What does Venerable An Cheng mean? Xiling Yue lowered her eyes and pondered.

"West Ridge." She was thinking about it when she suddenly heard Li Chengxuan calling her, so she raised her head and listened to him continue, "Do you remember how tall the Venerable Master is?" ”

Xi Lingyue recalled for a moment, and compared it with her hand on her chin: "So high." ”

As soon as she finished speaking, her heart suddenly brightened, and she couldn't help but say "ah": "Where is this bloody handprint...... Very high! ”

After being reminded by her and Li Chengxuan, everyone also suddenly realized. The murals under this corridor are very tall and large, each painting is two people high, and I think that Wu Daozi had to step on a ladder when he painted.

And the bloody handprints left by Master An Cheng, one is on the chest of the Emperor, and the other is on the hand of Jinnara Weiqu, and the position is not low.

But as we all know, Master An Cheng was a native of Fusang, also known as the "Wa Kingdom", and the people were short in stature. He only reached Xilingyue's jaw, and in the eyes of the Tang Dynasty man, he was already short.

Xiling Yue tried to bend her knees to the height of Venerable An Cheng, raised her hand to touch the bloody handprint on Naro's body, and stretched out her arm just enough to feel it. She walked over to the mural of Shakti and repeated the motion, but she couldn't touch the bloody handprint.

In this way, if the Venerable Master An Cheng wanted to touch Shakti's chest, he had to jump high to barely reach it. But he was already seriously injured and on the verge of death, so why did he struggle to jump? What clues did he want to leave behind?

"According to what Master Zhen Luo said, this is a Buddhist blessing ceremony, so what did he think before he died, he had to touch the chest of Emperor Shakti?" Guo Zhongting couldn't figure it out.

Xiling Yue asked, "Ask Zen Master Guangxuan, what are the emperors and kinnara good at in the eight divisions?" Touching their bodies, can any wish be fulfilled? ”

Zen Master Guangxuan racked his brains to think for a moment and replied: "Emperor Shakti is the protector of the Dharma, the god of war who throws thunder and lightning, and is cultivated by a woman into an emperor's body. According to the teachings of the Buddhist scriptures, anyone who does good deeds and accumulates virtue can be reincarnated as Shakti. ”

"Where's Kinara?"

"Kinnara is good at singing and dancing, and is the god of music for Shakti."

In other words, Shakti symbolizes war, the emperor, and the relationship between master and servant. If Venerable An Cheng is praying, then his wish is ...... The world stops the war? Singing and dancing? Xi Lingyue said this, even she couldn't believe it.

However, as soon as she said this, a thought suddenly flashed in her mind, an extremely terrifying thought, which made her gradually suspicious, and she couldn't help but look at Li Chengxuan.

Li Chengxuan stared at her for a long time, and his face gradually sank, and even Guo Zhongting understood the undercurrent between the two - if Venerable An Cheng was really hinting at the murderer, then Emperor Shakti only represented one person - the emperor.

At this moment, Xiao Yi, who had not spoken, suddenly broke his silence: "Yue'er, don't forget, the bloody handprints are only found on Emperor Shakti and Kinara. Perhaps the Venerable Master was not praying, nor was he implying any master-servant, but he just wanted to tell us that the murderer was a woman. ”

Woman?! This inference was thrown out, and the rest of the people felt that it was reasonable: the emperor was cultivated by a woman into a male body, and Kinnara himself was a female body, which was indeed in line with the conjecture that the murderer was a woman.

At least it is more reasonable than the murderer is the saint today. If it was really the Son of Heaven who sent someone to attack, what was the motive? What is the explanation for the bloody handprints on Kinara's body? Moreover, if the Son of Heaven wanted to kill someone, he would definitely send a master to kill him with one blow, and he would never slash behind the Venerable Master An Cheng, so that he would have the opportunity to leave clues on the mural.

"Tianlong Babu, women, key ......" Xiling Yue muttered to herself, and a candidate suddenly flashed in her heart.

Obviously, not only she thought of it, but everyone present thought of it, and even Zen Master Guangxuan had doubts, pointing to the mural of Jinnara: "Ah! The poor monk suddenly remembered...... Kinara also has a Sanskrit name called ...... Called......"

"What's it called?" Jiang Wei stammered with him.

"Called...... Zhendra. ”

Zhendra? Master Zhen Luo? Several people remembered that Master An Cheng helped her transport the cage, was the key related to the secret of the cage?

Even Li Chengxuan's always calm face was cloudy, and he was puzzled: "If Master Zhen Luo has any problems, you will know if you try it." ”

"Her Royal Highness the Queen Mother's birthday is imminent, please Guangxuan Zen Master arrange a ceremony as soon as possible, invite the monks to pray for the Queen Mother, and be sure to invite Master Zhen Luo to also be present. As the son of the Queen Mother, and Guo Jungong, as the grandson of the Queen Mother, will also attend that day, looking for an opportunity to stumble her. ”

"Xiling and Jiming took the opportunity to go to Master Zhen Luo's residence to look for clues related to this case, and this king will ask two friends from the rivers and lakes to assist you. Remember, you can't reveal your identity in any case, so as not to startle the snake. ”

"What about the lower officials?" Jiang Wei was very dissatisfied when he saw that he did not let himself participate in the whole plan.

"You take someone to lurk near Anguo Temple and Master Zhen Luo's residence, and if she makes any changes, she will be arrested immediately."

- This is Li Chengxuan's whole plan.

In order to cultivate tacit understanding, the night before the action, he specially arranged a delicacies, officially introducing two friends from the rivers and lakes to Xilingyue, Guo Zhongting and Xiao Yi: the two are a pair of brothers and sisters, the man is in his early thirties, taciturn, burly, and a feng shui plate never leaves his hand; The woman is twenty-five or sixteen, talkative and laughing, petite, with an extremely ordinary white yarn wrapped around her waist and a big purse tied.

No one knows what their real names are, but their names are resounding all over the world: the senior brother is known as the "Divine Genius", and the junior sister is nicknamed "Wonderful Empty Hands".

As the name suggests, one is good at solving mechanisms, and the other is a thief.

Xilingyue has never mixed the rivers and lakes, and it is the first time she has heard the great names of these two people, so she inadvertently blurted out: "One is good at organs, the other is good at stealing, and the two should go to rob tombs!" ”

When the words fell, the room suddenly fell into a dead silence, and the face of the senior brother Jingjing'er changed a few times.

Xilingyue shuddered, and before she could apologize, she heard her junior sister say with a smile: "How do you know that we are tomb robbers?" ”

Ay? Did you really make yourself guess right? Xiling Yue was stunned for a moment.

Kongkong'er hid his face and smiled: "Does the county lord know, how did our senior brothers and sisters get acquainted with the prince?" Although she was asking, she didn't expect Xilingyue to answer, and said to herself, "We're the ones who robbed the tomb and met!" ”

"Will the prince go to rob the tomb?" Xilingyue didn't believe it at all.

"No, the prince is going to guard the mausoleum."

Xiling Yue was taken aback: "Then you are going to steal...... Stealing the Imperial Tomb? ”

"It's just a burial grave." Kongkonger shook the white yarn around his waist and recalled with a smile, "How old was the prince at that time?" Sixteen or seventeen? It seems that he made a mistake and was punished by his Lao Tzu to guard the mausoleum of Daizong, and happened to run into the two of us. ”

Kongkonger said, and glanced at Li Chengxuan: "My senior brother's plan is seamless, who expected that the prince is also a good worker, and he actually saw our whereabouts." ”

"Oh! Could it be that the prince and the two have similar interests, and they became confidants at first sight and let you go? Xiling Yue speculated later.

Li Chengxuan coughed lightly: "Almost." ”

However, Kongkonger didn't save him face at all, and directly pierced: "Who said that? It was my senior brother who made a bet with the prince to see who could crack the mechanism first, and when the senior brother won, he had to let us go. ”
