Zong Zhenlei put down the cup and said, "Let's talk about one thing first, I noticed one thing when I was collecting paper materials; In 1942, when the Japanese soldiers occupied the capital, they demolished the south tower in the Yunju Temple under the Shijing Mountain in the capital, claiming to be using bricks and stones to build a watchtower, but in fact they excavated the Buddha relics in it. I went to learn this time that Tongyun's master, a Japanese monk, was involved in this matter; In the same year, Tongyun's master also participated in the action of asking for "Zhaocheng Golden Collection", which was all told to him by his master. ”

Li Ruhui picked up the teapot and silently helped him fill the cup: "In this way, Tongyun's master is very talented!" ”

Zong Zhenlei made a gesture of thanking the tea, and then said: "Tongyun's master brought Tongyun to Yongzuo Temple because Tongyun's master learned that the abbot of Zhaocheng Guangsheng Temple, Likong, was shaved in Yongzuo Temple in the process of participating in the request for "Zhaocheng Golden Collection", so he attached importance to Yongzuo Temple; But he didn't come to Yongzuo Temple for some reason, and after more than two years he came here, saw the Xuanwen Pagoda, and went back to learn some about the Buddha Relic Pagoda by checking the information, and Japan surrendered; It wasn't until the Liberation War that Tongyun's master learned that it was the 'remnant' Japanese army that was fighting for the Yan army to defend the city here, so he took Tongyun here again, wanting to ask the temple keepers to find the treasures of Buddhism with the help of the 'remnant' Japanese army. ”

Li Ruhui put down the teapot, listened carefully, and did not interject.

"Later, just as Professor Li said, a low-ranking officer who 'remained' of the Japanese army suddenly appeared, and this person was not the person who contacted them; the officer was very dissatisfied with Tongyun's master's behavior, and asked him why he was still doing this because the war between China and Japan was over, and asked for whom he was doing this; Tongyun's master was very excited at that time, saying that this was the last chance to 'revive the imperial kingdom and magnify the heavenly cause', and that soldiers should be loyal to their own country and should not take care of things that should not be taken care of for the enemy country."

Li Ruhui stopped the teacup in her hand and listened intently.

Just as the two of them were arguing more and more intensely, the guns on the position were loud, and the officer took advantage of the deafening gunfire to pull out his gun and knock down Tongyun's master. As soon as Tongyun saw the officer shooting, he was so frightened that he immediately knelt down for the officer, saying that he was not Japanese, but Taiwanese, and this was the first time he came out with his master, etc.; The officer paused in surprise, and suddenly asked Tongyun in Hokkien dialect, and when he heard Tongyun answer in Hokkien, he didn't shoot again, but forced him with a gun, and asked Tongyun to untie the rope of the temple keeper, and then glanced at Tongyun's master who seemed to be unable to do it, so he took the gun and told Tongyun to go quickly in Hokkien dialect, and then the officer took the temple keeper out of the door together. ”

When Li Ruhui heard this, she asked: "What you said is different from the ending that Professor Li said, Tongyun's master is not dead at the moment?" ”

Zong Zhenlei nodded and said, "I'm not dead at the moment, but it's no longer good, Tongyun's master finally said six words intermittently." ”

Li Ruhui just picked up the cup to drink tea and put it down, and asked, "What did you say?" ”

Zong Zhenlei looked at his mobile phone and said: "I wrote it down on my mobile phone, it is six Chinese characters, Tongyun said that his master knows Chinese; That's right, that's it, it's 'wine, Guan Gong, incense, forbearance D', and the last 'D' is actually a vague pronunciation similar to 'D'. ”

Li Ruhui followed and reread these words and asked, "What does Tongyun's master mean by leaving these six words?" ”

Zong Zhenlei shook his head and said, "Tongyun can't say clearly, only that it is estimated that it is an important thing that the master wants to explain before he dies." ”

Seeing Li Ruhui thinking, Zong Zhenlei said again: "I think that although Tongyun and the master have not been for a long time, they have also walked together in many places, and Tongyun's interpretation should be the correct solution." ”

Li Ruhui looked at Zong Zhenlei and asked suspiciously: "You just said that the Japanese officers who came in later could speak Hokkien?" ”

Zong Zhenlei said: "During the Japanese army's invasion of China, some Taiwanese were requisitioned, so it is not surprising that there are Taiwanese low-ranking officers among the 'remnants' of the Japanese army. ”

Li Ruhui thought for a while and asked: "I thought of a question, I heard you just say that the master of Tongyun went to Yongzuo Temple twice, and the purpose of coming back to hunt for treasures for the second time was very clear, indicating that he found something when he studied here; Since he was going to explain an important thing before he died, would he be going to tell Tongyun the secret of the treasure he had researched? ”

"I also asked Tongyun this question, and he said that his master was very interested in Chinese Buddhist temples, including this Yongzuo Temple; Before they arrived at Yongzuo Temple, he only knew that his master had taken him out to look for the Buddha treasure, but it was not clear what he was looking for; It wasn't until his master asked 'where are the Buddha relics hidden' when he was forcing the temple guards that he knew that what his master was looking for was the Buddha relics. Zong Zhenlei said, putting down the cup in his hand: "I think his master should not have studied this temple thoroughly; Because if you study it thoroughly, do you still need to force the temple keepers? ”

Li Ruhui thought silently for a while, and suddenly said, "It's so strange! Without waiting for Zong Zhenlei to ask, she said again: "It's not strange that you say it's strange, the professor must have worked a lot to find Tongyun, but he found it and got in touch, but he didn't ask about it?" ”

Zong Zhenlei didn't understand her purpose for chasing this question: "In the small fishing village monastery, Tongyun didn't say a word that he knew Professor Li, so I didn't ask him about any contact with Professor Li. But why do you have to know the details of the professor's contact with Tongyun? ”

Li Ruhui looked serious: "If you don't do what you should do according to common sense, and you don't say what you should say, there must be something unspeakable." ”

Zong Zhenlei didn't want her to continue to fall into this train of thought, so he said: "We are not the public security to investigate the case, and this kind of thing is not in line with our research, so there is no need to force ......."

Li Ruhui frowned, turned her gaze out the window, and said nothing.

Zong Zhenlei wanted to change the topic, so he beckoned to check out; He pulled the table around the shopkeeper who came to the table and said, "Don't tamp it together." ”

The owner of the shop is a local, and he has never heard the word "ramming", so he was stunned.

Li Ruhui turned her head back, and when she saw the shopkeeper's appearance, she covered her mouth but didn't make a sound, as if she was waiting to see the next step.

Zong Zhenlei smiled and said: "Big brother, I'm sorry, I mean noodles, vegetables, and tea are settled together." As he spoke, he took out his wallet.

The shopkeeper was a real man, blushing and smiling, "Oh, oh, I'll do the math; Tea is considered to be a bosom friend, so you can charge the water fee for a tea place. ”

Li Ruhui stared at the wallet that Zong Zhenlei took out at this time, perhaps noticing that the wallet that Zong Zhenlei took out was so new, and the new tag had not been removed. Li Ruhui took a sip of tea from her cup, as if swallowing the words that came to her mouth.

After settling the account, Zong Zhenlei thanked the shopkeeper, stuffed the wallet back into his trouser pocket, and said to Li Ruhui: "Don't stare at this new wallet, I bought it myself!" There was such an embarrassing thing when I went there this time, I went to talk to Tongyun, and it was noon after chatting, and it was not until I left the temple that I remembered a letter from Professor Li who asked him to pass on to Tongyun's apprentice Kongyuan; But I didn't find it when I rummaged around, and I found that I had lost it along with the wallet you gave me, and I don't know when I lost it. He used to hear his buddies in the same dormitory say that his girlfriend in love is particularly sensitive, and it is better to explain a few words than to review ten letters afterwards.

Li Ruhui asked in a disbelieving tone: "But your documents are also in your wallet, right?" How did you get back? ”

"Whew! Fortunately, I still have documents in my mobile phone, and I reissued a temporary ID card at the station police station, and I used my mobile phone to pay for the ticket. After Zong Zhenlei finished explaining, he glanced at Li Ruhui and knew that she was suspicious: "Don't look at me with distrustful eyes, there are no wildflowers on the roadside there, only fish and shrimp are sold!" ”

Li Ruhui smiled embarrassedly when she was said: "It's hard to imagine that such a meticulous (local dialect: meticulous) person would also have such a thing." After a pause, he asked, "Does that letter matter?" ”

"I will definitely not open the letter that someone else asks me to carry, how can I know the content of the letter? I had already told Professor Li on the phone about what happened, but I still didn't want to go. Zong Zhenlei said and sighed.

Li Ruhui asked again: "I have another thing that I think is very strange, Professor Li asked you to go to that monastery, they received you and talked to you, it should be the professor who called there and said, why did you still let you bring a letter?" ”

Zong Zhenlei stood up and said, "I heard Professor Li say that he used his relationship with the religious department here to say hello to the religious department there; So I went to Houtongyun to receive me and talk to me; Professor Li did not mention that he had called the small monastery, and the letter was specially requested by Professor Li to be given to Kongyuan, and it had nothing to do with Tongyun. ”

As he was talking, Li Ruhui, who was standing up, turned his head to the window, and saw a dark blue baseball cap swaying faintly behind a parking car on the opposite side of the small noodle restaurant, so he hurriedly pressed Zong Zhenlei's hand, motioned for him to turn his head to look, and whispered: "Look at this hat!" It's very similar to the hat I saw in the tower courtyard today, and that guy is chasing after him so closely! ”

The hat dangled to the front of the car.

At this time, I saw clearly, it turned out that two children were playing with sticks and a hat, making a false alarm.

Li Ruhui turned her head and saw that Zong Zhenlei was trying to suppress her smile, Li Ruhui suddenly pouted with a gloomy face.

Seeing that Li Ruhui's misinterpreted appearance before eating came back, Zong Zhenlei hurriedly forked out and said, "I have a proposal, let's go to Ma Zhen's house." ”

Ma Zhen is Li Ruhui's best friend, and she was also a member of their extracurricular reading group in high school; In the past, they often went to her house to discuss their reading experience, because she had a large family, a wall cabinet with an extensive collection of books, and more importantly, her parents were generous, no matter how loud and how high-minded they were to express their opinions during discussions, her parents did not interfere.

Li Ruhui turned her eyes back and looked at Zong Zhenlei with puzzled eyes: "You know, Ma Zhen went to school in Shanghai after graduating from high school, and it is not yet the summer vacation, so she should not be at home." ”

Zong Zhenlei hurriedly explained: "I remember that in Ma Zhen's house before, I saw an original Japanese book, the title of the book "Research on Fangshan Yunju Temple", which was written by a Japanese delegation in the thirties after the inspection of Fangshan Yunju Temple in the capital, and that book also mentioned "Zhaocheng Jinzang". Zong Zhenlei stood up and walked out of the small hotel with Li Ruhui. This time I went to a small fishing village, and I heard Tongyun say that his master had participated in the demolition of the south pagoda of Yunju Temple, which reminded me that when the Japanese visited there, the south pagoda was still intact, so I wanted to go to her house and look at the original text of the survey overview at that time. ”

"Can you read the original Japanese?" Li Ruhui knew that Zong Zhenlei could speak Japanese, but this was not the same thing as reading the original documents, so the tone of the question made people feel that she didn't seem to believe that Zong Zhenlei had this ability.

Zong Zhenlei smiled and said: "Let's look at half a piece (local dialect: will see), it really doesn't work, and there is translation software." ”

got into the car and fastened his seat belt, Zong Zhenlei saw that Li Ruhui was silent, guessing that she was probably still thinking about the hat, so he led her to speak and said to her: "Ma Zhen's house is on Wulongkou Street, and it is very fast to go from here through Jingyuan Road." I just don't know if there is anyone at home, so you can help me call and ask. ”

Zong Zhenlei started the car, and when Li Ruhui called, his mind stayed on the question she had just asked: Tongyun's master went to Yongzuo Temple for the second time to hunt for treasures with a clear purpose, and when he was dying, would he tell Tongyun the secret of the treasure he had researched?

Li Ruhui's happy voice sounded: "Ma Zhen's mother is here, waiting for us!" By the way, stop at the fruit shop at the intersection of her house, and I'll bring some fruit to the old man. Zong Zhenlei came back to his senses and nodded. Listening to Li Ruhui telling some stories about Ma Zhen's past with a smile, Zong Zhenlei said to himself in his heart, it seems that the clouds have passed and the sky has cleared.

He likes girls with big hearts.
