Datang: Hiding private money, exposed by Xiao Sizi

Chapter 536 No! How can this be!

Normally, if there are sculptures in a place of faith, such as a Buddhist temple, they should be related to Buddha.

At least it should be some designs like lotus flowers.

But this Beidou Tower is carved with all kinds of flowers, birds, fish and insects.

Could it be that... these flowers, birds, fish and insects are still related to the belief in Beidou Temple?

Haven't you heard that Empress Beidou likes flowers, birds, fish and insects?

strange!
Qin Wenyuan felt that the more he knew about Beidou Temple, the weirder it became.

There are constantly things inside that are inconsistent with common sense.

So, what's going on?

Qin Wenyuan's mind was racing rapidly.

However, due to insufficient clues, it is now difficult for Han Xu to come up with a reasonable explanation.

He took a deep breath and said, "We need more clues!"

He didn't waste any more time. After writing down the patterns on the wall, he walked around the hall again.

In the end, nothing else was found.

Qin Wenyuan looked at Wang Xiaohua, who had really prayed, and said, "Don't you not pray?"

"hey-hey."

Wang Xiaohua smiled sheepishly and said, "I didn't think that the young master asked me to pray, maybe it would actually work."

Qin Wenyuan asked curiously: "What wish do you have that you want Empress Beidou to help you realize?"

Wang Xiaohua glanced at Qin Wenyuan and shook her head: "You can't say it, it won't be effective if you say it."

Qin Wenyuan was amused.

"You would believe it if you lied to a child."

He shook his head and said, "Okay, there's nothing on the first floor. Let's go to the second floor."

Wang Xiaohua secretly glanced at Qin Wenyuan and saw that Qin Wenyuan was about to look at her. She quickly jumped up and said, "Okay, let's go to the second floor."

After saying that, he ran towards the stairs on the second floor, faster than Qin Wenyuan.

Qin Wenyuan looked at Wang Xiaohua's back and shook his head slightly: "Weird girl."

Without thinking much, he slowly walked up the steps towards the second floor.

The second floor of the Beidou Tower in other cities is like a library.

So what about the second floor of this Beidou Temple?
Qin Wenyuan was very curious.

Climb up the steps.

Soon, they arrived on the second floor.

After entering the second floor, what comes into view are rows of bookshelves.

The shelves are filled with books.

At a glance, people will know that this is a place where classics are stored.

Qin Wenyuan raised his eyebrows slightly: "Is it the same as the second floor of the Beidou Tower in other cities?"

This surprised Qin Wenyuan.

Qin Wenyuan thought that since the first floor was different, the second floor would also be different.

But if you think about it carefully, the first floor is actually not that different.

There is only one statue and one incense burner.

The only difference is that the statue is tall enough and the appearance of the statue is different.

Of course, the carvings on the walls are a little different.

But other than that, at first glance, there is not much difference.

Now the second floor is also the place where classics are stored.

Does that mean that the Beidou Towers in other cities are actually built after this Beidou Tower?

But if that's the case, why not just build the nine floors instead of just five?
Qin Wenyuan was confused.

However, he kept walking and soon arrived in front of these bookshelves.

This Beidou Tower covers a large area, so the second floor is also very large.

And even such a large area is filled with bookshelves. From this, we can also see how many books there are on the second floor.

The number of books is far more than the second floor of other Beidou Towers that Qin Wenyuan has been to.

Now Qin Wenyuan is curious whether the books here are the same as the Beidou Tower books in other cities.

They are all the mysterious legend of Beidou Empress.

He was filled with curiosity.

Now he still has a book hidden in his hand that he took along at the Beidou Tower in Taihe City.

The content inside is the legend of Beidou Empress.

So, he was curious.

The fake Beidou Tower is that kind of legend.

So what about the real Beidou view?
"You two believers, do you want to borrow it?"

At this time, a voice sounded.

Qin Wenyuan and Wang Xiaohua looked at it.

Then I saw a Taoist man setting a table and sitting on one side.

There are some papers on the table, which seem to record the borrowing status.

In front of the Taoist, there is also an open book. It seems that this Taoist is a person who loves reading.

Qin Wenyuan said: "We are from out of town. It is our first time to come to our Beidou Tower. We don't understand the rules. If there is any offense, we hope that the Taoist Master will forgive us."

The Taoist is not young, and his temples are already gray.

He smiled kindly and said: "If you can enter the Beidou Tower, you are destined to be the Beidou Empress."

"So don't be too nervous. It will be difficult to enter the Beidou Tower. Once you enter, there won't be so many rules."

"If you want to read a book, you can just go look for it and register with me."

"If you want to borrow it, you can, but you must leave your address and the contents of the return in the future."

Qin Wenyuan blinked and asked curiously: "Don't you have to pay some deposit?"

"deposit?"

The Taoist smiled and shook his head: "We believers in Beidou Temple are all devout. How can we not keep our word? We have loaned out tens of thousands of books over the years and have not lost a single one. Believers don't have to worry."

Qin Wenyuan and Wang Xiaohua were both surprised.

You know, even in later generations, if someone borrows a book from the library, it will be easily lost.

But there are so many books in the Beidou Tower, and so many people have borrowed them, but not one has been lost.

This is really incredible.

He is really extremely pious and really restrains his own behavior, otherwise he would never be able to do this.

As a thief, Wang Xiaohua is more aware of human greed.

So she was even more surprised.

These books seem to be old at first glance.

If it is sold, the price will definitely not be low.

But even so, no one was greedy enough to stay secretly.

This is really not an easy task!

The Taoist looked gentle and said: "Do you two believers want to borrow it, or just read it here?" Qin Wenyuan said: "This is my first time here, and I don't know what to read. Can the Taoist recommend a book for me? Book?"

The Taoist glanced at Qin Wenyuan, then nodded gently and said, "Of course it's okay."

With that said, the Taoist slowly stood up.

He took Qin Wenyuan and Wang Xiaohua and walked towards the bookshelf.

Qin Wenyuan looked at the books on the bookshelf and asked, "Taoist Master, are the books here all the teachings of Beidou Temple?"

The Taoist shook his head.

“Only a small part of it is doctrine,” he said.

"Only a small part of it is doctrine? What about the rest?"

At this time, Wang Xiaohua asked curiously.

Qin Wenyuan also looked at the Taoist.

The Taoist smiled and said, "The other books are all good books."

"It contains many books written by sages."

"Such as The Analects of Confucius, Mencius, Tao Te Ching, etc. If you like these books, you can also read them. These are the crystallization of the wisdom of our ancestors!"

Qin Wenyuan and Wang Xiaohua heard this.

They were all very surprised!
In such a large library on the second floor of the Beidou Tower, there are books such as "The Analects of Confucius" and "Mencius". This is really beyond their expectation!
You know, whether it is a Taoist temple or a temple, they will only store things belonging to their own sect.

Books like the so-called "Analects of Confucius" will never be included!
After all, this is completely inconsistent with their beliefs!
And the more people read, the less likely they are to have loyal beliefs.

Because many of their questions can be answered from books.

Naturally, there is no need to use faith to gain comfort!
Therefore, Qin Wenyuan was surprised that these books were stored in the Beidou Tower.

What is also a little surprising is that these books are all books by the sages of the Central Plains. How about the books of their ancestors in Nanzhao?

Is it none, or is it so small that it’s not worth mentioning?
Qin Wenyuan thought for a while and asked truthfully: "Taoist Priest, why are there "The Analects of Confucius" here? And these books seem to be from the Tang Dynasty, right?"

The Taoist priest seemed to expect that Qin Wenyuan would have doubts.

He was not surprised. While looking for a book for Qin Wenyuan, he said: "Empress Beidou likes to read, and she also hopes that we can all read more. Empress Beidou tells us that reading makes people wise, reading makes people escape from suffering, and reading can change our lives." !”

“We all agree with these, so naturally we want to read these books.”

"As for why these books are from the Tang Dynasty and why they are The Analects of Confucius..."

The Taoist smiled: "Empress Beidou also chose them for us. She said these books are good, informative and valuable, so naturally we will read these books."

Wang Xiaohua couldn't help but blinked.

"How come this Lady Beidou seems to be a real person!"

She didn't know the relationship between Empress Beidou and Qin Wenyuan.

So this question is entirely based on the Taoist’s words.

Qin Wenyuan's eyes flashed.

The Taoist smiled and said: "Beidou Empress is of course a real person. Our Beidou Temple is different from those Buddhist Taoists."

…………

"What they believe in, I don't know if it's true."

"But our Lady Beidou really exists. Otherwise, why do you think our believers would believe in Lady Beidou so much?"

"It's because Empress Beidou once rescued them and did many good deeds. They were moved in their hearts and turned into faith."

Wang Xiaohuayi’s accident.

........................

She didn't expect that Beidou Empress actually existed.

Qin Wenyuan, on the other hand, frowned and said, "What things has Beidou Empress done?"

At this time, the Taoist took out a book from the bookshelf and said, "You will know after reading this book."

Qin Wenyuan took the book and saw that the name of the book was "Beidou Empress".

He looked at the Taoist, who smiled and said: "Everyone who comes to Beidou Temple for the first time, I suggest them to read this book. This book records the good deeds and good deeds of the Beidou Empress in detail. I believe that as long as they have read it, , there is no one who is not moved by it.”

When Wang Xiaohua heard this, her face was full of curiosity.

It was really hard for her to believe that a book could be so powerful.

Qin Wenyuan, on the other hand, grabbed the book tightly.

He felt that maybe, from this book, he would have a chance to know something about his mother.

Could this be the reason why his father asked him to come to Yangju City?
Qin Wenyuan opened the book while thinking in his heart.

After opening the book, Qin Wenyuan saw the content on the first page.

This page tells the story of the birth of Lady Beidou.

According to the content in the book, Beidou Empress was born into a wealthy family. She received a very good education since she was a child. She was well-educated and proficient in all kinds of music, chess, calligraphy and painting. She could be said to be a model for all purdah women in this era.

However, Lady Beidou is not someone who wants to be controlled by dogma.

He has a cheerful and active personality and likes those legendary knights, so he secretly found a master to practice martial arts with him!

But Lady Beidou didn't know that the master who taught her was an expert hermit.

The hermit master saw Empress Beidou's martial arts talent at a glance and was immediately amazed, so he began to teach Empress Beidou very patiently and meticulously.

In the end, Empress Beidou really achieved something.

He cultivated a heroine who was both civil and military, brave and resourceful.

That's all for this page.

Looking at these, Qin Wenyuan seemed to see a girl from a well-off family, unsatisfied with the status quo, extremely talented, and embarking on the path of an extraordinary generation of female heroes with both civil and military skills.

Look at the content of this page.

Qin Wenyuan began to recall what his father told him about his acquaintance with Beidou Empress.

Dad said that he and Empress Beidou punished the evil and promoted the good together, and killed everyone. It was very cool and happy!
Looking at it this way, it should be certain that Beidou Empress knows martial arts!

And his martial arts should be quite strong.

Otherwise, there is no way that Dad and I would dare to get rid of those copycats.

If you don't have the ability, doing this kind of thing is no different from seeking death.

Not to mention that even Beichen from the Beidou Club was attracted in the end!

If he wasn't special enough, if he wasn't good enough, people like Beichen would never fall easily, let alone love to hate easily!
Therefore, this can prove that the content of this page should have a certain degree of credibility!

Is this book really a complete record of my mother?
Qin Wenyuan narrowed his eyes.

"Ah, isn't the heroine mentioned in this book me?"

At this time, a roaring sound sounded.

Qin Wenyuan's thoughts were called back by Wang Xiaohua.

He glanced at Wang Xiaohua, and saw that Wang Xiaohua was a little embarrassed and said: "I just feel... I am both civil and military, a chivalrous and righteous woman, a chivalrous woman of a generation, that's me."

Qin Wenyuan laughed: "Able to be both civil and military?"

Wang Xiaohua couldn't stand Qin Wenyuan's gaze, coughed and said: "Then... just remove Wen, Mr. Wu can do it!"

"I think back when I traveled all over the country, if I wasn't strong in martial arts, I would have died countless times. Moreover, I only stole money from wealthy families and evil people, and I didn't keep any of the money I stole for myself. All of it was given to the working people. Okay, am I not acting chivalrously?"

Wang Xiaohua hopes to gain Lu Qing's approval...

Because she just discovered that when Qin Wenyuan looked at the content of this page, his expression was different from before.

She felt that maybe Qin Wenyuan just liked this kind of chivalrous woman.

So she took the initiative to lean up.

She hopes that she can become what Qin Wenyuan likes.
