Chapter 199: Doubts

The cold wind swirls in front of the temple of Xiangshan Temple, the fallen leaves in front of the temple are flying non-stop, and the clothes of the middle-aged monk are dancing, making him look like a Buddha, the middle-aged monk at this time looks calm and speaks plainly, but after he said this, the whole Xiangshan Temple suddenly became noisy.

The noisy people are still those pilgrims, they are bustling and noisy, as if those few troublemakers have angered the Buddha, and they will also suffer, so they absolutely do not allow a few troublemakers to anger the Buddha, they want to do it.

Su Wuming didn't expect this middle-aged monk to have such appeal, and he just said a few words very plainly, and then made these pilgrims indignant.

However, this middle-aged monk met Su Wuming, and Su Wuming would never allow what he wanted to do not be able to do.

Those troublemakers are very hesitant now, and now someone stands up and asks them what they are doing, but these pilgrims still regard them as enemies, but when they see Su Wuming's temperament that cannot be despised by others, their courage suddenly became a little bigger, and then the leading man stood up and said: "If you want to say what we are doing here, then you have to talk about it, two days ago, our wife came to this Xiangshan Temple to make incense and make a vow, and said that she would go back in a day, but now it has been two days, but it is still missing, My lord was worried, so he asked me to wait and ask, but who would have thought that before we could ask, this group of bald donkeys wanted to drive us away. ”

As soon as this remark came out, there was an uproar all around, but although it was an uproar, there were people who supported and some people who opposed, and then, everyone turned their eyes on the middle-aged monk, the middle-aged monk's face was calm, and after listening to the person, he smiled indifferently and said: "The donor will really wronged me Xiangshan Temple, my Xiangshan Temple receives pilgrims every day There are not a thousand but eight hundred, and there are one or two hundred people who stay here every day. Xiangshan Temple is a place for Buddhism to cultivate, how can you force your wife to stay? Maybe your wife left Xiangshan Temple and went somewhere else. ”

The middle-aged monk's words were still calm, and what he said was reasonable, and the troublemakers were speechless for a while, and finally said angrily: "If my wife leaves, she will definitely return to the house, but she is not, she must still be in your Xiangshan Temple, are you willing to let me wait for a search?" ”

When the middle-aged monk heard this, his brows condensed slightly, and he said, "What kind of place is Xiangshan Temple, how can you be allowed to search indiscriminately?" Who can be sure that you are not trying to find an excuse to come to my Xiangshan Temple to make trouble? ”

The middle-aged monk's words were sharp, and the few troublemakers were just a group of reckless people, and the middle-aged monks could be said there, so in less than a moment, those troublemakers were a little short of words, and finally back and forth was nothing more than those few words, the bald donkey was afraid, and the bald donkey had the ability to search.

Several of them barked baldly, and finally angered those pilgrims, and they were angry to drive those troublemakers down, this time, Su Wuming didn't say much else, just looked at everything in front of him, and was silent.

Those troublemakers were driven down, Su Wuming waved his hand to Jiang Ying, and said, "You follow those people down the mountain, and then find a way to find out whether what they said is true or not, and whether their wife is really missing here." ”

Jiang Ying bowed slightly, and then quietly left Xiangshan Temple, and after Jiang Ying left, Su Wuming walked towards the middle-aged monk and said, "The master is really highly respected, there are so many believers, I don't know what the master's name is?" ”

The quarrel just now can be said to have been provoked by Su Wuming, so this middle-aged monk doesn't have much of a good face towards Su Wuming, but he claims to be a member of Buddhism, so he naturally wants to treat all beings equally and kindly, so when Su Wuming asked, he still suppressed his anger and said calmly: "Poor monk Wuqi, is the supervisor of this Xiangshan Temple, I don't know if the donor has other things?" ”

Su Wuming smiled lightly: "It's not a big deal, it's just that we think the scenery of Xiangshan Temple is beautiful, and I want to live here for a while longer, I don't know if it's okay?" ”

Monk Wuqi clasped his hands together and said, "This is naturally possible, and the donors can go to the guest room to get the room card." ”

After the monk Wuqi finished speaking, he said Amitabha, and then turned around and entered the Xiangshan Temple, and at this time, those pilgrims have been busy one after another, some went straight down the mountain, some went to the incense to repay the vows, the main hall of the Xiangshan Temple, soon it became lively, mixed with the bell Sanskrit singing, but also quite able to calm people's hearts.

Su Wuming and the others were wandering outside the temple, and Nangong Yan asked a little puzzled: "Su Lang, do you suspect that there is something in this Xiangshan Temple?" ”

Su Wuming smiled: "There are scoundrels looking for trouble every day in the world, but people who climb such a high mountain to find trouble in this Xiangshan Temple are rare, if there is really something wrong with the wind, who will work so hard to climb so high and offend so many believers in Xiangshan Temple?" ”

After listening to Su Wuming's words, Nangong Yan nodded: "What Su Lang said is right, but what should we do next?" ”

"Naturally, I secretly investigated here."

The cold wind was even more severe, people came and went in Xiangshan Temple, pilgrims didn't know, Su Wuming and others went around outside, and then entered the Xiangshan Temple, when Su Wuming returned to the house and sat down, he suddenly remembered the sound he heard last night, what was the noise?

If you want to investigate clearly, it doesn't seem to be as easy as you imagined, because in this Xiangshan Temple, many places are where pilgrims can't go, such as where the monks live?

At noon, Jiang Ying came back, and after he briefly asked Su Wuming and the others, he told him what he had investigated.

"What those people who came here to make trouble said are true, their wife is really missing, and it is said that their lord has gone to the county government to report the case, but I don't know if Qian Sheng will come here to investigate."

Jiang Ying said this, obviously very skeptical about whether Qian Sheng would handle the case impartially, after Su Wuming heard it, he smiled lightly and said: "This is okay, that Qian Sheng is not stupid, he is afraid that we will send someone to investigate our every move, if he sees us go to Xiangshan Temple, he will definitely follow, it is not something we have to care about, the missing woman is." ”

Everyone nodded one after another, and at this time, Su Wuming asked again, "What is the woman's name?" ”

"It seems to be called Song Lian, she is the wife of Zhao Wen and Zhao Yuanwai in Qiantang County, but this Song Lian seems to be only in her twenties, she was Zhao Yuanwai's concubine before, and Zhao Yuanwai's original partner was corrected after her death."

"So, Zhao Yuanwai Zhao Wen is already very old?"

"yes, it's almost fifty."

Su Wuming heard this, smiled lightly, and said, "Okay, since that's the case, then let's wait here for the news of Qian Sheng." ”

In the afternoon, there were more pilgrims in Xiangshan Temple, the whole Xiangshan Temple was busy, and the monks in the temple hardly saw a leisure, but Su Wuming took a look, but he never saw the abbot of Xiangshan Temple.

The name of the abbot of Xiangshan Temple is Wutong, the fame in Qiantang County is very great, and the Taoist Bingran Taoist in the Yufeng Temple of Qiantang County is no different, every year they are Xiangshan Temple and Yufeng Temple, always have to compete, and this year is almost the end, so this last battle is also coming.

The abbot Wutong did not appear, is it to deal with the upcoming big competition between the two schools of Buddhism and Taoism?

Su Wuming doesn't know much about these things, but Su Wuming has heard of the content of their competition, the Tang Dynasty poetry is the best, whether it is a dignitary or a pawn, how many will do one or two, so the content of the competition is indispensable to compose poems.

And the two schools of Buddhism and Taoism have always believed in it, so there will be a debate at that time, and in addition, there may be others, but these Su Wuming is not clear, and the others are nothing more than some things that pretend to be gods and fool the people.

Half a year ago, Xiangshan Temple and Yufeng Temple had a contest, the last time was Xiangshan Temple won, so in the second half of the year, Xiangshan Temple incense is prosperous, I want to come to the end of this time, it should be related to next year's incense.

Because he was very suspicious of Xiangshan Temple and didn't see Monk Wutong, Su Wuming was slightly uneasy, so he found Monk Wuqi and asked, "I don't know where the abbot is?" ”

Monk Wuqi didn't know Su Wuming's identity, and when he heard Su Wuming ask about the abbot of Wutong, his brows trembled slightly, and then asked, "Is there something wrong with the donor looking for my abbot?" ”

"I heard that the Abbot of Wutong has boundless Buddhism, and I admire it very much, thinking that I will see the dignity of the face so that I can get a fortune for the coming year, so I ......" Su Wuming's words stopped at this point, because he felt that the words behind him did not need to be said, and he believed that the words he said were very in line with what a believer should say, because for many believers, the Abbot Wutong was like a Buddha.

After hearing Su Wuming say these words, Monk Wuqi obviously showed a smug look on his face, but soon, he put his hands together and said: "The donor is so pious, my abbot brother will definitely pray for you after knowing it, but it is very unfortunate, the abbot brother has already gone down the mountain to accumulate virtue and make a wish as early as yesterday, and I don't know when he will come back, now everything in the temple is in charge of me, if the donor really wants a colorful head, it is better to make a wish on the pillar incense in front of the Buddha." ”

After saying this, Monk Wuqi folded his hands and said goodbye, Su Wuming looked at the back of Monk Wuqi retreating, the corners of his mouth showed a slight smile, he didn't think that Monk Wutong would give up the high-quality life in the temple and go to the bottom of the mountain to accumulate virtue and make wishes, so something must have happened in this Xiangshan Temple, otherwise, as the abbot of Xiangshan Temple, how could he not show up, and let people help to speak?

The sunset is coming to an end, Su Wuming stood in front of Xiangshan Temple and frowned slightly, one afternoon, there was no news about Qian Sheng, this time he surprised Su Wuming.
