Hyakumu-ji Temple.

The annual "Hyakmu Demon Festival" will start tomorrow, and the entire Hyakmu Temple has been prepared, and it is currently in a closed state, waiting for the arrival of the "Hyakmu Demon Festival".

Closing the temple, of course, this is for ordinary people, and Lin Lei and his party are naturally not ordinary people.

So, Lin Lei is now strolling around the backyard of Baimu Temple.

The entire backyard was empty.

All the monks were asked not to enter the backyard - in the side hall of the backyard, Lu Yun and Qiao Yan launched a new round of questioning of Master Shenmu.

The police handle the case, and others avoid it, which is also the proper meaning.

The wall in the northwest corner of the backyard was full of murals about the Hundred Eyes Demon, and Lin Lei was looking at these murals intently.

It seems, it seems, as if he wasn't at all interested in Lu Yun and Qiao Yan asking Master Shenmu - he just looked at these murals over and over again.

The mural tells the story of the Hundred Eyes Demon.

The hundred-eyed demon on the screen has eyes all over his body.

The story depicted in the mural is that the Hundred Eyes Demon is seducing men and stealing people's eyes for their own use.

Lin Lei clearly remembered that Ota once said that if she was robbed of a hundred eyes by the Hundred Eyes Demon, she would become a big devil who could not be subdued.

The next mural is about a mage who goes to subdue the Hundred Eyes Demon, and at this time the Hundred Eyes Demon has 98 eyes, and the evil light emitted by these 98 eyes makes the mage unable to move.

In order not to be filled with 100 eyes by the monster, the mage self-destructed his eyes, and finally sealed the two main eyes on the head of the 100-eyed demon with the ash of Buddha incense, and finally subdued it.

The last mural depicts something that Ota has not said before.

After destroying his eyes, the mage sat upright in the temple.

And the hundred-eyed demon who was subdued seems to be like those lost immortal mounts in "Journey to the West", and they have begun to change their minds.

The mural was flooded, and the people were in danger, but the Hundred Eyes Demon used his magic to channel the flood and restore peace in the world.

After reading the last set of murals, Lin Lei's face was solemn and his eyes deepened......

"Officer, I'm here. A man's voice reached Lin Lei's ears.

Lin Lei turned his head to look at the person who came, and said with a slight bow: "You come here." ”

The person who came was a middle-aged monk, of medium height, about 1.70 meters tall, obviously shorter than Lin Lei.

This middle-aged monk is called Zhicheng, and he is a deacon of Hyakumu Temple.

The deacon is the "middle-level cadre" of Hyakumu Temple, and he is in charge of many specific things.

Master Shenmu is over sixty years old, and many specific affairs of the temple are managed by Deacon Zhicheng.

Deacon Zhicheng came to Lin Lei's side, his hands bowed, his head bowed, and waited for Lin Lei's question.

Lin Lei didn't ask directly, but stared at Deacon Zhicheng for a long, long time......

Zhicheng couldn't help it, raised his head, but saw Lin Lei's big eyes staring at him, and couldn't help but shiver, almost standing a little unsteadily.

At this moment, Lin Lei spoke: "When did you enter Baimu Temple as a monk?"

Zhicheng's heart sank, and he replied in a trembling voice: "I entered Hyakumu Temple thirty years ago and started as a small novice......

Lin Lei nodded lightly and said slowly, "Thirty years ago—"

After a pause, Lin Lei's eyes suddenly widened, and he asked sharply, "In the past thirty years, how many priests have there been in Baimu Temple?"

Zhicheng looked at Lin Lei incredulously, his lips moved, but he didn't say anything.

After a long time, Zhicheng stabilized his mind and said in a low voice: "In the past thirty years, there have been a total of four priests in Baimu Temple, and after each priest dies, he will find a new priest. ”

Lin Lei smiled slightly and stopped asking.

Lin Lei didn't ask, and Zhicheng didn't dare to speak, and the atmosphere was extremely tense.

After a long silence, Lin Lei suddenly spoke again: "How many years has the shortest-serving priest been in office, and how old was the oldest priest when he died?"

Lin Lei's questioning has always given people a sense of oppression.

Zhicheng didn't dare to hide it, and replied directly: "The priest with the shortest tenure served for three years, and the oldest priest who died was thirty-six years old......"

Lin Lei was silent.

After a long time, Lin Lei suddenly pointed to a small locked door in the corner of the backyard and asked Zhicheng, "Where does this door lead?"

Zhicheng didn't think about it, and replied directly: "There is the back garden of this temple - Master Shenmu loves to raise flowers, it is his private place, no one is allowed to enter, and the key is only available to Master Shenmu." ”

Lin Lei's eyes were fixed on the locked door, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

After a while, Lin Lei waved his hand and said to Zhicheng: "It's okay, you go down!"

Drops of sweat the size of soybeans had already appeared on Zhicheng's forehead, and when he heard Lin Lei's words, he hurriedly said goodbye and left the backyard quickly.

After Lin Lei watched Deacon Zhicheng walk out of the backyard, he sighed softly, turned his head again, and looked at the mural on the wall.

On the first mural, the hundred-eyed demon is using the mana of his eyes to confuse people with weak minds;

On the last mural, the Hundred Eyes Demon is "reforming the evil and returning to the right" and is using mana to channel the flood......

Lin Lei closed his eyes lightly and let out a long sigh again.

At this moment, Lin Lei's eyes were incomparably clear, just like the mage on the mural when he first saw the Hundred Eyes Demon.

The unknown mage in the mural finally destroyed his eyes in order to subdue demons and eliminate demons.

And what Lin Lei has been doing all along is also to subdue demons and eliminate demons - what he wants to get rid of is naturally those cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods in the human world......

After a long, long time, Lin Lei gathered his thoughts, took out the phone from his pocket, and dialed Lu Yun's number.

Lu Yun's mobile phone was set to vibrate, and after getting Lin Lei's password, Lu Yun and Qiao Yan quickly ended the interrogation with Master Shenmu, and together with Lin Lei, left Baimu Temple.

Not long after walking out of Baimu Temple, Lu Yun couldn't help but ask Lin Lei, "How is it?"

Qiao Yan on the side also widened her eyes and looked at Lin Lei nervously.

Lin Lei frowned and shook his head slowly.

Lu Yun was stunned for a moment, and was speechless for a long time.

Qiao Yan couldn't help but ask, "Sister Yun and I are reasoning wrong?"

Lin Lei shook his head again and was silent.

"King Guanzi, let's talk about it, what's going on?" Lu Yun cleaned up his mood and glared at Lin Lei fiercely.

Lin Lei took out a piece of chewing gum from his pocket, put it in his mouth, and chewed it slowly.

After a long while, Lin Lei spit out the gum in his mouth, and a mysterious smile appeared on his face.

Seeing Lin Lei's smile, the stone hanging in Lu Yun and Qiao Yan's hearts was finally put down!

It's worthy of Lin Lei!

This "Mystery Smile", as before, is a sign that Lin Lei sees through everything!

Qiao Yan smiled, said in quite fluent Japanese: "The encounter between people and people is full of magic, and all kinds of criminal cases are full of puzzles, it is really fate to meet you...... The only one who sees through the truth is a famous detective who looks stupid on the outside, but is too wise for ordinary people - Lin Lei!"

After a pause, Qiao Yan smiled and answered: "Is that the line?

Lu Yun burst out laughing, and the tension at the scene suddenly came to naught.
