When he found Tam, he really found the right one. Wang Lan originally thought he would have to go through several setbacks, but he didn't expect it to go so smoothly.
Yunhai Province is actually quite large, but most of the area is sparsely populated with barren mountains and rivers. Tam drove for a whole day before arriving at the county seat closest to the village Tam mentioned.
"Three leaders, we will rest in this town tonight. We will go into the mountains early tomorrow morning. The village is deep in the mountains. It has to climb twelve high mountains. It will take at least half a month to walk on two legs."
"Don't bother me. I'll fly you there tomorrow. If I had known it was so far away, I should have flown you there this morning."
Wang Lan had actually wanted to say this for a long time. At first he asked Tam if it was far, and Tam said it wasn't far. After driving for an hour, Wang Lan asked again, and Tam said it was almost there. Maybe in the realm of the sea of clouds, this is not far.
Far and Coming is different from what Wang Lan understands.
That night, Jiang Xinyu was pulled over by Yu Ruoyun and slept together. After they went their separate ways, Wang Lan and Yu Ruoyun did develop some distance, but it felt like Jiang Xinyu and Yu Ruoyun, who were originally far apart, actually
They have become close best friends.
Could it be that the relationship between these women is better when they are together less and apart more?
Early the next morning, a group of four people had breakfast early. Then Wang Lan took Tam, and the four of them took off into the air towards the depths of the jungle. Looking down from the sky, the virgin jungle was endless and densely covered the entire field of vision.
This is a sea of trees and a territory of mountains. After seeing the rapid changes in the city, it is very strange to see this ancient natural style. Especially when the moist air with fresh trees blowing in front of you, Wang Lan can't help but have a feeling.
The urge to look up to the sky and scream.
Under Tam's guidance, Wang Lan and the four of them fell from the sky into the dense trees. Tam drew the direction where they were, took out the compass and calculated for a while before determining the direction.
"Who!" Yu Ruoyun suddenly yelled and looked at a certain place. In an instant, he remembered a rushing sound in the dense forest. A group of dark things that looked like primates appeared around them.
After taking a closer look, it became clear that they were a group of people, only wearing animal skins and their faces smeared with black mud. Everyone was pointing their bows and arrows at the four Wang Lans from a distance.
Tam quickly shouted a few words that were completely incomprehensible, and the group around them put away their bows and arrows but still looked at them warily.
"Chief, they are the people from the village I was talking about. They are very autistic and exclusive. Anyone they don't know will be treated as enemies if they approach them. But if someone they know leads them to approach, they are very hospitable."
"Then do you know them?"
"I know their village chief. It's okay. I'll take you with me and they won't attack. But you must not make any moves that cause misunderstandings, otherwise they will still have an overreaction."
Following Tam, Wang Lan and others entered a village, led by this group of primitive-looking villagers. The village was very simple, but not as simple as Wang Lan imagined. The whole village looked very neat, and the villagers returned to
After the village, he immediately took off his animal skin and washed the dirt off his face.
After changing their appearance, the villagers instantly lost their wildness and looked closer to civilization. In the village, children were running around naked, both men and women were the same, and the women were either washing clothes, drying grain, or marinating meat.
Looking at the clothes on the villagers, they are very common clothes, including T-shirts and jeans. They don't look like backward villagers in the primitive forest at all.
Perhaps understanding the confusion in Wang Lan's eyes, Tam smiled slightly and said, "The government has always wanted to civilize them, so it often sends people to deliver supplies to them. Although they are still xenophobic, they have become able to accept things from the outside world.
Every year we give them old clothes and daily necessities that we collect, and that’s how I got to know their village chief.”
"8*..." a voice sounded, and a very rugged middle-aged man from a distance ran towards him excitedly with open arms.
"8*..." Tam also shouted and gave the other party a warm hug.
"This is their village chief. I have already introduced you to him. If you have any questions, I will serve as the translator."
Wang Lan nodded, and then conveyed the question in his mind through Tam's mouth.
"This question needs to be asked to the village Saha. He will take us to ask it right now."
Wang Lan followed the village chief to the center of the village. It was obvious that the village's Saha had a very high status. Not only was it located in the center of the village, it also had the largest house, and there was much more game and food in the yard than other houses.
Saha is a very senior old man, and there is a girl next to Saha. The girl looks to be only seventeen or eighteen years old, with a pair of smart eyes that are very expressive.
“……**￥@%￥@#”
"Grandma said, distinguished guests welcome you to my village."
"Do you know Mandarin?"
"Little brother, please don't look down on me. I am a freshman at Kunyu University. I am also the next generation successor who has attended nine years of compulsory education and passed the college entrance examination." The girl's voice was very light and her tone was also very playful.
Drawn the distance between each other.
"Okay then, let me introduce myself. I am Wang Lan, Major General of the Heavenly Sword Bureau of the Jade Kingdom. I have come to Yunhai to ask about the whereabouts of the White Lotus Sect after the battle between the devil and the Buddha Sakyamuni three thousand years ago and the whereabouts of the sealed body of the devil."
The girl whispered into Sapo's ear, and in an instant, Sapo's face changed drastically, and her eyes when she looked at Wang Lan became very wary.
"Why are you asking about this? Do you want to release that demon? Do you know how many people will die if that demon is released?"
"You misunderstood, it's not that we want to release the devil, but that the devil's soul has broken free from the demon-suppressing Buddha statue, and we are here to destroy the devil.
The demon should be looking for his body now, and we just have to find his body before the demon."
After listening to the little girl's words, Saha's face improved a little, but fear appeared on her face.
"The devil has actually come out... It's so scary... This legend has been passed down orally in our village. In the battle that year, almost all the priests and shamans of Yunhai died in the battle, and the disciples led by Sakyamuni Buddha also suffered heavy casualties.
In the end, the Buddha cut off his golden body to seal the devil's soul, and the devil's body was taken away and sealed by the Lotus Fairy. In order to preserve this secret, Sakyamuni Buddha and the Lotus Fairy made an agreement that the body of the soul should be hidden separately, except for his own inheritance.
The person cannot disclose it to a second person.
Then the Lotus Sect announced the closure of the sect, and Canaan, a disciple of Sakyamuni Buddha, stayed to watch over the demon soul."
"Then, do these two sects still have inheritances?"
"Canaan founded the Nianhua Temple in the deep mountains and old forests. I heard that the Buddha was worried and left behind a powerful sealing technique to prevent the devil from escaping and no one could subdue it. As for the White Lotus Sect... we don't know
Yes, but I think Nianhua Temple should know the whereabouts of the White Lotus Sect."
"Nianhua Temple? Three thousand years have passed. Nianhua Temple should have disappeared in the long history, right?"
"You are wrong. I remember when I was young, my grandma took me to Nianhua Temple to pray. I only know that Nianhua Temple is hidden in the deep mountains and old forests. The monks who practice in Nianhua Temple are all themselves.
Farm, live alone and practice.”
"Where is Nianhua Temple?"
Saha shook her head, "It's been too long. I went there once when I was a child, and I haven't been there since. If you weren't familiar with the road, you wouldn't be able to find it. How to get there, and where you are would have long been forgotten. It's just that
I remember that I was deep in the mountains, and there was a large red forest outside..."
As expected, Wang Lan expected that even if he found an ancient village, he would not be able to get more useful information. But even if there were a few clues, it would be a breakthrough for Wang Lan.
Except for learning that Canaan, a disciple of the Buddha, stayed behind to found the Nianhua Temple and guard the demon soul, the rest of the information was useless to Wang Lan. It was either too false or was something Wang Lan already knew.
Wang Lan had to discount the existence of Nianhua Temple. In the words of Saha, Nianhua Temple was the place where demons were suppressed, but the demons had already escaped. And when Yan Tong got the demon-suppressing Buddha statue, it was in a different dimension.
Found among the ruins.
To put it this way, wouldn’t the ruins be Nianhua Temple?
Returning to the Yunhai Tianjian Bureau from the ancient village, Wang Lan immediately asked Che Puer to investigate the whereabouts of Nianhua Temple. Even if it is possible, there is no clue, but it is necessary to search. What if it is found?
The Tianjian Bureau immediately took action. There are a total of 182 temples in Yunhai Province, which is much higher than other provinces. But after all, the religious beliefs in Yunhai Province are relatively strong, and there are also historical reasons.
In the ancient dynasty, the people in the Yunhai area were fierce and unyielding, so the emperor at that time used Buddhism to dispel the evil thoughts of the people in the Yunhai area. This effect was indeed quite good. Over the past hundred years, many Yunhai chieftains became devout believers in Buddhism and gave up one by one.
Butcher's knife immediately became a Buddha.
"None of the one hundred and eighty temples in Yunhai is called Nianhua Temple. It's strange to say that many temples have the same name. For example, there are five Tianchi Temples and six or seven Jintan Temples. But Buddha Nianhua smiled,
There is such a classic allusion to the creation of Zen Buddhism, but there is no temple called Nianhua Temple." Yu Ruoyun said seriously while analyzing the information in his hand.
"There may be only one explanation for this. Nianhua Temple has a very important status among local temples, so they would rather have the same name than take the name Nianhua Temple."
"General Wang, we have found it..." Suddenly, the director of the Intelligence Department excitedly opened the door of his office and shouted, "General Wang, we have found Nianhua Temple."
"Where?"
"Uh... I didn't find it, I just found the clue to Nianhua Temple." As he spoke, he placed a piece of information covered with traces of time in front of Wang Lan.
"This is the ultimatum of Zen Master Pu Hai. You see, it is recorded here that fifty years ago, Zen Master Pu Hai practiced in Nianhua Temple and then became a monk in Qingjing Temple."
"Fifty years ago... the Saha said that when she was young, probably sixty years ago... it should be the same temple, and she went to find Monk Pu Hai."
Together with the three members of the team and the special agents from the Intelligence Bureau, the two cars roared towards the Qingjing Temple.
