At the end of the Sui Dynasty

The vortex disappeared, and the suction also disappeared, and the surrounding water flow returned to calm. At this moment, Gao Bufan was in a relatively narrow waterway, to be precise, it should be the inside of Longyin Cliff.

It turned out that when Gao Bufan was sucked by the hole just now, he exerted force suddenly with his hands and feet, trying to break free. As a result, the cliff where the force was exerted suddenly collapsed, and the hole that was originally only the size of a football expanded several times in an instant, and Gao Bufan was also slammed immediately. It was sucked in, which is why the rope suddenly tightened.

Gao Bufan was naturally taken aback, because you don't know where this undercurrent will lead to. If you enter the mountainside, the inside suddenly narrows and gets stuck inside, then you will really die.

Fortunately, Gao Bufan still had a life-saving rope on his body, and when he was about to pull the rope and tried his best to escape from the hole, the suction suddenly disappeared, and the surrounding water seemed to stop flowing.

Weird, is this undercurrent intermittent?

Gao Bufan hesitated for a while, and finally let go of the rope on his body, and quickly swam to the depths of the waterway. After swimming about ten meters, he suddenly broke through the water.

This is……?
Gao Bufan looked around in surprise. Although it was very dark here, he could still see it clearly. It was a huge cave. , there is a cave hidden in it, which is most likely where the Buddhist secrets are located.

Gao Bufan took a deep breath and found that although the air here was turbid, he could still breathe. That is to say, the air here was flowing, and there might be other outlets, at least there were vents to communicate with the outside world.

At this moment, the water around him suddenly moved again, pushing Gao Bufan forward, Gao Bufan quickly grabbed the stones on the bank and climbed up the bank, but there was a gurgling sound from the bottom of the cave.

Gao Bufan calmed down, looked around carefully, and found that the cave was quite big, full of stalactites, it seemed to be a natural cave, but at this time, a dangling black shadow on the water surface attracted Gao Bufan's attention, It turned out to be... a boat.

That's right, there is a boat here, and there is a boat in the middle of the mountain. Although it is only a small boat, it is absolutely impossible to come in from the hole outside, because the hole is too small, unless someone drives the boat in and then drives it The hole was re-sealed.

Gao Bufan couldn't help being surprised and delighted, it seemed that he had probably found the right place, and was about to go ahead to investigate, when a person suddenly appeared on the nearby water surface, his white clothes were particularly conspicuous in the dark.

"Miss Bai?" Gao Bufan blurted out.

"Gao Changqing!" Bai Yunshang's voice was a little trembling, obviously mixed with a sense of relieved joy.

A strange feeling arose in Gao Bufan's heart, he stretched out his hand and pulled Bai Yunshang up from the water, and said joyfully, "How did Miss Bai come in?"

Bai Yunshang said: "King Qi has been in the water for so long, and the rope has been untied. Yunshang was worried, so he came down to have a look. Unexpectedly, there is really a cave here."

Gao Bufan's heart warmed, and he said apologetically, "I made Miss Bai worry." However, when he saw Bai Yunshang, who was soaked and her clothes were tightly attached to his body, his heartbeat couldn't help speeding up.

Women's feelings are undoubtedly sensitive, and Bai Yunshang is no exception. She probably sensed the strangeness in someone's eyes, and hastily and subconsciously turned around to face Gao Bufan sideways. The pretty face in the dark seemed annoyed and annoyed .

Gao Bufan sweated and turned around quickly. In fact, it was not the first time he saw it. When Bai Yunshang was seriously injured, it was he who assisted Master Daoxin to perform acupuncture on Bai Niuer. Of course, Bai Niuer was also wearing close-fitting clothing.

"Hey, there is a boat here?" Bai Yunshang let out a little surprise, and said in surprise.

Gao Bufan nodded and said: "The boat probably came in from the hole outside, and then the hole was sealed up again. Over time, the stone that sealed the hole was washed away by the river, so a small hole was exposed."

"But the entrance of this cave is underwater, how did the boat come in?" Bai Yunshang asked puzzled.

Gao Bufan said: "There is only one possibility, that is, the water level was not that deep at that time, probably due to a severe drought, and the water level dropped sharply."

Bai Yunshang nodded and said, "That makes sense."

Gao Bufan smiled and said: "Let's look forward, maybe we can find the secret treasure of your Buddhism." After speaking, he took the lead and walked ahead, which saved Bai Yunshang from the embarrassment of getting wet.

"Hey, there are candles and torches here. I don't know if they can be used." Gao Bufan walked a few steps and found a stone niche on the wall of the cave. There were candles and torches inside. After knocking a few times, the fire was actually lit, and the surrounding area suddenly became bright.

Gao Bufan and Bai Yunshang looked at each other in surprise, but the former's eyes accidentally saw the latter's clothes clinging to the chest. The eye-catching curve almost made Gao unable to look away.

Bai Yunshang blushed, and finally said annoyedly: "Don't look around."

Gao Bufan hastily turned around and continued walking, but the touching scene still lingered in his mind.

The two walked for a while, and Gao Bufan found another stone niche on the wall of the cave, which also contained candles and torches, so Gao Bufan lit the candle again, and when the third stone niche was lit, the cave seemed to have come to an end .

I saw a lake in front of me, and there was a road from the side to the opposite side of the lake. There was a high platform, which seemed to be formed naturally. The high platform was actually full of wooden boxes, probably as many as two or three hundred.

Gao Bufan's heart skipped a beat, Buddhist secret treasure!The secret treasure of Buddhism is indeed here!

Bai Yunshang was also very happy, and walked forward quickly, but at this moment, the water level in the lake suddenly dropped sharply, as if it had plunged thousands of miles, revealing the funnel-shaped bottom of the lake, and the water in the channel rushed into the lake, and soon returned to the lake. The lake was refilled.

Gao Bufan couldn't help suddenly realizing that he finally understood the reason for the formation of the vortex outside. It was obviously related to the lake inside the cave. The funnel-shaped bottom of the lake is probably connected to the outside world. For some unknown reason, the lake level does not leak out at a certain time. However, the lake water suddenly dropped sharply, thus forming a regular vortex, and the vortex drove the air flow, making a sound like a dragon's chant.

The mystery was finally solved, but Gao Bufan was most interested in those boxes at the moment. If half of them were filled with gold and silver treasures, hey, he really got rich this time, and it was so rich that even his mother didn’t recognize it. kind of.

Besides, Gao Bufan and Bai Yunshang went around the lake and came to the high platform over there. Gao Bufan found a stone niche on the stone wall, which also contained candles and flints. He was about to light it, but his movements stopped suddenly.

Bai Yunshang wondered, "What's wrong?"

Gao Bufan lit the candle, and said nonchalantly: "It's nothing, this candle seems a little damp." After speaking, he looked around vigilantly.

The boxes here are stacked neatly, with a thick layer of dust on them, and there are signs of insects and rot. It seems that they have been stacked here for a long time, maybe decades.

Gao Bufan glanced at the ground indifferently, frowned indifferently, stepped forward to open a box, and found that it was full of copper coins, all of which had grown green, he picked up one and looked at it. , It was found that it was indeed a coin from the Northern Zhou Dynasty.

At this time, Bai Yunshang also opened another box, but it was filled with silver ingots. Gao Bufan couldn't help laughing and said: "It seems that Miss Bai's fortune is better than mine, and she got silver as soon as she opened it."

Bai Yunshang was obviously not interested in silver, so he went to check other boxes, and the result was either copper coins or silver, or gold, tsk tsk, Gao Bufan couldn't help but secretly lamented that these monks were really good at making money, no wonder Emperor Zhou Wu was going to destroy Buddha, and according to his elder brother Qiuran According to the guest, there were tens of thousands of Buddhist temples and nearly 2 million monks in the Northern Zhou Dynasty at that time, but the monks did not do production, did not pay taxes and did not serve, which seriously affected the national economy and the people, so it was really unfair to be wiped out. We have to learn a lesson and not allow these religions to grow too much.

At this time, Bai Yunshang opened another box, and finally she looked happy. It turned out that this box did not contain gold, silver and jewelry, but an oiled paper bag. The paper bag was probably filled with books and the like.

Bai Yunshang happily took out a piece of oiled paper bag, and was about to check the plan, when a dark red bug like a centipede suddenly popped out from under the paper bag, biting the back of her hand.

Bai Yunshang didn't care, and threw it on the ground with a flick, and Gao Bufan hurriedly lifted his foot and trampled to death.

"Amituofo, King Qi must not kill at will!" Bai Yunshang recited the Buddha's words.

Gao Bufan reached out and grabbed Bai Yunshang's wrist, and said with concern: "You still don't care about it, quickly see if you have bitten it, this thing might be poisonous."

Bai Yunshang was stunned for a moment, feeling strange in her heart, she didn't move her wrists, but she easily got rid of Gao Bufan's control, and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's not a centipede, it's just an ordinary bug, non-toxic."

A flash of surprise flashed in Gao Bufan's eyes. Although he hadn't deliberately used his strength just now, Bai Yunshang struggled with his hands so easily, which surprised him. Bai Niu'er's kung fu seemed to have improved a lot compared to before.

At this time, Bai Yunshang continued to lower her head to open the oil-paper bag, took out a stack of scriptures from it, and exhaled softly with joy: "Langa Sutra, this is an isolated copy handwritten by an unknown mage, it's great, it's still preserved so well .”

Seeing this, Gao Bufan was also moved and happy for Bai Yunshang, and said with a smile, "Congratulations, Miss Bai, for getting what she wanted."

Bai Yunshang rarely showed a bright smile: "Congratulations to King Qi for getting what he wanted and getting rich overnight!"

Gao Bufan laughed: "We each take what we need, the scriptures belong to you, and the gold, silver and treasure belong to me."

Bai Yunshang smiled and shook her head and said: "King Qi discovered the secret treasure, so everything here will naturally belong to King Qi, but if King Qi is willing to donate the scriptures to Buddhism, that would be great."

Gao Bufan's heart moved, he nodded and said: "It's useless for me to ask for these scriptures, so I ask Miss Bai to donate them to Buddhism."

"Amituofo, goodness, goodness, His Royal Highness King Qi has achieved immeasurable achievements!" Bai Yunshang clasped his palms together and bowed to Gao Bufan.
