Chapter 274: A Bizarre Murder
"The Wu family? Could it be that Zhou Xiaoyou is asking about the Wu family on Lianpeng Island? ”
Master Daoguo had never seen Wu Ge, so naturally he didn't know the real name of the pseudonym "Fifth Brother", let alone Wu Ge's origin; Now listening to Zhou Chen's abrupt inquiry, Master Dao Guo was even more puzzled, and he didn't understand why Zhou Chen asked about the Wu family of the family.
However, he remembered that he had been to a place many years ago, and most of the people in that place were surnamed Wu, and it was a very large family.
Many years ago, Master Daoguo once went down the mountain to practice, came to Penglai, Shandong, and walked aimlessly when he accidentally found a small island. The island was quite prosperous, almost like a small city, with about seventy or eighty households, most of whom were surnamed Wu; Of course, there are also people with foreign surnames, and there are even many migrant workers. It's just that to the surprise of Master Daoguo, most of the people surnamed Wu here have kung fu, and even accidentally saw a person fighting a big fish in the sea and saving a child.
can fight with two or three meters of big fish in the water, and the kung fu is definitely not weak.
However, because the locals are very welcoming and don't look like bad people, Master Daoguo didn't care at that time, but he always remembered the events on Lianpeng Island.
Now that Zhou Chen asked, he was the first to think of the Wu family on Lianpeng Island.
"The Wu family on Lianpeng Island? Master, where is Lotus Peng Island? Can you tell me exactly? Zhou Chen was excited and asked with a serious face.
"Okay, Lianpeng Island is an island in Penglai City, Shandong, the island is not big, there are only more than 70 households......" Master Daoguo did not hide it, and told the story of the Lianpeng Island he had seen, and after telling it, Master Daoguo looked puzzled and asked: "Zhou Xiaoyou, why did you suddenly ask about the Wu family?" ”
"Master, it's not a secret. The real name of the boss of the Jianglong Gang, the fifth brother, is Wu Ge, and before coming to the Jianglong Gang, he committed many murders under the name of "murder scholar". Not only that, when I fought with him, he once confessed that he was a collateral descendant of the Wu family, and because he was dissatisfied with the rules of the family, which could only be loyal to the family and descendants, he broke away from the family and established the Jianglong Gang in Wuhu under the pseudonym 'Fifth Brother'. ”
Zhou Chen did not hide it, and told Master Dao Guo about Wu Ge's true identity.
"Is that so?" Master Daoguo's face was full of shock, pondered for a moment, shook his head, and said: "According to what Lao Wei can see, the people of Lianpeng Island live and work in peace and contentment, the folk customs are very simple, and the family is wealthy, these are all brought to them by the Wu family, and the people of the Wu family should not be people who do evil, and they should not do anything to cultivate killers." ”
"Then I don't know, Wu Ge didn't explain where the Wu family in his mouth was, maybe it happened to have the same surname!"
"I hope so!" Master Dao Guo said with a sad face.
Looking at Master Daoguo's worried expression, Zhou Chen didn't know what to say to comfort him. He didn't know what Master Dao Guo had experienced in Lianpeng Island many years ago, or that Lotus Island had always been like a paradise in his heart, but he suddenly found that the paradise was only a superficial phenomenon, and it was difficult for Master Dao Guo, who was compassionate and purified to all sentient beings, to accept it for a while.
The atmosphere in the meditation room was a bit oppressive and heavy.
At this moment, there was a sudden noise of people outside, and the chaos caused the two to recover from their thoughts. Zhou Chen and Master Dao Guo glanced at each other, and were about to go out to see what was going on outside, when a fierce knock sounded outside the door, and the eager shouts of monks were heard.
"Uncle Daoguo, there was a murder case in the temple, and the abbot ordered you to rush over."
Homicide case?
Zhou Chen and Daoguo Master in the meditation room were surprised, today is the grand ceremony of Guangji Temple every five years, and it is simply uncommon for a death case to occur on such a big day. The two of them immediately got up and walked out of the meditation room, and when they saw the monk at the door, Master Daoguo asked, "Quickly take Lao Qu to the place where the crime occurred, and you can explain it in detail on the way." ”
"Yes, Uncle Daoguo." The monk replied, hurriedly led the way in front, and recounted: "The incident happened in the Jizo Temple, and the deceased was a man in his twenties. At the time of the crime, there were many people in the Jizo Temple, and the deceased suddenly screamed before he died, covered his chest with his hands, fell to the ground, and stopped breathing in less than two minutes. ”
"Has the body been examined? Did the deceased have an acute illness? Are there any signs of poisoning? Zhou Chen interjected and asked.
Such a strange way of dying, if it is not an acute disease, it is possible that it is poisoning.
"I have been checked, but there is no acute illness, but I have symptoms of tuberculosis for many years, and there is no sign of poisoning; The only strange thing is that the deceased's secluded mansion is very dead, and it looks like he should have been dead for many years. The monk frowned and explained.
"Youfu is very dead?" Master Dao Guo muttered, glanced at Zhou Chen next to him, and said with a serious face: "This matter hasn't been leaked out, has it?" ”
"No, Uncle Daoming is afraid that this matter will have a great impact, and he must not disclose it in a strict explanation."
"That's good, the poor monk will go and see the dead first."
Master Dao Guo quickened his pace and hurried towards the Jizo Palace, and Zhou Chen followed. Not long after, they arrived at the Jizo Temple, and by this time there were many people surrounded outside. Today is the grand ceremony of Guangji Temple once every five years, there are many tourists, and there are fatal cases, which naturally attracts many people to watch, and many people talk about it. If this matter cannot be resolved, it is likely to cause great damage to the reputation of Guangji Temple.
Squeezing through the crowd, Zhou Chen and Master Dao Guo entered the Jizo Palace.
The door has been guarded by the monks of Guangji Temple, tourists can't squeeze in at all, enter the Jizo Temple, there is a corpse lying next to the Buddha statue, the abbot of Daoxin and Master Daoming are checking the corpse, and their faces are sad.
"Senior Brother Daoxin, what's the situation?" Master Dao Guo hurriedly stepped forward and asked.
The Daoxin Abbot shook his head with a sad face, and slowly explained: "The old man thoroughly examined the deceased's condition, and the deceased did have tuberculosis, but even if he had an attack, it would not suddenly be fatal; What's even more strange is that this person's secluded mansion is quite dead, and it stands to reason that he should be a person who has been dead for a long time, or it is caused by practicing the evil and crooked ways. ”
Zhou Chen squatted down and took a closer look at the deceased.
The deceased appeared to be in his twenties, emaciated and frail; His cheeks were sunken, his face was pale, and he looked very sluggish, like a sick man.
"Master Abbot, in addition to practicing the method of the evil sect, is it possible that someone used the method of the evil sect to treat him, which made the inner body very dead?" Zhou Chen thought about it and put forward a point.
"It's highly likely." Dao Heart Abbot nodded and said.
"Master, it seems that this matter is not simple, if the kid guessed correctly. The reason why this person died in Guangji Temple was that someone deliberately did it, and the purpose was to deal with Guangji Temple. Zhou Chen said with a serious face: "According to the boy's guess, this person is very likely to have long-term tuberculosis, recently met a person who said that he could be cured, that person used the evil method to heal, and deliberately took advantage of the grand ceremony of Guangji Temple to order him to come, so that the deceased died here." ”
After listening to Zhou Chen's speculation, everyone's faces were full of horror.
If this is the case, it means that someone deliberately targeted Guangji Temple.
Who the hell is it?
As soon as he finished telling this, a mobile phone rang in his pocket, Zhou Chen smiled apologetically, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, looked at it and saw that it was Shen Qingrou calling, and quickly answered the phone.
"Brother, it's not good, Li Decai is gone."
