Chapter 381: The sky is approaching dawn and turning into shock
After finding an open place where no one was around, the swordsman used the flying talisman again to return to Chang'an City in an instant, and then followed the location of the Huasheng Temple in his memory.
Before getting closer, only looking from a distance, the Huasheng Temple in front of him is far from being comparable to the Jinshan Temple in the Tang Dynasty in terms of scale and momentum. Buddha hall, ancient temple stands in a forest, the huge incense burner stands in the empty square in front of the palace, the incense mist is swirling, the end is a prosperous scene, the flow of people is crowded and does not lose solemnity.
The swordsman bypassed the bustling crowd of incense, looked around, and suddenly saw a Buddha hall with a plaque on the book 'Guanghua Palace' and walked forward. When he walked outside the temple gate, he saw that the temple door was closed, and there was a worried little monk standing alone outside the door.
"This little master, may I ask where is Elder Fa Ming of your temple?"
The swordsman walked to the door and asked.
"Who are you, and why are you asking about Uncle Fa Ming?"
Hearing the swordsman open his mouth to inquire about Elder Fa Ming's location, the little monk immediately became alert and asked cautiously.
"The swordsman has just come from Jinshan Temple, and he was entrusted by Xuanzang to visit Elder Fa Ming, and there is another matter to inquire. ”
The swordsman was stunned when asked, and there seemed to be something wrong with his intuition, but he still politely explained his intention.
"It turned out that Senior Brother Xuanzang entrusted Shaoxia to visit Uncle Faming, but now Uncle Faming is seriously injured and is still in a coma, it is really inconvenient to meet guests, and I ask Shaoxia to understand. ”
When the little monk heard that the swordsman was here for Xuanzang, he immediately believed most of it, and he said apologetically to the swordsman.
"What? Elder Fa Ming was seriously injured and unconscious? Can the little master elaborate? Maybe he can do some small part in the future. ”
The swordsman said sincerely.
"Alas, please inside the young man, there is a lot of noise here, and this matter should not be heard by others, so as not to cause chaos. ”
The little monk gently pushed open the door of the hall and led the swordsman inside.
There are still rows of incense wax lit in the Buddha hall, but it still looks a little dim. The swordsman didn't have time to carefully inspect the furnishings in the hall, and he saw an old monk in a robe fainting on a futon, and there was a young monk next to him who was in a hurry but didn't know what to do.
"I haven't had time to introduce it, the little monk's name is Huihai, and this is Huiming's junior brother. Senior Brother Huiming, this is the young man of the swordsman, who came to help capture the thief, and you will tell the young man about this morning. ”
The little monk who called himself Huihai who came in with the swordsman said hurriedly.
Monk Huiming glanced at the swordsman, then looked back at Elder Fa Ming, who was still unconscious on the fan, and sighed deeply, and then told the truth of the matter.
At dawn today, Monk Huiming got up early to do morning classes, came to the door of this Guanghua Hall and was about to knock on the door, when he heard the sound of banging in the hall, and when Monk Huiming pushed open the door of the temple and came in to check, he saw that Elder Faming was hit by a figure in the back of the heart, fell to the ground and fell unconscious, just like now. Seeing this, Monk Huiming immediately exclaimed, attracting many monks in the temple, but the mysterious person who injured Elder Faming was not found in the whole temple. However, when cleaning up the Guanghua Palace, it was found that a Buddha bone relic originally enshrined in this hall was missing.
This matter is not trivial, Abbot Kongci calmed the emotions of the monks, so that everything in the Huasheng Temple went on as usual, and at the same time gathered all the elders in the temple to work together to find out the origin of the matter, and I don't know if there is any progress now.
After listening to Monk Huiming's narration, the swordsman couldn't help but have a headache. How could it be that at this time, the Avatar Temple was attacked in the middle of the night, and it was the Elder Fa Ming who was injured and unconscious? It seems that it is really difficult for me to continue without wading into this troubled water.
"I don't know where Abbot Kongci is at this time? I want to ask Abbot Kongci about the news of the murderer. ”
The swordsman asked again.
"Shaoxia, come with the little monk, and the little monk will take you to the backyard to find the abbot. Huiming, you take good care of Uncle Guan Ming here, I'll go back when I go. ”
Monk Huihai instructed Monk Huiming a few words, and then led the swordsman out of Guanghua Hall again to a meditation room in the backyard of the temple.
Retreating left and right, there were only two swordsmen and the abbot of Kongci left in the meditation room, and the abbot of Kongci couldn't stop looking at the swordsman up and down, as if he was considering the true intention of the swordsman.
"Abbot Kongci doesn't need to suspect that there is any purpose in the next place, he came down to your temple just to find Elder Faming to find out Xuanzang's life experience, but he didn't happen to encounter such a disaster in your temple, and he had no other purpose. ”
The swordsman also knew that it was very inappropriate for him to suddenly intervene in this matter, and the doubts of the abbot of Kongci were not incomprehensible, so he simply explained his purpose and plan first.
"Shaoxia is too worried, Lao Wei will never doubt Shaoxia. The right old man was just distracted for a moment and remembered some other things, so don't blame the young man. ”
Abbot Kongci came back to his senses, and after a haha, he returned the conversation.
"Then I don't know if Abbot Kongci has the whereabouts of the thief now?"
The swordsman was noncommittal, but asked about the main thing.
"The old man already knows the ins and outs of the whole thing, but he has been worrying about how to deal with it, and now since the young man is willing to help solve the problems for the temple, the old man thanked the young man in advance. ”
The abbot of Kongci clasped his hands together and secretly said Amitabha.
"Abbot, please speak, I will do my best. ”
The swordsman said.
"The mysterious woman who injured the senior brother of Fa Ming and snatched the Buddha's bone relics is called Bai Liuli, as for her origin, alas, she is also a woman with a hard life. Lao Wei calculated that she was hiding in a cave in the border of the Tang Dynasty at this time. Since Shaoxia is willing to help, then bother Shaoxia to go through, but please also ask Shaoxia's subordinates to be merciful, just retrieve the stolen Buddha bone relics, don't hurt the life of the white glass. ”
Abbot Kongci said slowly.
"Abbot Kongci, are you so sure that you can beat that Bai Liuli in Xia, you must know that she can beat Elder Fa Ming with one palm and seriously injured him and knocked him unconscious. ”
The swordsman asked half-jokingly.
"Hehe, the young man doesn't want to entertain the old man, if you can't even see the identity of the young man, what is the point of the old man's more than 100 years of meditation?"
Abbot Kongci also frowned slightly and laughed softly.
The swordsman said in his heart, it seems that this old bald donkey is not a fuel-efficient lamp, listening to the meaning of his words, it seems that he has already calculated that he will come to solve his problems?
