733. Chapter Ninety-Nine: Ouyang Ping Meets Abbot Liu Dayu to understand the situation
"Please come with the poor monk." Zhiren took a step back, bowed his head and bent over, and raised the lantern to lead Ouyang Ping.
"Da Yu, you and Zuo Xiangdong stay here." Ouyang Ping looked at Liu Dayu, and then swept the monk standing in the corridor.
Liu Dayu understood what was in Ouyang Ping's eyes, and the top priority was to find a few monks to learn about Guangjie's activities this afternoon. If Supervisor Jiren had designed the script and lines in advance, only a few people would have participated in the performance. Whether it is a tomb robbery or a murder case, only a few people will be involved.
Let's first take a look at the results of Liu Dayu and Zuo Xiangdong's investigation. In less than a minute, Zuo Xiangdong summoned five monks, and the other monks went back to their meditation room, Liu Dayu invited the monks into Guangjie's meditation room one by one, and Zuo Xiangdong and other monks stood in the corridor and waited.
Liu Dayu's inquiry only took about fifteen minutes, and the five monks said the same thing: At noon, after eating fasting, everyone did not see Guangjie again. Guangjie lived alone in a meditation room, because he was the head of the gang and was in charge of the food and boiling water of the forty-six monks in the monastery. Ordinary monks are all a few people in a meditation room. Is it any wonder that Guangjie often sends food to Wang Shiqin? It is also convenient to live alone alone, and at night if you have any ideas.
Because Guangjie lived in a meditation room alone, no one knew about his activities, and in addition, Guangjie usually didn't speak much, so the five monks knew very little about Guangjie's situation. They didn't even know about Guangjie and Wang Shiqin's affair.
One of the five monks was a monk who lived next door to Guangjie, and his Dharma name was Huairen. Liu Dayu talked to him for a long time. Although Huairen lives next to Guangjie, the two of them have almost no contact, and Huairen doesn't know anything about Guangjie and Wang Shiqin.
Huairen also opened two wooden boxes and cabinets to take a look, and inside the wooden boxes were neatly placed the clothes that Guangjie usually wore. Ouyang Ping and Liu Dayu noticed that there were several sets of clothes that were commonly worn by martial arts practitioners. Dare to be affectionate and prescribe martial arts.
Huairen also took out a very delicate copper box from the bottom of the cabinet, opened the copper box, and inside was thirteen silver dollars, and the silver dollars had the head of Yuan Shikai on them. In addition to the thirteen silver dollars, there was also a silver lock - a silver lock hanging around the neck of a child, and there were words on both sides of the silver lock, and the words on both sides were "long life and 100 years old" and "eternal peace".
Footsteps were heard outside the round door.
"Master Huairen, let's talk about this, if you think of anything, please try to contact us."
Huairen quickly exited the room.
Liu Dayu and Zuo Xiangdong walked out of the meditation room.
Two monks carrying lanterns and clustering an old monk walked north, and the person walking in the middle should be the abbot of Yiqing, who wore the same monk's robe as ordinary monks, but wore a yellow robe on his upper body. He also carried a man-high Zen staff on his right hand.
Master Zhiren walked behind Abbot Yiqing.
What Liu Dayu and Zuo Xiangdong heard earlier was not the sound of footsteps, but the sound of the Zen staff falling to the ground.
Ouyang Ping walked next to the old monk.
Although the abbot's steps were slow, his body was very strong, and he slowly walked into Guangjie's meditation room and glanced at the meditation room. The monks who had gathered in the corridor gathered again, and they stood not far from the door of the meditation room, all with pious expressions.
