Chapter 582

"You're here?"

The old man didn't seem to be surprised when he saw me coming, "By the way, Shi Yaoqian is fine too, but it's just a minor problem, it's been taken care of."

No wonder he seemed to be treated like a god by the people here.

"Tell me, what happened?"

I asked.

In fact, I really want to know what he saw at the bottom of the lake because I always feel that the bottom of the lake is like a gate to hell.

I even want to ask if there is such a thing as the Palace of Hell there.

"I've been through hell for a while, but my life is back."

Sure enough, the old man still remembered what happened, and said, "It turns out that there is really an underwater world at the bottom of the lake. There is a very strange temple, and many stone statues and sculptures have been buried. It's a pity."

He felt sorry all the time.

"Then what else did you find?"

I asked quickly.

He thought for a while and continued, "No more. It's just that I'm curious why there is an underwater world under such a small lake. By the way, I remembered that there is a coffin under the water, a wooden coffin. "

"What, is it an underground tomb?"

In the early years, I learned that many cemeteries were underwater. There were two possibilities. Either the tomb owner was buried under water during his lifetime, mainly to prevent tomb robbers. This trick was very effective, almost There are very few cases of underwater tomb robbing recorded in history, because there are many dangers and narrow escapes.

Naturally, the gold-touching captains would not take their lives for granted.

After weighing it, I can only give up with regret.

The other type is that the cemetery was first located in a low-lying area. Due to external forces such as geological changes or landslides and mudslides, it was underwater. However, such ancient tombs generally do not last long. Without waterproofing measures, most of the things inside There are only dregs left, eroded by time.

"Not an ancient tomb."

It seemed that I was overthinking it, because the old man firmly believed that it was a temple.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, I can see everything clearly inside."

He told me that he opened the coffin and found an old monk inside. It looked like he had been dead for some time, but the body was well preserved.

"What?"

I was a little surprised.

"I suspect that the old monk is the one who came to the site when this house was built a few years ago."

The old man just had suspicions and no evidence, but he was inseparable and couldn't tell the Shi family yet, otherwise he would get into trouble.

"No wonder..."

I guess that the monk actually only wanted this temple as his burial place, and the little Taoist priest didn't know the mystery at first, so he sold it because he was short of money.

"There is indeed a conspiracy."

I sighed.

Shi Yaoqian was cured by the old man, and immediately the Shi family worshiped him like a Bodhisattva.

And some people outside are asking for medicine, saying that the old man is a god descending to earth. But because it was a little quieter here in the Shi family, the old man said that it was better not to disturb the good monk in the temple. Although he was looking for a cemetery for himself, he had no bad intentions and it was not inconvenient to disturb him.

I also told him what happened recently.

Especially about the key that the boy unlocked.

"What, he opened it?"

The old man, like me, looked shocked, as if the end of the world was coming, and he looked excited, even a little horrified. It seemed that he was both worried and a little surprised. Could it be that he had expected the contents of this box, but he was never sure.

"That's right."

I said, "But he's dead."

"this……"

I explained the boy's cause of death in detail.

The old man was stunned for a moment after hearing this, it was like a fantasy.

"By the way, did you bring that thing?" The old man asked me what was in the box.

I shook my head, how could I carry such an important thing with me?

"By the way, I also discovered something strange at that young man's house. That night..." I was about to talk about the armed monks, when suddenly I noticed someone making a noise in front of me.

"There is a monk outside who is asking for alms."

"Monk?"

Hearing what the butler said, I felt like I had been hit in the head. Now I felt a sense of fear towards the two monks.

"Oh, really, I'll go take a look."

The old man said at this time, "Go and meet Buddhist friends."

Before I had time to stop the old man, he had already walked several meters away. No, I have a very bad feeling in my heart.

Soon, there was a monk carrying a broken bowl looking towards the back of the yard.

As if looking for something.

I feel more and more something is wrong.

"Amitabha……"

At this time, the monk who was begging for alms was watching and chanting.

"Amitabha."

The old man took a step forward and replied.

The two seemed to exchange a tacit greeting.
