After discovering the mystery of the stone Buddha, Zhu Han's students unceremoniously raised their hoes and pickaxes and dug in the dirt next to the stone statue.

A jingling sound reached everyone's ears.

The monks of the Temple of Mercy and Grace are about to crack their teeth one by one.

"Stop! If you treat the Buddha like this, aren't you afraid that the Buddha will punish you? ”

"You thieves deserve eighteen levels of hell."

The abbot of the Temple of Mercy and Grace, Hui Ci, sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, chanting the Diamond Sutra in his mouth, as if he had completely given up resistance.

The young monks tried to rush over to stop the sweaty students from continuing to destroy the Buddha statue.

But the wolf-like brocade guards around them firmly blocked them from the other side.

Although these brocade guards did not dare to do anything to the Buddha statues, they were not afraid of these ordinary monks.

In addition to those monks, there are also many devout Buddhists who keep cursing Zhu Han's students.

"You thieves who don't respect the Buddha will be punished sooner or later."

"Buddha bless! Buddha bless! ”

Like those monks, these ordinary believers were also blocked by the Jinyi Guard, and they did not dare to rush over to help in the face of the Jinyi Guard's swords and guns.

I could only watch as Zhu Han's students dug up the soil underneath.

To the surprise of Zhu Han's students, this master seemed to be a little older than they expected.

It was only about half a meter, and there were still stones underneath.

They didn't see what they expected to happen.

"Could it be that we guessed wrong?" One of them asked with some concern.

"You can't be wrong, you see there is no carving down here, if it's a real Buddha statue, there should be a carving underneath."

Another person also confidently explained: "And the more you dig down, the heavier the moisture becomes, and if it weren't for the groundwater below, someone must have watered a lot to become like this." ”

Fortunately, when Zhu Han was teaching them, he didn't let them study every day, and they had to run and exercise every day.

Otherwise, it would take a lot of trouble to dig this stone Buddha out of the ground.

After digging for a while, a student of Zhu Han shouted in surprise: "Look! It's empty underneath. ”

Everyone hurriedly looked over, and sure enough, they found that there was no soil under the Buddha statue.

"Dig bigger." After confirming their guesses, everyone was in high spirits, their waists were no longer sore, and their legs were no longer painful.

Excitement began to continue digging up.

It didn't take long for a large pit to dig under the Buddha statue.

As the pit widened, everyone gradually saw the situation inside.

The Buddha statue is not empty, but rows of yellow sprouts can be seen.

"You see, I said it before, it must be the effect of bean sprouts." A student of Zhu Han said proudly and proudly to his companions around him.

Someone next to him immediately hit him unceremoniously: "But this is not quite right, although the bean sprouts can generate a lot of power when they sprout, it is impossible to top such a heavy stone Buddha to such a high level, right?" No matter what, the power of plants is limited after all. ”

Soon someone answered his question, and Shen Longliang knocked on the stone Buddha with an iron pickaxe in his hand.

"I think it's because this stone Buddha is hollow, they should have pulled out all the stones inside, so this stone Buddha is far from as big as it seems."

This Buddha statue has been buried in the ground before, so no one knows how heavy this Buddha statue is.

After discovering that the Buddha statue might be hollow, Zhu Han's students simply hollowed out the soil around the Buddha statue.

After digging up all the soil, Zhu Han's students also discovered the problem.

This seemingly huge Buddha statue is indeed much lighter than they imagined.

Two or three people together lifted the Buddha statue with ease.

After that, they dragged the Buddha statue straight down.

When they saw the full view of this Buddha statue, everyone was a little dumbfounded.

"Why is this happening?" The monks of the Temple of Mercy and Grace exclaimed in disbelief.

Even Master Hui Ci, the presiding officer of the Temple of Mercy and Grace, completely lost the detached appearance he had just now.

Instead, his mouth closed in shock, and it took him a long time before he realized what was happening.

He sat on the ground with a pale face, and kept chanting Amitabha Buddha in his mouth.

The believers were all as if they had seen ghosts.

The most important reason why they are this kind of performance is the shape of this Buddha statue.

Unlike all Buddha statues, this one is about how tall a person is?

Only the upper part is the appearance of a complete Buddha statue, while under the Buddha statue, there is a rectangular stone pillar.

No Buddhist temple or anyone who wants to make a statue of the Buddha will never be able to make it look like this.

It can be said that as long as you see this Buddha statue, you know that the person who made the statue is definitely not a Buddhist.

And since the person who made the statue is not a Buddhist, this Buddha statue appears in the temple.

Then it's very intriguing.

After Zhu Han's students dug up the Buddha statue, He Fengyu slowly walked to the Buddha statue.

Pointing to the big pit that had just been dug under the Buddha statue, he said to everyone: "Ladies and gentlemen, please see, there is not solid land under this Buddha statue, but someone has planted soybeans under it." ”

"The reason why the Buddha statue grows every day is simply because the growing soybeans lift the Buddha statue out of the ground."

"The Buddha's present life is auspicious, but if all this is a game done by people with ulterior motives, then it is a different matter."

Hearing He Fengyu's explanation, the people present finally reacted.

"So we've all been deceived!"

"I used to think that there was something wrong with the monks of the Temple of Mercy and Grace, and they might be a group of thieves."

Some people even cried bitterly and shouted: "Thank you little fairy for the order, otherwise we would have been kept in the dark and almost made something that we regretted." ”

"These monks who died of kindness must not be spared."

"Kill them, thieves!"

In the blink of an eye, the situation reversed, and the monks of Ci'en Temple changed from high-ranking monks admired by everyone to thieves who everyone shouted and beaten.

After all, these people were just ordinary monks, and they were overwhelmed by the sudden drastic changes.

Almost all of the saints were pale and cowered together in horror.

They can't figure out why things are the way they are.

is obviously the auspicious fortune of the Buddha's current life, how did it become a conspiracy with ulterior motives in the blink of an eye?

What makes them cry the most is that they can't find a place to argue even if they want to.

This stone Buddha appeared in their Temple of Mercy and Grace, and they also regarded the birth of the Buddha as a sign of the prosperity of Buddhism.

Therefore, it can be said that this matter has been vigorously publicized during this period of time.

As a result, it turned out that every word I had said in the past had become a knife that was about to be pierced in my body.

All the monks up and down the Temple of Mercy and Grace all looked helplessly at Abbot Hui Ci.

"Amitabha!" In this desperate situation, the abbot of mercy calmed down.

With the support of several monks around him, he stood up with difficulty.

In the direction of the wind and rain, he recited a Buddha name: "Thank you, donor." ”

His face was full of piety.

It's just that...... As soon as these words came out, the monks of Ci'en Temple were a little confused.

Shouldn't the abbot be sealed because he was hit too hard?

"Abbot, these people have destroyed the Buddha statues in our Buddhist temple, and you even thank them."

"These people are thieves who don't respect the Buddha at all!"

Listening to the monks' complaints, Abbot Huici shook his head slowly: "Don't say any more." ”

"Don't you understand it now? We are simply being used by people with intentions. ”

"This stone Buddha is not an auspicious Buddha at all, but is just used by some people as a stone to achieve their goals."

"If it weren't for the lords of the imperial court who helped us see through the true face of this stone Buddha, we would still worship a fake Buddha as a real Buddha."

"It is our own minds that are blinded by greed, unable to distinguish even the most basic right from wrong."

Instead, he chanted and worshipped a fake Buddha...... Amitabha! ”

Half of Abbot Huici's words turned into a Buddha horn in the end.

Obviously, even he, a monk who has four empty eyes, can't say those words.

He Fengyu was a little surprised, originally in their expectations, these monks would definitely not be able to accept the reality.

Maybe they will do some irreparable drastic act because they have exposed the lie.

But I didn't expect that this Huici abbot of the Temple of Mercy and Grace would be so deeply aware of righteousness.

Instead of holding a grudge against them, he helped the agitated monks to persuade them.

"The master is indeed a high-ranking monk." He Fengyu sighed: "The inferior people are not aimed at the master, nor are they aimed at the Temple of Mercy and Grace. ”

"It's just that the so-called Stone Buddha accident incident this time is basically something that those White Lotus Sect thieves made up in order to disrupt my Datong Mansion."

"The monks should also see that the reason why this stone Buddha can grow every day is only because the sprouted soybeans below have lifted him up, and it has nothing to do with the Buddha's manifestation."

If it weren't for Abbot Huici's reassurance, even if He Fengyu explained so, these monks probably wouldn't believe it.

But their abbot has already clarified together, although they are very reluctant in their hearts, they can only believe He Fengyu's words.

The surrounding people who came to see the birth of the stone Buddha exploded in a flash.

"Oh my God, it's really fake."

"I always thought it was a manifestation of the Buddha, but I didn't expect it to be just a scam."

"I think this is fundamentally made by these monks, adults must check these monks, they must have a problem."

"Yes, maybe these monks are the thieves of the White Lotus Sect!"

The shock of these people gradually turned into anger against the monks of the Temple of Mercy and Grace.

The voices of condemnation were like angry waves, as if they could drown these monks at any time.

In the face of the anger of the people, even the abbot of the Temple of Mercy and Grace couldn't help but turn a little pale.

It was He Fengyu who stood up at this time: "Fellow villagers, please rest assured. ”

"The purpose of my visit this time is to debunk the conspiracy of those thieves. As for whether the monks of the Temple of Mercy and Grace were involved, we will naturally investigate it as well. ”

"The purpose of the imperial court is only one, it will never wronged a good person, but it will never let go of a bad person."

"As long as our court is still there, we will never allow those thieves with ulterior motives to deceive my people in the Ming Dynasty!"

Hearing He Fengyu's sonorous and powerful words, a burst of earth-shattering cheers erupted in the crowd.

"Good!"

"What the little fairy said is so good!"

"Fortunately, the little fairy debunked this scam, otherwise we would still be kept in the dark."

There are also some practical problems that come to mind.

"That's right, I also gave the stone Buddha twenty incense money before, and the bald donkeys quickly returned the fresh money to me!"

These words seemed to ignite a thunderbolt in the crowd.

"Yes, hurry up and return the incense money we donated."

"Our money is for the Buddha, not for this fake Buddha!"

"Return the money! Refund! Refund! ”

A thousand words finally converged into two words.

After all, the disaster in Datong Mansion has just passed, and the people are living a very difficult life.

The reason why they were willing to give incense money before was also because they wanted the Buddha to bless themselves.

But now that they found out that this Buddha was fake, they couldn't care about anything else under the huge anger, and just wanted their money back.

This change caught Zhu Han's students a little off guard.

"Folks, please don't be impatient, I'll think of a way." He Fengyu appeased these people first.

Then he hurriedly returned to his senior brothers and asked worriedly, "What now?" Do you want to return the money to these people? ”

Fang Hubin scratched his head: "Then it must be returned, these people are ordinary people, and it is not easy to make some money." So much money was so easily wasted, and I wouldn't be willing to change it to me. ”

Shen Longliang said angrily: "To put it simply, do you know how many people have come to worship this so-called stone Buddha in the past few days?" And how many people have paid this incense money? ”

"If you don't get it right, you might make a big joke."

Others also began to express their opinions.

"I also don't think that the money should be refunded because they sent it themselves, and now they want to return it, how is it possible?"

"After all, what we represent now is the imperial court, so we can't just watch these people suffer losses, right?"

A few of them said a word, and no one could convince anyone for a while.

However, they did not continue to argue, but quickly made a decision.

Since they don't know what to do, give the question to their teacher.

That is, Zhu Han came to deal with it personally. (End of chapter)
