185. Chapter 185 A Note on the Chair Three Keys to the Back Door of the Temple
After eating, Ouyang Ping found Mrs. Nianci: "Mrs. Nianci, let's go to Ziyunguan to have a look, which road is more appropriate?" ”
"Captain Ouyang, please wait a minute."
Master Nian Ci walked out of the hall, walked a few steps, and caught up with a monk and nun: "Mo Ran, you give the key to the back door to Captain Ouyang to use." ”
Master Mo Ran stopped, lifted his robe, pulled out a bunch of keys from his belt, and untied another key from the keychain, and handed it to Master Nianci. Then continue on your own path.
Master Nian Ci walked up to Ouyang Ping and handed the key to Ouyang Ping.
Ouyang Ping took the key and handed it to Han Lingling: "Mrs. Nianci, how many keys are there at the back door?" ”
"There are three of them."
"Whose hands are the other two?"
"One is in the treasury for later use, and the other is in the hands of Abbot Huijue."
Ouyang Ping thought thoughtfully: "The other one is in the hands of Abbot Huijue?" ”
"Abbot Huijue has to go to Tallinn every morning to practice."
Abbot Huijue holds a key in his hand, and I'm afraid it's not just as simple as going to Tallinn every morning to practice!
At the time of parting, Mrs. Nian Ci asked a special question: "Captain Ouyang, tonight, are you going back to the temple?" ”
"Let's go back to the monastery and sleep."
Ouyang Ping and his entourage bid farewell to Mrs. Nianci, walked out of the East Zen Temple, and went straight to the Daxiong Treasure Hall.
"Captain, could the three notes be written by Master Mo Ran?" Left to the east walked to Ouyang Ping and Liu Dayu.
"Why?"
"Mo Ran is responsible for opening and closing the front and back doors every day, she is the most likely person to know the secret of the abbot of Huijue, he has lived in Mingchen Temple for the longest time, opening the door, especially the time of locking the door is in a very special period of time, the monks and nuns in the temple, the space of activity is limited to the Daxiong Treasure Hall, the Jingwu Hall, the Jinzhai Hall, the Tibetan Scripture Hall and the East and West Zen Temple."
"It may also be written by Master Nianci, who just asked us if we would go back to the monastery to sleep." Han Lingling said.
"Whoever it is, this person will definitely show up." Liu Dayu said, "This person must also know a lot of inside information. ”
"Captain, when are we going to judge Abbot Huijue again?" Left to the east.
"Let's go to the Purple Cloud Temple first, and then we'll talk about it. Abbot Huijue is now a turtle in an urn, and he can't run away from her. ”
After a few minutes, the group walked to the back door, the door was locked from the inside, the lock nose was relatively long, and there was a fist gap between the door and the door frame, which means that people standing outside the door could also lock the door from the inside.
Liu Dayu took the lock from Han Lingling's hand, closed the door, and then hung the lock on the lock nose from the outside.
Why is the lock nose designed like this?
Everyone walked through Tallinn with questions and got on the road to Ziyunguan.
Night has not yet fallen, and after bypassing a mountain, under the guidance of Liu Dayu, everyone can vaguely see the purple cloud view of the ink-colored roof.
When everyone stood in front of the gate of Ziyunguan Mountain, night had just fallen, and the two Taoist priests were chatting inside the mountain gate, Ouyang Ping looked at his watch, and the time was 6:56.
After seeing Ouyang Ping and his party, the two Taoist priests stood up.
One of the Taoist priests said, "We're going to close the mountain gate, please come back another day!" ”
"Master, when are you going to close the mountain gate?"
"Seven." Another Taoist priest rolled up his long sleeves and looked at his watch.
The comrades saw from the two Taoist priests that they kept pace with the times, and no one stipulated that the monks and Taoists were insulated from fashion. With the deepening of reform and opening up, monks and Taoists are no longer monks and Taoists in the original sense.
