Yang Chong took the time to go to Wuduan'er's hometown, Qianxigang in Xishan by Yishui in Longmen County, which was where Ji Buxu and Wuduaner once lived, Yang Chong wanted to remember the magical old man, and by the way to see if there were any clues. Along the way, the flags were unfurled, the armor of the three thousand cavalry was bright, Wu Duan'er, Kou Jiuhui, Zhang Guolao, Yuwen Chengdu, and Su Dingfang each rode horses, surrounded Yang Chong, and enjoyed the scenery on the roadside.

The golden wheat is almost ripe, and the leaves along the way have not yet turned yellow, which looks particularly pleasant in the early autumn sun; The cool breeze is breezy and cloudless, and the sky is like a piece of freshly washed blue jade, reflected in the water and mountains, with a clear luster. Yang Chong casually asked about the local customs, and spent time without a match, and when he came to Qianxigang, Yang Chong found that it was on the edge of the Longmen Grottoes.

As soon as he heard Yang Chong ask about the stone statue, he specially took Yang Chong to go around, only to see that there were two or three sculptures densely packed on the cliff, Yang Chong sighed, and it was also a kind of welfare to be able to see the complete sculpture so early. Kou Jiuheng accompanied Yang Chong to see the Dunhuang Grottoes many times, and knew that Yang Chong liked this magnificent style, but he just followed silently; On the contrary, it was Yuwen Chengdu, who had accompanied Yang Guang and Yuwen Shu many times, and led everyone to see two holes.

A hole is the Northern Wei Dynasty Xuanwu Emperor for his father Xiaowen Emperor to make merit and build, lasted 20 years, employed 800,000 people, under the dome top, the central carving of the lotus flower composed of the double petal lotus flower cover, around the lotus is eight tricks and two offering to the heavens, the characters are carved lifelike, the clothes and ribbons flutter, soaring in the wind, the posture is beautiful and moving. The main Buddha Shakyamuni has thin cheeks, slender body, wide robe and large sleeves, two disciples and two Bodhisattvas stand aside with a smile, and the two sides of the cave wall are exquisite reliefs of the story of Buddhism.

Another cave is more magnificent, magnificent, natural limestone karst cave excavated, the main image of Sakyamuni wearing a double-collared drooping robe, with a smile in his eyes, sitting peacefully on the square platform, on the left is the Guanyin Bodhisattva who holds the vase, on the right is the great trend of the Namani jewel to the Bodhisattva, behind him is more than 200 large and small Buddha shrines, gorgeous and changeable, the pointed arch like the lotus petal, the house-shaped building, the curtain and the tassel, the story of the Buddha and so on.

The difference with the construction of the royal family of Emperor Xuanwu is that the royal nobles of the Northern Wei Dynasty who spent a lot of money left a piece of statue inscriptions, recording the carving time, characters, and purpose of the Buddhist shrine, so that future generations can know the origin of the statue. Yang Chong remembered that there were 20 fine calligraphy works of the Northern Wei Dynasty in modern society, and he ordered: "Jiu Hui, after I go back, I will arrange for Wei descendants to come here, expand the calligraphy masterpieces here, and compile them into calligraphy." ”

Kou Jiuhui nodded with a smile, half of Yang Chong's calligraphy of various free schools was rubbed from the stone tablet cliff, saving a lot of money. I went to the grotto and delayed the time, and it was already time to cook at Qianxigang, and wisps of cooking smoke rose from the chimneys of every house and drifted to the sky; Yang Chong looked at it quietly for a while, then turned around and asked: "I remember you once said that when you raised the army, you had already moved some of the people away, and more than seventy percent of the people rebelled with you?" ”

Wu Duan'er's face suddenly became serious, what he said was the truth, but looking at the smoke, it seemed that all the villagers had returned, and Wu Duan'er immediately ordered his two hundred personal soldiers to find all the lieutenants and people in this area, and no one should be missing. Many of the two hundred cavalry were from Qianxigang, and when they heard this, they immediately divided into twenty squads and rushed towards the houses, and Yuwen Chengdu under Yang Chong's signal, divided five hundred cavalry to control the nearby roads in order to respond.

There was a fierce battle between the two houses, although the number of the other party was small, but it was definitely a master, and the ratio of the final battle death was one to five, and the soldiers of the hundred cavalry battalions of Yuwen Chengdu were all good at one in a hundred, five for one, and the other party was definitely not an ordinary person. Wu Duan'er and Yuwen Chengdu didn't dare to be careless, and personally led people to identify the people who searched and searched, and Wu Duan'er knew only nine acquaintances, and five good hands with hidden weapons such as crossbows and three people with kung fu were escorted aside.

The lieutenant chief was still the original resident, and when he heard that the former township was a thief and a county guard, he was so frightened that his upper and lower teeth chattered; It took a long time for Wu Du'er to find out that more than 60 families in the vicinity had moved in within a year, and immediately ordered a door-to-door search. There are a total of 22 households with suspicious points, some people found the secret room where the weapons were stored, some people found war horses, and some people found a lot of gold, silver and jewelry, Yang Chong handed it over to Yuwen Chengdu for trial, and his party came to the old residence of Wu Duan'er.

The area of the mansion is not small, but unfortunately it is all broken walls, and signs of fire and excavation can be seen everywhere, Kou Jiuheng laughed: "It seems that many people are interested in Wuwei'er, almost every house has been excavated underground, this is to check if there is a secret room." Needless to say, isn't it true that your master still has countless jewels hidden? ”

Wu Wei'er said with a gloomy face: "If my master leaves something, it will definitely be worth more than jewelry." ”

"Not necessarily." Yang Chong said unceremoniously: "It should be more terrible than money, and it can arouse people's greed more." Did you know? The attacker said that among the scores left by Ji Buxu, there was half of "Guangling San", and Yuwenwen and Pei Shenfu had been confirmed. ”

Kou Jiuhui, Su Dingfang and others are not good at silk and bamboo music, and they also know the value of "Guangling San", "Guangling San" is the ancient song "Nie Zheng Assassination Han Puppet Song", Wei Jin Ji Kang is good at playing this song, secret, and was framed by Sima Zhao and died. ”

Pei Shenfu is known as the first pipa master in Chang'an, familiar with the music of the Western Regions and the Central Plains, if Pei Shenfu is confirmed, it should be eight or nine without leaving ten.

Wu Wei'er didn't understand this, just stared at the ground and said, "Family master, my master's house is nothing special, you see that they have even dug up the roots, and there is no place to hide things." ”

Zhang Guolao suddenly walked into the courtyard, shuttling back and forth among the low wall stones, the highest half of the wall in the courtyard was less than one meter, and everyone could clearly see that Zhang Guolao was walking a footwork, or a formation. Zhang Guolao finally stepped out of the courtyard from a wall base on the east side, beckoned Wudu'er to go over and asked: "In this direction, can there be any private property of your master's family, such as cemeteries, fields, mountains and forests, and so on." ”

Wu Du'er thought for a long time and said, "There is a hunting house where you stay when you hunt, and it is a very hidden cave. ”
