Chapter 3 Ancient Temples and Underground Palaces, Secret Maps and Hidden Mysteries (1)

Shen Deyi knew that there was no win or loss in the contest between the police department and the Yashan faction, and that both sides were defeated, and the green buildings and liquor stores of the Yashan faction were sealed down for a while, and two people were arrested by the police department and fined silver, which damaged face; however, the archives and prisons of the police department were set on fire, and the key criminals who were arrested were easily rescued, and there was no face, and the "Dragon and Tiger Gang" below The person was beaten very badly, and there were only two gains that could only comfort him, one was that the master of ceremonies, Zhang Gonggong, came to beg him and owed him a favor, and the other was that he knew the secret of the underground palace of Jing'an Temple from Li Shulan's mouth.

Shen Deyi pondered: "We can no longer be entangled in the contradiction with the Yashan faction, we must continue to implement the plan to explore the secret books, this is the important thing, since we know the secret of the underground palace of Jing'an Temple, we should send people to investigate, and we can't let people get the first step." ”

Shen Deyi arrived at the police department and asked Young Eunuch Li to call Peng Haoze and Sun Weitao.

"Deputy Commander Peng, has your body recovered? Although the result of punishing the Yashan faction this time was not as good as expected, it also gave Zhou Bagua a hard lesson, so that he would respect the police department in the future, now, we can't bother too much to deal with him, or do the right thing, last time you made a meritorious service and found out about the underground palace of Jing'an Temple, you should seize the opportunity to actively investigate. Shen Deyi said.

"Thank you Gonggong Shen for your concern, my body is already well, and I will obey my father-in-law's orders!" Peng Haoze said.

"Didn't the little woman who ran away last time tell you about the underground palace of Jing'an Temple? You know this matter best, you take Sun Weitao to explore Jing'an Temple, and you must try your best to enter the underground palace and explore the secrets inside. This matter is very important, if you need any support, let Young Eunuch Li help you, you can only succeed, you can't fail, and you will set off tomorrow!"

"Yes, we will leave tomorrow and we will do things well!" Peng Haoze and Sun Weitao said at the same time.

Since the last time Li Shulan and Murong Yun visited the underground palace of Jing'an Temple, Jing'an Temple has been relatively calm, and pilgrims come to burn incense and worship the Buddha normally. Nothing happened to the dungeon again. Abbot Xiude has been paying attention to the underground palace, but no one has come to disturb it, he goes to the courtyard every day to see, to the Daxiong Treasure Hall to have a look. Ritual Buddha worship. Sometimes I also go to the back pavilion to take a walk. The monks of Xiude abide by the rule of "not eating at noon", and at night, the monks of Xiude have the habit of drinking Zen tea. After finishing the day in the temple, he returned to the meditation room, slowly and methodically according to the procedure of Zen tea to drink tea, unless it was a critical matter, otherwise, every night, Xiude was very happy to enjoy the ceremony of tasting Zen tea, he very seriously according to the rules of the tea ceremony to taste tea, enjoy it.

The incense of Jing'an Temple is very prosperous, and there is an endless stream of people who burn incense and worship the Buddha every day, and the temple is very normal, of course, the abbot of Xiude has not dared to relax his vigilance.

Today, two people dressed as wealthy merchants came, they were very pious, starting from the palace of the king of heaven, incense was lit everywhere, respectfully worshipping the Buddha, Xiude saw them approaching the door of the hall in the hall of the great majesty, so he greeted them and said: "Welcome two donors, this is the first time to come, right?

"Thank you, Master, who are you?" asked the slightly older wealthy merchant.

"Lao Qu is the abbot of this temple, I wish you two good luck!" Xiude said, since the invasion of the underground palace of Jing'an Temple, he has been very careful to pay attention to visitors, often greeting strange pilgrims so that he can observe them carefully.

"Thank you, abbot, we are the second time to come to your temple, five years ago I came to worship the Buddha, at that time I made a wish, if the business can be prosperous, I will come to worship the Buddha and make a vow, three years to the Buddha blessed, business is smooth, I came to burn incense to worship the Buddha, there are twenty taels of silver here, not a tribute, to add some incense to your temple!" said the rich businessman.

"Thank you, donor, I wish the donor a prosperous business!" Xiude said.

"Abbot Xiude, we have a request, if it is convenient, I implore the master to send a master in the temple to lead us to burn incense everywhere, and also introduce, your temple is famous, the last time I came, I couldn't take a closer look, this time I really want to have a good tour, to worship the Buddha everywhere in the temple, I don't want to miss any place, I implore the abbot to help!"

"Don't worry, the old man asked the senior brother Jingkong to lead you to all parts of the temple to see, the donor is so pious, the old man admires!" After Xiude said, let the little monk call Jingkong and let him take the two donors to visit everywhere.

Under the guidance of Jingkong, the two merchants went to the Luohan Hall, the Scripture Pavilion, the Three Temples and other places to visit, and burned incense to worship the Buddha, and finally, Jingkong led the two to the Tallinn in the back mountain.

And when the three of them were looking around, there was always a mysterious person following not far behind.

The two wealthy businessmen looked at Tallinn very carefully, and burned incense in front of several large pagodas, and the old rich businessman said to the meditation: "Master, I heard that the sleeping monks in these towers are some high monks, all of them used to be living people, and those Buddha statues in the temple are different, I have always had an idea, not necessarily right, I always feel that these high monks sleeping in the tower are more intimate with our living people, so I often burn incense very seriously to pay tribute to them, and they will definitely bless us!"

"Amitabha! People are in the chaotic world on this shore, and the Buddha is in the quiet world on the other side, whether it is a monk or a Buddha who has passed away, they have all reached the state of liberation, they are not born and do not die, their merits are complete, their karma is completely destroyed, they are in the realm of Nirvana, the donor sincerely worships the Buddha, and they need to meditate and cultivate, and they do not need to distinguish between monks and Buddhas, and there is a Buddha in their hearts, so that they can experience a constant, happy, comfortable, and pure state of mind, everything is empty, and the Buddha is in the heart. The retreat replied.

"Thank you for the monk's advice, I don't understand Buddhism, I'm really ugly, ashamed, ashamed!" said the rich businessman.

"The donor is sincere and sincere, only sincerity can be quiet, and piety can be blessed by the Buddha!" Jingkong said.

"Master, why are these towers high and low? Please introduce the monk!" the rich merchant asked, walked to the highest tower and looked carefully, he saw a stone ball under the Rui Beast relief Pixiu, and he knew that the keyhole of the underground palace was under this stone ball.

The question asked by the wealthy merchant is not easy to answer for Jingkong, since it is a qiē empty, but the size of the monk is different, but after the death of the monk, he "lived" in a different tower.

Jingkong had no choice but to reply: "Time and space flow, people and things have their own fate, the tower is big and the tower is small, it is also fate, there is a Buddha in the heart, the stone is not a stone, the tower is not a tower, the quiet state of mind is the most important." ”

The purpose of the two wealthy merchants to observe the stone pagoda has been achieved, and they bid farewell to Xiude and Jingkong and leave Jing'an Temple.

The mysterious stalker then left Jing'an Temple.

Two days later, in the day, a member of the capital went to Jing'an Temple, after worshipping the Buddha, to the guest hall, he asked the little monk to invite the abbot of Xiude, saying that there was something to discuss with Xiude.

After a while, Xiude arrived, and the staff stood up respectfully and said, "Excuse me the master, I ask the master for help in the next matter, and I also ask the master to support him no matter what!"

"If the donor has something, please say, the old man who can help will definitely help, please don't be polite!" Xiude said.

The staff said: "My father passed away, tomorrow is the first seven, my father has a last wish before his death, and he must ask Master Xiude to recite the scriptures for a few hours, this is thirty taels of silver, add incense to the temple, the master must help, please!"

Xiude hurriedly helped the staff up and said: "Don't be polite, since Ling Zun has a will, the old man will promise to go to your mansion to recite the scriptures for three hours, please rest assured!"

"Thank you, Abbot Xiude! This is great! Let the sedan chair in the house pick you up at sunset tomorrow night! Farewell!" said the staff member happily.

The next night, after Xiude explained that Jingkong and Jingxiu were optimistic about the temple, he got on the sedan chair sent by the Yuanwaifu on time and went to the Yuanwaifu to recite the scriptures for his father, who passed away.

After Xiude went out, the two rich businessmen went to Jing'an Temple again, they still went to the temple to burn incense and worship the Buddha, until dusk, the pilgrims in the temple were basically dispersed, and most of the monks rested, the two rich businessmen sneaked into Xiude's meditation room, searched in detail, they wanted to find a special key, but did not find it, so they walked out of the meditation room and rushed to Tallinn.

At this time, a voice came from behind Tallinn: "The two rich businessmen are not good at business, they have been sneaking around in Jing'an Temple for the past two days, detectives everywhere, sneaking into the meditation room late at night, and now they are in Tallinn again, what do you want to do?

The two wealthy businessmen were taken aback, and when they looked back, they saw a black-clothed masked man standing outside Zhangyu, and the old rich businessman thought: "It turns out that this person has been following us since we entered the temple, and we didn't even notice it, it seems that it is not so easy to deal with!"

"Who are you, dare to follow us, say your name quickly, leave as soon as you are interested, and don't meddle with your business!" said the old rich merchant.

The masked man said, "It seems that Gonggong Shen has not educated you well, and he is so rude!"

It turned out that the two wealthy businessmen were dressed up by Peng Haoze and Sun Weitao of the Police Department, and at this time the masked man saw through his identity, and he was stunned: "Who is he, he knows our identity, and we don't know anything about him, so we are passive." ”

"Now that you know who we are, don't meddle with it, please leave, don't affect our business!" Peng Haoze said.

"It's Deputy Commander Peng, right?Why are you still in such a hurry, you haven't told me what I'm doing here, why should I leave?" said the masked man.

Peng Haoze was stunned again: "How could he know my name? Strange! Who is he? He is probably the king and Xie Liu, who are here to protect Jing'an Temple, and he is Xiude's assistant, and Jing'an Temple is weak, so he pretended to make a noise and simply tried his best to make a move!" He shouted: "Sun Zhenfu, do it!"

Peng Haoze and Sun Weitao attacked together, one raised his hands, quickly turned his palms into claws, and grabbed the masked man's shoulders fiercely, and the other raised his right leg and kicked at the masked man's chest. (To be continued......)
