"this---!"
Yang Sine was very troubled. If it were something else, he would not hesitate. He asked people to dig it open. What a big deal, but this is a statue of a Bodhisattva. Although he does not believe in Buddhism, his mother is a devout Buddhist. With so many believers around here, it would be fine if he digs out the stone statue based on the words of this kid. If it is not, then the blame will be great. If you are not lucky, you will encounter any natural disasters and man-made disasters, and your career will be worrying. The people will definitely say that it was caused by your move.
But what Xiong said was so firm that he even bet on his life, which made him hesitate a little.
Yang Sine secretly glanced at her mother, but she didn't know that Mrs. Yang was in trouble. She was a Buddhist believer. If she was not Yang Sine's mother, she would certainly object to her like others. But with this relationship, she would be unable to speak.
Seeing that his mother was silent, he suddenly looked at Monk Jiudeng again and asked, "Master Abbot, what do you think?"
"Amitabha, monks do not lie, I am unwilling to do so, but everything depends on Mr. Yang."
Monk Jiudeng's tone was indifferent. Although the monk Jiudeng still had a compassionate and merciful expression, he also had fifteen buckets of water in his heart, but he was better at hiding it because he didn't know the reason. However, when he heard Brother Xiong say that he had seen him digging a pit and burying a statue of a Bodhisattva with his own eyes, he felt suspicious, because he had indeed not done these things. How could Brother Xiong see? If Brother Xiong was talking nonsense, how could he bet on his life? This is the governor. No one in Yangzhou can offend him, but if not, then there is only one reason, that is, this is a case at all.
Therefore, he was unwilling to dig out this Bodhisattva statue from the bottom of his heart, but when he saw so many believers help him speak, he guessed Yang Sine's fear in his heart. Knowing that Yang Sine did not dare to move this Bodhisattva statue easily, he simply said that I can do whatever he wants, and acted very naturally and confidently. If he strongly opposed it, it would arouse Yang Sine's suspicion.
Although Han Yi, who was watching from a distance, could not hear what they said in detail, he still heard the yelling of the believers. He guessed in his heart, laughed secretly, you are a genius of death, if you are not sure, how could I let Brother Xiong take this risk? Don’t struggle, you are dead this time.
Sure enough, when Yang Sine saw that the monk Jiudeng looked calm, she seemed to not take Brother Xiong's words at all, and gradually turned to Monk Jiudeng. She didn't mention this anymore and asked Brother Xiong: "When did you see the abbot burying this Guanyin stone statue?"
When the monk Jiudeng heard this, he was secretly happy.
Brother Xiong said, "When you say to Mr. Yang, it was the night before the Bodhisattva statue was discovered."
Yang Sine asked again: "When exactly? Who else is there?"
Brother Xiong pretended to think about it and said, "About the third day of the day, there were three of them at that time, but there were only moonlights at that time, so the boy recognized the old bald donkey. The boy did not see clearly the appearance of the other two and dared not speak nonsense."
Yang Sine said: "Since that's the case, how can you be sure that one of them is the abbot."
Brother Xiong glared at Monk Jiudeng and said, "Because I know this old bald donkey turned into ashes, the boy is sure that it must be him. I also heard him with his own ears pouring soybeans into the mud pit and asking someone to pour water. His voice will never be wrong."
Yang Sine looked at the monk Jiudeng again and said, "Abbot, at the third night before I discovered the Bodhisattva statue, where are you?"
This kid is really cunning! The monk Jiudeng cursed inwardly and said, "When you say that to Mr. Yang, I will go to bed and rest every night. Ten years have passed, and that day is no exception."
Yang Sine said: "Can anyone prove it?"
Monk Jiudeng said, "I am a monk and I have always slept alone, I'm afraid no one can prove it." He felt very wronged. He was indeed sleeping at that time. It was impossible for the monk to sleep alone. Even if someone proved it, it must be a monk in Tianji Temple, and it was still not enough to be sure. Therefore, the result could only be a separate argument and arguing.
But Jiudeng felt that this would be beneficial to him, because except for Brother Xiong, no one could confirm that he was digging a hole at that time, and he was really sleeping!
Yang Sine thought about it, everyone was sleeping in the third day of the day, and Jiudeng had no wife, but no one could prove whether Brother Xiong’s words were true. You have to use evidence, either you say anything you say, so he said to Brother Xiong again: "Unless you have certain evidence, I will not be able to listen to your own words and alarm the Bodhisattva."
As soon as these words were spoken, believers on both sides shouted that Yang Gong was wise and asked Yang Sine to punish Brother Xiong severely.
Brother Xiong suddenly said, "Apart from this drop of water, the old bald donkey's statue was also seen through by the boy. It had nothing to do with the Buddha's relationship. It was all this old bald donkey's obstruction."
As soon as these words were said, they were silent and everyone's faces were shocked.
Yang Sine said with an Oh, "Are you serious?"
Brother Xiong suddenly took out a small cloth bag from his arms, poured out a pill from the cloth bag, and said, "Please look at it, this is the magic medicine I made. If I encounter that statue of God, I will be taken away by the statue."
Monk Jiudeng frowned slightly, but that was all, and he didn't say much.
This one can be available!
Yang Sine said to the monk Jiudeng: "Master Abbot, I wonder what you mean?"
Of course, Monk Jiudeng didn't want to, but so many people were watching, including the top leader in Yangzhou. If he refused, wouldn't he tell people that he was pretending to be a god and nodded immediately and said, "I have no objection. I will now order my disciples to invite the statue of God here."
Brother Xiong immediately said, "Mr. Yang, this old bald donkey is cunning, I'm afraid he will interfere with it."
When Yang Sine saw that the monk Jiudeng was very good at getting along, the boy said with an old bald donkey on the left and an old bald donkey on the right, and couldn't help but say with a grin: "You kid is so uneducated. This matter has not been cut off yet, but you have repeatedly offended the abbot. If you call this again, don't blame me for punishing you."
Brother Xiong was so scared that he shivered all over and said honestly: "Yes, boy understands."
But Yang Sine didn't say she wanted to send someone, but just glanced at Monk Jiudeng.
Monk Jiudeng understood it and complained secretly, but said, "I wonder if Mr. Yang can send one or two guards to help?"
Yang Sine nodded repeatedly and agreed.
In fact, he was still a little suspicious. The key is that Brother Xiong said it too firmly and could bet on his life. If he was not sure, how could this be?
Monk Jiudeng naturally knew Yang Sine's psychology, so he didn't even dare to say a word, because after all, he was just a monk with no power or power. The Yang family, huh, the Guanlong clan, was not at the same level in Yangzhou.
Soon, the two guards followed the four monks to Tianji Temple.
Monk Jiudeng closed his eyes and pondered, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Yang Sine also quickly asked someone to bring a Hu bench for Mrs. Yang to sit down. After all, she is old and will be tired after standing for a long time.
When Mrs. Yang saw that Brother Xiong was still kneeling on the ground, she was so young and so fat and so cute, she couldn't bear it, so she said to Yang Sine: "Let him stand up."
"yes."
Yang Sine immediately said to Brother Xiong: "You stand up first."
Mrs. Yang smiled and said, "What's your name?"
Brother Xiong was originally a heartless person, and he was innocent by nature. Seeing this old lady’s kind-hearted look, he was not afraid and said, “Old lady, the boy’s name is Brother Xiong.”
"Brother Xiong?" Old Mrs. Yang smiled and said, "Then are there anyone else in your family?"
Brother Xiong shook his head and said with a gloomy expression: "My parents are the only son. Now that they have passed away, I am the only one left."
Mrs. Yang sighed softly. Although it was impossible to prove whether Xiong's words were true or false at this time, Xiong's parents' suicide had been confirmed. She was kind-hearted and believed in Buddhism. She was compassionate and sympathized with Xiong's heart. She thought that even if what he said was not true, my son would not blame him.
After waiting for a while, the statue of the god was finally invited.
Those believers bowed and bowed one after another.
Even Mrs. Yang stood up and bowed.
Yang Sine said to Brother Xiong: "Now the statue of God has been invited. If you say your magic medicine is useful, then you can try it."
Brother Xiong took up his courage and walked forward. Although he didn't know whether it was possible, he believed in Han Yi very much and slowly moved to the right hand of the statue with the pill. In fact, the statue was created by precise measurement. It was not high, just a little more than one meter. The raised right hand was slightly extended. When an adult kneeled on the ground and raised the tray, it was closest to his right hand.
Suddenly, the pill in Brother Xiong's hand flew towards the right hand of the statue.
An uproar around!
Brother Han did not lie to me! Brother Xiong was immediately overjoyed.
Yang Sine was also shocked: "Why is this?"
Brother Xiong was confident and immediately said, "If you go back to the master, it's all because of the magnet."
Yang Sine said in surprise: "Magnet?"
"good!"
Brother Xiong pointed to the right hand of the statue and said, "There must be a magnet hidden in the right hand of this statue."
Although Han Yi did not see it with his own eyes, unless there was really magic power in this ancient world, how could it be possible to take objects from a distance? It must be related to magnets. With the design of this statue, Han Yi can completely confirm that there must be magnets hidden in the right hand of the statue. Otherwise, why don’t you make a bigger statue? How loud is it!
The reason is that if it is too large and the distance is relatively far, the magnet does not have such a large suction force.
Yang Sine winked at a guard beside him. The guard understood it. He stepped forward and looked at the right hand of the statue carefully. He tapped it a few times. He looked at the rest of the statue, then reached out and knocked it. Then he took an iron ornament and placed it on the right hand of the statue and tried it. Then he put it on the other part of the statue. Then he walked back and said, "Report to Mr. Yang, there is indeed a weirdness hidden in the right finger of the statue."
Mrs. Yang frowned when she heard this, and her displeasure appeared on it.
Yang Sine looked at the Jiudeng Kage with his eyes slanted and said, "Master Abbot, how can I solve this matter?"
