"This—I'm afraid this isn't appropriate!" Master Nian Ci objected to the comrades forcibly entering the Quiet Retreat, "Hui Jue Zhu has the habit of meditating late at night, and we have already disturbed the retreat of the Abbot Hui Jue, if we forcibly enter the Quiet Retreat, in case the Abbot Hui Jue blames him, the poor Ni can not afford it." ”

"Master Nianci, you don't have to worry, if there is any problem, we will bear it." Ouyang Ping said as he removed the electrician's knife from the keychain, opened the blade, and inserted it into the crack of the door.

Nian Ci Shi Tai's mouth was muttering, as if he was reciting Zen Sanskrit words such as "Amitabha".

The sound of the latch moving slowly could be heard distinctly.

The latch moves to the end, and a door automatically opens a crack.

The four of them walked into the round gate, and Mrs. Nian Ci walked behind.

The four of them walked through the small bamboo forest and came to the meditation room.

Liu Dayu walked towards the window on the west side of the door and said, "Master Nianci, you can shout twice more and try it." ”

Master Nian Ci walked slowly to the window and shouted twice.

"Abbot Huijue."

"Abbot Huijue."

The first sound is lower, and the second is much higher. But there was no reaction in the meditation room.

Ouyang Ping walked to the door and pulled the latch with an electrician's knife.

The three of them walked into the meditation room.

"Mrs. Nianci, please light the lamp."

Mrs. Nian Ci groped for an incense case with a candlestick on it and a box of matches next to it.

Master Nian Ci picked up the match, pushed open the matchbox, and took out a match.

At the same time as Nian Ci Shi Tai struck the match, Liu Dayu's flashlight was also turned on.

At the same time that the light of the match and the flashlight fell on the meditation bed, an eerie and low voice came from the opposite direction of the meditation bed: "Who? ”

Ouyang Ping's heart chuckled, and the hairs on his body stood up; Han Lingling instinctively took a step back, and at the same time leaned towards Liu Dayu's body.

Everyone was scared.

The candles were lit at the same time.

In front of a Buddhist shrine, there was a person sitting upright, and at that time, everyone could only see the side of this person.

Master Nian Ci is too familiar with this voice: "Abbot Huijue, please forgive Nian Ci for the sin of disturbing me. ”

Ouyang Ping and Liu Dayu had a bad premonition, and the abbot Huijue, who the comrades were looking for, did not leave their meditation room.

The abbot of Huijue is sitting in a precarious position, her waist is slightly bent, her head is slightly lowered, she folds her hands, facing a Buddha statue in the Buddha shrine, she does not move at all, like a sculpture. The only indication that she was a living creature was her lips—her lips quivered slightly, as if she were praying for something—but they were silent.

Abbot Huijue is worthy of being a monk who has attained enlightenment, and when everyone else is asleep, she sits motionless in front of the Buddha shrine and has a relationship with the Buddha.

Ouyang Ping and Liu Dayu didn't speak, they wanted to see how Abbot Huijue would react.

Master Nian Ci stood respectfully behind Abbot Huijue, bent down and bowed her head, waiting for her to fall.

Ouyang Ping walked forward five or six steps, standing about two meters away from the Buddhist shrine, everyone knew what Ouyang Ping wanted to do. Did Abbot Huijue sit in front of the shrine all the time, or did he just sit in front of the shrine?

In Ouyang Ping's opinion, there must be an entrance to the secret room in the meditation room of the abbot of Huijue, and Ouyang Ping had been thinking about this problem before entering the quiet courtyard. If Abbot Huijue had been sitting in front of the shrine, he would have been able to hear the knock on the door.
