In the fragment where they stayed, the others had already walked a long way.

Shen Lingjun stuffed the last piece of pastry in the box into Su Musha's mouth, and the afterglow swept right behind Zhao Kuo and them, not too far away, and said with a smile: "Zhao Zhutou's kung fu is good." ”

With her and Su Musha's light skills, it is difficult for ordinary people to keep up.

Zhao Kuo was hurrying with his head bored, and suddenly heard Shen Lingjun praising him, he was stunned for a moment, and then said, "My lord has won the prize." ”

"How did Lanruo Temple build so high?" Shen Lingjun looked up and saw that there was still more than half of the mountain road: "Usually it's not very convenient for pilgrims to go up." ”

After Shen Lingjun paused, Zhao Kuo had already caught up and explained: "When Zen Master Puhui passed by here, he saw a golden light shining on the mountain, and he felt that it was the will of the Buddha, so he went to the world for ten years to change his fate in exchange for a Lanruo Temple. Look, my lord, Lanruo Temple faces cliffs on three sides, and there is only this one road leading to the temple. ”

Shen Lingjun raised his eyes and looked into the distance, and saw that the mountain next to him was really steep, only where Lanruo Temple was located, a strange peak was raised.

Shen Changfeng happened to hear it when he passed by, and praised: "Puhui Zen Master is really a person with great wisdom, and this is indeed a treasure land of feng shui." ”

Tang Tang stuck out his tongue: "If you die, it's not a treasure of feng shui." ”

Su Musha asked Zhao Kuo: "How is the temple incense?" ”

Several people were side by side, Zhao Kuo followed behind, and said: "After the completion of Lanruo Temple, due to its partial location, it is deserted all year round, and there is not much incense. Later, one year, a woman was injured in the mountains, and Master Puhui happened to pass by and brought her back for treatment, and this woman was pregnant with Liujia at the time, and was about to give birth, so Master Puhui did not think much about it, and let the woman give birth directly in the temple. Later, someone asked him why he accepted it, and Master Puhui only said one sentence. ”

"What?"

Zhao Kuo smiled and said, "Puhui Zen Master said: All living beings rejoice, and the Buddha rejoices. ”

Shen Lingjun praised: "It is not a loss for a generation of Zen masters. ”

Zhao Kuo nodded: "Because of this incident, the fame of Lanruo Temple spread, and many pilgrims come to burn incense on the first and fifteenth days of the new year. ”

"Are there many people on weekdays?" Shen Lingjun asked.

Zhao Kuo shook his head: "It's an ordinary temple, and no one goes to it on weekdays, let alone Lanruo Temple." ”

Su Musha said: "Why did Ji Hongfei suddenly go to Lanruo Temple? ”

The monk who reported the case said that Ji Hongfei told the current abbot that he had been disturbed by the ancestors of the Ji family in his dreams recently, and wanted to pray for the ancestors so that the monks in the temple could recite the Sutra of Death for a full month. Unexpectedly, it was only two days before something happened. Zhao Kuo replied.

Next, everyone didn't have any extra words, quickened their pace, and arrived at the gate of the temple in no time.

The Lanruo Temple in front of you is hidden under several vigorous ginkgo trees, which is quiet and solemn. The surrounding ancient trees are towering, the pines and cypresses are forested, the beautiful bamboos are lush, and the grass is green.

There was a small novice waiting at the door, welcoming a few people in. The courtyard inside is relatively small, and a huge Bodhi tree stands tall and green.

Ji Hongfei's body was placed in front of a large vat in front of the Buddhist hall, and he saw it as soon as he entered.

Shen Lingjun and the others walked over, and Su Musha felt that the corpse was nothing to look at, so he stayed in place to enjoy the demeanor of the Bodhi tree.

The current abbot of the temple, Guangwu, hurried over with a few disciples, clasped his hands together, bowed slightly, and chanted the Buddha's name in his mouth: "Amitabha." ”

Zhao Kuo spread it with one hand, pointed to Shen Lingjun, and said to Guangwu: "This is Lord Shen of Dali Temple." ”

Guangwu bowed to Shen Lingjun again: "Lord Shen." ”

Shen Lingjun walked over to look at the corpse: "Has the corpse moved?" ”

Guangwu didn't know this, and said to a disciple behind him, "Dao Yuan, you tell Lord Shen what happened." ”

Dogen clasped his palms together and bowed: "Yes." ”

Then he turned to Shen Lingjun and said: "Early in the morning, when Yanhai came back from carrying water and was about to pour it into the vat, he found that there was a person lying on his stomach in the vat, and he pulled the person out, only to find out that it was the benefactor, and he had been angry for a long time. Later, several of them worked together to put the body on the ground, and I asked Yanhai to go down the mountain to report to the official, and the others were not moved. ”

Shen Lingjun squatted next to Ji Hongfei's corpse, and saw that his whole body was swollen, his skin was white, and his lips were purple, obviously drowning.

Tang Tang shook his hand behind his back: "Can this vat drown people?" ”

Others also thought it was incredible, how could an adult not fall into a vat and drown. And it is impossible to choose a vat to commit suicide so aggrieved, it is better to jump into the river directly.

Shen Changfeng said: "Could it be that someone else forced it to press?" ”

Zhao Kuo opened the collar of the deceased with the back of the knife, and there was no trace, and frowned: "No." ”

Shen Lingjun asked Daoyuan: "Where does Ji Hongfei live?" ”

Dogen clasped his hands together and said, "It's in the Zen courtyard at the back." ”

"Take me to see it." Then he said to Zhao Kuo: "You stay here and wait for Qingzhi to come and check the corpse." ”

Zhao Kuo nodded: "Yes." ”

Tang Tang has never visited the temple and is quite curious, wandering around.

Shen Changfeng was afraid that she would destroy other people's things, so he followed her step by step.

Su Musha was finally reluctant to leave the Bodhi Tree and followed Dao Yuan and Shen Lingjun to the back.

Because the temple is not large, the row of houses behind the Buddha hall is the monk's house, and there are five or six rooms left next to it for some pilgrims to stay overnight.

Ji Hongfei's room was in the first room in the east, and Shen Lingjun pushed the door in. The inside is simple, except for a table, chair, bed and a cabinet, there is no more furnishings.

Shen Lingjun rummaged through the contents of the cabinet, but it was just a few changes of clothes, and a bag of silver was pressed under the clothes without moving. The bedding was spread out flat, and there were no signs of sleeping.

Dogen said on the side: "After the accident of the benefactor, the poor monk was afraid of destroying the things inside, so he didn't call anyone to clean it. ”

Shen Lingjun nodded, lifted the quilt that had been laid, moved the pillow away, and revealed a piece of paper folded in two underneath, which inexplicably felt a little familiar, picked it up and opened it, see the book:

Kan is water

Xi Kan: There are Fu, Wei Xinheng, and there are Shang.

"Elephant" said: The water is coming, Xi Kan; A gentleman walks with virtue and learns to teach.

Sixty-three, come to the bumps, dangerous and pillows, into the bumps, do not use.

"Elephant" said: "The hurdle of coming" is in vain.

In the lower left corner, there is still the stamp of the human head and the body of the fish.

"Mumu, come and take a look." Shen Lingjun greeted.

Su Musha is opening the window, the windows of the room here are not the same, the position is very high and the opening is small, at most he can only poke out the size of a head, and when he looks out of the window, he sees that there is an abyss below, and he knows the reason.

Hearing Shen Lingjun call him, he walked over to look at the paper in Shen Lingjun's hand and said, "Kan hexagram." ”

Tang Tang walked around, because the temple is really not big, and there is nothing to visit, he happened to walk to the door at this time, and curiously picked up the door frame: "What are you looking at?" ”

Shen Lingjun frowned: "Look below, there is also this pattern, it seems that it is not a coincidence." ”

Tang Tang and Shen Changfeng leaned over to look at it together, Tang Tang smiled: "This painting is too funny, people don't look like people, and fish don't look like fish." ”

Shen Changfeng said: "This hexagram is not very good. ”

Shen Lingjun looked at him: "How to solve it?" ”

Shen Changfeng said seriously: "Kan is water and danger, one yang and two yin." The two hurdles overlap each other, and the dangers are multiplied. And this hexagram is 63, which is the most vicious in the Kan hexagram. ”

Shen Changfeng pointed to the sentence 'the hurdle of coming, the danger and the pillow, enter the bump, don't use it': "The meaning of this sentence is that in order to advance and retreat, we are in the middle of the pit, and it is difficult to get safe in the face of danger, and we fall into the bottom of the pit. ”

Tang Tang tilted his head, a little incomprehensible: "What about the latter sentence?" ”

"Although we are anxious for peace, we can't get rid of the danger in the end, and everything is just useless." Su Musha added faintly.

Shen Lingjun frowned slightly: "Could it be that Ji Hongfei also went to calculate a hexagram before he died?" ”

Tang Tang asked the Tao Yuan with interest: "Your temple also brings fortune telling, give me a hexagram." ”

Dogen shook his head: "This temple has never told people fortunes, I'm afraid that the benefactor asked for a sign outside." ”

I rummaged through other places, but found nothing more, and several people exited from the rooms.

Just down the steps, a little monk passed by carrying a bucket of sewage, and accidentally almost hit Shen Lingjun, spilling a lot on the ground, and a rancid smell spread to everyone's noses.

Dao Yuan scolded him: "Yan Yan, I have told you many times, don't be so reckless in doing things, and quickly make amends to Lord Shen." ”

Yan Yan didn't dare to reply, and bowed with his palms together to apologize.

Shen Lingjun waved his hand: "It doesn't matter. ”

Dogen sighed: "This Yan Yan, for some reason in the past two days, the whole person is confused. ”

Yan Yi bowed his head slightly, listless, his expression was a little dumbfounded, and there were thick dark circles on his lower eyelids.

"Looks like I haven't slept yet." Shen Lingjun said.

Yan's mouth moved, and he raised his eyes to look at Dowon, but he didn't dare to speak.

Tang Tang teased: "I'm afraid the little monk is Sichun." ”

Yan Yan made her face blush: "Don't talk nonsense, I ...... I ...... two nights ago when I saw a ghost floating around."

"Don't speak before the Buddha." Dogen scolded him: "Go down and go about your business." ”

"Yes, Uncle Shi." Yan Yan knew that he had said the wrong thing, and bowed with his palms together.

Dogen said to everyone: "Yan Yan is talking nonsense, don't take it to heart. ”

A few people didn't care much and continued to walk towards the Buddhist hall.

Waiting for Shen Lingjun to return to the Buddha Hall, Ye Qingzhi had already finished examining the corpse, and while bowing his head to wash his hands, he said simply: "Drowned, there is no trace of struggle, judging from the corpse spots, it has been about six hours since he died." ”

Shen Lingjun nodded, indicating that he knew.

"I found this on him." Ye Qingzhi handed a piece of paper in her hand to Shen Lingjun.

Shen Lingjun took it, and was a little surprised that the paper was actually dry.

Ye Qingzhi saw her expression and explained: "Wrap it in oiled paper and put it on your chest." ”

Shen Lingjun opened it, and it was a sign, the same one she found in Ji Hongfei's guest room. It's just that the paper is noticeably newer, with no extra wrinkles and wear.

Shen Changfeng wondered: "How can there be two identical ones?" ”

Tang Tang said disapprerovingly: "Maybe it's counted twice." ”

Su Musha shook his head and said, "Or maybe someone deliberately wants us to see it." ”

Shen Lingjun took out two for comparison, the one he found in Ji Hongfei's room was obviously much older, the corners were crumpled, as if he often took it out to see, but the paper on his body was brand new.

Ye Qingzhi looked at Shen Lingjun and said, "I need a room." ”
