The monk glanced at Cheng Ran, who was quietly eating tea, without a trace, suppressed the strangeness in his heart, folded his hands and said, "Amitabha-"

Cheng Ran raised his eyebrows slightly: "Master has something to say again?" ”

"......" The monk said without changing his face: "If there is such a bad omen in the moat, it must be a warning from the gods, and it is necessary to take countermeasures in time." The poor monk is willing to return to the Great Yongchang Temple, take the monks in the temple to the place where the accident occurred, and chant sutras to transcend the dead - as for how to resolve such a great omen, we still need to wait until the master leaves the palace to try to deal with it. ”

When the people heard this, they praised it one after another.

"Sure enough, it's a disciple of the great master......"

"With the presence of a great master, this omen will definitely be resolved!"

"I don't want to thank this master for his grace......," reminded the old man kneeling beside the woman.

Things were going so fast that the woman couldn't react a little bit.

She was originally here to ask for a truth and explanation, how could she ...... Is this going to be overborn?

Listening to the echoes and praises of the people behind her, the woman, who had a feeling that her husband's life and death were not yet clear, was about to be forcibly overtaken.

"The body has not been recovered yet, and the master mentioned the transcendence, which is a bit of a hurry." Cheng Ran put down the teacup and said.

The monk lowered his eyes and said, "The poor monk is here first, waiting for news." ”

"Why does Master seem to be so sure that people are dead?" Cheng Ran asked strangely.

"The poor monk didn't dare to say this, but now under the bad omen, this benefactor is probably more than lucky."

He knew very well whether the man was dead or alive.

And his affirmation at this time will eventually become the prophecy of the prophecy come true, and it can also make his previous assertion that the ignorant man intended to slander the national teacher and thus anger the gods more plausible.

"It is said that the family is compassionate and cautious in words and deeds, and Master seems to be a little unusual."

Listening to Cheng Ran's unclear words, the monk who was strategizing didn't mind.

It is said that this Master Cheng is very good at figuring out people's hearts when trying the case, and his words are tricked, so he is not fooled.

And what should be said is almost done, Cheng Ran looked at the woman and said, "It just so happened that last night my official rescued a fisherman, you might as well see if it's your husband first." ”

The woman was stunned.

Cheng Ran had already instructed the officials to go to the backyard to bring people up.

Not long after, a middle-aged man with a wound cloth on his arm and a dark complexion appeared in everyone's sight.

"Daddy kid...... You're not dead! ”

The woman threw herself forward and hugged the man and wept bitterly.

"I'm fine...... the man held the man steady and reminded in a low voice, "What kind of ...... is this in the court?"

The woman nodded with tears in her smile, hurriedly wiped away her tears with her sleeve, and knelt down to kowtow to Cheng Ran.

"Thank you for saving your life!"

This sudden turn of events caused the onlookers to explode.

"Didn't you say you were eaten by the moat...... How to live again! ”

"This ......"

There were also people with clear minds and sharpened minds, looking at the monks in the hall.

The monk looked very sure that the fisherman was dead......

Hey, I thought there was some kind of prophetic ability!

The monk tried his best to maintain the calm on his face and said, "Amitabha, God has the virtue of a good life...... It's a blessing. ”

Cheng Ran ignored him, and only said to the fisherman, "Tell me what happened last night." ”

Last night, along with His Highness's secret letter, there was also the fisherman who was injured and drowning unconscious.

At first, he didn't understand His Highness's true intentions, until the monk said something that "angered the gods", and the ensuing statement that "the moat eats people"-

He finally realized that he was waiting here for the one who was holding this link!

But...... Your Highness is too prescient, isn't he?

"Last night I saw that it was raining heavily, so I didn't go into the water, but rested in the cabin...... But when I heard a carriage coming to the bank of the river in the rain, I didn't know what it was doing, so I wanted to go up and take a look, but as soon as I got out of the boat, a man came towards me, with a sword in his hand! ”

Speaking of the frightening scene last night, the fisherman still trembled: "I was stabbed in the right arm...... That man was so strong that he threw me into the river! At that time, the wind and rain were blowing, the river was very fast, and I was injured again, and I was quickly washed away...... Fortunately, an official rescued me and brought me back to the Yamen for treatment! ”

As for why the person who rescued him was also dressed in black, he was still sure that it was an official errand, and there was no other reason - it was the other party who told him personally.

When the onlookers heard this, there was already an uproar.

Co-authoring 'cannibalism' is not a moat at all, but a person?!

At this time, the young man of Su faced the people and said loudly: "Listen, everyone, it turns out that the moat eats people is fake, so it is true to cover up the truth!" As for who did it, I believe you should already have the answer in your minds, right?

After all, it was only the demon monk who saw that I had not deceived the people yesterday like those who had been killed in vain by witchcraft, so he guessed that someone must have solved his magic on me, and was worried that I would confess him, so he came up with a rumor of cannibalism in the moat, trying to save his reputation! For the sake of one's own selfishness, they will plunder innocent people's lives at will, which is simply inferior to beasts! ”

When the son of the Su family spoke, his face was full of indignation, and he ran back and forth, accompanied by body movements such as shaking with his hands, and every look seemed to be strongly communicating and interacting with the people.

If his performance at the beginning of the drumming was a little flawed, then now he thinks he has devoted himself to this real performance.

Ah Li in the crowd nodded in satisfaction.

Not bad.

It's not in vain that she taught the trick last night until her mouth was dry.

"Now that it's over, just ask—"

When Su Gongzi, who felt more and more, wanted to continue, he was interrupted by the monk's voice.

"If there is no evidence, please donor Hugh to talk nonsense and turn black and white upside down." The monk's tone was slightly cold: "Even if this fisherman is harmed by people, what does it have to do with my master?" Moreover, the presence of blood on the side of the moat is also one of the bad omens. What's more, the reddening of the river is an unprecedented thing, which can already be seen in the wrath of the gods...... If the benefactor is so stubborn and unrepentant, is he not afraid of being punished by God? ”

"If it is a strange thing, how can it be that it must be the wrath of the gods? You say it's the handiwork of the gods, I say it's the witchcraft of the national teacher—why are you right? And I'm talking about slander? Who can prove it? ”

Su Gongzi was right, and asked those people: "Everyone tastes the products, is this the truth?" ”

Isn't it just talking about crooked reasoning and being hard-mouthed, this is what he is good at in his daily life, and it is easy to come by without being taught.

"You-"

The monk could barely bear it anymore, and quietly pulled out the slender silver needle hidden in his sleeve.
