The dream of "Tenderness of Iron Hands" begins in Tokyo

============================================

The Buddhist scriptures pavilion is an important place in the temple. It usually stores precious scriptures and books and important documents related to the temple. It is not open to the public, and the same is true for Shangtianzhu Temple.

Tie Shou jumped to the upper floor, and saw that the door of the Sutra Pavilion was closed, so he naturally couldn't rush in, so he could only wait anxiously on the platform.

At that time, the dusk fell, the tourists gradually dispersed, and the empty mountain could only hear the sound of bells and chimes, and the chanting of scriptures was leisurely.Tie Shou raised his eyes and looked down. He saw that the roof tiles and eaves of the temple were scattered high and low, and the mountains in the distance were like barriers and the forests were dense. At this moment, in his eyes, they were as terrifying as giant beasts with teeth and claws.

Iron Hand's heart was filled with unprecedented fear and panic. "Little Junior Sister, where are you?" He stroked Xiao Hui in his arms and muttered to himself.And the little dog seemed to see the sadness of Iron Hand, staring at its master, and whimpered softly.

Fortunately, after a while, Xu Zhu invited Master Hongze and came up with a group of people.

Xu Zhu said to Hong Ze: "Master, let me introduce you. This is Master Iron Catcher from the capital. I told you his name, you must know him. He is known as one of the Four Famous Catchers in Jianghu. "

Hongze was a little surprised, and then saluted with palms together, and said with a smile, "Oh! So it's the four famous arresters! I've seen you for a long time! I've seen Master Tie."

Tie Shou clasped his hands back and said: "Master, you don't need to be too polite! We have just found the whereabouts of the murderer so far. It's an urgent matter. Please allow us to enter the Scripture-Depository Pavilion to check."

Hongze agreed repeatedly, took out the key and opened the courtyard door of the Buddhist scriptures pavilion.

When everyone entered the door, they saw that the Buddhist scriptures pavilion was a two-story pavilion built against the mountain, with gray tiles and yellow walls like other buildings in the temple. It looked nothing special from the outside.Just south of the pavilion is a small platform. A low stone railing is built along the edge of the cliff, on which are placed a lot of flowers and trees. There is a pavilion on the west side, with stone tables and benches in the pavilion. It should be a wonderful scenery to sit and look out into the distance.

Tie Shou put the puppy on the ground, and said softly to it: "Little Hui, good boy! Hurry up and find Miss Yun." The puppy spread its legs and went to sniff around.

Tie Shou walked to the side of the stone railing and looked down, and it was indeed the monk's compound.He walked to the position directly facing the vine boulder below and inspected it carefully, and sure enough, he found a piece of white silk cloth hanging on a hard branch about two feet away from the top of the cliff.The iron hand climbed the stone wall and flew down, and took off the cloth strip.Naturally, he recognized the cloak of the little junior sister, felt a pain in his heart, and stuffed it into his bosom.

At this time, Xiao Hui could only hear "Wow", and Tie Shou hurriedly jumped onto the platform.Everyone looked for the dog barking, but saw the puppy ran to the courtyard behind the Sutra Pavilion, barking at a hole on the edge of the mountain wall.

Tie Shou hurried into the cave, and saw that the inside was not deep or wide, only a large flat stone was placed in the center, with a checkerboard grid drawn on it, and two stone benches beside it.He possessed himself to examine the boulder carefully, and found nothing unusual.

But Xiao Hui jumped on the stone chessboard and yelled at the iron hand non-stop.

Tie Shou really wanted to use his kung fu to move the boulder away, but felt that it was a little rude to do so, he was hesitating whether to do it, when he raised his head and caught a glimpse of the abbot, Master Hongze, following in, staring at his actions, his face frowning. His face looked a little uneasy.

Tieshou's heart moved, and he asked: "Master, may I ask, apart from the normal front and rear side doors, is there any way out of the temple that outsiders don't know?"

Hong Ze had a rather embarrassed expression, and he hesitated: "This... this..."

"Master, this villain has repeatedly committed murders and is ruthless, and now he is absconding with hostages. The most urgent task is to quickly arrest him and prevent further murders. Saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda! The terrain in this temple is the best only for the master." Familiar with it, please give me some advice, Tie will be very grateful!" Tie bowed deeply with his hands.

Hongze hastily bowed in return, and hurriedly said: "It's about human life, how dare I hide it. It's just...but it's also about the safety of this temple, so please take a moment to speak, my lords?"

Xu Zhu understood, and immediately ordered Yang Li to take the arresters and wait outside the Sutra Pavilion.In this way, only Tieshou, Xu Zhu, Wang Yi and Hongze remained in the cave.

Hong Ze took out the purse where he kept his keys, and took out a black Go piece from it, which looked slightly smaller than ordinary chess pieces.Then he walked to the side of the stone chessboard and placed the chess piece in the slightly concave Tianyuan position.I saw the boulder slowly turning to one side, revealing a dark hole on the ground, and there were still stone steps winding down.

Hongze said to Tie Shou and the others: "Amitabha! This is the secret path opened by Master Huili, the founder of this temple, when he built the temple. On the one hand, because of the war at that time, he could hide the monks in the temple and protect the scriptures in case of chaos. Secondly, it is also a shortcut to the cave on the back of the mountain. But as far as I know, after my pilgrimage to the holy rule, the world is peaceful, the country is peaceful and the people are safe. I only went down once during the handover. Only the previous abbots and abbots in this monastery knew of this location. But since I took over this key, I have never left my body. How did this thief know it?" Speaking of this, There was obvious confusion and annoyance in his tone.

Tie Shou said: "Master, we will investigate this leak later. It seems that the murderer must have escaped from here, and now I have to go down immediately to save him. I wonder if there is another trap set up in this cave." ?”

"No, no." Hongze replied hastily: "There is a stone door at the end, you only need to push the rock protruding from the upper right to push the door out, and the outside is the wall hole on the back mountainside."

"Thank you, master, for your guidance." Tie Shou said and turned to Xu Zhu: "Lord Xu, the lord of the city, please stay in the temple to preside over the overall situation. I will arrest you with President Wang."

Xu Zhu said repeatedly: "Okay, okay! Master Tie, be careful!"

Wang Yi moved very quickly, he found two torches in a short while.Tie Shou stuffed Xiao Hui in his arms, took the torch and jumped down the hole first.

The mountain in the cave is rocky, and the road is extremely narrow and only one person can pass through. At first, there are steep steps, but after descending tens of feet, it is just a mud-rock slope, winding all the way down.Taking advantage of the light of the torch, Iron Hand finally found footprints on the muddy ground.The size of the shoe is indeed similar to the one in the Jingshi scroll, and the imprint is deeper, presumably because there is an extra person on the body.

After walking for about half a stick of incense, I saw that the front was slightly open, and there seemed to be a glimmer of dim sky light coming in.Tie Shou signaled Wang Yi to stop, and he used his lightness kung fu to sweep forward.He walked closer and saw that the stone door of the secret passage was already open, outside it was not completely dark, there was twilight light entering the hole in the wall and then penetrating into the secret passage.Tie Shou slid to the door and heard the silence outside, so he called Wang Yi to go into the cave together.

This wall hole is just a half-hole recessed in the mountain wall, it is not a big corner and there is no way to hide, and it is obviously empty at this moment.When the two ran out of the cave, they suddenly found that Lu Mengyun's white cloak was nailed to the big tree on the left with a dagger.

Iron Hand hastily pulled out the dagger and unfolded his shirt, only to see a few lines written in blood on it:

"The moon rises on Dongshan Mountain, on Shiren Ridge. If you want to see your junior sister, go alone."

The iron hands tightly clutching the clothes couldn't help trembling slightly, and the eyes were full of uncontrollable anger and anxiety.This glaring blood meant that even if Lu Mengyun did not die, she must have been injured, and he couldn't help the severe pain in his heart.

"Second Master..." Wang Yi said softly: "It seems that this villain came prepared, and he must have escaped by now. Shirenling is not far from here, which is the mountain to the west. Let's go up immediately and gather people to round up ..."

"No!" Tie Shou said in a deep voice: "This thief seems to be coming for me. Since he left a message like this, if there are too many people going, I'm afraid he will... kill him. I will go up alone first, and you immediately lead people to guard the mountain. Let everyone get in the way. If you see me beeping, come up immediately."

After Tie Shou said that, he used his lightness kung fu and rushed westward.After a short walk, the night fell and the sky was completely dark, and the back mountainside was full of weeds and barren trails. The iron hands were unfamiliar with the path, and they had to jump to the treetops to identify the direction from time to time.Fortunately, the weather was fine, and the last half moon had gradually climbed up. With the twilight of the stars and the moon, Tie Shou was struggling towards the top of Shirenling Mountain.

The wind in the mountains was strong, and the woods were blown uproariously, like the roar of a monster.After all, February is cold in spring, and the temperature in the mountains at night is extremely low. Iron Hands has deep internal skills and he doesn't feel cold, but when he thinks that his junior sister is injured and freezing, he feels a chill in his heart.He adjusted his breathing all the way and tried to keep himself calm, finally, after crossing a steep rock, he reached the top of the mountain.

The moon hangs in the sky, sprinkled with clear brilliance like this, the iron hand stands still and looks around.

The top of the mountain is a relatively flat rocky land, about [-] feet square, and a few feet away from the mountain pass, there is a small four-cornered stone pavilion along the edge of the cliff. Behind the pavilion, there is a big pine tree with lush branches and leaves. The trunk of the tree sticks out of the cliff.At this moment, there was a thin woman in white clothes sitting in the pavilion, but she sang,

"The chrysanthemums worry about the smoke and the orchids weep the dew, the curtains are cold, and the swallows fly away. The bright moon does not understand the bitterness of parting and hatred, and the slanting light reaches the dawn to wear Zhuhu."

The singing was very clear and melodious, but Tie Shou felt as shrill as ghosts crying and wolves howling in his ears.At this moment, the little gray dog ​​in his arms, which had been quiet all along, suddenly poked its head out and barked wildly at the woman.

The woman said bitterly: "This little beast is always a bad thing! If I knew it, I should have killed it together."

Tie Shou put Xiao Hui on the ground, wrapped the leash around the nearby stone, and whispered to it: "Xiao Hui, don't bark, stay here."

Then he stood up straight, looked at the woman expressionlessly, and said coldly, "Miss Ah Yue!"

"Hehe..." The woman chuckled, stood up and walked to the pavilion, the moonlight shone on her face, but it was the singing girl Ah Yue that she met in Fengle Building five days ago.

She said softly: "Second Master Tie, how beautiful is the slave's song? When you sang in Fengle Building that day, you didn't even look at me, so it makes people sad!"

"Who the hell are you? Where is my junior sister?" Tie Shou shouted in a deep voice, walking forward slowly.

"Stop! Don't move around!" Ah Yue took a step back and said urgently, "Second Master is going to be so impatient! Do you still want to see your junior sister!"

Tie Shou heard her threatening words and couldn't see Lu Mengyun's figure, so he didn't dare to approach again, and said angrily: "Today, you let my junior sister go well, and I promise not to hurt your life, otherwise don't blame Tie's men for being ruthless."

"Hey, the second master is so fierce! When you meet an old man, you should talk about the past first."

"Who is your old friend? Who are you!" Tie Shou coldly snorted.

Ah Yue raised her hand to wipe her face, and said, "Ah! Actually, even if I show you my true face, the second master won't recognize me if he thinks about it!"

Tie Shou took a closer look, it was a slightly pale young face, with willow eyebrows and almond eyes, and the facial features were thin and feminine, but the lines and outlines of the face had the toughness of a man, especially the hair on the lips was quite heavy. Like a boy's beard.This strange face, which is neither male nor female, looks particularly eerie and impressive under the moonlight.Iron Hand was pretty sure he had never seen the man before.

Ah Yue said: "Second Master Tie, do you still remember those teenagers you rescued in Wuliang Mountain of Dali Kingdom seven years ago?". . ,. .

Tie Shou frowned and said, "You... are from the Five Immortals Sect?"

"Immortal Envoy Xi Caifeng!" The person said coldly, her voice suddenly changed strangely, giving people the feeling that a hen raised at home suddenly crowed strangely one day.

Faced with this bewitching painting style of men and women, Tie Shou was a little surprised, and said in surprise: "The wind centipede messenger of the Five Immortals?"

Xi Caifeng said with arrogance: "It is the deity!"

Here is a tribute to Wenda's "Talking Pavilion".When I read it back then, I was amazed by the wonderful setting of the hermaphrodite, so impressed that I can't forget it so far.
