A moment later, Duan Ming was looking at the transcripts of the three Fa Wu when Xu Shizhong knocked on the door and walked in.

And with Xu Shizhong, there is also a monk about fifteen years old, this monk is slightly fat, with a fleshy face, and at first glance, he has eaten a lot of delicious food on weekdays.

"Hehe, donor, no, no, official, you are looking for a little monk to come here, what's the matter?" Monk Mingli smiled all over his face and bowed to Duan Ming to the end.

"Master Mingli? You're not wrong with your name. Duan Ming put down the transcript in his hand and said with a smile: "Sure enough, it's reasonable." ”

"Amitabha, the official is smiling, smiling." Monk Mingli touched his head and said.

"Since Master Mingli is so sensible." Duan Ming slowly stood up: "Then you can tell me, what do you have to tell me?" ”

"Huh?" Mingli's face froze: "Didn't you summon the little monk here......

"I'm here to tell me something, can't I?" Duan Ming interrupted directly, and as he spoke, his fingers lightly tapped the transcript on the table: "What you did yourself, do you want me to ask you again?" ”

"Plop!" As soon as he heard Duan Ming's words, Mingli's face suddenly changed, and he bent his knees and fell directly to the ground: "Official, official, the little monk is wronged." ”

"Oh." Duan Ming replied lightly: "Let's talk about it." ”

"Official." Mingli's gaze swept over the table, gritted his teeth and said: "The little monk is in charge of the purchase and inspection in the temple, and the little monk saw that there was a problem with the gold paint that the Golden Buddha was going to smear, and he wanted to report it, but they, they threatened the little monk, and the little monk didn't dare to report it." ”

"What kind of threats?" Duan Ming snorted coldly: "Those things, why don't people use them to threaten me!" ”

"This, this...... The little monk didn't dare to hide it. Mingli gritted his teeth: "Those people did give the little monk one, no, no, two, two pieces of gold!" But he did threaten the little monk, saying that if the little monk reported the matter, the gold would be used as the money for the little monk to buy the coffin......"

"Two pieces of gold to buy a coffin, you won't lose anything." Duan Ming sneered: "What about the rest?" Are they all buried as your funeral offerings? ”

"No, no......" Mingli was even more panicked, and his forehead was covered with cold sweat: "The rest, of course, the rest is to honor you." ”

"In a moment you will go back and fetch it and bring it to me. If you let me know that you have left even one grain of sand, you know the consequences. Duan Ming said in a deep voice.

"It's nature, it's nature." Mingli nodded repeatedly.

"Who is threatening you? You know what? Duan Ming asked, "Where can I find them?" ”

"This, the little monk doesn't know. They came from outside, and the little monk had never seen them. Mingli said.

"Then you looked outside the North Courtyard for a long time yesterday, did you see anyone suspicious?" Duan Ming's voice changed and asked in a deep voice.

"I ......" Mingli's face changed, and then he smiled bitterly: "The official is really as wise as a torch, and he can't hide anything from you." ”

"Say it." Duan Ming said again.

"The little monk has been watching for a long time, but he has never seen anyone with suspicious deeds." Mingli shook his head: "Wait, it seems that there is an official who is acting a little suspicious......"

"Before and after unitary time?" Duan Ming said again.

"That's right, it's around the unitary time!" Mingli nodded.

"Well, I don't have anything to ask now, you can go." Duan Ming pondered slightly: "After I go back, I will send the things immediately." If I have a problem in the future, you must be on call. ”

"Thank you, thank you, thank you!" Mingli hurriedly said, and then walked out in a panic.

"Mr. Duan, are you going to let him go?" After Xu Shizhong saw Mingli leaving, he came to Duan Ming's side and asked.

"Or else? Leave him for lunch? Duan Ming smiled: "He must still have something to hide, but he will definitely not say it at this moment." ”

"I won't believe him if I'm punished." Xu Shizhong said.

"How can it be that simple?" Duan Ming sighed and looked to the east: "The Immortal Sect is still here, can you really torture these monks?" Besides, I just wanted to ask about rouge gouache, but I never thought that I would ask the question of gold paint, which can be regarded as an unexpected gain. ”

"This ......" Xu Shizhong gritted his teeth and sighed.

Indeed, with the Immortal Sect here, they have to be more careful in what they do.

Half an hour later, Mingde came back again, handed over the entire four pieces of gold to Duan Ming, and then left.

After another moment, Xing Qianqiu also returned.

"Found it!" Xing Qianqiu saw Duan Ming and said with a smile: "This pure heart is cunning, and he actually hid the red dress behind the abbot's room!" ”

"Did anyone see it when you went to look for this?" Duan Ming asked.

"No, I didn't take out the red dress either." Xing Qianqiu shook his head: "But I have already sent someone to secretly target the pure heart." ”

"Okay." Duan Ming nodded: "If you can find the red dress, there is no way to prove that it is worn by a pure heart." Even if it can be proved that it was worn by a pure heart, there is no way to prove that the fire in the Daxiong Treasure Hall was set by him. ”

"That's what I thought too." Xing Qianqiu nodded: "If there is no evidence, it will definitely not be possible to stop the mouth of the Lord of the Forgotten Machine Hall based on speculation alone." ”

"Old Torture." Duan Ming looked at Xing Qianqiu: "I just read the transcripts of the three Fa Wu, they said that there was a dispute between the Pure Law and the Pure Heart, do you know why?" ”

"I just sent someone to investigate, it seems to be because of a little thing." Xing Qianqiu said: "The monks in the temple don't know too well, it is said that it is for a piece of jade pendant. ”

"Jade pendant?" Duan Ming frowned: "What kind of jade pendant?" ”

"Then I don't know, but the monks heard the pure Dharma shouting: 'This jade pendant is clearly for me, if you don't give it back to me, I will definitely make you look good!' Xing Qianqiu said.

"Hmm." Duan Ming nodded: "Then presumably, when I searched before, I didn't find this jade pendant." ”

"Indeed." Xing Qianqiu nodded: "I also went to ask Jingxin, but Jingxin said that there was no such thing, let alone any jade pendant." ”

"Okay." Duan Ming thought for a moment, and then said to Xing Qianqiu: "Let's go to the ruins of the morgue now, I always feel that we have something missing." ”

Then Duan Ming and Xing Qianqiu came to the morgue together and searched carefully.

Duan Ming even took a wooden stick and gently tapped every piece of ground to see if there were any secret passages, but he found nothing.

However, just when Duan Ming was about to give up, he suddenly found a charred piece of iron in a corner of the ruins.

"This is ......" Duan Ming picked up the iron piece, his eyes narrowed slightly.

"What's wrong?" Xing Qianqiu came to Duan Ming's side.

"It's fine, it's just a little weird." Duan Ming wrapped the iron piece in a cloth, and then said, "Did you find anything?" ”

"Nope." Xing Qianqiu also sighed.

"Okay, then I'll go back to sleep, and I'll talk about it tomorrow." After speaking, Duan Ming left without looking back......
