After six or seven minutes, three nuns walked into the meditation room, and one nun carried a small wooden bucket in her hand, and the barrel was covered with a piece of white gauze; The second nun carried a bamboo basket in her hand, and inside the bamboo basket were the dishes and chopsticks, which were also covered with a piece of white gauze; The third also carried an equally large bamboo basket on his arm, also covered with a piece of white gauze.

After a while, nine bowls of rice porridge were already placed on the table, two large plates of white flour steamed buns, a plate of dried radish, a plate of salted duck eggs, and a pair of bamboo chopsticks on each wooden bowl.

When everything was ready, a master said, "After the comrades finish their meal, put the dishes and chopsticks here, and we will clean them up later." There was also porridge in the barrels, and the comrades added it themselves. ”

After placing the wooden barrel and bamboo basket on the meditation bed, the three of them walked out of the meditation room.

The process of eating is very simple, and there is no need for the author to repeat it, but it is an incident that happened in the process of eating, which added a little expectation to our story after a period of bland and straightforward narration.

When Master Chen was eating steamed buns, he bit something in his teeth, and he suddenly exclaimed, "What is this?" Master Chen stopped chewing and took the foreign object out of his mouth, which turned out to be a small rolled up note.

Master Chen looked at the steamed bun in his hand, there was a crack in the steamed bun, and the note should be stuffed in this crack.

Liu Dayu took the note from Master Chen's hand.

Ouyang Ping stood up and walked behind Liu Dayu.

Everyone else gathered around.

The note was the same kind of paper that everyone had picked up earlier in the Jingwu Temple—this yellow-colored paper was only available in the temple.

Liu Dayu carefully unfolded the note—the one was thinner.

There was only one word written on the note: "Yu".

"Huh? What does that mean? Liu Wenbin said -- Liu Wenbin was here on an ad hoc basis, and he didn't know much about the whole case.

"In the names of all the buildings in Mingchen Temple, there is only one word 'secluded' in the three words 'quiet and secluded'." Liu Dayu said.

"Yes, 'secluded' should be 'quiet secluded courtyard'." Left to the east.

"The person who wrote the note was suggesting that we should focus our investigation on the Retreat - we can also understand that she wanted us to make Abbot Huijue the focus of our investigation." Liu Dayu said.

"Why didn't she make it clear?" Left to the east.

"Yes! The two notes should be written by the same person, the handwriting is not visible for a while, but the style of acting is similar, maybe she is afraid that others will find the note inside the steamed bun, so she only wrote one word. She didn't want to expose herself. ”

"Could it be that Master Nian Ci wrote it? It was she who suggested that we have breakfast at the West Zen Temple. Han Lingling said, "Captain, should we first control Abbot Huijue, and then conduct a serious and careful search of the Quiet Courtyard." ”

"It's not yet ripe to control Abbot Huijue, we need evidence, and Lian Luodan's diary is far from enough." Liu Dayu said.

"Da Yu is right, we don't have direct evidence in our hands." Ouyang Ping and Liu Dayu had the same idea.

"Now, what should we do?" Han Lingling said.

"Isn't Master Yan here? After Master Yan opens the stone door, of course, at night, we will continue to monitor the quiet courtyard and continue to follow Abbot Huijue. A lot of things happened after we entered the monastery, especially last night, and Abbot Ke Hui Jue was like an outsider - this was obviously a difficult character to deal with. ”
