Chapter 354: Mingtang is in sight
The four people looked around, the golden Buddha statue stood in the center of this tunnel space, the height was flush with the top, and there was only a one-person-wide aisle leading to the back on the left and right, and there was neither a futon nor an incense burner in front of the Buddha statue, as if it could not be moved away after being stolen back and could only be thrown here, it was strange.
I tried to step on a few places, and tried to knock on the walls around the tunnel, all of them were solid, and there was no trace of a hidden weapon.
Ah Kang was very puzzled, he couldn't figure it out and stopped thinking about it, anyway, he didn't come for this, he took something and left, and left it to others to think about it in the future!
Thinking of this, Ah Kang beckoned everyone to walk back, and in the dim light of the torches, the corners of the Buddha's mouth opened slightly, and a purple cloth rolled tightly in the Buddha's mouth.
The three of them are also confused, most of the ordinary people worship the four bodhisattvas and the Buddhas, but there is no one who worships the Jizo Bodhisattva.
Because the meaning of Jizo is unlucky, Jizo Bodhisattva is used to suppress the hell and the underworld, and the evil gods and evils, and the magic power is boundless but has nothing to do with mortals.
In addition, there is no incense burner and no futon here, so it is definitely not a place for people to worship, so the three of them are also hairy in their hearts.
Even the three people who came specifically to find excitement had a little bit of fear at this time, of course not fear, let alone let them retreat.
Hearing Ah Kang's greeting, the three of them had a trace of excitement on their faces, although there were ghosts and gods, but after all, no one had seen it with their own eyes, they had all heard it, so naturally they wouldn't think about it over there, and they kept following Ah Kang to go deeper.
Further on, the road began to rise, and the steps gradually came to a stone brick floor.
The flickering fire fold illuminates the road ahead, a small platform of two square meters is the end, and the flap door of the passage is half a person high.
Akon handed the fire fold to the person behind him, turned around and pushed the flap door with both palms.
The clatter of the flap door was heard with a heavy, latching sound.
Akon whispered, "There seems to be a lock on it." ”
A person behind him urged, "What are you afraid of in the middle of the night, even if the neighbors hear it, they will only think that it is the tiles that have fallen, and there will be no major incident, you have internal strength, open it quickly." ”
The height of this tunnel gradually decreased, and the space shrank, and the four of them gradually felt a little depressed, and the thought of entering the branch of the beggar gang haunted their hearts, and they all urged Ah Kang to open the door quickly.
Ah Kang reminded them in his heart that this courtyard was very quiet, and he didn't find anything abnormal with his ears.
Therefore, Ah Kang gathered the internal force in his palms, supported the flap door, and gradually the internal force extended to the flap door, going straight to the place where the lock was stuck.
When Akoneli arrived at the flap door lock, he let out a low shout, "Hey!"
The four locks snapped in response, and the flap door creaked and creaked upwards.
Then, with a clattering crash, an unidentified object was pushed out and fell to the ground with a crackling sound.
The misty moonlight shone down, some dust drifted off, and Akon sneezed.
After waving his hand to send out some internal force to dissipate it a little, Ankang stood up.
He actually drilled out of the leaky shaft in the yard, and the horizontal plate of the leaking shaft was blown off on it.
Ah Kang looked left and right at the faintly visible figure of the building in the misty moonlight, and couldn't help but sigh secretly, "It's really cautious enough to set the tunnel entrance in this kind of ghost place." ”
"Quick, go up first. ”
The three guys saw that the entrance to the tunnel had been opened, and the once visible but inaccessible beggar gang altar was in front of them, and they all hurried.
Ankang arrived here, and the three of them had already begun to lose their functions, but they didn't want to reveal their identities yet, so as not to cause trouble, so they didn't mind their impulse, and they jumped up lightly and landed in front of the door behind them.
Looking back, the three of them hurriedly got out and squeezed into a puddle at the mouth, refusing to let each other go.
The dust and mud stained their bodies, faces, and heads were mixed up, and everyone was excited.
There is a rear courtyard in this whole courtyard, and I don't know how heavy it is, and there is a wall in the direction of the gate, and it is so dark that I can't see the patterns on it.
There are some stone lamps distributed around the stone path in the middle of the courtyard, almost one in ten steps.
The three of them crawled out in a mess, looking around strangely, and talking about some of the past of the beggars.
Ah Kang didn't have the heart to listen, and kept chanting the sentence found on Danchenzi's corpse in his heart, "Xiangyang, Chengbei, Guanyin, the roof beam plaque." ”
Now that the location is right, then the next one should be looking for Guanyin.
In this courtyard, there is neither a temple nor a workshop, and what can make Ah Kang associate it with Guanyin is nothing but statues or books, and I really can't think of anything else.
So Ah Kang looked back at the room, planning to go in and find a place to worship the statue of Guanyin first, such a place should be easy to find, after all, the incident happened suddenly, Danchenzi definitely didn't have time to make more arrangements, and the books were only afraid that they had been moved by the people in the court who raided the house.
Looking back, although it was dark, Ah Kang still saw a couplet at the door of this house at first sight.
Shanglian is, winter ploughing and spring planting, autumn harvest of 10,000 seeds.
The next link is, the streets and alleys, the gateway has me.
Horizontal batches, all in one.
Ah Kang muttered a few times, it was really appropriate, this beggar gang passed through the streets and alleys when it was glorious, and its power was all over the streets and alleys, so it was no wonder that the imperial court would deal with them with all their hearts.
As he was about to walk in, he paused, and said to himself, "No! This couplet should be used on the main hall, and it is not an ordinary house." ”
So he turned his head and looked, and directly opposite was the Zhaobi, which was the Ming Hall, the core of the beggars' deliberations.
Looking up, there seemed to be a few large characters faintly visible on the dark plaque.
Ah Kang's heart moved, although he came in from the tunnel without remembering the mileage, but it was definitely not far, why did he go directly to the Ming Hall, could it be that he inadvertently turned a corner underground, it was really strange! ”
The novelty of the three of them had passed a little, and they were reminded by Ah Kang, and one of them said, "I know, I know, this courtyard was originally formed by the merger of three houses into one, so the shape is not standardized." The second courtyard turned to the right from the back, and the land over there was an independent enclave, saying that it was related to Prince Mu, but I didn't see Prince Mu's family guarding, so no one knew the specifics. ”
The other said, "Well, that's right, we came from that direction, maybe the beggar gang put the tunnel here because the court didn't dare to check Prince Mu's idea." ”
At this time, Ah Kang was even more puzzled, when he came, he saw a strange statue of Jizo Bodhisattva, and now he saw that place was an enclave belonging to Prince Mu, so he was even more curious, with Prince Mu's strength, it was more than enough to take this piece of rubbing, why did he want an enclave alone?
When I looked up, I saw the couplet again, and it was not only the food and beggars that were related to the sun, the moon, the spring and autumn, and all living beings, but also the Jizo who sent the child Guanyin and the supernatural evil spirit.
It is the opposition of one life and one death, one yin and one yang.
Since the Jizo statue is under the tunnel, isn't the Guanyin statue there?
Thinking of this, Akang's eyes flashed with joy, there are definitely not many people who know such secrets, otherwise Danchenzi will never use Guanyin to remind him.
So Ankang jumped up, just like there, and although the three of them didn't know what was happening, they immediately followed.
