Chapter 382: Fishbone Temple
After resting in Gulan County for a day, on the third day, everyone took the address provided by Lao Liu into the mountain. After walking for a day, they arrived at the foot of the Longling Mysterious Cave.
When Da Jinya heard that he was going to fight back, he seemed very excited. This was his first time in the true sense of going back. He was so excited that he was humming and singing all the way.
Chen Hao told them not to have too high expectations. The people who built the Fish Bone Temple are masters among their peers, and maybe the good things inside will be taken away by others.
When we arrived at a place called Panshepo at the foot of the mountain, it was already dark, so everyone had to find a farmer's house to spend the whole night.
The farmer was a couple in their 50s. When they saw everyone carrying large and small bags, they asked where they came from and what they wanted to do.
Hu Bayi took a guise and said that he was going to visit his former army comrades, so they lived in this remote place, with no villages or shops in front of them, hoping that it would be convenient for them to spend the night.
As he said that, he took out 100 yuan from his wallet and stuffed it to the old couple. When the old couple saw so much money, they nodded and agreed, invited them in, packed up a house and came out for them to live in.
The next morning.
Everyone ate the breakfast cooked by the old couple early, and hurriedly left with the things.
After walking for most of the day, when it was approaching evening, everyone came to the legendary Longling mystery cave with ravines.
Everyone stood on a small valley and looked up around. When they saw that they were full of earth beams, earth mounds, and gullies extending horizontally. The surroundings were high and low. The yellow mud floor was full of potholes. At first glance, it looked like the land was covered with dark spots.
"Masters, how long will it take to get there? My legs are weak." Big Jinya asked panting.
Everyone took out the map and looked at the route, and hurriedly told him that he would arrive in a few hours, and the Fishbone Temple was hidden among these countless gullies.
Everyone followed the route marked on the map and walked for more than three hours. Finally, they found the dilapidated Fish Bone Temple in one of the ravines.
When everyone approached, they found that there was only one temple in the Fish Bone Temple, and there was no backyard or side hall at all. The Dragon Prince's statue was only one base, and there was nowhere to go on the upper body.
The temple gate did not fly away. When everyone saw the structure of the entire temple, it was indeed made of a pair of fish bones. To this day, this skeleton is still not decayed and weathered.
As soon as I entered the temple, the nests of rats inside were frightened and ran around. A lot of mud on the walls fell off, and there were holes everywhere. When the wind blew in, it looked like a ghost crying and howling, giving people the feeling that as long as a strong wind came, the roof could be lifted away.
Hu Bayi stood at the entrance of the temple, compared the direction of the surrounding mountains, and said, "If this place is at its Feng Shui level, when I go back, I will tear up the secret 16-character Yin-Yang Feng Shui technique I passed down from! "
The fat man looked at the surrounding ridges and said, "Isn't this place quite good? When the wind blows, it's like a ghost crying and howling, and there's a wind. It's just a short while. There will be some heavy rains next year. I guess there will be water in those ditches. Wouldn't this form a Feng Shui treasure land?"
Hu Bayi was too lazy to talk to him. The construction of this temple in such a place had already violated Feng Shui and Yin and Yang. He was even more sure that this fish bone temple was built by the Jinshi Captain who pretended to be a foreign merchant.
The fat man asked in confusion: "If it is really to cover up people's eyes, then there is no need to spend so much energy on building a temple or a straw shed in such a poor mountain valley?"
Hu Bayi explained: "That was to win the trust of the locals. Think about it, why did an outsider run into this valley to build a straw hut? The first starting point is that people doubt your identity.
It is different for you to build a temple. Foreigners invest in building a temple to ensure safety and good weather. This is a good thing for locals, and there are not so many people who are suspicious of it.
Besides, it is not easy to dig the tomb. It is definitely not something that can be dug overnight. If you build this temple, you will have a name. You can stay in the mountains all year round. After three or a half years of digging, no one doubts it. It is far better to disguise than any other building."
After hearing this, the fat man and Da Jinya suddenly realized it and couldn't help but admire the skillful method of the gold-touching captain who built the temple.
Next, Chen Hao and Hu Bayi came to the back mountain of Yugu Temple, looked up at the surrounding terrain, and judged the location of the ancient tomb.
Chen Hao used the secret technique of setting off the hill, observing the stars and the moon, and examining the dragon veins, and soon found the exact location of the ancient tomb, just below the ground three miles southwest of the Fish Bone Temple.
Hu Bayi's speed was far less than that fast. He looked at the Dragon Search for more than half an hour, but still did not determine the exact location of the ancient tomb. He only knew that it was about 20 miles in this radius.
Chen Hao didn't want to waste time, so he hurriedly pointed him in the direction. Hu Bayi used all his solutions to analyze it and found that the position was indeed where Chen Hao pointed, and immediately gave him a thumbs up.
The two walked to the top of the tomb and dug a hole with engineer shovels. They found that there were sandstone layers below, with only a layer of hard mud on the surface. No wonder the hole was stolen at the Fishbone Temple.
Although the project volume is relatively large, the excavation speed is much faster. It is difficult to dig through a rock formation without professional excavation machinery.
Chen Hao knew the location of the stolen hole, just behind the base of the Dragon King statue, which was the stolen hole that the golden abacus had dug. Now they just picked up a ready-made one and just went straight into the stolen hole.
After determining the location of the ancient tomb, everyone returned to the Fishbone Temple and began to look for the thief hole.
Chen Hao didn't want to waste his time, so he pretended to look around in the temple and came directly to the rear of the statue.
There is still more than half a meter of space behind the statue, which can only accommodate one person in and out. The base of the statue is a square, as high as half a person.
There were edges and corners around the base. Chen Hao placed his hand on the side of the base and tapped it with his hand. He immediately made a series of crisp sounds of "dong dong dong...", and the hole was indeed hidden here.
After hearing the sound, everyone surrounded him and stared at the back of the base of the statue.
"Stop looking for it, the thief should be here." Chen Hao said with a firm tone.
Hu Bayi sighed: "Awesome and powerful, worthy of being an experienced expert, he found the location of the hole so quickly. I thought the hole should be the kind of person who hit it from the front, but I didn't expect it to be from the side. Fortunately, you were there, otherwise we wouldn't know how long it would take to look..."
Da Jinya gave a thumbs up and praised: "Old Hao is so awesome, he is worthy of being the official of Faqiu Tian!"
Chen Hao was too lazy to tuggle with them, so he stretched out his fingers and poked hard, and made a loud bang. The wooden board covered with mud on the outside was poked out a hole, revealing the dark thief inside.
