After a while, the cigarette was gone, and a circular hole appeared in the ground, which matched the base of the arhat.

"What kind of place is this? How did you get out of here? I asked Liu.

He had just stopped coughing and was leaning against the short wall to drink water, when he saw me ask him, he waved his hand and said, "I'll tell you later, don't go down yet." ”

I said yes and crouched down on the edge of the cave with a flashlight to look inside. There is not much space in this hole, it can be said that it is clear at a glance, and some broken Buddha statues are thrown horizontally and vertically, and it is not only that Liu Dongxi did it madly or it is like this.

Lu Yan looked at the cave, went to pick up the smashed Arhat again, and after a while came over with a rusty and rotten iron nail.

"What's that?" I took the nail, and the red rust fell off my hand.

"In the eyes of the Rohan." Lu Yan made a gesture with his hands in his eyes.

"Why do you still have this in your eyes?" I'm a little strange, even though Arhat is not a god, but he is also an object of worship, how can he be like a cursed puppet.

"I can't say, I'll have to see." Lu Yan pursed his lips.

"Don't look at it, all the Buddha statues underground are sealed with iron nails, there are a lot of them, it's enough to organize a big temple!" Liu Dongxi's throat still didn't ease, and he said while coughing.

"That's right, it's the period of extinguishing the law." Lu Yan Road.

"Extinction Period?" It sounded familiar to me, and I couldn't help but repeat, "What does that mean?" ”

"The period of extinguishing the Dharma is a dark period in Tibetan Buddhism...... Wang Dake said with Liu Dongxi in his arms.

Lu Yan probably wanted to explain, but Wang Dake opened his mouth and gestured to let me listen to her.

"Historically, Songtsen Gampo vigorously promoted the Buddha, went to India and the Central Plains many times to learn scriptures and seek teachers, and later Chisong Gampo and Chizu Dezan were collectively called the three ** kings, and the period of destruction of the Dharma occurred in the period of Chizu Dezan." Wang Dake began to lecture again, and the content sounded very profound, "A cadre of aristocratic ministers was dissatisfied with the behavior of Chizu Dezan to treat monks, murdered Chizu Dezan, and began a large-scale ban on Buddhism, the temple was converted into a slaughterhouse, the monks were forced to be hunters, and the Buddha statue was buried in the ground with iron nails. ”

Liu Dongxi smacked his lips and listened with relish. I found it boring, because this period of extinction, like any other religious term, sounds very emotional, but it is boring to actually understand the content.

"Liu thing, how did you get in?" After Wang Dake finished speaking, seeing that we hadn't reacted yet, he turned his head and asked Liu Shi.

Liu Dongxi's hands were full of bruises, his face was smoky, he looked very embarrassed, and when he heard Wang Dake ask, he coughed and began to talk about his experience.

It turned out that just as I had speculated, the eldest brother didn't plan to go to the car to get a rope after climbing out of the crack, but took a fancy to this Buddhist temple. He knew that such temples on the mountains often had a very deep well, which stored ice and snow water, and if there was a well, there was a rope, and he planned to get a well rope to use it.

But this Buddhist temple looks very close, but in fact it is very far to walk over, but this delay is even more impossible. Liu Dongxi looked at the terrain and felt that there should be a shortcut to copy, so he went in the opposite direction to find a way.

His judgment was reliable, and after walking a short distance, he saw a crack in the stone scurrying down the mountain. Generally, when there is no road on the mountain, it is most reliable to walk this kind of place, this kind of crack is generally expanded by the landscape, and the trend is generally relatively gentle, which is very suitable for people to walk.

Liu Dongxi walked down the stone crack, but when he was halfway through, he suddenly slipped and rolled down the stone crack.

This thing is similar to a slide, Liu Dongxi rolled on it so fast that he couldn't stop at all, and in the blink of an eye, he turned from the open air to the underground, and finally fell into a puddle of stinky water.

Although Liu Dongxi is at the right age, he can't stand this toss even if he changes Xiaohua, but fortunately, he is also very experienced in this situation, and there are only some abrasions on his body, and there is no fatal injury.

The water was not deep, and he endured the pain a few times before crawling out, and turned on the flashlight first.

Looking around, Liu Dongxi was startled first. Around him, I don't know how many Buddha statues were placed, and their eyes were black and empty, and the original solemnity of the treasure became extremely weird.

He felt like he had fallen into the Fairy Cave Mansion, but when he saw that the Buddha statues around him were motionless, they were exquisitely workmanlike, with the style of Wei and Jin, and he could buy a lot of money when he pulled it out, and he immediately became excited again.

After some inspection, there are really treasures in these statues, and some of them are fine products of official kilns. But it is a pity that all the Buddha statues have iron nails nailed into their eyes.

Liu Shixi was very disappointed, you must know that this Buddha statue is not better than other things, even if the general fine porcelain is a little damaged, there is always some value. Even some of them have been repaired with curium, and they can even exceed their original value. But the Buddha statue is not good, the eyes are nailed into the iron nail is a great disrespect to the Buddha, such a thing at home, do not attract disaster is strange.

Although there is no market for antiques now, Liu Dongxi's professionalism is still there. So at this time, his huge sense of loss is very indescribable, and it is an exaggeration to say that he is lost and depressed, but it is more accurate to say that he is tasteless.

This cave is also a rarity, all the way up is like climbing a mountain, there are many buildings inside, and in some places even the gate is very complete, just like a Buddhist temple built by the mountain. On the top, there are rows of logs, and I don't know what is going on again.

Liu Dongxi remembered us, so he didn't check from place to place, but just climbed up along a road, wanting to get out quickly.

Who knows that this road seems to be endless, I don't know how many rooms I passed, but I didn't get anything.

Just when Liu Dongxi's legs were weak and numb, and he had no strength, the sound of hitting the bell sounded behind him, followed by the sound of chanting and worshipping the Buddha, and countless cigarettes curled out from the halls, piled up on the top like dark clouds.

This surprise is not trivial, Liu Dongxi didn't know what kind of demon would be worshipping this kind of eyeless Buddha in the depths of the ground, and ran forward with a rolling belt.

Coincidentally, the road that originally had no end suddenly reached the top of the cave, Liu Dongxi panicked, and after hitting his head a few times, he reacted, and lowered his body into a hole.

Because all the cigarettes were concentrated on the top of the cave, the hole was completely filled with smoke, Liu couldn't see, his mouth couldn't breathe, he wanted to go out but couldn't find the hole when he came, and he was bumping around like a fly without a head.

But there was no way out of the cave, and even the way out seemed to be closed. Liu Dongxi was discouraged, thinking that he was about to turn into bacon in this small hole, but who knew that he felt a little loose on the top of the cave in a collision.

He hit the base of the Arhat, which may have been an exit, and under his vigorous collision, a gap was removed.

Maybe it's because the five senses are only left with the ears, so they become particularly keen, and although Xiao Kan and I spoke softly, they all fell into Liu Dongxi's ears, and he knew that the exit was in front, so he used all his strength to blast Arhat away and crawl out with a heavenly leg.

Liu Dongxi obviously hasn't slowed down, and the words are intermittent, but even so, it can be regarded as a full of emotion, and several of us look at each other.

Who would have thought that there was another Buddhist temple under this Buddhist temple, which was dedicated to the Buddha statues that were buried in the ground during the Dharma Extinction Period. What's even more weird is that there are still people down here, listening to Liu Dongxi's statement, there seem to be a lot of people!

"Liu thing, what does the person below look like?" I asked.

"The devil knows!" Liu Dongxi coughed loudly, "Lao Tzu runs like a ghost, who knows if those who sing are people or ghosts?" ”

Singing? I was stunned for a moment before I reacted, Liu Shixin said that the chanting voice was a singing opera, and everyone knew why in their hearts.

"You rest first, and when it's dawn, let's go down and have a look!" I crouched down again to look at the hole.

"Gotta go! Lao Tzu must get this field back! Liu Shixi let out a cruel remark and coughed loudly again.

"Enough is enough for you, don't look for trouble!" Wang Dake kicked Liu Dongxi.

Liu was silent, and Lu Yan said, "I'll go with you!" ”

I nodded and asked him, "Shall we go back and wait for dawn or what?" ”

"Just wait here! There is still morning class at dawn, and I can't tell the hour, so it's safer to listen here. ”

I nodded, Lu Yan's plan was obvious, that is, he wanted to take advantage of the monks inside to touch in during the morning class, so that if the situation was not right, it would be good to retreat.

Liu was still coughing, highlighting a lot of black phlegm. I knew it was smoke coming in, and I didn't care. Follow Lu Yan to look around.

This look shows some clues, this ruin is indeed a part of the Buddhist temple, but the concept of a part of this place is different from the usual. Usually we say that part of the complex refers to an area, and here part refers to the upper floor.

The upper floor of this ancient Buddhist temple is in ruins, while the lower floor is buried deep underground.

If Liu's description of the following is true, then this is definitely not a small project. A large number of logs lined up in one layer, not only was the amount of work huge, but also the load-bearing of each point had to be calculated precisely, which was definitely a huge test for the people of the time.

This strange phenomenon is undoubtedly an illusion made by the monks at that time in order to escape the forbidden Buddha. In this way, it is even more incredible, how did such a huge project hide from the eyes and ears of the rulers of the time? And where does that huge financial and material resource come from?

At that time, those monks were under a lot of mental pressure, hammering iron nails in the eyes of their idols, and how much pressure they were carrying to move the gods and Buddhas of light into the dark underground.

The more I thought about it, the more I trembled with excitement, and I wanted to run into the ground to see this inhuman ruin.
