In addition to Chen Jie and Zuo Xiangdong in the meditation room, there is another person, she is one of the owners of the meditation room, Master Ning He, she is like a wooden chicken, standing at the door of the meditation room with a pale face. She never dreamed that there would be an entrance to a secret passage in her meditation room.

Ouyang Ping patted the dirt on his body: "Old Chen, left to east, you can go to the dining hall or the quiet courtyard now—now is the time to invite Abbot Huijue." ”

"Ouyang, after taking Abbot Huijue under control, where are we going to lock her up?"

"Shut up in her own meditation room."

"Handcuffs or not?"

"Handcuffs, be careful, she seems to be good at martial arts. The two of you watched her in the Quiet Courtyard. There must be an entrance to a secret passage in Huijue's meditation room, you two pay attention to the sound, we knock a few times, you knock a few times, after determining the specific location, knock four times - three times. ”

Chen Jie and Zuo Xiangdong took the order; Ouyang Ping and Liu Dayu returned to the secret passage.

After two people entered the dark road, a group of seven people returned to the three-way intersection, and then walked eastward, after walking more than 20 steps, there was a T-shaped fork, one dark road continued to the east, and the other dark road went south.

The group headed south. After walking about a dozen steps, four stone steps appeared in front of him - this kind of four-level stone steps, everyone has seen it three times, and the entrances of the first two dark passages are all four-level stone steps. Even the stone steps are the same length, width and height.

Master Chen is worthy of being a craftsman who has dealt with the temple for decades, and his sense of direction is very strong: "Captain Ouyang, this secret path should be under the Jingwu Palace. ”

"Ouyang, this place should be below the statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva." Liu Dayu said.

"I'll go up and have a look." Master Yan said.

"My master and ancestors have been begging for a living in the monastery for three generations." Master Chen said, his implication was that Master Yan was more familiar with the general secret path organs.

Ouyang Ping handed the flashlight to Master Yan: "Master Yan, be careful. ”

"It's fine." Master Yan said. On one side of the stone steps, the old man was very agile and very quick.

Yan Jianhua held the emergency light high.

There was a square stone slab above Master Yan's head, with a side length of about sixty centimeters.

Master Yan tapped the slate with his fingers, and then turned the light of the flashlight twice under the slate - very slowly.

The frame under the slab is made of stones, about forty-five centimeters in length and thirty centimeters in width -- the other end of the stone is inlaid in the wall -- the stones are of exactly the same size, except that between the stones there is a long stone about twenty-five centimeters high and five centimeters wide. Ouyang Ping counted it, and there were a total of eight long stones. There is a square hole above and below each long stone.

"One of the eight long stones is the mechanism that opens this stone slab." Master Yan looked at Ouyang Ping and said, "In the twenty-first year of the Republic of China, when my father and I were working in Qixia Temple, we had also seen this kind of organ. My grandfather and father pondered this all their lives. ”

Master Yan said as he put the handle of the hammer into the square hole under the long stone, and then pushed it upward. This is repeated, and when the fifth stone is pushed, the stone slowly moves upwards, and the slab above the square hole moves eastward.
