Early in the morning of the second day, Qin Yiming was about to go out to the county office, but as soon as he went out, he was stopped by a strange man.

"May I ask you, Lord Qin?"

Qin Yiming glanced at the man, who seemed to be a small rich man.

"Why are you looking for my young master?" The little monkey asked.

The man pounced and knelt down and bowed: "Lord Qin, help, Lord Qin, help!" ”

Qin Yiming was puzzled and said: "This gentleman, what are you doing, this official is an officer, not a big man in the yamen, if you have any grievances, you can go to the county government to shout grievances." ”

"No, no, no, Mr. Ming said, if you meet the light, you will live, and if you meet the dark, you will die, I want to think about it, this can only be Lord Qin, isn't there exactly a clear word in Lord Qin's name?!" The man said.

Hey, it's a fortune teller again, why are there so many fortune tellers in this era, and everyone still believes it, it's really helpless!

"Don't always believe in those gods and ghosts, you have to find evidence to prove your innocence!" Qin Yiming didn't bother to say more, so he was ready to leave.

The man didn't give up, pulled Qin Yiming's calf, and cried: "Adults save me, a few months ago I was in the field, I met a strange crazy old man outside a wine shop, a pot of wine to calculate the number of fate, as soon as I asked the famous god Guo Yuzi, I bought a pot of wine for him, and he gave me a few words: teach to live and live, teach to wash and wash, one stone valley pounded three buckets of rice, when it is light, it is live, and when it is dark, it is dead, everything in front has been fulfilled, and now I can only hope that Lord Qin will save me!" ”

Qin Yiming was helpless, so he asked, "What's the matter with you?" ”

The man said, "When I was home yesterday, my wife told me to take a bath, and I thought of the fortune teller's words, so she refused to wash it, and my wife was angry, so she went into the bathroom herself, and was stabbed to death by a spear sticking out of the wall, and my wife ...... My wife didn't know who had killed her, and I was so scared that I escaped, and now I can't argue with anyone, begging my lord for help! ”

Qin Yiming sent the man to the yamen.

He also figured out the man's affairs, the man Wang Hao, who was out of business all the year round, when he was in Suizhou, God calculated Guo Yuzi to calculate a hexagram for him, Guo Yuzi told him, if someone wants you to live, you must not live, if someone wants you to take a bath, you must not wash, a stone of millet can grind three buckets of rice out, and when you meet an official whose name contains the word "Ming", you will be able to live, otherwise there is only one way to die.

Wang Hao walked on the road with his companions, encountered heavy rain on the way, and everyone suggested finding an empty house nearby to shelter from the rain. So he insisted on braving the rain to hurry, when he didn't go far, the house collapsed, his companions were crushed to death, Wang Hao returned home, his wife prepared hot water for him, let him take a hot bath, he thought again: teach to wash Mo wash, so he insisted on refusing to wash, and then his wife got angry and went to wash himself, he only heard a scream, ran in to see, his wife was stabbed to death by a spear stretched out from the wall.

The frightened Wang Hao didn't know what was going on, Qin Yiming's name had already spread all over Anlu County, and he felt that it was Qin Yiming who was referring to him, so he ran to wait outside Qin Yiming's mansion.

Sun Shirui felt that this case was too unbelievable, but according to Qin Yiming's method, he also went to investigate the scene in person, and the woman was indeed pierced by a spear outside the house, stabbing the woman to death, the spear was still stuck in the wooden wall, and there were a little blood stains.

But what made Sun Shirui excited, he found a few more wooden beads.

"Brother, don't you think this thing looks like a monk's Buddha bead?" Sun Shirui kept touching the wooden beads, and suddenly said.

"Well, it's a bit like that!" Qin Yiming nodded.

"These two families are near Yingshan Temple, and both of them are renting the land of the temple, this can't have anything to do with the monks in the Yingshan Temple, right?!" Sun Shirui continued to speculate.

"But there are more than a dozen monks in this Yingshan Temple, how can we determine which one it is? And the pure place of Buddhism, if there is not enough evidence, we are not good to arrest people, this Yingshan Temple in the minds of the people's status, that is not violated! "Sun Shirui is very scruples, otherwise he will disturb the important place of Buddhism at will.

"Hey, what's there to scruple about this, it's not long before you go directly to Yingshan Temple to arrest people?" The little monkey interjected, he felt that Sun Shirui's thoughts were too redundant, just a few monks, catch them back and check and interrogate, what is not okay!

Sun Shirui immediately shook his head and said: "No, absolutely not, the new host of Yingshan Temple, the Taoist Buddha, that is deeply loved by the people, every time he opens the altar to sit and speak, the following is overcrowded, if we don't handle it well, it will cause civil unrest!" ”

"Civil unrest? Hmph, with me here, he can't mess up! Qin Yiming didn't think so, but this world has the rules of this world, and he can only obey it, and he can only think long-term about Yingshan Temple's suspicions.

"But it's not necessarily that monks have Buddha beads, Daming Buddhism abounds, and every family may have Buddha beads."

"Are the monks of Yingshan Temple lame?" Qin Yiming suddenly asked.

"No, not only is there no Yingshan Temple, there is nothing nearby, but there are many in your guard, but it is so far away, it is impossible!" Sun Shirui replied.

Qin Yiming was disappointed for a while, "If there is no cripple, use the elimination method, it will be big and small, tomorrow we will go to Yingshan Temple first." ”

"Arrest?" The little monkey asked.

"Donate sesame oil money!"

In recent months, the drought has made many people worried, at this time the common practice of the ancients is to ask for rain, the people of Anlu County did just that, they ran to Yingshan Temple, and asked the Taoist monk Buddha to set up an altar for everyone to ask for rain.

Buddha Xian is also duty-bound, came to Anlu County, put the altar of the law, openly begged for rain, the people kneeling under the altar are countless, and the donated sesame oil is also innumerable, but this has been asking for more than ten days, and it still does not rain.

Because he had to pray for rain without stopping, the Living Buddha simply took a few younger brothers to live in an inn in the city.

"Living Buddha, today Lord Qin took a few officials to the temple to donate sesame oil money, and let each of us slippers show him, saying that he dreamed, and the Buddha dreamed that he had a major disaster recently, and he needed to find a person with a big foot and a small foot to pray for him, you said it was strange or not, and I don't know if it was true!" A little novice said.

"Oh? Is there such a thing? Are there any of you who are big or small and have two different feet? Lord Qin is a good official, if Lord Qin needs it, it is a blessing for us, our White Lotus Sect has always been suppressed by the government, and now we want to develop in Anlu, and it is beneficial for us to have a good relationship with Lord Qin! Buddha said.

"No, there shouldn't be one in our temple!"

In the next half month, the Living Buddha still kept begging for rain, but God didn't seem to be moved by the sincerity of the Living Buddha, and there was not a single tear!

Some people have lost their patience and ask the Buddha why it doesn't rain!

"Living Buddha, why has it not rained for more than ten days, is it that we are not pious enough!" Those kind and hard-working people are extremely anxious.

The living Buddha looks like he is in his fifties, and he is very peaceful and friendly, he closed his eyes for a long time, and said slowly: "Originally, the poor monk knew that it was useless to ask for rain, and he couldn't ask for it, but the poor monk thought of the people, so he came to do his best, it seems that this filth is not removed, God is unwilling to rain!" ”

Filth?

The people below began to boil, according to the meaning of the living Buddha, this god has not rained for several months, because there are dirty things in this Anlu County, so God has condemned it!

"Living Buddha, what does this filth mean?" One by one, the people were filled with righteous indignation.

"If this filth is not removed, it will hardly rain." Buddha Xian said solemnly.

The people below are all angry, this is already very obvious, there must be a little lady in a family who is pregnant before marriage, or that unchaste woman steals a man to get pregnant!

"Who is this man? Let's find out and burn her! I don't know who shouted it first, and it immediately resonated with everyone.

"Yes, burn her!"

"Burn her!"

The crowd was filled with righteous indignation, and many people began to look for the big-bellied woman all over the street, and when they met it, they were going to grab and ask them, making the city full of wind and rain, and they were all angry, this unchaste person harmed the people of their entire Anlu County, and everyone wanted to kill him to vent his anger.

Buddha Xian saw that his few words had successfully ignited these ignorant people, and his heart was filled with joy.

When the angry crowd searched for the big-bellied woman all over the street, Xu Zhen'er began to be afraid, she immediately found the little monkey and asked the little monkey to take someone to Xu Zhen'er to the house.

After Kang Shengnan heard this, she was also afraid, but she didn't want to go to the Qin Mansion, after all, she and Qin Yiming were not a legal husband and wife at this time. However, under Cui'er's forcible pull, and she wanted to protect her child, she was still careful, so she still went to the Qin Mansion.

For Xu Zhen'er's caution, Kang Shengnan's heart was frightened, Qin Yiming didn't think so, these people are too inexplicable, it doesn't rain and it can be related to a pregnant woman, it's really nonsense, he didn't think much about it.

However, this Buddha is not a good thing, a monk, this obviously wants people's lives.

"Zhen'er, Katsuo, you are all at home with you, with me, no one dares to touch a single hair of yours, you can rest assured!" Qin Yiming said with relief.

Xu Zhen'er took Kang Shengnan's hand and said, "Hmph, this is our father-in-law's first child, whoever dares to hurt him to death, I will fight with that person!" ”

"This isn't necessarily aimed at us, I think it's because the monk can't ask for rain, so he just made an excuse." Xiao Yue'er guessed, and everyone felt that Xiao Yue'er's guess was reasonable.

Kang Shengnan touched his belly, he is only three months pregnant now, it is not very obvious, and the clothes Kang Shengnan is wearing are relatively loose, and he can't see it at all if he doesn't look carefully.

But she feels very happy now, although she has not crossed the door, but Xu Zhen'er values her belly so much, and she is not jealous at all, which makes her have a good impression of Xu Zhen'er and is very moved.

"Thank you, sister!"
