Mo Yanfei asked Master Zhiqing, "Master, are there still hunters living there often?" ”

"There are still some." Master Zhiqing said, "Not only hunters, but also people who collect herbs and herbs in the Chinese medicine shops often come up to the mountain now. ”

Mo Yanfei turned the ring, "The person who can afford to wear this ring is either rich or expensive, and it can't be a hunter who picks 'medicine' in the 'medicine' shop." ”

Jueming said: "Maybe it's a wealthy businessman passing by. ”

Mo Yanfei muttered: "It's possible, there are hunters who want to get rich and move to kill." But why would a rich merchant come to a place like ours? ”

Jueming said: "We have mountains and rivers here, which is not bad." ”

Mo Yanfei frowned, "It's good, but if it's a guest who is visiting the mountains and rivers, how can you not enter our Pujue Temple to have a look." ”

Jueming had a feeling of being hurt, "There are often guests passing by who go to bathe in the back mountain hot springs, and they don't come into our temple. ”

Mo Yanfei blinked, she believed that there were many people who believed in Buddhism now, but she couldn't understand why the incense in this Pujue Temple was always so deserted.

Mo Yanfei looked at the master and the senior brother, and said in his heart: It is a bit difficult to expect these two monks who are not like monks at all to keep pilgrims.

Mo Yanfei thought for a while and asked, "Senior brother, where did you find that left hand?" ”

"Not far from the ring." Jue Ming said, "After Lord Liu found the ring that day, we were thinking about what to do. Just in time for Sergeant Wang and his men to pass by at the bottom of the mountain, they saw us standing there and asked what was wrong. Lord Liu said that he had picked up the ring. ”

When Sergeant Wang saw that there was blood on the ring, he beckoned to his men and looked around. I didn't expect to find a hand, which should have been bitten by wild dogs, and its flesh and blood were blurred. ”

Mo Yanfei felt sick when she heard this, and she patted her chest.

Fu Wenpeng asked, "Didn't they pick up anything else around?" ”

"Nope." Jueming said: "That Sheriff Wang said that a corpse without a head, hands and feet was found not far away, so he wanted to send this hand and ring to the city. ”

Mo Yanfei stood up, "Senior brother, accompany me to the mountains for a walk." ”

Jueming was a little embarrassed, "No, now the wild dogs on the mountain have eaten human flesh, and it is not safe for us to walk on the mountain." ”

Mo Yanfei was stunned for a moment, "Senior brother, aren't you going out of the temple now?" ”

"Try not to go out." Jue Ming said solemnly: "Wild dogs that have eaten human flesh are the same as mad dogs, and we should try to stay away from them. ”

Er Yong smiled, "Senior brother, how can there be a reason to guard against wild dogs every day, let's go up the mountain and kill that wild dog." ”

Jueming's eyebrows tightened: "Amitabha, isn't this okay?!" ”

Er Yong smiled: "Senior brother, this matter has nothing to do with you, it is me who kills." ”

Master Zhiqing said: "If the dog will hurt people, we kill the dog, although we have committed the precept of killing, but in order to save people, the Buddha can understand our intentions." ”

Feng Qiang sat on the side and said in his heart: A master is a master, and you can find a reasonable explanation for killing.

When Jue Ming heard what Master said, he could only stand up, "Okay, let's go to the mountain and have a look." ”

Mo Yanfei discussed: Are you afraid of killing, do you want to accompany me to the mountain.

Several people walked out of Pujue Temple, and Mo Yanfei took the lead to go down the mountain.

Jueming shouted, "No, aren't you going up the mountain, we can go up the mountain from here around the temple wall." ”

Mo Yanfei smiled, "Senior brother, we have to walk according to the rules, and we can't take shortcuts." ”

Jueming had no choice but to follow them down the mountain.

When he was about to reach the foot of the mountain, Mo Yanfei asked, "Senior brother, where did you find the ring?" ”

Jueming pointed to the east, "You see that is the place." ”

Mo Yanfei looked in the direction of Jueming's finger, five meters away from the stone steps, where the weeds had been trampled flat.

Fu Wenpeng complained: "It's all stepped on like this, and it's impossible to leave any footprints." ”

Mo Yanfei didn't care, she walked down the stone steps and walked slowly along the dirt road up the mountain to the place where she had picked up the ring.

Although the weeds were trampled flat, there were still traces of blood in the place where the severed hand was found.

Mo Yanfei slowly glanced around, then squatted on the ground, silent.

Fu Wenpeng put on his gloves professionally and looked around.

Er Yong looked at Mo Yanfei and Fu Wenpeng, scratched his head, and asked Feng Qiang, "What kind of routine are these two people doing?" ”

Feng Qiang glanced at Er Yong, "Don't bother." ”

Er Yong pouted helplessly, "Who can disturb her." ”

Time walked minute by minute, and Mo Yanfei carefully inspected the weeds on the ground.

When she felt her back hurt, she stood up, "Dapeng, what did you find?" ”

Fu Wenpeng shook his head, "No." ”

Jue Ming sighed, "No, Sheriff Wang took a lot of people to search the day before yesterday, but they didn't find anything." ”

Mo Yanfei let out a long breath, "Then let's go up the mountain." ”

Several people began to walk slowly up the mountain, and from time to time they could hear the sound of the "medicine" pickers calling each other in the mountain.

Mo Yan asked puzzledly: "Senior brother, when did people start collecting 'medicine' here?" ”

Jueming explained: "In the past, there were also people who took 'medicine', but there were few people, and you didn't pay attention. ”

Mo Yanfei then asked, "Which 'medicine' shop are they?" ”

Jueming frowned. "I didn't pay attention to this, there were also two people who picked 'medicine' and went into the temple to offer incense, but for some reason, they didn't come later."

Mo Yanfei said: You often study food in the backyard kitchen; Master often studied chess games in the dormitory. There is no one in the hall every day, how can you two monks who are not doing their jobs be able to keep pilgrims.

The five of them walked up the mountain road.

Mo Yanfei suddenly found that there was a wooden house made of wooden planks in the clearing in the forest, the wooden roof was covered with yellowed weeds, and the surrounding area was depressed. Doors and windows are shut.

Mo Yanfei walked through a patch of weeds and came to the wooden house, where she tentatively pushed the door open.

The room was half-lit and half-dark, and against the back wall lay an empty wooden bed, beside which was a table made of rough wood and two wooden stools.

There was a thick layer of dust everywhere in the house, but the bed was very clean, and there was not a drop of blood in the room, except for some scattered footprints.

Fu Wenpeng said, "This is not like a hunter's house. ”

Feng Qiang said lightly: "There is no smell of blood here, let's go up the mountain again." ”

Mo Yanfei walked to the door, looked back at everything in the house, and muttered, "Who would come here to live?" ”

Er Yong said with a disgusted face: "I can't see this, this is the place for private meetings." ”

Mo Yanfei blinked his eyes and instantly realized, "Isn't it too far?" ”

"It's safe from afar." Er Yong said, "That woman can say to her family, go to the temple and offer incense." Then go directly to this wooden house to meet the "adulterer" husband privately. ”
