"Bah! Return the Pure Land of Buddhism. A place like this that harbors filth and evil deserves to be called a Pure Land Temple!"
The Jia family was the victim of the Liang Yuan assassination case, and Jia Cong's father almost died in Liang Yuan.
After cursing, he took off the slingshot from his waist and looked at the white wall eaves in the gap between the bamboo trees.
Everyone held their breath and waited for news about Long Jin Wei Erlang.
When Jia Shiyi arrived with the news from the front yard, there was a chaotic shouting sound in the small courtyard.
"Captain Cao, the prince told my general that you can rest assured that no monks or monks from the Pure Land Temple are allowed to enter the inner courtyard!"
In fact, after Jia Shiyi brought the message, Jia She made a prompt decision and directly asked his soldiers to separate the front and back yards of the Pure Land Temple.
Swords and swords were drawn out, and nearly a hundred monks and monks took down their sticks. Anyone who dared to run around had their hands and feet broken, and anyone who dared to resist was killed without mercy.
After killing two monks, the front yard immediately became quiet. Including Liu Fang, all the believers and pilgrims in the front yard looked at Jia She who put the knife on a monk's neck, and were inexplicably horrified.
Originally thinking it was a small conflict, the two old dandies just left after smashing it up. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be fatal.
Bang!
The door of the small courtyard was kicked open, and the Dragon Guards who climbed in from the back wall rushed in with a knife.
"Captain, there were more than ten people resisting with weapons, and the brothers have killed them. A secret room was found in the left room, connected by a secret passage. Many people escaped along the secret passage, and my subordinates have arranged for people to chase them. past."
The moment Cao Jiugong led Jia Cong and others into the small courtyard, the smell of blood hit their nostrils.
A Qianhu from the Dragon Imperial Guard came forward and reported the results of the fighting in just a quarter of an hour with his fists clasped.
Jia Cong stepped on the blood on the ground and followed Cao Jiugong into the exquisite room on the left. The Buddhist scroll originally hung on the wall was thrown to the ground, revealing a small door.
As soon as he entered, Liu Hong couldn't help but exclaimed.
It turned out that there was not only a secret passage in the secret room, but also two small rooms on the left and right. Under the dim candlelight, several girls with fearful eyes were crowded in the corners of the room.
These girls were dressed in rags, and some were even wearing a warrior's jacket. It was obviously the work of the Dragon Guards who had just rushed in.
The thin, small, frightened girls trembled and looked at the people who rushed in. They must have discovered the difference between Cao Jiugong and the others and the Japanese monks, and cried out after a brief panic.
Someone probably wanted to ask for help, but after opening and closing his mouth, he could only make ahhh sounds.
"Captain, these girls have been poisoned and mute!"
Cao Jiugong's face was very ugly. He said in a deep voice: "Take them out immediately and send them to General Qin to ask her to take care of them. The others split up to check and dig three feet of the Pure Land Temple for the governor. The governor wants to take a look today. , what secrets are hidden in this Buddhist pure land!"
Although Liu Hong, Liu Chong and others had never seen anything like this, they could still imagine what these girls had gone through.
They quietly avoided it until the soldiers of the Long Imperial Guard sent him to Qin Yuliang, and then returned to the secret room.
Four arm-thick candles were lit, illuminating the originally dark secret room.
Following the secret passage, after turning two turns, everyone unexpectedly came to a spacious place.
I don’t know how the people of Pure Land Temple did it. They actually dug out rooms under the ground.
Jia Cong walked into one of the rooms. He opened a wooden box placed in it and used the light of the candle in his hand to see clearly what was inside.
His arm shook and he almost dropped the candle in the box. After he held it firmly, he immediately became paralyzed with fear.
Then he backed away cautiously, and as soon as he left the house, he shouted: "Cao Dudu, fourth brother, if there is danger, get out quickly!"
After Cao Jiugong forced Liu Hong and others out of the secret passage, he and Jia Cong carefully re-entered the house.
Cao Jiugong was shocked and said to himself: "There is so much gunpowder. Are the people from Pure Land Temple planning to blow up the capital?"
Jia Cong looked at the large and small wooden boxes in the secret room and said bitterly: "Cao Dudu, shouldn't we check first how so much gunpowder got to the Pure Land Temple?"
Forbidden substances like gunpowder could not easily flow into the public.
What's more, the amount of gunpowder hidden in this secret room is enough to blow half of the square into the sky.
After being reminded by Jia Cong, Cao Jiugong immediately realized that the matter was more serious than he imagined.
"Brother Cong, go to the teahouse opposite Pure Land Temple immediately and report this matter to Your Majesty..."
"Captain, there is another discovery in the yard next door!"
Before the gunpowder matter was arranged, another secret room was discovered in the yard next door.
Cao Jiugong had to arrange for someone to guard the place, and hurried to the small courtyard next door with Jia Cong.
The layout is similar to the previous courtyard, but this time the secret room is hidden behind the rockery in the courtyard.
Through a small door, you reach the next door to the Pure Land Temple. This is a small courtyard with two entrances. The layout is ordinary, but it contains extremely amazing discoveries.
As soon as the two of them came in, they saw a captain of the Dragon Guard hurriedly greet them.
He cupped his fists and reported, "Captain, this is appalling, appalling. My subordinates led people to investigate this place, and found that dozens of babies were imprisoned here. The oldest was no more than six or seven years old, and the youngest was no more than three months old. And..."
The captain suddenly turned pale, bit his lip and was speechless.
Cao Jiugong got impatient with waiting and said coldly: "Speak!"
I saw the captain pointing to the wellhead in the courtyard, gritting his teeth and saying, "Just now, I was striking grass to scare the snake. When my subordinates rushed here, there were two thieves who threw the baby into the well."
Cao Jiugong and Jia Cong were both startled, and rushed over to look down. The dark well looks like the mouth of a devouring beast, which is intimidating. Z.br>
The well is so deep that you can't even see the bottom.
The school captain lamented: "My subordinates were unable to stop me, and I saw two children being thrown in with my own eyes. The two thieves were very skilled. They climbed the wall and fled as soon as they saw my subordinates. The brothers had already chased them... "
"Help!"
Jia Cong lay at the mouth of the well and shouted anxiously. In his impression, even if he fell into the well, there was still a chance to save him.
Moreover, the captain's description just now reminded him of the Jiangnan experience that his second brother Jia Lian once told him, and the memories of his past life that had been suppressed in his heart came to mind again.
From what I saw and heard today, this small courtyard is like a microcosm of the Jinling Massacre in the previous life, how similar it is! How hard to conceal the grief and anger!
Jia Cong urged again and again, but the captain said bitterly: "Sir, it's too late, Mr. Jia. My subordinates have already tried it. The well was too deep. The brothers tied ropes and just went halfway down. They fainted as if they had been poisoned." Go over there. If I hadn't discovered it early, I might have died!"
"Try again, try again..."
Jia Cong saw the rope on the ground, picked it up and tied it to himself: "Cao Dudu, come and help. I'll go down and take a look."
Snapped!
Cao Jiugong knocked the rope from Jia Cong's hand and scolded: "What are you going to do? Are you going to die?"
"Someone is coming..."
After Cao Jiugong stopped the angry and stupid Jia Cong, he ordered with a livid face: "With this governor's token, all the dragon guards in the capital will be mobilized to carefully check all parts of the capital. Anyone who has any suspicions will be captured. . Anyone who dares to resist will be killed without mercy!"
