Several monks who stayed in the temple were discussing in the hall, and Lin Yi and the others also began to whisper to each other in low voices.
"You can't be so fast, are you? Chasing our butts and biting us?"
"I don't know, maybe not. There are many businessmen from the south who believe in Buddhism. What if they are here for tourism."
"Fifth Brother, please!" Lin Yi slightly raised his hand towards Fifth Brother.
Fifth Brother immediately understood, put down his bowls and chopsticks, stood up, and gave Lin Yi and the others a look.
It means to be calm and let him inquire first.
Fifth Brother walked up to several masters and did not interrupt rashly. Instead, he stood aside and listened for a while.
The monk who knew the guest reported back that four more people came outside the door.
A big, burly man spoke with a local accent, and the remaining three people were all dressed as tourists, all with southern accents, and two of them still spoke Mandarin with a Cantonese accent.
As soon as the fifth brother heard this description, he knew that his brother, Boss Zhao, had taken people from the Southern Sect, went around in circles, and found them back here.
He opened his mouth and wanted to come to the temple to stay overnight, but the masters in the temple were also a little embarrassed.
There was a notice posted outside the door that the door would be closed for three days to thank guests. Lin Yi and the others were exceptions due to their special status.
But the identities of the guests from Xiangjiang outside the door are also very sensitive. Pujing Temple is not only a Buddhist resort, but also a tourist attraction. It would be somewhat rude to just turn away guests from afar.
"I heard that there are a lot of wild tour guides in the city recently. They take small groups and take clients to climb mountains. They still walk on small roads. If something happens, they can't even find anyone. It's very annoying.
These people don't stay in hotels at night, but insist on getting close to nature. Who knows what they will do in the middle of the night. If there is another accident, it will be difficult. "
Fifth brother leaned against the door frame, seemingly chatting, but in fact he was just making insinuations to these masters.
At first, these masters were still a little shaken, but now they heard the fifth brother's words and rejected them outright.
It is better to do less than to do more. No one wants to take the blame for others and take responsibility.
These distinguished guests who came from afar could not enter the mountain gate, and the responsibility was not on him.
If something unexpected happens while living here, as Fifth Brother said, they will definitely have nothing to do with it.
"Go and reply to the donors. Just tell them that the temple will be closed to visitors for the past few days and ask them to wait for two days before coming back."
Zhike Monk clasped his hands together and turned to reply.
Fifth brother also returned to his seat.
"How's it going? Did someone from the Southern Sect come to your door?"
Fifth Brother nodded.
He stretched out his hand to bring them together.
"Four are here, and one of them is our own brother."
"Four? Shouldn't there be five people?"
"If the Zhang family doesn't enter the temple, it should be the other three families, plus Fifth Brother's brothers. They came so quickly!"
"What should we do now? Should we still stay here, or should we find an excuse to leave? I feel like keeping people out all the time is not an option. They must find a way to get in."
Bai Lu's suggestion is not unreasonable.
Today we can use the late weather as an excuse, but what about tomorrow?
It's just a donation of incense. They are willing to spend money. Aren't these people from the Southern Sect not willing to spend money?
"It will definitely not work for us to leave immediately. The more hasty we leave, the more problems we will have. If they inquire with the temple and understand our itinerary, all our previous advantages will be in vain. Flowed.
Let's do this, divide the troops into two groups, and I will take away Lao Wang, the troublemaker, so as not to mess up the matter. When the masters ask about it, they will say that the wound on his arm is infected, and we will go directly to the big hospital in Rongcheng to check it out.
Fifth Brother, Lulu and Lao San stay here and pay attention to the Southern faction's actions. It is best to delay them for a few more days.
Let's keep in touch at any time. "
"Hey, Lao Lin, you have to speak with your conscience. When did I become a troublemaker again?" "
"Just because you just turned your original business of several million into a job of selling locks at a stall, is that enough of a reason?"
Lin Yi's words left Wang Qiang speechless.
"Okay, okay, you win, okay!"
After finishing their fast meal, they returned to the meditation room and carefully planned their tasks for the next two days.
Lin Yi and Wang Qiang returned to Pengshan tonight and contacted Chen Erwa as soon as possible.
He can be called the underwater living map of Jiangkou. Without his help, Lin Yi and Wang Qiang would only be blind.
The fifth brother, Bai Lu, Qian Sheng and Wukong will continue to stay in the temple to stabilize each other. It is best to find an opportunity to meet with the Nanpai and get some useful information from them. ,most.
If not, at least make sure that the information you have is not easily leaked.
Because the mechanisms underground have been taken care of by Lin Yi and the others.
If the people from the Southern Sect find the entrance, go down to explore, and then inquire about Lin Yi and the others' itinerary in the temple these days, it will not be difficult to judge their next plan.
Judging from the overall strength of both sides, the southern faction actually has the upper hand.
It's just that Lin Yi's ability is too outstanding, coupled with the careful teachings of Mr. Bai and Luo, and the care of Mr. Chen and Brother Wu, they got this precious opportunity to take the lead.
Lin Yi was quite optimistic before, but now it seems that it is imminent.
The countermeasures were discussed and implemented immediately.
The fifth brother has already heard that the four southerners were blocked outside the mountain gate. They should not be able to get in tonight. They should come again tomorrow morning to disturb them. It will be hard to say then.
Lin Yi and Wang Qiang took their equipment and left through the backyard door.
Qian Sheng and Bai Lu were specifically told to continue looking for useful clues and the rubbings, and try to extract as much information as possible from them.
After everything was explained, the two got in the car and drove all the way to Pengshan.
"Where do you think this old bastard hides these important treasures?"
Wang Qiang held the steering wheel, full of doubts.
In fact, Lin Yi had already had a goal in mind, which was the secret underground blue brick passage that Chen Erwa took him and Bai Lu to.
I thought it was outrageous to build such a sewer-like passage underwater.
Now it seems that this thing must have its existence value.
Otherwise, for such a wasteful project, the entrance is hidden in the river. It can't be for the purpose of exercising lung capacity, right?
The two places are more than 100 kilometers apart, and driving on mountain roads is Wang Qiang's strength. He returned to Pengshan in only two hours after a nearly three-hour journey.
The first thing I did after landing was to call Chen Erwa.
What a coincidence, this guy happened to be helping someone unload goods at the riverside pier.
The two of them drove directly to the dock. Lin Yi stepped forward and without saying a word, took out a wad of bills and stuffed them into the boat boss.
"Don't let him do this work for now. I'll ask him to help me with some other work. You can find three more people with this money."
The boss of the boat saw that it was Lin Yi and his two brothers, and knew that they were getting close to the fifth brother, so he pushed and shoved them.
Finally I accepted it.
Chen Erwa looked at Lin Yi and Wang Qiang in confusion.
"What are you doing here again?"
"What else can I do to you? I'm going to get in trouble!"
