Add some practice: start with a lucid dream

Chapter 368 The Ancient Temple

"Don't think too much." Chen Ze stood up from the seat, patted Zhang Houde's shoulder casually,

"Live well in the future."

As for Zhang Houde's future, Chen Ze helped him get in touch with a distant relative who was barely able to catch up with Ji Lianyuan in the process of inquiring about Ji Lianyuan's whereabouts.

After negotiation, temporarily let Zhang Houde work as a helper in a relative's restaurant, which can be regarded as supporting himself.

The corridor outside the living room is a bit narrow and long, and the sunlight slanted in from the entrance, cutting the corridor into a clear line of light and darkness.

Zhang Houde didn't say anything, just sat in the shadow, staring at the sunlight at the entrance in a daze.

He is hesitating for his own slim future.

Chen Ze didn't have so many worries, he walked forward in the sunshine, and the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers came into view outside.

Winter to spring.

It's spring.

next go first
Jingle jingle jingle jingle—

Chen Ze, who was immersed in the artistic conception, was forcibly pulled out by the sudden ringtone of the mobile phone.

"Hello?" Chen Ze answered the phone angrily.

It is said that a good hand can get it by chance, Chen Zezheng is very popular in poetry, and it is impossible to write some ancient quatrains with a few strokes.

In this way, when people show their holiness in the future, they don't always have to borrow other people's poems.

"Chen Ze!"

"Old Liu?" Chen Ze was busy reciting poems just now, and didn't even look at the caller ID.

"It's me." The voice is indeed Director Liu, but the volume is not enough.

"You haven't come here yet?" His tone was a little strange.

"Ah? Oh, aren't you busy recently?" Chen Ze felt a little guilty.

He made an appointment with Director Liu to go and see it together, but he never took it to heart.

"." The voice on the other end of the phone suddenly stopped.

"Old Liu?" Chen Ze wondered if Director Liu would be angry because he let him put the pigeons on him.

After all, the two did not have a formal appointment.

Unexpectedly, even a mature and stable person like Lao Liu would
"Don't come." A voice suddenly came from the other end of the phone.

"What do you mean?" Chen Ze was a little surprised.

"Don't, don't come, don't come!" Director Liu suddenly raised his voice an octave, and Chen Ze finally understood his tone.

fear.

Director Liu was very panicked at this time.

"Old Liu." Chen Ze corrected his attitude,

"Don't worry, what's going on?"

"You@#? Anyway, woo, woo." Before the voice finished speaking, the other end of the phone became extremely noisy.

"Hello? Hey Lao Liu? Lao Liu! Hello!" Chen Ze shouted several times without getting a response, so he kept silent and listened carefully.

". Woo. Uncle Liu!"

".Don't let them. It's actually a #*!"

Director Liu seemed to be surrounded by many people who were talking, and the voices were mixed together and it was difficult to hear clearly.

"Don't come here!" Chen Ze was carefully identifying the source of the sound, when Director Liu suddenly yelled again,

"Don't come here! Don't come here!"

"Don't come here! Don't come here! Don't come here ahhhhhhhhh."

beep—

The phone was hung up.

Chen Ze put down the phone from his ear, stared at the call history on the screen, looked again and again, and then dialed back.

"The number you dialed is temporarily unanswered, please try again later. Please"

Call back failed.

chirp chirp chirp——

The innocent little bird in front of him is ignorant and fearless, happily building a nest in the tree canopy.

However, Chen Ze didn't have the leisure to appreciate the scenery, and he didn't have the time to regret that he couldn't write any good sentences through the ages.

Director Liu. What happened to him?
As the saying goes, playing hard to get, Director Liu's phone call actually aroused Chen Ze's curiosity.

Originally, he really didn't have much interest in the so-called Yi Jin Jing and its successors, but now it seems that the pool of water seems to be deeper than he imagined.

Then Chen Ze would like to know, can this pool of water withstand his river-crossing raptor?
After sending Zhang Houde back to the relatives he had agreed upon, Chen Ze contacted Director Liu again while the prison visit application was not yet approved.

It was confirmed that Director Liu was not playing tricks to seduce him, but that something really happened.

It's a pity that he couldn't get in touch with Director Liu himself. He only learned from other members of the film crew that Director Liu was unwell and was temporarily hospitalized in his hometown.

In order not to be disturbed, the insider did not disclose the specific hospital where Director Liu is located.

However, with Chen Ze's unremitting efforts, he still learned the general truth.

Director Liu was probably mentally stimulated a little bit, and there is no serious problem at the moment, but his family members don't want him to recall the past for the time being, even the work has been transferred to other acquaintances in the TV station.

When it came to this point, Chen Ze naturally could only understand, but his little unfeeling request was easily satisfied.

That was Director Liu's itinerary and notes before the accident.

In the hazy mist, the continuous green hills in the distance are looming.

The stream in front of me is going eastward, and the dense steam on the water surface is like a white cloud falling to the ground, accompanied by the stone bridge, slowly wandering in the same direction as the stream.

What a small stone bridge with green mountains and green water.

"Hey!"

"Let's lettuce——"

"Look and see what's fresh!".
A loud horn brought Chen Ze standing by the bridge back to reality.

Although the scenery is pleasant, the population here is not sparse.

Different from the small stone bridge used to enjoy the scenery in the distance, the bridge on which Chen Ze stood was wide and broad, and both sides of the road were crowded with small merchants and hawkers, rushing to come here early in the morning to drink.

Chen Ze followed the flow of people and looked in, and there was a mountain gate at the end of the vegetable market.

And within the mountain gate is an ancient Buddhist temple that is well-known all over the world.

Nanhua Temple.

It has been more than a week since I received a call from Director Liu last time.

The approval of the prison visit is nowhere in sight, so Chen Ze simply came here to find out according to Director Liu's itinerary.

This is the south of SG City, Guangdong Province, on the bank of Caoxi at the foot of Yuling Mountain.

It is also the place where Director Liu stayed for more than a month, and finally fled after being stimulated for no reason.

According to the information Chen Ze learned, there is a "strange person" in the temple that is particularly important.

"Handsome guy~" A merchant lady noticed Chen Ze, who was standing still, and came up to him stealthily, carrying a snakeskin sack.

"Look, these are all local goods, good stuff!"

Chen Ze, who was closing his eyes to feel the energy of heaven and earth, opened his eyes and looked, but saw some miscellaneous fungus in the sack.

"Did you dig it?" Chen Ze casually picked up a handful of mushrooms and looked at them carefully.

"It was dug at the foot of the mountain! Very smart!" The vendor looked uneducated, but when he mentioned the goods in hand, he was eloquent and began to sell them endlessly.

And Chen Ze only extracted the keywords, which were dug around here.

So he transferred the money casually and bought a catty of miscellaneous mushrooms.

"This soup is very nourishing when paired with local chicken! If there are pregnant women in the family." The merchant who opened the shop was beaming, but saw that Chen Ze didn't even wash it, and just stuffed a bag of fungi into his mouth.

"Gollum—"

Chen Ze chewed it, chewed it twice and swallowed it, then stared at the vendor and asked,
"What did you say?"

"No, it's nothing. Haha" The vendor was no longer in the mood to sell, put away the sack with an awkward smile, and quietly looked back at this "weird" as he left.

Chen Ze didn't care, he just urged Yuan Qi in his belly to quickly refine the bacteria.

These are just common miscellaneous bacteria, which have a satiety effect.

However, Chen Ze can rely on the beauty of the original alchemy to get a glimpse of whether there is any abnormality in the Yuan Qi here.

After all, the environment is different, and the products that grow are naturally different.

"belch--"

After a while, Chen Ze burped and felt more at ease.

It has been confirmed that the heaven and earth Yuan Qi in this place is indeed relatively rich, and it can be called a treasure land, most of which have Qi bureaus.

Of course, it is still not as good as the Xianyue Mountain Qi Bureau.

And there is no abnormality similar to the old house of Ji Lianyuan's family before.

So he took out his phone and glanced at Director Liu's notes sent by the film crew. Chen Ze silently wrote down a certain name, and moved forward slowly with the crowd.

Even on weekdays, the place is still crowded with people, and the flow of people is not small. No wonder there are so many vendors gathered here.

After all, Nanhua Temple was first built in the period of Emperor Wu of Liang in the Southern Dynasty, and later Huineng, the sixth ancestor of Zen Buddhism, became famous.

Although it has declined in modern times, it was renovated by the famous monk Xuyun in the last century, and it has a new look. The exuberant incense has continued to this day and its popularity has not diminished.

Near the mountain gate, the place was even more crowded, which made Chen Ze, who had been slowed down, a little bored.

As far as the eye can see, a large group of people are surrounded by the mountain gate, which seems to be the source of the congestion.

Although they were far away, Chen Ze squinted his eyes and looked away disapprovingly.

It was easy to get close, and someone next to him came up and yelled,

"Release, take a look, take a look—"

"A lot of merits and virtues will bring good fortune——"

"Earn blessings for your children and grandchildren."

Many people nearby were distracted, only to realize that they were selling small aquatic animals for people to take to the mountains and release them.

Many people were persuaded to leave the team, which made Chen Ze's progress much less difficult.

It's just that when he came to the gate of the mountain, Chen Ze looked curiously at the fish guards that were continuously being sent from the stream, as if they were moving like ants.

Where do so many fish come from?

Is there a farm here?

Chen Ze didn't think much, shook his head and crossed the Caoxi Gate, which is the mountain gate of Nanhua Temple.

Looking up, the temples are built on the mountain, the halls and pagodas are well-organized, and the primary and secondary are clearly defined.

Further behind is the invisible back mountain, which seems to be sparsely populated.

As soon as he entered the door, Chen Ze looked around, declined the vendors who came up to sell big incense paper money, and then simply covered himself with spiritual consciousness, enjoying himself purely.

Although the mountain gate was more crowded, Chen Ze's route did not coincide with that of the public.

First is the release pool
With the cover of his consciousness, Chen Ze took off from the spot and ascended to the sky, looking down at the crowd from a high position, and soon saw the popular release pool in the corner.

It is said that the pool is more like a lake, covering a vast area, with an oval outline, connecting with mountain streams and flowing all the way down.

Chen Ze stared at the crowd and compared them one by one, but he didn't find the expected target.

On the contrary, the released fish looked more and more familiar.

as if just now
Chen Ze gradually ascended, saw the confluence of mountain streams, and the familiar figure at the foot of the mountain that he had only seen before.

It is the vendors who sell and sell fish by the mountain gate!

Good guy, Chen Ze figured it out.

Selling it to tourists and taking it to the mountain to release the fish, and then catching the fish and selling it when it floats down the mountain, it is a perpetual motion machine of merit.

What a business genius!

In addition, Chen Ze found that beside the release pool, many people were filming videos to express themselves, watching the released fish refused to swim away, but stayed by the pool to "thank you".

"Bless my daughter-in-law to give birth to a fat boy!"

"Many children are blessed, many children are blessed!".
Everyone smiled and praised with joy.

Nanhua Temple has always been famous for its success in praying for children, and most of the pilgrims who come and go come and go for it.

But Chen Ze, who knew the whole picture, naturally knew what was going on.

No fish can resist this up and down toss!

They were all stressed and couldn't swim at all. No wonder they were easily caught and recycled when they drifted to the foot of the mountain.

Is this also in the calculations of the vendors?
Chen Ze was full of admiration.

After searching here for a while, Chen Ze headed up the mountain again after searching unsuccessfully.

The second mountain gate is Baolin Gate.

The couplet beside the door reads "The No. [-] Treasure Temple in Eastern Guangdong, the only method of the Southern Sect".

Horizontal criticism of "Baolin Dojo".

Behind this mountain gate are the main halls of the main bells. It is said that the incorruptible body of the sixth patriarch Huineng in history was preserved in the hall of the sixth patriarch.

After passing through the mountain gate, Chen Ze relied on his spiritual sense to cover up, swaggered around in search of things, and soon stopped in front of a certain pavilion.

The pavilion is made of wood, octagonal, cylindrical with protruding corners, and the pointed top is warped, which is the standard of Wuxiang Pavilion.

The trees on the side are shady, half covered under the shadow of the grove, you can not only enjoy the morning sun, but also have the coolness brought by the breeze.

At this time, there was only one person in the pavilion, with a bald head and glasses, who looked about thirty years old.

The most eye-catching thing is his strangely shaped white robe, with half of his arm exposed, which looks a bit like a monk's robe, but the material is not quite like it.

The whole thing is neither fish nor fowl, and it is even hard to tell whether it is a monk or not.

Chen Ze watched quietly for a while.

Seeing this person absorbed in concentration, he was fiddling with a machine with no obvious use in the corner of the pavilion, and adjusted something with a screw wrench from time to time.

Chen Ze stared at this person's appearance and behavior, gradually matching him with the "weird" image in Director Liu's notes.

According to director Liu's investigation, the person in front of him is named Shi Mingxin, and he is the successor of Yi Jin Jing who he found out after many inquiries.

It is said that it is a family tradition and cannot be kept secret, but Director Liu still got the news for some reason.

Among them, Chen Ze didn't go into details, he only knew that Director Liu stayed in Nanhua Temple for more than a month, and most of the time should be spent trying to soften Shi Ming's heart.

Because I heard that this person has a weird temper and a very bad personality, Director Liu basically went into the battle himself, and did not let other members of the film crew follow.

So much so that when the accident happened, Director Liu came down from the mountain in a panic, found his colleagues and asked to leave immediately, and didn't want to stay for a moment.

"It's disgusting! It's disgusting! It's so dirty!" These were the only words Director Liu revealed.

nausea?

Where is it disgusting? Still dirty?

Chen Ze came to Shi Mingxin's side and looked at him carefully, he felt that this person had a good appearance, his earlobes were unusually long but not obtrusive, he was pretty good.
boom.

The screwdriver in Shi Mingxin's hand suddenly fell to the ground, and he himself turned his head and met Chen Ze's eyes.

A moment later, the wrench in Shi Mingxin's other hand also hit the bench.

"Oh!"

Shi Mingxin took a big step back exaggeratedly, covered his chest with one hand and pointed at Chen Ze and asked loudly,
"Who are you!"

"No, how did you come out!" (End of this chapter)
