Qianbei Prefecture is located in the north of Guizhou Province, at the junction of the Sichuan River and the mountain city, where there are many mountainous areas, mainly Danxia landform and Karst landform, known as the hometown of longevity, the hometown of magnolia, the hometown of honeysuckle, the hometown of famous tea, and also the production area of famous wine, the place to which the ancient Yelang country belongs, and the place where ethnic minorities live.

There are many kinds of religions in the people, and the three gates are an underground religion that has risen in many places in the southwest in recent years, they believe in the three gates of heaven, earth and man, and they have completed an evolution when they cross a gate.

Those who enter the religion must first cross the door of man, abandon the root nature of man, enter the real land of worry-free, and become enlightened.

From the worry-free land to cross the gate of the earth, he entered the Brahma pure heaven and became a celestial being, and the Brahma pure heaven was free from dust and was happy.

After the celestial man crosses the gate of heaven, he enters the infinite heaven, there is no time and space here, even if the universe destroys the infinite heaven, it will not be destroyed, and the person who enters it will have eternal life that is, he is the master, and the one in charge of the infinite heaven is the Taiyi True Monarch, he has twelve disciples, called the real person.

Now Senior Brother Taibai Zhenren has transformed sentient beings in the lower realm, and he is now the head of the Three Sects, and everyone calls him Senior Brother.

These are some of the things that Xin Yifan and others heard about after they arrived in Qianbei Prefecture.

Except for Ye Zilan, the rest of the people all know something about religion, among which Li Danqing and others are also Taoist priests. After hearing about the teachings and general patterns of the Three Gates, they all shook their heads, and their first impression was that these Three Gates were talking nonsense.

After arriving in the urban area of Qianbei Prefecture, Xin Yifan and others planned to act separately, Xin Yifan and Ye Zilan, Lu Xuran, Zhou Shuwan, Li Danqing, Xu Jiaojiao, Ge Dahai and Zhang Dingxin.

Xin Yifan and the others were ready to infiltrate the headquarters of the Three Gates, and the remaining four people were responsible for taking care of Bai Qiming.

After Bai Qiming's hands and feet were broken, he was pushed in a wheelchair to Qianbei Prefecture together.

After inquiry, I learned that the headquarters of Sandaomen was not in the urban area of Qianbei Prefecture, but in Fanshan Town, which was more than 100 kilometers away from the city.

Xin Yifan could only drive the three of them to Fanshan by himself, and after about an hour, he entered the area of Fanshan, which is a mountain range that has been connected to the territory of Shancheng.

The town of Fanshan is located in the plain area at the foot of the Fanshan mountain range, a large river called Qingyu flows here, which is rich in honeysuckle and tea, Xin Yifan is actually familiar with this place, which is only a few dozen kilometers away from his hometown.

I haven't been to Fanshan Town for many years, but I find that much has changed here, and the simple folk customs of the past have been taken advantage of by people with intentions, and a religious organization that has never been heard of has appeared in this land.

When you arrive in Fanshan Town, you still need to inquire about it, and the town is full of believers, who sit in groups in parks, squares, or in the leisure areas of the community, around a man dressed in a wide white Hanfu, listening to the scriptures and preaching.

These believers were unaware of the arrival of strangers, and they all listened attentively, but the speakers should be more vigilant, and they would glance at Xin Yifan and others from time to time.

However, Xin Yifan and the four of them also behaved very naturally, and went up to listen to what those people said.

What these people are talking about is probably the same as what they understood before, and more of them are talking about all kinds of miraculous things in the Infinite Heaven, and some are also talking about the worry-free earth, asking people to leave everything behind and start to become enlightened, and strive to become enlightened people as soon as possible, and under the leadership of the senior brother, they will first enter the Brahma Pure Heaven and get rid of the suffering of the world.

Then, these people all hyped up the magical abilities of various senior brothers, and Xin Yifan and the others looked at each other when they heard it.

After a long time, when the man in white had finished speaking, he saw someone pushing a tricycle full of rice, cooking oil, bacon and other food, and the crowd began to line up in an orderly manner to receive these foods.

"I'll go, this cult can still play like this now!" Lu Xuran muttered.

"I think it's a pyramid scheme. Zhou Shuwan also whispered.

"Let's go, let's follow these men in white. Xin Yifan said to everyone.

After the white-clothed people finished distributing the food, those who listened to their teachings dispersed, and they also sat on tricycles and went to a building in Fanshan Town, and Xin Yifan and others followed unhurriedly.

This is a seven-storey brick building, which belongs to a high-rise building in Fanshan Town, downstairs is a supermarket, and there is a laneway next to it leading to the back of the building.

Xin Yifan used his ability to scan the entire building with his spatial ability, and found that there was a large courtyard dam behind the building, which was full of tricycles, and there was an iron gate from the alleyway to the compound, and there were many people standing in the courtyard, most of whom were wearing white Hanfu, and one of them was wearing a gray and wide Hanfu man, who was talking to a group of people in white clothes.

"Today's public morality is over, everyone go back to the practice room to read the scriptures, and practice public morality tomorrow!" After speaking, the man in the gray Hanfu took the lead in entering the building.

There is no elevator in the building, there is a staircase in the backyard that directly connects the second to seventh floors, the first floor is divided into two areas, the part facing the street in front is a supermarket, and the back is a warehouse full of those rice, cooking oil and all kinds of bacon, sausages, lunch heads and canned foods and so on that you see today.

The second floor to the seventh floor are divided into small rooms, one end is the kitchen, the other end is the toilet, both of which are shared on the first floor, which reminds Xin Yifan of the dormitory when he was in college.

Xin Yifan found that there were men and women, old and young, but most of them were in their thirties and forties, and there were many more men than women.

Xin Yifan scanned the entire building again, and found no secret rooms or basements or anything like that, and there was no sign hanging in the backyard of this building.

It seems that this is just a stronghold of Three Gates in the town.

After telling the rest of the people about this discovery, everyone felt that there should be other strongholds in Sandaomen, so Xin Yifan decided to find a place to live first, and then continue to monitor this place, and he could always find other strongholds from here.

Xin Yifan was worried that there would be three gates of eyeliner in the town, several people pretended to be tourists, and did not stay long near the building, looked at the sky, it was about to be noon, so Xin Yifan took the three of them to lunch, it happened that a few hundred meters away from the building across the street, there was a small restaurant, an old man who looked seventy or eighty years old was sitting outside basking in the sun, Xin Yifan saw the signboard written: mung bean flour, rice tofu, oil baba, flour, community rice and other local food, so he took the three of them in.

Entering the simple kitchen, a middle-aged woman in her forties and fifties is cutting rice tofu, it seems to be the proprietress of the proprietor, she arranges the cut rice tofu into a plate, and covers it with gauze after placing it so that flies do not fly on it.

The simple kitchen has two pots, one for the oil pot and the other for the cooking pot.

"Boss, four bowls of mung bean noodles, two plates of rice tofu, and four oily baba. Xin Yifan entered the house and reported some names to the proprietress in dialect, and the other three didn't know what it was, so they listened to Xin Yifan's arrangement.

"Yes, everyone will fight the sea pepper!" said the proprietress in dialect.

"You can all eat spicy food, right?" Xin Yifan asked everyone.

"Sir, I'm from Jingxiang, spicy is not a problem, Shuwan is a Hunan girl, and spicy is the next meal. Lu Xuran smiled slightly.

"Brother, I don't eat spicy food, you know, when my mother used to cook, I didn't put much chili peppers. Ye Zilan said a little timidly, as if she had thought of something after speaking, her eyes were moist.

Xin Yifan knew that she was thinking of her parents, and now the life and death of the two were still uncertain.

Lu Xuran put away his smiling face and went to serve rice and tofu with Zhou Shuwan, and put chili peppers on one plate, but none on the other.

"Mung bean noodles are coming!" The proprietress enthusiastically served the freshly cooked mung bean noodles, and saw that Ye Zilan's eyes were a little red, and asked, "Sister, why are you crying?"

"No, no, Auntie, your rice tofu is delicious, I miss my mother. Ye Zilan hurriedly said, wiped the tears that fell from the corners of her eyes after speaking, and did not forget to smile at the proprietress .

"Oh, the little sister is a foreigner, too, she came to our mountain from afar, homesickness is certain, don't cry, I'll send you two oil baba to eat." With that, the proprietress turned around and took two oily baba with chopsticks and put them on the plate in front of Ye Zilan.

Somehow, Ye Zilan cried out with a "wow" when she watched the boss's actions, which made the boss lady stunned on the spot.

"Dayingzi, what are you doing, making other people's little girls cry!" At this time, the old man sitting outside the door stood up from his chair, and his face collapsed.

"Dad, this baby misses her mother, it's none of my business. The proprietress hurriedly explained to the old man.

The old man seemed to be a warm-hearted person, so he walked to the table made by Xin Yifan and others with an embarrassed face and asked, "Young man, this little sister cub is so old, she still misses her mother when she goes out." ”

Xin Yifan hurriedly returned in dialect: "Old man, she hasn't seen my mother for a long time, you don't blame me." ”

"Oh, it's your sister, are you here to play?" asked the old man again.

"Anyway, come and play a little trick, and I'll be gone in two days. Xin Yifan replied politely.

"You guys are playing tricks, don't listen to the nonsense of those Erlang gods (referred to as gangsters in the local area)!" the old man said earnestly.

"Oh, old man, don't many of you believe it here?" Xin Yifan asked curiously.

"Believe me, you don't see that when they brag, most of them are dozing off!" said the old man with disgust.

"Then they..."Xin Yifan was about to ask clearly, but the old man frowned and said: "It's not that I'm greedy for a little cheap, and I guess I don't have to have a lot of people to listen to their nonsense." ”

"Yes, I think they want to be like a pyramid scheme. At this time, Lu Xuran also agreed.

"I don't think it's just a pyramid scheme, these people don't know what to do. The old man sighed.

"Isn't there anyone who cares?" Xin Yifan asked again.

"What's the matter? Now that even the mayor of the town believes in them, who will take care of it?" said Lao Tzu with some anger.
