14. Purple gold lamp

Zhang Zhen took Zhang Lei and the others up the mountain and went straight to the Daxiong Treasure Palace.

Now this mountain temple is very familiar to Zhang Zhen and Zhang Lei, and they came three times in less than two days.

Zhang Zhen took the lead and walked through the door. The snow in the yard has been cleaned up by Blind Zhang and Deaf Li. The incense burner in the hall of the Mahabita is filled with three sticks of particularly thick sandalwood, and the green smoke rises repeatedly, ethereal on the top of the head of the great god. It makes this solemn atmosphere much stronger.

Entering the temple during the day, Zhang Blind and Li Deaf were no longer so sensitive. Zhang Blind sat on a chair next to the door of the Daxiong Treasure Hall, sorting out the sandalwood used by pilgrims for incense. Li Deaf stood at the door, as if waiting to receive the pilgrims who had come to offer incense and pay their vows.

The three of them didn't stop and walked directly into the main hall.

They looked up at the statue with a serious face, and there was a tension in their hearts. Zhang Zhen and Zhang Lei couldn't see the face of the statue clearly when they came at night, but when they saw it during the day, they couldn't help but feel incomparably in awe.

In order to show respect for the gods and Buddhas, all three people knelt down and kowtowed. Zhang Zhen didn't talk to Zhang Lei and Li Gen either, he had an unforgettable ability, plus he inadvertently added another ability to see through in the dark last night, and now for him, it was too easy to inspect the scene.

Zhang Zhen took advantage of the opportunity to kowtow, raised his head and glanced at the top of the hall, and lowered his head to look at the ground of the hall. As for seeing clearly and not seeing clearly, it doesn't matter, he has a special ability, and he will go out and take a good look later.

After each of them kowtowed their heads, Zhang Zhen didn't speak, raised his feet and walked out of the door. Zhang Lei naturally knew that Zhang Zhen had a special ability, and it was expected that he had already finished collecting the images of the scene. But how did Li Gen know that Zhang Zhen had this special function? He saw that Zhang Zhen and Zhang Lei only kowtowed three times, and went out directly without any other actions, and he was very puzzled. Didn't you say that you would come to inspect the site? Why do you have to leave as soon as you come in?

Looking at Zhang Zhen and the others who had already stepped out of the threshold of the main hall, Li Gen couldn't help but shout: "Hey, hey, what do you mean?" ”

Li Gen shouted loudly, and the bronze bell hanging at the door was buzzing. It also frightened the blind man Zhang, who was busy with his work.

The blind man put down the work in his hand and knocked on the magic weapon in his hand. He said very seriously: "In the main hall, it is forbidden to make loud noises!" ”

Zhang Zhen and Zhang Lei stood up when they heard the sound, looking at Li Gen's confused look, and then remembered that Li Gen didn't know Zhang Zhen's secret. So he hurriedly gave Li Gen a look and asked him to come out.

Fifteen years old is still just a child after all, Li Gen was said by Zhang Blind. was so frightened that he hurriedly shut up and jumped out of the hall in a stupid manner.

When he left the main hall, Li Gen asked with a resentful face: "Didn't you say before you came up that you wanted to investigate whether someone had touched the purple gold lamp?" Why did you two come out all of a sudden without saying a word? ”

As soon as Zhang Zhen stepped out of the hall, he remembered when he saw Li Gen's puzzled expression that Li Gen didn't know that he had special abilities. But the less people know about this kind of thing, the better. Zhang Zhen hurriedly recalled the situation in the hall, and tried to give Li Gen a strong explanation and cover up his abilities.

Zhang Zhen's head is like a computer, automatically comparing the differences in data. Within seconds, a message came through my brain. The big key hanging in the idol's hand is gone!

As soon as Zhang Zhen finished thinking about it, he heard Li Gen ask. He hurriedly pushed the boat down the river and said, "The reason why we came out is because I have finished the investigation, and someone must have touched the box of the purple gold lamp." ”

Zhang Lei thought that Zhang Zhen was going to tell Li Gen his secret, so he scratched his ears and cheeks anxiously. He knew that Li Gen looked like a big man, but in fact he was a "sparrow's mouth". Not only talkative, but also very gossipy. If there is any news that you want the whole school or the whole village to know, just tell Li Gen, it will definitely not take three hours, and everyone will know it. And the truth of the matter must be attached to 50% falsehood.

Zhang Lei was afraid that Li Gen would be unfavorable to Zhang Zhen after knowing the secret of Zhang Zhen's body. While he was in a hurry, he hurriedly grabbed Zhang Zhen's clothes and walked to the temple gate. He carried Li Gen behind his back and gave Zhang Zhen a color and said, "Go out and say, go out and say." ”

Zhang Zhen looked at Li Gen's anxious appearance and immediately understood. He winked at Zhang Lei. broke free from Zhang Lei's pull, and did not go out, so he said to Li Gen: "As soon as I entered the door, I saw that the key in the hand of the idol was gone." Doesn't that tell the story? ”

Li Gen also hurriedly looked back when he heard the sound, and sure enough, he saw the key that Zhang Zhen personally hung on the hand of the idol last night, but now it is suddenly gone.

Li Gen's mouth is the waist of cotton pants, and he can't keep any secrets. In Li Gen's consciousness, as long as the secret stays in his stomach for more than three minutes, the secret is not a secret. He was born obese, and everyone called him "Fat Root" since he was a child. Although he has a lot of strength, he is relatively slow to move, and many people are reluctant to play games with him. Therefore, Li Gen told what he knew as soon as possible, in order to attract more people's attention.

Li Gen saw that the key in the idol's hand was gone, and he forgot what he came up with Zhang Zhen for. Li Gen, who knew this, seemed to be a different person, ignored Zhang Zhen and Zhang Lei, and walked straight into the hall. said to the blind man, pointed to the statue of the god, and gestured to the deaf man.

Zhang and Li are the temple guards, just look at their appearance, they got up early in the morning and didn't find that the key in the hand of the idol was missing. When they saw Li Gen say this, they were very anxious. Quickly searched in the main hall. Li Genyi stood in the hall with command, like a hero who had made great contributions.

Zhang Zhen and Zhang Lei looked at this Li Gen angrily and funny.

Li Deaf searched up and down the confession, but did not find it. Then he walked out of the main hall towards the bronze bell, and saw that he was in a hurry and was about to ring the bell. Zhang Zhen saw that the situation was not right, and hurriedly grabbed Li Deaf. said to the blind man: "Ha Ye (the Northwest local government calls the blind man Hazi, read twice.) Now everyone is meeting in the village committee, and as soon as you ring the bell, people come again, which delays people talking about business. Now I lost my key, and I didn't lose anything important. If you want me to say, find someone to go and tell my boss, no need to ring the bell. When they're done, they'll come here. ”

After listening to what Zhang Zhen said, Zhang Blind also felt that it made sense, so he gestured to Li Deaf a few times. Li Deaf looked at the gesture of the blind man and stopped ringing the bell. But the question is, who will report to Zhang Datou?

The blind man can speak with his mouth, but his eyes are inconvenient. Li is deaf and can see it, but he is afraid that he can't speak clearly.

Before Zhang Zhen finished what Zhang Zhen said to Zhang Blind, Li Gen couldn't hold himself back. He thought to himself, such a good thing, I am the first to know, let me tell you, this is so face-saving.

As soon as Zhang Zhen's words fell, Li Gen completely forgot what he was doing. immediately said: "Haye, leave this matter to me, I will pass on the words as soon as possible, and I can't make a mistake." ”

After Li Gen finished speaking, he walked out of the door without waiting for Zhang Blind's permission.

Zhang Zhen and Zhang Lei looked at Li Gen's big mouth, and they were also happy. But that's fine. This big mouth followed, and I didn't know what to do for a while.

After Li Gen left, Zhang Zhen and his brothers also went down the mountain. They went down the mountain and didn't go home. Instead, he came to Li Skinny's house again. Zhang Zhen wanted to take a closer look at this purple gold lamp that was remembered by the man in black, what secrets were hidden here?

In Li Skinny Monkey's house, only Li Ke is at home. She saw Zhang Zhen and Zhang Lei, who had just gone out and came back not long ago. Immediately asked, "Did you catch the thief?" ”

Zhang Zhen didn't speak, only smiled and shook his head. Zhang Lei looked at Li Ke's excited appearance, and jokingly said: "Catch it, your brother is busy broadcasting to everyone." ”

Zhang Zhen mainly wanted to see the purple gold lantern, and he didn't talk nonsense, so he said to Li Ke: "Li Ke, do you know where you put the purple gold lantern that your brother brought home last night?" ”

Li Ke didn't know what Zhang Zhen was going to do, his relationship with Li Gen was not very good, and he didn't get along well since he was a child. Both of them have a clear separation of things. Naturally, she didn't want to touch Li Gen's things.

So, Li Ke asked: "What do you want Zijin Lantern for?" I'll get it for you when my brother comes. ”

Zhang Zhen didn't know what the relationship between Li Ke and Li Gen's siblings was. But when Li Ke said this, he didn't know what to say. This is close to other people's homes, and it is not easy to persecute her. So he smiled and said, "Don't listen to what Zhang Lei said, you caught a thief." It's just that I found that the key to lock the purple gold light box is missing, and your brother went to report to your grandfather, and you have to wait for a while. One thing came to mind, if you said that we were going to catch the thief tonight, we would definitely take out the purple gold lamp as bait. You really can't give it to him, and it's okay to fake it. I made a model of the purple gold lamp. Good thief tonight! ”

Li Ke is also a girl with a lot of curiosity, plus she was born in Gengzhuang, and the whole village has the tradition of practicing martial arts. Li Ke has also practiced with his master since he was a child, and his whole body has no kung fu. Naturally, she was more interested in catching thieves and things like that.

When he heard that he was going to catch the thief, he did not hesitate to do so. went directly to Li Gen's house and came out with the purple gold lamp.

Zhang Lei still had no interest in this lamp as always, he just glanced at it from afar and never looked back. Li Ke didn't know what to do, so he chatted with Zhang Lei.

Zhang Zhen looked at the purple gold lamp, took the lamp in his hand and looked at it repeatedly.

The purple gold lamp consists of a lamp base, a light pole, and a light bowl. It is about fifty centimeters high. The lampholder is the size of a plate for stir-frying at home, upside down; The pole is slender and long, connecting the lampholder and the lamp bowl; The lamp bowl is slightly smaller and shallower than the bowl for eating at home. There is a deep hole in the middle that is recessed. The purple gold lamp is covered with thick oil stains all over the body, and there are intermittent patterns under the oil stains, from the lamp holder along the lamp pole to the lamp bowl.

At the beginning of the day after the snow, it was past eleven o'clock, and the red sun hung in the sky. Because it was snowing, the sun was shining. The snow is reflective, and the sky and earth are much brighter.

Zhang Zhen walked to the window with the purple gold lamp, and looked at the purple gold lamp carefully with the sunlight shining in from the window. He wanted to see what kind of magic the purple gold lantern could attract the man in black to visit the mountain temple twice.

The sun shone on the purple gold lamp, and the body of the lamp, which was already stained with oil, sparkled in the sun. Zhang Zhen looked at it and saw the clues, and the more those inconspicuous patterns looked, the more they looked like characters.

Seeing Zhang Zhen, who was hopeful, he immediately became interested. He held his breath and focused. He activated his ability to see through the stains and see what was underneath them. Zhang Zhen stared at the patterns on the purple gold lamp for a while, and he suddenly felt that those patterns had changed. Those patterns are not simple straight lines, but are made up of many dense small characters. The patterns are not intermittent, but they circle and circle up along the lamp base very regularly, like a spring, each circle is higher than the other. The small characters on the pattern are also neatly arranged, and if you don't look carefully, you will feel that it is a striped pattern.

After watching it for more than ten minutes, Zhang Zhen watched it a wonderful one. Although he didn't know the small words, he rushed to make this discovery. It's enough to make people extremely excited, maybe it's really a treasure map.

Zhang Lei and Li Ke, who were on the side, also chatted for a long time, and he wondered why Zhang Zhen hadn't finished reading it yet. Then he glanced back. He saw Zhang Zhen holding the oil lamp, staring at the silly music there, and his expression was even happier than seeing Sun Jing.

Zhang Lei then shouted at Zhang Zhen: "Hey, young man, that's not your Sun Jing, I won't be able to pull it out later." ”

Zhang Zhen was awakened by Zhang Lei's ridicule. He looked at the time, and felt that he had been watching long enough. So he quickly put down the oil lamp. pretended to be calm and said: "This is better than Sun Jing." ”

Li Ke on the side is a tomboy, and he knows in his heart that he is not as beautiful as Sun Jing. But when she heard these two men talk about Sun Jing so unscrupulously in front of her, she was immediately jealous, and naturally she was very unhappy. picked up the purple gold lamp that Zhang Zhen put down, and walked away angrily.

Zhang Zhen didn't tell Zhang Lei what he saw just now, but smiled and said to Li Ke who walked into Li Gen's house: "Don't forget what I told you in the morning, remember to call your brother to come with me tonight." ”

After saying this, he pulled Zhang Lei and ran out of the door. Now he has more important things to do than catch thieves.
