"I don't know if this red cloth is yours?" The old man looked at the jade Buddha wrapped in red cloth on the coffee table and asked.

"Dare to ask the old man, are these flat poles and cave things from Tianji Academy?" Qiao'er estimated that the topic was diverted.

"Are the two sons from the official family?" The old man looked at Qiao'er and Jingkong and asked.

"Old sir, if we were from the official family, you always think we would still sit and talk with you here?" Qiao'er said sincerely to the old man.

The old man saw that Qiao'er and Jingkong were not like the people of the government, and said: "This courtyard used to be a place for making Buddhist scriptures, and the things of the flat pole and the cave were the things of this courtyard. Just because His Majesty wants to destroy the Buddha, General Yang Jian ordered us to no longer make Buddhist scriptures, but to print official books. The cave was also sealed because it could not be seen, which may have been left over from the closure of the cave. The old man admitted that the two things belonged to Tianji Academy, and then asked Qiao'er: "I wonder if Gongzi can tell the old man that your red cloth is yours?" ”

"This red cloth was left to him by my brother Zhao Sunrise before he died." Qiao'er saw that the old man had admitted it, so there was no need to hide anything.

"Master Qingyuan has passed away?" The old man asked in surprise.

"I was originally a small novice in Xuanling Temple, and my Dharma name was clear. My parents were killed by bandits, but fortunately I was taken in by the abbot of Qingyuan and became a disciple of the abbot of Qingyuan, the master was killed by a general of the imperial court, and I was spared because I went up the mountain to chop wood, and the other brothers and sisters of Xuanling Temple were all killed! After saying that, Jingkong cried sadly.

"Zhao Gongzi, don't be sad, the Buddha let you live because there are more important things for you to do." The old man comforted.

"Don't cry, what is a big man crying about, your master's revenge, I will avenge you." Qiao'er said to the clearance.

"I just think of the old man, he is a little sad." Clearance wiped away tears.

"Master Qingyuan and Zhao Gongzi only left this red cloth?" The old man asked about the clearance.

"No, the master left me a piece of jade Buddha and a piece of red cloth, I thought that the red cloth was only used to wrap the jade Buddha, but I found a map on the red cloth, which marked Tianji Academy." After Jingkong finished speaking, he told the old man about the secrets found from leaving Xuanling Temple and entering the cave, to finding Tianji Academy.

"So that's the case, it's really hard for Zhao Gongzi, but fortunately there is Xing Gongzi to protect him." The old man said.

"I think he is quite pitiful, so I accepted him as a junior brother and protected him all the way, and it is natural for the eldest brother to protect the younger brother." Qiao'er smirked.

"Two sons, can you let the old man see this jade Buddha?" The old man asked.

Qiao'er handed over the jade Buddha wrapped in red cloth to Jingkong, and Jingkong took the jade Buddha wrapped in red cloth. When he opened it in front of the old man, a bloody jade Buddha appeared inside. Jingkong saw the Jade Buddha and said to the old man: "The blood stains on this Jade Buddha belong to the master, and I haven't wiped it." ”

"The two sons are here for a while, and I'll pick up the items." After speaking, he will face the dark room on the left (the hall is called the hall, also called the bright room, and the dark room is the bedroom, which is generally on the left side of the hall. Walk. After a while, the old man came out of the dark with a box, put it on the square table, opened the box, and a red cloth appeared inside, and the red cloth seemed to be wrapped in something, could it be also the Jade Buddha?

The old man took out the red cloth and opened it, and it was not a jade Buddha, but a stone carved head.

"When Emperor Taiwu of the Northern Wei Dynasty Tuoba Tao destroyed the Buddha, and later Emperor Wencheng Tuoba Jun (Jun) in order to prevent the occurrence of the Buddha in the future, he sent eight families to take charge of eight maps and eight stone statues, and these eight maps and eight stone statues hide a secret. When encountering the Buddha extermination incident again, someone will take a map and a piece of jade Buddha and gather the eight groups to carry out a Dharma protection action. This red cloth map and stone statue have been passed down in our family for more than 120 years, and now it is finally coming in handy. It turns out that the Jade Buddha has been hidden in the Xuanling Temple, and now that the Jade Buddha has appeared, it is time to launch a Dharma protection action. The old man told Jingkong and Qiao'er the secret of the Jade Buddha, and then said: "The old man is old, I can't protect the Dharma with the two sons, I asked my child to accompany the two sons to gather the eight tribes together to protect the Dharma." ”

"Someone's coming!" The old man shouted outside the door.

After a while, the scholar came in and said to the old man, "Chief, what do you command?" ”

"Go and call the Heavenly Prince." The old man said to the scholar.

"Yes! Mountain long. The boy went out with that.

After a while, a handsome boy pushed the door in, not very old, about twenty years old, with long eyebrows and clear eyes. After entering the house, he turned around and closed the door, and saluted the old man, "Father, I wonder what the father has to call the child?" ”

"Oh my God, I've seen Zhao Gongzi and Xing Gongzi." The old man said to the handsome Xiaosheng, and then to Jingkong and Qiao'er: "Zhao Gongzi, Xing Gongzi, this is Xiao'er Zeng Youtian is twenty-two years old this year. The children read poetry and books, and they also have a little knowledge of Buddhist scriptures. ”

You Tian smiled at Jingkong and Qiao'er and said, "Zhao Gongzi is good, Xing Gongzi is good!" ”

Jingkong and Qiao'er also returned the salute: "Hello Zeng Gongzi!" ”

"Two sons, don't be so polite, just call me from the sky." You are polite to the sky.

"The three of you don't have to be polite, the three of you will go together in the future, you may be older from the sky, you have to take care of the two sons more." After the old man finished speaking, he then said to Youtian: "Youtian, you take the map and stone statue of your father, and accompany the two sons to gather the eight people to protect the Dharma together. ”

"Yes! The child must do his best to gather the eight tribes with the two sons to protect the Dharma. You Tian bowed to the old man, and then took the red cloth map and stone statue.

"According to the instructions on the red cloth map, you should go to the Weishui side of Xianyang to find a family surnamed Su in Yaoshui Village. Find this house, and they will give you the next map and stone statue of the person you are looking for, and they will send someone to find the map and stone statue of the next location with you. When you find this house, you show the red cloth and the stone statue, and when they ask if you have any other items, then you take out the jade Buddha, and they will take out the red cloth map and the stone statue. The old man said to the three of them.

"Okay!" The three of them answered the old man at the same time.

"The three of you have a good rest today, and you will leave for Xianyang early tomorrow morning." The old man said.

"By the sky, you take the two sons to dinner, and then arrange two guest rooms for the two sons to have a good rest." The old man said to Youtian.

"Okay, father, I'll go and make arrangements" After you Tian finished speaking to the old man, he turned to Jingkong and Qiao'er and said, "The two sons will go to dinner with me." ”

Jingkong and Qiao'er gave a salute to the old man, and then went out with Youtian.
