Chapter 35: Monk Huiliang
Hui Liang walked to Lin Yun'er and stood still, sang a Buddha name, and said, "The mountain gate has been sealed in the past few days, no matter how this female benefactor appears in the temple, I hope to leave as soon as possible, so as not to cause trouble." ”
"How can the pure place of Buddhism cause trouble?" Lin Yuner returned the courtesy.
"This female benefactor may not know that there is a noble person in Jifu Temple, so she sealed the mountain gate, if she collides with this nobleman, I am afraid that no one can afford it." Hui Liang carefully explained to Lin Yun'er, "I hope that the donor will come back to burn incense and worship the Buddha in a few days, and Hui Liang will personally greet him at that time." ”
Lin Wan'er said, "Er's didn't mean to embarrass this master, but a friend of Er's lost his cane in the temple, so Er's helped find it for him." ”
"It was a friend of Xie Langjun, and the poor monk was rude." Hui Liang said, "Since this is the case, it is better for the poor monk to ask a few apprentices to help find it." ”
"That's right, thank you." Lin Yuner said. "I heard Lang Jun say, the abbot of your temple has passed away, a few years ago, I had the fate to get the abbot's approval, I want to see it today, but I don't want to see it, I don't know if the masters caught the murderer?" She intended to get as many pleasantries as possible so that she could get some information from them.
Hui Liang pointed out the road for Lin Yun'er, "Master I is good, Bi Shaoqing of Dali Temple came to judge the case, and the murderer was arrested in less than half a day. ”
"I wonder who the murderer is? The abbot has been doing good for many years, how can he make enemies with such a person? ”
Huiliang laughed to himself, "Master was a martial artist when he was a layman, and at that time, he also made some reckless friends, but it didn't matter whether he was offended or not. ”
Lin Wan'er was surprised, "The abbot was a martial artist when he was not a monk?" ”
"yes, but that was more than forty years ago." Huiliang Road. "In the morning, the poor monk saw Xie Langjun in the Daxiong Treasure Hall, I wonder if Xie Langjun would leave his cane there?"
"In this way, Master Lo Huiliang will lead the way." Lin Yun'er bowed and said.
"The pilgrims have lost something in this temple, and the poor monks should help them." Huiliang Road.
Huiliang's eyebrows and eyes were calm, and there were some slight wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, but the large area of skin around his mouth was lighter than the skin on his face, as if he had just shaved his beard, and he must have grown this beard for a long time. The monk's robe on his body is a slightly gray yellow, which is different from the blue-gray of ordinary little monks, as if it shows some kind of identity.
Soon, Hui Liang brought Lin Yun'er to the gate of the splendid main hall, the door of the hall is several zhang high, if you stand in front of the door and want to see the words on the plaque, you have to raise your head as much as possible.
"Female donor, please come here." Hui Liang flashed around and pointed out the way for Lin Yun'er.
Lin Yuner leaned in, and looked up at the three golden-bodied Buddha statues that were several feet high, these three Buddha statues are known as the three Buddhas, the rightmost is the Medicine Buddha of the Oriental Pure Glass World, the middle is the Shakyamuni Buddha of the Bhasa World, and the left is the Amitabha Buddha of the Western Elysium. The three Buddha statues are majestic and solemn, bowing their heads and opening their eyes slightly, as if they are inspecting the bitterness and joy of this world.
The Daxiong Treasure Hall is the main hall, and it is also the place where the monks concentrate on practicing in the morning and evening, so there is a large open space between the door and the Buddha, the open space is paved with high-quality black marble, smooth and clean and there is a trace of coolness, and hundreds of futons are placed on the open space, like the seats of the monks when they practice. At this time, several little monks were holding a cloth in their hands, wiping various utensils in the hall.
"Oops, I found it." Before she could take a few more steps, she heard Ziwei behind her scream excitedly, but Ziwei was just about to get the cane but was too frightened by her own echo to step forward.
When everyone heard Ziwei's call, they all turned their heads to look at her, and so did the little monks, but when they saw that it was Hui Liang who hurriedly saluted Hui Liang, and then dared to continue what he was doing, Lin Yun'er looked in the direction of the cane, but saw that the cane was standing right behind a thick pillar, which was located about a dozen steps on the right hand side of the door, which was extremely inconspicuous, but looking at this standing posture, it seemed that someone deliberately placed it here.
Lin Yun'er was silent, but Hui Liang walked a dozen steps with a smile to pick up the cane, and said to Ziwei, "The little donor has a good eye, but the poor monk has never seen it." ”
"Slaves and maids are just casual looks." Ziwei trotted a few steps forward to take the cane, but found that the cane was a few points heavier than an ordinary cane, looking at the material, it seemed to be made of high-quality black wood.
"The little benefactor is too humble." Hui Liang led the two out of the main hall and said, "Since you have found a cane, then the poor monk will send the two back, I don't know where Xie Langjun is at this time?" ”
Ziwei pointed in the direction of the Shoulu Academy, she noticed that Hui Liang's eyes sank, and she immediately returned to normal, "Bi Shaoqing and Prince Pingxi are trying the case there today, I'm afraid it will be a little inconvenient." The donor should find Xie Langjun quickly. After speaking, he led Lin Yun'er forward.
It was also a distance of a few hundred steps, and they walked to the vicinity of the Shoulu Academy, they looked at the Shoulu Academy, the gate of the courtyard was wide open, and there was a group of people standing outside the courtyard gate, as if they had just seen someone, there was no so-called Pingxi prince in this group of people, and even more, there was no figure of Mu Ling.
The leader is a man dressed in a dark crimson official uniform, and he has a silverfish bag pinned to his waist, showing his identity and status. Presumably, he is the most high-ranking person in this group. When he turned around, Lin Yun'er saw his appearance clearly, he was a long face, but his body was a thick appearance, above the two thin lips were two mustaches, the eyebrows and eyes were also slender, as if they were painted, and the eyes smiled as if they were two crescent moons, and the eyeballs were almost invisible. Looking at the position he is standing on, it should be Bi Shaoqing in the mouth of everyone.
Bi Shaoqing saw that it was Huiliang, so he stepped forward to greet him, "Master Huiliang, why did you get out of the customs?" ”
Hui Liang bowed down and replied, "Master has encountered an accident, Jifu Temple has no leader, how can a poor monk not go out?" ”
While speaking, Bi Shaoqing also noticed Lin Yun'er and asked, "I don't know where this lady came from?" This mountain gate has been sealed, could it be that the lady has not gone out? ”
Lin Yun'er owes herself, "Thank you for your concern, I just came to find a cane for my friend." ”
"I don't know if you found it?" Bi Shaoqing looked at Lin Yun'er with a smile, looking at her meaning, as if he was looking her up and down.
Lin Yun'er pointed to the cane in Ziwei's hand and said, "Thanks to Master Huiliang, otherwise I'm afraid I would have to look for it for a while." She paused, "Since I found it, I won't delay the adults to do business, so I will leave." ”
"The lady stays, the mountain road is rugged, how about the official send someone to send you?" Bi Shaoqing stepped forward and said.
"No need, I still have to go to see my friends, so I will leave." After speaking, Lin Yun'er didn't have to look back and left.
Ziwei followed closely behind Lin Yun'er, making sure that no one had followed behind her, so she snorted, "Hmph! Slave and maid, look at that Bi Shaoqing is not a good person! ”
"Knowing people and knowing faces but not hearts, Bi Shaoqing saw us walking alone in the mountain temple, it is common sense to worry, and besides, I have not seen anything in his eyes, if he has no malicious intentions, then he has other intentions." Lin Yuner said.
A burst of applause came from Guilin on the side, "Huang Niangzi is really smart." This seemed to be Xie Langjun's voice, but they looked in the direction of the sound, but they didn't see Xie Lin's figure.
Immediately, a figure disappeared from behind the thickest laurel tree not far away, and just took a step, but he didn't want to be entangled in something at his feet, and he stumbled. Lin Yun'er took the cane from Ziwei's hand, frowned slightly after touching the weight of the cane, then stretched it out, handed the cane up, and said, "Why did you lead us there?" ”
"Why does the lady ask that?" Xie Lin took the cane, put the cane against the ground and got up smoothly, and with a "bang", he was a head taller than Lin Yun'er.
Lin Yun'er tilted her head and said, "Lang Jun didn't really accidentally leave his cane in the Daxiong Treasure Hall, right?" If you don't have a cane, how can you go back to the meditation room and remember? No one will believe this when it comes to deceiving a three-year-old child. ”
Xie Lin still smiled and said, "But Huang Niangzi believes it." ”
Lin Yun'er was said to be blocked, she breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's because I also want to understand the situation." ”
"Therefore, after giving such a large favor to the lady, I should repay the lady's grace for finding a cane in the next, and the two do not owe each other." Xie Lin gently tapped the ground with his cane, using a position that he was extremely comfortable and familiar with, intending to pass Lin Yun'er and leave.
Lin Yun'er hurriedly opened her arms in front of him and said, "Xie Langjun, don't you want to explain something about today's matter?" “
Xie Lin lowered his head and said with a smile, "What does the lady want me to explain?" ”
"Why did you deliberately leave your cane in the Mahavira Hall?" Lin Yun'er still raised her head, her eyes were cold, staring straight at Xie Lin's bottomless eyes, although those eyes were deep, but Lin Yun'er could see her current appearance in them.
Xie Lin sighed lightly, waved his hand, and asked, "Lady is here, have you met anyone?" ”
"A monk named Huiliang, judging by the attitude of others towards him, he seems to be the abbot's great apprentice." Lin Wan'er recalled.
"Master Huiliang lives in a shallow way on weekdays, and has been copying scriptures in Wenjing Pavilion, and rarely walks around the temple." Xie Lin said, "It's Master Huixin, who is in charge of the Shoulu Academy at a young age, and is very respected by the whole temple. ”
"If my master dies, no matter how deep I am, I will come out to understand the situation." Lin Yuner said.
Xie Lin suddenly held his chin with his hand, squinted his eyes and looked down at Lin Yun'er, and said for a while, "Huang Niangzi is really different. ”
Lin Yun'er gave him a blank look, for some reason, her image of the person in front of her was extremely poor now, as if she had a feeling of being calculated. "Please Xie Langjun, don't worry about anything else."
"I don't know if Huang Niangzi has inquired about the death of the abbot?" Xie Lin continued.
Lin Yun'er shook her head, she wanted to understand, but she just made a trip to bite the gold halfway, and she could only return in vain.
Xie Lin shook his head in disappointment, "It seems that I still overestimated the ability of the Yellow Lady." ”
"What do you mean by that?"
"Don't be angry, just because the prince of Pingxi visited, so the death of the abbot is also secret, so as not to cause some unnecessary gossip, but the meaning of the sage is to investigate thoroughly, so Bi Shaoqing can only catch the guard of the yellow lady and not let go, but Shen and Dong Langjun saw the autopsy list and felt that this matter was strange, and they have been arguing with reason, so the case has not been decided." Xie Lin sighed lightly, "Actually, this case is not so difficult, but they all ignore a lot of things. “
"What's that?"
