At first glance, there was nothing unusual about the old man who delivered the meal. Because this prison is full of prisoners who are awaiting trial or have been tried but have not been sentenced, finding a mute who cannot speak is also a common method in public affairs. In this way, at the very least, it can be ensured that he will not take advantage of the delivery of food to collude with the prisoner in private, or give others entrainment.

So the gatekeeper looked at his waist card, and after routinely checking the food, he waved his hand and let him go. And after entering, the cell boss only cared about taking out his lunch first, and went to the duty room to enjoy it, who cares how the dumb old man distributes the meal?

Anyway, the keys to these cells are tied to his waist, the prisoners still have handcuffs and anklets, and there are heavy guards outside, trying to escape? It's like a dream!

Jane hid in the drain, observing the old man's movements. At first everything was fine, but after delivering the food from the upper cell, he went down to the dungeon with a barrel. There was originally an iron gate above this dungeon, and when he saw that it was a mute old man coming, the jailer guarding the door did not suspect him, and quickly opened the door and let him go!

At this time, Jian Qi felt that it was inappropriate, but he couldn't sneak into the dungeon, so he had to take the risk and quietly come back outside, and hurriedly lit a pile of straw mats placed outside, and said loudly: "Someone robbed the prison!" Someone robbed the prison! Come on! ”

This alarmed the officials guarding the door, and when they came out to see that the water was gone, they hurriedly gathered around to put out the fire. Some of them were more vigilant and immediately sent people down to check on the situation in prison, especially several important prisoners, and they had to check on them personally.

Not long after, an official ran out of the prison and replied angrily: "Oh no! The mute who delivered the meal was an assassin in disguise! He wanted to kill the monk Baozhen, but fortunately we arrived in time. ”

"What? Outrageous? How dare you openly rob a prison in broad daylight - someone! Quick, reinforce the dungeon, and capture the prison robber! ”

The prison was very close to the Los Angeles state capital, and at first Jian Qi was not worried that someone would be able to fight his way out of the siege alone. But a moment later, he found out that there was another ambush. The man thought that he had come with the robbers, and was half a step behind him, but he was extremely good at using hidden weapons, and after the fire was extinguished, he shot several officials with a crossbow, and then sealed the entrance to the prison outside with a dense bow and crossbow arrows.

Then Jian Qi found that the secret passage he used before was also occupied by them, and it seemed that he had another helper, ready to kill in the dungeon!

In this way, he has no choice. Then he gritted his teeth and covered his turban, and took advantage of the chaos to guard the drainage ditch in front of those people, and when he saw a person coming, he fought with him. Because of his kung fu, these people couldn't catch off guard, and after losing three or four in a row, some of those people said: "Withdraw!" ”

Jian Qi wanted to capture one alive and send it back for the master to interrogate, so he immediately chased after him. Who knew that this was just a trick on the other side's side, and when he left the prison less than a mile away, he immediately fell into the other party's encirclement. Seeing dozens of black-clothed people outflanking him from all directions, he was shocked in his heart - it seems that the case of this Baozhen monk is really as the master expected, and the truth behind it is by no means simple!

These people obviously wanted to take his life, so they shot ruthlessly and viciously, fortunately, at this time, Lu Zhaoming came to him on horseback with Mingyan, and when he saw this situation, he let Mingyan lead the horse and retreat, covered himself, drew his sword and rushed into the encirclement, and fought the enemy together with the front and back of the Jianqi.

"Lang Jun, I didn't expect you to really not make a move, it's amazing! The sword move just now, the light skill, is simply dazzling! ”

Lu Zhaoming put away his sword, waved his hand to stop the sycophants that had not finished shooting, and asked Jian Qi: "Are you here to extinguish your mouth?" What about the Baozhen monk, is he dead? ”

Jian Qi nodded, with a solemn expression: "Thank you Lang Jun for helping!" The slave was ashamed, and wanted to stop it after finding out that these people were going to be unfavorable to the Baozhen monk, but he didn't expect so many people to come from the other party, although he warned the state government officials in time, but he didn't ensure that the Baozhen monk was still alive. ”

Lu Zhaoming didn't blame him, and after carefully inspecting the dead black-clothed people lying on the ground, the expression on his face became even more solemn.

"I don't blame you for this, it's me who underestimated the strength of the other party. But fortunately, since they can use so many people to kill people, it is even more corroborative, and my judgment should be correct......"

Because the place of the fight was close to the state jail, they did not delay much in the fight. However, when Lu Zhaoming traveled all the way and arrived in the capital the next morning, he received a simple flying pigeon message, and after learning that the monk Baozhen did not die in yesterday's chaos, he made up his mind and hurriedly changed his clothes to meet Yang Yanming and Xu Zhizhang.

When the two of them saw him, they were also heavy, Yang Yanming didn't go to discuss with him in the morning, and when he saw Lu Zhaoming, he said: "Zichu, this matter is a little tricky." The Baozhen monk of Yunze Temple, what do you say he is from? ”

Lu Zhaoming frowned: "He is a disciple of the Tantric sect?" ”

Seeing Yang Yanming bowing slightly, he and Xu Zhizhang exchanged a look with each other, both full of shock and doubt.

As we all know in the Dasheng Dynasty, the children of the Xiao family of the royal family all believe in Buddhism, whether it is the emperor or the princess or even the concubine and the prince, etc., they all take the Buddha to cultivate the body and mind as the daily etiquette. Therefore, in the territory of the Dasheng Dynasty, there are a large number of temples and nunnery, and the monks and nuns who are enshrined account for one-tenth of the people.

These monks and nuns have a respected social status, do not have to pay taxes, and the government provides monthly funds for support, and they have a lot of trust and dignity in front of the people, so once the temple is involved, the government is a headache.

And there are also factions among the monks, that is, the dispute between Tantra and Zen Buddhism that has not been resolved until now in the previous dynasty, and unfortunately, if today's son is increasingly inclined to worship the Tantric sect, he has earlier canonized the Tantric successor Caiyi Ming King as a national teacher, and often summons each other to accompany him.

Regarding these, Yang Yanming, Xu Zhizhang, and even Lu Zhaoming all knew about it. However, Lu Zhaoming was not timid because of this, and analyzed: "That Baozhen monk is really a disciple of the Tantric sect, but his crimes are so profound and unforgivable that even the national teacher may not dare to intercede for him." Instead, I wondered if his actions at the Yunze Temple in Los Angeles were his intentions alone, or was it instructed by someone else? ”

As he spoke, he told the remaining two that the monk Baozhen was almost killed in the Los Angeles prison. Hearing that the other party was so numerous, and openly robbed the prison and broke into the dungeon during the day, Xu Zhizhang shook his head and said: "Then this matter will inevitably involve more and have a lot to do with it." I have a hunch that it seems that the Yunze Temple case is just a bait that was pulled out by chance. As for where these people put the bait and what kind of big fish they want to catch, then we have to slowly find out along this line——"

"You can't be slow, if you slow down, it will inevitably change. I think these people are now aware of the risk of exposure, so it is imperative to start with the temples in the capital! ”

After Lu Zhaoming finished speaking, he focused his eyes on Xu Zhizhang beside him. When he looked at him like this, Xu Zhizhang suddenly felt terrified: "Why are you looking at me like this?" I never go to the temple to worship the Bodhisattva, this kind of thing, you should ask your mother-in-law who cooks in the courtyard. ”
