Master Luo Cao

The monk and the scholar walked happily one after the other, totally oblivious to the fact that there was another person behind them.Kou Luoqi followed them all the way to the gate of the Daxiong Palace, the monk finally remembered that he should look back, Kou Luoqi immediately dodged under the shadow of a tree, and then the monk said: "Come in, the abbot and the big guys are all inside waiting for you."

The scholar replied: "Yes." They lifted their feet and stepped over the threshold, and the door was closed heavily immediately, blocking Kou Luoche's sight.He quietly moved forward, with his ears pressed against the door panel, he heard a rustling sound coming from inside, and the scholar's startled voice, "This...this...brother, what's going on?"

The monk said calmly: "Go in, the abbot is inside."

After that, there was no more sound, and the room fell into a long silence.

Kou Luoche was so curious outside the door that he scratched his heart and liver, and finally couldn't hold back, pierced the window paper, and went in quietly—the main hall is still brightly lit, and the benevolent Buddha statue is quietly looking down at all living beings , but did not see the two people who just entered, it seemed that the monk and the scholar were just an illusion produced by Kou Luoche in a trance.

"The monk in Yunjian Temple is so bold that he actually built the darkroom of the organ under the main hall..." Kou Luoche murmured to himself. When he and Fu Yunshu came to the main hall last night, he touched a release The lotus pedestal of Kamoni, at that time, I vaguely felt a faint vibration under it, but because I brought a bottle of oil with me, I didn't dare to act rashly. Later, I heard from the shopkeeper of Yuelai Inn that there was a mechanism in Yunjian Temple. Immediately thought of this place.He rolled his eyes, he and Fu Yunshu came here last night, as if they had entered a land of no one, presumably the monks had been carefree for too long, they had lost their vigilance, not even a lookout was left, and all went to the secret room up.Kou Luoche sneered, swaggered open the door and walked in, went straight to the lotus seat of the Buddha, put his ear to it and listened for a moment, then opened his eyes, stretched out his hand firmly, held one of the lotus petals, and snapped it hard ——I only heard the slight sound of the machine running inside the Buddha statue, and then there was a "click", and a small square door appeared at the base.

The inside of the door is not a boxy room as Kou Luoche imagined, filled with missing teenagers tied up into rice dumplings, but a narrow and secret passage, in which are inserted every other section of the road. A torch illuminates the entire secret passage brightly.Kou Luoche stood in front of the secret passage, hesitating a little. He was somewhat concerned about Fu Yunshu who was still lying on the wall blowing the cold wind. After thinking twice, he still took out the saber at his waist and held it in his hand, and then stepped into the secret passage without looking back.

Fu Yunshu opened his eyes in bewilderment, only to find that there was darkness in front of him. He turned his head vigorously, and found that someone had tied cloth strips in front of him, not only his eyes, but also his hands and feet were tightly bound. There was something stuffed in their mouths. They dug some rags from some graveyard. The sour smell was so strong that Fu Yunshu was in tears. After struggling hard, he found that the person who tied the rope was very professional. He turned his wrist in vain for a long time, but it didn't move at all.

The guard beside him noticed his futile struggle, smiled mockingly, and said, "Don't waste your efforts, little brother, we are going to a good place, what are you in a hurry for?"

This voice is exactly the woman who pretended to be a vixen before!

Fu Yunshu's chaotic mind gradually became clear. He remembered that he had rejected the other party's request to "practice together". There were countless snow-white powders, and he accidentally inhaled two mouthfuls, and immediately became dizzy, his hands and feet became weak, and he fell to the ground powerlessly.

But at this moment, he was lying motionless in an unknown place, the surroundings were shaking violently, presumably it should be in the carriage.Fu Yunshu "woo hoo" twice, indicating that he has something to say.

The woman said in a soft voice: "What's the matter, little brother, don't tell me that you are urgent to pee." She sneered, "There were 24 people who said they were urgent to pee. I will be in a hurry, I use the knife very quickly, it will disappear in the blink of an eye, and it will not hurt at all." She lightly poked Fu Yunshu's place with her finger, and said quietly: "Do you want to try?"

Fu Yunshu's stomach tightened, and his head immediately shook like a rattle. Seeing this, the woman sneered and stopped talking.Fu Yunshu was silent for a moment, and then hesitantly gave two "woo hoo".The woman gave a "tsk" impatiently, and rudely tore off the rag stuffed in his mouth, saying: "Fart your fart! If it weren't for your tenderness, I would have..."

"How much money do you want? I'll give it!" Fu Yunshu hurriedly yelled as soon as his mouth was let go: "I'll give you whatever you want!"

The woman was taken aback for a moment, then she laughed, patted Fu Yunshu's fair face lightly, and said, "Little brother, are you very good?"

When Fu Yunshu heard that there was something interesting, he immediately became excited, "I'll take you to my brother! All the money is with him!"

"It's a pity." The woman sighed faintly: "Your body is much more useful than real gold and silver."

Fu Yunshu was taken aback, "What do you mean?"

"It means..." The woman put the rag back into Fu Yunshu's mouth viciously, "You don't want to escape from my palm!"

Kou Luoche walked all the way tremblingly but also safely, without any traps or hidden weapons that he had originally imagined, he walked smoothly to the end of the secret passage—but the end was just an ordinary wall.

He tapped it with his knuckles, the sound was crisp, it should be hollow.Assuming that there must be a mechanism on the wall, Kou Luoche carefully touched the bricks one by one. When he touched a certain brick, his fingertips trembled slightly. He pressed lightly, and the brick was pushed in by him. The surrounding area immediately vibrated violently.It's just that the wall in front of him didn't disappear, but the secret passage walls on both sides of his body began to approach slowly.Kou Luoche made a "thump" in his heart, it was because he touched the mechanism by mistake!

The secret passage behind him is deep and secluded. No matter how good Kou Luoche is, he might not be able to escape in a short while. He looked up. Since the wall can move, it means that it is not a tight fit with the top wall. He only hopes that the gap is big enough. , can accommodate him alone.While thinking about it, Kou Luoche leaped lightly and climbed to the top of the wall. Fortunately, the gap here is just enough for one person to lie down.Kou Luoche leaned on the wall, and in an instant, the secret passage that could have allowed the two of them to walk side by side was completely blocked. He couldn't help but secretly thankful that he didn't bring Fu Yunshu in, otherwise it would be really difficult now up.

He took out a fire pocket from his secret pocket, blew on it twice, and the fire pocket ignited a faint light. He lowered his head and looked into the gap, but he didn't notice anything unusual. His gaze swept across the wall below him inadvertently, but He was startled for a moment, then immediately came back to his senses, holding the torch to shine on the wall.

There are a few words written on the wall, the color is black and the handwriting is scrawled, as if it was written by biting a finger in a panic.

The temple colluded with the museum, and the man was no longer there...

What was printed on the back was a shocking bloody handprint.

Kou Luoche's eyes trembled, and he looked at the bloody handprint in disbelief, "Yang Ye..."

Yang Ye is a handsome guy, with red lips and white teeth, only one point, he has nine fingers, I heard that it was caused by an accident when he was a child, so he has always had some low self-esteem, and he was quiet and didn't talk much in the county government. He hid his hands visibly, but he was very diligent and capable. Fu Yunshu valued him secretly, and told Kou Luoche that Yang Ye could be the head catcher after some training.

As for the bloody handprint reflected by the faint flames, the bloodstains have turned dark brown due to too long time, and the thumb, index finger, middle finger, and ring finger are all clearly printed, except for the little finger.

The wall below him began to move slowly again. Unlike before, Moyue, when the time came, the two walls began to slowly separate, and after a while, they returned to the original appearance of the secret passage.The sound of the mechanism running came from somewhere, and the wall where Kou Luoche accidentally touched the mechanism before suddenly opened, and someone inside shouted: "Go and see which thief's bone has been squeezed into a meat paste! " Immediately, a bald head emerged from the wall. It was the monk who led the scholar into the Daxiong Palace before. He looked at the secret passage in confusion, "Hey, why is there no one?"

"People are here." Someone behind him suddenly said faintly.

The monk trembled all over, and was about to turn his head to look at it, but suddenly there was a long knife with a cold light on his neck, which frightened him so that he froze immediately and did not dare to move, begging in a low voice: "The hero, spare your life!"

Kou Luoche said: "Tell me, how many people are there?" The monk opened his mouth, but before he could make a sound, Kou Luoche said again: "You and I don't have much time. If I dare to play tricks, I won't waste my time. Wipe your neck with a knife and use your blood to open the way."

The monk swallowed his saliva with difficulty, and said tremblingly: "Counting me, there are two other people, a total of three people."

Kou Luoche asked suspiciously: "Three people? There are so many monks in your temple, are the others dead?" The hand holding the knife handle increased strength, and a trace of blood slowly flowed from the monk's fragile neck, "It seems Are you planning to resist death?"

"No! No! Good man, I really didn't lie! There are indeed only two people inside..." His legs were shaking violently. If it wasn't for the fear that the deadly weapon was still on his neck, his calves would no longer be able to hold it up. His body was about to collapse to the ground, he seemed to suddenly think of something, and said quickly: "Oh, that's right! There is another one, we tricked... please bring a young man! But he has passed out right now. "

Guessing that the young man should be the scholar from before, Kou Luoche didn't ask, but said: "Then the other people in your temple are kind?"

The monk faltered and said: "They...they have all gone outside..."

Kou Luoche asked, "Which one is outside?"

The monk said: "The city...in the city..."

"Jiangbei City is so big, can't they dig a hole and bury themselves?" Kou Luoche said with a sneer, "Let me take a guess, your friends should be in the... Mandarin Duck Pavilion, right now?" Neither?"
