“The prefect’s to beckoned Zhao Yu to a secluded area outside the to the ancient to shui! Look, the toh it is sufficient to gather qi, it still falls short of having all of the five necessary ele was a Ming Dynasty prefect over the years So, itcarved up and stylized according to a different regime Plus, Luya was located at the co was, of course, an officer that had a large numbers of troops So, ould he build a tos of theshui?”

Listening to the questions that Li Xiusheng brought up, Zhao Yu was veryshui

“The Dozen Statues of the Golden Buddha!” Li Xiusheng said excitedly, “The ancient legend…It’s true!”

Dozen Statues of the Golden Buddha?!

Zhao Yu had no idea at all about this, so he just shook his head

“For Prefect Qiu to have buried his of feng shui, hesee almost incoherently, due to his excitement

“Police officer, do you know about the Golden Buddha Teain

“Yeah! It has been reopened as a park noith an ancient lotus pond and a forest of stone platforms,” Zhao Yu answered “It costs more than twenty dollars for an entrance ticket What about it?”

“The Golden Buddha Teolden buddha! Thus, the golden buddha should be related to the Prefect Qiu!” Li Xiusheng quivered as he spoke, still quite excited

But, Zhao Yu found this odd, asking, “Mister, I still don’t understand How does what you have just said relate at all to the To quickly pointed at the ancient tomb in the distance and said, “I looked carefully just now The relics within the tomb were not touched Most likely, the robbers only took away one fifth of them Hence, there were still many valuable items that were left untouched! These actions do not line up with any grave robbers I’ve ever heard of!”

“What the heck?!” Zhao Yu was puzzled He wanted to urge hiet to the point, but the rave robbers took things that could be taken without any extra effort, and it all seeround, some were in disrepair and needed to be touched up All of these things, they didn’t even touch them, but just left They see continued “Theoretically, the location was so reh time to slowly take care of all of those relics So, there really should not be anything left!”

Hmm…What does itthis By the looks of the corpse, the murderer was very calm and calculated However, they had left in a hurry These two things seemed to be more than a little contradictory to one another

“You listen toat the topic discussed earlier “The legend says that there were twelve statues of Golden Buddhas, hence the na to the historical record, these twelve statues were possibly related to Prefect Qiu!”

He continued “It is actually recorded that, at the beginning of the wanli era, there was once a great drought in Luya It lasted three years and was a very serious disaster Itexplained “Back then, the Luya prefect had once led the locals to the temple in order to pray for rain To show his sincerity, the prefect united with the local wealthy gentles That’s how the teot its name!”

“Golden Buddha temple…Golden Buddhas Okay,replied excitedly, “There isn’t any record about the effects, if any, that these prayers for rain had But, there was ru for rain was fake However, the reality was that he was secretly extorting old paint on the twelve statues, which were actuallythat they were Golden Buddhas! Then, he put them into the teenuine Golden Buddhas!”

“You’re kidding!” Zhao Yu was shocked “This is so bizarre!”
