The treasures of the town temple in the dungeon have disappeared, and Zhao Zimeng doesn't want to provoke those snakes, and there is no need to provoke them.

For the sake of prudence, Zhao Zimeng and Xiang Daimo walked to the front right and left front of the lotus seat, and illuminated the stone carved platform and the back of the lotus seat with a lamp.

In addition to a few snakes coiled on the ground, constantly swimming and entangled, Zhao Zimeng found a fist-sized rat hole in the corner behind the lotus seat.

There was a faint sound of rats inside.

No wonder there are snakes in this underground palace, it is dark, dark and damp, and there is enough food, it can really be described as the extreme *** of snakes.

Zhao Zimeng was unwilling: "Dai Mo, let's see if there is anything on the lotus seat." ”

Xiang Daimo took a step forward and aimed the pillar of light at the python that was sitting on the lotus flower.

The python raised its triangular head and gathered its body while swimming rapidly.

After a while, he spit out a long letter again, making a "silk" and "squeaking" sound of vigilance.

The snake seems to be disturbed by the bright light, and becomes angry, making a posture of attacking at any moment.

"Dai Mo, don't move, be careful of being bitten." Zhao Zimeng on the side reminded.

Xiang Daimo didn't dare to act rashly again.

The human snake was frozen for about a minute, and the two snakes, one thick and one thin, suddenly turned their heads and swam down the lotus seat.

In the blink of an eye, the snakes disappeared into the shadows behind the stone platform and the lotus seat.

Zhao Zimeng hurriedly took two steps forward and walked to the lotus seat.

Inside the lotus seat, there was nothing but a circular depression and a white snake moult wrapped around the edge of the lotus seat.

Obviously, this circular depression in the middle of the lotus seat is used to place the golden Buddha.

The diameter of the crater is about 40 centimeters and the depth is about 5 centimeters.

Then the size of the base of the Golden Buddha should also be about forty centimeters.

Based on his limited knowledge of Buddhism, Zhao Zimeng judged that most of the people standing on or sitting on the lotus pedestal were a statue of Guanyin Buddha.

This Guanyin Buddha must be the Golden Buddha mentioned in the legendary untitled poem.

Based on the size and height of the high platform and lotus seat, the rumor of the half-human-tall Golden Buddha is credible.

Except for a few large holes at the top, this chamber is completely enclosed.

It seems that this secret door on the wall of the well is the only entrance and exit of the underground palace, and this secret passage is the only way to enter and exit the secret room!

The design of this entrance is ingenious, very secretive, very ingenious!

There are three stone gates in the dark passage, and there are so many pythons in the underground palace, which can be said to be foolproof.

It can be seen that "the light of the Buddha is here" is not an empty word.

There are certainly no thousand-year-old snakes, but snakes will reproduce – and will only multiply more and more.

Moreover, there are endless offerings to the Bodhisattva on the incense table in the main hall, the rats steal the tribute fruit, and the snake has fat rat meat to enjoy, the person who designed the underground palace is really smart!

It is not difficult to imagine that the holes at the top of the underground palace should lead to the high platform under the body of Shakyamuni Buddha.

When the builders were building the underground palace, they thought about sealing the golden Buddha forever in a place that no one knew.

As for why such a secret door was built on the wall of the well and an untitled poem was carved on the Linggu Tower, all three of them were thinking about this question.

"Team Zhao, the height and width of the cave entrance may be determined by the height and width of the Golden Buddha. If the entrance is too small and the Golden Buddha is relatively large, the Golden Buddha can only stay in the underground palace forever. Linghu Yunfei said.

"Deputy team, you mean that the people who built the dungeon not only want the dungeon and the golden Buddha to become a permanent secret, but also want to take away the golden Buddha in the dungeon in case of an accident." Xiang Daimo said.

"What Yun Fei said is very reasonable, hiding the entrance on the wall of the well, just don't want anyone to know, Ge Zhenggen and Liu Abao found that the hole in the wall of the well is probably a coincidence. If we can see the Golden Buddha, we will definitely be able to guess the real purpose of the designer in designing the secret passages and entrances. Zhao Zimeng said.

"It seems that the rumors about the Cold Moon Temple are true." Linghu Yunfei said.

"There is indeed a dungeon, and there is a lotus seat, and the only one who has lost the golden Buddha on the lotus seat." Xiang Daimo said.

The general process of the three people's analysis of the theft of the Golden Buddha should be as follows:

When Ge Zhenggen and Liu Abao were digging a well, they accidentally discovered a secret door on the wall of the well.

They entered the secret passage, opened the three stone gates, entered the underground palace, and saw the golden Buddha on the lotus seat.

The two of them were greedy and took the Golden Buddha out of the underground palace and hid it in a secret place.

Then he concocted a letter home, tried to smear oil on the soles of his feet, and walked away.

But the praying mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch is behind.

The two of them never dreamed that in the monastery, someone had already set their eyes on them.

Just as they were about to leave the Cold Moon Temple with the Golden Buddha, they were killed.

After Ling Hu Yunfei took more than a dozen photos, the three of them returned to the dungeon and walked out of the dark passage. Out of the well.

When Zhou Jialiang saw the steel drill in Xiang Daimo's hand, he asked Wang Biao to go to the meditation room and bring an identical steel drill.

This steel drill is used to pry the stone (flat head part) and take the iron nail (tail - the tail hook part of the steel drill has a fork, and this forked part is used to take the iron nail. ）

Ge Zhenggen and Liu Abao once resurfaced the floor tiles around the edge of the well.

Pry floor tiles need steel drills, in addition, it seems that steel drills are not needed when digging wells.

At this time, the autopsies of Xiao Changsong, Feng Yiming and Cheng Qiushui had ended.

The autopsy report is as follows:

Height, 174 cm;

Age, 24-26 years;

Time of death, about 15 years.

The source of the fatality was a hole in the occipital bone of the deceased, and the diameter of the hole was about 2.5 centimeters.

The hole was caused by the penetration of a sharp weapon, and it killed with one blow.

After seeing the steel drill in Xiang Daimo's hand, Cheng Qiushui added a sentence to the autopsy report: The sharp weapon is a steel drill with a diameter of 2.5 cm (a photo of the murder weapon is attached).

Note: The deceased was wearing a white shirt on the top, gray trousers underneath, gray stockings and liberation shoes on his feet (photo attached). ）

After the abbot of Xiuneng and the supervisor of Jueshui identified and recalled on the spot, the deceased was Liu Abao.

For the sake of prudence, Ma Jianping still has to draw a mock portrait.

This simulated portrait should be identified by Abbot Xiuneng and Supervisor Jueshui, as well as Teng's family.

After Lin Di finished taking pictures, Feng Yiming and Cheng Qiushui put the corpses into the body bag, and then went down the mountain.

At this time, the sun is about to set.

Before leaving the Lengyue Temple, Zhao Zimeng and his entourage went to the Daxiong Treasure Hall to see the lotus seat under the Guanyin Bodhisattva.

Lin Di also took a few photos from different angles.

The lotus seat in the Daxiong Treasure Hall is exactly the same as the lotus seat in the underground palace, and it is exactly the same.

Zhao Zimeng and his entourage went to Teng's house in Shizhai after bidding farewell to the abbot of Xiuneng, the supervisor of Jueshui and the Zen master of Puji.

When the comrades left the temple, the monks were entering the dormitories one after another—it was time for the evening fast.

According to Zhao Zimeng's instructions, Teng Laosan also invited Mr. Deng.

When Mr. Deng arrived at Teng's house, he brought two jars of wine that he had brewed himself.

Teng Laosan turned out to be a chef, and his skills were really good, he used the ingredients bought by his comrades to make a few dishes, and added a few other dishes to his own family.

Teng Ergui went in and out in a wheelchair, helping his mother serve food for a while, and helping his mother set up the dishes and chopsticks for a while, so he was not enthusiastic.

Since he got a wheelchair, his mental state has changed dramatically, and his whole body is sunny.

Aunt Teng said that Teng Ergui not only helped the couple do what they could.

Now he can still wash his own clothes, and he cleans his bed and room every day.

Because his son's spirit is better, the old couple also has some smiles on their faces.

At Teng's house, the comrades also met Teng Dagui.

Aunt Teng said that since Ergui had an accident in the quarry, the leaders of the quarry transferred Dagui to the logistics support group.

Today, Teng Dagui is the deputy director of the quarry.

He is now focusing on the issue of safe production, and the lesson of blood has made him realize the importance of safe production.

In the past, Dagui was always concerned about two things, taking care of the quarry and taking care of his family.

My parents are old, and I have a younger brother who is paralyzed in bed and can't take care of himself.

Now, since my brother can take care of himself, he can devote himself to his work.

Zhao Zimeng: They usually come into contact with cases.

This time, to have so much contact with the Teng family, everyone's feelings are very deep.

The comrades felt that the life of the Teng family was not easy.

Of course, the comrades saw some valuable qualities from ordinary people: no matter how difficult the days were, they must move forward step by step and in a down-to-earth manner.

Mr. Deng was very happy to hear Zhao Zimeng's experience in Xiutian Wanghe Temple, as well as the understanding of the untitled poem by the abbot of Wanghe Temple, because he finally understood the untitled poem on the Linggu Pagoda.

It turns out that the rumors about the Cold Moon Temple are true!

The only regret: the golden Buddha in the dungeon is gone.

Teng Laosan and Aunt Teng also confirmed that Ge Zhenggen's cousin Liu Abao does like to wear a gray single hat.

They also recognized the white Truegood shirt, the yellow Truegood trousers, and the Liberation Shoes.

Teng Laosan also recognized the stainless steel lighter, he said: Among the dozen craftsmen, only Liu Abao has this kind of lighter.

Aunt Teng also said that Liu Abao and her son are as noble as they are.

Zhao Zimeng visually measured it, and Teng Dagui's height was about 174 cm.

Therefore, there is no doubt that the corpse in the secret passage is Liu Abao.

After dinner, Ma Jianping went down the mountain and returned to the criminal investigation team.

He wants to draw a simulated portrait of Liu Abao.

Zhao Zimeng and his entourage returned to the monastery, and tonight, Zhao Zimeng wanted to hold a case analysis meeting to decide the next course of action.

This legendary underground palace was found, and the remains of Ge Zhenggen's cousin Liu Abao were also found.

But where are the murderers of Ge Zhenggen and Liu Abao? Where is the Golden Buddha?

The case is still full of fog in front of us.

The group sent Ma Jianping out of the stone village and watched him go down the mountain before turning around and returning to Lengyue Temple.

Zhao Zimeng and his entourage walked directly into the East Zen Temple.

The case analysis meeting was held in the rooms of Zhao Zimeng, Ling Hu Yunfei and Xiang Daimo.
