Sun Shaozong stroked the slightly rounded dent, and his heart was also suspicious.

According to the autopsy report, the penetrating wound on Jieming's chest was indeed caused by repeated chiseling, which is basically in line with Master Qi's inference of 'an iron drill in one hand and a hammer in the other'.

But why didn't Jieming resist?

Or is it ......

When the murderer did it, the monk Jieming was still unconscious, and although he was awake because of the severe pain, he was already powerless to return to the sky, so he only had time to desperately grab the iron hammer on his chest?

How did he get out of Fayuan Temple when he was in a coma?

Sun Shaozong was pondering here, but the two monks who came up couldn't bear it, and bowed down and said: "Amitabha, dare to ask your lords to come, but what clues have you found?" ”

"That's what you can ask?"

Qiu Yunfei glanced at them and scolded: "Go and go, hurry up and call the two of them to the main hall to ......."

"Let them go and wait in the holding room."

Sun Shaozong got up and patted the dust off his hands, and interjected: "This official is going to go to the meditation room of the precepts and precepts first. ”

The two little monks glanced at each other, and one of them immediately turned around and entered the temple.

The remaining hand was put in, and he said without being salty: "Then you can come with the little monk." ”

It is said that the shop is a big bully, and the name of this temple is no exception, even the little monk who guards the door has a good temper, and after eating Qiu Yunfei, he scolded him, and even the 'adult' refused to call.

However, after more than half a month of investigation, none of this hair was found, but two more monks died, and it is no wonder that the people of Fayuan Temple are dissatisfied with Shuntianfu.

Therefore, Sun Shaozong used his eyes to stop Qiu Yunfei's impulse, and led everyone silently into the Fayuan Temple.

As the first treasure temple in the capital, Fayuan Temple covers an area of nature is not small, after entering the door all the way to the west, successively passing through the main hall, the side hall, the bamboo forest, the rockery, the clear stream, the small bridge, the little monk pointed to the front rows of houses and said: "Uncle Jiezhi lives in the second row, Uncle Jieming lives in the third row, but I don't know which one you want to see first?" ”

When Sun Shaozong heard this, he first looked back at the main hall in the shade of the bamboo forest, measured it slightly in his heart, and found that the distance between the meditation room and the gate was at least one mile away, and there was a Taoist wall in the middle.

"In addition to the courtyard gate of this meditation room, are there other entrances and exits?"

"Naturally, no."

The little monk who led the way shook his head categorically and said, "Don't say that there is no other entrance, and at the second watch, even the only courtyard gate must be locked." ”

Tut~

According to the autopsy report, Jieming died between the third and fourth watches, and it is very likely that it was midnight Since the second watch is about to be locked, it is even more difficult to get the Jieming God out and kill him unknowingly.

It seems that it is only possible to abstain from anger with the key......

Shaking his head, temporarily suppressing this preconceived judgment in his heart, Sun Shaozong tapped the third row of courtyards with his chin and said, "Let's go to the Jieming House first." ”

It is said that all living beings are equal, but the monks in the temple are naturally treated differently according to their different identities.

For example, the young monks of the Xuanzi generation who lead the way are usually the chase shops that sleep in a room of sixteen people, and as for the monks of the precept generation, according to their different functions, only the first disciples such as abstinence and abstinence are eligible to have a meditation room of their own.

The four monks who followed Jieyi to the house arrest center that day were all employed in the Zhike Academy, and naturally lived in a double room.

But when he came to Jieming's meditation room, he saw that the doors and windows were pasted with the seals of Shuntianfu, Zhao Wuxing led a few officials forward, carefully checked them, and confirmed that they had not been demolished, so he used his waist knife to cut the door seal.

Sun Shaozong stretched out his hand and pushed, and saw that it was empty, except for tables, chairs, beds and a half-person-high cabinet, there was almost no other furniture.

But he still glanced at it a few times before stepping inside.

Master Qi followed closely behind, pointing to the two beds and said, "The one on the left is the bed for the precepts, and the one on the right is for the abstinence." ”

"Quit?"

Sun Shaozong frowned, and said in a deep voice: "In this way, the rest of the country also lives here?" Then why didn't you mention this in the case file? ”

Master Qi was a little embarrassed by his questioning, but he still explained truthfully: "After all, there is a conclusive alibi for Jieming, and after Jieming's death, he also temporarily moved to the guest room of the East Cross Courtyard and did not sleep in this meditation room, so he ......"

Sun Shaozong nodded, reluctantly agreeing with his explanation, but turned his face and asked about the relationship between Jieming and Jiexiu.

"These two are said to have been small before they became monks, and they were ordained at Faming Temple almost at the same time, so the relationship is excellent, otherwise they would not have lived in the same meditation room."

"However, after the death of the martial guard, because only the martial arts did not have an alibi and was identified as the first suspect, the martial guard will inevitably have some doubts and fears, so he will move to the East Cross Courtyard for a temporary stay."

While listening to Master Qi's explanation, Sun Shaozong looked around and found nothing elsewhere, only a stack of hand-copied scriptures on the desk, about 20 pages.

The dozen or so pages on it were messy, but when I turned to the back, the handwriting gradually became neat.

At the end of the text, the words "Fayuan Temple Jieming, transcribed on July 14, 11th year of Guangde", and this was also the day before Jieming was killed.

Master Qi saw Sun Shaozong looking through those scriptures, so he said: "This must be the scriptures that the monk Jieming copied in panic and anxiety in order to calm his mind, so the chaos of copying at the beginning, and then gradually settled down, and it was written neatly." ”

Sun Shaozong was noncommittal to his inference, but took the stack of scriptures to the door and looked at them repeatedly in the sun.

"Your Excellency."

Qiu Yunfei came up curiously, and also looked at it a few times, but he really couldn't see anything to see, and couldn't help but wonder: "You looked so carefully, what did you see rare?" ”

"It's not rare."

Sun Shaozong said indifferently: "But these scriptures did not come out on the same day, but took several days to finish in addition, he did not write more and more calm, but the more he wrote, the more irritable he became, and the reason why they were neatly organized later had nothing to do with the scriptures themselves." ”

When Master Qi heard this, he also hurriedly came up, asked Sun Shaozong for the scriptures, and learned from his appearance, carefully sifting them line by line.

After a while, he screamed 'oops' and said in annoyance, "It really wasn't written on the same day!" The student was really careless, and hurriedly looked through it twice, and saw that it was just an ordinary scripture, so he didn't have too much idea, who would have thought about it......"

On the side, Qiu Yunfei still couldn't see what was going on, and wondered: "How do you know that this scripture was not written in a day?" Besides, what's the use of knowing that it wasn't written in a day? ”

"Yanai, please see."

Master Qi naturally didn't dare to snub him, and hurriedly pointed to the scripture and explained: "Although there is no difference at first glance, if you look at it carefully in the sun, you can still vaguely distinguish some differences in the ink color between the words, and these color differences should be caused by re-studying and writing in ink after a considerable period of time." ”

"And in these places of color difference, the degree of neatness of the upper and lower characters is also greater than that in other places, and the words above the color difference are obviously more confusing, which shows that he did become more and more upset the more he wrote, so he failed to copy this scripture several times in a row."

"As for the use of knowing this......

"Since it is not the role of copying scriptures, the monk must have encountered something that suppressed the panic in his heart."

"Next, as long as you can figure out what caused his emotional changes, it is possible to find clues to solve the case."

As he spoke, he arched his hand with shame and admiration: "The ability of the adults to see the subtleties really makes the students embarrassed. ”
