Chapter 122: The Hidden Scripture Pavilion in Distress
The two of us observed for a while not far from the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, and found no movement, I gestured to Lao Liu, and then came to the Tibetan Scripture along the root of the wall, of course we didn't dare to enter from the main entrance, there were many guards in front, and we could only enter through the back window.
Let's hit under the window, this window is a bit high, we took out the rope and hook, Lao Liu's technique is higher than mine, I threw it twice and didn't hook it. Lao Liu hooked it all at once, climbed to the window along the rope, I gently pushed, the window opened, I jumped off the window sill, fell into the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, listened, it was also quiet, I let Lao Liu also come up, put away the hook and rope, and we walked to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion.
It was dark inside, with rows of bookshelves, although it was not clear to see, the two of us walked inside by feeling, to find a corner and wait for dawn, if it was on the side, I was afraid that it would be seen.
We found a corner. Grab a few books from the shelves, lay them on the ground, and lean against the shelves until dawn.
The long time is slowly passing away minute by minute, and we dare not sleep when we sit, and we can't speak, which is really boring hatred.
I don't know how long it took, I suddenly heard a soft sound, and then came the sound of a person's footsteps, in this quiet night, although it was very light but heard clearly, I gently patted Lao Liu's arm, Lao Liu had already heard it at this time, we waited quietly to see who came in in the middle of the night.
The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and it was not a person's voice that could be heard, and the footsteps stopped at a distance of more than a dozen steps from us, only to hear a person whispering: "Senior brother, you found it there last night." ”
"I found this place last night, let's look slowly from this row, this black light is not easy to find."
I heard the voice very familiar, I had heard it before, and after thinking about it, it turned out to be the two stupid people who were changed by me in the palace.
Neither of us moved, only heard the sound of flipping books, although I don't know what books they are looking for, but it is certainly not very easy to find, or they will not come in in the middle of the night, sneaking around, they rummaged for a while, only to hear the first one to speak and said: "Senior brother, we are looking like this, when are we going to find it, can we light the lamp to find it." ”
"No, you want everyone to know that we're looking for something inside, so we'll take our time."
"It's not good, senior brother, someone is coming." Then the two men stopped talking, and stopped turning the pages.
I also listened to it, sure enough, someone came, and with a lantern, the person who came directly opened the door and came in, it seems that it is not from outside, it is from the Taoist temple, now who will come to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion in the middle of the night, and heard a person's voice: "Master, what are you doing in the Hidden Scripture Pavilion in the middle of the night." ”
"I don't want to come either, yesterday during the day. The host came to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion to look for something, and found that the books inside were in a mess, suspecting that someone had come to find something, and it was definitely not in our view, and the host was afraid that someone from outside would come to find it at night, so let us come in at night to see. ”
"Then let's take a look, it's so big in here, when will we see it."
"The master is not good, how can there be books underground."
"It seems that someone has come in, let's go out and inform the abbot quickly." Then there was the sound of hurried footsteps, followed by the sound of the door closing.
"What should I do if my senior brother is discovered, let's go."
"Okay, let's go." The two of us left the hiding place and walked towards the window, and the two of us didn't move, still waiting to see what happened to them.
As soon as the two of them came to the window, a gong sounded outside, followed by a burst of shouts: "Catch the thief, there is a thief in the Scripture Pavilion." ”
I don't know what the two of them will do if they jump down, so I asked Lao Liu next to me: "What should I do with Brother Liu, can we go." ”
"Young master, don't worry, wait for them to chase them before we leave."
There was the sound of fighting and shouting outside, the two of us waited patiently, and after a stick of incense, we heard the sound of someone opening the door again, followed by chaotic footsteps, and stopped when we arrived at the place where the two people were looking for books just now, and said in a spoofed voice: "These two people are looking for books here, I don't know what books they are looking for, fortunately we came in time." ”
Another voice said, "Senior brother, let's go back and interrogate that guy and see what kind of people they are looking for." ”
"Okay, let's go back, you guys close the windows, and then see if there are any people nearby, I took Lao Liu's hand and stood up gently, Lao Liu saw me stand up, and followed suit, leaning on the bookshelf, not moving.
A couple of people came over to take a look, because we were in the innermost part. They didn't make lanterns either, so they didn't spot us. ”
After they left, everything was quiet, and I said to Lao Liu, "What should Brother Liu do next?" ”
"Young master, don't worry, they definitely didn't leave, I feel that there are still people outside, we are waiting."
After another half an hour, someone spoke at the door outside: "Senior brother, there is no one inside, let's go, you are just too careful, they all ran away just now, who would be stupid to wait for us to live with them inside." ”
"Senior brother, be careful, if you lose the master's most important thing, the two of us will definitely be sent to the kitchen to work as water and fire workers, it seems that it's okay, let's go back and interrogate that guy."
After they left, we waited for another half an hour, and there was still no movement outside, and the two of us came to the window, and I gently opened a window, and looked outside, and found no one, so I took out a rope and a hook, hung it on the window frame, and slid downstairs. It wasn't until Lao Liu also slipped down that we collected the rope and hook, and left him alone as for the window.
