An RV, the routine of Jingchuan Liyu to travel

Chapter 291 Theft
So there was no way to record what Jerome saw.

Perhaps, you can rely on your own memory to describe it.

The towering spire, the entire temple has murals on all sides, the doors and windows are in the shape of square spires, and the frames are inlaid with gold leaf and colored glass, which looks beautiful and colorful.

"Ding! May I ask if the host is checking in at the Jade Buddha Temple?"

The familiar system prompt sounded, and Ye Qiu nodded without hesitation.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully clocking in. Two-thirds of the task of clocking in the three major national treasures of Siam has been completed. Please continue to work hard."

Surprisingly, the system even encouraged Ye Qiu this time, which is rare.

Or rather, it's never been the case before.

It seems that the system is also slowly developing in the direction of humanization!
"God, what a beautiful building, what a magnificent scale, this is a miracle in the history of art that can only be built with all the wisdom of human beings!"

"It's great. I've never seen such a shocking scene. It would be great if I could show it to my parents."

It’s amazing to be amazed, but after all, I can’t record the scene in front of me and share it with my parents who are thousands of miles away.

As a filial son, Jerome only felt regretful.

Who knows when the next time I come to Siam will be?

"Actually... I can grant your wish." Ye Qiu said to Jerome with a mysterious smile.

"Ah? What, Ye, you're not lying to me, are you?" Jerome quickly looked at Ye Qiu, his eyes full of expectation.

Now he can be said to admire Ye Qiu so much.

Those series of astonishing performances had already made Jerome treat Ye Qiu as a god.

But can God really help him fulfill this wish?

"Here, I'll give you the camera, but you have to take it easy, don't be discovered by others, or you will be kicked out."

With the cover of his jacket, Ye Qiu took out his camera from the storage ring, and secretly handed it to Jerome.

"This...Ye, how did you do it? Where did you hide the camera? Didn't they check it?"

Jerome couldn't even believe his eyes, but what he was holding in his hand was undoubtedly a camera.

And it's still a miniature SLR, which was discovered very slowly.

"You don't have to worry about this, I have my own method, so don't worry about using it." Ye Qiu smiled lightly, he was not going to explain the use of the storage ring to Jerome.

On the other hand, Xiaoyao touched his chin, stared at Ye Qiu's hand for a while, and nodded thoughtfully.

"Let's go and see the most valuable existence of this temple, the origin of the name of the Jade Buddha Temple, the Holy Heaven Jade Buddha!"

As the core of the entire temple, the value of the Holy Jade Buddha can be imagined, and it can even be said that it is unparalleled in the entire Siam.

"The Jade Buddha in front of you is about 66 centimeters high and 48 centimeters wide. It is carved from a whole piece of top-quality jadeite, representing the peak level of craftsmanship at that time."

"And according to legend, in order to obtain this Jade Buddha, Siam and several countries around it even resorted to force to compete for the ownership of the Jade Buddha."

"However, Siam became stronger later, snatched the Jade Buddha and placed it here."

"So the Jade Buddha in front of you still has a lot of background."

After listening to Ye Qiu's introduction, Jerome couldn't help giving a thumbs up.

"Traveling with Ye is like bringing an encyclopedia with you."

"I wonder now, what exactly is your brain made of, and why it can hold so much knowledge."

"Who told him to be my brother Ye, an almighty existence!" Xiaoyao also laughed.

"Okay, don't be poor with me. But since everyone is here, let's burn incense and worship Buddha."

If the Golden Buddha Temple is the most popular Buddhist temple for ordinary people to visit, then the Jade Buddha Temple has attracted a large number of high-ranking officials and dignitaries. Who made it sit in the imperial palace?

Generally, when you come to this kind of place, you are in a state of extreme awe, otherwise you will be considered dishonest.

"Come on, I won't get involved. If Master asks me to worship Buddha, he must beat me up." Xiaoyao shook his head to express his refusal.

Ye Qiu naturally wouldn't force him, perhaps this is the Shushan sect's rules.

Following Ye Qiu's example, Jerome picked up a stick of incense and lit it, and bowed seriously to the Buddha statue in front of him.

"Huh? Did you smell anything?"

After raising his head, Jerome asked curiously.

"It seems to have a... burnt smell, no, it's a burnt smell!"

Ye Qiu frowned, and then inserted the lit incense into the incense stand.

"It seems that something happened, brother Ye, look!"

Looking in the direction Xiaoyao pointed at, thick smoke billowed out of nowhere and was sweeping across the entire hall.

The ear-piercing fire alarm sounded, and the surrounding pilgrims made a mess and rushed towards the outside of the hall.

"What's the situation, this temple is on fire, and the precautionary measures are too poor!" Jerome couldn't help complaining, and quickly followed the crowd to leave the scene.

Because the smoke was too heavy, the real situation in the hall could not be seen very quickly, and the Jade Buddha was quickly hidden in the white smoke.

The monks of the temple rushed to the main hall one after another, carrying fire extinguishers, looking for the fire point everywhere.

"Something seems to be wrong." Xiaoyao murmured.

"Huh? What's wrong?" Ye Qiu asked.

They were standing on the merit square of the temple, surrounded by many terrified pilgrims, their faces full of astonishment, and they didn't understand why this happened in the Jade Buddha Temple, which has always taken good security measures.

"I just saw smoke, but I didn't seem to see anything ignited, not even a spark, which shouldn't be the case."

After Xiaoyao said this, Ye Qiu walked a few steps towards the main hall. Although the fire extinguishing efficiency of those monks was indeed very high, but such a thick smoke could spread out, the fire must be not small.

At least in a short period of time it is impossible to be extinguished.

But in fact, Ye Qiu didn't see the existence of a cluster of fire at all.

As a fire attribute owner who is extremely sensitive to the power of fire, Ye Qiu didn't feel anything.

That is, not on fire at all.

"That's right, there's only smoke, no fire, just a false alarm." Ye Qiu nodded.

"This smoke... Brother Ye, do you think it was an accident or a coincidence?" Xiaoyao asked suddenly.

"It really doesn't look like an accident. Unless someone did it on purpose, it's impossible to produce such a large cloud of smoke." Ye Qiu pondered.

"So...if the smoke is really man-made, what is their purpose?" Speaking of this, Xiaoyao seemed to have thought of something, and strode towards the resplendent palace.

Along the way, I met many monks returning with fire extinguishers, each with puzzled expressions on their faces.

Seeing this scene, Xiaoyao confirmed his thoughts even more.

The thick smoke gradually dissipated, and when Xiaoyao returned to the main hall, there were only a few sporadic tourists who did not escape, sighing in place.

"What, what did you find?" Ye Qiu walked up and asked.

"Well... I always feel that the smoke is a bit strange. There must be some important reason behind it, covering up the truth." Xiaoyao said in a deep voice, and kept observing the surroundings with his eyes, hoping to find some clues.

Ye Qiu was the same, observing the situation in the hall carefully, it seemed that nothing had changed, it was still resplendent and resplendent, and the Buddha statue still looked down on everyone with serious eyes.

Wait...a Buddha statue? !

Seemingly thinking of something, Ye Qiu suddenly raised his head to look at the Holy Jade Buddha.

After a long time, after getting an affirmative answer, Ye Qiu showed an intriguing smile.

"I finally understand what this farce is all about."

"Oh? How should I say, Brother Ye, tell me quickly!" Xiaoyao asked quickly, and even Jerome came over curiously.

The inexplicable thick smoke is raging, such an accident is actually rare in the scenic area.

Not to mention that this kind of temple, except for lighting incense, generally prohibits smoking and fire.

"Have you seen the Holy Heaven Jade Buddha? Fake, it was dropped."

"what?!"

Jerome shouted directly, and looked at Ye Qiu in shock, but immediately covered his mouth, because he found that many people were looking at him.

But Xiaoyao was slightly taken aback, and quickly looked at the Holy Jade Buddha.

"It's true. The workmanship and materials are not as good as before, and they have indeed been swapped."

"But who would it be, with such boldness and such an obvious target, how could they get out?"

Xiaoyao was quite puzzled.

If the other party also has storage tools, it's okay to say that it is not surprising how many statues they take away.

But the rarity of this kind of storage tool determines that it is almost impossible to use this method to transport the statue.

"Ahem...the Holy Jade Buddha has been stolen, hurry up and catch the thief!" Ye Qiu suddenly shouted to the surroundings.

The monks present looked back at him one after another, with contempt on their faces, as if they were looking at a lunatic.

Today was already messy enough, why did a crazy tourist come to make trouble?
And those pilgrims who had just walked in, after hearing Ye Qiu's words, stared at the lofty Holy Jade Buddha for a while, and then showed the same expressions as the monks.

Seeing that no one believed his words, Ye Qiu was not angry, walked to the Buddha statue with a smile, and took a bowl from the incense table.

"Ye... what are you going to do?"

Seeing Ye Qiu's posture, Jerome suddenly had a bad feeling.

"It's okay, you stand back a little, don't hurt you." Ye Qiu smiled lightly, and turned around to remind him.

Then, in front of so many people, Ye Qiu smashed the bowl in his hand like a holy jade Buddha.

"Whoa!"

The originally sacred and inviolable Jade Buddha was smashed beyond recognition by the bowl, and the fragments must have been scattered.

This scene shocked everyone present!

Especially those monks, they didn't even realize what happened in the first time.

"You... what did you do?!"

A big monk pointed at Ye Qiu, his body trembling unceasingly, his eyes were broken, and he walked towards Ye Qiu step by step.

"Don't worry, look at this statue, is it really the Jade Buddha you usually see?" Ye Qiu's expression didn't change at all, he just asked a simple question.

Although the great monk was still angry, after hearing Ye Qiu's words, he stretched out his hand to stop the monks who were about to rush up to find Ye Qiu's theory.

Turning his head, he saw that the fragments all over the floor were white at the junction between the pieces.

The great monk quickly squatted down, picked up a fragment of the Jade Buddha and observed it.

Sure enough, it is fake, the composition of this fragment is ceramics!
"Go, activate the emergency warning, close the temple immediately, don't let anyone out, worry about the royal police, and find those thieves who stole things!"

"Yes!"

Such a big battle made the pilgrims a little panicked, and they didn't even know what happened.

"Sorry sir, forgive me for not believing it at the first time. You know, I need to confirm it to prove what you said."

The great monk walked up to Ye Qiu and bowed deeply as an apology.

"It doesn't matter. It's everyone's responsibility to protect such precious cultural relics! It's just that it's not so easy to find the lost Buddha statue." Ye Qiu smiled lightly.

"Oh, I hope so." The great monk sighed, who would have thought that such an accident would happen?
All the pilgrims were gathered in the Gongde Square again, and soon the royal police arrived at the scene, working with the monks on how to find the Jade Buddha.

"Tsk, it's really lively. I didn't expect to see the scenes that can only be seen in TV dramas when I come out. It's rare!" Xiaoyao sat on the ground and smiled slowly.

Ye Qiu suddenly felt helpless: "Aren't you also a person who only exists on TV?"

"Ahem...that's different, different!" Xiaoyao shook his head quickly, trying to clear up his relationship.

"When will we be able to leave? It's been more than half an hour, why haven't we found it yet?" Jerome couldn't help complaining.

Dozens of royal policemen and elite Swarts were conducting an orderly investigation in the temple, not even a single fly was let go.

"It's estimated to last for a long time, I'm afraid we won't be able to go back before the sun goes down!" Xiaoyao chuckled.

Anyway, he was not in a hurry, and seeing so many people busy, it was quite entertaining.

"Sir, would you please work with me?"

Just when Ye Qiu was bored and ready to have some fun, the great monk who had communicated with him before found him again.

And looking very anxious, he should be worried about the theft of the Jade Buddha.

You must know that the value of the Emerald Buddha is far less than its cost, and it includes the national value of the entire Siam.

What's more, this is a royal temple, with the royal family behind it, and the Jade Buddha can also be said to be a symbol of the royal family.

Just being stolen under the nose like this, where is the dignity?

"Yes, yes." Ye Qiu nodded and agreed.

"We'll go with you too!" Xiaoyao pulled Jerome and followed.

"This..." The great monk hesitated for a moment.
