Chapter 26 Chapter 25 A Dream in Xishan

Just as he was talking, Di Chun came in and said, "My lord, someone asked to see me. He said he was the housekeeper of the An Mansion, and his surname was Wu." Di Renjie's eyes flashed: "It's about time, please invite him in." At that time, Di Chun invited him to see him. The old Wu was forty or fifty years old, neatly dressed, and looked shrewd and capable. Seeing Di Renjie sitting at the head, his kindness revealed a bit of wisdom. Respectfully, said: "Master Di, this villain was ordered by my master to present this book. The master said that maybe you will need it when you go to Yique." Holding it up, he said: "I originally wanted Miss Ayu to come over, because the lady was worried about the master's injury and wanted to wait in front of the bed, so I asked the younger one to see you off. Before leaving, the master ordered that there are ancestors hidden under the Yique Relics, Master Di is ordered to destroy those harmful things. It is justified, but please bring the small ones. If there are some unimportant things among them, take one or two back and leave them for my master. A thought."

Di Renjie took the book, nodded and said, "Yes, that's not bad. Uncle Wu has been in Anfu for many years, right?" Old Wu hurriedly said: "Don't dare to be called that by an adult, so I will call the young one Old Wu. The young one was originally with the old man. After the old man passed away, he followed the old man." Di Renjie flipped through the book and said with a casual smile, "Did Old Wu follow your grandfather from the Western Regions?" Old Wu was taken aback for a moment, and then replied, "The little one has never been to the Western Regions."

Di Renjie snorted, but didn't say anything more.Just look down at the words in the book. The blue face of the book turned over the first page, and it was written "Buddha Said Maitreya Dacheng Sutra", with a small line of small characters on the side: Yao Qin Kucha Kingdom Sanzang Kumarajiva Translated.It turned out to be a hand-copied Buddhist scripture, with thousands of characters and many verses, Di Renjie smiled to himself, no wonder when Ayu peeked at the book back then, he found it complicated and difficult to understand, so he impatiently read it carefully.I turned to the end again, and sure enough, there was another paragraph in the blank space on the last page, which recorded all kinds of things about "Concubine Mi's tears". Ayu remembered this paragraph clearly, and it was almost the same as what she said.

Li Yuanfang smiled knowingly when he saw Di Renjie at the side, he expected to gain something, so don't disturb his train of thought at this time, Li Kaigu usually has a headache when he reads a book, so he sat patiently by the side and waited silently. After a long while, Di Renjie smiled slightly, closed the booklet, and said, "Yes, here is more detailed information. If you look for it at the entrance, you will definitely find it." At the same time, he handed the booklet to Li Yuanfang. Seeing that there was a large Buddhist scripture at the beginning, Li Yuanfang jumped over it and turned a few pages, and found that the characters at the back were different from those used to copy the Buddhist scriptures. , It turned out to describe a dream, to the effect that the person who wrote this text went to Xishan to play on the night of the full moon, and fell asleep in a cave due to exhaustion from the journey.I dreamed that a beautiful lotus flower with a diameter of Zhang Xu was blooming layer by layer on the top of the cave, and various flying dancers danced in the air, and there were millions of gods appearing in the flying flowers all over the sky, and there was a young man wearing cassock and holding a tin staff in his right hand. The old traveler led the way and took him into a fairyland, where he saw the ancient Fuxi Emperor and his beautiful daughter, Concubine Mi, the god of Luoshui. Just as he was intoxicated, the dream woke up and he Still in the grotto.

"My lord, I feel that what I had a dream about Yunyun was actually Gao Changgong's own excuse. Is the scene described in this dream a hint of the entrance?" Li Yuanfang asked. "That's right, you all have a look," Di Renjie said, "In my dream, I described such a Buddhist cave in detail: on the top of the cave is a huge lotus flower and flying acrobats, and there are thousands of Buddha statues on the cave wall," he said. Pointing to one of the passages, he said: "The description of this old traveler is still vivid: he is wearing cassock and holding a staff in his right hand - it is the preacher who has been busy in the world - Venerable Kasyapa. point, we can find the real entrance."

Hu Lvchong, Li Kaigu, and Di Chun all gathered around to watch. After a while, Li Kaigu said angrily, "Well, let's just say it. Why do you have to be so superficial? You even pretended it was a dream." Di Renjie said with a smile: "Empress Qi is suspicious by nature. According to the legacy of the ancestral hall, because the Empress Dowager tabooed Gao Changgong's outstanding military achievements, he and Hu Luguang were sent to Yique to find a site for the Empress Dowager and build a Buddhist cave. I think it was Gao Changgong who discovered it. After that secret place, he was very cautious, and after this hand-copied Buddhist scriptures, he seemed to have recorded a false dream. intention of."

Because Li Kaigu didn't know about the ancestral hall in Gaojia Village, Li Yuanfang couldn't help explaining a few words to him. Fortunately, Li Kaigu had always admired King Lanling and Hu Luguang and other famous generals of the Northern Dynasty. Hu Luchong sighed: "Empress Qi ordered Gao Changgong to build the Buddhist cave, and he used a Buddhist scripture as a cover, neither to reveal the secret, nor to keep the spoken language like my predecessors. It really is thoughtful." "That's right, let's see that he didn't get this Buddhist scripture by chance. It is said that when Sakyamuni Buddha passed away, he entrusted Kasyapa with a golden cassock, so the Venerable Kassapa went to Jizu Mountain, sat on the grass and covered it, Sitting in a cross-legged position, he said: I am using supernatural powers to prevent my body from breaking down, and I will keep this cassock. When Maitreya comes out, I will personally pass on the mantle of Sakyamuni Buddha and assist Maitreya in teaching and enlightening all living beings. This "Buddha Says Maitreya Dacheng Sutra" ", it records what happened after Mahakasyapa decided to wait for Maitreya." Di Renjie turned over the Buddhist scriptures and said in detail: "Look here: At that time, the Brahma king poured heavenly scented oil on the top of Mahakasyapa... Mahakasyapa is Awakening from extinction. Dress neatly and expose the right shoulder. Kneel on the ground with right knee and palms together. Hold Sakyamuni Buddhist monk Kali. Give Maitreya this speech... When I approach Nirvana, give me this dharma robe. Order In honor of the World-Honored One..."

Di Renjie paused for a moment, and said: "Firstly, it was the construction of the Buddha Cave in response to this matter, and secondly, isn't it the mission of Venerable Kasyapa to pass on the treasures to those who come later? Presumably, the mystery of the entrance lies in this." .” Everyone thought about it according to the words, and it really made sense, and they couldn't help being very excited. It seemed that the treasure hunting in Yique was a matter of course.Di Renjie looked at the sky, saw Li Kaigu's eagerness to fight, smiled slightly, and said: "Why don't we strike while the iron is hot and set off immediately, now it's only in the afternoon, and it shouldn't be a problem to arrive at Xishan before dark - even though it's been 15 years today, it's still not too late. It's the night of the full moon." Li Yuanfang, Hu Luchong and others were already moved, and everyone naturally agreed in unison, and then heard Di Renjie say: "Wu Uncle doesn't need to go back, just go with Di Chun to buy some fireworks, ropes, etc. I’ve brought a spare.” Fortunately, it’s the Lantern Festival, and all kinds of fireworks are all over the market, so the two of them are not going to mention it.

Di Renjie predicted that Junchen, Hou Sizhi and others would not give up. Although he was not afraid of him, he was afraid that troubles would happen, so he ordered Li Kaigu to go back to the mansion first, bring some troops, and meet up at Xishan; he also asked Hulu to rush to Duan Nine Offices made a trip and whispered a few words to him. Li Yuanfang and Hu Lvchong looked at each other and understood each other.
