Gu Long: Dominating the Martial Arts World Starting from Transmigrating as A Fei
Chapter 105 Searching for Treasure in the Zen House
Xinhu remained silent after hearing Afei's words.
Chu Liuxiang's eyes flashed, and he said:
"That is indeed a good idea."
He was very willing to help, but since he had been involved in the theft of the Shaolin scriptures, he had to see it through to the end.
Afei had previously hinted that Bai Xiaosheng and Xin Jian conspired to steal.
Now that Chu Liuxiang has discovered Bai Xiaosheng's misconduct, he is going to investigate.
Ah Fei laughed and said:
"In that case, I will trouble General Chu with this matter. My innocence rests in your hands."
"This humble monk has important matters to attend to, so I must take my leave now."
Without waiting for Chu Liuxiang to stop him, he grabbed Lianxing and Xingnu and leaped into the darkness.
Seeing this, the chief of the Heart Lake did not stop them, but silently allowed A Fei and the other two to leave.
Chu Liuxiang looked at the Heart Lake and said:
"Master Xinhu, now that we have new clues, why don't we investigate them thoroughly?"
The clue he was referring to was naturally among the belongings of the deceased Xin Jian.
Bai Xiaosheng scolded:
"Is Xiang Shuai really that foolish? It's just a thief's excuse to distract us, and you actually believed it?"
He was somewhat hysterical, because Bai Xiaosheng knew that the stolen scriptures were in Xin Jian's possession, and he hadn't had time to move them.
Chu Liuxiang smiled and said calmly:
"We'll have to sort through Master Xinjian's belongings sooner or later anyway, so why don't we go now?"
"Or perhaps, sir, you dare not?"
As he spoke, he made a "please" gesture.
Bai Xiaosheng pondered for a long time, then snorted coldly and said:
"What wouldn't I dare to do?"
After saying that, he took the lead and walked towards the Xinjian meditation room.
Seeing this, Xinhu hesitated for a moment, then could only sigh and leave.
Dozens of people from the "Library" followed suit in a "whoosh".
Only the third monk, Xin Jing, remained unmoved. He felt that he needed to check the scriptures again before he could feel at ease.
After everyone left, he returned to the pavilion alone.
Afei and his two companions left the Zen temple and sped away.
Lianxing asked, puzzled:
"Why not go with them? According to you, that person's belongings contain evidence that exposes Bai Xiaosheng's true colors."
"Wouldn't it be too frustrating to just leave like this?"
Ah Fei smiled and said:
"Being exonerated is certainly good, but there are more important things."
Upon hearing this, Lianxing's interest was piqued, and she said with amusement:
"Oh, what could be more interesting on this mountain than causing a ruckus in the 'Scripture Pavilion'?"
Ah Fei smiled mysteriously and said:
"Come with me."
Upon hearing this, Lianxing, along with Xingnu, followed closely behind.
Ah Fei's speed increased, as if he was afraid of being overtaken.
Before Lianxing could even marvel at Afei's superb lightness skills, she discovered something even more astonishing.
This was because Ah Fei was not heading down the mountain, but was speeding towards the "Great Buddha Hall".
What exactly does Afei want to do? Lianxing kept guessing.
Before long, the three arrived at a courtyard.
This place is right next to the Mahavira Hall, and not far from Xinmei Xinjian's meditation room.
Unlike other Zen temples where meditation rooms are located, this temple has a bamboo grove.
Only after passing through the bamboo forest can you see an exquisite Zen retreat.
It is the Zen room of the first Heart Lake.
When Afei revealed who lived there, Lianxing was filled with doubt and confusion.
She asked:
What are you doing here?
Ah Fei smiled and said:
"Since these monks have treated us this way, chasing and beating us, and even trying to take our lives, of course we should get some interest."
Lianxing said incredulously:
"Is this the more important thing you're talking about?"
Afei nodded as if it were the most natural thing in the world and said:
"As the Second Palace Master of the 'Flower Shifting Palace,' you certainly can't feel it. For a wandering knight like me, money is as important as life itself."
Lianxing thought for a moment and didn't say anything, but she still agreed with Afei's words in her heart.
However, Ah Fei is wrong about one thing.
As the true manager of the "Yihua Palace", Lianxing is in charge of handling all the affairs, big and small, in the palace.
Therefore, Lianxing had to make the decisions regarding the palace's expenses. How could she not know the value of money?
Although she already knew that Ah Fei wanted to seize the wealth of "Shaolin", Lian Xing found it quite amusing to see that Ah Fei was so greedy at such a young age.
But how does Ah Fei know where Shaolin's wealth is?
While Lianxing was still confused, Afei had already entered the meditation room and started looking around.
The old folks in this world mostly like to hide their treasures, either burying them with them or leaving clues for someone destined to find them.
But Shaolin is special because they advertise themselves as practicing asceticism and eating simple meals every day.
Therefore, no matter how much wealth they possessed, they would never dare to let the outside world know.
So what is the best way to keep a secret? It is to reduce the number of people who know the secret.
And among all the people in Shaolin who know just how much wealth the sect has, the head monk is definitely one of them.
So regardless of whether he hid his wealth in his residence, at least some clues can be found.
The furnishings in the Zen retreat are very simple and rustic, and it certainly looks like the residence of a person who is pure of heart and has few desires.
No matter how hard an ordinary person searches, it's difficult to spot the problem at a glance.
But Ah Fei has "The Mirror of Pitying Flowers".
Ingenious mechanisms are also a major category in "The Mirror of Pitying Flowers".
Ah Fei went into the house to investigate for a week and discovered the problem.
This meditation room has a side room, and on the wall next to the main room is a simple bookshelf.
Several Buddhist scriptures and Zen texts were displayed on the bookshelf.
Behind the bookshelf, the wall separating the side room from the main room is a bit too thick.
The wall appears to be woven from bamboo, but behind the bamboo wall is another wall, which is actually made of bronze!
Ah Fei concluded that there was definitely something wrong with the wall.
He gently pushed the bookshelf twice, and the bookshelf quietly slid open.
All that could be heard was the clanging of a mechanism, and the corner of the bookshelf wall sank at the far end.
In an instant, a deep tunnel, barely wide enough for a person to pass through sideways, was revealed on the ground.
Lianxing, who was looking around boredly, heard the sound and "whoosh" floated over.
Ah Fei turned to look at her, paused for a moment, and then couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Because Lianxing's figure had shrunk, the large monk's robe concealed her exquisite and beautiful curves.
What Afei saw was that on that swan-like, beautiful neck, there was a monk's mask with a face full of fat.
Such an image is simply too beautiful to look at a second time.
When Ah Fei grants "disguise" to anyone other than himself, the person being disguised is unaware of the changes.
Just like when Lianxing's body transformed into a large man, she herself didn't even realize it.
An hour has now passed.
Lianxing was completely bewildered when she saw Afei smiling at her.
She subconsciously touched her face and looked down at it.
Then Lianxing instantly realized why Afei was laughing.
In a fit of rage, she ripped the mask off and snapped:
"What are you laughing at? What's so funny!"
Her delicate nose wrinkled, and her nostrils flared slightly involuntarily, making her look even more adorable.
