221, the Tibetan scripture building

Regarding the richness of the book collection of Tianlong Temple, Tan Mo did not doubt it.

Because on the way to Tianlong Temple, Tan Mo saw with his own eyes that there were a large number of fields at the foot of Tianlong Temple. And these fields, when Zhang Mang was looking for someone to ask for directions, Tan Mo followed and learned that they were all from Tianlong Temple!

The people who cultivate the fields just rent the fields with the Tianlong Temple, and after a year of hard work, they sunburned their necks, froze their hands and feet, and finally eighty percent of the grain they obtained fell into the pockets of the monks of the Tianlong Temple, and the remaining two percent, one and a half percent still have to pay taxes, and only that little and a half percent are the farmers who work in the fields themselves.

That's it, of course, it can't support a family, so Tianlong Temple specially issued Yinzi money to these tenants, and they returned from nine out of thirteen.

In this kind of chaotic world, the people near Tianlong Temple, even if they are not tenants of Tianlong Temple, have borrowed money from Tianlong Temple.

Borrowing money from India to get by, this is almost drinking to quench your thirst.

This also makes it normal to sell children and daughters in the area near Tianlong Temple at the end of the year when the monks of Tianlong Temple come to ask for debts. Even because there are too many people who sell their children and daughters, this price has been pressed again and again, and many people have come from afar to get a cheap deed of sale in this place.

Therefore, in such a rich Tianlong Temple, how can the temple not be rich in books?

The scripture building of Tianlong Temple is undoubtedly heavily guarded, and many monks are patrolling. These are all warrior monks of Tenryu Temple, with a burly physique. Don't chant scriptures, only practice martial arts. Eating meat and drinking wine, killing people with knives, and cultivating a bad spirit.

There are means to ask for debts, and this group of warrior monks is the grasp of the success of Tianlong Temple in asking for debts every year.

These warrior monks are very skilled in martial arts, although they do not have the realm of grandmasters, but they are all good hands, but for Tan Mo, it is naturally a fictional description.

He walked in openly.

This scripture building has five floors, like a pagoda.

There was no one in the scripture building at this time, but Tan Mo found a strong smell of ink on the first floor, and walked over to see that it was some researched ink, and there was a book spread on the side, there were words on the left side of the book, but there were no words on the right side. And on one side, there is a scripture book. This is supposed to be someone copying a book here before.

Tan Mo went to the second floor, the second floor and the first floor were almost the same layout, with two rows of bookshelves and some scriptures.

There are people on this floor.

It's two old monks. Leaning against the window, drinking tea and laughing, I think it was the monk who was in charge of guarding the scripture building.

These scriptures are bigger than Tan Mo, Tan Mo wants to get the scriptures off the bookshelf from the bookshelf, and he has to make a lot of movement, for fear that it will alarm the two old monks, so Tan Mo walked along the stairs and walked to the third floor.

Pushing open the door and looking, Tan Mo was stunned.

The third floor was empty, not to mention the scriptures, there were not even bookshelves, nothing was placed. This made Tan Mo couldn't help but be surprised, could it be that Tianlong Temple, which occupies a lot of land, only has a two-story collection of books?

He climbed up the stairs to the fourth floor.

Before he reached the fourth floor, Tan Mo smelled a very strange smell.

It's not stinky.

It smelled very fishy, and it smelled quite strange as if it had been added some sand.

Reaching out to push the door, he found that the door to the fourth floor was locked.

However, this is difficult for Tan Mo, after sneaking in, Tan Mo found that although there were no books on the fourth floor of the scripture building, there were a lot of things.

Densely hung on four walls.

It was the carcass of frogs, snakes, finches, and lizards, which had been treated, dried, strung with rope, and hung on the walls.

The strange smell that Tan Mo smelled was a mixture of the smell of the corpses of these creatures.

"This Tianlong Temple's scripture building, how does it look a little wrong." Tan Mo frowned slightly, no matter how he looked at it at this time, he felt that the books on the first and second floors seemed to be hiding people's eyes.

Especially when no one puts anything on the third floor, it's like telling the people who enter that the third floor is empty, don't go up in vain.

Tan Mo looked at the corpses of these creatures, and his heart moved.

Common dried snake + a little wild ginseng, the success rate of nourishing the body after stewing is +100%.

"There's nothing wrong with these things...... Tan Mo was very surprised, he also treated these creatures as corpses, all of which were highly poisonous, dried and existed, so as to make some unique poisons or something, but with the success rate, he found that he was thinking too much.

Tan Mo looked at the stairs.

There is good lighting on the first and second floors of this scripture building, but from the third floor, the only source of light is the staircase that connects to the next floor.

The light on the second floor is no longer obvious on the fourth floor.

The staircase leading to the fifth floor, groggy and not too dark, is not at all clear until you look closer.

Tan Mo felt that this fifth floor might hide the secret of this Tianlong Temple.

And he likes to find out other people's little secrets the most.

So, Tan Mo walked up the stairs directly.

Anyway, he is wearing painted skin at this moment, and there is no one in the cultivation of Tianlong Temple, what is he afraid of?

The fifth floor was likewise locked.

Talking about Mo's old tricks again, he wanted to use the lock of the wine sword immortal ban to grind it off. However, as soon as he made his move, he saw a green-faced and fanged demon emerge from the crack in the door.

Holding a mace, the evil ghost scolded: "Where did the Taoist come from, I don't know what to do, I don't know that this is the spell of your grandfather?" ”

After the evil ghost finished scolding, he was stunned.

I stared wide, looked left and right, and saw nothing.

"It's weird!" The demon muttered, and turned his head, how did he come here, how did he go back, and the crack in the door went back again.

Tan Mo was still at the door at this time, and when the evil ghost appeared, he was startled, but then he realized that this evil ghost's Taoism was not deep, and he couldn't see through his painting skin and stealth.

So, Tan Mo continued to use the wine sword immortal forbidden to grind the door lock.

With evil ghosts guarding it, there must be some treasure on this fifth floor!

After a while, the evil ghost with the mace and the green fangs rushed out again, looked left and right, looked up and down, and stood in front of the door for a long time before going back.

Tan Mo saw that the evil ghost had gone back, so he stretched out his hand to pinch the trick and continued to grind the lock with the wine sword immortal ban.

"I'm so angry!" Cursing, the demon rushed out again, picked up the mace and waved it wildly.

Tan Mo hurriedly dodged away.

This evil ghost didn't do it before, Tan Mo still felt that this evil ghost was not powerful, but as soon as he made a move at this time, he found that this evil ghost's strength was not weak, and it was still above him.

This made Tan Mo retreat.

If this evil ghost is not as strong as him, then he can tease the other party with his painted skin. But if this demon is stronger than him, then there are two things to say......

Tan Mo wondered if he should slip away immediately, anyway, his original intention was just to borrow some books to read. But then, the lock clicked, shattered in half, and fell to the ground.

Then, the door opened.
