Chapter 1115 – Rattlesnake Minding His Own Business

“Peng Fei, what did you guys do just now? How come I didn’t see you guys inside?”

Although this temple wasn’t small, it was already in disrepair, the only road that could be traveled was the one that Zhuang Rui and the others had walked on just now, if Peng Fei and the others had entered inside as well, it was impossible for them not to see it.

“Didn’t go anywhere! Just accompanied that little Japanese to stay in the Da Xiong Bao Dian.”

Peng Fei replied with a depressed face, in his opinion, this little Japanese must have a problem in his head, not to mention kowtowing to those big Buddhas, after worshiping them, he also walked around several times before and after.

If it is not Peng Fei see the day late, hard to pull Nakagawa out of the words, it is estimated that this old boy can sleep in the night, but also said what to listen to the teachings of the Buddha? This is not bullshit!

“Okay, let’s eat! Tomorrow morning we go back, this trip is not in vain, at least see the mirage.”

Zhuang Rui walked to the pot of broth has been burned rolled next to the iron pot, pick up the ladle to give himself a bowl of boiling hot mutton soup, learn from the fierce look, squatting in the steps below to drink up, with his gray and yellow clothes and indistinguishable color of the hair, but also a little bit of Northwest peasants.

“Should have gone out a long time ago, this desert which is a place for people to stay ah! I haven’t washed my face for almost a week.”

Peng Fei also sang a bowl of mutton soup, squatted to Zhuang Rui side, he followed Zhuang Rui in these years, in and out of all the star hotels, blissfully forgetting that when he used to be in the army, he also used to be in the tropical jungle full of leeches and mosquitoes to walk and lie on the ground for three days and three nights.

“Right, right, Peng is right, let’s go out earlier! Look …… we don t wash our faces all right, what has Xiao Lei become.”

Xiao Jia, who had a low-grade fever on the side, also nodded repeatedly after hearing Peng Fei’s words, he was too embarrassed to say that he wanted to go out, but he pulled out the only female in the team.

Although these students were not from very good families, they hadn’t suffered this kind of pain either! Riding on top of a camel for the past few days, it was estimated that their asses were going to wear out calluses.

“You kid, you’re just slick, we’re doing archaeological work, can we still pick the environment? I tell you, some field archaeology, the environment is even worse than this, those corpses that have not decayed, can make you even spit out the overnight meal, if you can’t do it, don’t learn this line of work.”

Although Dr. Ren usually didn’t talk a lot, but at this moment when he slammed his face, it made several graduate trainees immediately shut their mouths.

“It’s not like we’re doing this after graduation.”

Xiao Jia whispered unconvincingly, his voice was so light that only he could hear it, but Xiao Jia was telling the truth, the job after they graduated had already been found, and it was in Zhuang Rui’s Lighting Museum.

Just Xiao Jia and others do not know, their future big boss, is now squatting with them to drink mutton soup, if Xiao Jia knows, it is estimated that there are not so many whining words.

Of course, with Zhuang Rui’s current status of insight, will not go and Xiao Jia, these people born after 80s, can eat this kind of suffering, has been considered quite good.

“Brother Ren, it’s better to take some pictures tomorrow! Let’s hand these things over to the local cultural relics bureau, as for how they handle it, that’s their business.”

Zhuang Rui didn’t pay attention to Xiao Jia and the others, but discussed with Dr. Ren in a low voice, although this ancient temple had no more excavation value, its architecture itself was worth studying.

What’s more, some of the halls are made of exquisite materials, even after hundreds of thousands of years, the preservation is still very good, especially some of the murals in the halls, also has a very high artistic value.

Of course, the reason why these halls can be well preserved, and the local climate is also related, if this is put into the whole day drizzle flying Jiangnan, it is estimated that there will be steelmaking technology, the object will be rotten almost.

“Good, there are murals and text place, we are given to shoot down, these are also very precious information, next time must come again, Zhuang Rui, now in the cultural relics market, these first-hand topography is very valuable ah!”

This time to the desert, their preparation is not very full, like the rice paper did not bring in, this temple quite a few inscriptions are worth leaving the topography.

As for the topography to sell money, is Ren Chunqiang and Zhuang Rui joke, but he is right, recently in Beijing Panjiayuan, really popular ancient inscriptions topography, if it is a good quality first-hand topography, can sell thousands of tens of thousands to.

This also led to a lot of cultural relics dealers in Beijing door, change the line of business to do the stone dealers, run to the Shandong side of the order stone monument, and then ask people to carve on the scriptures, find a piece of fertile ground buried composted for half a month, take out and then topography, is definitely a good business.

“Brother Zhuang, how do we sleep at night? Are we going to squeeze in with the Buddha in the Mahamudra, or are we going to sleep outside in a tent?”

There is not much entertainment in this desert, after eating and drinking, Peng Fei started to ask for instructions from Zhuang leader for the night, the leader of this archaeological team is the same as the sports program, the team members have to eat, drink and sleep under his control.

Zhuang Rui thought for a moment and said: “Go to the main hall and set up a tent! I see that the roof beams are still sturdy and won’t press on us.”

Put so many halls but also sleep in the open air tent, that is not Zhuang Rui’s style, then again Zhuang Rui students are also experienced tomb exploration, although I do not dare to say that sleeping on the coffin board, but sleep next to a few clay Bodhisattva, he still does not have any psychological barriers.

After extinguishing the bonfire in front of the temple gate, the people have picked up their tents, they are ready to enter the temple, this is also a novel experience for them to hang out in the temple to borrow a room.

“Baga ……”

Just let Zhuang Rui and others did not expect is, this has not yet stepped into that dilapidated temple door it, Nakagawa suddenly jumped up, a face of indignation blocked the way of the crowd.

“Yan, what did he say? Ghost possessed or something? What kind of neurosis is he committing?”

Zhuang Rui was a bit puzzled, this little Japanese was quite honest all the way ah! What’s going on here? Can’t it be that just now worshipped the Buddha, this spirit is possessed?

“Brother Zhuang, he …… said that this is a holy place of Buddhism, you are not allowed to go in and desecrate the Buddha, especially this woman, even more not allowed to go in.”

When Xiao Yan translated Zhongchuan’s words, he was a bitter smile, nowadays Buddhism is also advancing with the times, where are there so many rules?

In these two years, the Internet is prevalent, out of a star monk, not to mention, even a famous XX temple presided over the abbot master, are open to the majority of women comrades, you a Japanese, as far as in this no one at the ancient temples to be more serious?

And the Sui and Tang dynasties of Buddhism, compared to now is no better, that will be the status of the monk is very high, the rules of the temple honestly do a big landlord, if not rules, bullying men and women is also a common thing, and now are decayed into such, but also have to do something for posterity, right?

“Xiao Yan, tell him what is called wine and meat through the intestines, Buddha sitting in the heart, grandmother, just now those mutton he did not eat a little less ah!”

Zhuang Rui also cried and laughed when he heard this, but he knew that the Japanese are more serious and are fanatical in practicing their religion, so he didn’t really get angry.

“Brother Zhuang, in …… Nakagawa said that it is okay to go in, but you can only sleep in the courtyard, you can not go to the main hall, otherwise the Buddha will blame.”

Yan Xiaowei and Nakagawa exchanged some after, very unhappy to translate his words, in his opinion, this little Japan is purely farting with his pants …… off and superfluous, care so much?

“Tell him, he loves to sleep in the courtyard, let him stay in the courtyard by himself, let’s go into the great hall.”

Zhuang Rui is too lazy to theorize with Zhongchuan, he is not going to make a bow to the Buddha, where is the argument of offending or not offending ah! This action of Zhongchuan, isn’t it a dog with a rat meddling in his own business?

Nakagawa saw that he was unable to dissuade Zhuang Rui and the others, after stomping his feet in anger, he also carried his own tent package and followed into the hall, but his mouth kept muttering a lot, and after entering the hall, he even kneeled down to the three Buddha statues.

“Hm? This little Japanese is a bit off ah?”

Zhuang Rui saw Nakagawa to the three statues of Buddha respectful look, the heart always feel some wrong, although Buddhism is also very prevalent in Japan, but China is not the birthplace of Buddhism, Nakagawa does not need to go a long way to run here to show his piety, right?

What’s more, Zhuang Rui has always suspected that Nakagawa this Dunhuang, must not have good intentions, perhaps there is what the secret did not say.

Only just Zhuang Rui used the aura to check the many halls within this thousand years old temple, and did not find any clues, which only put away the suspicion, but now Zhongchuan’s performance, and let Zhuang Rui in the heart muttered up.

“Buddha statue …… Buddha statue …… oops!” Zhuang Rui dead stared at these three body surface color plastic has fallen almost the Buddha statue, suddenly slapped his head and shouted.

“Zhuang Rui, what’s wrong?” Dr. Ren beside him was startled by Zhuang Rui’s action, why did he hit his head for good reason?

“Dr. Ren, in the Sui and Tang dynasties, those temples collected money, most of them were hidden in what place ah?”

Zhuang Rui eyes light, casually threw down the hands of the tent, walked to the center of a statue of Buddha in front, reached out and rubbed the feet of the Buddha, the look is simply more pious than kneeling on the ground in the Chuan.

“Cellar chanting, or else a dark room.”

Dr. Ren for a moment did not grasp the meaning of Zhuang Rui’s words, and when he saw Zhuang Rui this look, he could not help but laugh and said, “Zhuang Rui, are you saying …… that inside these three big Buddhas, there are treasures hidden by the ancients?”

According to historical records, this kind of thing in the Sui and Tang dynasties when Buddhism flourished, indeed exists, more some rich and powerful temples, simply directly will copper financial financialization shaped Buddha, and then then cover up with colorful plastic.
