Finally, it was a step too late, and when Shun Yu and the two of them rushed into the Xianglai Garden, they felt that the breath was meeting, and in the meantime, a room was burning lotus flames, and the sky was smoky.

Seven or eight nursing homes carried buckets full of water, bang, splashing and sprinkling to the burning place, and a carved beam fell straight down, almost hitting the old Ken (similar to a brothel bustard) who was crying and wiping his tears.

The old Ken took a few steps back and continued to howl: "This is a god who sees me as unsatisfactory and commits a lack of morality, and it is not good to die if you want to cut off your children and grandchildren." ”

Behind the head of the cluster to watch the lively Youtong and Lao Ken, one of them sneered with melon seeds: "Self-inflicted sins can not live, we are all in the middle of the road to lay the altar to pray for blessings, you are not placed in the courtyard, now there is wind on the tree, the tin foil ingots in the charcoal basin with their own sparks, are blown and scattered, when the dry branches and silk satin are touched, you can still blame others." ”

"Kill you maggot chewing in your mouth." The old Ken listened with remorse and anger, took off one of his shoes, threw it into the crowd, and then took off the other.

Everyone dodged left and right, laughed and scolded, and made a mess.

Mason clenched Shunyu's sleeves tightly, and said to himself with a blank expression: "That's my brother's dormitory, and he's going to abandon me again." ”

Shun Yu comforted him slowly: "Don't be in a hurry, maybe he's not in the room." ”

As soon as the words fell, an earth-shattering gong was heard, and there were already more than a dozen arresters, surrounded by a six-grade official, striding into the courtyard with their heads held high, and the onlookers were all lowly and most afraid of seeing officials, and they were coaxed to be scattered in an instant.

"The government is handling the case, why don't you dodge it." The catcher came to drive him away with a face full of impatience.

Shun Yu said calmly: "Please inform me, Feng Shunyu, the superintendent of Dali Temple, will visit." ”

Seeing that he was solemn and dignified, the catcher did not dare to slack off for a while, and hurriedly went to speak, and after a while, he approached her again and invited her over.

Shun Yu asked Mason to wait in place, and went to the official to make a salute.

The official's name is Jin Rujing, he is the head of the Criminal Department, and Yu Tai was captured alive in the Guanyin case, and he was with Zhang throughout the whole process.

I was really impressed by this Feng Supervisor, not only a glimpse of the women's makeup, but also admired her courage and resourcefulness, so he excused himself and asked with a smile why she was haunted here?

Shun Yu also recognized him at this time, and said with a smile: "Today, there is a magic boat to surpass the undead, thinking of hiring a boat to swim around the Yuangong River, putting a few lotus lanterns to show sincerity, and just seeing the smoke rising here, I came over to take a look." “

Jin Rujing bowed his head, and his words were a little regretful: "There is a semi-new flower boat in my house, and the lights at the four corners of the canopy and the tables and chairs in the cabin are complete. “

Shun Yu looked at him with warm eyes, secretly surprised but did not show it, and smiled lightly and did not answer.

Just Lao Ken was brought by the arrestees, Jin Rujing did not shy away from Shun Yu, and asked Lao Ken the cause of the fire, and said that he was just eating and drinking in the house for a long time, and when he heard the shouts coming, the fire had already started and so on.

At this time, the remnants of the fire had been extinguished, and the catcher came out of the room with a blackened corpse on a bamboo stand, and put it in front of Jin Rujing for inspection.

"This corpse's face is blurred, how can you say that it is Chen Ruilin?" Shun Yu asked with a loud snort.

The old Ken cried and whimpered: "This dress was sent to him by the old slave Jinxin, the parrot brother green cocoon silk is straight, Brother Lin likes to wear it, and feels thin, he picked a gray squirrel hair from the cabinet and put it on the armor, and he will not admit it." ”

Shun Yu looked at it, although the clothes were shattered by the fire, the silk wool hidden in the neck and shoulders could still be distinguished.

Shun Yu glanced at Mason, who was obedient and stayed where he was, not approaching.

That old Ken was a money-hungry man, and secretly took off the big gold bracelet he wore on his wrist, and he was terrified, but when he heard the crisp sound of "click", he actually broke the bones of his hand.

"It's strange to say that bitches are ruthless, dramas are unrighteous, you are an old man, you are not afraid of unjust souls asking for debts at night." The catcher spat in his face, picked up his shirt and drove him away, even so, he could hear him mutter: "The bracelet of the dragon and phoenix Chengxiang was also bought by the old slave, and others burned it, and these jewelry will always return to the original owner." ”

Shun Yu didn't stay anymore, and said goodbye to Jin Rujing with a few words, that is, he dragged Mason out of Xianglai Garden.

Mei Xun stood in front of the door and suddenly didn't leave, only asked with a pale face: "I heard Lao Ken's shouting, he said that Chen Ruilin was burned to death, is it true that the master?" ”

Shun Yu secretly felt a touch of sourness in his heart, and swallowed the words to his lips, and his voice was slightly hoarse: "How can that old Ken talk nonsense be credulous, everything is still to be found out by the government, and we will wait a few days to find out." ”

Mason bowed his head silently, no longer stubborn, and walked slowly in the direction of the carriage together.

When he got to the carriage, Shun Yu happened to see that the French boat was still parading in the Yuangong River, and after thinking about it, he proposed to call a fishing boat and buy some lotus lanterns and put them in the river.

Mason is accustomed to hearing Shunyu, and has no objections, and soon found a fishing boat by the riverside, the old man is smoking noodles under the canopy, seeing that the visitors are generous, they simply don't eat anymore, and they also take out more than a dozen exquisite lotus lanterns, the Tao is made by their own mother-in-law, and the Buddhist monk is invited to brush it with his hand, which is very aura.

Shun Yu took out a few hundred dollars to him, and the old man accepted it with great gratitude.

When the sky was about to get dark, the river was cold and smoky, and a gust of wind blew through it, blowing ripples.

The boatman rowed his oars towards the center, and saw the lotus lantern floating like a Milky Way, and then drifting around with the waves, gradually sinking away and sinking until it disappeared.

They are all preoccupied, but they are forced to suppress themselves on the surface, each of them has taken one, placed it on the surface of the water, and watched the sparks flicker and tremble forward, Shun Yu broke the silence and said: "The Buddhist scriptures say that I am a sand gate, in a turbid world, like a lotus, not for pollution." Through the four virtues of the lotus flower, the shape and the river lamp can illuminate the dark and distant Yellow Spring waterway, so that the wandering and lost soul can follow the guidance of this pure light to find the direction of reincarnation. ”

The boatman interjected: "What this master said is true, if someone in the house dies, he needs his relatives to put the river lantern with his own hands, so that he can get out of the yin and yang worlds." ”

A bright moon rose, shining all over the boat, Mason's cheeks were so white and transparent, Shun Yu couldn't bear to see it, so he turned his head and asked the boatman: "Can you have tea in your awning?" Fetch it for us both to eat, and it can be warmer. ”

The boatman stopped the oars, brought a small worn-out square table, and then brought a clay pot and two greasy porcelain bowls, Shun Yu briefly poured half a bowl, frowned and ate two bites, it was not a good tea, like eating bitter water, fortunately it was boiling, just to draw that little bit of heat.

Mason shook his head and didn't eat, picked up the lotus lantern with his own hands attentively, closed his eyes and muttered to himself for a while, and then reverently let go of the waves, and tears suddenly flowed from his eyes.
