Chapter Forty-Eight: Words in Words
After a period of hardship and torment, the investigation of the case suddenly became smoother.
Of course, this is inseparable from the down-to-earth efforts of his teammates in the past few days.
At this time, Zhao Zimeng had a feeling of "the mountains and rivers are full of doubts, and the willows and flowers are bright and another village".
"Two masters, what do you want to say?" Linghu Yunfei looked at Huizheng and Weihe and the two masters.
Huizheng glanced at the Zen master for He: "For He, you can come and go." ”
"Okay, I'll tell you, if I miss something, you can add it. Captain Zhao, we would like to talk to you about Supervisor Jiecheng. ”
"Oh?" Zhao Zimeng looked at the two of them with a little surprise.
Looking at the expressions of these two old Zen masters, it seems that it is not just as simple as talking about the admonition supervisor, the admonition supervisor has become ancient. At this time, it doesn't seem to make much sense to talk about dead people.
"Yes. You also know that in the Cold Moon Temple, only Xiu Neng and Jie Cheng Supervisor have crystal beads. If the person who killed Ge Liu's two craftsmen was not Xiu Neng and Pure Water, then it could only be Supervisor Cheng and Fa Zheng. ”
"Two masters, do you remember anything?"
"It was for and remembered something. Back then, the poor monk didn't particularly care about the two masters and apprentices, but now that I think about it, there are indeed many doubts. "Zen Master Huizheng said.
"Captain Zhao, if Fa Zheng hadn't left the Cold Moon Temple, the poor monk wouldn't have thought about Supervisor Jiecheng. This commandment is dead, but Fazheng is still alive. "For the sake of the Zen master Dao.
Lin Di took out a pen and notebook from her bag and turned on the tape recorder at the same time.
"For the sake of Zen Master, you can speak slowly." Xiang Daimo said.
Wei He said: "Everyone in the temple knows that Fa is the one who came into the Cold Moon Temple by the Supervisor of Commandment. ”
"At that time, Fa Zheng was only a few months old, and after Fa Zheng entered the temple, although he was taken care of by everyone, the person who took the most care and was the most meticulous was Jiecheng."
"When I grew up, Fa Zheng and Supervisor Jiecheng were inseparable."
"As Fa Zheng grew up, the poor monk found that Fa Zheng's appearance became more and more like Supervisor Cheng Cheng." For the Tao of the Zen Master.
"Yes! In order to tell me about this more than once, after he reminded me, the poor monk also felt that Fazheng's eyebrows and eyes were indeed very similar to Commandment. "Zen Master Huizheng said.
Zhao Zimeng, Ling Hu Yunfei and Xiang Daimo exchanged glances, it was time to tell the two Zen masters Fa Zheng's life experience: "Two masters, your suspicions are right: Fa Zheng is indeed the son of Supervisor Jiecheng. ”
"Is the law really a kind of admonition supervisor?" Zen Master Huizheng was shocked.
"We just came from Zangjiazhai, and in Zangjiazhai, we learned about a situation. Fa is the admonition of the supervisor and the child of a woman. "Zhao Zimeng can't go into too much detail now.
"For peace, you really got it right. We have all been deceived by admonition. He is usually dignified, and Huizheng has always regarded him as a righteous gentleman. Zen Master Huizheng said indignantly.
"This well-dressed beast, he also deceived the abbot of Qingfeng, no wonder Puji Zen Master has always been lukewarm to the admonition! It turned out that Puji had long seen that the admonition was sincere and his heart was misleading. "Zen Master Huizheng said.
"Yes! No wonder every time he goes down the mountain, he has to take the line of Mengdong Village, Zangjia Village, and Niushou Village in Houshan. "For the sake of the Zen master Dao.
Every time he goes down the mountain, he is alone, and occasionally takes people down the mountain, but also walks separately, and he also said: "Turning the fate is a Buddhist disciple must do homework, since it is to do homework, you must do it seriously." ”
"Jiecheng also often says that only by turning fate can we know the difficulties of the people in the world."
"Captain Zhao, the woman who is messing with Jiecheng, is she from Zangjiazhai?" For and the Zen master said suddenly.
"Why would Master Weihe ask that?"
"The poor monk was picking herbs on the mountain near Zang's village, and he met Cheng Cheng several times—for he met him in almost the same place—and the poor monk thought it was strange at the time."
"For peace, you and I came to Captain Zhao, it doesn't seem that I was talking about this matter!" Zen Master Huizheng reminded Zen Master He in time, which also relieved Zhao Zimeng.
Zhao Zimeng promised Zang Mantang that he would never tell anyone about Zang Yurong's situation.
"I took things off the rails. Captain Zhao, in the Cold Moon Temple, everyone knows that Supervisor Jiecheng has been in poor health. ”
"Xiu Neng and Supervisor Jueshui also said about it. They also said that it was because he was diligent in Buddhist work that he fell ill and finally died of illness. ”
"Yes, Xiuneng and Jueshui Supervisors also told us so. We are looking for an opportunity to consult with two Zen masters, you are proficient in medical science, you take the pulse of the monks in the temple, and you should have the most say in the condition of the supervisor of Jiecheng. Zhao Zimeng said.
"It is true that Commandment Cheng is often sick. He either had an unbearable stomach pain, a cough, or a sweat in his sleep at night. Usually I always have a weak breath when I speak, and I always walk slowly, looking weak and unwinded. ”
"When did Supervisor Cheng start to have problems with his body?"
"It was before that overhaul, and after the overhaul, it got more and more powerful."
"For the sake of what he said correctly, since the overhaul, the body of the admonition has deteriorated." Zen Master Huizheng added, "But the strange thing is ......"
"Zen Master Huizheng, don't stop, keep talking."
"It stands to reason that if you are not in good health, you should rest more and recuperate more, but Cheng Cheng stares at those craftsmen all day long, and when the craftsmen work, he will keep an eye on them."
"There are many monks in the monastery, and there are some things that can be arranged for others to do. But in addition to the Fa Zheng, no one should be allowed to ask about the overhaul. ”
"Actually, Jiecheng and Fazheng don't need to stare at those craftsmen all day long, whether it is the Daxiong Treasure Palace, or the Yingxia Hall and the East and West Zen Temple, there are our people everywhere."
"We all think that those craftsmen are very serious about their work, they invite people to come, but they don't trust them, and they stare at them like thieves all day long."
"Now that I think about it, the poor monk understands why Jiecheng and Fa Zheng are staring at those craftsmen, they should be trying to find something—or have already discovered something." For the Tao of the Zen Master.
"In the second half of the overhaul, Supervisor Jiecheng and Fa Zheng spent more time in the East Zen Temple, and at that time, I was a little puzzled, why did Jiecheng and Fa Zheng stare at the two masters who were digging wells?" Huizheng Zen Master said.
The words of Zen Master Huizheng and Zen Master Weihe further confirmed Master Huairen's discovery.
"Captain Zhao, what I want to say is: Jiecheng's illness is indeed very strange."
"What's the trick?"
"Usually the poor monk gives Jiecheng the pulse medicine, and the poor monk has always been dedicated, but after Jiecheng took the medicine of the poor monk, not only did the condition not improve in the slightest, but became more and more serious."
"Abbot Qingfeng and Zen Master Puji also had stomach cramps and coughs, but after taking the medicine prepared for Weihe, they quickly recovered."
"Does Master He suspect that Jiecheng's illness is faked?"
"The poor monk didn't dare to say that the illness of the supervisor was faked. But he couldn't figure it out, he took my medicine, and his condition didn't improve, but why didn't he rest and recuperate? ”
"What's even more suspicious is that once, the abbot of Xiu Neng asked me to check the pulse of Supervisor Jiecheng, the night before, I just gave him a medicine to drink, there is a taste of medicine in the medicine, after drinking it in the mouth, the tongue coating will be red, but when I showed Jiecheng the tongue coating, the tongue coating is a normal color. This is enough to show that he didn't drink the medicine I boiled for him at all. ”
"Could it be that after drinking the medicine, Jiecheng drank water again, and the color on the tongue coating was diluted?" Zhao Zimeng said.
"It can't be." For and very sure.
"With this medicine, the color on the tongue coating will fade for at least a day. In order to make peace, every time he brought the medicine to Jiecheng to drink, he always said that he would drink it later, or he was making an excuse to take the poor monk away. ”
This situation provided by Hui Zheng, Wei and the two Zen masters is very important.
They said that the illness of the admonition was false, and the implication was to doubt the cause of the admonition's death.
Illness is fake, and the death of Supervisor Cheng can also be fake—this is what Zen Master Weihe and Huizheng mean in and out of their words.
Zhao Zimeng only felt incredible, the pool of water in Lengyue Temple was really bottomless.
"Two masters, when Jiecheng dies of illness, you should have touched the pulse!"
"It was the two of us who touched the pulse and tried the snort, and it was also the two of us who wiped his body and changed his clothes. The monks in the temple were all in front of him. At the time of the burial, everyone was there. ”
"Did you come to us to suspect that there was something wrong with the death of Jie Cheng?" Zhao Zimeng followed the words of the two and simply made the words clear.
"I didn't think anything was wrong at the time. Now that I think about it, it's a bit weird. ”
"Please remember it in as much detail as possible."
"In those days, Jiecheng was bedridden."
"Is it after Jiang Zihai's group of craftsmen are gone?"
"Yes, the spring of the second year when the overhaul began. Jiang Zihai and they left in March, and Jiecheng fell ill in April. ”
"What illness?"
"Cough - cough that doesn't stop, can't eat, only eat a little at first, and then vomit after eating."
"One evening, when we were having a meal in the room, Fa Zheng suddenly ran into the room and called the abbot Xiu Neng and the two of us, saying that his master was dying. We put down our jobs and rushed to the meditation room of the supervisor of the West Chan Temple. Huizheng, am I right? ”
"That's how it was."
"How long has he been in bed?"
"It's about half a month! The strange thing is that Jiecheng ate very little, and he didn't lose weight at all, I thought it was because of the swelling of the body, so I didn't think about it deeply. ”
"What about you when you get to the meditation room? Elaborate on the situation before the admonition is swallowed. ”
"Jie Cheng was lying on the bed, his breath was like a gossamer, his eyes were slightly closed, and his face was like paper ashes. According to the instructions of the abbot of Xiuneng, we fed a little medicine, but we vomited it all. ”
"At that time, Jie Cheng could no longer speak."
The abbot of Xiuneng sent Fazheng, Pure Water and two disciples to keep the commandments.
In the middle of the night, Fa Zheng went to the Abbot Monastery to inform the abbot of Xiuneng, and Pure Water went to the East and West Zen Monastery to inform the masters.
"When everyone rushed to the meditation room, Jiecheng had no breath or heartbeat."
"What did Jiecheng do before he became a monk?"
"This—Cold Moon Temple, no one knows."
