The Mountain of the Siren Mound Chapter 4: Dust Washing Temple (2)


"It's me."

I replied quietly.

ShiryYang Yi didn't say anything for a while, and after a while he opened the door and asked: "Lao Hu, why are you coming to my room in the middle of the night?"

I secretly laughed: "It's been a long night and I have no intention of sleeping, so I came here to invite you to enjoy the moon together." sh irey Yang said disdainfully: "If you had the leisure and elegance to admire the moon, you wouldn't be Hu Bayi.

I think you are only interested when you are eating moon cakes."

Seeing that she had seen through it, I quickly said seriously: "I'm not joking anymore. , the fat man is gone."

Shirey Yang was shocked: "Don't you two sleep in the same room?

When did he disappear?"

I said helplessly: "I don't know.

I just realized he was missing when I got up to go to the toilet."

Shirey Yang nodded and said: "It's already midnight.

It's not convenient to disturb the abbot.

Let's look for it ourselves first."

Shiry Yang and I went to look for the fat man together.

This temple is not big.

There is a small courtyard at the entrance.

To the north of the courtyard is the Buddhist hall, and there are wing rooms on the east and west sides.

The kitchen is in the northeast corner, and the toilet is in the northwest corner.

Late at night, the entire temple was dark, without any lights, and only the moon above cast a little light.

After a while, we searched all over the courtyard, the temple, and the toilet.

We didn't see the fat man, so we walked to the kitchen.

As soon as I entered the kitchen, I heard a rustling sound.

Shiry Yang grabbed me and I nodded, meaning I heard it too.

I happened to turn around and saw a fire stick placed on the stove next to me.

I picked it up and tiptoed towards the source of the sound.

As I got closer, I saw a dark figure huddled in the corner.

Without saying a word, I picked up the fire stick and hit the shadow.

"Ouch, you damn old Hu, you're going to kill me," the fat man's voice shouted.

Shiry Yang and I were immediately relieved when we heard it was Fatty.

I grabbed the fat man and asked, "Why are you so sneaky and awake in the middle of the night?

Come on, get it right, or I'll punish him severely."

The fat man groaned and said while rubbing the sore place where I hit him: "The monks in this temple are really picky.

They only give you such a mouthful of food.

Who can eat enough?

I haven't slept for a long time."

I woke up from hunger, so I came to the kitchen to find something to eat.

Otherwise, how could I sleep when I was hungry?

Ah.

Lao Hu, you bastard, Fatty, I was putting the steamed bun into my mouth, and you almost stuffed the steamed bun into my mouth and choked me to death.

"Since I found out that this black shadow is a fat man.

I had already guessed what he was doing, so I wasn't surprised.

This seemed like something he could do.

Shirley Yang complained in a low voice: "Wang Kaixuan, you are too worried about me and Lao Hu, we have been looking for you for a long time."

The fat man did not appreciate it and said reluctantly: "You two are too cautious, my fat man What kind of skill is that?

A character who can conquer demons from the sky and capture dragons from the water, can anything happen to him?"

He paused and then said, "Hey Lao Hu, when I was looking for something to eat in the kitchen just now, I found a secret door behind the cupboard.

I was busy looking for something to eat, and I didn't have a flashlight at hand.

It was so dark that I couldn't see anything clearly.

I didn’t go in.

You said this temple is a place for spiritual practice, so what do you mean by building a secret door secretly?”

What the fat man said also surprised me, and my curiosity suddenly aroused.

Turning to look at Shirey Yang, although she was reserved, I could see that she was also very curious, so I said to the fat man: "Revolutionary work cannot be just talked about, it must be implemented into actions and practice.

What's weird about this secret door, let's go find out."

After that, he walked towards the cupboard.

This cupboard stands in the deepest northeast corner of the kitchen.

It is called a cupboard, but it is actually a simple shelf made of wood.

Each layer above is filled with thick bowls and plates.

Through the gap between the bowl and the plate, you can barely see a crack in the wall.

It seems that the secret door is embedded in the wall.

If you don't look closely at the cupboard, you can hardly see the secret door behind the cupboard.

The fat man and I gently moved the bowl from the cupboard to the chopping board.

Soon Shirey Yang came back with the wolf-eye flashlight from the room.

The fat man and I worked together to move the cupboard about one person's distance away from the wall.

The fat man was panting from exhaustion and said: "There are not many monks in this ruined temple.

Why are there so many bowls on the bowl shelf?

They are all useless and are gathering dust."

I took the wolf-eye flashlight and carefully looked at the secret door on the wall and said, "Isn't it obvious?

So many bowls and plates have two functions.

One is to block the line of sight and prevent people from discovering the secret door behind the cupboard.

Secondly, if someone wants to move the cupboard, these fragile bowls are the best alarm device.

Little Fatty, you don’t know how to carry out revolutionary work.”

The color of the door is the same as the wall.

There is no handle to open the door.

It looks like someone has carved the shape of a door on the wall.

It looks a little strange under the strong light of the wolf eye.

I asked the fat man: "How did you discover such a hidden door and it was blocked by a cupboard?"

The fat man said with some pride: "This is due to my many years of revolutionary actions against my mother's wits and courage.

When I was a child, I always I stole the brown sugar and jujubes from my mother's workplace, and hid them in the cupboards, covering them with bowls.

As soon as I entered the kitchen, I unconsciously rummaged through the cupboards.

Sure enough, they were on the last floor.

Three steamed buns were found behind the bowl."

"Where is the door?

I asked you how you discovered the door.

You told me that you used your years of intuition and keen judgment to discover the three steamed buns.

Comrade Wang Kaixuan, please answer the organization's questions seriously."

I was also hungry, thinking of the fat man eating it all.

Three steamed buns made him furious.

"The door is not simple.

You can see it when you take away the bowl and the steamed buns," the fat man said disapprovingly.

After observing the door for a long time, ShiryYang said to me: "I looked carefully and couldn't tell if there was any mechanism on the door.

I think we should try to go in."

I nodded, ShiryYang said to me the sap I had just given to the fat man.

He poked the door hard with his fire stick, and the door creaked open.

Shiry Yang glanced around the door with his wolf eyes.

The five-foot-square room was dark without any light and without any furnishings.

It was an empty room.

"Why is the empty house so mysterious?

I thought there was some treasure in it."

The fat man was disappointed when he saw that it was an empty house.

Shiry Yang and I also looked at each other.

There was nothing in this room, which was really beyond our expectation.

Just when we wanted to go into the house for further observation, we suddenly heard the sound of roosters crowing in the distance.

It turned out that it was almost dawn before we knew it.

The fat man and I quickly moved the cupboard back to its original position, and then put the bowl back into the cupboard in a hurry.

Shiry Yang quickly cleaned the traces on the ground.

After doing all this, I heard the sound of the morning bell coming from the backyard of the temple.

In a short while the monks would get up to do morning lessons, so we quickly sneaked back to the room
