Chapter 146: Searching for the Stolen Gold and Entering the Temple to Investigate
Walking into the private room, Hong Yu quickly ordered a meal, and then sent the shopkeeper and Sun Jiaji out. After about half an hour, Sun Jiaji walked in from outside, glanced at the dishes on the table, walked to Hong Yu's side and sat down, took out the return call he had just received from his pocket, and handed it to Hong Yu.
Hong Yu took the telegram and asked, "What do you say?!" ”
Sun Jiaji replied: "I already know what happened in Shanghai. He asked me to tell you, as long as you get the gold back, the rest is up to you! ”
Hong Yu quickly read the contents of the telegram, took out a lighter, and lit the telegram. After the newspaper turned to ashes, Hong Yu picked up the chopsticks and said, "Eat first!" Only when we have our stomachs full can we have the strength to work! With that, Hong Yu stretched out his chopsticks and took the lead in eating.
Tang Xingye and Tang Xingshang glanced at each other and ate along. Under the leadership of Hong Yu, the four of them devoured the food on the table quickly, and in just half an hour, all the dishes and steamed buns on the table disappeared.
After resting for a while, Hong Yu pulled the bell on the side. Hearing the bell, the shopkeeper ran in from outside and asked with a smile, "What do you have to say from the guest officer?!" ”
Hong Yu said: "Check out! ”
The shopkeeper replied: "Guest officer, a total of twenty-five yuan!" ”
Hong Yu took out his wallet, took out three ten-yuan fiat currency from it, handed them to the shopkeeper, and said, "No need to look for it!" ”
"Thank you! Thank you! The shopkeeper excitedly took the money from Hong Yu's hand, turned around and walked out.
"Wait!" The shopkeeper had just walked to the door, and when he heard Hong Yu's shout, he stopped, turned around and asked, "Guest officer, what else do you have to order?!" ”
Hong Yu asked, "Is there anything unusual near Yushan recently?!" Or is it something weird?! ”
Hearing Hong Yu's inquiry, the shopkeeper lowered his head and pondered for a while, and said, "Yushan Fushui Rock is on the Zanghai Temple, and in previous years, a Dharma ceremony would be held during this time. I don't know why, this year's festival didn't take place. Nothing else is out of the ordinary. Seeing that Hong Yu bowed his head and was silent, the shopkeeper then asked, "Do you have any other orders from the guest officer?!" ”
Hong Yu came back to his senses, shook his head with a smile and said, "No! Thank you! ”
Seeing the shopkeeper leave, Sun Jiaji asked, "Hong Yu, are we going to Zanghai Temple?!" ”
Hong Yu nodded and asked rhetorically, "Do you have a better goal?!" ”
Sun Jiaji smiled bitterly and said, "Being said by you, there is really no other better choice." ”
After eating and resting for a while, Hong Yu left the restaurant with Sun Jiaji and the Tang brothers, following the route given by the shopkeeper. Hong Yu and the four of them came to the outside of the Zanghai Temple. After looking at the mountain gate of Zanghai Temple, Hong Yu took Sun Jiaji and the Tang brothers and was just about to go to the temple, when the monk who was sweeping the floor outside blocked their way, and said with one hand: "Amitabha!" Donor, please stay! ”
Hong Yu asked, "Is there something wrong with the little master?!" ”
"Amitabha!" The monk shouted a Buddha name and said, "Donor, now our monastery is closed, and we will not accept outsiders." Donor, please come back! ”
Hong Yu said: "Little master, my mother promised Hongyuan here last year, and Hongyuan has reached it this year. ”
The monk said: "Donor, you are commendable for your filial piety on behalf of your mother." However, the closure of this temple is the will of the Buddha, and we and other Buddhist disciples cannot disobey it, and please forgive the donor! ”
Hong Yu's face pretended to show a pity expression, sighed and said, "Since that's the case, then let's take our leave first!" After saying that, when Hongyu turned around and was about to leave, he suddenly thought of something, turned around and stopped the monk, and said, "I'm sorry little master, I just forgot to ask, when will your temple be closed and open again?!" ”
"Amitabha!" The monk put his hands together and said pretending to be profound: "When it should be opened, it will naturally be opened!" Everything is predestined, and we can't do anything. ”
"Oh well! I took my leave under it! After that, Hong Yu left with Sun Jiaji and the Tang brothers. Halfway up the mountain, Sun Jiaji asked, "Hong Yu, let's just give up like this?!" ”
Hong Yu chuckled and said, "Didn't you notice that there was something wrong with that monk?!" ”
Sun Jiaji asked, "What's wrong?!" ”
Hong Yu said: "Didn't you notice that the ring scar on his head was new?!" In addition, the way he walks and the accent he speaks are incorrect. ”
Sun Jiaji lowered his head and thought about it, followed Hong Yu's footsteps, and asked, "Hong Yu, what should we do next?!" ”
Hong Yu said: "Let's get out of here!" ”
"Oh!" Sun Jiaji answered, and followed Hong Yu and the Tang family brothers to walk quickly down the mountain. After going down the mountain and walking for more than half an hour, Hong Yu and his party walked into a hotel.
The shopkeeper looked at Hong Yu with a smile and asked, "How many guest officers are there?!" ”
Hong Yu glanced at the price sign hanging on the wall, and said, "The four of us, you give me a small courtyard!" With that, Hong Yu took out five pieces of ocean and threw them on the counter.
The shopkeeper put away the ocean scattered on the counter and asked, "Guest officer, how many days will you stay?!" ”
Hong Yu replied, "Let's stay for three days now!" ”
"Good!" The shopkeeper nodded, and said to the guy on the side: "Take the four guest officers and go to the small courtyard in the back." ”
"Yes!" The man replied and said, "Four guest officers, please come with me!" ”
"Hmm!" Hong Yu answered, and took Sun Jiaji and the Tang family brothers to follow the guys to the back.
Walking into the small courtyard, the guy took out the key to open the door, beckoned Hong Yu and the others to enter, and said, "Guest officer, are you satisfied with this house?!" ”
Hong Yu looked at the environment in the house, took out a few dimes and stuffed it to the guy, and said, "Not bad! I am very satisfied with this house. Wait a minute, you can send us some water. The four of us wanted to take a shower. ”
The guy put away the money and said with a smile: "Guest officer, don't worry! I'll bring you the bath water later! If nothing else, I'll go first! ”
Hong Yu nodded, sent the man away, then closed the door, beckoned Sun Jiaji and the Tang family brothers to sit down, and said, "If my suspicions are not wrong, the gold should be in the Zanghai Temple." ”
Sun Jiaji said: "Hong Yu, just with a monk, you are so sure?!" ”
Hong Yu replied, "I'm not sure, so I'm going to go in and have a look." ”
Tang Xingshang scratched his head and asked, "Brother Yu, just the four of us?!" ”
Hong Yu glanced at Tang Xingshang with a smile and said, "To be exact, only me and your two brothers went in." Lao Sun has other things. ”
Sun Jiaji asked, "What else do I have?!" ”
Hong Yu said: "Wait a while, you will go and transfer some manpower." After dark, surround the Tibetan Sea Monastery. When you see me firing a red flare, you immediately lead people into the monastery. ”
"There's no problem with this!" Sun Jiaji then asked, "How many people do you want me to transfer?!" ”
Hong Yu said: "At least one battalion. ”
Sun Jiaji thought for a while and said, "One battalion, no problem. Wrap it up on me, and I promise I won't delay you. ”
After discussing, Sun Jiaji couldn't wait to leave. After Sun Jiaji left, Tang Xingye said: "Brother Yu, we have just been to Zanghai Temple, will we startle the snake?!" ”
Hong Yu shook his head and said, "Probably not." However, this possibility cannot be ruled out. That's why I chose to act after dark tonight. This saves a lot of trouble. ”
Tang Xingshang asked: "Brother Yu, if the gold is really in the Zanghai Temple, then those true monks in the temple will have already encountered an accident?!" ”
Hong Yu said: "I hope the Buddha can bless them with safety." ”……
Time passed little by little, and the afterglow of the setting sun lit up the whole sky red. After about half an hour, it was dark. After dinner, Hong Yu quietly left the hotel with the Tang brothers. Following the road they had walked during the day, the three of them quietly came to the vicinity of the Zanghai Temple.
Looking at the Zanghai Temple not far away, Hong Yu thought a little in his heart, and took the Tang brothers to the temple wall. After observing left and right, Hong Yu leaned his back against the wall, his feet were spread, his palms were folded upward, and he shouted softly: "Up!" ”
Hearing Hong Yu's shout, Tang Xingye ran two steps, stepped on Hong Yu's hand, Hong Yu took advantage of the situation, and Tang Xingye climbed the wall. Then Tang Xingshang also followed Tang Xingye's example and jumped on the wall. Then he covered Tang Xingye and pulled Hong Yu up.
The three of them entered the monastery, and before they had taken a few steps, a group of patrolling monks slowly walked towards them. Seeing this scene, Hong Yu and the Tang brothers immediately ran to the tree, and while the patrolling monks were not paying attention, the three of them climbed the tree. After seven or eight minutes, Hong Yu watched the patrolling monk walk under the tree, couldn't help but reach out and wipe the sweat on his forehead, glanced at the Tang brothers, and the three of them climbed down the tree.
Tang Xingshang asked softly, "Brother Yu, where are we going next?!" ”
Hong Yu looked around at the layout of the temple and said softly, "Follow me!" After that, Hong Yu took the Tang family brothers all the way to sneak away, avoided the monks patrolling along the way, and came to the outside of the Daxiong Treasure Hall. Through the window, Hong Yu and the Tang brothers saw the boxes piled up in the Daxiong Treasure Hall, and the three of them couldn't help but glance at each other. Tang Xingshang just wanted to speak, Hong Yu heard the footsteps behind him, and immediately made a muted gesture to Tang Xingshang, and without saying a word, he hid with the Tang family brothers.
"Wisteria-kun, are you too worried?! The four people you met in the afternoon were just ordinary pilgrims! ”
"Takakura-kun, I don't think it's that simple. I suspect those four men are most likely agents of Koda. ”
"What's the big deal about that agent? Even if they wanted to, they wouldn't have thought that the gold was here. ”
"Takakura-kun, please be careful! If Mr. Yanagi hears it, you're in trouble! ”
"No wine and no women, how long are we going to live like this?!"
"Takakura-kun, be patient for a while, and when the wind passes, I think Miss Miyazaki will definitely find a way to transport the gold away! Then we will be liberated. ”
