Chapter 96: Blowing up the pot
Xia Wenjin said: "Is Shi'an Temple famous? ”
Muramasa: "Of course, the whole prefecture is famous. It is said that in the entire Yunfeng County, there are few temples that can be compared with Shi'an Temple. ”
Huangfu Jingchen said: "I have heard that all the monasteries in Southern Xia, as long as there is a Bodhi Temple master who has placed an order and been recognized, will be the Bodhi Lower Courtyard in the future, and it is a branch of the royal temple." ”
Xia Wenjin said with a smile: "Didn't the senior monk they looked for say that he was the master of Bodhi Temple?" She was also wondering, did the first line of the poem have anything to do with her name?
Huangfu Jingchen thought for a while and said, "Let's go to Shi'an Temple tomorrow!" ”
Muramasa was curious: "You don't go to negotiate with the river god?" ”
Huangfu Jingchen said in a soft tone, "The high monk who said that the river god married his wife asked us to go to Shi'an Temple to find him. ”
"Huh? This, this, this...... When did you say that? "Didn't they all see the monk?
Xia Wenjin saw that Muramasa was very anxious, and explained: "That poem, the penultimate word is connected, it is 'Tianshenhe Shi'an Temple looks at me'. Since the monk left a message, we have to go and see it. ”
I heard that it was a senior monk who left a message, but Muramasa didn't dare to say anything, so he agreed.
That night, nothing happened.
However, early the next morning, the village of Kawaguchi still exploded.
Early the next morning, Zhang Butcher rushed to the village house with red eyes and a knife, and a big man cried bitterly.
Muramasa frowned and said, "What the hell is going on?" ”
Zhang Butcher grinned and cried, his daughter Zhang Erzhu disappeared last night.
Someone next to him said: "Zhang Facai, I told you yesterday to send Erzhu here, but you refused." There are officials guarding here, and the people and girls who are sent here are very safe. You have to listen, now that your daughter is gone, where can you find this? ”
Hearing the commotion, Huangfu Jingchen and Xia Wenjin came out and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
The villagers talked about the disappearance of Zhang's butcher's daughter.
Huangfu Jingchen looked at Zhang Tuhu: "What's the situation?" ”
"Tell me what's going on?"
Zhang Butcher wiped his tears and said, "Yesterday I took a pig-killing knife and kept guarding the door of Zhu'er, and I didn't sleep all night." In the morning, when I saw that it was dawn, I was also relieved and was about to wake up Zhu'er, but no one answered, and when I opened the door, Zhu'er's room was empty. ”
As he spoke, his eyes blood-red, panicked, and sad.
Huangfu Jingchen said: "Take us to your house to see!" ”
Muramasa said: "Lord Shangcha, are those girls sent home, or continue to be here?" ”
Huangfu Jingchen turned his head and said, "Send it home first, and then send it over in the evening!" ”
Zhang Butcher saw that those girls were really fine, thinking of his missing daughter, he couldn't help but feel sad, and led the emperor Jingchen Xia Wenjin to his house, and the villagers who had good things also followed, and of course the village was also going to go.
Zhang's butcher's house is in the north of the village, with three earthen houses, and Hekou Village are all houses built along the river, which are scattered.
When I went to his house, his wife had already cried and fainted, and the youngest son was also crying, and the family was in chaos.
Xia Wenjin went to Zhang Erzhu's room under the fingers of Zhang Tuhu, the quilt in the room was scattered, but it was not messy, and it was obviously abducted in his sleep.
According to Zhang, he stayed outside the room all night, and his wife and her young son lived next door, and they didn't hear any sound.
Xia Wenjin walked into the room and inspected it carefully. From time to time, he asked the butcher and the butcher's wife some questions.
The villagers whispered: "The river god is a god, of course he comes and goes without a trace, where will I hear any sound?" ”
"Zhang Butcher is usually a bully, even ghosts are afraid of him, he personally guards the door, people can still be seen, where can people do this, it seems that it is really done by the gods."
"Yes, yes, Wang's is really a broom spirit, sink her into the river!"
"Let's go, let's go together!"
"With an official here, I'm afraid it's not easy to do!"
"The official is here, hasn't the person been captured by the river god?"
"Let's go, let's go to Wang Dazhu's house."
……
The group of villagers became louder and louder, and when they turned around and were about to leave, Huangfu Jingchen shouted: "Stop! ”
In the end, everyone was still afraid of the identity of the "official errand", and they stood up one after another, but their eyes were all disagreeing, obviously, if they couldn't find anything, they would go to sink Wang Yue'e into the river and give it to the river god.
Xia Wenjin walked out of the room, stepped forward slowly, looked at the villagers with different faces, and said slowly: "Do you think this is really the work of the river god!" ”
"Of course it's the river god, can this be fake? Don't you see, the doors are closed, Zhang Facai is still guarding the door, where do people go from? How could it suddenly disappear? ”
"The door didn't move, but the window did."
"Windows?" The villagers were a little surprised, wasn't the window closed?
Xia Wenjin's gaze swept over them: "If it were you, would you not bolt the window when you sleep at night?" ”
The villagers thought about it, it was absolutely impossible, there were several missing girls in the village, everyone had heard about it, and they knew that the Wang family went back to the village yesterday to make trouble, and it was likely that something would happen at night, who didn't close the doors and windows?
The lady of the Zhang family also said: "Bolted, I bolted." ”
Some villagers said unconvinced: "Isn't it true that the river god has great powers?" Otherwise, how can you get open if you bolt it from the inside? ”
"Of course, ordinary people can't get it, but it's not completely impossible to open it." Xia Wenjin asked rhetorically: "You also said that the river god has great powers, if it is really the river god, then the window latch can come and go without a trace, why do you want to open the window latch?" This shows that it is not the river god who does it, but the human. ”
"Impossible, right?"
Even Muramasa said, "This ...... How is this possible? Isn't Zhang Facai just outside the door? How come you don't hear a sound at all? ”
Huangfu Jingchen's voice was cold and penetrating: "When you came in, didn't you smell a trace of extremely faint aroma? ”
The crowd shook their heads.
Someone also said, "Where is the aroma?" Not at all! ”
Xia Wenjin unexpectedly glanced at Huangfu Jingchen, her nose was very smart, and she smelled it when she entered the hospital, so she went to search the room carefully, but she didn't expect Huangfu Jingchen to smell it too.
Huangfu Jingchen said: "This shows that there is a drug in the house, and this drug only has a very faint smell, and it has been a night for a long time, so it is difficult to detect." ”
Xia Wenjin chuckled: "Does the river god still need to use ecstasy?" ”
The villagers will be suspicious and look at each other.
In the end, the village is the village leader, and immediately grasped the point: "Since it is man-made, our village has always been guarded, doesn't it mean that the people in the village did it?" As he spoke, he swept his gaze to the villagers present, and there was already a bit of fierceness in his eyes.
