THE STOLEN GOD
By Edison Marshall
CHAPTER XX
"Andre comes first with me,
after my father. If father is in
volved in this thing at all, it is with
honest motives. Whatever Andre
has done, he's not to blame ; he's out
of his head about Oriental art. If
you want me to keep your secret,
you must promise to save them
both."
"How can I promise thatT I'm
not the law. I didn't come here to
make arrests, only to restore the
Emerald Buddha, but if Chambon
goes too far. his safety will pass
out or my bands."
"Then perhaps I'd better go to
mm now and warn him." She
stood very straight.
"It you feel you must, I'm at your
mercy." For he had decided to lay
an his cards face up, trusting every
thing to Virginia's inherent fineness
and high heart.
He went on with gathering power
"But I honestly believe that his best
chance Is for you to let me go ahead
In my disguise and do my best to
save him from himself.' lie won't
giv up his undertaking, at any
warning or request from you. You
know that."
- Still she did not make a sound
or give a sign.
"HeU only cover up the tracks
I've uncovered, and go ahead," Ned
went on, in low tones. "Other men
will take his trail, and in the end
he'll pay the price. And this is in
addition to the plain right-and-wrong
of the thing your duty to
help me stop a great crime against
a nation and a king."
Blunt words! If he had sized her
np wrong, they would spoil every
thing. But as he watched, hardly
daring to hope, her blue eyes brim
med full, her hand fell gently on his.
. "IH keep your secret for the
present." -
There came an ache In his arms,
an imperious hunger on his lips. If
he could only hold her close, and try
to tell her what her faith and help
would mean to a lonely soul like his
... but nesting footsteps sounded
on the trail. He had scarcely time
to regain his countenance before
Chambon himself pushed through
the vines.
The Vieomte glanced from one to
the other. One wave of color sped
across his handsome face, then ran
back ; his eyes lighted once, like
scimitars in the sun, then went out
like blown lamps. He smiled faintly.
."So here you are Virginia," he
aid with a e-air'tv e-Ttotamielv Ant
of keeping with that smile. "Ton
are holding up the whole caravan.
TFan, you must have been telling
her something very interesting."
"Ueaven-Born is most kind, to lis
ten to TFan'a poor words," Ned
answered lmperturbably.
Vl.l. u at - - J
wwa wiijo iv (iw soi
long, steadying breath. "They were
very good words. TFan: I'll hear
the rest some other time."
The cars were loaded and ready
to start. Five miles up the road they
would strike the open savannahs of
Interior Laos, and all danger of am
bush by the Kha savages would be
over. In the meantime, Ned sug
gested that Chambon ride in one of
.the rear cars and stay out of sight,
"I do not think the little Jungle
men will attack in daylight, Ned
said. "Yet they may fly an arrow
from the brush beside the road. 'Bet
ter the rice-pot in a hovel, than a
funeral with many drums."
"That's right, Andre," Griffin
broke In. You lay low till we're out
of Kha country." -
But there was no sign of the little
savages along the road and in a few
mrnutes they were en the open pla
teau. Even so, Ned found it hard to
believe that they had seen the last
of the Khas.
The highland they were crossing
row was once the rich heart of Laos.
The wilj prairie still bore the traces
cf o!J - t;.es; vestiges ef . once
thronged cities dotted the plains,
and at every tittle crossroads stood a
ruined ra-ode. At noon they left
the road to visit th Hills of the
White J vs. .
There were hundreds of these
Jars, dotting the tops of a circle of
hills. Carved out of solid white
marble, many of them were eight
feet tall, and all in perfect line and
proportion. From what far-off
country the twenty-ton stone blocks
had- been laboriously hauled, who
were the long-dead artisans that had
hollowed and shaped them, what
had been their use, and why they
now stood empty, scoured by wind
and rain, the French rulers of the
province did not pretend to guess.
If the Laotians knew, the tale was
told only in the joss-house, where
the yellow gods sat smiling, and was
never whispered in a white man's
ear.
The lid of one of the jars bore, the
carved likeness of a skeleton, sue
gesting that it had once held human
bones. -Griffin made the guess that
these were the sepulchers of the old
Laotian kings and their families.
Ned saw Pu-Bow furtively salaam
ing to one of the jars, and even
Chambon, fanatical antiquary that
he was, walked among them with a
kind of glory on his handsome face.
Traveling slowly, before sundown
they were in sight of the ancient
Laotian capital, Chieng-khuang. As
late as two centuries ago, its power
and glory had seemed as secure and
everlasting as its royal dynasty, the
"Lords of Life." j Its fortifications
ran for miles across the fertile
fields. At least a hundred large pa
godas, gave it the favor of Lord
Buddha. Ambassadors came bear
ing gifts half across the world, from
the palaces of the Manchus, from
the wild courts of the Burmese
Kings, from the last of the Mogul
Emperors beyond the Bay of Ben
gal. Its caravans brought the
wealth of all the Indies to heap at its
shrines and at the foot of its ivory
throne. . i
Then something happened some
thing terrifying and unknown. The
Pali writings of the tale were lost :
only the yellow-robed priests hinted
at it in ritual and allegory. Anyway,
when the French came, in 1893, the
kings were fugitives and their pal
aces fallen ; the hundred temples
lay in ruin; the fortifications were
mere grassy mounds hardly distin
guishable from the natural hills:
and the great, the eternal city, lord
of a hundred cities, reduced to a
mere town tinder Siamese rule. -
"But it does not matter any
more," Ned said after he had re
counted the legend to Virginia. "The
kings are dead. The Siamese have
our Emerald Buddha. The French
have come to stay. It is all forgot
ten." -.'..;.
"I venture some of your people
haven't forgotten," Chambon said,
and Ned marveled at the glitter of
his eyes.
They drove into what was left of
tne city. The French governor, a
dark man named St. Pierre, wel
comed the visitors, and made them
comfortable in tha big, rambling
guest Dungaiow.;
"Tonight you shall dine with me.
St, Pierre told them. "And tomor
row you shall see the Cave of the
Million Buddhas. once the holv-of.
holies of the Laotians and still one
of the greatest wonders of the
world." i
- During the unpacking, Ned man
aged to steal a quiet word with Vir
ginia. -
"Are you going to be Just an on
looker, or wiu you lend a hand?"
"I'm going to help you all I can."
And how lovely she looked, with a
little red cloud in each cheek.
"Oh, if you only knew r
"What shall I do first 7" she broke
in, calmly. , i
"Get the keys of the room where
Chambon has stored the curios, and
bring them to me after the dinner
party. We're roinsr to look fo-
something." . i
In his native garb, Ned could not
be invited to the governor's table,
but he had told Virginia everything,
and she looked and listened in his
place. Griffin had never seen h-
eyes so bright; or could recall when
aha had looked so lovely, with a high
natural color in her cheeks and the
candlelight trapped in her hair.
But Chambon scarcely glanced in
her direction. The strangeness Grif
fin had seen and wondered at for the
past few days was even more
marked, in this city of splendid
ruins.
"You may not remember, Vieomte,
but we have met before," St Pierre
said out of a clear sky.
Chambon started. "I thought
your face was familiar." '
"I was in your, father's brigade
in the war. Five years after, he in
vited me to his villa for dinner, and
you were just home from college. I
had the pleasure of meeting your
mother, too but she was in ill
health at the time, and only ap
peared at the table for dessert. I
hope she is better now."
"Some better, thank you, but she
has retired to her old home in Cor
sica." Virginia gasped and started to
speak, then stared hard at her
plate. Until this very instant, she 1
had thought Chambon 's mother was
dead. He had never told her so in ;
so many words, but certainly his
manner had implied it.
"She was a Mademoiselle Valinco,
if I remember right," Stl Pierre
went on. "Oddly enough,-there is a
Valinco River, not far from here.
Perhaps you should find out if it
was named in honor of one of your
mother's ancestors."
"It's not an unusual name, in
Corsica," Chambon answered, eas
ily. : '
The talk soon veered, and Griffin
told the governor of his experience
with the Khas. I
"What a strange notion that Vi
comte's, visit to the country would
restore the Laos kingdom and' send
the Khas back to slavery 1" St.
Pierre marveled.
Virginia resolved to play boldly
the cards Ned had put in her hand.
"Our interpreter, T'Fan thought
that the Emerald Buddha might be
somehow involved," she said calmly,
with only a passing glitter in her
eyes.
"The return of the Emerald
Buddha would set Laos on fire," St.
Pierre said thoughtfully. "The Sia
mese confiscated it from a temple in
Chieng Mai, once part of Laos, and
before then it was supposed to have
stood for centuries in some other
unknown Laotian tnnnl. Rn ft
wouldn't restore the kingdom or en-
save ute ivnas. ranee wants ne

ince, and would simply return the
image 10 uang-ok.-
Virginia put down these last sen
tences in a mental nnf-V-vnlr
port later to Ned. j
"Just the same, I'd like to talk
to this T'Fan," St. Pierre continued.
"He may know more than he lets
on."
An Annamese servant in uniform
spoke raoidlv in Fmnch in h-
ernor's ear. ?

guests back to the bungalow. And

ginia send word -tn NnVVa f a m

the nlrht air. and w a& nA t.;

Virginia's thoughts were flying,
and she saw at nnm that tt.-.R
did not desire St Pierre to lay eyes
on iMouca. no ooubt he feared that
the governor would see through her
