While the second young master was pestering the monk Shikong, two figures flashed out in the Zen temple. The leader was the guard next to Xu Er, followed closely by Wu Xin'an. The hidden master dressed in the guard was named Zhan Liu'er. He had already figured out the way in the temple, and he took Wu Xin'an through the house, avoiding the monks coming and going, and headed straight to Shikong's Zen room.

Shi Kong's status in Linggu Temple was second only to that of the abbot of the presidency, so he had a separate courtyard and two little novice monks were serving him. At this time, the little novice monks had just eaten and were chanting scriptures in the room. The two of them climbed over the wall and quietly did not disturb them. Before they came to the main room, they gently pushed the door of the meditation room and opened. The two of them flashed in and closed the door again.

Zhan Liuer reached into his arms, took out a round bead from his arms, and smiled at Wu Xin'an,

"Miss Wu, you can't use oil lamps here, so use this instead!"

Wu Xinan saw that the bead was emitting a green light in the dark room, and asked quietly,

"Is this the Night Pearl?"

Zhan Liuer smiled,

"That's right, this was found in an ancient tomb when I was exploring the world in my early years!"

After saying that, he raised the beads and took photos. He saw that Shi Kong's Zen room was very simple. Apart from the room, a table and two stools, a clean bed, and a hard couch in front of the window, a futon was placed on it, and a wardrobe in the corner of the wall, and there was no other one!

When Wu Xinan saw it, she went to open the wardrobe. Zhan Liuer smiled and waved his hand.

"There is nothing in the cabinet, so the lady doesn't need to look for it?"

But he was the leader, and he took Wu Xinan to touch the room. He was a master who was good at hiding and hiding, and used special mechanism secret doors. He only needed to take a look at the things in the room and knew if there was any hidden place.

The places Zhan Liu'er was not something that ordinary people could think of, such as the pillars in the corner of the wall, the wall behind the door, the four feet of the bed, and the gap between the wardrobe and the wall. Some people could reach to reach, and some could not reach to reach, so they took out a thin thread from their arms, but they pulled out a piece, clamped it with two fingers, and stroked it outwards, and the thin thread immediately rose up, without any soft drop.

Wu Xinan couldn't help but be curious and took a few more glances. Zhan Liuer smiled at her,

"It made the eldest lady laugh, but it was just a piece of cloud silk, which was soft and hard, fire-resistant, and burn-resistant. It was a top-notch product for us to do our business!"

After saying that, he stretched the thin thread into the gap, gently hooked it, and pulled it out. Seeing that nothing was discovered, he pulled it back again.

After checking around like this, Wu Xinan thought this trip was in vain and had no gains. However, he suddenly turned to the couch by the window, stretched out his hands and raised his cushion to look down, squatted down and groped for a while, and suddenly turned around and said softly,

"Have it!"

Wu Xinan was excited when he heard this. He didn't know how he reached in and fumbled inside, but he heard a click and something was opened...

Wu Xin'an looked around and saw no changes, but Zhan Liu'er got up and came to the pillar in the corner of the wall, and then reached out to grop on it for a while.

"Click..."

The bed where Monk Shikong slept slowly turned inward, revealing a hole.

"Hehe! No wonder the old monk didn't go out all day long. It turned out that there was a secret thought here!"

Zhan Liuer leaned over and looked at it. He saw a wooden ladder extending downwards. He stretched his body and then fell lightly onto the ladder. Then he turned to Wu Xin'an.

"When the young lady came down, I walked with my footprints. Don't go wrong with each step!"

Wu Xinan came over as she said, and she stood carefully on Zhan Liu'er's footprints. Seeing that he didn't know what he had touched on the wooden ladder beside him, the bed above her head turned back. Wu Xinan asked quietly,

"Why do you have to walk on your footprints? Could it be that there is no mechanism?"

Zhan Liuer smiled and pointed at the footprints on the stairs.

"How can there be so many secret doors in this world? There is no need to be so troublesome. Do you see this footprint?"

Wu Xin'an looked down and saw that the wooden staircase was very dark, but there was a row of clear footprints all the way down. Zhan Liuer said,

"The monk was very smart. He spread cigarettes on this wooden ladder. On weekdays, he would only walk on his own footprints. Whenever someone who didn't know the details came in and stepped on the place next to him, he would lose his flaws!"

Wu Xinan said when he heard this,

"This monk is so cunning!"

Zhan Liuer smiled,

"This is a common trick for the people in the world. The young lady is not one of us, so I don't know these!"

This room led Wu Xin'an all the way down to the sixteen steps, and then stepped on the ground. Zhan Liu'er went to the front to inspect and came back,

"This is a straight tunnel, which is obviously leading to the outside of the temple. There are three inconspicuous arrangements in front of it, all of which are to prevent outsiders from entering. The young lady just followed me!"

After walking about ten steps, he walked around a very thin golden wire. Zhan Liuer turned around and pointed to the golden wire.

"There is a gong connected to it. If you accidentally kick it, you will start to alarm the two little novice monks..."

After walking for about twenty steps, he was short and avoided the copper bell hanging on the top of his head. There was a deep pit with thin plates on the ground. Finally, he reached the exit where there was a secret door. Zhan Liuer reached out and fumbled, pressed the mechanism, and opened the door.

The two of them looked at each other and saw that they had arrived at a courtyard outside. Zhan Liuer smiled and said,

"Hehe... This monk turned out to be a monk in flower. He was eating vegetarian food and chanting Buddha's name on the surface, but he even came to a golden house to hide his charms behind his back. Hehe... I don't know why the woman was willing to follow the old monk!"

After saying that, he led the way first and went out. Wu Xin'an followed closely behind and saw that the yard was not big, with the main room and the left and right side rooms. Only two lights were on. Someone took the plate and walked out of the stove next to him. The two hid in the dark and looked at it. Zhan Liuer couldn't help but chuckled and whispered,

"This monk has a good appetite, and he can even breathe such an old man!"

The one who walked out of the kitchen was an old woman in her fifties and sixties. The old woman pushed the door and entered another side room. The two of them waited for a while and heard someone talking inside.

"Madam, you should eat something. You only sip a few sips of water in this day. How can you stand it after the long life?"

Someone responded,

"You... let me go back. If you don't let me go back, I would rather starve to death!"

The person who spoke in front responded,

"If you go back, the old slave will suffer. The lady doesn't know the master's methods, but the old slave knows it. She also begs her not to make things difficult for Lao slave, just use a bite of rice!"

"No...no, don't, tell the monk. I have never seen what he asked me before, nor do I know that even if he has been imprisoned forever, I have not. Why... he will simply kill me!"

...

Wu Xin'an and Zhan Liu'er heard it very clearly outside. Among the two people who spoke, except for the old woman, wasn't the other one who was his cousin Chu?

Thinking of this, he leaned forward with Zhan Liuer and pressed his ear against the window, and heard Chu Shi say inside,

"I really don't know what he was talking about. I just said that I didn't have that. My parents' family and husband's family didn't have that thing. Why didn't he believe it?"

Another woman inside said,

"You told me about these things to the old slave, but you would just have a few bites of food. When the master comes back, you will tell him!"

"Take it away! I won't eat it!"

Chu shouted, the woman answered,

"Madam, don't do this. If you really don't want toast, don't blame me for giving you a drink!"

As he spoke, hesitated and said, Wu Xinan leaned over and poked a small hole in the window paper. Seeing that Chu was lying softly on the bed in the room, an old woman was stuffing something into her mouth with a spoon...

Wu Xinan retracted his head, rolled his eyes and thought for a while before pulling Zhan Liuer to the side and asked,

"Is there a way for God to faint without knowing the man?"

Zhan Liuer replied with a smile,

"Miss, did she make her ignorant in advance and not notice afterwards?"

Wu Xinan nodded,

"That's exactly what it means!"

"This is easy, I just have to wait a moment before the woman comes out!"

The two of them were waiting in the yard, but after waiting for a stick of incense, the woman came out of the house and cursed,

"I'm really a slut who doesn't know how to live or die. I'm going to be on a hunger strike all day long. I'm going to serve you so late. If the master hadn't given an order, I wouldn't bother to come over and ask about it tomorrow!"

After scolding, she saw her throwing the bowl and chopsticks into the stove, patted her hands and twisted her thick waist, and entered another side room. Zhan Liuer smiled when she saw this, but then went over and put her body on the door of the room. She didn't know what she had done, but she came back to report it soon.

"Miss is done!"

Wu Xinan nodded and then led Zhan Liu'er to open the door and entered Chu's house.

"My cousin, I haven't seen you for a few days, how are you?"

Wu Xinan appeared in front of Chu with a smile. When Chu saw her, she seemed to be in a dream, she was soft and slumped there. She only stared at her eyes so hard that she almost jumped out of her eyes. She bit her tongue hard, and screamed in pain, and then she trembled her lips for a while.

"You...you...wu Xin'an...it turned out...it turned out...it turned out that it was you...it turned out that it was you who harmed me!"

Wu Xinan said coldly when he heard this,

"What did my cousin's wife say? It turned out that I was hurting you. I only found this place tonight!"

Chu said with a glaring eyes,

"You...didn't you colluding with the monk to harm me?"

Wu Xinan rolled his eyes and snorted,

"What are you doing to make me hurt? If you have money, I will ask my cousin for it!"
