Chapter 40: The Murderer of Yunlin Temple

The three of them walked to the front of the palace, and the elder captain in brocade took out a wooden plaque from his waist, shook it slightly towards the guards guarding the door, and said in a deep voice: "I took this person to the Qinglongwei lobby for questioning, this person has been searched, and there is no sharp blade or murder weapon on his body."

Several guards guarding the door glanced at each other, and one of the guards led by him smiled and said: "Since Brother Li Yang has searched his body, there will definitely be no difference, we will not search him, please come in!" With that, he made a way and let the three of them in.

Walk through the dark and dull doorway, in front of you is a wide road, almost seventeen or eighteen meters wide, all paved with bluestone, on both sides are tall courtyard walls, look far away, there is a towering city in front of the city is located in front, the city gate hole is written on the word "Miyagi", the gate is open, there are more than 20 guards standing in front of the door.

Oh! Unexpectedly, there was a city in the city, and the Great Zhou Emperor would consider it for his own safety. Lin Yi thought in his heart. Following behind Li Yang, walked hundreds of steps, only to see the left side of the courtyard wall, there is a gate open, the house is deep inside, the environment is very elegant, Li Yang led him into it, the pedestrians who come and go in the house are all wearing green clothes Captain in brocade, these people are embroidered with a red python dragon on their chest uniforms, teeth and claws, very terrifying.

"Brother Li is good!" The captain of the brocade clothes greeted Li Yang with a smile, and Li Yang also returned the salute with a smile, and took Lin Yi to stand outside the door of a very large living room.

"You wait here until I go and say something!" After Li Yang finished instructing Lin Yi, he walked in, and after a while, he walked out again and said, "Our deputy head of the internal guard, Pan Guodong, please let you in." He led Lin Yi into the hall.

In the hall sat a strong man in his forties, with a very thick beard, and a pair of eyes that were wide open, revealing a terrifying light.

Li Yang ordered: "This is our Chief Pan, why don't you hurry up and kneel down and salute." ”

Kneel down? Lao Tzu is so big, in addition to kneeling his elders and ancestors, he has never bowed to others, my knees are golden, even if the emperor Lao Tzu comes, I don't want to bend him casually! Thinking of this, Lin Yi didn't kneel, but pretended to be stupid, and said, "Are you talking about this uncle sitting on it?" Wow! This uncle looks like the statue of the Bodhidharma Patriarch I saw when I was a monk in Baolin Temple, and there is a Buddha statue on his face. As he spoke, he looked at Pan Guodong with his eyes stunned, as if he was confirming his opinion.

Pan Guodong is superstitious about Buddhism, and when he heard Lin Yi say that he had a Buddha statue, he was a little happy in his heart, and he was even happier when he heard Lin Yi praise him for being thick and fine, and he was a person who was beautiful inside. waved his hand and said with a smile: "No need to kneel!" This young man speaks very well. He pointed to a seat below and said, "Sit down and talk!" ”

Lin Yi was also not polite, Da Ra walked over and sat down. Pan Guodong looked at Lin Yi with his eyes for a while, and asked with a smile: "What is your name and where do you live?" Why, you used to be a monk? Why don't you let the monk do it, but you have to return it to the vulgar. ”

Lin Yi sorted out the rules and replied in turn: "Lord Yu, the villain's name is Lin Yi, he was originally a monk in the Xiaolin Temple in the lower courtyard of Baolin Temple, and because the dust relationship has not been broken, he obeys the order of Master Yuanjue, the ancestor, and returns to the vulgar!" ”

Pan Guodong nodded, this Great Zhou Dynasty can't stand the hardships of the temple, and there are many monks who are lay every day, Lin Yi is just a young man, his Zen heart is undecided, and it is reasonable to return to the world. He no longer asked him about his personal situation, and asked straight to the point: "You said that you have a confidential report, what news have you heard, you have to say it in this Qinglongwei lobby." ”

Lin Yi settled down, so he told him how he went to work in Yang Cheng's bookstore after he arrived in the capital, how he was framed, how he fell for Zhu'er's beauty scheme, and when he eloped with her at night, he was almost killed by her.

Pan Guodong listened very carefully, when he heard that Bai Chengyong was the master of the Qian Hall, his face was already solemn, and two joyful lights radiated from his eyes, when he heard the Lotus Sutra, he couldn't help it, jumped out of the chair, walked in front of Lin Yi, grabbed his arm, and asked sharply: "What you said is true?" ”

Lin Yi smiled bitterly: "I was afraid that they would kill people and kill me, and then find me trouble, so I came to your Qinglongwei to denounce it, and Xiaomin is willing to guarantee it with the head of the item, every sentence is true, and there is no half-truth." ”

Pan Guodong asked again: "Which Bai Chengyong is where is now?" ”

Lin Yi said: "He is now hiding in the Yunlin Temple in the south of the city and becoming a monk!" ”

Pan Guodong laughed unconsciously, gritted his teeth and said: "Qian Shicheng, you are dead, I can't imagine that you are really living under our noses, haha!" This time you fly into the sky. In his eyes, a ruthless light appeared, and Li Yang said: "Guard Li, you immediately recruit people, this little brother will lead the way, and arrest Qian Shicheng with me, as long as he catches him, it will be a great achievement, and the emperor will definitely reward us." ”

Li Yang's face was happy, and he bowed down and said, "Yes, my lord!" He turned around and went out to gather men.

At that moment, Pan Guodong recruited more than 100 people, and the soldiers were divided into two routes, one led by Li Yang, to arrest Yang Cheng, Zhu'er and others. On the other hand, he personally led the way to Yunlin Temple.

Yunlin Temple is located in the south of the city, the temple is not big or small, and there are dozens of monks. But the incense is still quite prosperous, and it is very famous among the local people. Pan Guodong rushed to the outside of the temple and ordered more than 50 people to guard outside, and he himself led people into the temple like a vicious general.

"Qinglongwei handles the case, no one is allowed to resist, and violators will be killed." The captains in brocade clothes shouted loudly as they rushed straight out of the abbot.

The abbot of Yunlin Temple, a middle-aged monk in his forties, saw Pan Guodong leading people to break in, and hurriedly went out of the house to greet him: "My lord, I don't know why I disturbed this temple?" ”

Pan Guodong said loudly: "We are here to capture Bai Chengyong." He pointed at Lin Yi with his hand, and said: "According to this brother's report, Bai Chengyong is the former Maitreya Sect Qilin Hall Master Qian Shicheng, who killed someone in the City God Temple yesterday and hid in your temple, you quickly hand him over!" Otherwise, don't blame the law for being merciless. The tone was very harsh.

The middle-aged monk wiped a trace of panic on his face, but then calmed down, clasped his palms together, and said with a Buddha horn: "Amitabha, the poor monk doesn't know what the adults say, and our Yunlin Temple has never had any Bai Chengyong coming!" As soon as the words fell, a scream was heard, and then someone shouted: "Chase quickly, the culprit escaped over the wall and outside the temple." ”

Pan Guodong's complexion changed drastically, and with a brush, he pulled out the saber under his ribs, and shouted: "Capture this monk and the other monks in the temple, and you will come with me." With that, he called more than a dozen Jinyi lieutenants and chased them in the direction of the voice.

The middle-aged monk's face turned pale, stretched out his hands, and made a restrained appearance. Two lieutenants walked by, holding shackles in their hands, and were about to put them on, when the middle-aged monk suddenly punched a brocade-clothed lieutenant in the chest, pulled out the saber on his waist, snorted, cut over another lieutenant, and fled in the other direction.

The guards were so shocked that they drew their swords and chased after him with a shout, and in an instant they were gone.

Damn it? What a fierce bandit! Lin Yi looked at the brocade-clothed lieutenant who was killed on the ground, his heart trembled, and his legs were a little weak. Turning his head to look around, there was no more Captain Jinyi beside him. At this moment, a person suddenly came out of the abbot, holding a single knife and carrying a burden on his shoulder, and took a look at Lin Yi, who is not Bai Chengyong? Lin Yi was suddenly frightened, his whole body was cold, and he didn't even know how to turn around and run away!
