Chapter XXVI: Suspects and Alerts
Li Shimin turned back to Xuanzang and said, "Can you wait here for a while, I'll go over and have a look first." This kind of incident is usually just a process for me, and we'll continue to talk about it when we come back. ”
"Okay."
So Xuanzang stayed in the reception room, refilled his tea very consciously, and thought about the next direction while drinking.
At this time, the door was suddenly opened, and Xia An probed in, saw Xuanzang, and exaggerated "Huh", saying, "You are really here, I couldn't believe it when the supervisor told me." I heard that you have made great contributions to Chang'an, and you are a distinguished guest invited by him, and the specific content is still top secret. I haven't seen you for a few days, and you actually did such a big thing, and I didn't dare to recognize you. ”
Xuanzang smiled and asked her, "Aren't you interrogating suspects outside, why did you come in?" ”
"That guy is carrying something weird, the overseer asked me to call you out to see if you recognize it, after all, you are a messenger."
The identity of the courier seems to be unremarkable, but it has a lot of fame in the wasteland. Being able to traverse the treacherous wasteland single-handedly and deliver letters safely to the recipient is certainly not an idle one. At the same time, the word messenger also means knowledgeable, neutral and impartial, and when a situation is indecisive, people will naturally think of asking him for help if they are present.
Xuanzang agreed, and was about to get up, when the wasteland assistant on his wrist vibrate.
He could have waited until no one was around, as he had done before, but now he had a sudden instinct in his mind, as if something irreparable would happen if he didn't read it immediately.
So Xuanzang, who was following Xia An, slowed down and raised his hand to read the message sent by Erlang God.
"Don't reply! The information is wrong, Guanyin has gone to Chang'an in person, the original plan has been disrupted, and all contact with the target is immediately suspended! Disconnect all communications and don't reply until I re-contact you! ”
Xuanzang stood in place, stunned on the spot.
Guanyin in Chang'an!?
Sure enough, even the prism of the god Erlang couldn't observe her actions in advance?
It is imperative to ensure that you do not go undetected......
But this body is made by Guanyin!
Wrong...... He was a baby then, and he shouldn't be recognizable now. But instead of destroying it, but throwing this body into the mortal world, did it leave some recognizable hidden features?
"Xuanzang?"
No, if he could be recognized, Yang Jian would not have chosen to monitor the scripture learner himself, he would not do such an uncertain thing......
"Xuanzang, why did you stop?" Cheyenne walked back in front of him and shook her hand.
He quickly came back to his senses and said, "Oh, it's nothing, I ......"
That old man, could it just be ......
Xuanzang didn't know why he made such a bizarre guess, obviously there was no correlation between the two things.
Wait a minute! Cheyenne just said that they didn't know what the suspicious figure was carrying, could it be that they arrested the strange old man?
Then you should find a reason to leave now.
No, it's so strange to behave like this, so I have to-
"I haven't finished my tea yet." A series of thoughts were actually just a flash, and Xuanzang only had a very short pause between his words, and then naturally followed by such an abrupt sentence. After saying that, he really walked back and drank all the tea before returning to Cheyenne.
Xuanzang admired with a look of enjoyment: "Just this tea, coming to Chang'an is worth the trip!" ”
Cheyenne rolled her eyes speechlessly, and said, "You are as strange as the Overseer's hobby, and I have never found anything good to taste in that bitter thing, although it is quite precious. ”
The two came to the conference hall, Li Shimin sat on the iron throne carved with a dragon, and used a cane to flick the rag-like clothes on the ground, two powerful security officers in the hall were escorting the suspect, and a tall and thin man wearing monocles stood aside.
Xuanzang looked at the suspect's face, it was the old man he met in the living area.
Seeing Xuanzang coming, Li Shimin got up and put on gloves, and motioned to Xia An to give Xuanzang a pair of gloves as well, and then wrapped the rags in front of him and handed them to Xuanzang. "Mr. Xuanzang, please take a look at whether you can see if you can see these two objects. With a little caution, there may be hazardous substances that cannot be detected by our instruments. ”
Xuanzang pretended to pick up the armor and the strange gun respectively, looked at them over and over for a few minutes, and finally said, "It's just an ordinary piece of clothing." As for this gun, I have not seen such a model, maybe I can find a venue to try it out. ”
Li Shimin shook his head and said, "The source is unknown, it's best not to try." ”
As he spoke, he turned to Cheyenne again and said, "I have just interrogated him again, and it is indeed consistent with the statements you have gathered from the people who have seen the goods. He claimed that they were two treasures, but refused to reveal their origin and his origin. ”
Xia An bowed, bowed his head and said, "The subordinates are incompetent, and they are willing to be punished for letting such an unidentified person infiltrate Chang'an." But please make a decision first, and let me personally deal with the suspects, so as to prevent future troubles. ”
"Slow down, adult!" The man wearing monocles suddenly said, "Xiao Yu dared to say one more thing." This old man is indeed a believer in my Buddha, and I have tested him many times with the difficult and profound Dharma, and he can answer them fluently, and his insights are unique, and even the method of insight is on a par with Master Shenfang. My lord, don't punish a master by mistake. ”
Li Shimin asked: "It's really a Buddhist master, why do you resolutely refuse to reveal your background?" also bypassed the surveillance and infiltrated Chang'an, which is really suspicious. ”
The old man who was escorted and knelt on the ground said in a dumb voice: "Amitabha, there is nothing to say here. The donor still has a grudge in his heart, so naturally he can't see through the true face of my two treasures. ”
Li Shimin put his hands together and said: "I only know a torn dress and a strange gun, and I dare to sell it for a sky-high price of 7,000, no matter how you look at it, it looks like a liar." I ask you, if these two are really treasures, why can't even the messenger recognize them? ”
Xuanzang hurriedly said: "My lord has said it, the messenger is not omnipotent. Seeing that this old man is still calm and calm, not like a broken heart liar, you might as well give him a chance to explain it well. ”
Don't get involved with me, change the subject.
Thinking like this, Xuanzang looked at a few people around him, and suddenly turned to Xiao Yu and said, "I heard this gentleman just now, and after his research, it was confirmed that the old man was a member of Buddhism. I don't know the cause and effect, but can you explain why you thought of using Buddhism to verify the identity of the elderly? ”
Xiao Yu explained: "In fact, when I asked the old gentleman for the price, the sheriff happened to receive the news and came to arrest him, and I had already talked with the old gentleman for a while and knew something about these two treasures. ”
According to Xiao Yu, he was also attracted by the bizarre high price of those two things, so he was curious to ask. He asked the old man what was so magical about these two goods, that they would sell for seven thousand chips.
You know, a transaction of 7,000 chips is almost impossible to happen. Don't say that you can't afford the price, just shipping so many chips is exaggerated enough.
The old man replied, "This armor is called Jinxi." Wearing it, the fairy spirit is empty, the auspicious light is holy, and you can avoid sinking into hell and avoid the disaster of tigers and wolves. This shot is called mercy, not to kill, but to cross people. Those who are compassionate immediately put down the butcher's knife and are dedicated to goodness. Those who are already kind are unharmed, and their bodies and minds are getting healthier. But if it is a vicious person, even if he wears divine armor, his brain will explode and he will fall into hell.
"However, I have both good and bad things. Ordinary people who have improper mental skills and slander the Buddha are difficult to see this treasure. And although it is a treasure, there are both places for money and places for money. ”
Xiao Yu was even more curious, and asked him what it meant to want money and not want money.
"If you don't follow the Dharma and force you to buy brocade and compassion, you will definitely ask for 7,000 chips. If you take refuge in my Buddha and are virtuous, I would like to give him a blessing of mercy and kindness. ”
After Xiao Yu finished telling this story, he said: "When I heard this, I knew that he must be a good person who believes in Buddhism. I also thought that I was preparing for the next week's water and land conference for Master Shenfang, and with Master Shenfang's virtue, he was worthy of these two treasures. When the time comes, the treasure will be added, and the educational effect will definitely be better. It's just that Miss Cheyenne suddenly arrested the old gentleman, and she was in a hurry and didn't have time to explain. I would like to ask the Overseer to reconsider. ”
