Zhao Zimeng stubbornly greeted him: "Abbot Huijue, you haven't rested yet?" ”

"Oh, it's Captain Zhao! Poor nuns have the habit of patrolling the night every night, and when they see that everything is fine, they can sleep peacefully. Captain Zhao, you are—" Abbot Huijue stepped forward as he spoke to Zhao Zimeng.

Actually, Abbot Huijue should know what the comrades are doing, and the yard is piled up with miscellaneous items that have been moved out of the house.

Abbot Huijue walked to the meditation bed, looked at the fifty or sixty centimeter-deep pit under the meditation bed, and then bent down and bowed his head, and folded his hands: "Amitabha." ”

Abbot Huijue only said "Amitabha", and Zhao Zimeng's scalp was already numb - similar to Sun Wukong's feeling when he heard Tang Seng recite the mantra.

Let's not guess what Abbot Huijue means for the time being, the key is that Zhao Zimeng really didn't know how to deal with Abbot Huijue for a while.

Master Chen was even more embarrassed, and he and two other craftsmen climbed out of the pit. Pi smiled and looked at Abbot Huijue's serious and dignified face.

Master Chen and others came to the monastery to repair the Tibetan scripture hall, and the Buddhists were merciful and gave them work to do, so that they could have food, and they even wore a pair of pants with the police to calculate the monastery.

"Master Chen, can you tell the poor nun what you are doing?"

"This—" Master Chen knew that he was at a loss, and he was speechless for a while.

I still have to say that, at this time, Zhao Zimeng had no reason to retreat: "Abbot Huijue, as far as we know, in Mingchen Nunnery, in addition to Jingping's mysterious disappearance, there are also four nuns who have disappeared mysteriously. ”

"Captain Zhao, Poor Nun once said that not all people who want to become monks can take root in the monastery, and it is common to go in and out."

"You are here for the case of Jingping's disappearance, since Jingping has left Mingchen Nunnery, you should go outside the temple to find her!" Although Abbot Huijue didn't say anything unpleasant, her words were still able to scratch people's faces.

Now, there are some words that cannot be put on the table: "Abbot Huijue, there is a situation that we have not had time to communicate with you, and we were going to tell you tomorrow morning. ”

"Since you're here, I'll tell you about it by the way. Here's the situation: Zhishui's parents also went to the police to report the case. We heard that Shisui had lived in this meditation room before he disappeared. "It's time to reveal something to Abbot Huijue.

"Stop the water? Nian Ci, who is the water stop? ”

"Abbot, stopping the water is the stopping water that once served you in the quiet courtyard! She later left Mingchen Nunnery without saying goodbye. "Nian Ci Shi Taidao.

"Abbot Huijue, we heard that there is also a young nun named Xiuzhu who also left Mingchen Nunnery for some reason, and before this person disappeared, he also lived alone in this meditation room. So, we wanted to know what was going on in this meditation room. ”

"Poor nuns have been participating in Zen Buddhism in Mingchen Nunnery for some years, and they don't know what's 'strange', Buddhism is a quiet place, open and innocent, Captain Zhao is afraid that he is too worried. Amitabha. ”

"I'm so reckless, and I also ask Abbot Huijue to do a lot of Haihan."

"Captain Zhao, what do you think, you can inform the poor nuns, as long as the poor nuns can do it, they will definitely go all out. Here you are in the middle of the night...... I'm afraid it's not in line with the cleanup! ”

"Abbot Huijue is right in his criticism, we really don't think about this matter. The abbot of Huijue is a monk who participates in Buddhism and understands righteousness, and Zhao Zimeng has been taught. ”

"Okay, Captain Zhao, you guys are busy! We won't bother you. Abbot Huijue threw a word to Zhao Zimeng, and then walked out of the door of the meditation room with the support of Mrs. Nianci.

When he walked to the door, Abbot Huijue slowly turned his head and looked at Master Chen coldly and said, "Master Chen, this meditation room is the same as the Tibetan Scripture Hall, and it has been some years, so don't let anything happen; Master Chen, don't forget to restore the original state and put it outside - don't forget to put these things back, there are some things that you can still use in the future. ”

"Buddhism is a cold water gate, and nothing can be wasted casually."

"Abbot, please rest assured."

Abbot Huijue came calmly and walked very calmly, she seemed very calm, could it be that the comrades were too worried?

According to common sense, if there is a famous hall under the meditation bed, Abbot Huijue must be very nervous. From beginning to end, Zhao Zimeng didn't see any panic from Abbot Huijue. After all, people are high-ranking monks who have attained the Tao, and if they can let ordinary people see the details, then they can't be regarded as profound.

The comrades watched as the lantern and six black shadows disappeared around the corner.

Do you want to keep digging the pit? Zhao Zimeng was a little shaken.

Linghu Yunfei also hesitated a little: "Zimeng, what should I do?" Do you want to keep digging? ”

"Last night, the voice that Master Chen heard, if it wasn't a hallucination, there must be something wrong in this meditation room, and Abbot Huijue may be pretending to be calm." Xiao Luhan said.

Don't forget, don't hit the south wall and don't look back, this is one of Zhao Zimeng's characters: "Facts have proven that Abbot Huijue must have a problem, to deal with this old fox, we have to have an extra heart." ”

Zhao Zimeng's so-called fact is the diary that was imitated by Abbot Huijue-Jingping

Several craftsmen are packing up tools.

"Dig - keep digging - now that you have dug this part, you can't give up halfway and fall short. Master Chen, it's not too early, you still have to work tomorrow, so rest early! We come on our own. This matter has nothing to do with you, so don't get you involved in it - I'm sorry. ”

"Don't mind, we won't be able to sleep for a while, and since we're already in the mix, let's just do it to the end! Two pillars, continue digging. Master Chen looked at a young descendant.

Erzhu picked up a shovel and jumped into the pit.

The area of the pit is less than one square meter, and it can only accommodate one person, and several people take turns digging it. Linghu Yunfei also took off his uniform, rolled up the sleeves of his shirt, took the shovel from Erzhuzi's hand, and jumped into the pit.

For a pit of less than one square meter, the further down you dig, the smaller the space.

Half an hour later, the depth of the pit had reached two-thirds of the shovel handle, and Zhao Zimeng visually measured it, and the depth of the pit was at least seventy or eighty centimeters.

You can't dig any further.

Zhao Zimeng looked at his watch, and the time was a quarter past twelve.

Xiang Daimo stood at the mouth of the pit and dragged Ling Hu Yunfei out of the pit.

Ling Hu Yunfei's feet had just stood firm on the edge of the dirt pit, when he suddenly heard a low voice, and when he looked down, it turned out that the soil under Xiang Daimo's right foot had collapsed, and Ling Hu Yunfei and Master Chen grabbed Xiang Daimo's left hand.

Ma Jianping suddenly shouted: "Captain, look-"

At this time, the beam of Lin Di's flashlight pointed directly at the north of the pit, revealing a brick wall where the earth collapsed.

"How can there be a brick wall under the earth?" Zhao Zimeng muttered to himself.

"I'll take a look." Master Chen walked up to Xiang Daimo and Zhao Zimeng and looked towards the place where the flashlight beam was pointing.

"Master Chen, what do you think?"

Master Chen took the shovel from a craftsman's hand and dug up a part of the soil: "There should not be this wall under the foundation, there must be a famous hall underneath." Providence! This is probably the Buddha helping you in secret. ”

A few craftsmen are back in the works.

Master Chen dug up the soil on the south side of the pit, and when the shovel reached 20 centimeters, the same brick wall was revealed.

The width between the two brick walls is about 1.3 meters.

Under the command of Master Chen, several workers dug up all the soil between the two brick walls.

Twenty minutes later, a rectangular space about 1.3 meters wide and about 1.5 meters long appeared in front of everyone's eyes, which was obviously the entrance to a secret passage.

Two pillars jumped into the pit.

Five minutes later, the shovel tip of the shovel in Erzhuzi's hand touched something hard, and judging by the sound, it was either a brick or a stone.

The second pillar scraped a layer of soil three or four centimeters thick with a shovel, and the sound of the shovel head scraping against the hard object was very harsh.

The beam of the flashlight in Lin Di's hand followed, and a flat stone slab appeared in front of everyone's eyes, the position of the stone slab was on the east side of the rectangular space, the width of the stone slab was about twenty centimeters, and the two ends of the stone slab were still buried in the soil, so I didn't know its length.

Master Chen asked someone to bring a flashlight, the light is too dark, there are two flashlights, the light will be better.

There was still some soil on the west side of the slate, and the two pillars dug up the soil on the west side of the slate, and after a few minutes, another slate was exposed. The second slab is about twenty centimeters lower than the first, and it is exactly the same width as the first.

"Captain Zhao, this should be a stone step, there must be a secret room underneath. My ears heard it right, last night, someone was busy here all night, and there was so much earthwork that one person couldn't do. They wanted to seal the exit of the secret passage with earth. ”

"Master, fortunately, we continued to dig, but we didn't expect that there was a big secret hidden in this room."

"Yes! When we first entered the monastery, they deliberately piled up a lot of miscellaneous items in the meditation room and locked the door, fearing that we would discover the secrets under the meditation bed. ”

"At that time, I once told Abbot Huijue that so many of us craftsmen, as well as a few women, lived in a meditation room, which was crowded and inconvenient."

"But Abbot Huijue said that we can only vacate a meditation room for us to live in. She also said that there were some important ritual artifacts in this meditation room, and now, we have all seen it, and it is all some rags. ”

A few minutes later, several craftsmen cleared out a few more stone steps. The stone steps descended step by step, and the prototype of a dark passage appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

The secret passage is about 1.2 meters wide and about 1.5 meters high, and the upper edge of the secret passage is 40 centimeters below the base of the north wall, and the top of the secret passage is full of whole stones about 30 centimeters wide and about 10 centimeters thick. The two sides of the tunnel are made of stone. Judging from the design of the secret passage alone, we know that the secret room of the underground palace under the secret passage is extraordinary.

Undoubtedly, the chamber is also likely to be underneath the mountain.
