Chapter Ninety-Three: Ascending the Tower

The pagoda is located in the eastern part of Jingjiang Town, which is not a short distance from the streets where outsiders gather.

Led by Zhao Qianwu, in order to avoid being taken advantage of by He Jianbing, several people rushed on the long street in the empty rain.

However, after only a few blocks of rushing out, Zhao Qianwu, who was at the front, suddenly raised his hand and clenched his fist, signaling the three behind him to stop.

The street ahead was occupied by a procession of greeting relatives.

In such bad weather, pedestrians can't even walk steadily, but this team is very persistent.

Needless to say, it must be Hebo's marriage team, and only the devotion to the "gods" can make them work so hard.

The big red sedan chair swayed back and forth in the wind and rain, the original festive color was soaked by the rain and looked particularly dull, and the sedan chair driver who carried the sedan chair before and after did not dare to hold an umbrella, even if the eyes blown by the wind and rain could not open and did not dare to relax in the slightest.

Before and after the sedan chair, the team of blowing, playing and singing had to play every time they walked a certain distance.

Gongs and drums, suona, the auspicious words of the matchmaker at the front.

Wind and rain, thunder, frightened cats and dogs howling in the nearby houseyard.

All kinds of sounds are intertwined, and finally it becomes a strange tune, and the listener panics.

What's even more surprising is that this greeting team is longer than expected, and there are nearly 100 people behind it, not to see the excitement, but a group of laborers carrying various things.

The tables, chairs, benches, whole pork and mutton, and all kinds of vegetables were placed on the carriage, and at the end there were even small carts piled with gold and silver utensils, and there were quite a few.

Why, now it's weird to ask for a wife and give a bride price?

No, it's not.

Look at this stance...... The dowry given by the woman?

This discordant scene made Yan Jing pout, and his eyes turned to the building on the side, ready to go directly to the roof and jump over the street, the other three also had the same meaning.

But just as a few people were about to act, Zhao Qianwu's eyes suddenly caught a glimpse of the man standing at the entrance of the alley across the street, and said coldly,

"He Jianbing!"

"Hey, you guys, are you interested in getting rid of that guy from the Special Affairs Bureau and cooperating with me?"

He Jianbing, whose eyes were deeply sunken and his face was gloomy, pressed his left arm against the wall of the alley on one side, and shouted loudly,

"I have a way to get you through this otherworldly incident safely, and there are a lot of benefits, as long as you can kill the guy who has been chasing me in this world for months like kraft candy, I promise that you won't suffer!"

"How dare you appear in front of us..... He Jianbing, even if you survive this incident, I will catch you. ”

Zhao Qianwu obviously didn't expect He Jianbing to dare to appear so grandiosely, stepped forward with his right foot, and said with the sound of wind and rain,

"Surround him and take this opportunity to kill him."

This wanted criminal, who is good at yin and evil spells, is undoubtedly the biggest destabilizing factor in this incident.

Solving He Jianbing can save a lot of worries.

In fact, a second before Zhao Qianwu's second half of the sentence came out, someone had already made a move.

"Catch me? It seems that you haven't seen the situation clearly, my ability can be used to the extreme here, and there are ways to deal with you......"

Before he finished speaking, the water blade that quietly condensed behind He Jianbing had already pierced his throat.

Not a drop of blood was missing.

"It's just a doppelganger, and I deliberately put on this posture just to make us suspicious of each other...... His real body should be nearby, this guy went to the east of Jingjiang Town, where the county government is located, although he knows the pagoda, but he doesn't know the route, and the speed is slower than expected. ”

In the interval between speaking, the greeting team in the middle of the street had already left, Yan Jing walked a few steps, grabbed the thin paper figure against the wall, and threw it aside, he didn't plan to give He Jianbing a chance to speak freely and delay their footsteps.

The team continued to move forward, and on the balcony of a house not far away, He Jianbing pinched a paper figure with a hole in his throat in his hand, and watched Zhao Qianwu and the others leave.

"Luo Ja...... No wonder so confident. ”

Even if he is a fugitive, he has paid attention to the news during this time, and naturally recognizes this bald sword immortal.

Glancing at the direction where the east pagoda of the town was located, He Jianbing turned around and left, walking in the opposite direction.

If the paper man didn't work, he couldn't get to the pagoda before these people, and instead of forcibly chasing them and keeping them waiting, it was better to think differently, there was still a lot more he could use in this town.

Without He Jianbing's interference, the rest of the team did not encounter any accidents.

There is still an hour and a half before night, or unitary hour.

The pagoda in Jingjiang Town is not located in a temple, but an independent building, of average scale, belonging to the small size of the three stuas among all kinds of pagodas, surrounded by dense dwellings.

Yan Jing and the others walked through the streets and alleys, observing the pagoda as they walked.

According to the records in the county government file, the pagoda had collapsed in a small area due to the earthquake more than ten years ago, and the tower body was also damaged.

When I didn't think about getting closer, I noticed that the pagoda had a clear angle of inclination, and the eaves of the second floor on the west side even had a considerable part of the broken area, which was still dazzling even in the dark sky.

"With the respect of the people of Jingjiang for the Sandu Buddha, the pagoda has not been repaired for so many years."

Yu Zhen looked at the hat he stretched out his hand and raised the hat, staring at the damaged area of the pagoda and said,

"Should someone have stopped them, the government, or the Buddhist carver in the tower?"

"Just go in and see."

With the financial resources of Jingjiang Town, it should obviously not be difficult to build a pagoda, and in Yan Jing's opinion, since the pagoda maintains this state, there must be some reason.

"There are officials guarding the main entrance, and they will stop everyone who approaches."

Yu Ke, who had been here before, said in the back.

"The pagoda is not only the main entrance, well, it is also possible from there, I don't believe that there are people who look at the sky in the rain in this kind of ghost weather."

Yan Jing didn't plan to go through the front gate at all.

The moment the words fell, he jumped on the top of the house on the side, and several other people did the same.

Using the roof of the house as a pedal, a few people approached the pagoda and easily crossed the short space and came directly to the window on the second floor of the pagoda.

The sound of the wind and rain easily drowned out the sound of their movements, and the officials below had no intention of coming out to take a look.

Yu Ke took out the knife he carried with him and easily pried open the window on the second floor.

As soon as the window opened, several people were stunned for half a second.

Because the position of this window is facing the side face of a large Buddha, but because of the dim light in the tower, the huge part of the Buddha statue is in shadow, except for the chin position, which is slightly brighter.

The center of this pagoda has been completely opened for the placement of Buddha statues, and Yan Jing originally thought that there was an empty floor behind the wall, so he could only jump to the ground on the first floor.

I didn't expect that there were still corridors and stairs behind the windows on the upper two floors, leading to the top of the pagoda.

Several people climbed into the pagoda through the window one after another.

Click~click~

Close the window and the crisp sound of tapping echoes inside the stupa.

Yan Jing took off his hat and walked forward to the fence of the corridor, looking down at the oil lamp at the base of the Buddha statue.

The wick casts a dim glow.

A thin, thin, mantled man in a brown-and-yellow ragged monk's robe was busy with his head bowed.

In the clearing around him.

Piled with scattered wooden blocks and various carving tools.

"This is the Buddha carver?"

Yu Zhen asked Zhao Qianwu in a low voice on the side.

Even if the pagoda looks badly damaged from the outside, it is one of the few buildings in Jingjiang Town, and the Sandu Buddha statue is highly respected.

None of the people present expected that the pagoda would be in such a situation.
