The door slammed shut behind him, Su Jin's eyes were black, and he couldn't see anything for a while, and after a while, he slowly regained his eyesight, and only then could he see the situation inside clearly by the light projected through the crack in the door.

Su Jin raised his eyes, startled, facing a Buddha statue about five or six feet high sitting on the lotus platform, holding the magic with both hands and looking at himself with a gloomy smile, in the dim light, people stood in this cramped hut, in front of them was a big Buddha condescending, giving people a creepy sense of oppression.

Although he knew that this was just a clay wooden tire, Su Jin still bowed twice, and muttered: "Amitabha, Amitabha, Buddha bless, there will be offense today, don't blame, he will come to worship incense one day." ”

Su Jin looked around, and found that there was a small place separated by a screen next to it, and when he looked at it, there was a small bed in the screen, and the plain white bedding and wooden pillows on it were complete, presumably sleeping here during the retreat.

Su Jin breathed a sigh of relief, sat on the futon in front of the Buddha statue, reached out and took out two soft cloths from his arms, picked up the teapot from the incense case in front of him and shook it, heard the sound of clanging water, so he opened the lid of the pot, stuffed the cloth strips into the pot and soaked it, rolled it into the nostrils, and then got up and climbed on the incense case, stood on tiptoe and looked at the Buddha statue face to face, then carefully removed the cloth curtain on the side of the Buddha statue, stepped on the root of the Buddha statue's thighs, turned around and moved to the back of the Buddha statue against the gap between the Buddha statue and the wall.

Behind the Buddha statue, there was another uncolored earthy yellow place, Su Jin knew that it was the hollow entrance, and with a gentle push behind him, it turned out to be just an earthy yellow curtain.

Su Jin tried, this hole is too small, and his head can't get in, this time it's a hurry, Shanxiang didn't know that this hole was only the size of a big tea bowl, and the old monk was simply joking with himself.

Su Jin thought for a while and said, "Offended!" "Stretched out his hand to grasp the edge of the hole, and broke it hard, and listened to the 'hula, sparse noise', a burst of dust, holding two large pieces of soil in his hand, and then looking at the hole, it has become extremely irregular, a big crack is about to spread to the ribs of the Buddha statue, the soil keeps falling, and suddenly he is scared to sweat profusely, and he is busy standing still.

With the dust all gone, Su Jin was already covered with dust, and then carefully tried the hole, and found that it was much bigger, but fortunately his body was thin, if he was a fat man, he would be completely finished today, this Buddha statue can not withstand digging out his intestines and belly again, and if he comes again, he is afraid that it will collapse completely.

Su Jin shrank his head and shoulders into the belly of the Buddha statue, his feet were hollow, and he had no strength, so he had to cross his feet on the concave and convex places on both sides, move slowly, and finally found a large protruding part, where to put his buttocks, which was considered to be more comfortable, put down his feet, and made a rustling sound under his feet, like the sound of paper, and reached out to touch it, it turned out that the belly of the Buddha statue was full of books.

Pick up a book, come in front of your eyes to identify carefully, only to see that the cover of the book is handwritten red "Lengyan Sutra" three big characters, open the book, it is densely packed with blood-red small characters written in small letters, Su Jin pulled out the occlusion, wanted to breathe, the scriptures in his hand emitted a bloody breath, and the Chinese wanted to vomit; Su Jin was so frightened that he hurriedly reached out and threw it down, patted his chest and panted, a wisp of bloody breath lingered around his nose, and quickly stuffed two wet cloth balls into his nostrils.

These are all scriptures that I don't know which devout believer copied with blood and ink, when the Buddha statue is opened, all of them are stuffed into the stomach, no wonder everyone wants to worship the Buddha, there are so many scriptures in the stomach, of course, everything knows everything.

Just as he was thinking wildly, he heard the sound of footsteps outside the door, and the voice of Shanxiang came: "Puji, this is here, this is the place where the retreat of the past generations has been held, and the old man will open the door for you." ”

Su Jin was stunned for a moment, secretly screaming bad luck, this old man didn't say that this is the place where the old monks died, no wonder it is eerie and terrifying, and the outside seems to be two worlds, it seems that this old monk is not a fuel-efficient lamp, he talks about half and half of it, he says that the Buddha statue is hollow, but he doesn't say that he can't enter the cave, he said that this is a place of retreat, but he doesn't say that this is also a dead man's house where many monks died, in short, it's not honest, it's big dishonest.

The door lock clicked, the door was pushed open, and two footsteps, one light and one heavy, walked in, and suddenly the footsteps stopped, and Feng Laohu's voice was heard: "Here...... How is this a picture? It's all dust, you see, and there's a lot of gray stone. ”

Shanxiang was dumbfounded, and suddenly remembered that the hole on the back of the Buddha statue was too small, and the kid must have forcibly broken the back of the Buddha statue and got into it, which made a mess, Shanxiang gritted his teeth and wanted to rush over to pull this kid out of the belly of the Buddha statue.

"Master, what's wrong with you?" Feng Jingyao asked strangely.

Shanxiang came back to his senses and said busily: "It's okay, it's okay, hey, it's in disrepair, the roof is littered, once a cat and mouse pass by on the roof, they will fall down the gray stone, the old man is incompetent, let my Buddha suffer from the mud stain, sin, sin." ”

Feng Jingyao said in his heart: "Your mother's crying poverty again, do you plan to knock on the master again?" "I made up my mind not to speak.

Su Jin knew that Shanxiang was scolding himself for being a cat and mouse around the bend, and said in his heart: Who called you an old thing without thinking about it, I didn't collapse this Buddha statue is your creation.

Shanxiang used the sleeve of his robe to remove the dust from the incense case, put the incense and candle offerings he brought one by one, turned around and said, "Puji, don't you really need to be present for the teacher?" ”

Feng Jingyao said: "Of course not, you can go." ”

Shanxiang said: "First light the candle, and then enter the three pillars of incense, and then you can start, every confession, you need to kowtow to the incense, until the Buddha has a spiritual revelation, and it is done." ”

Feng Jingyao said: "What spiritual revelation? How do I know what he has inspired me? ”

Shanxiang thought for a while and said: "The spiritual revelations are strange, and the master doesn't know what the spiritual revelations will be, or abnormal sounds, or strange incense, or the tears of the Buddha statues, or the sighs of the Buddha statues, all of them are spiritual revelations, you pay attention to them." ”

Feng Jingyao said: "Then if there is no spiritual revelation, what about the bento?" Am I staying here all the time? ”

Shanxiang said: "There must be, unless you have something to hide, you don't have to tell the Buddha everything, for example, you eat and drink meat, which is also a sin, but you don't have to tell the Buddha, just say that you are personally worried or afraid or regret the things." ”

Feng Jingyao said helplessly: "Okay, I'll try." ”

Su Jin secretly picked his big finger, Shanxiang was covering for himself, what Buddha would have a strange sound and fragrance, it was clearly afraid that he would make a sound to arouse suspicion, or the fragrance of those few incense sticks was different, which was noticed by Feng Jingyao, Su Jin suddenly understood the cleverness of Shanxiang, Feng Jingyao is an old Jianghu, and his own indiscriminate means are afraid of pediatrics in front of Feng Jingyao, and his nose is afraid to smell it when the incense starts, if he doesn't use the fragrance as a foreshadowing, Feng Jingyao is afraid that he will immediately notice it, only preconceived, Paralyzing his vigilance is the only way to have an effect.

Jiang is still old and spicy, this old monk looks kind, and he is quite greedy for money, but in fact he is quite calculating, Su Jin even suspected that he knew who Feng Jingyao was, but deliberately pretended not to know, accepted him as an apprentice, in exchange for a large sum of money, repaired the temple, and improved his livelihood.

"Amitabha, the old man is gone, you can do it yourself." Good and auspicious pun.

"Master, go slowly, and if there is a spirit for me, I will tell you."

"It's okay, the old man is resting in the meditation room in front, if there is a spiritual revelation, you can send the novice to plant vegetables in the garden and call the old man."

Shanxiang walked out slowly, squeaked the wooden door up, and the footsteps went away, and the house was suddenly silent.

Feng Jingyao quickly turned around the room, behind the screen, checked the bed up and down, and looked around the crack in the door to make sure that there was no one else around the stone house, so he came to the Buddha statue with confidence, frowned and looked at the Buddha statue for a long time, sighed, reached out and picked up the candle and lit it, and inserted it on the candlestick one by one.

Su Jin listened to Feng Jingyao's footsteps in the belly of the Buddha statue and walked around, knowing that he was checking the environment, until he heard the flint clicking, then he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, if Feng Jingyao was more careful, and opened the curtains on both sides of the Buddha statue to check, he would definitely be able to see the big hole that was broken open at a glance, Su Jin was still like a frightened ostrich butt with most of it exposed, sitting on the edge of the hole.

"Amitabha, good, good, Buddha, by the disciple Puji worship."

Feng Laohu climbed on the futon to give the Buddha statue three bows, inserted the three incense sticks in his hand into the incense burner, turned around and sat on the futon, he didn't know how to speak for a while, he was silent for a long time, and finally sighed and suppressed his voice and said softly: "Disciple Puji, whose common name is Feng Jingyao, has no choice but today, I beg the Buddha to have mercy and save the disciple from suffering." ”

After a pause, Feng Laohu continued: "Since you want to sincerely repent with my Buddha, then the disciple will start from the beginning, so as not to omit and make the Buddha mistakenly think that the disciple is concealing." ”

Su Jin pricked up his ears, didn't dare to come out, and listened carefully.
