"It is normal for Master Fang to not know." At this time, Master Lianshan explained softly: "In fact, the legend about the treasures of Buddha's Kingdom disappeared in the Qing Dynasty."

"The reason why I know this is mainly because when I look through the classics in the temple, I accidentally saw a few words in the manuscripts of some eminent monks. However, because I was vague, I could only classify them in the anecdotes..."

While speaking, Master Lianshan sighed: "I didn't expect that the legend of this Buddha Kingdom was indeed true."

"What's going on with this treasure of the Buddha?" Fang Yuan was very curious: "How could it last for hundreds of years? What's the relationship with Buddhist temples in southern Fujian?"

"This matter has a long story, and it will start from the Five Dynasties."

At this time, Master Daoguo adjusted his mind slightly and said: "During the Five Dynasties, the ten countries were divided, wars flew, and the land of China was in turmoil. Not only were the people separated, but the people were living in poverty, but the Buddhists were also deeply harmed."

Fang Yuan nodded slightly, knowing that this is the truth. In ancient times, Buddhism was famous for having fields, food and money. When the army was in chaos, they would definitely have the idea of ​​fighting for Buddhist temples. Otherwise, how could it be maintained in the major Buddhist temples?

There are monks? But no matter how many monks there are, they will definitely not be able to fight the army. It is definitely a common thing to be robbed of money and food. "At that time, some people in Buddhism thought that instead of being harassed by chaos all day long, it would be better to put the major Buddhist temples in the world.

Money and grain are concentrated. They are not for rebellion, but for collecting them in secret places. If the chaotic army cannot grab money and grain, they will naturally disperse..."

This method is also good, and Fang Yuan nodded unconsciously. After all, in troubled times, Buddhist monks are still relatively influential. No matter how cruel the chaos army is, they dare not offend Buddhism too much.

"From the Five Dynasties and then to the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, the Jin Kingdom seized half of the country, the Southern Song Dynasty was in a turmoil, and the scale of hidden money and grain in Buddhism gradually expanded."

Master Daoguo whispered: "Especially after the Mongolian cavalry entered the Central Plains and destroyed the Southern Song Dynasty. Because the emperors of the Yuan Dynasty believed in Buddhism, the Buddha they believed in was very different from the Buddhists in the Central Plains. The Buddhists living in Fujian were also full of worry.

Of course, you have to hide precious items."

"For hundreds of years, we have collected money and grain intermittently. It is estimated that even Buddhism itself cannot explain how much treasure has been accumulated. However, in the legend, the Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang fought with Chen Youding, who was locating in the eight counties in southern Fujian.

At that time, he received some support from the treasure of the Buddha Kingdom, and then he successfully replenished military rations. He quickly captured Chen Youding alive..." Master Daoguo hesitated for a while and said unsurely: "Of course, whether this matter is true or false, I will

I don't know. However, the treasure of the Buddha Kingdom should be true. After all, after every turmoil, all Buddhist temples in Quanzhou can quickly recover their vitality. If there is no sufficient financial and material support, this will definitely not be possible."

"Chen Youding?" Fang Yuan blinked. His first reaction was whether this person was Chen Youliang's brother. But later he went back to check the historical information and found that he was outrageously wrong. The two seemed to have the same surname and the same character score. But it was really not

What's the relationship?

Not only that, Chen Youliang was one of the forces of the uprising army at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, but Chen Youding was a loyal minister of the Yuan Dynasty.

At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, bandits broke out everywhere. Chen Youding responded to the imperial edict to join the Yuan Dynasty. Because of his contribution to suppressing the thieves, he gradually became a general of the Yuan Dynasty and occupied eight counties in southern Fujian. At that time, Chen Youliang had also attacked Fujian, but was beaten back by Chen Youding.

However, later, Zhu Yuanzhang attacked Fujian. Chen Youding's subordinates and generals were different, and many people decided to surrender to the Ming army. With the help of these people, Chen Youding was easily destroyed.

After studying this history, Fang Yuan was a little convinced by the treasures of the Buddha Kingdom mentioned by Master Daoguo.

Of course, that's a story later. At this time, Master Daoguo continued to say: "In the late Ming Dynasty, the Qing army entered the pass, and there were troubled times again. At that time, Buddhism thought of the painful experience of Mongolia entering the Central Plains, so it began to store money and grain again...

…”…

"But I didn't expect that the Qing army was so cruel, and the Zheng dynasty that occupied Taiwan often fought with the Qing army in Fujian, which made Fujian a battlefield and was unable to live in peace for nearly a hundred years."

Master Daoguo sighed: "The situation was unstable at that time, and Buddhism did not dare to open the treasure easily. Over time, some monks who had mastered the roadmap for treasures in the Buddha country passed away one after another, and because of an accident, this matter gradually became slow.

Forgotten by the world.”

"This matter is very secretive, and I certainly don't know much. Even if the Qing army later captured Taiwan, southern Fujian gradually stabilized. However, the Buddhist temple host who mastered this secret found that there was a lot of key information missing."

Master Daoguo smiled bitterly and said, "Anyway, according to classics, the route map of the treasure of the Buddha's Kingdom is divided into eight parts, and then secretly kept by eight temples. The route map is the key to the Buddha's Kingdom. Only with them can we open the leading to the treasure.

Accurate road.”

"However, in order to prevent the eight Buddhist temples that had mastered the key to the Buddha's kingdom from opening the treasures in private, Buddhism forged several fake pictures, and then confused them with the real pictures, and asked everyone to randomly select one."

"In this way, even the person in charge of custody of the real Buddha kingdom is probably not clear. Until the situation stabilized and checked, the fake picture was first eliminated, but found that there were only four copies of the real picture left."

Master Daoguo couldn't help but shake his head and said, "It's okay if the map is damaged, but the two most critical lines are gone. One is the specific location of the treasure, and the other is the last route to the treasure..."

"Without the guidance of the two lines, the Buddhist sect searched in the vast mountains for several years, but in the end they found nothing and had to give up helplessly."

Speaking of this, Master Daoguo's mentality is somewhat calm: "As for the four real pictures, they will be handed over to the temple where they were originally kept and will continue to be kept."

Without further ado, Master Daoguo said, Fang Yuan and Master Lianshan understood it. Dai Yun Temple kept one of the real pictures and passed them down to this day. It was collected by Master Daoguo personally.

As the former beloved disciple of Master Daoguo, Yunwu must have known the legend of the treasure of the Buddha Kingdom. After being expelled from the ranks for more than ten years, he was actually making the idea of ​​this treasure.

"I was confused just now, but now I remember. How many four broken pictures can I have left? Even if the four broken pictures are combined, I'm afraid I won't be able to find the treasure."

Master Daoguo yelled the Buddha's name, but he no longer had the worry and anxious expression he had just now.

"...not necessarily." Fang Yuan hesitated: "After all, if he is not sure, it is impossible to take the risk of attacking Master Daoguo repeatedly. As long as a person who is not stupid should know that it is definitely impossible to achieve it with just a broken picture.

Purpose. So perhaps he obtained a key to the Buddha's kingdom that he lost in the Qing Dynasty by chance..."

In an instant, Master Daoguo's face changed slightly, and he also felt that this was quite reasonable. He also understood the temperament of the stranger. Although he had a bad character, his IQ was definitely not low and he would not do things that he was unsure of. Since he was now

The idea of ​​catching the treasures of Buddha's Kingdom, or really mastering some key clues.

"You can't let him succeed." In an instant, Master Daoguo made a decision: "For public and private, you must stop him..."

"This is natural." Master Lianshan nodded quickly and agreed, and then felt a little embarrassed: "But Senior Brother Daoguo, this matter is probably not easy to make a big deal, so he can only investigate it secretly."

When Master Daoguo heard this, he was silent and understood Master Lianshan's concerns. The so-called wealth is moving. If others know about this, they will probably have to look for treasures. Who is still in the mood to search for clouds and mists?

"In fact, after we know the purpose of Yunwu, it will be much more convenient for us to act." Fang Yuan reminded: "As long as we know a general range and wait for the rabbit on his necessary path, it may be much easier."...

"Yes." Master Lianshan's eyes lit up slightly, and he said, "This idea is good, the problem is..."

Suddenly, Master Lianshan stopped talking and even stepped aside and drank tea silently.

What is this for? Of course, it is to avoid suspicion.

At the right time, Master Daoguo smiled bitterly and said softly: "Junior Brother Lianshan, you don't have to do this. By the way, Buddhist temples in various Fujian jointly collected money and grain, and naturally the existence of Kaiyuan Temple is indispensable. If the treasure can be reopened, this is also a merit.

A huge thing.”

"Of course, the theory of treasure may be a bit misty. However, the ignorant disciple is obsessed with profit, and people die for money and birds die for food, which is exactly the best opportunity to seize him."

Master Daoguo said in a deep voice: "Although I don't know where the specific location of the treasure is, the key to the Buddha's kingdom collected by Daiyun Temple should be... the direction of Wuyi Mountain."

"Wuyi Mountain?" Fang Yuan was stunned at first, then felt a little relieved.

After all, the Wuyi Mountains are very long, with large and small peaks continuously, and the mountains are very complex. Most of them are rarely visited and are the secret places where treasures are hidden.

As long as you find a secret cave in the mountains, hide the things and then seal the cave. If outsiders don’t know the details, even if you know that there are huge treasures hidden in the Wuyi Mountains, it may be difficult to find them.

"Since that's the case, then I'll start in the city near Wuyi Mountain." Master Lianshan spoke, then turned around and said, "Master Fang, I'm afraid you need your help in this matter."

"Me?" Fang Yuan was stunned: "I'm afraid it's hard to get involved in this matter." After all, it's about Buddhism's treasures and other things. He is an outsider and it's really inconvenient to participate.

"It's okay." Master Daoguo smiled: "We believe in Master Fang."

"Besides, the fewer people know about this, the better." Master Lianshan also smiled and said, "So after thinking about it, Master Fang is the most suitable candidate. After all, after finding Yunwu, he probably won't surrender."

At the right time, Master Lianshan said in a calm expression: "Once the fight begins, I think only Master Fang has enough strength to capture him alive."

"Uh..." Fang Yuan was stunned, and then said with ease: "Okay, then I'll take a trip to Wuyi Mountain. I may not encounter clouds and mists, but I will try my best to search..."
