Chapter 504: Dangerous Breath

"The key figures? Are they majoring in archaeology? Or...a good guy in the Tao?"

Xu Yongnian said: "Old Zhang, stop guessing. Mr. Qiu, the location you mentioned before is probably here, right?"

Zhong Yue looked at a gap drawn with white chalk, "I can't say exactly where the location is. In short, it's just behind this wall."

After all, Zhong Yue’s ink charming world is not a perspective. He only said it when he felt the yin and yang of the world and found the strangeness of this wall. The reason why the archaeological excavation document of the No. 225 Grottoes was approved is because the possibility of restoration of the murals on the stone wall was too low and there was no scientific research value. In a few years, it is estimated that the paintings on it will be completely eroded and peeled off, and this place will become a real grotto, not the Mogao Grottoes in Dunhuang.

If valuable cultural relics can be excavated from behind the stone wall, it will be considered as the purpose of the content.

"That's how I'm just not sure? Lao Xu, how did you get the archaeological approval? Isn't this absurd thing? No, no, I don't agree to blind excavation."

Xu Yongnian frowned, "Let's open a small hole from here and slowly drill inside to see if there will be an empty layer."

"I don't agree. What if the wall collapses? This has been eroded after thousands of years of wind, and this risk cannot be taken."

Xu Yongnian frowned and said, "Old Zhang, you two archaeological teams are responsible for assisting. I invite you in to see that you are old and embarrassing you to pull the cordon around you. You are really angry. If you go down the archaeological shovel, you are 100% sure? According to you, all archaeological activities should not be carried out. Xiao Zhao, if you find someone to be responsible, just do what I said."

The old man's face changed, "You! Okay, when something happens, I see if you, Xu Yongnian, can you afford it! Let's go! Let's go and let Professor Xu bring a cordon!"

Zhong Yue looked at the old man who talked the most and left with his hips, and also snorted. Such people who talked a lot were really annoyed.

The slow drill bit slowly drilled down. Xu Yongnian pointed out for a while, then turned around and smiled and said, "Mr. Qiu, I really made you laugh at me just now."

"This is the original mural manuscript of Qiushan's repair. Professor Xu, do you want to leave a photo?"

Xu Yongnian said in surprise: "Really? It will be repaired so soon? It's so great. I'll ask someone to deal with it later. I didn't expect that Mr. Qiu Shan's work efficiency is so fast. If he can continue to cooperate in the future, I think it would be an honor for our Dunhuang academic archaeological team."

Zhong Yue smiled slightly and said nothing.

"Professor, I found the empty layer."

Xu Yongnian showed surprise and said, "Don't drill deeper and try how big the space is with the probe. Mr. Qiu, this time I thank you again. I'll make a reservation for this meal tonight."

Zhong Yue smiled and said, "Then I'm just waiting."

"It seems that there is really a different cave. Qiushan, I will take you to another cave."

"Ah? Are you not staying here anymore?"

Ji Wang said: "It will take half a day to explore and excavate and build protective measures. It is already the fastest speed to be able to unearth within three days. Do you still want to see what is inside today? Don't think about it."

"That's how..." Zhong Yue was also a little disappointed. He thought he could really witness some rare treasures hidden behind this wall.

In the past month, Ji Wang and Zhong Yue have also repaired many grottoes. However, although each repair can increase the number of Buddha-shaped Buddhas, it has never triggered the inclusion of rare books. Zhong Yue also felt very strange. Logically speaking, the subsequent repairs should also include rare books, but no systematic prompts were obtained.

"This cave has never been opened to tourists, and few people even come."

Zhong Yue was a little depressed when he saw the half-man-high cave. He couldn't even get in, and a hammer was opened. Ji Wang bent down and said, "Come in with me."

"Ji Wang, do you really want to go in?"

Monk Ji Wang turned around and smiled and said, "What's wrong?"

"It's a bit crowded here..."

"It'll be a little better inside."

Zhong Yue: “…”

It's so narrow outside, how good can it be?

Fortunately, Zhong Yue is quite tall, and if he had a fat man coming over, it would have been a problem to squeeze in.

"What's there in this?"

Ji Wang said, "You will know when you walk in with me."

The two of them hunched over and walked in for more than twenty steps. Although they were a little wider, they still couldn't stand up.

"Sit down."

"sit?"

Ji Wang nodded and said, "Sit. This cave is called Bingling Grottoes."

"Bingling?"

"Yes. Bingling, in Tibetan, is a simplification of "Xianba Bingling", which means "Thousand Buddhas" and "100,000 Maitreya Buddhas"."

"Are there so many Buddha niches here?" Zhong Yue looked up at the surroundings, and seemed to have not seen any other Buddha statues except for a few one foot tall.

Ji Wang nodded and said, "When I was a child, my master brought me here. I asked the same question at that time. He told me that only those with deep Buddhist ties can see the 100,000 Maitreya Buddha. Then I have been practicing Buddhism for so many years, but I still haven't been able to understand the Zen meaning here, so I want to ask Qiushan, you can see what special places are here."

"Ji Wang, you are so proud. I said that I am just a layman in Buddhist culture, and I am far less proficient than you."

"No, the Buddha's fate and spirituality have nothing to do with learning, it's just a kind of spirituality for Buddhism."

Zhong Yue said, "Okay, I'll try it."

“I will recite the scriptures for you.”

"No, I want to sit still by myself."

Ji Wang was stunned and said, "That's OK."

The weather outside was a little hot, but sitting in this grotto, the temperature dropped by at least five degrees. Zhong Yue closed his eyes and sat quietly, as if the air was free, the ink rhyme slowly dissipated and stretched out around.

Perhaps this is just an exaggeration. This kind of 100,000,000, which appear in paintings or stone carvings, usually only describes a large number. There are not so many that are truly displayed in art forms. There are still people who still draw hundreds of birds, but 100,000 Maitreya Florida, Zhong Yue, asks that in this world, there may be no prospects, Buddhists who will draw so many Buddha statues. Such projects cannot be completed in a few years or more.

Mo Yun attached to the stone wall, but still found nothing. Just as Zhong Yue was about to give up, he suddenly discovered a black hole in the darkness directly above!

It actually made Zhong Yue’s Mo Yun feel a sense of danger!
