people an eerie and terrifying feeling, Feng Yunshang took her hand and protected her behind him.

"I ask you guys what you're doing here?" Seeing that everyone did not react, the monk asked again, his tone was not kind at all, and even full of hostility, which was far from the image of the monk in Feng Yunsheng's memory.

"In my opinion, a few of you were sent by the government to interrogate our temple!" The monk walked up the steps and approached the crowd step by step.

"Ah......" Chu Han was about to answer, when the monk's voice suddenly raised his voice. He almost yelled at them: "I advise you to go back quickly, this is a temple, and the place where you secular people come has nothing to do with any disappearance." ”

Li Lanshi pulled Chu Han away, walked up to the monk, waved her hands, narrowed her eyes, and said with a smile: "No, no, we are foreigners who came here to play, and the wheels of the carriage are stuck in the stone crevices of the cliff, I want to ask, can we stay here?" ”

Good guy, Li Lanshi is so adaptable to the scene, I didn't know that he still had this face before, is it like this for everyone who has been in the palace for a long time? Tang Ningnan sighed in her heart, in her opinion, the raw white Li Lanshi, squinting and smiling, was completely harmless to humans and animals.

The old monk seemed to have bad eyes, and he was close to it, and he was about to stick it to Li Lanshi's face.

"What? How many of you would like to stay here? ”

Listening to the tone, it seems that it will not work, Li Lanshi changed her words: "If it is inconvenient...... We'll leave right now. ”

The old monk suddenly turned into a smiling face and grabbed Li Lanshi's hand, "If you want to stay, just say it early!" I thought you were here to interrogate that. ”

"What's that, what's that?" Tang Ningnan asked.

The old monk rubbed his hands, his eyes wandering, "It's nothing, it's nothing, it's just some private matter." ”

This look is obviously boring, Tang Ningnan's eyes became sharp when he looked at him, and Feng Feihan also noticed it and stared at him tightly.

The old monk rubbed his hands together and continued: "Including a meal of vegetarian food and silver taels for the visit, as for men, ten taels per person, and twenty taels per woman each, we also run a lodging business. ”

What, she looks like a monk, but she always wants to make money, Tang Ningnan now looks at her rubbing her hands, as if she has fallen into the eyes of money, the monk is compassionate, why did he still take advantage of the fire to rob it?

Besides, are monks also sexist? Why is a woman twice as expensive as a man Tang Ningnan glanced at the monk and looked to the side.

"Two, twenty?" Chu Han's eyes widened, and he looked at the old monk incredulously.

The old monk turned his head to the side, squinted his eyes, and said, "You can't stay in it, so let's walk four hours into the city, right?" ”

Li Lanshi immediately waved her hand again, and said with a smile: "No, no, no, we will stay here." ”

The old monk turned back into a smile, this smile, it's better not to laugh, it's even more ugly than crying, Tang Ningnan thought to himself.

"Then come in, it's rare to have such a big customer come to the door." As he spoke, his eyebrows and mustache trembled with the smile on his face.

It is indeed a big customer, a group of six people, three men and three women, a total of ninety taels of silver, which is almost worth a piece of gold, what is this not a big customer?

With that, the monk passed through the few of them and led them inside.

"But, ninety taels of silver ......," Chu Han stammered.

Just when the old monk spoke, he had calculated in his heart that the six people would spend a total of ninety taels of silver. Master Thorn Shi brought his wife to his realm to be a guest, and he couldn't let the guests pay, but his monthly salary was only thirty taels.

The accommodation fee of 90 taels, he has to save it for three months without eating or drinking! Even if you go back for reimbursement, you can't say such a large amount!

I knew that the temple would charge money for lodging, and it was so expensive, so I didn't bring them here, Chu Han secretly complained in his heart, and now let him go to the cliff, and the carriage that couldn't be pulled out of the crack in the stone could be pulled away.

"I'm not trying to scare you, I advise you to stay! On a rainy night like this, there might be a monster staring at you somewhere! ”

When the old monk heard Chu Han's words, he turned around again and said to everyone with a serious face.

"What?" Feng Yunshang asked with great interest, "Is it a bear, a wolf or something?" ”

"Bear?" The old monk's tone was full of disdain, "Aren't they the kind of furry animals, besides, there are no bears and wolves in this area of Pingliang." ”

What would that be? Feng Yunshang looked puzzled.

"I like rainy and humid nights, and I specialize in devouring women's hearts and lungs, and it's the monster nine-headed eagle on the sea!"

"Nine-headed eagle?" Tang Ningnan and the others asked.

The old monk covered his mouth, "No, no, I shouldn't have told you this, you just didn't say it." ”

Such a performance made Feng Feihan and Tang Ningnan's suspicions even heavier.

As soon as the old monk's words fell, a lightning bolt struck, illuminating the temple, and the old monk's face full of ravines looked even more terrifying, and the concubine clenched Feng Yunsheng's hand, sweat beads, and trembling all over.

Seeing her like this, Tang Ningnan stepped forward to hold her shoulders and said to the old monk: "Master, don't scare us, our daughter's family is timid, and she will stay in your temple tonight, and the accommodation fee is easy to say, Lan Shi." ”

When Li Lanshi heard this, she took out a gold ingot from her cuff and put it in the monk's hand, Chu Han was dumbfounded, how long should he keep this ingot of gold? The big officials from the capital are different, they are so generous as soon as they make a move, unlike him, who is a little childish.

The old monk couldn't take his eyes off the ingot of gold when he saw it, so he accepted it happily.

"See the money." Tang Ningnan muttered in his mouth, Feng Feihan also glanced at her, it's not that they can't afford to pay this money, it's just that it costs ninety taels, which is really expensive, many poor families don't have an income of fifty taels of silver a year.

What makes it even more dissatisfied is that this temple is still sexist! I can't bear it, I really can't bear it!
