Partridge Whistle didn't understand the secret art of feng shui, so he didn't understand what the second half of Elder Chen's words meant, so he asked, what is a "one-eyed dragon"?

Elder Lichen looked at the moonlight in the sky and said: "Underground here, there is a stealth dragon, but the body is unusually small, and only the dragon's head has a hole eye that can gather qi and hide the wind, so it is called the one-eyed dragon, or dragonfly water." Purple three-star, if its shape is beautiful and fresh, then the Lord is a loyal and righteous man; If its shape is as mighty as Kaohsiung, the main military power is respected. Purple gas is like a tree, the most taboo branches and feet are running, the mountain shape is sloping and rugged, the face is bloated, the mountain is broken, all of these are evil shapes, and many people who are buried are guilty of rebellion. Due to the diversion of the Heishui River, the shape of this hole has long been broken, and this treasure eye on the dragon's head has become a tumor. After that, he pointed to the cold moon in the sky like a hook, and then said: "Look at the moonlight again, we didn't look at the yellow calendar when we went out today, but tonight is the moon value is broken, and every month is broken, and the Bodhisattva has to close his eyes." ”

The partridge whistle is more courageous, and the dust beads that have been looking for thousands of years in the clan may be in the Tongtian Great Buddha Temple at their feet, where can they still endure until tomorrow before they do it, so they said to Elder Chen: "Legend has it that there is an empty tomb under this Tongtian Great Buddha Temple, since it is an ownerless empty tomb, the disciple thinks that there is no need to live with common sense, and the disciple opens the robbery hole with a whirlwind shovel, and takes the things back." Let's be cautious, and it is expected that there will be no difference. ”

Elder Lichen was right to think about it, it was indeed too much to worry about, this tomb was used as a treasure cave by the Xixia people, since there is no main family (there are no dead people in the tomb), you can not follow common sense, what lamp to extinguish the rooster does not touch the gold, what three to take three do not take, nine digging nine not to dig, do not need to think about it, so nodded in agreement.

Partridge Whistle took out a hollow copper stick from the package, the copper stick was hollow, and it was packed inside, and the body of the stick had been rubbed by the hand to shine, and I don't know how long it was old. He also took out nine wavy blades made of stainless steel, and inserted them in the front of the copper rod like nine petals, and there was a special slot lock spring in front of the copper rod.

Finally, the partridge whistle installed a rocker behind the copper stick, and formed a sharp weapon for stealing holes——— whirlwind shovel, this tool can be stretched and contracted, and the diameter of the hole can also be adjusted and expanded by itself.

The partridge whistle turned the whirlwind shovel to make a hole, and asked the American priest Thomas to help remove the sand brought out by the whirlwind shovel, but the American priest Thomas was helpless, and complained while working: "Didn't you say in advance that you would release me when you got to the place?" I didn't expect you to arrange so many small shows for me. Know that in the West the priest is a servant of God, and the clergy are not required to do physical labor......"

Elder Partridge Whistle couldn't quite understand what the American was talking about, so he ignored him and focused on making holes with a whirlwind shovel. After about a bag of cigarettes, the whirlwind shovel touched the roof tiles on the treasure hall of the Great Buddha Temple, all of which are large pieces of green scale glazed tiles, and the tiles on the edge are carved with Arhat statues, which are not comparable to ordinary roof tiles, and at a glance you know that it is the main building of a large temple.

The partridge whistle lifted up more than a dozen pieces of green scale glazed tiles in the sand nest, threw them outside, hung down the lantern with a rope, and saw that under the layers of wooden beams, it was the glorious and magnificent Daxiong Treasure Palace. "Nobita" is the honorific title of Buddhists for Shakyamuni's moral mana, which means that the Buddha is as fearless as a warrior, has boundless mana, and can subdue the four demons of "five yin demons, troubled demons, death demons, and heavenly demons". The horse lantern of the partridge whistle can't see the distance clearly, and can only see the main statue of the "three-body Buddha" in the hall directly below. According to Buddhist teachings, the Buddha has three bodies: Dharma Body, Avatar Body, and Corresponding Body, also known as the Three Incarnation Buddhas, namely: the middle deity is the Dharma Body Virujana Buddha; The left is the Buddha of Lushena; The right deity is the Buddha of the body, that is, the Buddha Shakyamuni. In front of the three-body Buddha, there are iron casting clay leading Buddha statues to stand opposite, and on both sides are Manjushri Bodhisattva, Puxian Bodhisattva sitting statues.

Western Xia Buddhism is prosperous, and it is expected that the scale of this hall will not be small. Partridge Whistle nodded at Elder Chen, signaling that he could go down. Partridge Whistle has always been a loner, and he wanted to go down alone, but Elder Lichen was worried that there were traps in the treasure cave, and there were hidden passages and secret doors and other obstacles, and dealing with those things was originally the specialty of the Golden Captains, so he had to go down with Partridge Whistle, and they would take care of each other.

So the two of them each took a pill of skewers and herbs, and sent them down with a pot of Qingtian Dew, which were all secret medicines to prevent coma in an environment with poor air circulation, and then hung the gold talisman on their wrists, covered their faces with a black cloth, wore water and fire shoes, brought all the tools, and were about to leave.

Partridge Whistle suddenly remembered that the American priest was still poked aside, although Father Thomas was not like a bad person, but he and Elder Chenchen went down to work, and it was not safe to leave a foreigner on it, if he had any bad intentions, but it was also troublesome, it was better to take this guy down, if he was obedient, it would be fine, otherwise let this foreigner go to the mechanism in this treasure cave.

Partridge Whistle had made up his mind, so he pulled the American priest over and prepared to give him some secret medicine so that he could take him into the treasure cave. Father Thomas refused to eat it, thinking that Partridge Whistle was going to give him the mysterious poison of the East, so he quickly covered his mouth, Partridge Whistle didn't care what he thought, and poked the priest's ribs with his finger, and the American priest was so painful that he opened his mouth, and the Partridge Whistle stuffed the string of herb pills into his mouth, and the American priest couldn't vomit if he wanted to vomit, so he had to helplessly say to the sky: "Oh, merciful Lord, forgive them, they don't know what they are doing." ”

Partridge Whistle couldn't help but say, so he pushed the American priest Thomas into the hole in the roof of the Buddha hall, took out the flying tiger claws, and wanted to hang him down first. Father Thomas was taken aback, these barbaric Orientals have not finished poisoning themselves, what strange tricks are they going to come up with? Is it to be buried alive?

Elder Lichen persuaded beside him: "This foreign monk, you can rest assured, Lao Gao and you are both monks, my Buddha is very merciful, our monks are compassion-based, good thoughts, sweeping the floor does not hurt the lives of ants, cherish moths and sand lamps, naturally will not harm you." It's just that what we do is confidential, and we can't reveal the slightest rumor, so please go with us, and after the matter is completed, we will definitely let you go back. ”

Father Thomas felt a little relieved when he heard what Elder Chen said, and thought to himself that no matter what, Chinese monks were also clergy, and he had never heard of a clergy committing murder, so he asked Partridge Whistle to use a flying tiger's claws to drop him through the hole into the Buddha hall.

Elder Lichen and Partridge Whistle also went down to the Daxiong Treasure Hall, lit up the horse lantern, and shone in all directions, and it was indeed a majestic and gorgeous Buddha hall. The Buddha Dharma enshrined in the hall is full of precious stones, golden and brilliant, on the high seat and the lotus platform, the treasure is solemn, the hall is supported by 36 pillars around it, it is extremely firm.

When Elder Lichen saw the Buddha's treasure, he immediately knelt down and kowtowed, reciting the Buddha's name. Partridge Whistle used to be a false Taoist priest, but now he wears the clothes of a layman, and he also kneels down and kowtows, praying for the Buddha to appear and bless the people from the boundless sea of suffering, and his heart is very sincere.

After the two of them finished saluting, they stood up and looked around, and saw that the front hall had collapsed, and they couldn't pass at all, and the side halls on both sides were dedicated to countless Arhat statues, and most of one of them had collapsed. Those Arhat statues are all exquisite and luxurious, the materials and decorations are all first-class and elegant, each one is worth a lot of money, it can be seen that the national strength of the Western Xia was strong, and Buddhism flourished and developed.

It's just that these Buddha statues are a little different from what Partridge Whistle and others usually see in various temples, and I can't say what the difference is, but I think the shape is a little weird.

Elder Lichen told the partridge whistle: "The Xixia people are mainly Dangxiang people, and the Dangxiang people originated in Tibet, and later helped the Tang King to open up the territory and expand the territory, and really made a lot of meritorious contributions, and was given the surname Li. After all, they are ethnic minorities, and Tibetan Buddhism is much more influenced by India than in the mainland, these Buddha statues are all dressed in Tang costumes, but the image is closer to the original form of the birthplace of Buddhism, unlike the Buddha statues in the temples in the mainland, which are deeply influenced by Han culture, so it looks a little different. ”

Partridge Whistle and Elder Lichen agreed that the treasure cave of the Western Xia Kingdom should be not far from the Daxiong Treasure Palace, and it may even be in the Daxiong Treasure Hall, because since a tomb has been built under the temple, since it is a tomb, of course, it must be repaired on the feng shui level, and the acupuncture points of this vein are very small, so it should be able to be circled near the main hall.

The American priest Thomas followed the partridge whistle around in the temple, and the more he looked, the more strange he felt, how could they dig a temple in this inconspicuous barren place, and just now he looked twice in the side hall, and the exquisite Arhat statues in it seemed familiar, as if they had fallen into the cave a few years ago. It was unintentionally entered, and if you want to go back to find it after a few years, you will definitely not find it, how can this old monk look at the stars in the sky and find it so accurately, there are too many mysterious and incredible things in this Eastern world. Thinking of this, Father Thomas felt a little more awe in his heart towards Elder Dust and Partridge Whistle, and did not dare to talk nonsense any more.

The three of them went around twice in the Daxiong Treasure Hall of the Great Buddha Temple, and almost every brick and tile was rummaged through, but they did not find any entrance to the treasure cave.

Partridge Whistle said to Elder Chen: "In the main hall, there is nothing unusual, you might as well go to the apse to look for it." ”

Elder Lichen nodded and said, "Since you have already come in, don't be in a hurry, and look carefully from front to back." This place is called Tongtian Buddha Temple, it can be seen that the apse is for the reclining Buddha, let's go over and see. ”

In the passage connecting the apse, the Buddha of the Song Dynasty is painted, and the picture is mostly embellished with lotus flowers, which makes people feel quiet and carefree, out of the mortal and dusty, and washes the worldly thoughts in the heart.

Partridge Whistle has been with Elder Chen recently, listened to a lot of Buddhism, and the anger in his heart is much less, at this moment in this underground Buddhist hall holy land, suddenly there is a feeling of fatigue, for a while in the heart of the inverted bucket, there is an indescribable boredom, I just hope that this time I can find the dust beads smoothly, but it is a big event, and in the future, I will follow Elder Chen in the ancient temple to cultivate, and spend the rest of my life best.

But this thought is fleeting, and Partridge Whistle knows better than anyone else in his heart that at this time, there must not be a trace of slackness, and now he must concentrate all his energy to find the entrance to the Xixia Treasure Cave.

Thinking like this, he walked to the apse, and sure enough, as Elder Chen expected, the apse was even more magnificent, and a huge stone Buddha decorated by seven treasures slept in the hall.

Generally, the large reclining Buddha is cultivated according to the mountain situation, some of the entire undulating peaks have been processed, and there are more naturally generated Buddha states, its large towering heaven and earth, its small and can be contained in the mustard seed, its big outside, its small inside, all indicate the boundless boundlessness of Buddhism. However, this huge sleeping Buddha in the apse is much smaller than those built with mountain ranges, but compared with ordinary people who are more than one meter high, it seems too big, its body is more than 50 meters long, with large earlobes, sleeping on the lotus platform.

There is a celadon giant vat on both sides of the sleeping Buddha hall, which is full of "Yu Worm 1 dragon snake ointment" that has been condensed into solid, this lamp oil can be burned continuously for more than 100 years without extinguishing, the Changming glazed lamp that is enshrined to the Buddha is also used with this lamp oil, but now the oil has long been exhausted and the lamp has dried up.

There are also many stone tablets in the Sleeping Buddha Hall, all of which are carved in the incomparably complicated Western Xia script, which should be inscriptions such as Buddhist allusions. The partridge whistle turned back and forth, and finally set his eyes on the Great Sleeping Buddha, and said to Elder Chen: "This sleeping Buddha posture is wrong, and the disciple thinks that there must be something strange in it." ”

After looking at it for a long time, Elder Lichen also felt that there was something wrong with the sleeping Buddha, and said, "Hmm...... You can also see that he is worthy of being a master of moving mountains and dividing armor. This Buddha head is a mechanism, it seems that the secret path of the treasure cave, even on this Buddha head, the structure of this mechanism is not understood for a while, and it will be dangerous to be careful when moving it. ”

The partridge whistle took a bow, folded his hands, bowed to the sleeping Buddha twice, and then flew up to the altar. I saw that there was a not-so-obvious slit on the lips of the sleeping Buddha, which seemed to be able to open and close, and if it weren't for the master of touching gold and moving mountains, he wouldn't have noticed this detail at all. The Buddha's mouth is likely to be the entrance to the passage, and once triggered, there will be throwing knives, hidden arrows and other hurting mechanisms. Partridge Whistle carefully looked at it, and already knew everything about this mechanism, there should be no hidden weapon at the entrance, just a barrel-type passage interface, so he beckoned the American priest Thomas to help, and the two of them pulled the petals on the middle layer of the lotus altar.

Suddenly listen to a few muffled sounds, the huge mouth of the sleeping Buddha slowly opens, the sleeping Buddha is facing the gate, the mouth of the Buddha vertically exposes a shaft, and there is a hanging ladder on the wall of the shaft, which can climb down from the ladder.

Father Thomas was puzzled and amazed that it was so amazing that this time he didn't have to use the partridge whistle to do it, so he took the initiative to climb into the shaft to see what else was famous inside.

Partridge Whistle knew that this treasure cave was originally the tomb of the important ministers of the Western Xia, and later hid the treasures of the Western Xia court. Letting the American priest go in first is tantamount to sending him to death, this priest is a good man, Partridge Whistle can't bear to let him die in the graveyard, so he stops him behind him, let him follow him, and after Elder Chen, go down in this order.

The ancient tombs of Xixia have almost no contact with tomb robbers, and no one knows the particularities inside, only that they are deeply influenced by Han culture, so they have to go in and take a step by step with experience. Elder Lichen knew that the Partridge Whistle was an expert in dividing the mound and breaking the armor, and with him opening the way in front of him, he would not be wrong step by step.

In order to detect the air flow below, the partridge whistle handed the lantern to Elder Chen, and mounted the phosphorus cylinder on the vajra umbrella himself. The King Kong umbrella is a shield used by the captain to resist the hidden weapons in the tomb, and the whole body is made of steel and iron blades, and no matter how strong the machine is, it cannot penetrate. A phosphorus cylinder is a device that detects air quality and illumination in one, and can be interpreted by modern science as a kind of biological light, like fireflies or some marine creatures that emit light. The inside of the phosphorus cylinder is ground into powder from dead people's bones, mixed with minced velvet red wormwood, and when ignited, it emits a blue cold glow, which can last for half an hour.

The partridge whistle is illuminated with a phosphorescent tube, and the following is protected by a flying tiger claw with a vajra umbrella, slowly descending along the ladder, and it doesn't take long to feel suffocated in the chest, it seems that this is a closed space below, if it is not for the use of secret medicine, it will definitely suffocate and fall to death.

Partridge Whistle looked up and asked how the Elder Lichen and the American priest above were, if they needed to go up first, and then come down when they had enough breath below, the two of them signaled that it was okay, this situation was still within the range of tolerance, and they had already climbed more than half of it, so let's go down to the end.

Partridge Whistle and the others climbed down the shaft for about a cup of tea1 before going down to the bottom.

The shaft was surrounded by cold stone walls, very dry, and the partridge whistle turned around with a phosphorescent tube, wanting to see the surrounding situation, and suddenly a warrior in golden helmet and golden armor quietly turned out on the opposite side, raised his eyebrows, and did not speak, and raised the sharp mountain axe with both hands, and aimed it at the partridge whistle and chopped his head.
