Chapter Ninety-Five: The Ancient Buddhist Temple
Those buddies looked at Lao Gu, whose nerves were so abnormal, and their expressions twitched twice, and they smiled dryly: "Big, atmospheric...... Indeed atmospheric ......"
Qin Zhen was very happy watching from the sidelines. To say that I usually think that Lao Gu's two hundred and five energy is quite a headache, but at this time, I feel that he is definitely an advantage. Because sometimes "torturing" people in this maddening state is the mildest form of revenge.
Just these few soldiers who have never seen the world, in addition to following Fu Tianlei on a mission, what else can they see? Do they have any experience working together for a long time? Have you ever felt like you're in the same boat with two hundred and fifty people? Definitely not. So as long as they talk to Lao Gu like this for another half an hour, Baozhun Er will either be injured or crazy.
Seeing Qin Zhen's completely relaxed appearance, Jiang Qi also breathed a sigh of relief. While Lao Gu was talking nonsense with those people, Jiang Qi carefully observed the surrounding terrain. If Lao Gu doesn't run away from them, then he has to find a way to get rid of them.
At this time, I heard Lao Gu ask with great concern to those buddies very sincerely: "Brother, you are also from the Eastern Tang Dynasty, right?" This road is rarely walked, and you are also lost? β
"Ah...... Yes, we're lost too. The person at the head answered Lao Gu's question very unnaturally. Just by the thin beads of sweat on his head, you can know how entangled and helpless this person is at the moment.
Lao Gu sneered and said, "It's good to say if you're lost, we know the way!" Are you going with us? Or do I show you the way down the mountain? β
The big black man at the head pretended to be calm and asked Lao Gu: "That, where are you going?" β
Lao Gu smiled harmlessly and said, "Ascetics like us have always been wandering all their lives and have no fixed place. Where you're going depends entirely on how you're feeling today. If you are in a calm mood, sit quietly on the top of the mountain. Meditate and participate in meditation. If you are in a violent mood, it is also a pastime to kill a wolf or chase a tiger. β
Speaking of this, Lao Gu deliberately lowered his voice, and pointed at Qin Zhen very mysteriously and said, "Have you seen it?" Just my buddy, born with strange powers, ascetic deeds bear fruit. It's nothing to fight an old cow across the mountain! When you are hungry, you chase wild wolves around Mount Everest! You don't know what's scary. β
Those few people glanced at Qin Zhen meaningfully, and their eyes began to be full of vigilance and fear. Although Qin Zhen couldn't cry or laugh in his heart, he still pretended to be expressionless on the surface, as if he was really the kind of abnormal savage that Lao Gu said.
Although Qin Zhen and the others couldn't recognize these little soldiers, these little soldiers followed Fu Tianlei to Nepal. I have seen Qin Zhen a long time ago. Especially the battle of "Huarong Dao" at the beginning. They watched Qin Zhen and Fu Tianlei draw with each other. Fu Tianlei's skills and means, in their eyes, should be the same as God's existence. Although they are not sure whether Qin Zhen can chase the wolf and kill the tiger, but the people who can win against Fu Tianlei will not dare to come forward to fight if they are scared. What's more, Fu Tianlei commanded. Monitor only. Do not arrest.
At this moment, they listened to the meaning of Lao Gu's words. I know that it has been exposed. But looking at the incense ash and oil paint on Qin Zhen's face, as well as the maverick big/wavy curly hair...... The heart must be very bottomless. But if you are a normal person, who will be this virtue?
So don't look at how many of them there are. But after being fooled by Lao Gu at this time, it was obvious that his eyes began to feel weak and anxious. There are even two of them who are still making eyes, which means that they should run for their lives.
Lao Gu saw that the response was not bad, and immediately took advantage of the victory to pursue and said: "I JianyΓ¬, you should go with us, although my brother is not normal, but it has not reached the point of cannibalism." Don't be too scared, don't be nervous, we're not good people. β
The big black man at the head laughed dryly, and it was estimated that his face was almost wooden. He looked at Lao Gu with a look of fear, and then looked at Qin Zhen. Maybe the ascetic shape designed by Lao Gu is really too human, the big black man actually smiled convulsively and said, "No, no...... We're going back the way we came, so we won't delay your exploration......"
If it were to be the usual, with Qin Zhen's kind appearance, he would definitely not be able to suppress anyone. But as soon as this outfit is put on today, how can the three of them be as simple as dead perverts/metamorphoses......? In addition, they had also seen Qin Zhen's miraculous "ability" before, so it was no wonder that these buddies flinched from the battle.
In order to cooperate with Lao Gu, Qin Zhen rolled up his sleeves expressionlessly at this time, and then smashed his mouth, like a chef of the cannibal tribe, which was really undaring to look at directly.
When the brothers saw that Qin Zhen was going to "get sick", they immediately said goodbye to Lao Gu, and began to walk in the opposite direction after three steps and two steps.
Jiang Qi saw that those people were walking down the mountain, so he glanced at Qin Zhen and Lao Gu. He had already found a way to avoid their sight, and this was the best time to slip away. It is definitely impossible to say that these people left like this, they just want to find a place to report to Fu Tianlei and wait for Fu Tianlei's instructions.
Qin Zhen and Lao Gu ran neatly towards the col led by Jiang Qi. Leaving the main road, it is indeed easier to hide in the rocky rocks. By the time those buddies turned back, they were already nowhere to be seen.
This col is very difficult to walk, and the place above it should be a glacial area. The grooves and crevices of the mountain road formed by wind erosion and ice erosion became the perfect conditions for Qin Zhen and them to get out at this moment.
After running nervously for a while, Lao Gu looked back for a while, and finally said with a long sigh of relief: "It can be regarded as flicking the tail!" These grandchildren are really tough! β
"Old Gu, you are definitely the first to do this time." Qin Zhen patted Lao Gu's shoulder and said.
was praised by Qin Zhen like this, and Lao Gu was still energetic. He tilted his head and waved his hand and said, "Eh, it's nothing! Before, I was too modest, and a person like me, who was indifferent to fame and fortune, was reluctant to show off my extraordinary intelligence in front of people......"
"Yes, yes...... It's okay, it's okay, it's okay. Wake up and keep going......" Qin Zhen used persuasion to let Lao Gu return to reality. This kind of person can fly into the sky by himself without holding it, and it is difficult to return to the ground with a little support......
Jiang Qi beckoned them in front at this time and said, "Come and see, the road we broke into in order to get rid of them is much closer than the original road!" I can already see the temple here! β
Qin Zhen and Lao Gu also ran over as soon as they heard this, and stood in Jiang Qi's position and looked, the inconspicuous ancient temple was almost close in front of them. The special flame symbol typical of the Shangri-La Eye looks even more real at this distance.
They were so far away that the temple looked like two earthen houses. But looking at it now, it's not like that at all.
The temple was built on a platform raised from the mountainside, and the whole area and the temple seemed to be completely integrated, rising from floor to floor, and there must have been at least three main halls. The sense of antiquity and vicissitudes really exists, but the simplicity and dilapidation that Qin Zhen and they had always thought were shabby and dilapidated before could not be talked about here at all.
This place even reminded Qin Zhen of a picture from a certain apocalyptic movie, where between the peaks of the snow-capped mountains, there was an independent small ancient temple.
Lao Gu looked at Qin Zhen, and said to the temple, "This is it, right?" It's more complicated than we think. Hurry up and dress up, it is estimated that there are many people in this temple, but don't show your stuffing. When the time comes, if you really can't do it, pretend to be deaf and dumb, so that you can avoid opening your mouth to speak. I've tried it too, our accent doesn't sound like a local, it's too different from the authentic Nepalese language, so don't show up......" Lao Gu said as he fiddled with his hood and robe very formally.
Qin Zhen felt that the idea that Lao Gu said was also a solution, if he didn't open his mouth, there would be no danger of being recognized. This temple is much more difficult than they imagined, and the difficulty of the task of finding the Buddha's bones will naturally escalate again. If only monks can stay here openly, then they, "ascetics", must pretend to be the end.
After Lao Gu reviewed their images one by one, he turned his head and said, "Go!" Let's go! β
Winding up this snow-covered mountain road, they found that this temple was really strange, there was no shop in front of the village, there was not even a road to the temple! It's like a temple that appeared out of thin air, isolated in a corner of Mount Everest.
This made Qin Zhen also begin to wonder about the previous question of Lao Gu, how should the monks in the temple live? It's understandable to live in seclusion, but they always need firewood, rice, oil, and salt, right? You have to live on whole grains, right? The location of this temple is completely impossible to connect with the outside world. Don't...... Is there another way in the temple to another place?
If the 8,800-meter Everest is divided into three parts according to a stage of 3,000 meters, then the location of the temple should be the area where the first part meets the second part. The altitude is about 3,000, and it is still far from the top of Mount Everest, which also makes them breathe a sigh of relief.
The surrounding area is covered with clouds and mist, and the weather changes drastically in a matter of seconds. Lao Gu wrapped his robe tightly and said tremblingly: "It still makes sense to become a monk in this place, sit on the ground and become a Buddha!" It's freezing to the west! Now I feel that my brain is frozen, and what Buddhist principles can I participate in! β
Qin Zhen also felt that the temperature around him had dropped suddenly, and his teeth were fighting: "So...... You don't have the life to jump out of the world...... Be honest and be a mortal! (To be continued......)
