Chapter 83: The Exotic Buddhist Country
I often have hallucinations recently and now I faint again. He Zhi feels that it should be the sequelae of being thrown into the lake and hitting my head by Ge Minghao last time. She didn't think deeply, but Ke Yang had to think about it. Recalling the first detail just now, he felt that there must be something wrong with his hand. When his hand held He Zhi's hand, he could feel the trembling coming from He Zhi.
Ke Yang stared at the slightly shining black dots in his palm for a long time, not knowing whether he should go to the hospital to find a doctor to help him get rid of the surgery. He believed that physical science and life science would never be confused by gods, demons and monsters.
The phone sent a new message to remind me. When I clicked on the photo sent by my sister Ke Xing, Ke Yang couldn't help but stand up.
The photo shows a piece of burnt black soil, which roughly shows that it was once a large courtyard.
"The Huang Banxian family caught fire and burned for a while and just put out the fire. Strangely, the Huang Banxian family was filled with fire at the sky, but the peach tree behind the yard did not catch fire. Many villagers said that the peach tree was a sacred tree, and they all ran in to rush to cut down the branches. I also cut one of the peach branches back, hoping to eliminate disasters and ward off evil spirits."
Seeing Ke Xing's message, Ke Yang estimated that the time when Huang Banxian's house caught fire was shortly after he left.
"Your sister also went to the fire to grab peach branches? It's not worry-free for a person who is so big. If peach branches can eliminate disasters and ward off evil spirits, Huang Banxian would have to die!"
Old Mrs. Ke was afraid that He Zhi would laugh at her daughter for feudal superstition, so she quickly proved her innocence.
At this time, Xiao Nan sent a message, and the tin box forensic department brought back that Ke Yang had worked overtime and tested the results.
There is a plaque inside the tin box. From the pattern on the amulet, it can be judged that the origin is from Southeast Asia. The relevant instruments have not detected that there is radioactive substance in the tin box. The colleague wearing protective clothing has opened the tin box and taken photos.
Enlarge the photo, the pattern inside the amulet is clearly shaped. A white elephant god and Buddha wearing a garland in a dancing posture, a pair of crescent moon-like eyes seem to be narrowing, and two black eyeballs seem to be looking directly at you. No matter which aspect you are in, you cannot escape the sight of those elephant eyes.
"This is the elephant god of the Buddha Kingdom Temple, protecting marriage and love."
He Zhi pointed to the picture on her phone and said with certainty. When she was studying abroad, she would travel to some historical places every winter and summer vacation. Buddha was the first country she went to. At that time, she almost wanted to buy one with the amulets sold outside the Buddha Temple.
At that time, I heard a sister behind me say that she should give her fingertips blood to ask for amulets, so that the amulets would be able to be effective, and she gave up the urge to buy amulets.
"Then this is a good Buddha."
Ke Yang has no research on Buddhism, nor has he been to the Buddha Kingdom Temple. He does not understand how such a foreign spiritual Buddha who protects beautiful love and marriage can become a filthy thing that Huang Banxian cannot avoid.
At that time, Huang Banxian took out the amulet from the dinosaur doll and threw it into the basin and took it away. Ke Yang thought it was Huang Banxian who was playing the show, and he never thought that there was something hidden on the doll.
"Buddha is a good Buddha, but he is afraid of being used by others."
He Zhi then figured it out. During the days when Doudou was taken back by Wu Tongzhou, Wu Tongzhou hid the amulet in Doudou's dinosaur doll.
"It's so scary! What exactly do Wu Tongzhou want to do?"
Thinking of Doudou living in the room where Wu Tongzhou's mother's body is hiding every day, and holding a plaque in her hand that may have been witchcrafted, no wonder she closed her heart and was unwilling to face the sunshine to communicate with others.
Xiao Nan then called.
"Wu Tongzhou revoked the appeal after we found out the secret he had hidden in the wall."
"He is worried that adding evidence of his crime will increase the sentence?"
Ke Yang naturally thought that Song Meijun's death was related to Wu Tongzhou. The murder case has been around since ancient times. With Wu Tongzhou's perverted personality, it is very likely that after learning that his mother cheated, he killed people with extreme hatred.
"Song Meijun's body has been well preserved. After a comprehensive autopsy, Song Meijun died of a heart attack. That is to say, she died during sleep. According to Wu Tongzhou's confession, he did not want his mother to die and become an orphan at that time, so he put his mother in the freezer. The freezer was previously hidden in the basement of the villa. After he got married with He Jing, he decorated the house and transferred the freezer to the dark floor of the new house."
Xiao Nan smiled bitterly and said:
"The privately built basement entrance of Wutongzhou villa is located in the kitchen on the first floor. It is blocked by a kitchen cabinet. We searched so many times but didn't find it. I think I am not qualified to be the captain of the criminal investigation team. I have submitted the transfer report to the superior..."
"Xiao Nan, don't say that, you are already very excellent. I have seen that cabinet, which contains many cups, bowls, plates, and plates. Who would have thought there was a secret passage behind the cabinet. There was no basement in Furongzhang Villa, and no one would have thought that his house would build a private one. Ten years ago, I participated in the case handling during my internship, and I couldn't find any basement. Speaking of which, I need to be responsible."
It was obvious that Xiao Nan's voice was very depressed. It was estimated that the strange cases that continued to emerge during this period had a great blow to her. Now her husband is lying in the hospital and is unconscious, which is equivalent to pushing down Deng's hardest backer in her heart.
"Ke Yang, you don't have to persuade me anymore. I know what I'm doing. You should think of a way to wake up my husband. I believe his prompt. There must be something wrong with that amulet. I know that the amulet was caused by Wu Tongzhou, but he refused to speak. I believe that only you can find out the secret of the amulet."
Xiao Nan has found out that during the winter vacation twelve years ago, Wu Tongzhou and her mother traveled abroad to the Buddha Kingdom. She believes that Wu Tongzhou's trip to the Buddha Kingdom must be related to the secret of the Buddha Card.
A small amulet has caused two strong men to lie in the hospital and fall into a coma. It seems that the deaths of Xiang Qin and Ma Yong are also related to the amulet.
Ke Yang decided to go to the Buddha Kingdom for a trip, and of course He Zhi had to go with him. He Zhi was familiar with the culture and language of the Buddha Kingdom, and then revisited the old place. Can he have a more suitable companion than He Zhi?
Ke Yang retrieved the amulets he had repacked into the tin box and began packing his luggage to prepare for his trip.
At this time, the court's summons also came down. After He Zhi asked his lawyer Tao Ya, she confirmed that she could still sue if she did not have to appear in court, so she decided to hand over the full power to Tao Ya for handling.
However, the lawsuit involves Doudou, and Doudou must stay in Suicheng.
He Zhi, who gave Doudou to Ke Yang's mother, was not worried, but she was worried that Ke Yang's mother, a mother who wanted to take care of Niu Niu and Doudou, would be unable to stand it. If Doudou sneaked out and was taken away by a private detective Lan Hao might hire at any time, then she would be in ruins after all her efforts for so long.
But apart from Ke Yang's mother, it seems that there is no other candidate who can help him take Doudou.
At this time, Xiao Nan came over and had something to do. When he heard the troubles of He Zhi and Ke Yang, he immediately said that she was willing to help take care of Doudou.
"But your sir..."
He Zhi dared not ask Xiao Nan for help. Xiao Nan was at the lowest point in his career and family. Asking her to help take care of the children would be like causing trouble for her.
"Don't worry, I'm on a long holiday now, and it's nothing to do except go to the doctor to accompany my husband. If Doudou is with me, I can learn to tell stories, and I can tell my husband at that time. I can hear diseases like him, and he should be happy to hear the child's voice. Oh, if you don't want Doudou to go to the hospital, I can call my mother over and let my mother accompany Doudou at home when I go to the hospital."
"That's not good either."
Ke Yang felt that Xiao Nan really wanted to help him and He Zhi, but he always felt that it was inappropriate to do so.
Seeing that Ke Yang and He Zhi were still hesitant, Xiao Nan was anxious. It was the most suitable for her to take Doudou, which could avoid the suspicion of He Zhi's imprisonment of Doudou. After Wu Tongzhou was arrested, Lan Hao was Doudou's righteous raising man. Lan Hao is now suing He Zhi, and it was precisely because He Zhi detained his daughter without his consent.
Knowing that Aunt He Zhi and Uncle Ke Yang were on a long journey, Niu Niu's grandmother couldn't take care of her. Doudou obediently climbed into Xiao Nan's car and waved to He Zhi and Ke Yang outside the car window. Looking at Doudou's well-behaved appearance, He Zhi almost shook his determination to travel far.
There were many natives who came and went to sell amulets in front of the Buddha Kingdom Temple. Seeing Ke Yang and He Zhi watching them, two women wearing fruit-wrapped skirts and silver crowns looked at each other and walked towards Ke Yang and He Zhi.
A woman reached out and counted the amulets in the arms of the other hand and pointed them to He Zhi, saying stiff words.
"She thought we were Koreans. She asked us if we wanted to ask the amulet to go back, so that we could bless our lives with a happy and beautiful life."
He Zhi explained to Ke Yang, looking at the amulet on the woman's arm, but did not find the white elephant amulet.
"Is there any this? I just want this."
Ke Yang took out the tin box from his bag, held it to his chest and leaned it slightly, opening the lid towards the woman. His face was facing the erect lid, and he did not look at the amulets in the box. He was observing the reactions of the women selling the amulets when they saw the Buddha box in his hand.
The woman who came first suddenly saw the amulet in the tin box and seemed to have seen something terrifying. She was so shocked that she widened her dark eyes, her thick black lips, and her face looked in disbelief. Then a layer of cold sweat appeared on her black face, and she gestured on her forehead and chest a few times and ran away as if she ran away.
The other women who came up looked almost the same as the women just now. In a blink of an eye, there was no one who came forward to do business.
"Did you hear what they say?"
When the women left, they were muttering words, but unfortunately Ke Yang couldn't understand a single sentence, so they had to ask He Zhi for advice.
He Zhi shook her head, and she looked at the women who had dispersed and no longer approached, with pale faces, as if she was also frightened.
Ke Yang did not let He Zhi see the amulet. In order to prevent accidents, he deliberately avoided He Zhi's sight. He also always paid attention to protecting himself from having a head-on "conflict" with the amulet.
"How are you?"
Ke Yang put away the tin box and stepped forward to look at He Zhi's face.
"I'm fine, why do you think I'm not good?"
Afraid that Ke Yang discovered her concern, He Zhi hurriedly turned her head to look at the tall golden dome Buddhist temple.
She understood the women's words, but she could not tell Ke Yang. She felt that if those words were said from her mouth, they would be like chopsticks falling into a pit, and even if they were cleaned, they would not be used for eating.
"Let's go in, the sun is about to set."
The sun sets and the temple is closed without leaving guests. Ke Yang's mist can only ask the monks in the temple to explain.
He Zhi walked into the golden temple gate first.
Ke Yang had never been to a foreign temple and did not know the rules, but he felt that the rules of temples in the world should be similar. He should not make loud noises, walk lightly and steadily, and respect and humility even if he did not worship Buddha statues.
Ke Yang looked down at the sunset light and shadows that were coming through the hollow window under his feet, and had forgotten which level of Buddhist temple he followed He Zhi into. The surroundings were very quiet, unlike when he first entered the temple gate.
"Ke Yang."
Hearing He Zhi lowered his voice and shouted his name, Ke Yang looked forward and saw an old monk wearing an orange and red cassock walking to him behind He Zhi.
"This is Master Pushilong, you can show him the amulet."
The old monk's face was thin, his slanted robes were exposed half of his shoulders, and his brown and red cheeks seemed to have just been roasted in the fire, with his hands on his chest, and his expression was neither sad nor happy. His eyes seemed to be open, and he could not see where his eyes were looking.
Ke Yang took out the tin box and opened it to the old monk. The old monk's eyebrows jumped, his lowered eyes suddenly widened, he reached out to take out the amulet from the tin box, looked at the sunset that penetrated through the hollow window, and found a strange pronunciation in his mouth.
Obviously, He Zhi didn't understand Pu Shilong's words either. She stared at the amulet that was completely bathed in the sunset like Ke Yang.
The white statues on the amulets are embodied in the light, and you can clearly see a dark matter floating in it, which is like clouds and smoke.
The old monk said another sentence. He Zhi understood this time and immediately said that the amulet was bought by a friend here twelve years ago.
"No, this was not bought."
Master Pu Shilong shook his head repeatedly. He Zhi thought that her statement offended Buddhist taboos, and immediately added that the White Elephant God's Amulet was invited back by a friend.
"No, this is not amulet, this is a yin card."
"Ah, what is the Yin card?"
He Zhi stared at Master Pushilong nervously when he heard the name.
She went to the back hall to kowtow sincerely and invited Master Azan. It seemed that she had invited him correctly. As expected, she recognized this evil amulet.
Pu Shilong did not answer He Zhi's question, put down the amulet held in the sun and returned it to Ke Yang, and then stared at Ke Yang up and down.
Ke Yang was so uncomfortable that he was staring at by the old monk. He reached out and pulled his clothes with his hands to be afraid that something would be wrong. According to He Zhi, the clothes he had to be dressed in the Buddha Kingdom Temple should be given in particular. He had already deliberately worn a formal suit and trousers.
The old monk suddenly reached out and grabbed Ke Yang's right hand. Ke Yang instinctively held the old monk's wrist with his backhand. Amid He Zhi's surprise reminder, Ke Yang hurriedly let go of Pu Shilong's hand.
"Show me your hands."
Pu Shilong stretched out his hand and looked at Ke Yang awkwardly and said with a smile.
After listening to He Zhi's translation, Ke Yang put his hand in the old monk's hand.
Pu Shilong flipped Ke Yang's palm and looked at the needle-like black dot in Ke Yang's palm. His expression became gloomy and clear. He muttered a strange thing, took Ke Yang's hand in front of him and looked again, then put it down, and sighed a long time.
"What did he just say?"
Ke Yang guessed that the old monk must have seen the strangeness in his palm, but He Zhi didn't translate, so he could only worry.
"I don't understand."
He Zhi sighed helplessly. The old monk muttered as if he was an ancient scripture. Even if she was proficient in the language of the Buddha, she would not understand Buddhist scriptures.
