137 The old man in the house
An hour ago, the Buddhist hall of Daewooji Temple, which was still very prosperous, has now become devastated.
The dust caused by the collapse of the Buddha statue filled the air and choked the nose.
The incense burners who had gathered in the main hall to recite sutras saw the Buddha statue collapse, and their eyes changed from confusion to surprise, and finally turned into fear.
"The Buddha statue has fallen!"
"The Daewoo Holy Buddha is gone!"
"Someone killed the Buddha!"
A terrible scream spread from inside the hall to the outside.
More and more people began to run outside the temple.
Even the two monks who were in charge of collecting the incense money ran out with fear on their faces.
Sure enough, the so-called poker face is all pretended, and when the fear in his heart is stimulated, who cares about him, he will run first and then talk about it.
The abbot of Daewoo Temple, Zen Master, died completely, and the news that the Buddha statue had been destroyed spread as quickly as it had grown wings throughout Jiazhen.
All the people hid in their homes, locking the doors and windows of their houses, for fear that the executioners who slaughtered the Daewoo Holy Buddha would not be satisfied, and they would be sacrificed to their teeth......
Li Qingshan and the others searched the entire temple and indeed found many women who were under house arrest.
There were even some women who didn't know the situation, thinking that Li Qingshan and they were also monks in the temple.
As soon as I saw them appear, I even took the initiative to post it and invite them to do that.
It can be seen that these women have indeed been brainwashed deeply, and there is no normal etiquette, righteousness and shame in their minds.
Li Qingshan pushed the empty soul into the pile of women and asked him to recite the Diamond Sutra to this group of women to cleanse their hearts.
In this way, Kongming spent a day in a Zen temple, constantly chanting scriptures to the women below.
When Li Qingshan and the others saw the empty darkness again.
The eyes of this thing are very dark, and there is a feeling of emaciation.
At that time, Kong Ming felt the unkind eyes of the two, and quickly explained that he really didn't do anything.
It's just that when I was lecturing to those women, I was constantly tempted by the other party by various means, and I felt a little uncomfortable......
……
One day later, when Li Qingshan and the others wanted to set off for the next town, they met incense customers looking for the lady everywhere.
The incense burner looked eagerly around the street for traces of Downing.
But there is no one on the street at all, and the Daewooji Temple, which was once a city, is now deserted.
When the incense guest knocked on the door to find the lady, after seeing Li Qingshan and them, he hurriedly greeted them.
The first sentence was: "Have you ever seen my wife?" ”
Li Qingshan and the three of them glanced at each other and shook their heads.
Since they went to Daewoo Temple on that day, Li Qingshan and the others had never seen Tang Ning.
But it stands to reason that this woman should have returned to the house of the incense keeping.
Could it be that after she woke up, she didn't look down on the incense keeping, so she left quietly?
But with her hateful look, it doesn't look like she'll leave before something happens to Daewooji Temple.
When I think about it, it seems that things are really strange.
"Why don't you go to your lady's maiden house? Wang Xuanji appropriately put forward an idea.
In his opinion, if Tang Ning hadn't left Jiazhen, he could only go to an old mansion.
Hearing this, a little hesitation flashed on the face of the incense artist: "Mother's family? Isn't my lady a foreigner like you? How do I know about her mother's family? ”
Stranger?
As soon as these words came out, a trace of solemnity flashed between the eyebrows of the three people.
Since they knew that they had been secretly observing each other, the attention of the three of them was always at the highest point.
In order to be able to find some clues when they are secretly observing them.
Just saying that this incense artist suddenly appeared has aroused the suspicion of the three of them.
[I can't see it by looking at qi...... But I can't be sure if he's a liar. The little Taoist priest's voice sounded.
[No need to work hard......]
[You can't see the chaotic power of the three Buddha statues, presumably the strength of the deceptive earth here has advanced to the stage where you can't see the qi technique......]
Li Qingshan answered, patted the incense burner on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "I saw your lady go to the south of the town before, you can go to the south to find out." ”
"Thank you, brother!" The incense burner hugged his fists and smiled: "I've seen Brother Tai twice, and I still don't know Brother Tai's surname?" ”
"Li Qingshan." Li Qingshan responded with a smile.
"Li Qingshan......" The incense guest lowered his head and muttered, as if he was savoring the charm of the name.
The next second, he raised his head and responded with a smile in his eyes: "Cheng, I'll go to find the lady first, I've been alone for thirty years, and I can't let that pretty lady run away." ”
Looking at the back of the incense burner leaving, Li Qingshan narrowed his eyes: [The news of our slaughter of the Daewoo Holy Buddha has already spread throughout Jiazhen...... All the people hid, but he didn't know it......]
[Let's go up and take a look, there must be one person in this incense and Tang Ning's problem. 】
Empty Shen echoed: [Master Li Shi is right, although the expression on the face of the incense artist just now is rich, but there is no fear. 】
[No matter how bold an ordinary person is, when he sees someone who can slaughter the immortal Buddha who has been believed in for a long time in his heart, he will always show a little panic. 】
Wang Xuanji frowned and said, "But the problem is, he doesn't seem to have any signs of deceiving us? 】
"Let's go, let's go to the south." Li Qingshan's words fell, and his figure disappeared in place.
Kong Ming and Wang Xuanji also followed.
……
The old mansion in the south of the town is as dead silent as ever.
Li Qingshan and his entourage were extremely fast, and they came to the old mansion in front of the incense burner.
The door of the old mansion was still locked, and Li Qingshan and the others jumped into the courtyard.
There was no trace of outsiders coming in the courtyard, everything was as it was when Li Qingshan and the others left.
"There are no traces in the courtyard or on the walls, and Downing should not be here."
"Ahem......"
As soon as Wang Xuanji finished speaking, an old man's cough came from the house of the old mansion!
"Ahem! Who is in my yard old man? ”
"Little thief... Ahem... Get out of here... I'm going to report to the police, old man! ”
It was daytime, but the golden sunlight could only fall to the door of the main room.
Li Qingshan said lightly: "I can't feel the breath of a living person inside." ”
"Amitabha, the same is true for poor monks." Kongming clasped his hands together, and a string of Buddhist beads appeared in his tiger's mouth.
"Ahem, ahem... Ahem! ”
The coughing sound in the house became heavier and heavier, as if the old man inside was trying to cough out his lungs.
"Little thief... Ahem... I'll get some water for the old man to drink. ”
