"But speaking of which, the captain of the criminal brigade is good-looking, even if you admit your mistake, you can't blame you." After Duan Ming finished speaking, he looked at Mingde: "Say, are you seeing the captain of the criminal brigade?" ”

"No, no, no!" Mingde shook his head again and again: "Although the two donors are very good-looking, they are not the female benefactors that the little monk said." ”

"You little monk, you can't go down a step." Duan Ming shook his head: "If you say yes, I'll let you go, in the end or not?" ”

"Amitabha, how can a monk lie if he doesn't speak?" Mingde said: "I will be burned alive by the Red Lotus Virgin." ”

"Oh. Then what you little monk said doesn't seem like a lie. Duan Ming said with a smile: "Old Xu, let him go." ”

After Xu Shizhong heard this, he let go of Mingde.

Mingde moved his arms, and then folded his hands and saluted Duan Ming and Xing Qianqiu slightly: "Amitabha, thank you two donors." ”

"He let you go, why are you thanking me?" Xing Qianqiu wondered.

"The little monk is not blind, you are the big official here, if you don't agree, he just said it's not good." Mingde scratched his head: "So naturally I have to thank you." ”

"You little monk has a good eye, I like it." Xing Qianqiu smiled and said, "Okay, you just told Mr. Duan that you really saw the female benefactor?" Where is it? When did you see it? Why come to us? ”

"It was last night, around the time of Youshi, that the little monk saw a female benefactor wearing your clothes, hanging around the Daxiong Treasure Hall, and then returned to the north courtyard." Matilda said.

"Unitary time?" Duan Ming's brows furrowed slightly: "Yesterday's fire was ignited at four o'clock in the unitary hour...... But little Master, how can you be sure that it is a female benefactor? ”

"Definitely a female benefactor!" Mingde swore and said: "That female donor looks like a bodhisattva, it can't be wrong." ”

"Female Bodhisattva." Duan Ming nodded: "Then since you, the little monk, know that the other party is a female benefactor?" Why not shout? Let someone catch her? ”

"Amitabha, my Buddha is compassionate, regardless of men and women, the Fanxing Temple is a wide open door to welcome all people who go to the Buddha. So what about the male or female donors? Why does the little monk need to shout? Matilda said.

"That's just as well." Duan Ming nodded: "However, I still have a question. You little monk sneakily looking for a female benefactor, what do you want? Could it be that you are an evil monk? Trying to do something wrong? ”

"Little monk, little monk......" When Mingde heard this, his face suddenly turned red: "The little monk just saw that the female benefactor was like a bodhisattva, and he felt that he couldn't see enough...... Amitabha, Amitabha...... The two donors, don't tell Master Pure Heart, otherwise the little monk will be beaten again. ”

"Does Pure Heart always beat you?" Xing Qianqiu asked.

"Well, Master Pure Heart's Dharma is profound and very strict. The little monk is also stupid and stupid, and he often makes mistakes, which always makes Master Pure Heart angry......" Mingde said.

"That's good." Duan Ming replied with a smile: "If you answer my two questions truthfully, I won't tell Jingxin." ”

"Really? Donor, excuse me. Mingde's face was happy.

"First, you came to the North Courtyard with the female benefactor last night, did you see anyone with suspicious deeds? Including the masters in your temple? Duan Ming asked.

"This ......" Mingde recalled carefully and said: "The little monk saw Master Mingli peeking around here, and the little monk wanted to go to the ceremony, but he thought of the little monk...... The little monk didn't dare to go. ”

"Reasonable?" Duan Ming frowned, he had never heard of this name.

"Well, we are in charge of affairs in the Ming generation, and we are very close to the two masters of Pure Law and Pure Heart on weekdays." Matilda said.

"Oh." Duan Ming nodded: "Is there anyone else?" ”

"Not really." Matilda shook his head.

"Then the second question, before he died, Jingfa said that he saw the Red Lotus Holy Mother near the Daxiong Treasure Hall around the 20th of July, and the other party was wearing a red dress at that time." Duan Ming's eyes were fixed on Mingde's eyes: "What do you think about this?" ”

"The little monk doesn't know." Mingde blinked his eyes wide and shook his head: "Red Lotus Holy Mother? Red? ”

"Do you think it could be the female benefactor you saw last night?" Duan Ming asked a different question.

"Absolutely not, that female benefactor looks like a bodhisattva, how can it make people think that she is the Virgin of the Red Lotus!" Mingde swore and said.

"Then do you know who in this temple has red clothes?" Duan Ming asked again.

"The donor laughed, we are a temple, how can we ......" Mingde suddenly thought of something, frowned and said: "Amitabha, the monks don't speak, the little monk has indeed heard of something, but he just heard about it, and he can't take it seriously." ”

"It's okay, but it doesn't hurt to say it, it's true or not, we have our own way to prove it." Duan Ming said.

"The little monk once saw Master Mingli go down the mountain to buy and brought back two boxes of things called 'rouge gouache', saying that they were going to give them to Master Pure Heart...... "I don't know anything else." ”

"That's it." Duan Ming nodded, and said to Mingde: "In this case, the little master will go back, and next time you come to my North Courtyard, you can be above board, no need to be sneaky." ”

"Thank you, thank you!" Mingde had a happy look on his face and left the place quickly.

"I'm going to send someone to search for it, and I must find out this 'female donor'!" Xing Qianqiu said in a deep voice.

"Not necessarily." Duan Ming shook his head: "The Spiegel Division has already checked, but I haven't seen this female donor, which means that this female donor has a lot of ability, and I'm afraid I won't gain anything from checking it again." ”

Then Duan Ming looked at Xu Shizhong: "Old Xu, please go and bring that Mingli Master over." ”

"Yes." Xu Shizhong glanced at Xing Qianqiu, and then said.

"Mr. Duan, do you think this fire was set by the master named Mingli?" Xing Qianqiu said in a deep voice.

"No, no, no......" Duan Ming shook his head: "Little Master Mingde said very clearly just now, he saw Mingli outside the courtyard, if he didn't come to the courtyard, how would he set fire?" ”

"Didn't he put it? And you brought him? Xing Qianqiu's brows furrowed slightly.

"Old criminal, you have to be open-minded, you can't use all your wisdom to trick me." Duan Ming patted Xing Qianqiu's shoulder: "This Master Mingli has been watching outside for so long, and he doesn't even know that Mingde has discovered him, so maybe he will find something?" ”

"Do you think Master Mingli may have seen the arsonist?" Xing Qianqiu suddenly realized: "Mr. Duan, you check the reasoning master, and I will go to the pure heart to search secretly." ”

"Hmm." Duan Ming nodded: "Don't go to his room, if you are pure and thoughtful, you will definitely not put such a thing by his side, nor will you put such a thing far away." ”

"Don't worry, I already have a guess in my mind." Xing Qianqiu nodded, and then left......
