Chapter 241 (Pursuit of Strange Treasures)
Shaanxi and Sichuan and Shu are closely connected, but Jiading is the hinterland of Shu, separated from the border of Shaanxi by more than 1,000 miles, a group of people go straight to the southwest, walk through the streets, go over the mountains and mountains, sometimes by water, sometimes by land, by boat to change horses also have several times.
On the way to Jiading, there are more and more people in the rivers and lakes, there are more than a dozen groups, there are seven or eight teams, there are also groups of three or five, and there are more loners, with different behaviors, all of them are in a state of wind and fire, and they are not willing to delay on the road, even if Ling Xiao and others come forward to talk, they are not willing to say a word.
Ling Xiao and others are not just one day, they have approached Jiading, these days Ling Xiao and others are also in a hurry, they have not rested well, physically and mentally tired, this day just arrived in Chengdu, a few people entered the city and saw people coming and going on the street, lively and extraordinary, and look at the walking crowd, but there are more people carrying soldiers and clamps in the aisle, and the looks are quite strange, showing each other a vigilant look, for fear that he has any valuable treasure, being robbed of general, Ling Xiao and others do not know why, they are suspicious.
At this time, it was the time of the meal, a few people walked into an inn, the inn was almost full, some drank and punched, some buried their heads in hard work, and some were talking; look at the dress is also some Jianghu people, the shop companion seems to be used to seeing the faces of all kinds of guests in the past few days, so they are not too polite to Ling Xiao and others, a few people did not care, found a remote secluded place to sit down, ordered a few signature dishes, and ate.
A few people were eating, and there was a discussion at a table not far away, and the content of the conversation attracted the attention of Ling Xiao and others, but if the accent of the speech was not listened to, it was really a little indistinguishable, and only a deep voice said: "I think we came here for nothing this time, how can so many people still have our share."
Another voice sounded: "Let's not travel thousands of miles, rushing here from Longxi, is it difficult to go back."
The previous voice said: "You see it's just a small inn, it's crowded with so many knights, just us..."
Another person smiled and said: "Brother Qian, your real surname is Qian, but you don't have much money, this time it's not also for money, it's almost to the place, you really want to go back, and with the skills of a few of us, we may not go back empty-handed."
Ling Xiao and the others looked at each other a few times when they heard this, and Shi Ying muttered: "It seems that these people are going to that place, I really don't know what kind of treasure it is, and it has attracted people from all over the world."
Ling Xiao made a silent gesture, meaning that they should continue to listen, only to hear a hoarse voice said: "Big brother is right, I heard that the Lingyun Buddha, the Buddha's light shines, the light is colorful and even a hundred feet high, it took three days and three nights before the colorful light gradually dimmed, it is really a rare phenomenon in a thousand years, this is not a strange treasure will be in the world, what else will it be? Not to mention that there are local people, who have already picked up a lot of gold, silver, treasures, pearls, and agate, and they are enough to be rich overnight." Listening to what the man said was vivid, it was as if he had really seen it.
A deep voice said, "That being said, we didn't see it after all, but... We've all been here, and we're going to see it."
The hoarse voice said: "That's right, Brother Qian, we will stay here for one night tonight, and we will leave early tomorrow morning, and if we go late, we will not have our share."
Another person hurriedly echoed: "Brother Wu is right, but you can rest assured that this Buddhist family pays attention to destined people, just for the sake of our poverty, we have to leave some for us, not to mention that I have heard that the focus of this Lingyun Buddha is not on the outside, but on the inside, and this interior is far from being accessible to ordinary people..."
Shi Ying's eyes showed a fine light and smiled: "Childe, it seems that we didn't come in vain" There was a sense of eagerness to try, Tang Xin pouted and looked at Ling Xiao and said: "Look, what I said is right, the thief's heart is still difficult to change."
Shi Ying hurriedly said: "Girl, I don't like to hear you say this, everyone has a share in this baby, how can I become a thief if I don't steal or rob..."
Ling Xiao frowned and waved his hand and said: "Okay, don't talk about it, I don't think this matter is so simple, even if we go, we have to act at the opportunity" Looking at the three brothers of the Shi family: "Don't be carried away by the so-called baby, this matter is not impossible" The three nodded and said "yes", not daring to speak.
Tang Xin made a grimace at Shi Ying, although Shi Ying's teeth itched with hatred, he couldn't say anything after looking at Ling Xiao a few times, he just stared dryly, but there was nothing he could do.
Ling Xiao always had an ominous premonition in his heart, always felt that there were many mysteries revealed in it, the only thing that could be explained was that this matter had a close relationship with the Dongying people, if it wasn't for the chance to hear these news again, they didn't have a clue, fortunately, there is no need to inquire now, but no matter what, since they have already arrived here, they can't give up halfway, they must go to this Lingyun Buddha to see what is going on.
A few people ate about the same, and called the shopkeeper to clean up the dishes and bowls, but they didn't mean to leave, they each poured a cup of tea and drank it, Ling Xiao glanced at a few people beside him, and asked after a while: "Do you know what the origin of this Lingyun Buddha is?"
The Shi brothers looked at each other a few times and shook their heads, Tang Xin suddenly smiled like a peach blossom in spring, and she said leisurely: "I know"
Ling Xiao raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh, then please ask the girl to tell me about it, and let us have a long experience."
Tang Xinzui pouted: "I won't tell you" Ling Xiao rolled his eyes, a little speechless, only to listen to his continued words: "When you see it, you will know, I believe in this Lingyun Buddha." It's enough to open your eyes" Seeing that Tang Xin rarely showed a serious look, several people couldn't help but be very curious.
Ling Xiao summoned his shopkeeper. I wanted a few rooms to stay for one night, but the store partner said that there was no room, and a few people had to go out to find it again, never thought that he still underestimated the attraction of this "exotic treasure" in the world, and asked four or five in a row and the answer was "full".
Shi Ying looked at Ling Xiao's affection, but it was not easy to exert power, and the inn was full of knights from all over the world.
A few people had no choice but to go more remote, and it took the boss's effort to finally find a simple and unusual small inn when the night was hazy, although the store was small, the price was not low, and they had to ask for three medium rooms under Shi Ying's scolding, and several people made do with it for one night.
The next morning, I ate some food casually, and rushed to Jiading in the right direction, which was nearly three hundred miles away, and the mount was not a good horse.
There are really a lot of people in the rivers and lakes he met along the way, and Ling Xiao found that the people he saw, for some reason, in addition to talking to his companions, even if someone deliberately approached, no one was willing to take care of it, just bury his head in the road.
Even saw that there were a lot of people, driving horses and mules to the Lingyun Buddha, which made him stunned, which shows that the attraction of this "strange treasure" is enough to make people dizzy.
Walking with everyone, even if you don't know the way, under their "guidance", when the sun is about to set, you finally see the mysterious Lingyun Buddha.
Several people stand on a small hill, three or four miles away from the Lingyun Buddha, the "Lingyun Buddha" with the vast blue sky above the head and the galloping river at the foot see clearly, Lingxiao holds a pergola and looks at it from afar, and the heart is really shocked, and the "ghostly workmanship" is exclaimed again and again.
