"I searched the entire Jinglin Temple and couldn't find anyone, could it be that he was coerced by gangsters and transferred to other places?"

In front of the mountain gate, which was almost invisible in Jinglin Temple, a middle-aged catcher frowned and put forward his own guess.

"I don't think so. Wu Qiniang was dressed in a short and energetic suit, with a solemn expression, "I feel that Jiang Wangfeng is near here, and he has not been transferred elsewhere." ”

"I feel ......" Catcher was choked by her words and persuaded, "I feel like I can't count." ”

"You're just guessing, you don't have credentials. Wu Qiniang said categorically.

She seemed to be fairly calm, but many people could still see that she had developed some faint anxiety as time went on.

"Female donor, the old man understands very well. But you have searched every corner of Jinglin Temple up and down, proving that people are indeed not here. If you don't do something else, you might have delayed the opportunity. ”

When this kind of thing happens, the presiding officer of Jinglin Temple naturally can't be left alone. He accompanied the catchers to search the entire Jinglin Temple, but they didn't even find a single hair of Jiang Wangfeng and Xu Wen.

At this time, Wu Qiniang relied on the word "feeling" to insist that people were indeed related to them here, and it was normal for the old monk to be dissatisfied.

Wu Qiniang pursed her lips tightly and didn't say a word.

After a while, she suddenly turned to Sun Boran and asked, "What is the name of the candidate who has a grudge against Xu Qian? Cen Xiaoyi? Where is he now?"

"There is an exam tomorrow, so he naturally stays in the public office to rest and prepare. However, there is no evidence that this incident is related to people, and we cannot refer to the deer as a horse and just mess around. Sun Boran said.

"But Jiang Wangfeng went out for the first time, and he had never had a grudge against anyone before, thinking about it, only this person was the most suspicious!" Wu Qiniang said loudly.

"If there is any suspicion, without evidence, you can't count. Sun Boran said.

He didn't have a good impression of Cen Xiaoyi, and his attitude towards him before was very average, but at this time, he insisted on this matter, and he was not swayed by Wu Qiniang's strength.

"How did Cen Xiaoyi contact you?" Next to the fire on Poria Island, Xu Wen suddenly asked Zuo Qian.

The night was getting deeper, Zuo Qian finished treating Xu Linchuan's arm and applied medicine to the wound on Xu Wen's face. Then they had nothing to do, and sat here waiting for dawn, and everyone was a little drowsy.

Xu Wen's words made them suddenly start, and they looked up at Zuo Qian together.

"What do you mean? I don't know what you mean. Zuo Qian said with a smile.

Xu Wen's expression froze, and the expressions of several other people also changed, and even Zuo Teng stared at his stepfather with a questioning expression.

"What do you think these things are in Jinglin Temple?" Zuo Qian asked Xu rhetorically. He was still smiling, very relaxed, not at all like he was talking about his companion.

"A group of outlaws, who only recognize money and not people, give money and let him do whatever he wants. Without waiting for Xu Q to answer, he continued to speak on his own, and finally chuckled lightly and concluded, "Who will reveal their identity to them with this kind of goods?"

After speaking, he turned his head to look at Xu Wen, as if he wanted to amuse him with his expression.

Xu Wen didn't have any superfluous reactions.

He frowned slightly, thought for a while, and then asked, "What about Jinglin Temple, and what does it have to do with you?"

"It's just a monk who makes a pending order. Zuo Qian said.

"Can this kind of small temple place an order?" Xu Wen asked unexpectedly.

When a monk passes by other temples, he can ask for a temporary stay, which is called a pending order.

Pending orders are free, that is, eating and drinking for nothing, so not all temples will accept pending orders, only the more powerful big temples.

Whether a temple will accept a pending order, there will be a clear sign near the entrance of the temple, that is, the direction of the Veda Bodhisattva Veda pestle at the door.

The Vedic pestle is carried on the shoulder, indicating that this temple is relatively large, and can accommodate the monks who travel here for free food and lodging for three days; the Vedic pestle is flat on the hand, and can be free of charge for one day; the Vedic pestle is on the ground, indicating that our home is a small temple, and we are sorry not to provide free food and accommodation.

Xu Wen recalled for a long time and didn't remember what the statue of Wei Tuo in Jinglin Temple looked like, but no matter how you look at this temple, it is a small temple, and theoretically it should not be able to place an order.

In addition, there is another key, the longest time to place an order is only three days, this group of six or seven monks, the time to stay here must be far more than three days, can Jinglin Temple afford it?

"In Jinglin, it's just a name, our family doesn't spend the old monk's money, and the old monk doesn't care about us. Zuo Qian was stunned and added two branches to the fire.

“...... And that's not all. Xu Wen was silent for a moment and said.

It is also risky to turn a blind eye, why did Jinglin Temple let them be named?

"The old monks can't help it, they are also very poor, and they can't afford to eat without relying on this kind of business. Zuo Qian rarely said a word for the host.

Xu Wen remembered the mountain gate that was almost out of sight in Jinglin Temple, and fell silent.

The sparks crackled and exploded, there was silence all around, and the autumn cicadas in the distance seemed to be asleep, far less noisy than before.

Suddenly, a grunt sounded, distinctly clear in the quiet air.

Jiang Wangfeng rubbed his stomach embarrassedly and said, "I'm a little hungry......

They came out in the morning, didn't eat lunch and dinner, and it was not normal if they were not hungry.

"Let's go back first. Xu Wen stood up and said, "I've been hungry, even if it's safe, I won't be able to take the exam tomorrow." ”

Condescendingly, he clearly saw that Zuo Qian's face changed slightly.

This look was very slight, and if he hadn't been paying attention to the other party, it would have been impossible to find it.

But what does Zuo Qian mean by this?

Did he deliberately keep them here?

What does he want to do?

In an instant, all of Xu Wen's vigilance was mentioned to the highest, but Zuo Qian's expression quickly returned to normal.

"Yes. I've prepared some food, but it's not enough for so many people, so I'd better go ashore first. He got up, walked under a nearby tree, and pulled through the grass for a while.

Xu Wen didn't move, staring at his back tightly, not letting go of any of his movements.

Zuo Qian quickly lifted a bunch of things, turned around and walked in front of them, threw them on the ground easily, and said, "This is a floating board and a reed pipe, it doesn't matter if you can't swim, let's swim over." Originally, I was going to prepare water to rely on, but there were too many people, and it was too conspicuous to prepare. ”

The light of the fire illuminated the earth, and it was indeed what he had spoken. It's basic, but it's so well equipped, like he says, that people who can't swim can use it for some distance. Of course, it's easier to have someone who can swim around.

In any case, to prepare such a set of things, Zuo Qian is indeed very careful.

Xu Wen hadn't let down his vigilance yet, and Jiang Wangfeng and Xu Linchuan breathed a sigh of relief first. The two thanked each other, Jiang Wangfeng kindly helped Xu Linchuan tie the floating board, and he also tied two boards, afraid that the distance would be too far and the follow-up would be weak.

Halfway through the two of them, Jiang Wangfeng looked at Xu suspiciously and asked, "Don't you know how to swim?" Why don't you use a floating board?"

Xu Wen glanced back at him a little helplessly, and also picked up the floating board and tied it to his body.

Zuo Qian looked at Xu Wen with a smile, and when no one noticed, he approached Xu Wen's side and said softly: "Don't worry, I do have no ill will towards you." Of course, I'm not out of the woods...... I'll tell you what I want, when it's over. ”

His words really reassured Xu Wen, and he said, "Okay, let's talk about it later." ”

A group of people brought their equipment, and Zuo Qian led them to the lake. Before leaving, Xu Wen specially extinguished the forest fire to confirm that there were no sparks left.

This action made Zuo Qian especially look at him and smiled silently.

When the five of them arrived at the lake, Jiang Wangfeng told his two companions who couldn't swim: "There are lotus fields on the opposite bank here, and there are a lot of aquatic plants, be careful not to get entangled." Don't panic when you get entangled, you can float up by relaxing your body......"

Before he finished speaking, Zuo Qian suddenly sighed and asked, "Who?!"

Xu Wen sensed that something was wrong almost at the same time as him, and subconsciously thought, "He's making a show!"

However, when he saw Zuo Qian's expression, he knew that he had thought wrong.

It wasn't his arrangement, and he was just as surprised as they were!

Xu Wen took a deep breath and calmly looked at the few people in front of him.

They slowly got up from the stones, as if they had been waiting here for a long time.

The first one, who was exceptionally tall, stepped in front of them and said to his companion with a grin, "I'm right, this guy is a traitor!"
