"Let's go down and have a look."
The first-level living Buddha was also surprised.
I thought if all the stupas were shaped like this, the lesson learned this time would be memorable to them.
The pagodas in other temples will inevitably begin to be reinforced against theft.
"I'll do it first."
They were all injured when they helped me inject Lingjun to draw the sword, and since this matter concerns Yue Lan, I must do it first.
Besides, I'm good at this.
Since I know the route they use to dig holes, they must be familiar with it.
But one thing that surprised me was why the two living Buddhas didn’t call the police since they discovered this hole.
What’s even more surprising to me is that they didn’t go down to check it out.
I held the flashlight in my mouth, then tied a rope to the pagoda, and tied the other end around my waist.
Before going down, I said: "I will go down in a while.
If nothing happens, I will pull the rope.
If you see the rope shaking, just pull it up, and then go down again."
"Okay."
Everyone nodded at the same time.
I followed the robbery hole and lowered the rope little by little.
The wall of this robbery hole is indeed tighter and stronger than the one we dug, and it is very uniform, and the thickness does not vary too much.
Because it is vertically downward, there is no place to grab hands or feet around, and it is all suspended by a rope.
At the bottom, the depth was probably more than five meters.
There is no soil at the bottom of the cave, which is a very powerful method.
According to the previous method we used Luoyang shovel to dig holes, we still need to remove the soil, which is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also easy to be discovered.
His method of making holes for thieves is not easy for people to discover, and it saves a lot of time and manpower.
You must know that a fight usually takes one night.
If you don't succeed in one night, it is basically impossible to succeed.
Because when you go back the next day, it may have already been revealed that a policeman is squatting on you.
So it usually takes one night.
If you can succeed, you can succeed.
If you can't succeed, you can do it the next day if you dare.
But the average veteran will not take more than two days.
I untied the rope and pulled it twice.
The people above started to pull the rope, and the rope went up little by little.
I looked at the Thief's Cave.
After reaching the bottom, it suddenly made a turn and walked parallel to the front.
It was indeed an authentic shape, but it was not high enough so I had to squat forward to walk.
Then, after walking four or five meters forward, there was a space about two meters in diameter, with charcoal and sand scattered on the ground.
Then there was a mummy wearing lama clothes sitting cross-legged on the ground.
This must have been taken out from underneath.
I approached this space, then looked up, and there was light above.
There was a stupa on it, and the mouth of a circular water tank was faintly visible.
The mummy was in good condition and did not seem to be rotten.
There was so much charcoal on the ground and a kerosene lamp.
I actually remembered the method that my grandfather told me before about not rotting.
This actually belongs to the secret of Buddhism and Taoism.
Whether they are monks or Taoists, they all have the habit of taking cinnabar orally during their lifetime.

Cinnabar is poisonous and mercury is extracted from cinnabar mines.
However, if taken in small amounts, it can cure diseases.
Many Taoist priests use cinnabar to treat diseases.
However, cinnabar cannot be absorbed by the human body, so it will be deposited in the body.
The cinnabar has an antiseptic function.
But this alone is not enough.
Before the deadline is approaching, both monks and Taoists will go into retreat.
During this period of retreat, they will swallow a large amount of cinnabar.
Excessive swallowing of cinnabar can lead to poisoning.
Symptoms of poisoning include vomiting and diarrhea, which can remove most of the water in the body.
You must know that two-thirds of the human body is water.
Such rapid dehydration can save the dehydration process after death.
In fact, it also increases the concentration of cinnabar in the body in disguise.
The last step is also a crucial step, which is to enter the tank.
The water tank must be sealed.
Sand will be spread at the bottom of the water tank, a layer of charcoal will be placed on top of the sand, and a kerosene lamp will be buried around the edge of the charcoal.
After passing away or passing away, the body will be put into a water tank, and then the person handling the funeral will be asked to light the kerosene lamp.
Then put the lid on and seal the water tank lid with soil and straw.
The outside must be completely sealed with a mixture of soil and glutinous rice juice to keep it airtight.
After a few minutes, the oxygen in the water tank is burned out by the kerosene lamp, and the entire water tank is in a vacuum-tight state.
This is the most fundamental reason why the body does not decay.
Under the condition of vacuum sealing, the pressure inside the corpse is even slightly greater than that outside the corpse.
Therefore, the already highly dehydrated corpse will slowly release grease.
The grease will flow into the charcoal and sand and be absorbed by it.
This is the legendary corpse oil.
Under such strict steps, the success rate of mummification is very high, and it is also the secret of incorruptibility.
However, Taoist priests or monks who are qualified to enter the vat must be highly respected people.
Especially in the current age of Dharma-ending, ordinary minor characters do not have this qualification and can only be cremated.
Because after the mummy becomes a golden body, it will be worshiped by the world with gold-plated incense.
Therefore, if you were not highly respected during your lifetime, why should you enjoy the incense and worship after your death?
This was probably the secret method of Buddhism in the past, but with the development of the times and the decline of Buddhism, these may not be so secret anymore.
Just when I was stunned, the first-level Living Buddha and Kabu Living Buddha behind me had already followed.
I came back to my senses, turned to look at them, and said, "My guess is right.
Look, this robbery hole is still connected."
Looking at other places, it shows that these stupas were stolen by the same person at one time, but if there is only a golden body in the stupa, and all the golden bodies are there, then what is his purpose of robbing the tomb this time. " The first-level Living Buddha did not answer me, but quickly crawled towards the mummy.
After examining the mummy, he reached out towards his face.
Only then did I realize that there were a few holes on the face of the mummy, like a crack, but they were quite natural, as if the mouth was slightly opened before death.
"It was stolen."
The first-level living Buddha sighed.
"Hey, it must have been leaked by Mu Shen."
Kabu sighed and said, "When my body was buried, only a few elders knew this secret, and this Mu Shen was one of them."
"What was stolen?"
I looked at them in disbelief.
Damn, they actually hid something in the mouth of the mummy and then sealed it layer by layer.
However, it was still stolen.

"Buddha amulet."
Kabu looked at me and said, "Every living Buddha will be buried with a Buddhist amulet in his mouth."
"What's the use of this amulet?"
I looked at them puzzled.
"Let's talk about it after we go out.
Let's see how the other golden bodies are doing first.
If there is no problem, we can get the golden bodies out and gild them first."
After finishing speaking, the first-level Living Buddha walked forward.
I followed and found that the same was true in several other places.
The golden bodies were all there, but the amulets in them were missing.
Next to the last golden body, there is another robber's cave.
Climb out along the robber's cave.
Within ten meters, it is flooded with water.
Once flooded, all the evidence and clues will be soaked away.
It seems that the person who stole the amulet is definitely an experienced hand
