Chapter 324 Murder (Asking for a Subscription and Asking for a Monthly Pass)
After telling the ugly and ugly, let it be careful, and she was ready to go back to the front, she was not going to enter the Great Xiangguo Temple, she had already seen it with her divine sense, and she didn't burn incense, so it was not interesting to go shopping alone.
And now that there is no one inside, if she goes in and doesn't burn incense, it is estimated that the monks inside will look at her and will be very embarrassed.
Now it's not like the later generations, the temples have become attractions, you can go in casually when you buy a ticket, now they are all very devout worshiping Buddha, if you go in and wander around, people will think that she is not sincere, there is a suspicion of blasphemy of the place of Buddhism.
I was about to go straight back to the front door, and as soon as I walked around the corner, I heard the voices of two little novices.
Tilt Yan stopped and stood by the wall to poke her sense out.
Across the wall from her was a courtyard with a row of houses, almost the same size, which was supposed to be where the monks lived.
The two novices were fetching water from the well in the courtyard at this time, and there were two large wooden basins on the ground next to them, and there were many clothes in them, all of which were yellow-colored, which should have been changed by the monks.
I didn't expect that there were monks in this temple who specialized in washing clothes, and she thought that there were only monks who specialized in cooking.
I only heard one of the thinner ones say: "Senior Brother Questioning said that there will be a plum market in the city on the first day of next month, and it is estimated that there will be a lot of people in our temple, and many people will come from afar, and they will definitely come to Daxiangguo Temple to worship." β
The fat one nodded, sighed and said: "Hey~ We'll be busy again, every time there are pilgrims from afar, they will stay in the temple for a few days, and then we will not only have to wash a lot of clothes, but also be called to help wash vegetables and deliver food, it's annoying to think about." β
"Shh~ You be quiet, let the master hear you complain, and I'm going to punish you for sweeping the thatched house again."
Thin Shami hurriedly stopped him.
Fat Shami looked nervously left and right, and was relieved to see that only the two of them had no one else.
He took the bucket out of the well, poured it into the wooden basin, and said, "When do you think we can go to the front hall to be a guest monk like Senior Brother Question?" After washing and scrubbing every day, my hands are cracked. β
Thin Shami stopped rubbing his clothes, raised his hand in front of his eyes and looked at it, and found that his hands were purple from the ice water, although there was no crack, it was estimated that it was not far away.
"Hey~ Don't think about it, who made us look bad, the monk is the faΓ§ade of the temple, and we can only stay in the backyard or kitchen."
Fat Shami threw the bucket into the well with all his might, as if he was venting, "If I didn't know where my biological father and mother were, I really wanted to be vulgar, and go to the shop to be a guy and get paid, it's much better than this day when I didn't have a future." β
The thin novice glanced at him, put his hand into the basin again, and continued to wash his clothes, "Don't say this in the future, we are all orphans that no one wants, if it wasn't for the temple to take us in, maybe we would have died a long time ago."
I heard that far away from the capital, there are still many people who are not well fed and clothed, so at least we don't have to worry about eating and drinking. β
"I know, it's just whining with you, and I won't say it to others."
Fat Shami shook the rope in his hand, waited for the bucket to fill up with water, and began to pour the rope upwards, and then poured the water into the basin until the wooden basin was full.
"By the way, do you know when the weirdo who borrowed from the West Wing left? I haven't seen anyone in two days. β
Thin Shami shook his head, "I don't know, I haven't paid attention to him, I've been here for two or three months, I guess I'm leaving." β
Fat Shami frowned, "I always feel that something is wrong, although that man never eats in the temple, he also goes out every day, but I haven't seen him since the day before yesterday."
If he leaves, he will definitely let us clean up the wings, and it will be for other pilgrims to live in on the first day of junior high school, but no one in our courtyard has cleaned up, do you think something will happen? β
When the thin novice heard him say this, he also felt that there was something wrong, wrung the clothes in his hand into the water, threw them into another basin, wiped his hands on his body, stood up, and said:
"Let's go and see, if something really happens to someone, we should report it to the master as soon as possible."
If something really happens in the temple, it will not be good for them, once there is a life, the government will definitely come to investigate, even if the temple is not closed, it will not let people enter and exit at will, then they will also be questioned.
The two put down their work and hurried out of the courtyard to the west.
Qian Yan raised her eyebrows, at first she heard the two of them complaining about homely things, and she thought it was quite interesting, so she listened to it, but she didn't expect to hear such a thing.
She reached out to the west step by step, but there was a row of side rooms there, and she didn't know which one it was, so she could only start from the beginning and look for them one by one.
The result was not as fast as the two little novices, and after she found three or four wings, the two small novices had already stopped at the door of the sixth wing.
There is no need to look for it now, Qian Yan directly probed her divine sense into the side room, and then found a corpse lying upright on the bed, and after a closer look, she almost vomited out her lunch.
It's not that the corpse is rotten, after all, it's winter, and even if it dies for two days, it won't be to the extent of decay.
Instead, the corpse's chest had been cut open, and it was so wide that the internal organs had been hollowed out.
And looking at the hideous and painful expression on his face, it was obvious that he was dissected alive, which was too scary.
At this time, two small novices also started knocking on the door outside.
The door was tied from the inside, and the little novice first pushed it, but before he could open it, he began to knock.
After knocking for a while, seeing that there had been no movement inside, the two looked at each other.
Apparently they all found something unusual, if a person leaves, he will not tie the door from the inside, and he must not go through the window, and the window is also closed.
Fat Shami took two steps back, and was about to bang on the door, but was stopped by Skinny Shami.
"Senior brother, don't bump into it first, you go and inform the master first, I don't know what the situation is, if something happens, the two of us can't be the master."
Fat Shami thought about it, so he nodded and turned his head and ran forward.
Don't look at him fat, his speed is quite fast, so needless to say, the matter of finding someone fell on him.
The thin novice stood guard at the door of the chamber and did not leave, knocking on the door twice every once in a while, and then put his ear to the door to listen to the sound inside.
In case the other party is just sick and can't get out of bed, as long as the other party can make a little sound, it can also prove that the person is still alive.
It is said that even if a person is sick, he will not starve to death after only two days, and there is water in the wing, as long as there is water, it should be no problem to hold on for a few days.
When the fat novice called the three monks, he didn't hear any movement inside.
Among the three monks, two were slightly older than them, twenty or thirty years old, and an old monk in their forties and fifties, who should be their master.
The old monk did not have a robe on his body, so he should not be the abbot of the Great Xiangguo Temple, but probably the management.
He had obviously heard the fat novice explain the situation before he came, so he didn't ask again after he came, and directly instructed them to slam the door open.
When the door opened, the two older monks went inside, and then it was "Ah! A loud scream.
Immediately afterwards, the three people behind also rushed in, and they were shocked when they saw the situation inside.
Seeing this, she didn't look any further, she had better leave quickly, saving herself from becoming a suspect for a while.
Although the person looked like he had been dead for two days, who could say for sure about this thing, she was not on the first day of junior high school and had not reached fifteen, and it was more suspicious to wander outside without entering the temple.
Tilt Yan walked forward quickly, by the way, she also got rid of her footprints, just walked by the wall, no one stepped on this side, only her, fortunately there was no snow here, and the ground was frozen very hard, so if you don't look carefully, it's not good to see any traces.
But what if, if someone came to investigate, she could see it, so she still held a bundle of grass in her hand and swept it gently as she walked.
They quickly walked to the open space where the carriage was parked, and fortunately, they parked the car far away from the entrance of the temple.
Not only was there a carriage parked there, but there were two other cars parked next to it, and I don't know if it was the one who delivered the things twice or the pilgrim who lived in it, not alone, it was not so abrupt.
Qian Yan walked to the carriage and said to the coachman: "Uncle Liu, let's leave quickly, there seems to be an accident in the temple." β
Uncle Liu hurriedly helped her into the carriage, and then drove the car on the road without asking anything.
As a chauffeur in the Prince's Mansion, he has undergone special training, not only is he good, but he also knows not to be so curious.
What the master wants to do, he doesn't need to say anything to them, he himself will observe what he says, since Qian Yan said to leave quickly, then there is no need to say more, just leave quickly.
As for whether Qian Yan did something, even if he doubted it, he wouldn't say anything, this was a coquettish guest in the Prince's Mansion, even if he did something, he could only help cover it, and he could still distinguish between inside and outside.
Of course, if it is related to the second prince, he must choose the second prince, and that is his real master.
Tilt Yan sat in the car, and while continuing to look at the wing, she sent a voice to the ugly ugly, telling it what was happening on it, and telling it to pay attention.
Now she is going to report to the abbot, and she doesn't know what to do next, and she probably won't be able to see the situation here when she returns to the city, and she is still more curious about the follow-up.
Ugly replied to her, "Got it." β
Being able to hear the ugly echo made Qian Yan feel a little more relieved, it seemed that there was really no danger in the cave.
After going down the mountain, she went back to the prince's mansion directly, and she was not in the mood to wander outside.
When I first arrived at the door, I happened to meet Zhao Rixin, who also came back from outside.
He went out to run errands this time, and it was basically successful, so his father sent him another errand.
There is also the person who assassinated before, he also has to follow up, but it is still under investigation and has been handed over to Dali Temple.
As for when the results will come out, I don't know, after all, the live mouth who was caught by them put on all the torture instruments and didn't speak.
Now I am afraid of killing someone, so I can only stop the torture and am treating the other party, but there are people watching at any time, because the other party wants to kill himself and has no chance.
As for the three people who followed them before, Chen Huanqing sent people over and didn't find them, and he also checked the inns in some towns along the road, but they didn't find anything.
You can't go door-to-door to find it, you can only do it first.
Zhao Rixin saw that Qian Yan came back in a hurry, and Uncle Liu's face was also a little wrong, at least it was not like the relaxed expression when he came back from shopping, so he didn't say much at the door, and went back home with them directly.
When he got to the front hall and sat down, he asked Qianyan what was going on.
Qian Yan didn't hide it from him, and told him about it, of course, her statement was that the reason why she went to Daxiangguo Temple was because Xue Minghua rushed to the evil qi there, and she found out because she knew some life techniques, so she went to Daxiangguo Temple to see if there was any way to crack it.
Then he found the small courtyard, and set up a formation in the small courtyard to eliminate evil, and then when he walked back, he heard about the murder.
This process makes perfect sense, but it just hides the ugliness.
The small courtyard does exist, and the evil qi inside has indeed been dispelled.
It was the first time Zhao Rixin had heard of such a supernatural thing, and he listened to it with relish, and did not interject until Qian Yan talked about the murder case, and his expression returned to normal.
"I didn't expect there to be a murder in the Great Xiangguo Temple, I heard my father say that the monks in the Great Xiangguo Temple are all martial arts, and it should be impossible for ordinary people to go inside and kill people silently and leave, which is very unusual."
Qian Yan was a little surprised, didn't she say that the monks of Shaolin Temple are all strong in martial arts? Could it be that in ancient times, monks had to have martial arts? Is this standard?
Qian Yan didn't tell the person's death, after all, she didn't go in, knowing the other party's death was very abnormal, saying that someone was killed, and it can also be said that she heard it through the wall, and people couldn't shout out the death.
In case Zhao Rixin is curious and asks about this case, and no one has said it when asked, then she is not exposed.
After saying this, Zhao Rixin said to Qian Yan: "If you go to Aunt Xue tomorrow, I will go with you to have a look, but I didn't expect Aunt Xue to be unwell, and I can't complain that I haven't entered the palace to talk to my mother for the past few days."
My queen mother thought that she was busy with affairs in the house and had no time to enter the palace, so she was embarrassed to let people call, but she missed the truth.
Qian Yan nodded, "Okay, I'll go and see if it works tomorrow." β
The evil qi in her body has been removed, as long as she recuperates, it doesn't hurt to go and see it again, she can be more assured.
The two parted after a few more words, and Qian Yan went back directly to wash and change clothes, after all, after running outside for a day, she ran to the back of the temple and drilled into the woods, even if she didn't get any dead leaves, there was a lot of dust on her body.
She has a slight cleanliness fetish, and it will be very uncomfortable if she doesn't change her clothes.
It just so happened that the clothes I washed yesterday had already dried, not that I couldn't wear other clothes, but I put a few sets of clothes in the carriage when I came, just to change them.
Since two sets of clothes are enough to change, there is no need to take so many heads out to wear, and these two sets are more comfortable to wear. (End of chapter)
