Chapter 524 This is actually a small camp!

Xingchan Temple is a thousand-year-old temple. It is said that it can be traced up to the Tang Dynasty in China.

It is said that the monk who established the Juchan Temple once went to the White Horse Temple of the Tang Dynasty to study Buddhism. Later, after returning to Japan, he continued to practice in a certain big temple. When he was 70 years old, he came to Xingchan Temple and built a small temple. Practice.

This small temple was the predecessor of Xingchan Temple.

Since the establishment of Xingchan Temple, it has been closely related to Zen Buddhism in China. Every few decades or hundreds of years, monks come to China to learn Buddhism and exchange.

Officially speaking, this Xingchan Temple actually has a good relationship with Huaxia.Over the years, there have been many exchanges with some monasteries in China, and monks from China have come here to teach Buddhism and study.

When Zhu Yu and Ran Jie came up to Xingchan Temple quietly, they found that although it was already late, Xingchan Temple was not quiet, and it could even be said to be quite lively.

"Boss, is there something wrong with Xingchan Temple? It's already midnight, what are you doing? It's so lively?"

Although the gate of Xingchan Temple has been closed, the candles in each main hall are lit. There are monks coming and going in and out of one of the main halls, and they don't know what they are doing.

The hearing of the two people is better than that of ordinary people. At this time, they can still hear the monks singing in the hall. I don't know what kind of ceremony they are doing.

"Boss, do you want to go over and have a look?" Ran Jie who had climbed over the wall asked Zhu Yu.

"Touch and have a look." Zhu Yu looked around.Fortunately, except for the main hall, other places are considered quiet.Although there are candles in front of the Buddha statues in the side hall, but without the monks, they had little influence in the past.

The two quietly touched it, and stopped at a distance of more than [-] meters from the main hall - there are bushes here, and the two of them are more than enough to hide.

Zhu Yu opened his eyes and looked into the hall.It was found that monks wearing cassocks of various colors sat cross-legged in the main hall and chanted scriptures, and in front of the statue of Tathagata Buddha in the main hall, there was something wrapped in yellow cloth.

The eyes of the sky saw through the yellow cloth, and there were eight small porcelain jars inside, and the ashes were in full bloom in the porcelain jars!

Could it be the ashes of those seven war criminals?
Shouldn't it be seven?How could it be eight?

Zhu Yu was a little confused, what does this mean?
"Boss, do you want to find a chance to sneak in?" Ran Jie asked quietly.

"No, let's go to the back and have a look!" Zhu Yu shook his head, he had already confirmed that this place has absolutely inseparable relationship with Xingya Guanyin Temple!
"Boss, why did we come here?" The two of them walked towards the backyard, and Ran Jie asked quietly, seeing that no one was around.

"Because it was mentioned in the report I saw earlier," Zhu Yu explained in a low voice, "This Xingya Guanyin Temple was actually established with the support of a certain monk from Xingchan Temple.

Although Xingchan Temple later announced that the monk had been cancelled, and had nothing to do with Xingchan Temple, this was not the case.Xingchan Temple still has contacts with some people and that monk.

Even after the monk had passed away, his disciple presided over the Xingya Guanyin Temple, and had secret contacts with Xingchan Temple. "

"It turned out to be like this!" Ran Jie suddenly realized, "That is to say, this Xingchan Temple has a close relationship with our Chinese Buddhists, but in fact it is doing shady things!"

"At least that's what it said in that report." Zhu Yu said, "So we have to investigate—after Xingya Guanyin Temple disappears, this is the place that is most likely to accept these people."

Zhu Yu is preconceived, and already knows some information, so he will observe more carefully, and with targeted observation, coupled with the eye of the sky, he will naturally be able to discover more information.

If Ran Jie hadn't proposed two people to come here to scout here at night before the break because of Zhu Yu, and with Zhu Yu's explanation just now, it would be difficult to find any problems.

After all, the reputation of Xingchan Temple is there, and the fact that it is closely connected with Huaxia also exists, so it is difficult to be doubted.

This is a question of mental inertia.

The two quietly passed the partition wall between the front yard and the backyard, and entered the backyard. They found that the space here is actually much larger than the front yard, and the various buildings are much denser.

The Buddhist hall built in the front yard is relatively regular, following the style of Huaxia, the main hall is built on the central axis, and the two sides are biased, which is very symmetrical.

The buildings built in this backyard are relatively compact.

Both of them don't know Japanese, and they don't know much about the writing on the building. If there are Chinese characters mixed in, they can barely guess it. The master "Mitarai" is actually a toilet?
Fortunately, Zhu Yu has the eyes of the sky, so he can roughly guess where it is by scanning it.

For example, the most compact sleeping place for monks, the Datong Shop, has very simple furnishings—to the point of rudimentary simplicity.

Then there is the kitchen and the dining room, which also look very old. Looking at these facilities here, it feels like the modern society has been isolated. Except for the wires and lights, basically there are no items related to the modern society.

There is nothing to look at in the sundry store, such as cleaning tools, spare supplies on the bed, kitchen facilities, spare tables and chairs, incense candles and so on.

The miscellaneous storage is very large, and only half of the contents are in full bloom. It can be seen that a lot of things are consumed in it every day.

These three buildings occupy one-third of the backyard.

Although the number of ordinary monks is the largest, the area they live in is not large. On the contrary, the places where monks with positions live are similar to double rooms, single rooms, suites, and finally a small building for one person. .

Although it is a two-story building, it can also show the identity of its owner.

Zhu Yu guessed that the person was either the host or the supervisor, otherwise it would be impossible to live in such a high-end place.

The two of them took a look at the places where these people lived, and Zhu Yu could tell that the more you went to the high-end residences, the more you could see some ancient relics—there were rare books of ancient paper Buddhist scriptures, bronze Buddha statues from the Yuan and Song Dynasties, and walls Hanging on it is a picture of worshiping Buddha in the Ming and Qing Dynasties...

What attracted Zhu Yu's attention the most was that in the small two-story building, a suet jade Buddha was enshrined in a small hall on the second floor, forty centimeters high, sitting Buddha.The eyes of the sky can see that this Buddha statue should be from Tang Dynasty!

This is awesome!
Things from the Tang Dynasty, even the three-colored ones unearthed from tombs, are very precious.

This jade Buddha statue is not only old, but the quality of the jade is also top-notch, and Zhu Yu can tell that this jade Buddha has been enshrined by countless people, and the light of faith on it is simply too dazzling!
To Zhu Yu's surprise, the person living on the second floor was actually an eminent monk. Looking at his whole body with the eyes of the sky, at least he had full Buddha nature, not the kind of philistine commercial monk.

Did you guess wrong?
If Xingchan Temple and Xingya Guanyin Temple are really related, it is impossible for the high-level officials not to know.

So, how could this eminent monk be so "clean"?
Zhu Yu looked at the other monks with doubts.

Ran Jie didn't understand why Zhu Yu was walking back and forth here.

But the boss is as good as the boss, he just needs to execute it.So when Zhu Yu retreated to another small building, his attention was all on the surrounding environment, as long as there was any movement, he would be able to observe it.

When Zhu Yu came to the second small building, he found that the area inside was obviously not as large as that of the previous small building.

There are two small buildings like this, both of which are single-family homes, Zhu Yu randomly looked at one of them.

He found that although the size of the yard is not large, the decoration style is very modern. The air conditioner, TV, computer and other electrical appliances are all available on the first floor.

The second floor is a bit nondescript. There are many ancient Buddha statues and Buddhist ritual utensils in the small hall; the front seat is a Buddha statue decorated with colored lights, but the Buddha statue is half a meter high. Gold bronze statue.

Even the great monk lived in an ancient mahogany Zen bed, but beside the bed was an eye protection lamp.

The monk sleeping on the Zen bed looked kindly, with a big belly, and looked like a Buddha, but with the eyes of the sky, he was really not an eminent monk, but similar to those profiteers!

There is indeed a problem here!
Zhu Yu breathed a sigh of relief, at least for now, there is still something to investigate.

Ran Jie watched Zhu Yu outside the small courtyard for a while, then went to other places.

Looking at such yards one by one, one moment frowned, the other moment gritted one's teeth, and the next moment was a little happy, it was really incomprehensible.

Finally, after leaving the place where these people lived, Ran Jie couldn't help asking in a low voice:
"Boss, this is the end of reading? What can you see?"

When Zhu Yu heard Ran Jie's question, he knew that Ran Jie had noticed the problem, and secretly scolded himself for being careless, and immediately explained:

"It's over. Don't look at me just looking at the building. In fact, that's it, and I can see the specific things."

Thinking about it in his mind, he barely justified his actions:

"For example, in the few single-family courtyards we have seen before, we can tell whether the monks at the top here are real practitioners by seeing how many wires come in and out.

Do you remember that the most upscale small building has nothing outside except a wire.It seems that only electric lights are used.But the ones in the back not only have wires, but also air conditioners, and network cables and so on.

Then these monks must have practiced less purely.Then there must be something wrong with this backyard.At least those monks are not so pure.This is inconsistent with the reputation of Xingchan Temple as a Buddhist holy place.

Now we can't scare the snake away, since we have doubts, let's look elsewhere—although there is nothing in the sundries store, I think there must be problems with some of the remaining buildings.

Do you remember how we found those treasures in the abandoned temple in Ah San's jungle? "

"Tallinn?" Ran Jie's eyes lit up!
"That's right." Zhu Yu said with a smile, "Not only the Tallinn, but also places like the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion must be checked."

The two sneaked into Tallinn quietly.Zhu Yu was surprised to find that there were actually several monks guarding the Tallinn.

The entire backyard is actually patrolled by monks, but Tallinn sent two people to watch it, which is a bit interesting.

Zhu Yu and Ran Jie looked at each other, and they both felt that they had come to the right place.

However, these two people were very vigilant, and they still walked around the Tallinn from time to time, without the slightest slack.

"Boss, should I lure them away?" Ran Jie came up with an idea, "Then you go in and have a look?"

"No need." Zhu Yu shook his head and said:

"Since we got the inspiration from Ah San's temple, let's use the method there."

As he spoke, he took out a small bag from his pocket, shook it in front of Ran Jie, and said:
"Although I didn't learn it very well, at least I should be able to fascinate these two people!"

Zhu Yu looked up, found Shanglifeng, then untied the bag, grabbed a handful of the powder of that kind of flower and threw it up.

Ran Jie immediately held his breath, and then heard Zhu Yu start to speak in a rather confusing voice.

The two monks first smelled the smell, and were a little puzzled. They were looking for the source of the scent, and then they heard Ruo Ruo Wu's voice, and before they could react, they fell down in a daze.

Zhu Yu read a few more words, and seeing that the two of them really didn't respond, he stopped and gestured "OK" to Ran Jie.

Ran Jie returned a thumbs up, and then the two of them groped into Tallinn.

The tower forest is not too big, there are street lamps inside, Zhu Yu opened his eyes and looked over one by one.

He even saw a relic!
The earlier the stone tower, the greater the chance of producing relics.

As the time went by, the stone pagoda became more and more luxurious, but the chances of producing relics became smaller, and in the end, there were almost none.

Like the one with seven colored relics in the stone pagoda at the beginning, that kind is even more impossible.

What surprised Zhu Yu was that he had seen all the stone pagodas, but he didn't find anything unusual!
He didn't give up, his eyes were full of energy, and he looked again carefully, but he still couldn't see anything.

Ran Jie was also observing carefully, and even stomped his feet from time to time to see if there was room in the soil under his feet.

Obviously, he too was disappointed.

"Boss, is there nothing wrong here?" Ran Jie asked Zhu Yu disappointedly after returning to the original starting point, where the two monks were.

"Yes. There is nothing unusual in this Tallinn. We need to look elsewhere. Let's go."

"Then the two of them?" Ran Jie asked.

"Don't worry, they'll wake up in an hour."

The two quietly left here and sneaked over to the Sutra Pavilion.

The Sutra Pavilion is a three-story wooden building, and it looks a little old.

The door of the pavilion is locked, and it is a modern fingerprint lock. It is obviously a bit difficult to get in from here.

Zhu Yu looked up and said:

"I'll go up and have a look first, and you look around."

Ran Jie knew that Zhu Yu had already surpassed them in terms of skill, so he nodded, hid in the grass, and looked around.

Zhu Yu climbed up to the second floor and found that the windows here were all closed.Although it looks like a wooden window, it is actually reinforced.

He climbed up to the third floor again, turned around, and found that a window on the third floor was not closed very tightly.

He took out a small knife from the space, gently inserted it through the gap, and slowly lifted the latch inside.

Opening the window, Zhu Yu got in—in fact, he had already seen it with his heavenly eyes, there was an underground secret room in the Sutra Pavilion.

But after entering the third-floor scripture pavilion, Zhu Yu didn't go down immediately.He found that there are many rare and rare books here.

These rare and rare books are not only Buddhist scriptures, but also other books, such as medical books and astrology books.

Many of these books are from China in the Song, Yuan, and Ming dynasties.

Zhu Yu could even guess that these books were definitely not taken by the monks who went to China at that time. Most likely they were snatched by those ghosts during the invasion of the Eight-Power Allied Forces and later during the War of Resistance Against Japan.

There are at least a hundred copies!

Zhu Yu was not polite at all, and directly put away all these things from Huaxia.

He went to the second floor again, there were a lot of Buddhist scriptures here, Zhu Yu took a look, and the things here were relatively less precious, so he picked a few at random, and then went to the first floor.

Many Buddhist scriptures on the first floor were printed in modern times and were not of high value. Zhu Yu didn't care about it any more, but came to a shelf of scriptures.

The scripture frame was a disguised secret door, Zhu Yu glanced at it, found the mechanism, and pushed the scripture frame aside, revealing a secret door as tall as a person.

Zhu Yu glanced at it, and found that there was no mechanism inside, so he walked down.

The bottom is not too big, there are two dark rooms.A room full of books of all kinds.Zhu Yu took a look and found that these books were also looted, they were all very precious, and some of them were considered lost in China.

There is not a single Buddhist scripture in it, but all medical, divination, astrology, similar scriptures and commentaries, as well as the classic commentaries on Confucianism by famous scholars of various generations.

Zhu Yu put away all these things unceremoniously.

In another dark room are various Buddhist instruments.Any one placed in Huaxia's auction house is worth hundreds of thousands, but here, a house is full.

Obviously, needless to say, these things were also snatched at that time.

Zhu Yu didn't keep any of them, and put them all away.

But obviously, he was not satisfied - he didn't find anything about Xingya Guanyin Temple.

It is still unknown where the Blood Soil Avalokitesvara is.

Zhu Yu turned around again and found that there was really no evidence, so he had no choice but to exit the darkroom and leave the Sutra Pavilion.

Seeing Zhu Yu coming out, Ran Jie showed his figure and asked:
"Boss, how is it? Have you found anything?"

"I didn't find anything related to Xingya Guanyin Temple." Zhu Yu shook his head and said, "Let's look for it in other places."

Ran Jie was also a little disappointed, and the two continued to search in the backyard.

However, I searched almost everything here, and although I also found two secret rooms, the things inside have nothing to do with the Xingya Guanyin Temple and the Blood Soil Guanyin.

Is it wrong?
Zhu Yu once again doubted his previous thoughts.

"Let's go, let's go to the front yard to have a look again!" He thought of the eight urns that had been saved, and Zhu Yu immediately said to Ran Jie again.

Ran Jie didn't know what Zhu Yu was thinking again, but he didn't ask any more questions, and rushed to the front yard with Zhu Yu.

When the two of them passed by, the salvation meeting in the front yard was over, and the monks were leaving the main hall in twos and threes, going to the resting place in the back yard.

Then, Zhu Yu saw a monk holding the box wrapped in yellow cloth and watching the monks leave.

This monk has a problem!
