Volume 5 Jiangnan 480 Temple Chapter 468 Involved in a big case

To be so anxious that Zhishan couldn't care that Sun Ning ran to ask for help as soon as he was injured and unconscious, obviously because they were really in great trouble.

Sun Ning also immediately cheered up and carefully asked what happened. After the monk in front of him said it, he knew what kind of problem they had encountered.

The incident in Hanshan Temple is too big, just the dead and injured people, and most of the destroyed temples are enough to make Suzhou officials and others feel very troublesome, not to mention that more than a dozen children of the nine surnamed Hao clans were assassinated.

If it's just the previous problem, even if the government doesn't have clues about the suspect in its hands now, they can still drag on for a while, and then randomly arrest some criminals to make up the number, and turn a big thing into a small one.

Although Hanshan Temple's status in Suzhou is also quite transcendent, and the officials will be under great pressure, they still have a way to deal with it. But after the murder case of a child of a wealthy family with nine surnames being assassinated in public, the seriousness of the case is completely different, and it is not that many officials can prevaricate casually, or find some ordinary criminals to confess the past.

Especially among the deceased, there are also people from the Su and Wu families who are extremely powerful in Suzhou, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they cover the sky with one hand, and the pressure on the government has doubled.

It can be said that even the position of Suzhou Taishou can be judged by these two families, if they can't give them a satisfactory explanation this time, I'm afraid that now Suzhou officialdom will have to change a group of people.

It is precisely because of this that when the names of the Su and Wu families were handed to the yamen, the entire Suzhou officialdom was shaken, and the Hanshan Temple, which was already surrounded by regiments, guarded a battalion of soldiers and horses inside and outside, and did not let anyone enter and exit at will.

Even the monks of this monastery were carefully interrogated, not to mention monks from other places such as Zhishan.

Moreover, as the monks of Yunlin Temple in Hangzhou, as the biggest competitor of Hanshan Temple, monks such as Zhishan are listed as the most important objects of suspicion.

Once the government fails to find out the truth in the end, then these monks will become the most standard substitute ghosts, and being bitten to death is the culprit behind all this chaos, and their purpose is to destroy Hanshan Temple......

"Sun Protector, the Buddha can testify, how can the poor monks and others do such a heartbreaking thing? Moreover, they have all clearly found out, if it weren't for you and Xiao Protector to take action in time, I'm afraid that there will be more people who will die this time, and the damage will be even greater. ”

Zhishan said with a face full of worry and grievances: "But they just don't listen, they have to push all the charges on us and other monks, if we can't give a reasonable explanation, in two days, they will take people......"

After Sun Ning listened to his call, the expression on his face changed from doubt.

The world is as black as a crow, and in this world, the thoughts and practices of officials in the world are the same.

They no longer care about right or wrong, but only look at the pros and cons. After such a major incident, the Suzhou officials did not want to find the real mastermind, but tried to give an explanation, first met the requirements of the person who could decide their life and death, and the rest could be put aside.

It's just that Zhishan turned to himself for help, but it still made him feel a little strange, and only after groaning did he ask: "So master, do you mean that you want me to come forward and speak for you?" ”

Thinking that his action of saving people in public has been confirmed by the government, he naturally eliminated his suspicions, and maybe he can say a few words in front of Suzhou officials.

I didn't want the other party to shake my head: "No, the poor monk thinks this can't be done." For today's plan, the only way to do this is to ask Sun Protector to show your means again, take us out of Hanshan Temple, and return to Hangzhou as soon as possible. As long as you go back to Hangzhou, you don't have to worry about anything. ”

When I said this, I regretted it in my heart.

I knew that such a big change would happen, and I shouldn't have gone on an errand in Hanshan Temple that day, wouldn't it be comfortable to live my life in the temple?

Sun Ning looked at this Buddhist monk in amazement, he was really decisive enough, but at the same time, he was too naΓ―ve and didn't take the officials and soldiers seriously.

How can he take dozens of monks away when he is blocked by a battalion of soldiers and horses?

If it was just him and Xiao Qian, it would not be difficult to leave, but it would be unrealistic to bring people again.

But thinking about it again, there is some truth to this idea of Zhishan, obviously he has despaired of the Suzhou government, and he does not think that this matter can find out the truth and find the real culprit in a short time.

So the only way left is to escape.

And with the current situation in the south of the Yangtze River, with their identity, if they really return to Hangzhou, they are really not afraid that someone will dare to go to Yunlin Temple to ask for someone in the future......

"Please also ask the masters to be calm and not impatient, let me think about it carefully, and then give you a satisfactory answer." Sun Ning could only say so perfunctory in the end, it was absolutely impossible for him to take the risk of taking people away.

But he still reassured and promised: "As long as it is in the next day, I will keep you safe." ”

"What does Sun Protector mean by being able to protect us from being wronged? You...... Can you find out the real culprit? Zhishan is not stupid, and he quickly understood the meaning of Sun Ning's words.

"In such a big case, so many people died, everyone must be given an explanation. Since the Suzhou government is not able to handle it, let's check it. Sun Ning said, and then proposed, "So I want to ask the master to help me come forward to talk to the government and give us this opportunity." ”

After hesitating for a moment, Zhishan Cai said with some uncertainty: "Sun Protector, are you sure?" This is not a joke, even the government may not dare to say that it can find out the truth, and the time is limited......"

"This is the safest way to help the masters break the siege, and I will definitely go all out!"

"Good...... Okay, then the poor monk will go to Master Huineng, and he will explain to the government for you. After staring at Sun Ning for a while, Zhishan finally made a concession, only to mention it in the end, hoping that Sun Ning would save them first once he had the opportunity.

After getting Sun Ning's assurance, he reluctantly said goodbye and left, leaving with heavy steps, obviously not optimistic about his future.

It wasn't until there were only two people left in the room that Xiao Qian frowned: "Sun Lang, do you really want to meddle in this matter?" I'm afraid it's a lot of trouble. ”

"I know that this case itself is complex enough to be investigated in a short period of time, and it is bound to be even more difficult to investigate because the forces of all parties are intertwined and involved with each other.

"But I always felt that if I found out about it, it would do me enough good...... The government, the Buddhists, the wealthy families, and the common people ...... Let's ask, what else can include all these many forces and sort out the situation in the entire Jiangnan?

"And even if we can't find anything by then, we can just walk away, can they still catch us and blame us?"

These words made Xiao Qian stunned again, and then reluctantly accepted it, nodding yes.
