When everyone came out of their hiding place, the men in black had already fled without a trace. Everyone looked at the corpses on the ground and remained silent. After a long time, Yu Changchang said: "I didn't expect the Tartar to know the news......"

Xu Ying said: "Someone must have released the rumors, which made the gangs and Tartars in the rivers and lakes move when they heard the wind." Now that our whereabouts have been revealed, we have to change our hiding place. ”

Yu Changchang nodded yes, and Xu Ying said: "Before Xu came here, he lived in a lama temple for two days. It's not far from here, so let's hide there for the time being. ”

Yu Changchang said: "This is the best, let's go over." ”

Li Qiufeng thought of the fainting lama, and couldn't help but worry about him secretly.

At this time, there were only six Zhuang Ding of the Five Tiger Mountain Villa, and they threw the body of the headless man in black into the valley, and cremated the bodies of Zhu Ming and several Zhuang Ding into ashes, and the ashes were buried on the edge of the cliff. The horses were not lost, and Zhuang Ding put the luggage on the horse's back. He Yi secretly checked the gunpowder and said to Yu Changyuan: "Big brother, now that we have lost some of our gunpowder, I'm afraid we have to replenish some for the best of the best." ”

Yu Chang said: "Let's make plans when we get to the lama temple." ”

The lama's temple was not far from the hillside where the people were, but horses could not go down the hillside directly to the valley. It was because everyone had to go around in a circle and walk straight for more than an hour before they came to the gate of the lama temple.

Li Qiufeng saw that the door of the lama temple had been re-installed, and when he thought of Murong Dan's beautiful figure, his heart was hot.

Yu Changchang was about to knock on the door, Xu Ying said: "These lamas are all frightened birds, if you knock on the door, they will not open it if they say death." With that, he stepped forward with a kick, and with a "bang", the door had been kicked out by him.

Everyone crowded into the gate, and the two little lamas were sweeping the floor in the courtyard, and suddenly saw a group of people rushing in, led by the gray-clothed man who had been in the temple two days ago, and he was so frightened that he shouted, threw the broom in his hand on the ground, and fled into the main hall in a puff of smoke.

Zhuang Hengyun said strangely: "Lord Xu, why do these monks see us like they see ghosts?"

Xu Yingyang said with a smile: "Xu has lived here for two days, these lamas don't want Xu to stay, hehe, it's because they have suffered a little......

Before he could finish speaking, he saw a person walk out of the main hall. The man was dressed in a homespun shirt, his hair was unkempt, his face was full of wrinkles, and he couldn't tell how old he was. I saw him with his hands on his hips and looked at everyone with a wicked smile: "Is it you guys who came to the temple to make trouble?"

The man's voice was hoarse, like a broken gong. But as soon as the crowd heard his voice, their faces changed.

Just last night, everyone had heard this voice in the imperial tomb, it was the old man who peed on the vat.

Yu Changchang took a step forward and said: "We are not troublemakers, just passing merchants, who want to borrow a night in the treasure temple." ”

The old man snorted and said: "This is not an inn, you walk along the mountain road for dozens of miles, there will be a market, go to the inn there to live." ”

Zhuang Hengyun saw that this person was in shabby clothes, but he looked like a big man, he was not angry, and said loudly: "Who are you from the temple? ”

Lao Shou said: "Just because you also want to see the big lama?"

Zhuang Hengyun was furious, and he was about to make a mistake with his palms. Yu Changchang stretched out his hand to stop him and said to Lao Shou: "Let's rest and leave, we won't disturb the cultivation of your masters." I see that this big temple is in disrepair, and I am willing to give five hundred taels of silver......"

Before he finished speaking, he saw a person flash out behind the big pillar behind Lao Shou, who was the Great Lama. He walked quickly to Lao Shou, put his hands together in front of Yu Changchang and said, "This donor, please come to the hall to speak." ”

Li Qiufeng thought to himself: If you really have money to make ghosts grind, you can't imagine that this ancient temple in the deep mountains will inevitably escape the rolling red dust.

A little lama had already led everyone into the main hall, and after the guests and hosts were seated, the big lama said to Yu Changchang: "Where does the donor come from and where is he going?"

Yu Chang said: "I came from the capital and wanted to buy a batch of livestock outside the border. It's just that I heard that this area has not been peaceful recently, so I hurried day and night, and I missed the accommodation, so I had to disturb the Qing cultivation of the great lama. ”

The Grand Lama smiled slightly: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say." The temple is very quiet, and it is a good place to rest. ”

At this time, the old man also followed into the main hall, but he was at the end of the seat, and then he sneered and said: "Great Lama, the world is not peaceful now, don't let some people live in the temple, if you don't get it, you will get burned." ”

The big lama's face changed, and when he was about to speak, he heard Xu Ying say: "Great lama, there was a lot of trouble in the past two days, and I hope the big lama will not be surprised." When I left yesterday, I happened to meet these friends on the way, and they were all old acquaintances, and they came to your temple together. I would like to make a guarantee for these friends to ensure that your temple will not have any trouble. ”

The Grand Lama was originally quite jealous of Xu Yingyang, but at this time, seeing that this Jinyi Wei official was quite respectful to him, a hanging heart finally let go, so he also said a few kind words.

At this moment, a farmer walked in with a tray covered with a red cloth. Yu Changchang said: "Great Lama, this is a little bit of our heart to the Buddha, and I hope the Great Lama will accept it." ”

Yu Changchang stretched out his hand and uncovered the red cloth, only to see that the tray was full of dozens of ingots of silver. As soon as the great lama saw the silver, he stood up, clasped his hands together, and said in a trembling voice: "Amitabha, the donor is too polite!"

Yu Changchang said: "This is a little bit of our heart, and when we leave your temple, we still have a heart." ”

When the great lama heard that these people still had offerings when they left, his eyes were about to shine, and he kept proclaiming the Buddha's name in his mouth, praising everyone for their great fortune, and their wives and sons in the future would have a bright future.

The old man stood up angrily, and with a "bang", it was he who kicked his chair to the ground, and then strode out.

Yu Changchang said: "This old man has a big temper, I don't know where it came from?"

The big lama said: "This person is the gardener of the imperial tomb, and he grows flowers and plants in the imperial tomb on weekdays, and he is especially good at danqing. He has been working in the imperial tomb for more than ten years, but he often goes to this temple to worship the Buddha. It's just that this person is a good drinker, and sometimes it is unexpected, so please don't be surprised. ”

Yu Changchang said: "Imperial Tomb, is there an Imperial Tomb here?"

The Grand Lama smiled and said, "The Imperial Tomb is not far from here. The mountain behind us is called Lotus Mountain, and some people call it Babao Lotus Mountain, and it is the imperial tomb that crosses this mountain. It's just that the mountain road is rough and very difficult to walk. If you want to walk flat, you only need to go south along the road in front of the small temple gate, after walking for more than ten miles, there is a small town called Wutun, where the left turns west, walk five or six miles, and you will reach the boundary of the imperial tomb. ”

Yu Changchang said: "When I was in the capital, I heard a lot about the imperial tomb, but I didn't expect to come here by mistake. ”

The big lama said: "Fortunately, you have arrived at the small temple first, otherwise if you mistakenly enter the realm of the imperial mausoleum, it will be a felony to kill your head." You can rest in the small temple, and if you can't find the road, the small temple can ask someone to show you the way. ”

Yu Changchang said a few more kind words, and a little lama had already come in and invited everyone to eat vegetarian food. This lama temple is in the deep mountains, and it has been dilapidated for a long time, and the rice is just some green vegetables and tofu and the like, and there is no oil at all, and even the salt is not willing to put more. Yu Changchang and the others ate a few bites hastily, and instructed Zhuang Ding to send another fifty taels of silver, which was regarded as the vegetable gold left in the temple. The great lama was surprised and delighted, it turned out that the lama did not abstain from alcohol and meat, when Emperor Zhengde was in power, this lama temple had meat supply every day. It's just that later Emperor Jiajing ascended the throne, and there was no alms from the government in the temple, and the days went on to be poor, not to mention wine and meat, and even green vegetables and tofu could not be eaten. A large number of lamas had to leave the area to find another way to make a living. This great lama hadn't eaten meat for five or six years, and when he saw the fifty taels of silver and vegetable gold, his eyes lit up. At that moment, he hurriedly walked into the back kitchen, took out five taels of silver, and told the fireworker monks to go to the market outside the mountain to buy rice and meat. The meat should be fat, and the oil can be squeezed when it comes back, and it is left for the monks of the whole temple to eat.

After the meal, everyone chatted in the main hall again, and the great lama personally took everyone to the monk's room behind the main hall to rest. Li Qiufeng and Yan Dufei live in the same room. The great lama said, "You can rest in peace, and tell the little lama to do anything at any time." ”

Li Qiufeng whispered to Yan Dufei: "That old man's martial arts are not weak, this person has been hiding in the imperial tomb for more than ten years, he must not be an ordinary person!"
