Zhiti Mountain stretches for 25 kilometers and is more than 800 meters above sea level. It has 99 peaks and 36 caves. There are four main peaks: Dazhong, Huading, Lion and Shuangji. The peaks and rocks are unique and the caves and ravines are exquisite.
There are places of interest such as Stone Chessboard, Horin Cave, Dharma Platform, Narayan Temple and Golden Lantern Temple. Zhiti Temple is located at the foot of Shuangji Peak. There is an imperial plaque on the mountain gate saying "The No. 1 Mountain in the World". It was once known as a famous Buddhist mountain together with Mount Wutai, Mount Emei, Mount Putuo and Mount Jiuhua.
Li Mo looked at Zhiti Mountain in the sunshine. Judging from the simple yellowed road map, the place where there might be treasures was entered through a mountain road in front of Zhiti Temple.
"Boss, everything is ready. Do you want to go into the mountain now?"
Brown Bear brought twenty strong security guards, each of whom carried a bag. In addition to the commonly used food and drink, there were also special tools.
"Strict situation, let's go."
"Okay, let's go."
Yan Qijun now has a deeper understanding of Li Mo. In the past, he had heard his old classmate, Professor Zhang from Qingdao University, say it several times, but he didn't have a deep idea of his abilities in his mind. Until last night and just now, Li Mo's talent and his ability to identify treasures completely impressed him.
A group of people started climbing. On the way, they also met people climbing in groups of twos and threes. They took photos from time to time and even sent friends.
"Yan Ju, I heard that this Double Bun Peak has not been fully developed yet. Currently, only the southern half of Chaoyang Mountain has been developed. There is no trail to the back of the mountain, right?"
"Originally, this place was just a small place, and the economic development was slow. The official did not have that much budget. Only after the concept of Jianwen Emperor Culture was launched more than ten years ago did some big investors come to develop it. But you also know that development The investment for a mountain is not low, and the return risks must also be taken into consideration. But Associate Professor Li has really solved the mystery of Emperor Jianwen’s life and death. I think as long as the news spreads, many big investors will come over to continue the development.”
Li Mo knew it well. From what he saw on the route map, he had to climb over the Double Bun Peak at his feet. There would be new discoveries on the other side of the mountain near the valley.
Considering Yan Qijun's age, Li Mo stopped and walked, adding some water and snacks from time to time.
"I'm really old. I can't breathe even before I reach the top of the mountain."
"The main reason is that Yan Ju is usually too busy and has no time to exercise. After he retires, he can strengthen his exercise. Then he will be able to climb to the top of the mountain in one go."
"Hahaha, I hope that day comes soon. Associate Professor Li, let's continue climbing."
When everyone reached the mountainside of Shuangji Peak, Yan Qijun no longer had the physical strength to continue moving forward. Several staff members he brought over were also out of breath. They had not climbed the mountain for several years, and they really couldn't persevere to the end of this rare climb.
"Strict situation, why don't you guys rest here for a while first, and I will lead a group of people to continue climbing." Li Mo saw the obvious look of exhaustion on his face, and thought to himself, it can't go on like this, what if he accidentally does it? If something goes wrong, it will be more than worth the loss.
"Sorry, I'm holding you back. Associate Professor Li, you go up first, I'll rest for a while, and then I'll follow you."
Li Mo winked at a security guard and said, "Leave a few people here to take care of them, and the rest will move on." …
"Yes, boss."
For the rest of the journey, Li Mo and the others were obviously much faster. Each of them has gone through countless trainings, and this kind of mountain climbing is a piece of cake for them.
At about 11:30 in the morning, Li Mo and others finally reached the top of the mountain. The official built six octagonal pavilions here, with stone tables and chairs inside, but at this time the mountain wind was blowing and the chill was very strong.
"Brown Bear, look at the back to see if there is a path down the mountain?"
Li Mo gave an order, then stood in an octagonal pavilion and looked down. With his eyesight, he could clearly see the situation within a hundred meters, but the situation was very bad. The other side of Double Bun Peak was almost a cliff, let alone a cliff. There are very few trees and bushes on the way down the mountain, so there is no way to go down from here.
"Is there an error in the road map?"
Li Mo took out the yellowed picture from his pocket again. He compared it carefully, and then looked at the surrounding terrain. The direction was correct, but there was a problem with the route into the mountain. I came here along the artificial mountain road, and judging from the route map, it seemed to be a roundabout way to the other side of Shuangji Peak.
"Boss, there is no path down the mountain. It is almost a steep wall and there are few points of strength."
Li Mo put away the route map, thought for a moment and said, "Let everyone eat something, take a rest and go down the mountain along the same route."
"Then what do we do next?"
"There is something wrong with the route map. We may have chosen the wrong route into the mountain. We should have entered the mountain through another entrance before arriving at the back of Shuangji Peak, where we accidentally discovered a treasure. Let's go back to the foot of the mountain first and then think of a solution. , see if we can call in a helicopter to jump over directly."
"This is a good idea."
Replenishing some energy, everyone returned the same way. Halfway up the mountain, he met up with Yan Ju and others. They haven't come back to their senses even after resting, so they simply stay where they are and wait.
"Associate Professor Li, how is the situation?"
"There is a steep cliff on the back of Doublehead Peak, and there is no way to reach the bottom of the valley."
"What should we do? The surrounding valleys are covered with dense bushes, and there is no route into the mountains."
Yan Qijun looked anxious. He was about to reach the age where he could take a back seat. If he could solve the mystery of Emperor Jianwen's life and death beforehand, he would have no regrets in his life.
"Strict situation, don't worry, I have other plans. Besides, even if this matter is urgent, it won't be in a day or two. Let's go down the mountain to rest first."
The security guards helped Yan Qijun slowly walk down the mountain.
After finally returning to the parking lot at the front gate of Zhiti Temple, Yan Qijun and several staff members sat down on the stone benches quite tiredly, drinking water and gently beating their legs.
"Associate Professor Li, I'm going to make you laugh. This old bone is really not strong enough."
"Strict situation, it's already past three o'clock in the afternoon. There is no way to go into the mountain today. I might as well think of a way tomorrow. You just sit outside the mountain. If I need anything, you can coordinate outside."
At this time, a staff member of the local cultural protection bureau hurriedly walked out of the Zhiti courtyard. He trotted up to Yan Qijun and said happily: "Yan Bureau, I found it. I found the specific origin record of that dragon robe and cassock."
This was good news. Yan Qijun immediately stood up and said, "Associate Professor Li, let's go in and take a look."
"Walk."
In the courtyard of Zhiti Temple, Yan Qijun looked at the contents of an ancient book carefully, and after a while he said: "Associate Professor Li, please also read this record."
Li Mo took the ancient book that was not well protected, and was really worried that it would be destroyed if he put a little effort on it. However, the content recorded above surprised him. This ancient book was "Zhiti Temple Illustrated Volume 3". It recorded that in history, during the Song and Ming dynasties, three emperors had given cassocks to the eminent monks of Zhiti Temple. .
The first one was Emperor Taizong of the Song Dynasty. In the first year of Chunhua, he was given the title of successor to the abbot, Zen Master Bianlong. The second one was Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty. In the fifth year of Yongle, he was granted the abbot Zhongxing Wuzhen Zen Master. The third one is Ming Shenzong, who gave the abbot Zhongxing Daqian a "golden crown, yellow umbrella, purple clothes and royal staff" in the 18th year of Wanli.
Later, the Empress Dowager granted him the "Four Strikes of Purple Clothes" in the 21st year of Wanli.
But after hundreds of years, only one dragon robe and cassock has been preserved.
