Chapter 128: Lost Sheep
Hua Zilai's questioning of Wujian was almost unhindered, so smooth that he had to wonder if Qiwu was telling the truth. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info
It can be seen that Wupin's face is sincere, and if he asks in front of Wupin, Hua Zilai thinks that since Wupin has confessed to Zhanyan and Yin Seventeen, he hopes that the yamen can help find out the murderer who killed Jiang Long'er back then, then Wupin will definitely not lie, and as Wupin, who has helped Wupin exchange news with Zhao's shopkeeper for many years, there is no reason to lie.
After asking questions, he returned to the Zen courtyard where Jizhen was, and as soon as he entered the courtyard door, he saw the little master, and after saying hello to the little master, he entered the Jizhen meditation room.
As soon as he entered the meditation room, Hua Zilai saw and heard the scene of Ji Zhen being forced to collapse by Yin Seventeen's words.
That is, he really held his head and cried to Yin Seventeen, and when he saw Hua Zilai enter the meditation room, he pounced on Hua Zilai and said:
"Flower catch! You believe in the poor monks! You must believe in the poor monks! Yin Kuaishou doesn't seem to believe in the poor monk, but what the poor monk said is true! β
Hua Zilai glanced at Yin Seventeen, who was holding his arms around his chest, and saw that Yin Seventeen's appearance was indeed skeptical, and he couldn't help but look back at the truth:
"You said that you pretended to be crazy and pretended to be so similar before, you didn't even admit that we broke it, and you just pretended to die and didn't speak! You will say that what you say is true, how do we know if this is another kind of pretense on your part? β
Yin Seventeen gave Hua Zilai a capital praise in his heart.
That's right, that's what it is.
That is, he is really not stupid, and he is good at acting, which is from the fact that he has hidden from Master Yile and everyone in the temple, including the little master who is the best friend with him on weekdays, his acting skills are excellent, and there is really a reason for people not to be gullible.
Hua Zilai said this, which is really understandable.
Yin Seventeen didn't believe him, this would even Hua Zilai said that he didn't believe him, that is, he was really anxious, and the tears overflowing from his eyes fell even more fiercely, and Yin Seventeen couldn't help but sigh in his heart, a man, or a monk, how could he cry like this?
Although the little master who was waiting in the courtyard heard the cry, he remembered that Yin Seventeen had told him not to let anyone in to disturb him, so he didn't dare to knock on each other, so he just stood outside the door, put his ear to the door, and listened carefully to the movement inside.
Yin Qiqi noticed that there was someone outside the door of the meditation room, but she didn't hear the sound of the little master's obstruction, so the person listening to the corner should be the little master she asked to guard the courtyard.
Since it was the little master, Yin Seventeen turned his gaze back that fell on the door, that is, he really pounced on her, knelt down and said:
"Yin Kuaishou! The poor monk said! Anything you can say! Poor monks, I just ask you not to blame the enlightened master! β
Yin Seventeen stretched out his hand to help Jizhen up, but found that Jizhen didn't want to get up at all, she said helplessly:
"The man has gold under his knees, that is, the real little master should get up and speak!"
But he shook his head and said, "No! The poor monk asks for the yin fast hand, the flower catches the fast to believe the poor monk, the poor monk is willing to swear to the Buddha, the poor monk's next word is true, if the poor monk tells a little more lying, let the poor monk go to the eighteen layers of hell after death! Never be born! β
The monks respect the ghosts and gods the most, not to mention the golden body of the Buddha in the hall of the Thousand Lights Palace, that is, the oath is heavy, and it is enough to make Yin Seventeen and Hua Zilai put aside their doubts and listen carefully to the truth of the 1510.
After all, Yin Seventeen's strength was limited, so that Hua Zilai really got up and sat down at the table, she and Hua Zilai also sat down at the table and began to ask questions and answers.
instructed Jizhen to pretend to be a god and make a ghost, trying to spread the terrifying remarks of the dead ghost asking for his life to make all the officials in the yamen afraid, and even make the monks in the temple panic, this is the purpose of letting Jizhen pretend to be a god and make a ghost.
And that night, Wuwei made a big fuss in the Wuming Zen room, and Yile really went to the chess courtyard to ask for a face, and Yin Seventeen kept his mouth shut for Wuwei like a bottle, but he had never thought of it when he was true and enlightened.
Immediately after saying Yile's order and enlightenment, he immediately let Jizhen take this opportunity to go to the wing room to direct and act out a haunted story, with Jizhen's gratitude to Wu, that is, he really acted very realistically, even at the expense of self-injury.
Fortunately, although he fainted, he didn't break his head, otherwise his head would be bleeding, that is, it would be really bloodless.
As for why he let Jizhen do this, Jizhen said that he didn't know why.
Hua Zilai's eyes widened and said, "What! You don't even know the reason, you just listened to the enlightened master and made such a hell of a scene? β
This is blind obedience.
Perhaps there was a last resort to give up his old mother, wife and children, otherwise how could a person as kind as him abandon his earthly home?
But after all, this is a real private matter, and it has nothing to do with the case, that is, if you really don't take the initiative to mention it, Yin Seventeen and Hua Zilai will not deliberately dig it.
With an incredible thought, Hua Zilai angrily pointed at the real and scolded:
"Do you know how much time we've wasted just because you're playing tricks! Do you know that human life is at stake, and if your deliberate delay leads to the unwarranted delivery of the fourth human life, you have been reciting all these years in vain! You are not worthy of this monk's identity! β
That is, this haunted story really took some directions of Zhan Yan and Yin Seventeen's investigation, and of course it also wasted some time, which is that Zhen himself knew in his heart that he hadn't thought about the consequences before doing it, but at this moment he couldn't afford not to think about it.
After being reprimanded and scolded by Hua Zilai, he really buried his head in tears, and his heart that wanted to repent and want to be redeemed from this moment onwards will forever torment his heart.
If the fourth murder had not happened, if there really had been a fourth victim, then it would have been more than just the torture of the rest of his life!
Yin Seventeen and Hua Zilai exited the real meditation room, and when they saw the little master guarding the door, Yin Seventeen said to the little master, "Good comfort is true", and then went to the Zen monastery where the beginning and the end were located.
While the two of them were walking, Yin Seventeen asked Hua Zilai to inquire about the results of the undiminished.
Hua Zi said that when he went to the Wupin Zen Monastery of the Deacon, Wujian was being taught in the Wupin Zen room, and he asked the questions one by one in front of Wupin, and he did not hesitate, thinking that Wupin had already explained, so the result of his trip to ask was very easy to get, and it was not as complicated and laborious as Yin Seventeen to tell the truth.
Wujian has indeed been a bridge between Wupin and Zhao's shopkeeper for many years, except for not knowing that Jiang Long'er was raped and killed in the cabin of the vegetable garden in the back mountain of Qianguang Temple, the other Wujian almost knows it clearly.
Yin Seventeen asked, "Wu Jian doesn't know Jiang Long'er's death?" β
Hua Zilai said: "Originally, I wanted to ask Wu Pin directly, but after seeing the eyes that Master Wu Pin gave me in time, I waited for Wu Pin to leave the meditation room, and asked Master Wu Pin alone, Master Wu Pin said, Wu Pin did not know about Jiang Long'er's death, Wu Ji only knew that Jiang Luo was poisoned and died in the grass not far from the temple two months after he became a monk in the temple, and the subsequent events, including the four disciples in the temple who died of sudden illness one after another. β
After Yin Seventeen and Hua Zilai transferred to the Zen courtyard next door, the two no longer discussed the case, and finally after finding the Zen room where the beginning and the end were located, Yin Seventeen said to Hua Zilai:
"That is, if you really go out that day and night until you return from the dawn, you will go to find enlightenment, and say that tomorrow you will realize what you need to do in the future, that is, you must go all out regardless of the reason, so you don't know too much of the inside story, and you haven't even touched the edge.
After the inquiry, the beginning and the end, we have to meet for a while to understand the master, the key problem is still in the master of Wuzi, now the time is pressing, if the beginning and the end are stubborn and unwilling to explain honestly, then Brother Hua is not polite! β
Hua Zilai patted his chest and said, "No problem, leave it to me!" β
Yin Seventeen smiled and took the lead in the direction that the other disciples in the Zen Academy had asked from.
After Hua Zilai responded happily, he looked at the back of Yin Seventeen walking in front, and suddenly felt that he seemed to have unknowingly listened to Zhanyan's orders, and gradually obeyed Yin Seventeen's arrangement!
Such a sudden realization made Hua Zilai stunned for a while, until Yin Seventeen noticed that he hadn't followed, turned around and called him, and he hurriedly responded to follow.
But on the way to the beginning and end of the meditation room, Hua Zilai couldn't help but put on an inexplicable and wonderful look, so that Yin Seventeen saw it and asked him what was wrong, he only glanced at Yin Seventeen and shook his head and said it was okay.
Yin Seventeen didn't believe it, thinking that there must be something wrong with Hua Zilai, but if he didn't want to say it, she couldn't force it to say, after all, he was not a suspect.
The beginning and the end of the two meditation rooms are next to each other, right next door.
After arriving at the place, Hua Zilai first knocked on the door of the Instant Zen room, but found that the Instant Beginning was not in his meditation room at all, and then Yin Seventeen knocked on the door of the Instant Meditation Room.
It seems that he had heard the movement of Hua Zilai knocking on the door next door, and this time Yin Seventeen just knocked on it, and the door opened.
But he who opens the door is the beginning.
It doesn't seem strange that Yin Seventeen and Hua Zilai have arrived, but there is uneasiness in their eyes.
After inviting the two of them into the Jimo meditation room to sit down, he said that Jimo had a cold, took medicine and was lying on the bed to rest, so that the two of them could ask him if they had anything to say.
After asking two sentences about the condition of the end, that is, after saying that there was no major problem, Yin Seventeen said directly:
"It seems that the little master knew that we would come."
Ji Shi has always been much more timid than Ji Mo, so when he saw the scene of Xiao Zhi's death early that morning, Ji Mo fainted on the spot, and he could still run back to the temple to report to Zhan Yan and Yin Seventeen.
Hearing Yin Seventeen being so direct, Shi Ye nodded directly and admitted:
"After witnessing the tragic death of the benefactor of Xiao Zhi, he planted the seed of the devil in his heart, and this seed quickly grew in the heart of the end, and Yan Ran has grown into a towering tree......
Yin Seventeen Dao: "So, the main illness of the little master is not the wind cold, but the devil in his heart gnawing at his conscience all the time, right?" β
This is not at all politely said.
In other words, Yin Seventeen is saying that he has done terrible bad things at the end of the day, so that he can't be at peace day and night, and then he has a dark ghost in his heart, he can't eat well, he can't sleep steadily, he can't be stable at all times, and his body will inevitably be dragged down by the demons in his heart.
Immediately listened to Yin Seventeen's undisguised accusation, but he was not annoyed or angry, but a wry smile slowly appeared on the corner of his mouth:
"Amitabha! That's right! β
Maybe it's because of the torture of conscience at the end, maybe there is repentance at the beginning, or maybe the timing of Yin Seventeen and the flowers is not fast or slow, just right.
Anyway, compared to the tossing and turning in the Instant True Meditation room, Yin Seventeen was in the Immediate Meditation Room, and it didn't take the slightest effort to get the truthful explanation of the beginning.
That day, as usual, the beginning and the end went to the back mountain vegetable garden together, and when passing by the guest house, the two saw a person who ran out of the guest house in a hurry, and this person almost collided with the end head-on.
When the two of them saw who this person was, the two hurriedly saluted this person, and even after saluting, they hurriedly apologized to this person for almost bumping into this person.
However, this man looked flustered, not only stopped the end of the apology, but also told the two that they were not allowed to mention to anyone that they had seen him outside the guest house, and if anyone asked about it, they would say that they had never seen him!
That meeting was the beginning and the end, and he did not doubt him, so he answered it in one bite.
What's more, this person has a very high status in the temple, and the two of them dare not be.
Yin Seventeen asked, "Who is this person?" β
Hua Zilai also pricked up his ears and listened carefully to the next answer.
Immediately lowered his eyes slightly, lowered his head and exhaled deeply, as if he was still struggling in his heart, and after a while, he raised his head and lifted his eyes, looking at Yin Seventeen and Hua Zilai:
"Yes...... Master of the Xuanfa of the Xitang Class! β
The Xitang monk is one of the four major leaders in the Qianguang Temple, mainly responsible for presiding over the altar and the Dharma hall, and holding ordination ceremonies for the monks, instead of the first lecture on the teachings, it can be said that the Xitang monk is the third in command in the Qianguang Temple.
The presiding officer is the first, the first monk is the second, and the west monk is the third.
The status of such a character in the Thousand Lights Temple can be said to be one person below ten thousand people, and Yin Seventeen is completely understandable, that is, the beginning and the end, after receiving the warning and explanation of the Xuanfa, the two will carry it out without hesitation.
It wasn't until the two of them went to the Houshan vegetable garden to witness Xiao Zhi's tragic death that the psychology of the two became subtle, especially the end of the mouse, who had always been timid as a mouse, and thus became his inner demon until he fell ill.
Xiao Zhi's death, no matter who thinks about it afterwards, the strange behavior of the Xuanfa has become a link that immediately and ends with the tragic death of Xiao Zhi, and the two of them involuntarily connected the abnormality of the Xuanfa with the murder of Xiao Zhi, even if it could not be confirmed that the Xuanfa was the murderer, but this uncontrollable association was enough to break the psychological defense of the two.
What's more, thinking about the worst outcome, if Xuanfa is the murderer, then the beginning and the end will undoubtedly switch from the position of witnesses to the accomplices of the murderer in an instant!
Such a serious consequence is either the weight that the timid can bear in his heart, or the bolder one, and in the result of this assumption, he slowly wears away the courage to continue to conceal it.
