Listening carefully, the footsteps of the monk who locked the door had drifted away, and Jiang Li couldn't wait to move his body to Bai Bait, and said quietly.

"White bait, quick, help me loose."

"I don't let go! Be loose and loose! ”

Bai Bait said indifferently, his cold gaze moved to the skylight, and he no longer looked at him.

Such an indifferent attitude really made him a little sleepy, and he stepped forward, raised his eyebrows at her, and asked.

"What's wrong with you?"

After all, he couldn't help it, and Bai Bait replied lightly.

"You're guilty of a crime now, and it's not a small crime! Why do you loosen the tie? Fear of crime and abscond? ”

Hearing this, Jiang Li felt a little funny and hurriedly spoke.

"Fear of sin? What do I have to fear, and it's not me ......"

As he spoke, he suddenly stopped talking and silently lowered his head.

Seeing this, Bai Bait sneered and immediately asked rhetorically.

"You mean, you didn't do it, did you?"

Seeing that the general was silent, she continued.

"Now you know you didn't do it? Since you did not do it, what sin do you confess? ”

When she asked this, she suddenly paused, and a trace of panic flashed in her thoughtful eyes. Then he asked worriedly.

"The incense money, shouldn't it, shouldn't it really be that you stole it?"

"What did you say, white bait?" was suddenly excited by her words, and Jiang Li finally couldn't help but defend her: "How can I steal the money?" ”

"It's not..."Looking at his suddenly excited expression, Bai Bait's heart couldn't help but be shocked, his eyes were cold, and he raised his throat and rebuked: "You didn't steal it, so why do you want to confess!" ”

During the day, she swore in front of hundreds of people that if they did it, there would be no regrets, and if they didn't do it, they wouldn't admit it.

Now, if he does this, isn't he admitting that he is a thief? Now even if there are thousands of mouths, you can't tell!

was so speechless by her question, for a while that he didn't know how to interface, he slurred for a long time, and said hard.

"Then why do I admit it, don't you know?"

"And how do I know?"

She frowned and was confused for a long time before wondering.

He cares so much about his prestige, isn't she bent on helping him confess the crime of stealing the backyard, just to help him clear his name and let the world know that he is innocent?

It's good that he doesn't understand his intentions, and now he blames her in turn.

"You don't know, you know what you know!" Her misunderstandings and incomprehensions again and again completely made him a little sad. Helplessly, he said angrily: "You don't know anything! ”

"I-"

Bai Bait was also so anxious that he was speechless, and suddenly felt that the more he listened, the more chaotic he became, didn't there be one thing to say and two to say two in the past, but now what's going on?

"In front of the Great Hall of Immeasurable Merit during the day, in front of so many people, you also doubt me, I really didn't expect it, and now you are doubting me again!" Jiang Li took a deep breath, met her incomprehensible eyes, and mustered up the courage to ask: "I am in your heart, am I so untrustworthy?" ”

She didn't know, in the daytime, when she asked herself over and over again if she had stolen the incense money, his heart was like being slashed by a knife.

In fact, he is not afraid of hundreds of people's words and swords at all, he is only afraid that she doesn't believe him.

He can accept everyone's misunderstanding, but he can't accept her distrust.

Now, she asked the same thing again, and this time, whether it was unintentional words or doubts from his heart, he didn't have the heart to think about it anymore.

After all, in her heart, he is a real thief, stealing the backyard is stealing, stealing incense money is also stealing, stealing what is not stealing, this makes no difference at all.

Think about it this way, and it's good to recognize this sin! If you are a thief, you should be beaten to death with a stick, and you cannot be forgiven!

"No, I'm ...... during the day"

Bai Bait was in a hurry to explain, she wanted to say that she was in a hurry to ask.

But is that so?

"You also stole the incense money?"

"Nope!"

"You tell the truth!"

"You don't believe me?"

... ...

Thinking about the events of the day, Bai Bait only felt that his mind was messed up.

In the face of so many people's suspicions, she shouldn't have doubted him......

"I'll know I didn't mean that." She tilted her head and tried to catch his eyes that were eclipsed at the moment, and she also tried to explain, "I have always believed in you." ”

He could know what she meant, so could she know what she meant?

Jiang Li pursed the corners of his lips and asked secretly in his heart.

"Alright, I got it."

From his tone, she could clearly feel the sense of loss in his heart. Bai Bait didn't know how to interface anymore, she wanted to explain a few more words, but the more she explained, the more she seemed to want to cover up.

She bit the corner of her lip and lowered her head in silence.

Hearing him break free of the rope again, her puzzled gaze followed his sturdy body to the skylight, and she asked anxiously.

"Where are you going?"

"Find out the truth and prove my innocence to you!"

He replied reluctantly.

Afraid that he would suddenly fly away, she immediately approached the skylight, raised her worried eyes, and admonished him.

"But, the temple is about to be opened, and you-"

"Come back before dawn."

After a brief explanation, he grabbed the window out of the window, and as for what she said, he didn't hear clearly.

A touch of clear light sprinkled on the window edge, very desolate.

Bai Bait retracted his gaze, lowered his eyes, and secretly chewed on what he had just said, "Prove my innocence to you", a few words, fell on the bottom of her heart, but it was loud.

She knew, and he still felt like he didn't believe him. Search the e-book

Huixin meditation room, winding paths lead to seclusion.

"How's it going, is there any movement on the abbot's side?"

Hearing the little monk knocking on the door, Elder Sun immediately greeted him and asked.

The little monk leaned into Elder Sun's ear and whispered.

"The person who was guarding outside the abbot's courtyard came to report, and half an hour ago, he saw the abbot leave the monastery and go to the green mountain bamboo forest, and now he should have arrived at the small bamboo house he often visited."

"What is he doing there if he has nothing to do? Didn't you attack the one in the glazed tower? ”

Elder Sun gritted his teeth and was a little angry, with a panicked look on his face.

Seeing this, the little monk hurriedly comforted: "Elder, don't worry, listen to what the little monk has to say." In addition, our people also found that several young monks who were waiting with the abbot secretly went to the glazed pagoda after the abbot left, but they were still outside the pagoda and had not yet entered. ”

"Are you sure those men were sent by the camel?" Elder Sun asked.

"Our people watched them come out of the abbot with their own eyes, and besides, as soon as the abbot left, they went, it must have been sent by the abbot, there is no mistake!" The little monk said firmly.

"In this way, the camel is preparing to take the opportunity of promoting the female thief to take people to the green mountains and bamboo forests." Elder Sun analyzed.

The little monk smiled and said, "After all, this is the temple, if the abbot wants to think about the female thief, he will always be afraid of you and Elder Tang." ”

Elder Sun raised his eyes and looked out the window, frowned and said, "But this is about to be controlled, why didn't the person sent by the camel mention it!" ”

"Oh elder, it's not that you don't know, the abbot has always been like this, he has a thief's heart but not a thief's courage! If you promote it too early, you will inevitably see something from the people in the temple, and when the door is closed and there are fewer people, don't you just want to promote the female thief? ”

The little monk said self-righteously.

"Useless stuff!" Biting the name "Zhang Hunchback" in his lips and teeth, Elder Sun couldn't help it, and scolded coldly, his face full of worry, "That hunchback is a fool." If you go to Liuli Tati too late, the two people in the tower will definitely be suspicious! And that female thief is very fierce, I'm afraid she won't go with those people easily! ”

"What then?" After listening to the elder's words, the little monk began to get anxious.

Elder Sun paced in front of the window, looking out of the window, his deep eyes revealed a bit of caution, and after a long time, he slowly spoke.

"Since the abbot is in a mood tonight, let's help him!"

After that, he beckoned the little monk to come over.

After getting the good advice, the little monk nodded knowingly, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but flow a smile.

"Now there is less than a cup of tea before the curfew, and as expected, those people should be going to pick up people after the curfew. Then we'll get ahead of them. Elder Sun admonished.

"The little monk understands."

"By the way, how is Elder Tang's inquiry?" Elder Sun suddenly asked.

"The little monk heard that Elder Tang had been investigating the serial case since the afternoon, and he should have slept at this time. I also heard that the elders will go to Xuantie Ridge outside the temple early tomorrow morning. The little monk replied.

Hearing this, Elder Sun couldn't help but smack his tongue: "It's not good to go when you go, you have to go tomorrow morning." He's gone, who's going to catch the rape in bed? Doesn't that mess up my plans! ”

"Elder, don't worry, think about it carefully, what kind of place is Xuantie Ridge." The little monk reminded.

Seeing that Elder Sun was still a little puzzled, he analyzed: "If you want to go to Xuantieling, you must pass through Xianweng Peak, as long as you find one of our people to go with the elder, when the elder is tired, he will persuade him to go into the green mountain bamboo forest to rest, and then lead him to the small bamboo house." Isn't that what you're trying to achieve? ”

"In this way, he went to Xuantieling, he went well, he went wonderfully!" Elder Sun nodded with satisfaction, and then ordered: "Then tomorrow morning, you can go with him, anyway, you are familiar with that small bamboo house, you go, be safe." ”

"Okay!" The little monk's heart suddenly blossomed, thinking about the stunning picture in the small bamboo house tomorrow morning, he was so excited that he couldn't help himself.

"I've been waiting for so long, and it's finally time to wait for this day! This time, the camel will inevitably be expelled from the temple gate. It won't be long before the abbot will be mine! ”

Thinking of this, Elder Sun couldn't help but laugh.

Half a month ago, the former abbot passed away unexpectedly, the dragon in the temple has no leader, Elder Tang has no intention of the abbot from beginning to end, other monks have a little ability, but the ability is uneven, he is full of ambition, has the heart to try, is about to volunteer when he said, the former abbot disciple said, there are disciples to forget it, but it is still the greedy and lustful camel, several other old people in the temple in order to comply with the former abbot's wishes, catch the duck on the shelf, the camel once pushed to the abbot's position.

He would have no complaints if he had elected other capable monks, but he would never have agreed to let that camel be the presiding officer.

He is also a highly respected person in the temple, which point is worse than that camel? Do you want him to call the camel abbot? That's simply humiliating yourself.

After thinking about it for so long, I finally don't have to suffer that kind of shame anymore.

Elder Sun remembered the past, and his heart suddenly rose and fell, and he could no longer be calm.

Seeing that it was rare for Elder Sun to be so happy, the little monk hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

"Congratulations to the elder, Elder Hexi, oh no, abbot, abbot!"

Hearing this, Elder Sun smiled proudly.

"But the abbot, forgive the little monk for being stupid, the little monk has always been unable to figure it out, you want to push Zhang hunchback off the abbot's position, why do you have to use such a trick? Zhang Hunchback usually makes a lot of mistakes, and it's not easy to catch him? ”

The little monk showed a face of humbly seeking advice.

"That camel has violated countless temple rules since he was a child, but hasn't he become the eldest disciple of the previous elder! The mistakes he made, just find one to drive him off the mountain, but those old people in the temple forgave him from time to time and tolerated him everywhere because he was a big disciple and was entrusted by the previous abbot, and it was not so easy to push him off the abbot position! ”

Speaking of this, Elder Sun was so angry that his eyes were full of stars.

In the past half a month, he has caught all the big handles he can grasp, but every time in front of Elder Tang, the camel can always be deceived in the past, and he can be said to have been defeated repeatedly!

"The biggest taboo in the temple is lust, Elder Tang can't tolerate these unclean things in his eyes, that camel has fallen into our trap step by step this time, and he will definitely attack that female thief tonight!" Oh, he can't escape anymore! ”

"Yes! The abbot is obsessed, this time it's going to be over! ”

In the thin gauze window, the firelight was dim, and two ugly faces were faintly reflected.

The night breeze is gentle, mashing a pool of clear light.

Huiming Zen room, flowers and trees.

Alone with the lonely lamp, it was difficult to stop worrying, Elder Tang couldn't help but sigh lightly, and his face became more and more old.

Hearing a knock at the door, he frowned and asked, "Who?" ”

"Master, Wuming is here." Outside the door.

famous, he immediately beckoned, "Fast forward!" ”

After entering the meditation room, Wu Ming didn't care about etiquette, and immediately stepped forward and said, "Master, there is a clue to the matter you asked me to investigate." ”

"If you have any clues, come quickly." Elder Tang's eyes lit up and said.

"The disciple found a hole behind the Xiangzhu on the east wall of the Hundred Flowers Garden. This hole leads to the Hall of Immeasurable Merit! "Enlightened and correct.

Elder Tang was a little surprised, and secretly thought to himself, "Then how can there be a hole?" ”

Then he asked, "What is the connection between this hole and the serial case?" ”

Wuming silently took out a string of rosewood Buddhist beads from his arms and presented them to the master.

Under the firelight, the Buddha beads shone with a little light, and Elder Tang frowned, a little dumbfounded. "This Buddha bead ......"

"This string of Buddhist beads was found by the disciple in the crack in the stone under the broken wall."

The night breeze blows, and the flowers and trees are deep.
