Chapter 5 Confession
[The book continues from the above, and the last book said that the old thief relied on his rich experience to see that the coffin and the tomb had many clues, which was very abnormal, so he felt uneasy, and felt that it was advisable to be in a hurry at this time, and he had to take the silver nail that could be exchanged for money and leave the Shizhai Mountain in the land of right and wrong. And the next day, the abbot's greeting post was also delivered to the small courtyard of the Mu family as scheduled. Mu Qingming, who returned home after work, saw the post, although it was not clear why the famous abbot of Tanhua Temple suddenly came to visit, but Mu Qingming still felt that since he was a guest, he should greet him with a smile. After drawing out the abbot of Yingkong to come to the door, and Mu Qingming, who was not aware of the evil qi in his body, finally let go of his prejudices and suspicions, and planned to confess to Mu Qingming. 】
After nightfall, the sky over Kunming City is still covered with dark clouds, tightly covering the moonlight and stars. The rain that kept falling didn't stop, and it was still so dense.
The air is filled with dampness and cold. The damp cold made the night breeze harsh and unpleasant.
At this time, it is the rainy season in Kunming, and it is normal for this rainstorm to continue. Several rivers inside and outside the city began to rise again, even Dianchi Lake.
Tanhua Temple is no longer quiet, and it is full of water under the wind and rain. Those exquisite Buddhist halls are warped, and the eaves of the exquisite pavilions and pavilions among the fragrant herbs and trees are dripping constantly. When the water splashes on the ground, there is a continuous crackling sound.
The abbot of Yingkong took out a clean and tidy robe from the suitcase and changed it, and changed a string of polished Buddha beads to hang around his neck, showing a faint satisfaction.
Even though they are pure monks with six roots, there are also people who rely on clothes to pretend to be Buddhas and rely on gold. The visit must also be decent, otherwise it will be a loss of face for the Buddha. In the eyes of the monks, this is also a sin.
Under the dim candlelight, Yingzheng, who was beside the abbot with his hands folded, listened to the increasingly urgent sound of wind and rain outside the house, and asked thoughtfully: "Senior brother, you see that the wind and rain are very urgent tonight, do you want to visit another day?" ”。
"Senior brother, it is not only the principle of the husband to be difficult to chase after the horse, but also the same is true for our monks. Since the prayer post says to visit tonight, you can't break your promise. He turned around and walked to the door, went to get the hat hanging on the wall, and the abbot of Yingkong, who was wearing it on his head, also folded his hands together, and said unhurriedly: "Moreover, I also want to find out who the murderer is quickly." ”。
Yingzheng, who had already gone to fetch two oil-paper umbrellas and was ready to go down the mountain with the abbot of Yingkong, suddenly became a little curious, so he asked thoughtfully: "Senior brother, if the murderer is really not Mu Qingming, what are you going to do?" ”。
The abbot of Yingkong was suddenly stunned by his sudden questioning.
The strong wind outside the house rushed into the meditation room, blowing the wooden windows that had not yet been closed to the left and right.
He pondered in silence for a long time before he said lightly: "Then maybe we can ask Young Master Mu for help us investigate the murderer thoroughly." ”......
In Shala Alley, Mu Qingming, who was full of food and drink, sat in the main house of the Mu family's small courtyard, listening to the sound of wind and rain outside the house, picking his teeth leisurely with a toothpick, and his face was full of comfort.
In the middle of the brazier, which had been set up, the pitch-black charcoal was licked by the flames, and only a layer of dark red glow was left that flickered and flickered.
The heat rising from the flames constantly dispelled the chill in the room.
Help Miaoyu and Miaole clean up the dishes and chopsticks, walked to Mu Qingming and stood still, and said lightly: "Young master, then I'll go to Uncle Tiehua's side." ”。
Mu Qingming nodded and advised, "Be careful." ”。
"Got it." The wonderful pen answered, and the figure disappeared in front of everyone in a flash.
Na Ah Hong immediately moved his chair and sat down next to Mu Qingming, his eyes rolled around, and he asked Mu Qingming curiously: "Master, where is my Uncle Miaobi going?" Did you go to that fishing village with Uncle Tie Hua to change drums? ”。
Mu Qingming smiled without saying a word, put down the toothpick and lifted the teapot handed by Mo Han, took a sip before nodding, but said to Ah Hong: "Use more of your mind on cultivation, if you continue like this, your junior sister will soon surpass you." ”。
It's just Mu Qingming's personality that makes him speak without being sharp, and his tone is not hurried or slow, and he is plain. Even though Kyaukyun already has a tendency to vaguely surpass Ah Hong's cultivation, and Ah Hong has indeed been inert in his cultivation recently, Mu Qingming did not blame him too much.
Ah Hong smiled when he heard this, only a trace of embarrassment appeared on his face, and then he regained his calm.
But it is also a drum that does not need to be beaten with a hammer, although Ah Hong seems to be so indifferent, he still keeps Mu Qingming's words in mind.
He knew what he had to do, and it was only occasional inertia.
The main room was a lot quieter, and the cold spring was already asleep, so he was only willing to sleep in the bed on such a cold night. And Kyaukyun has already gone back to the room with Miaoyu to do evening class.
There are only Miaole who doesn't talk much, and Ah Hong, who doesn't say a word and uses tongs to pluck the brazier charcoal to pass the time, as well as Mu Qingming and his wife, and Miaotian, who is easy to be silent when he is full of food and drink.
In the silence, the fire pit in the brazier crackled under Ah Hong's boring play, bursting with a little spark, and the evening breeze blowing into the house swirled and rose, and gradually dimmed and slowly fell.
They were silent for this, and I don't know how long it took before Mu Qingming suddenly spoke, breaking the silence: "It's here." ”。 Before he could speak, he closed the courtyard door, and there was a light but not urgent knock on the door under the wind and rain.
Everyone in the house knew that what Mu Qingming said was referring to the abbot of Tanhua Temple on the prayer post in his hand. So Miao Tian stood up silently, walked out of the house slowly, and walked towards the gate of the courtyard.
The cunning snow leopard, which was sleeping soundly in the upside-down room, had already done it, standing behind the gate, and when it was staring at the gate with vigilant eyes, it let out a low roar from its mouth.
Outside the door was not its familiar smell, and the snow leopard was naturally alert.
And Miao Tian walked to the back of the door and drove the cunning snow leopard back to the inverted seat room before opening the door. As soon as the door was opened, Miaotian saw two monks standing outside the door, both of them with kind eyebrows, so without waiting for them to speak, he said, "The two are the masters of Tanhua Temple, right?" ”。
Standing outside the door was the abbot of Yingkong and his junior brother Yingzheng, and when they all turned their heads at the moment, they faced the abbot of Yingkong who was scrutinized by Miaotian, and clasped their hands together and said: "It is the poor monk." ”。
"My young master has been waiting for a long time." Miao Tian turned sideways at the moment, made a gesture of please, and said, "The two of you are please." ”。
As he spoke, he secretly sensed the two strangers, and after confirming that the other party only had Buddha qi in his body, and there were no evil thoughts and evil qi, he relaxed his vigilance a little.
The abbot of Yingkong and Yingzheng walked forward slowly, towards this Shala Alley, which is located in the yin qi and the ghost qi is diffused, but it is fresh under the rainy night today, and the fragrance of plants and trees is diffused, but there is no evil spirit and gloomy small courtyard.
Miao Tian closed the courtyard door and led them down the corridor towards the main house.
As soon as I entered the house, I saw the gentle and elegant Mu Qingming, who was smiling and greeting him. The abbot of Yingkong also immediately squinted and smiled, and at the same time folded his hands together, and when he chanted the Buddha's name, he looked around Mu Qingming and them.
This abbot of Yingkong is worthy of being a high-ranking monk, and he has already opened a pair of Dharma eyes. Looking around, not only can I see that the bodies of the people in front of me are really not without evil qi, but I can also see their true bodies from the shadows under Mo Han and Ah Hong's feet.
In his eyes, at Mo Han's feet was a fox with three huge tails. And Ah Hong is a dryad with lush vegetation and rattans.
Although he was surprised at the moment, why the two monsters stayed with Mu Qingming, after turning his gaze back to Mu Qingming, he saw something that secretly surprised him even more.
The shadow under Mu Qingming's feet is the same as a human form, but the five elements of yin and yang in this person's body are all lacking, but they are distinct, and as his junior brother Yingzheng said, they are mutually reinforcing and complementary.
"Master, please be seated." Mu Qingming was the first to speak, and after inviting the two monks to sit down, he said to Miaole: "Serve tea." ”。
Miao Le went away in response, and when the abbot sat down, he raised his head and stroked his long beard under his chin, chanted the Buddha's horn again, raised his eyes to look at Mu Qingming again, and looked him up and down for a while.
His magic eyes saw that there were no traces of washed blood on Mu Qingming's body. It was not stained with any breath of his junior brother and leper monk, as well as the Buddha's light and Buddha's energy.
Obviously, this Young Master Mu was not the real murderer who killed his junior brother, the leper monk. Even the body of his junior brother, the leper head monk, did not have any contact with Mu Qingming.
Mu Qingming also saw the strong Buddha aura contained in the eyes of the abbot of Yingkong at a glance, and knew that it was the eye of the law, but he didn't say anything, but he didn't ask in a hurry: "Tanhua Temple is a century-old ancient temple, and the master is a high-ranking monk, and Qingming has already heard of it." It's just that I'm just an unknown junior, and I don't know why, I actually came to visit the master in person. ”。
Listening to his question, Abbot Yingkong secretly thought to himself in his heart: Look at this young master Mu is indeed not a crooked way, although he and his family have a very unique internal qi, can have yin and yang in the chest, and the dantian has five elements, but he is not a bad person, nor is he the real murderer of my junior brother, you might as well confess it to him.
"Young Master Mu is modest, since you have found my junior brother, the leper monk in the flower field behind the Zen Academy, and asked for his nine night cries, how can you be a nameless junior." Following the reflection of the abbot of Yingkong, he didn't say a word from the moment he entered the door. And the abbot of Yingkong, who has not let go, is still with his hands folded, the smile on his face has not diminished, and he is still kind, and he still said unhurriedly: "Presumably Young Master Mu also thought of it, Lao Qu's trip is not for anything else, it is for my junior brother." ”。
As soon as these words came out, although Mu Qingming and Mo Han's faces were calm, they all thought secretly: "Sure enough, I still came for the leper monk." ”。
"Now that the master has come to the door, just say it bluntly, and there is no need to worry about it." But Mu Qingming then saw it again, and a faint sadness and sadness appeared in the eyes of the abbot of Yingkong, and after a flash, he asked urgently: "Is it the leper monk master?" ”。
The coals in the brazier dispel the cold, but they can't dispel the gloomy sadness of the abbot in the sky.
"It all started three months ago." The abbot of Yingkong did not let Mu Qingming wait too long in silence, so he confessed to Mu Qingming: "One night after you asked my junior brother to take away the nine night cries, an evil man quietly sneaked into the flower field where my junior brother was. ”。
