Chapter 805
"You're awake now. What were you talking about in your sleep just now? Red and east wind?"
"Fengzi, did you dream about playing mahjong?"
The morning sun was rising. After I got up, I ignored Dou Sprouts and asked in a low voice: "Brother Yu, after we came back from Guan Luoyin yesterday, did you have any dreams?"
"For example... meeting Xiaoqian or someone?"
"That's not true. I slept soundly when I came back yesterday."
Is that just me?
"Why, I think you don't look good. You haven't had a good rest?" Brother Yu asked.
"No, it's nothing."
I told the boss what I had learned from Grandma Xiao Tang, so that there would be clues to connect the two.
In 1996, the Daoxian County Cultural Relics Bureau discovered a stone sculpture suspected of being a Taoist priest.
In 1895, a woman named Chen Meiqing sent by Coastal Lushan came to Guizailing. The Guizai Temple in the village was also established at that time.
The Gui Zai Temple behind the big tree is more than one meter high and one meter wide. Grandma Xiao Tang said there was a hole under the brick, which aroused our interest.
After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, many people went out to work, and the streets in the village suddenly became deserted.
We didn’t dare to go during the day, so in the dead of night, a group of us changed our clothes and entered Guizailing with our big bags.
The clay statues in the temple are still there, but they have more cracks than in the past few days, probably due to water damage.
"Is there no one there?" Tou asked.
In the dead of night, Dou Sprout turned around and looked around, "There's no one there, not even a ghost."
The Gui Zai Temple has no door, and the ground floor is neatly paved with a layer of blue bricks, which were made more than a hundred years ago.
"Pry it open." He pointed his head at the brick and said.
Dou Sprout took out a short crowbar and pointed it at the crack between the bricks.
I picked up a stone and used it as a hammer, and smashed the crowbar down.
"Look carefully, don't hit my hand."
I said take it.
The crowbar was smashed along the seam of the green bricks. Douyazai pressed the crowbar hard, and a green brick was lifted up.
Seeing that there was a layer of soil under the bricks, he raised his head and said, "Continue."
Just like laying floor tiles, as long as you pick up one piece, it will be easier to do other things.
"It's nothing. It's all dirt. Where are the holes?" Dou Sprout said, shaking the flashlight after prying all the bricks apart.
Just like Bean Sprouts said, take away all the bricks and what is exposed will be the soil layer of the same color as the surroundings. There are no holes in the ground.
It's been a long time. Could it be that Grandma Xiao Tang remembered it wrong?
Or did she lie to me?
I don't think so, because her biggest secret is in my hands, and she is afraid that I will tell Xiao Tang what kind of person my grandma is, so she shouldn't lie to me.
But... everything in front of me is flat soil, where is the hole?
At this time, Xiaoxuan said: "Can you move the clay figurine away? It's a bit invasive."
I looked up.
The Taoist statue in the temple is facing forward, looking at all of us.
The craftsmen who made the clay statues in the past had good skills. From our perspective, the clay statues happened to be looking at us sideways.
The clay figure seemed angry, so Xiaoxuan said she was scared. After all, we had pried off all the floor tiles in its temple.
Uncle Xue stood closest to the statue. He smiled, pushed the statue back a little, and turned it over so that his back was facing us.
"Huh? That's not right..."
My head suddenly made a sound of surprise, and I quickly asked what was wrong.
Point your head to the ground for us to see.
Because it is winter, the trees here in Guizailing have no leaves. There is a moon that night. Because Master Xue just pushed back, the moonlight entering the small temple was blocked by the clay statues, leaving a patch of light on the ground just in front of us. Square shade.
This square shadow has a small area and is square like a window.
The specific reason should be that the square Taoist crown worn on the head of the clay statue blocked the moonlight and left a shadow. To put it bluntly, it is a Taoist hat.
He stared at the square shadow on the ground for a few seconds, and suddenly said: "Yunfeng, dig down from here."
I nodded and started digging directly.
After digging down for more than thirty centimeters, suddenly, the flat shovel in my hand hit an obstacle and I couldn't go down further.
After the dirt was cleared, everyone could see clearly.
In front of him is a small square bluestone slab, less than twenty centimeters wide.
Using a flashlight, he wiped the dirt with his sleeve, and two vertical rows of words carved with a knife appeared on the bluestone.
After carefully identifying the words, he raised his head and read softly:
"Kun... Kun, the refining master, Chen, searched for the Biluo Huangquan in Suidao County, and finally found the Seven Vajra Gates. However, he knew that his time had come. Hu and Chen in the world were from the same sect, and after Shun and Yu, the refining master Chen also followed Chen's example. The Great Master, with his head under his head and his body as a temple, is worthy of his visit to the human world."
"In the 21st year of the reign of Emperor Guangxu, at the end of Year Yi, in winter, Kun Lian master Chen and his disciples left an engraving."
"What...what does this mean?" Dou Sprout stammered a bit.
