Chapter 106 - Bodhi under the Bodhi tree (1)
I sighed. It was really a coincidence. The only person with any clues left died just like that. It was really depressing!
However, when Guo Qiang was speaking, I always felt a chill down my spine. Even in broad daylight, when the sun was high in the sky, I still felt as if my entire body was in an ice cellar.
Speaking of which, wasn't the fisherman's death a bit too coincidental?
The Monk that inexplicably took the Villagers away, along with that little girl, as well as Lei Tong, Blue Rose's method of committing crimes, there are simply too many problems.
I said to Guo Qiang: "Since that place is a tourist attraction, it shouldn't be hard to find. You should know how to go, right?"
Guo Qiang nodded his head and replied: Although I have never been there, but I know the way. There is a bus stop outside the town, and every day there are two shifts of vehicles that go to the Cloud Mountain, but you do not have to wait, you have helped me solve the problem of the Hundred Birds of a day Phoenix District, although I am unable to give you the Bodhi Fruit, but I can still send a special carriage to send you to the lake, but when we arrive, this boat will not be under our control, you guys need to look for a cruise ship and climb up the Cloud Mountain.
I nodded. I had no opinion on how to get there, as long as I could get there.
When I asked Guo Qiang to help me make the arrangements, Guo Qiang said: "Before we leave, our Polygon Subhuti wants to meet with everyone and can be considered to be thanking our town."
I shook my head. I'm more straightforward when I do things. I'm the most lazy to deal with polite things, and I like to get straight to the point.
Just as I was about to reject, that Guo Qiang said that the Polygon actually came personally, and since she had come, it would be embarrassing for me to refuse her directly, so I decided to meet her face to face.
However, when we met, I found that it was very different from what I had imagined.
Initially, I thought that meeting in a living room, drinking tea and chatting for a while. Even if there was nothing much to talk about, at the very least, we would greet each other when we meet.
Guo Qiang brought us to a guest hall, but they didn't let me in, instead they let me wait outside for a bit. I carefully observed the six Monk s standing outside the guest hall, each of them holding onto a stick, split into two rows, and just stood there without moving. They said that the Monk looked more like a bodyguard, like a human model, and didn't even bat an eyelid.
The main door of the living room was wide open, but I was still unable to see what was going on inside, because outside the main door was a gray curtain. The curtain was translucent, and one could vaguely see a person sitting inside.
Although I already know that this elder is definitely an old man, this curtain is too much of an obstacle to the line of sight, making it impossible to see the appearance of the person inside.
When the six Monk saw Guo Qiang, they all lowered their heads and greeted him.
I was surprised for a moment before I asked this so called Eldest Senior, "Bro, I didn't expect that your identity was not ordinary!"
Guo Qiang laughed awkwardly and explained to me: "Master has three disciples, I am indeed the eldest senior brother, but I am merciful, and everyone who comes to this town is a buddhist disciple, regardless of seniority, so this eldest senior brother of mine is just an empty title, not worth mentioning."
I nodded. It didn't matter if it was the eldest senior brother or the second senior brother, the problem was, why didn't they let us in? Could it be that the Monk was trying to do something like "let the curtain fall"?
For the sake of politeness, I have never said this question, but that Guo Qiang probably saw through it, so Guo Qiang smiled and explained to me: "I am really sorry for the trouble, every year when Polygon comes to this month, he will go into seclusion to rest, we have a saying here that we do not see Buddha, which means, I am not a believer of Buddhism, it is forbidden to see Polygon during this month, if not, Polygon will break through the forbidden zone, so please forgive me."
After listening to the other party's explanation, I asked back, "No, it's fine if you don't say it, but the more you talk about it, the darker it gets. Since we can't meet this month, why is there a need to take the initiative to meet with us? Don't you think there's a problem with that?"
