Lin Yan knew before that Xiaohui was kidnapped and what kind of candidate she became.
"Mingfei". Now it seems that she is not the only candidate. After continuing to listen, Lin Yan probably knew what was going on!
To put it bluntly, these monks from the Huanxi Sect conducted a selection with the purpose of choosing a concubine for Prince Ming.
For this matter, almost all the young women in the city were forcibly abducted. Although people were extremely disgusted with what they did, they dared not speak out.
This is how people are, no matter what the circumstances, they are particularly able to adapt to the environment. This kind of adaptability is good in most cases, but sometimes it is not good.
It is precisely because of this ability to adapt to the environment that these ordinary people dare not rise up to resist when faced with oppression, but choose to endure it silently. It is this powerlessness that makes the perpetrators more rampant!
Not everyone chose to remain silent, at least the relatives of the abducted girls could not stand idly by.
But within the sphere of influence of the Huanxi Sect, their resistance was like fireflies at night, unable to dispel the boundless darkness.
But most people have nothing to do with themselves and just hang up. To put it nicely, it’s called
"Protect oneself wisely", that's not a nice thing to say.
"Sit on the sidelines". But there is no way, this is the truest manifestation of people in the world. As long as their own interests are not threatened, these people will just bury their heads and live their lives as usual, regardless of what injustice is happening outside.
Lin Yan had already gleaned all the information while he was eating, but he had to wait until he visited the Huanxi Sect to make a decision on how to implement the plan.
You can't completely believe what these people of three religions and nine schools say. Where dragons and snakes are mixed, you still need to distinguish the truth from the false.
After eating and drinking, Lin Yan called the waiter to pay. The latter was also very happy, and came over in a hurry, thinking that he had served this young man well just now, and he might get a reward or something.
As I thought about it, the corners of my mouth turned up involuntarily. Lin Yan looked at the guy's expression and thought strangely:
"Isn't it just to settle the account? Are you so happy? Is it possible that you are afraid that I will be a freeloader without paying?" After thinking for a moment, Lin Yan didn't pay much attention and asked:
"How much silver?" When he arrived at this place and ordered a large table of dishes, he knew that it couldn't be solved with just a few copper coins. Fortunately, he also brought some silver with him, and there was still some left after giving it to the old man before.
The guy rubbed his hands and said with a smile:
"Sir, the total is five taels of silver!" Lin Yan couldn't help being a little surprised when he heard this. What he ordered were all common meats. They were not luxuries such as abalone and lobster. Unexpectedly, the price was so high. Fei.
These things wouldn't be much more expensive in Chang'an, let alone in a small city close to the border like Bei Mo.
But when he thought about the harsh environment here and the Buddhist sect, it was not easy to get some meat, so Lin Yan accepted it!
Even so, he still felt a little sore. After all, he was not the second generation ancestor, but had come from the bottom step by step.
In Chang'an
In "Xu Ji", Lin Yan was also able to get a lot of money, but this did not make him arrogant and arrogant, and he never squandered it.
Overall, he is quite frugal! It seems that this is the first time that one person has eaten so many silver coins this time!
Lin Yan reluctantly handed the silver to the clerk, who did not leave immediately, but looked at him eagerly.
Lin Yan was very strange and said in her heart:
"I've already paid, why is this guy still standing here in a daze?" Then he stopped looking at the waiter, turned around and walked out of the store. After all, he still had business to do!
The waiter looked in disbelief. He couldn't believe that Lin Yan just left like this? I've served so well that I can't bear to give you even a small amount of money as a reward. Are you so stingy?
He also understood at this moment that Lin Yan was not the rich man he imagined at all, but a poor boy. He had been mistaken before.
"Poor guy!" the guy muttered in a low voice, and then went to the waiting room. He had wasted so much time on this guy, so he had to make up for it quickly!
...After leaving the restaurant, Lin Yan did not stop and walked towards the location of the Huanxi Sect. As for the location of its sect, it doesn't take much effort to find out, because looking up, there is a magnificent pagoda standing in the most central and prosperous place in the city, and the answer is self-evident!
Moreover, there are many monks in the city. Most of them are fat and big-eared, and they are obviously very nutritious. These people are like lords on patrol on the street, they are very arrogant and domineering, and some of the second generation ancestors in Chang'an City are far behind!
When the people around them saw them, it was as if they saw something unclean, and they were afraid to hide away. These people were very satisfied with the effect and smiled wildly.
They picked up whatever they liked and walked away, and no one dared to take their money. Lin Yan shook his head and thought to himself, is this also called a monk?
I don’t know how many things I have committed by being greedy, angry, and foolish! Following them, Lin Yan quickly found the location of the Huanxi Sect.
This is a huge Buddhist temple complex built around the tall pagoda. The red walls and golden glazed tiles are all luxurious!
The guards at the door were very lax, presumably thinking that no one would dare to cause trouble here, so Lin Yan restrained himself and sneaked in secretly.
It would be difficult to find a kidnapped woman in such a large building complex!
Fortunately, at this time, two monks came and provided clues.
"These new ones are so disobedient and have no 'Buddha nature'!"
"That's it, just starve for a few days and you'll be fine!"
"Well, if you train well, you might be rewarded by a great virtue."
"It's true. Senior Brother Zhan Jie trained a good young talent before and fell into the eyes of the great master. Now his status has risen, which makes me very envious! I heard that the girl has become a candidate for the concubine. When will it really happen? After becoming Ming Fei, Senior Brother Zhan Jie will probably get even more benefits!"
"Why don't we have such good luck?"
"Don't be discouraged. Train her well and use some tricks. I don't believe you can find someone who is qualified to be a candidate for the imperial concubine!"
"You're right, encourage each other! Encourage each other!"
"..." Listening to the conversation between the two, Lin Yan knew that the kidnapped woman should be nearby. After roughly judging the strength of the two, Lin Yan decided to take action.
There was a flash of black shadow, and Lin Yan took action boldly, appearing directly behind a monk.
His neck was broken with a "click". This monk's strength was only at the early stage of the Tongmai Realm, and compared to Lin Yan, he was as good as an ant.
The remaining monk had not recovered from the shock before him, and was about to shout loudly when Lin Yan's knife was already placed on his neck.
The cold touch made him wake up instantly, a layer of fine goose bumps appeared on his neck, and he stopped shouting.
"Very good, a smart decision!" Lin Yan said coldly.
"Who are you? How did you get in?" The monk forced himself to calm down and asked. Lin Yan brought the knife closer to let the other party understand who had the right to speak at this time, and then said:
"Now it's my turn to ask you! Tell me, where are the women you kidnapped?" The monk's neck had been scratched with a bloody mark by a sharp black knife. He had no doubt that as long as Lin Yan exerted his strength, He would lose his head and body, so he didn't dare to gamble, let alone act rashly!
The monk could only say honestly:
"In the dungeon below the 'Jingxin Hall'." Lin Yan said in a deep voice:
"Take me there!" The monk nodded in agreement, and was about to leave, but was stopped by Lin Yan.
"Wait! Hide this guy first!" Lin Yan was naturally referring to the dead body just now. If he left it here, it would be discovered soon, and his traces would be exposed.
The monk is also obedient, but the key is not to listen. The knife is held on his neck! He dragged his companion's body into a Buddhist hall next to him and hid the body and the Buddha statue in order to avoid following in his companion's footsteps.
Naturally, the Buddha enshrined in this Buddhist hall is also the Buddha of Joy. King Ming, who represents the male body, and Concubine Ming, who represents the female body, hug each other tightly face to face. The posture is extremely inelegant. If Lin Yan hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Lin Yan wouldn't believe that the Buddha would actually There are factions that worship such things!
He was still young and had never experienced these things, but now that he saw it with his own eyes, he couldn't help but blush.
Fortunately, he was covered with a black scarf when he appeared just now, and the monk was concentrating on handling the corpse of his companion, so no one noticed him.
Otherwise, the deterrent effect will be greatly reduced! After dealing with all this, Lin Yan didn't want to stay in this Buddhist hall for a moment. Staying for a moment longer would stain his eyes.
Under Lin Yan's threat, the monk had no choice but to take Lin Yan there.
The location of the "Hall of Meditation". At this moment, Lin Yan had put away his knife. After all, if he wanted to sneak in, it would be too blatant.
He was not worried that the monk would scream loudly, because at such a close distance, he could kill the monk before he could speak.
The monk obviously understood this and led the way like a good baby.
After going around and around several corners, Lin Yan arrived safely.
Outside the "Tranquility Hall". I met a few monks earlier, but luckily I was able to deal with them. The ones enshrined in the temple are also
The Dharma image of "Happy Buddha" is probably the same thing in this sect. There is no way, who let this be their original Buddha!
The monk walked into the hall and fumbled for a few times at the base of the Buddha statue. Then with a loud noise, the Buddha statue slowly shifted, revealing a dark hole.
There is a cave under the Buddha statue, and these people really have ideas! As the monk lit a torch to illuminate the way forward, a staircase extended underground. As far as the eye could see, only a short distance could be seen. Most of the stairs were hidden in the darkness.
The dark cave entrance is like a hidden giant beast, waiting to choose someone to devour! Lin Yan cheered up and followed the monk into the underground. The Buddha statue behind him moved slowly and blocked the entrance of the cave again. The Dharma was solemn and chaotic...
