After taking a look at the monk who had a slightly immature face, Lu Xiao shook his head and said, "If you don't want to burn incense, come find Abbot Rusong."

The young monk looked at Lu Xiao in surprise, frowned and said, "At this hour, the abbot should have fallen asleep."

"It's cold in the mountains at night, and it rained again today. It's hard for older people to sleep well. I have something important to see Abbot Rusong, please pass on the message." Lu Xiao said politely.

Seeing Lu Xiao's polite manner, the young monk hesitated for a moment and said, "Then I will ask for the benefactor. If the abbot falls asleep, the benefactor will have to come again tomorrow."

Lu Xiao nodded with a smile on his face.

Just as Lu Xiao guessed, Rusong didn't sleep.

He asked the young monk from before to invite Lu Xiao into his meditation room.

"The donor came to see me specially?" Rusong looked at Lu Xiao and looked as normal before asking.

Lu Xiao said: "I was supposed to come at noon, but I was stopped by someone, so I had to come back later."

"Were you stopped?" Rusong frowned.

"Early this morning, my wife and I came to the Guanyin Hall to burn incense."

"Guanyin Hall?"

Lu Xiao nodded and said: "The monk in the temple is very kind-hearted and reminded me that if I want my request for a son to be effective, I should come back on the night of the 15th of the next lunar month."

When he said this, Rusong already understood his purpose.

Whether in the book or in the movie, Rusong can be regarded as a kind-hearted person, so Lu Xiao came to find him instead of directly killing people.

You don't even know how many accomplices the other party has, so of course you can't act recklessly.

"I heard that the custom of staying overnight in the Guanyin Hall started in the Northern Song Dynasty, and I don't know when it spread to Hangzhou." Lu Xiao said quietly.

Rusong sighed: "The monk broke his own precepts, and the custom has been ruined. As the director of this temple, I strictly prohibit this. The tunnel has been sealed long ago. Only this custom is preserved."

His words made Lu Xiao a little surprised, and he also sighed a little, saying: "It seems that I can only seal a gentleman, but not a villain."

"How can outsiders be said to be gentlemen?" Rusong looked at Lu Xiao and said, "The donor thought that by sealing the tunnel, it was really a good deed? Maybe it was an evil deed."

Lu Xiao understood what he meant and said: "Perhaps there are powerful seniors who do this, not for lewdness, but for mercy. But this does not include the few monks in the Guanyin Hall at this moment."

"Why is the donor so sure?" Rusong asked in surprise.

Lu Xiaodao: "When Lord Buddha does good deeds, he should not pay attention to appearance."

Rusong was slightly startled, then nodded and said: "Amitabha, I was forty-one years old and have been the abbot of this temple for thirty years. Donor, why don't you guess where the entrance to this tunnel is?"

He asked, the entrance to the tunnel is probably in this Zen room. He chose to live here, probably to protect the tunnel.

That being said, those monks in the Guanyin Hall are really daring.

But Lu Xiao couldn't help but think of another question. He heard that the sound went up. If Ru Song slept here, would he not hear the underground sound? This question disappeared after he accompanied Ru Song down.

Therefore, the tunnels under the Buddhist temple are so intricate that it would be impossible to hear everything going on underneath.

Lu Xiao glanced at the window where the sound of rain could still be heard, and guessed: "If my guess is right, the entrance to the tunnel should be in this Zen room, right?"

"The donor is indeed very intelligent." As he said this, Rusong blew out the oil lamp in the room.

Lu Xiao frowned.

Rusong explained: "If you don't destroy the oil lamp, your and my shadow will fall on the window, and it will always be troublesome if others see it."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Xiao understood what he meant. What he was worried about was not that people would misunderstand what evil he was doing, but that the secret passage in the temple would be exposed.

More than thirty years have passed, and with the death of the old monk in the temple, the secret passage will probably remain dusty forever. Once someone with a heart knows about it, I don’t know what kind of trouble will arise.

Lu Xiao immediately nodded in understanding.

But considering the darkness at this moment, Lu Xiao didn't know if Rusong could see his nod.

The tunnel is cold and narrow, and it begins to open up after walking for dozens of meters. It is normal for Rusong to sleep on the bed at such a distance and not hear what is going on underneath.

The two of them walked forward for a while, and the tunnel gradually opened up, and some faint sounds became clearer.

The silver monks, who were immersed in it, did not notice the arrival of Lu Xiao and Ru Song.

Rusong and Lu Xiao were also shocked by the scene in front of them. Rusong may not have known how to describe the chaotic scene in front of him, but Lu Xiao, on the other hand, almost blurted out the word "four splits".

"brute!"

Rusong made a violent attack, both in speed and strength, which shocked Lu Xiao. The three monks who suddenly heard the sound had no time to react, and their blood was probably already spattered on the spot when they saw Rusong.

Even though he was full of anger, Rusong left room for action and did not kill them. But what surprised him was that he closed his eyes and recited the Buddha's name. When he opened his eyes and pursed his lips, he didn't know how to reprimand these villains, but he saw

They all had their necks wiped by Lu Xiao and could no longer die.

He was wrong. Lu Xiao only killed two people, and the other one was frightened and fainted.

"Donor, you..."

Lu Xiao pointed to the unconscious woman on the bed and said, "It's unfair to her that they are alive."

"Amitabha." Rusong sighed and remained silent.

"She has been drugged and will not wake up for a while. I will wait until I dispose of the bodies of these evil people who polluted the purity of Buddhism before sending her out. Let her just think that she is having a nightmare and will not know the truth." Lu Xiaochao

Like a pine road.

Rusong said nothing.

Sometimes, silence is the default.

Lu Xiao ignored Ru Song. He covered the unconscious monk's mouth with one hand and inserted the dagger into the monk's thigh with the other hand. The latter immediately woke up from the pain.

It was fate that he was the one who said those words to Li Lingyue in the main hall.

"It's you." After seeing Lu Xiao's appearance clearly, a trace of hatred flashed in Yun Xin's eyes, but more of it was fear.

"Which other monks in the temple were involved in this matter?" Lu Xiao said: "Don't think about panicking, or you will end up like them."

"No, no more." Yun Xin shook his head hastily.

Lu Xiao asked again: "Besides you, who else knows the secret passage at the bottom of the temple?"

Yun Xin shook his head again.

"How did you discover the secret passage? Where is the entrance where you came down?" When asking, Lu Xiao played with the dagger in his hand.

After Yun Xin saw it, he didn't dare to hide anything and explained everything.

As soon as his last voice fell, and he didn't even have a chance to beg for mercy, Lu Xiao wiped his neck with a knife.

Seeing Rusong's eyes falling on him, Lu Xiao said calmly: "Someone once taught me to have a bodhisattva heart and use thunderous methods."

"Amitabha."
