The days when I was fishing in Zongwu

Chapter 361 There is no shortage of three incense sticks in front of the Buddha

Wan Wan was stunned and said, "Another place? Isn't it under the Yuema Bridge?"

Chu Qinghe glanced at Houhou and said angrily, "Otherwise, do you think that Duke Yang's treasury will really be built underwater?"

"The Great Sui has existed for 38 years. How much can the terrain of Chang'an change in a few decades? If it is true that Yang Gong's treasury was built under the Yuema Bridge, I am afraid that Yang Su had just built Yang Sui in the morning. The public treasure house, the news spread in the afternoon, can this Yang Gong treasure house still survive to this day?"

After thinking for a while, Wan Wan muttered, "That's true."

At this time, Qu Feiyan asked: "My lord, since that bad guy is so powerful, don't you know the location of Duke Yang's treasure house?"

Chu Qinghe said slowly: "I thought they knew before, but judging from the current situation, the bad people don't know the exact location of Duke Yang's treasure house."

Hearing this, Hou Hou said quietly: "Since you thought that the bad guy in Yang Gong's treasure house might know about it, you still want me to call Master over?"

Chu Qinghe smiled lightly and said, "Even if bad people know about it, it doesn't mean that the things in Duke Yang's treasury have been removed by bad people, and they won't return without success."

After hearing these words, Wan Wan looked sideways and said, "You mean that even if the bad handsome guy knows about this Duke Yang's treasure house, he won't be interested in this Duke Yang's treasure house?"

"Not bad!" Chu Qinghe responded slowly and said, "The bad guy has been hiding for too long before, judging from the strength of that bad guy, he can produce eight warriors who have condensed fake alchemy. The time was at least before the founding of the Sui Dynasty."

"Hiding behind the scenes for such a long time is enough to show that the bad handsome is unwilling to let the bad people be exposed in the open."

"And this Chang'an city was used as an important place even in the Sui Dynasty, and now it is the capital of Li and Tang. Various forces in the city are entrenched. Once bad people try to take out the things in the Yang Gong's treasure house, they will definitely be taken by other people. Knowing that there is another powerful force in this world that they don't know about, all the forces in the Tang Dynasty will be more careful in their actions."

"For Bad Shuai, this is definitely not what he wants to see."

"Secondly, with the strength of a bad guy, fame, power and even money are just as easy for him to get. Even with the strength of a bad guy before, it's too easy to get rich."

"From Bai Wanshan's words, this bad person intends to set off a war among the five kingdoms, and the confrontation between the four great powers in the Tang Dynasty has faintly reached a balance. Duke Yang's treasury as bait."

"It only needs to be operated a little bit, and this Duke Yang's treasure house is packaged. It is said that there are not only rare treasures, a treasure house that is incomparably rich, but also some heaven-level martial arts and pills that allow warriors to directly break through. They are the four great powers of the Great Tang, and almost all forces, large and small, will try their best to compete for this Duke Yang's treasure house."

"At that time, if the operation is good, even if the matter of Yang Gong's treasure house is over, the forces in the Tang Dynasty that were originally well watered will likely become sworn enemies, and the Tang Dynasty will be in chaos."

After listening to Chu Qinghe's remarks, Hou Hou just didn't speak.

After a few breaths, Wan Hou just said: "Where did you prove that this bad person didn't know the location of Duke Yang's treasure house before?"

Looking at the turbulent river under the Yuema Bridge, Chu Qinghe said casually: "For such a long time, it is impossible for the three eyeliners who are staring at us not to notice each other, but up to now, none of those eyeliners have fought with each other. It can be said that these three eyeliners were not hostile before, and they are still in Chang'an now, the identities of these three eyeliners are no different from Li Tang, Cihang Jingzhai and bad people."

"Before, I killed eight unscrupulous and handsome warriors in succession. If the unscrupulous people knew the location of Duke Yang's treasure house before, after learning that the purpose of our trip to Chang'an this time is Duke Yang's treasure house, why do we need to be in your Yinkui sect?" Surveillance outside the stronghold, I am afraid that they have already entered Yang Gong's treasury to ambush."

After understanding the reason why Chu Qinghe came to the conclusion, Houhou and even the women on the side looked stunned.

After pondering for a moment, Wan Hou said quietly: "It's a good thing that bad guy is not as insidious as you, otherwise we would be in trouble."

Not to mention Chu Qinghe's analysis of the bad handsome, just now Chu Qinghe came up with the idea of ​​using Yang Gong's treasure house to make a layout, in Wanhou's opinion.

If we really do what Chu Qinghe said, the situation will really be like what Chu Qinghe said, and the Tang Dynasty will fall into chaos.

The most important thing is that these things seem to be just what Chu Qinghe said casually.

The mind and the city government revealed here make people feel shuddering.

The strength of the bad guy and the bad guy lies in their respective strengths and hiding in the dark.

But Chu Qinghe's strength lies in his calculations.

And there may be a way to deal with the powerful, the worst is to hide and hide in the dark.

Only this kind of invisible calculation is the most difficult existence to resist.

Different from Wan Wan, Dongfang Bubai and his daughters have already experienced Chu Qinghe's mentality.

It was no surprise that Chu Qinghe was able to analyze the situation so easily now.

It's just that while the thoughts were flowing, the women of Dongfang Bubai secretly felt a pity.

With the cleverness of the girls and their understanding of Chu Qinghe, it is certain that if the method Chu Qinghe just said is followed, once the four major clans and other forces in the Tang Dynasty are attracted through the Yang Gong's treasure house, then they will be able to use it as their own. The Great Yuan Kingdom's method of dealing with the Great Song Kingdom's martial arts has brought all the forces in the Great Tang Dynasty into one pot.

At that time, Datang Kingdom will also be able to take advantage of the trend.

Thinking, Dongfang Bubai glanced at Xue Qianxun, while Yaoyue looked at Lianxing.

But after a few breaths, both women shook their heads and suppressed their thoughts.

Afterwards, Lian Xing looked at Chu Qinghe and asked, "Since this Yuema Bridge is not the entrance to Duke Yang's treasure house, where is the real entrance?"

Regarding Lian Xing's question, Chu Qinghe shook his head and said, "It's meaningless to say it's too early now, and it will be clear after the people from the Yinkui Sect arrive in two days."

After finishing speaking, Chu Qinghe said, "Okay, let's continue shopping!"

The sound came out, and Chu Qinghe walked towards the other end of the Yuema Bridge while shaking his folding fan.

Seeing this, the rest of the girls followed slowly.

While walking, Hou Hou suddenly came up and asked, "By the way, did you know that after I passed this news to Master, the news would leak out?"

Chu Qinghe responded while looking at the surrounding scenery: "You are also aware of the bad person's situation. It is not difficult to plant eyeliner in your Yinkui faction or even other forces in the Tang Dynasty. Naturally, it is reasonable for the news to leak out." middle."

Wan Wan continued: "So all of this has long been within your expectations."

Chu Qinghe nodded truthfully.

Seeing this, Hou Hou said with a somewhat depressed tone: "Then you didn't say it before?"

But just as this question was uttered, before Chu Qinghe could respond, Hou Hou sighed.

In fact, there is no need for Chu Qinghe to say it, and Houhou also knows why Chu Qinghe didn't tell himself at that time.

Up to now, Houhou is not sure if there are any other forces in the stronghold of the Yinkui faction in Shangdang County. If the traitor leaks out, it will make Chu Qinghe's plan come to nothing.

At this time, Chu Qinghe suddenly said: "When Queen Yin comes over, I just need to bring some people who have doubts into Yang Gong's treasury."

These words caught my ears, and Wan Hou said while thinking about it: "You mean you want to help me take advantage of the situation and get rid of the mole in the Yinkui faction?"

Chu Qinghe said slowly: "This incident itself is what I did against that bad handsome, and the content of the transaction is just to ask your Yinkui faction to help move and transport the things in Yanggong's treasury. If you let your Yinkui faction There is a loss of personnel, but I am a little embarrassed to take [-]%."

Hearing this, Wan Wan glanced at Chu Qinghedao: "You've thought everything through."

Chu Qinghe said casually: "People cannot be established without trust, and businesses cannot be rich without trust. Since it is cooperation, it is natural to think carefully."

The voice came to his ears, and Wan Wan curled his lips, but after learning about the layout of Chu Qinghe, Wan Wan was also relieved a lot about the next thing.

As for whether Chu Qinghe would secretly have any schemes against the Yinkui faction.

If Chu Qinghe really wanted to, the Yinkui Sect really didn't have the qualifications to make Chu Qinghe think so much.

The advantage of the open-book exam is that it can reduce the worry about the unknown.

It has to be said that Chu Qinghe's behavior made people feel inexplicably at ease.

For a while, Wan Hou suddenly understood why Dongfang Bubai and Yaoyue and the girls believed in Chu Qinghe so much.

Relying on Chu Qinghe's mind and strength, following Chu Qinghe's side, it is indeed easy for people to feel at ease.

Afterwards, under the conscious guidance of Chu Qinghe, the few people walked around to Zhaoguo Square in the southeast direction of Chang'an City.

Slowly raising his head, looking at the plaque hanging on the stone temple in front, the words "Wulou Temple" also fell into the eyes of several people.

But unlike other places in Chang'an that were full of people, the area around Wulou Temple was elegant and peaceful, with very few pedestrians around.

Looking at the Wulou Temple in the distance, Lin Shiyin said, "Although this Chang'an City is the capital of Li Tang, there are so many temples in the city? Along the way, including the Wulou Temple in front of us, we have already seen five temples in total. Buddhist temple."

Hou Hou said: "Cihang Jingzhai belongs to the leader of the Buddhist sect in the Tang Dynasty. When Li Tang was able to solve the Sui Kingdom and replace it, Cihang Jingzhai and even the Buddhist sects in the Tang Dynasty contributed a lot. .”

"Naturally, the alliance between the Li family and Cihang Jingzhai is equivalent to the alliance with Buddhism. In the past few years, many temples have been built almost throughout the Tang Dynasty, and there have been many more monks. Especially in Li Tang’s sphere of influence has the most new temples.”

Listening to what Houhou said, the women also thought about what they saw along the way after entering the Great Tang Kingdom. There are indeed many temples.

Even compared to the Great Song Dynasty, it is not much better.

Afterwards, Houhou continued: "And this Wulou Temple is quite famous in Chang'an City, it has a history of nearly a hundred years, but in the past ten years or so there have been rumors that this Wulou Temple is not clean, and there are ghosts in the rumors." Because of this, there are far fewer pilgrims than other temples in Chang'an City."

Xiao Zhao asked suspiciously, "Then Cihang Jingzhai doesn't care about this place?"

Wan Wan said, "I don't know. I've only heard about the situation in Wulou Temple. Where would I think about it?"

Chu Qinghe opened his mouth and said: "Anyway, I came here anyway, this temple is considered clean, so let's go in and have a stroll!"

When these words came out, Hou Hou curled her lips and said, "What's there to do? They're just a bunch of hypocritical bald donkeys."

Let's talk about it, but Houhou still followed Chu Qinghe and the others towards the Wulou Temple.

When they stepped into the temple, the women immediately smelled the scent of sandalwood.

But after entering the temple, this Wulou Temple did not have monks to greet him immediately like other temples.

As far as I could see, there was no one there.

If it weren't for the fact that Wulou Temple was still relatively clean, and the sound of beating wooden fish and chanting sutras could be clearly heard in the ears of several people.

Thinking of what Houhou said just now, combined with the voice in the ear, people unconsciously think of things like "salvation of dead souls".

But when several people entered the front yard of the temple, the spiritual energy in Chu Qinghe's brows slowly dissipated.

After a few breaths, as if he had sensed something, the corner of Chu Qinghe's mouth suddenly curved up, then his mental energy converged, and he turned his attention to the area around the temple.

A moment later, as several people stepped across the front yard of the temple and entered the inner temple, they saw a solemn and dignified old monk wearing a white monk robe sitting under the Buddha statue in a Buddhist hall.

The sounds of beating wooden fish and chanting scriptures just now were made by this old monk.

Almost at the same time when Chu Qinghe and the others noticed the old monk, the old monk stopped chanting and slowly opened his eyes to look at Chu Qinghe and the others.

After putting down the things in his hands, the old monk stood up and walked to the door of the hall.

When Chu Qinghe and the others came to the entrance of the Buddhist hall, the old monk clasped his hands together and said in a slightly respectful voice: "Amitabha, the poor monk has seen some benefactors."

However, just when Houhou's eyes were on the old monk, his body froze for a moment, but he returned to normal in an instant.

However, at such a close distance, how could Houhou's body's reaction be hidden from Chu Qinghe and Dongfang Bubai?

But even when they sensed the strangeness of Houhou, Chu Qinghe and Dongfang Bubai didn't show any expressions.

Even Chu Qinghe took the initiative to respond with a smile: "I am in Zhao Shanhe, and I have met the master."

The old monk nodded and said: "There have been very few pilgrims in this Wulou Temple in recent years. The poor monk did not expect that there will be pilgrims coming to the gate today. I am disappointed to welcome you. I hope that a few benefactors will not be blamed."

Chu Qinghe shook his head and said: "Since there are few people, it must be that the next few people disturbed the master's cleanliness. Why should the master apologize?"

The old monk showed kindness and said: "Young masters, please come in."

After a while, following Chu Qinghe and others walked to the Buddha statue in the hall, the old monk took some incense from the altar table and put it on the candle. After the incense was lit, the old monk handed three of them to Chu Qinghe. .

Facing Xiang in front of him, Chu Qinghe did not refuse, but passed it with a smile.

Seeing this, the other women also took the incense offered by the old monk one after another.

After the three more incense sticks appeared in the hands of the women, Chu Qinghe stepped forward and directly inserted the incense into the incense burner on the altar.

Taking Chu Qinghe's behavior into his eyes, the old monk slowly shook his head and said, "Since the almsgiver is offering incense, why not be a little more pious instead of being perfunctory like now?"

Hearing this, Chu Qinghe looked at the old monk and said, "If you're not devout, wouldn't this incense count?"

Hearing Chu Qinghe's question, the old monk clasped his hands together and said, "Although you can count, it's hard to be sincere and clever."

Chu Qinghe opened his mouth and said: "There is no shortage of three sticks of incense in front of the Buddha. There are so many worries in life. If you can light high incense to worship the gods, it is hard to get rid of your mind just for peace, but there is neither hatred nor injustice in my heart. The fragrance of incense is nothing more than fragrance and has no long-cherished wishes, it is just the mind, since there is no desire, why do we need spirit?"

The old monk's eyes flashed brightly and said: "But I never thought that the benefactor is so open-minded."

Chu Qinghe smiled lightly, then stood quietly aside.

After the other women listened to what Chu Qinghe and the old monk had said, they followed Chu Qinghe's example and stepped forward one after another to insert the incense in their hands into the incense burner.

Especially Houhou, her posture is even more loose.

After asking Xiao Zhao to take out an ingot of one tael of gold and stuff it into the merit box, Chu Qinghe looked at the old monk and said, "I wonder if this temple is available for visit, Master?"

The old monk clasped his hands together and said, "Since the benefactor has nothing to ask for, please let him know everything."

After finishing speaking, the old monk recited the Buddha's name and then sat back down again and continued to knock on the wooden fish and recite the scriptures.

"interesting."

After smiling lightly in his heart, Chu Qinghe took the girls for a walk around the Wulou Temple.

However, no one noticed that in the process of strolling along the Chuqing River, a tiny, inaudible insect flew out and walked through the Wulou Temple.

Not long after, in Chu Qinghe's perception, the mother worm that devoured the Yuanzimu Glazed Gu in Chu Qinghe's hand suddenly trembled, and emitted obvious warmth.

"Is it really there?"

After feeling the situation in his palm, Chu Qinghe controlled Zi Chong to fly back silently with a thought.

Not long after, several people came out of Wulou Temple slowly.

But before leaving, Wan Hou unconsciously glanced at the old monk sitting cross-legged under the Buddha statue and reciting scriptures before leaving with Chu Qinghe and the others.

After walking nearly a hundred feet away, Yin Ji, the jellyfish, first glanced at the eyeliners who were still following in the distance from the corner of her eye, then turned to look at Houhou and asked, "Miss Wanhou, do you know that old monk just now?"

Facing the question from Yin Ji, the jellyfish, Wan Hou nodded and said, "The old monk just now is one of the four great holy monks in the Tang Dynasty."

Hearing what Houhou said, the girls frowned slightly.

In the Tang Dynasty, Buddhism prevailed.

Apart from Cihang Jingzhai, there are naturally other Buddhist forces in Datang.

Among them, the most famous Buddhist disciples are the four holy monks whose cultivation base has entered the realm of heaven and man.
