Chapter 32 The White Rabbit Wears a Crown Thirty-two

Qin Tai said to everyone: "In the general hall or temple, the statue of the main god should be in the center of the main hall. It should be the same whether it's front or back, left and right. But this Niangniang temple is far away from the statue of Mazu Niangniang, but it is not in the middle. Was this a mistake on the part of the original designer? Or is it deliberately so wrong? I don't think there was anything wrong with the original design, but later when I laid it out, I added a compartment, or a darkroom. That makes sense. ”

The "old drunkard" master walked again, and he said: "My lord, from the moment you enter the door, you will take thirty-three steps to the statue of Mazu Niangniang. In other words, if you remove the statue of Mazu Niangniang, there should be thirty-three steps behind it. This hall is an inverted proportion, long in front and back, short in left and right. Qin Tai said: "After I discovered this secret at that time, I couldn't help but be suspicious of the baby Lu. Lu Baobao said that he grew up in Niangniang Temple, why didn't he tell this secret room? Is there something to hide? Or do you simply not know? If you don't know, this road baby must be fake, he is lying. Everyone nodded, and they all felt that Qin Tai's analysis was not only clear and understandable, but also very reasonable.

Qin Tai said: "This Niangniang Temple can stand here for hundreds of years, although it is said that everyone's protection is very important, but its own structure is also quite solid. I tentatively knocked on the walls around me, and found that except for the one behind the statue of Mazu, the other walls were made of large stones. Not only is it sturdy but also very solid, and a lot of thought was put into its construction. I'm even more sure that the wall behind the statue of Mazu Niangniang was added afterwards, and there must be a secret room compartment inside. Qin Tai said as he pushed the wall.

The wall didn't move, as if it hadn't loosened. Everyone looked closely at this wall and found that there were some murals on the wall, and the content of the paintings was taken by Mazu Niangniang

"Clairvoyance" and

The story of "Shunfeng Ear" rescuing people on the sea. This kind of mural painting is very common in Fujian, and almost every Mazu Niangniang temple will have it.

Qin Tai said to everyone: "The secret is in this mural. Let's take a closer look, what is the difference between the two gods around Mazu Niangniang and the statues in the temple? By the way, their weapons are in the wrong direction. I tried to turn their weapons, and found that none of them could turn. It takes the weapons of the two god generals to rotate together in order to restore the mechanism," Qin Tai gestured, and Zhan Xiaoxiao couldn't help but follow Qin Tai's instructions.

The wall really opened. Qin Tai hurriedly said to Zhan Xiaoxin: "Be careful, don't step on the corpse." At this time, Zhan Xiaoxiao was just about to move, and when he heard Qin Tai's words, he hurriedly stopped.

Fortunately, he showed his small skills and was able to restrain his hands and feet in time, so he didn't make any mistakes. After opening, the wall will close again after a while.

The last time Qin Tai disappeared, it was because Qin Tai was locked in the secret room. If it weren't for the fact that there was a mechanism button inside, Qin Tai would have been trapped inside.

It can be seen that everything really has the will of God, and Qin Tai is really a blessed person. Qin Tai instructed Zhan Xiaoxiao to use something to jam the weapon on the god general, so that the wall was not closed.

Only then can everyone see everything inside. The space inside is not large, only a quarter the size of the main hall.

The light inside is darker than the main hall, and the air is not too good. Qin Tai said to everyone: "After seeing this secret room, I completely concluded that Lu Bao was lying. If his mother did give birth to an illegitimate child, she didn't need to hide it in a vase, she just needed to be locked in this secret room. So although Lu Baobao's words are a bit like the real thing, in fact, the moisture in it is very large. The only way to find out the truth here is from this secret room. Zhan Xiaoxiao found two corpses in the secret room, the corpses were not decomposed, but now they have begun to change.

There were also some letters by their side, and Zhan Xiaoxiao picked them up and handed them to Qin Tai. Qin Tai not only didn't take it, but also showed the novel: "I've already read it." One is in Japanese script, and I can't read it. One of them is a kanji, and I've learned about it. You read it to everybody. Zhan Xiaoxiao glanced at Qin Tai, feeling a little unhappy, how did he become Qin Tai's assistant?

What do you call yourself to do? How did Xiao Lingzi's work become his own? But thinking about it again, it's okay to be obedient yourself, maybe Qin Tai will be better to yourself.

The content of Zhanxiaoxiao's reading is the self-report of a Ming girl, talking about the origin and past of this place.

This girl's name is Lu Mingzhu, it seems that this Lu Baobao is not a fake for everything. However, this girl not only does not have a son, Lu Baobao, but she is still a jade and ice clear woman until she dies.

This is a little different from what Lu Baobao said. Lu Mingzhu mentioned in the narration that his ancestors met the story of Mazu Niangniang who was rescued.

After coming back, the ancestors, in order to thank Mazu Niangniang, donated all their property.

Lu Mingzhu's ancestors not only donated everything they had, but also served as the first temple priest here.

Later, their family stayed in Maweidang for generations, and they were all Niangniang Temple Temple here. At the time of the seventh temple blessing, Maweidang ushered in the first catastrophe.

If the villagers hadn't taken refuge in the Niangniang Temple, the villagers would have been killed by the pirates. Facing the statue of Mazu Niangniang, this temple came up with the idea of building a secret room at the back of the main hall.

Not many people knew about this matter from the design to the end, only the village chief and the temple at that time knew all the secrets.

At that time, the village chief happened to be Miaozhu's younger brother, so basically no outsiders knew about it.

Maweidang is a fishing village, almost all the men have to go out to sea to fish, usually only women and old people in the village take care of the children, so everyone has a good relationship.

Fishermen who returned from fishing found some seafood with precious pearls in their stomachs, and the locals called this pearl

"Haizi". Ordinary fishermen don't sell it, let alone use it themselves, they think so

"Haizi" is a blessing from God, and only the most noble Mazu Niangniang can enjoy it. So they will accumulate it

"Haizi" is strung into a beaded curtain and made into a phoenix crown for Mazu Niangniang to wear. Therefore, the Mazu statue in the Niangniang Temple is not only jeweled, but also looks more sacred and spiritual.

Lu Mingzhu's ancestors had a wish, which was to make one for Mazu Niangniang

"Haizi" strung pearl shirt, which requires nearly 10,000 pieces

"Haizi". So it took them more than ten generations, and they still didn't have enough to raise

"Haizi". This wish became the final wish of the Lu family. About a decade ago, the horsetail swing ushered in a deadly catastrophe.

Lu Mingzhu once witnessed the whole process of this catastrophe. At that time, one group of fishermen came back and another group went out to sea.

Everyone was busy cleaning up the seafood that had just arrived. Because of the rampant Japanese pirates at that time, the seafood could not be sold at a good price.

The village chief decided to sell some of the seafood that had been released for a short time, and then pickled most of the seafood and the villagers would eat it themselves in the future.

At this time, according to the rules, the fishermen get

"Haizi" wants to send it to Niangniang Temple to give the temple blessings. Lu Mingzhu was not Miaozhu at that time, Miaozhu was her father.

Her father took it

"Haizi", carefully counting the number and calculating how much is still missing, suddenly a fisherman rushed over and said that the Japanese were coming.

Although Maweidang was on the coast, it was the first time that the village was harassed by Japanese pirates. The village chief organized the young people to resist the Japanese invaders, and called Lu Mingzhu and his daughter to take the children to the Niangniang Temple.

Little did they know at the time that the plan had been wrong from the start. The vicious Japanese are not something that dozens of men in the village can deal with.

At that time, if they decided to abandon the village and hide in the mountains from the beginning, they would have lost some of their belongings at best.

Lu Mingzhu happened to be playing with the children at the time, and when he heard his father's shouts, he pulled the children into the Niangniang Temple.

Because the Niangniang Temple is not big, it can't accommodate so many people, and some villagers are not willing to stay in the Niangniang Temple where the air is not good, so there are actually only a small number of villagers in the Niangniang Temple.

According to the instructions of the village chief when he left, the children entered the secret room under the leadership of Lu Mingzhu. There are a lot of dry food and seafood in the secret room, which can ensure that the people inside can live for ten days and half a month.

The old men and women stayed in the main hall, and Lu Mingzhu's father was with everyone. When Lu Mingzhu recalled later, he felt that the time was very long.

The children are in the secret room, and Lu Mingzhu assigns the older children to take care of the children, and they are not allowed to make trouble or cry.

She has to take care of three little dolls who can't walk on their own. Some of the children didn't know what was going on outside, and one by one they lay down bored and fell asleep.

Lu Mingzhu was very worried, she had heard people say that the widows were all devils who killed people without blinking, and they had no humanity.

After a long time, I heard outside the Niangniang Temple, a Japanese coward told everyone in blunt Chinese that they only wanted to get rich and did not want to kill more people.

As long as the villagers go out obediently, they won't kill everyone. If the villagers don't come out, the Japanese will burn down the temple.

After discussing it, everyone decided to go out. Because the Niangniang Temple is too small, there is not too much food, if you stay here, you don't need to burn the Niangniang Temple, even if you starve to death.

Lu Mingzhu's father was worried that the would-be would-be would-be temple burners, so he also went out. Before leaving, she told Lu Mingzhu not to come out with her and the children.

The villagers came out of the Niangniang Temple one by one, a few children who had no time to enter the secret room, and a few children who could not leave were in the arms of their mothers or grandmothers, which reassured the widows.

The pirates thought that all the villagers had come out and that there was no one else in the village. After asking Lu Mingzhu's father who knew Chinese, he asked Lu Mingzhu's father if he was the temple of Niangniang Temple, and then asked Lu Mingzhu's father, where is the property in the village?

Lu Mingzhu's father didn't have time to speak and explain, but he saw a bloody scene. The pirates divided the villagers into two groups, old and young, as long as they were men.

Some older women and some ignorant children also fall into this category. Those who were left behind were young women and girls, who were left shivering together.

After dividing the villagers, one of the would-be robbers gave an order, and almost all the would-be robbers started together. The target group was a large group of elderly people and men.

The pirates slashed at the villagers like slicing melons, and before the villagers could react, they all fell under their butcher's knives.

Lu Mingzhu saw all this from the blowhole, and Lu Mingzhu's father saw that not far away, the village chief and the villagers who resisted the Japanese invaders also died together.

Lu Mingzhu's father's eyes were red, these would-be robbers really killed all the villagers here, did they really want to slaughter the village?
