Chapter 229: Stealing
"Hui Ke, you go and take out the relics. After the old monk knocked the boy in brocade unconscious, he said to Hui Ke.
Hui Ke's face suddenly darkened, and asked him to take it out of that place, isn't this disgusting, it's just the words of the Dharma Protector Elder, he had to listen to it, so he had to endure the disgust, took off the pants of the boy in brocade, and took out the relics from it.
Hui Ke took it out and handed it to the old monk.
"You take it yourself, and when the mirage is over, you take the relics and clean them and put them in their original place. The old monk didn't answer and said.
Hui Ke's face was black and black, and he wanted him to take it, and there was a foul smell on it, when will this mirage end.
He had no choice but to take it tragically, sadly, and stand there.
The reason why the old monk asked him to take it instead of putting it elsewhere was because he was afraid that the relics would be stolen again, and Hui Ke also knew the old monk's thoughts, so he had to take the relics.
The other monks snickered when they saw Hui's sad appearance.
"What are you laughing at, Huiming, you take five people to escort this thief to the official mansion, and the rest of the people will retreat. The old monk said sternly.
"I'm sorry everyone, the loss of the relics this time has brought so much trouble to everyone, my mountain temple specially presented each person with an open mountain god statue, and the five people who just understood my temple and took off their clothes, my mountain temple each took out a thousand taels of silver to give to you. ”
After the old monk finished speaking, two monks immediately took the statue of the mountain god and distributed it to everyone, and also took out five thousand taels of silver and gave it to five people.
The dissatisfaction with the forced undressing of the five people immediately dissipated, but they were not suitable to stay here, it was too embarrassing, and they left here directly.
And Zhou An also handed over the jade pendant to the girl's hands at this time, and finding the murderer so quickly was mainly due to the girl, so Zhou An gave her the jade pendant.
But the girl didn't answer, and said: "I am the disciple of the host, and it is natural to catch the person who stole the relics, so I don't accept this jade pendant." ”
"You can't let me be untrustworthy, if I don't give it to you, who else can I give it to. Zhou An said with a smile.
The girl couldn't shirk it again and again, so she had to take the jade pendant down, and many people looked at the girl with envy, this jade pendant was worth thousands of taels of silver, and Zhou An gave it away for nothing.
Later, the girl also left, and left with the two old monks, as if she was going to the government to deal with the thief's affairs.
After they left, Zhou An looked at the mirage of the relics, not to mention, the phantoms inside were constantly changing all the time, the scene of the beautiful woman dancing just now had disappeared, and now it has become a scene of beautiful women playing music, some playing the zither, some blowing the flute, some playing the piano, etc., and even the music played can float to Zhou An's ears, like a dream, very wonderful.
Zhou An looked at the others, looking at the intoxicated expressions of the others, it was obvious that he had also heard the music playing, except for one person, that was Hui Ke, the stench emitted by the relics was simply his torture, he didn't feel the beauty of the music at all, only pain.
Soon the sound stopped, and even the illusion disappeared, and it was supposed that the time for the relics had come.
"It's so disappointing why it's gone so quickly. ”
"It's really in vain, I saw a beautiful fantasy and listened to a beautiful piece of music. ”
"I'll come back next time. ”
............
While they were talking, everyone left, and since the time for the relics was over, they could no longer be seen here, so they simply left to visit other places.
Zhou An also left with Li Yuxuan, and when Zhou An was leaving, the ghost spirit Duoduo took the relics and drilled into his cuffs.
Because they didn't leave until tomorrow, Zhou An and Li Yuxuan rented two rooms from the monks and stayed here.
After staying in the guest room, Zhou An continued to practice soul searching, his time was too little, so he planned that in the future, in addition to being very sleepy, Zhou An only slept for one or two hours a day, after all, after he became a Tongmai martial artist, the time to sleep was also shortened, unlike before, when he slept for four or five hours.
The next day.
Zhou An and Li Yuxuan planned to leave the mountain temple, and they had to return to the rented house in Baiquan County before noon and wait for the arrival of the poster.
As long as you get the post, it means that the title of the person is implemented, and you will go to the county government with the sticker.
After coming to the county office, the county decree distributed the seal of the person in order to become a scholar who raised people.
There are ten people who can become lifters every year, and these ten people are the best among thousands of talents, so only ten people can get the lifter.
It's just that after Zhou An and Li Yuxuan came to the door, they were stopped by the monks, saying that the relics in the temple had been stolen, and now they are strictly investigating them, asking them not to walk around.
Zhou An naturally knew the reason, but today was the day of the sticker, and he had to leave, so Zhou An resolutely said the reason for leaving, if the monk didn't let him leave, Zhou An would go to the county government to seek justice.
When the monk heard that this was the reason, he immediately said, "I'll go and tell our Dharma Protector Elder that you can wait a while." With that, one of the monks left in a hurry.
Soon the monk came over with a girl, and this girl was the girl who claimed to be the presiding disciple of the mountain temple yesterday.
The girl was stunned when she saw Zhou An, but she quickly reacted and said, "It's you, then you can leave." ”
"Thank you then, but why was the relics of your temple stolen again, won't it still be the thief before. Zhou An said.
"It's not the thief before, it's another person who stole it, as for who it is, we are now verifying, and I believe we will be caught soon." The girl said melancholy.
"With your intelligence, you can definitely catch the thief, so I will congratulate you in advance. Zhou An and Li Yuxuan left.
The girl instructed the monk a few words, and went to investigate again, this time the person who stole the relics was very mysterious, not easy to check, she investigated for a long time without the slightest clue, so she used to seal the temple This is not a way, but the temple can not be closed for a long time, it must be found out before the temple is unsealed, otherwise it will be rebounded by pilgrims.
Zhou An and Li Yuxuan walked outside the mountain temple, and there were seven or eight carriages waiting not far away, and when Zhou An and Li Yuxuan came over, the horsemen of those carriages said one after another:
"Childe, take my carriage, my carriage is fast. ”
"Childe, take my carriage, my carriage is very stable. ”
"Mademoiselle, take my carriage, my carriage is very cheap. ”
............
"We'll take your carriage. Zhou An said to the groom whose carriage was very stable.
"Okay, Childe and Miss, please get in the car. The carriage wiped the edge of the carriage, lifted the cloth from the carriage, and let Zhou An and Li Yuxuan get on the carriage.
After getting into the carriage, the groom asked, "Where is Childe going?" ”
"Baiquan County, No. 216. Zhou An said simply.
"Got it, let's go. As he spoke, the groom drove the carriage off into the distance.
"I seem to have forgotten something, and I can't remember what it is. Li Yuxuan always felt that there was still something to do, and said to herself.
"Maybe you're too tired to play, just take a good rest. Zhou An said comfortingly.
"Possibly. Li Yuxuan said uncertainly.
The carriage came to the house they rented, Zhou An gave the groom a tael of silver, and the groom drove the carriage away, at which time Li Yuxuan suddenly said loudly: "I remember that I forgot something." ”
"Forgot something. Zhou An asked.
"Those talents in the ancient county town who went with us, I don't know if they are trapped in the mountain temple, if they are trapped in the mountain temple, then they will miss it. Li Yuxuan said with annoyance: "I would have looked for them if I knew it." ”
"It's nothing, it's good to have us, if one of them wins the lift, we will accept the lift for them and give it to them later." Zhou An said.
"Uh-huh, that's okay too. Li Yuxuan said.
"Brother Zhou, Miss Li, why are you only coming back now, it looks like it's almost noon. Xu Shilin came out of his house and said.
As he spoke, the other Xiucai also stepped out.
"When did you come back, isn't the mountain temple closed? Li Yuxuan said.
"It's a closed temple, and we secretly crawled out of the outside wall. Xu Shilin said embarrassedly.
