Chapter Eighty-Seven: Life is not a Manchurian, and death is not a clear land
When the group entered the underground palace, the underground palace had been cleaned by the monks arranged by the temple at this time, and torches were also inserted on the walls.
Guan Hao walked in front with Yuhan in his arms, and as soon as he entered the underground palace, the first thing that caught his eye was a creepy thing.
The four corners of a coffin made of golden silk nanmu are bound by iron chains and hung in the middle of the stone roof of the underground palace.
On the coffins on both sides of the golden silk nanmu, there are these eight vermilion lacquer characters:
"Life is not a clean minister, death is not a clean land"
Looking at these eight words, everyone present couldn't help but be moved, what kind of integrity can have a determination and will.
The Manchu Qing Dynasty ruined the last Shu king's country, and finally became a monk in this remote mountain village on the coast, and finally died depressed and died in this ancient temple.
The entire underground palace feels almost more than eighty square meters, except for the hanging coffin being hung in mid-air, the north side of the stone room is full of spirit tablets.
On the east side of the stone room, wooden boxes are neatly stacked, and it is impossible to tell what items are inside from Guan Hao's angle.
On the west side of the stone chamber are ancient musical instruments, the most conspicuous of which is the set of golden chimes.
According to the old abbot's instructions, Guan Hao put the jade letter on the desk where the spiritual seat was placed on the north.
The old abbot began to chant sutras and pray for the deceased.
Guan Hao stood aside, his task was now completed.
At this time, I had the time to take a closer look at the situation in the underground palace.
Because this time Guan Hao is very real: the spiritual position of Emperor Chongzhen of Daming Sizong, the spiritual position of Emperor Tianqi of Daming Xizong, the spiritual position of Emperor Taichang of Daming Guangzong, the spiritual position of Emperor Wanli of Daming Shenzong, the spiritual position of Emperor Muzong Longqing of Daming, and the spiritual position of Emperor Jiajing of Daming Shizong.......
There are a total of sixteen spiritual seats, neatly arranged on a mahogany desk in order.
It seems that the spiritual seat of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty is placed in the north.
Guan Hao looked around again, and basically determined that this underground palace secret room was the final resting place of Zhu Hui, the son of the King of Shu, because of his temperament, he chose to hang the coffin and be buried.
It is not difficult to find from the furnishings in this that it is also the scene of the daily life of Zhu Hui, the prince of Shu, who is very obsessed with music and has collected a lot of priceless ancient musical instruments.
From the guqin in Xiaolu on Bailu Island to the six-rhythm scale instrument that unlocks the key to this underground palace, it can be seen that the prince of Shu is so persistent and obsessed with music.
The system and specifications of the ancient musical instruments in the underground palace must be the beloved things of the prince of Shu during his lifetime, and they are absolutely extraordinary.
Guan Hao originally wanted to open the wooden box of the secret room to find out what was going on, but now that he thought about it, he spent most of his life with the Manchu Qing Dynasty after the fall of the prince of Shu, and finally passed away in this small stone room, with full of hatred and indignation.
No matter what treasures are in the box in the west, and no matter whether the ancient musical instruments placed in the east are precious or not, let them continue to accompany the poor and respectable prince of Shu in this cold underground palace!
Thinking of this, Guan Hao kowtowed to Master Benxi three times in relief, turned around and prepared to leave.
"Guan Xiao Tanyue, please stay!"
The old abbot stopped Guan Hao, who was about to turn away, and looked at Guan Hao with kind eyes.
"Master, do you dare to ask if there is anything else?" Guan Hao asked with a look of surprise.
"Xiaoguan Tanyue has a fate with my Linji lineage, and it is even more fated with the prince of Shu, if it is not for Xiaoguan Tanyue, no one in the world can open it. It is also the reincarnation of cause and effect, in this secret room, I see that there are some yellow and white things left by the prince of Shu, these yellow and white things are worthless to people outside us and others, but they are still more precious to Xiaoguan Tanyue, since I am here, I will be in charge, let you choose three things to take away in this secret room, right? ”
When Guan Hao heard this, the old abbot allowed him to choose three things to take away in the secret room, and refused the old abbot without hesitation, and said to the old abbot categorically:
"Master, thank you for your kindness, opening the underground palace to place the relics of Master Benxi is also a trust to me before the death of Master Benxi, this is a trust in me, I promised Master Benxi, but his wish, I wait for the rice around the man, a promise of gold, entrusted by people without asking for anything in return.
What's more, the things placed in this secret room are all the beloved things of the prince of Shu, and I can't take away people's love. ”
"Amitabha, good and good, not arrogant or rash, not greedy or angry, faithful and righteous, and your children can be trusted!"
The old abbot turned to the old people of the family and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, Xiaoguan Tanyue has passed the three-level test, and you can choose the opportunity to enter the debate hall." ”
When Guan Hao heard this, he was immediately excited.
The debate hall in Rice Wai is the most mysterious place of the two customs chiefs in Rice Wai. Only the elders of the family and the successive patriarchs are eligible to enter it.
As for what's inside the debate hall? Guan Hao didn't know, and the old man in the family didn't tell him.
"Thank you, master for love, how can I take on this great responsibility! Guan Hao, hurry up and thank the master. ”
"Guan Hao, thank you, Master!"
The old abbot looked at the old man Guan Yongzhong: "Guan Tanyue, the fate of the senior brother Benxi is gone, the secret room of the palace here is sealed on the spot, let's move to the tea room!" ”
"Order!"
In front of the old man and the seniors, Guan Hao, together with the fourth uncle, the sixth uncle and the eighth uncle, the four of them worked together to pull out the stone door of the secret room that was shrunk into the crack in the stone, and Guan Hao took out six keys to open the stone door from his backpack. According to the previous method of opening the stone door, the door of the secret room was closed and locked with six keys, and everyone exited the underground palace and went to the ground.
Next will be a secret meeting to decide the future development of the mysterious organization headed by Guangxiao Temple, Guan Hao passed the previous three assessments, and he is also qualified to participate, but he doesn't know that this secret meeting will be the only person to talk about.
