Lin Yi, who was the first to discover this situation, hurriedly picked up the hand of the host of Huitong, carefully scraped off the gilt fragments in his fingernails, and then got up and came to the Buddha statue to compare it carefully, it was exactly the same thing!

This incident not only shocked Lin Yi and the monk who was angry, but even the young disciples who were chanting the Buddha on the side were also shocked for a while, and everyone was a little overwhelmed for a while.

Relatively speaking, Lin Yi looked calmer, looked at the gilded fragment in his palm, and was silent for a moment: "Everyone, what do you think about this matter?" ”

Not to mention the other disciples, even the monk who quit hatred didn't know what to say at this time, he was silent speechlessly, and no one answered Lin Yi's question.

Seeing the expressions of these people at the scene, Lin Yi shook his head helplessly and said, "Forget it, don't worry about this matter, there is always a way to explain it, you continue to exceed." With that, Lin Yi glanced at the monk who was angry, and the two of them left the hall and walked out.

After walking out of the main hall, Lin Yi took out the gilded fragments in his palm, and said with a solemn face: "Do you think that if your master destroys the head of the Buddha statue, is it possible?" ”

The monk thought for a while, shook his head and said, "I don't know about this, but since there are gilded fragments in Master's nails, then even if the Buddha statue was not destroyed by Master, Master has at least touched the Buddha statue." ”

After Lin Yi heard this, he was slightly surprised: "Hey, why don't you refute what I said?" ”

The monk was silent for a moment and said: "It's useless to refute anything now, I just want to find the murderer of Master as soon as possible, and then avenge Master and his old man, but why, why are any clues we find related to Master?" ”

The problem of quitting hatred and being a monk is also Lin Yi's biggest headache so far, Lin Yi eased his mind and said: "I don't know, maybe these things were deliberately arranged by the murderer, or maybe there is something hidden in this that we haven't discovered, I feel that my brain is so messy now, it seems that there is still a thread missing, a thread that can completely untie my heart knot, as long as I can grasp this thread, things can be completely revealed." ”

As he spoke, Lin Yi turned his head to the monk and said, "Forget it, I think it's still necessary for me to ask some questions from your uncle of the remaining two Huizi generations, you can take me over." ”

Who knew that the monk did not agree to Lin Yi this time, but shook his head seriously and said, "I'm afraid this won't work." ”

"Why not? There are a lot of questions now, and only they can help me answer them. ”

The monk still shook his head and said, "Lord Lin, don't you know, during the day, except for some young or late disciples in the Wuxiang Temple, everyone else is closed and meditates in their rooms, and only at night, they will come out." ”

"What kind of logic is this? Co-authored these old monks are all night owls? Afraid of the sun? That's right! ”

Speaking of this, that aura suddenly appeared in Lin Yi's heart again, and when he came to Wuxiang Temple for the first time, that strange feeling was finally recalled by Lin Yi! A vague answer gradually appeared in Lin Yi's mind.

"Do you remember, when we came, you once told me that your master set a time for you, and you are not allowed to come back until the specified time, right?" Lin Yi turned his head abruptly and asked the monk to quit hatred.

The monk was startled by Lin Yi's sudden spirit, and hurriedly nodded: "Yes, Master once said that I am not allowed to come back in less than a month, why did Master Lin suddenly ask about this?" ”

Lin Yi didn't answer, but continued to ask: "Don't talk, I just ask you what you say, you Wuxiang Temple go according to generation, how many generations are there in total?" ”

The monk thought about it carefully and said: "There are four generations in total, the highest Huizi generation, and the rest, Xuanhe Ring." Except for several masters of the Huizi generation, the other disciples are actually the apprentices of the masters of the Huizi generation, but according to the different time of entry, the law name is also different. ”

Lin Yi nodded after hearing this, turned his head to look at the young disciples who were active in the Wuxiang Temple around him, and said, "What kind of disciples are these?" ”

"All of them are from the precept generation, these are my junior brothers, Master Lin, what do you want to say?"

"Since these are your junior disciples, then among the precept generation, you should be the most senior, right? How many years have you been at the Temple of Phase? ”

The monk recalled slightly: "Yes, I am indeed the oldest of the precept generation, I was adopted and taught by the master since I was a child, and it has just passed twenty years, if you don't count the month I left, it is exactly more than twenty years and two days." ”

Hearing this answer, Lin Yi became more and more sure of the answer in his heart, and said to himself: "In this way, even if you are a disciple of the Ring Generation, none of them have stayed in Wuxiang Temple for more than twenty years. I see, I see. ”

"What do you understand? Master Lin, can you tell me about what you have discovered? The monk asked reluctantly.

Lin Yi still didn't answer him, and asked, "Do you know where the overall design of the Wuxiang Temple is?" ”

The monk pointed to the position at the back of the hall and said, "In the Scripture Pavilion, if Lord Lin wants to watch, I can take you there." ”

After hearing this, Lin Yi nodded and said, "Quick, I already roughly understand what is going on, as long as my final conjecture is confirmed, then the whole thing can be completely revealed!" ”

"So, Master Lin, have you guessed who the murderer is?" Seeing that Lin Yi was so confident, the monk who quit anger also became excited.

"Yes, I already know, take me with me, and when I'm completely sure, I'll tell you everything."

At dusk, after Lin Yi stayed in the Scripture Pavilion for a whole day, Lin Yi, who had been reading and not speaking, finally raised his head slowly, looked at the sunset on the horizon with confused eyes, and finally said to himself: "Sure enough, I understand, I understand everything." ”

The monk who had been waiting on the side hurriedly asked, "Master Lin, tell me who the real culprit is, and I will summon the monks of the whole temple to arrest him!" ”

Lin Yi slowly turned his head and stared at the monk for a long time before saying, "I'm sorry to tell you that the murderer who destroyed the Buddha statue and killed Huineng and Huikong was indeed your master Huitong. ”

"How, how is it possible! Didn't my master be killed too? Master Lin, is there something wrong with your reasoning? Hearing this astonishing answer, the monk couldn't help but step forward and ask.

Lin Yi shook his head slightly and said, "This time it will definitely not be wrong, this is indeed the final answer, but your master did this not because of anything else, but because he wanted to tell me something, something that he couldn't say by himself!" ”
