Chapter 80: Simple Decisions

The outline of the clouds is blurred in a halo.

Li Chuan put down the mirror.

Pan's mother is a ghost, and the crown of the Mid-Autumn Festival is also a ghost, and the direction of things is becoming more and more ridiculous.

He observed the expressions of the people present one by one.

Pan's mother's sad face was full of resignation and numbness, and she hugged her little granddaughter tightly with both hands, and the little granddaughter was a little uneasy, constantly looking left and right.

The crown's bulging cheekbones shrugged one after another, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't speak.

Elder Wei and Zen Sea Grand Master were talking in a low voice, and they could faintly hear some words of unknown meaning such as Enlightenment and Zen Realm.

Jin Rong bowed his head in contemplation.

Wen Guying was standing with his back to the sun at this time, which made his face and figure look a little blurry, and he took the lead in speaking, "Since the problem has been discovered, it will be easy to deal with later, Elder Wei," he took a few steps in the direction of Elder Wei, "Please check Su Niang and Senior Brother Guan again." ”

Li Chuan finally saw his expression clearly, and there seemed to be determination and relief.

Elder Wei agreed.

Wen Shiying also advised: "Don't be soft-hearted to strange ghosts, in order to find out the problem, some inconvenient means can also be used. ”

Elder Wei said he understood.

She checked Pan Ma and Guan Zhongqiu, and neither of them resisted.

This inspection took a long time, close to an hour, and after the inspection, Elder Wei's figure seemed to have become a little weaker, and his face, which was already bitter and hateful, looked even more gloomy.

She said: "This time I traced their life souls, and did find some problems, Pan Ma's life and soul went back to around 33 years, for a while, the life soul was very unstable, but back to around 38 years, it stabilized again; And the soul of Guan Daoyou, 1 year ago, there was the same unstable situation. ”

"However......" Elder Wei accentuated his tone, "From the perspective of soul cultivation, these are not abnormalities, and there will be many reasons for this," she turned to look at Li Chuan, "The cause and effect of this still needs to be explained by the heirs of the Tattoo Sutra." ”

Li Chuan directly threw the question to Wen Guying, "Daoist Wen, I have already told everything I saw." Now what are you going to do? ”

"What about Brother Li's thoughts?" Wen Daochang asked rhetorically.

Li Chuan had a lot of thoughts in his heart, he glanced at Jin Rong, and Jin Rong nodded to him.

Li Chuan has confidence.

He said, "Please send Pan Mazu Sun and Monk Guan back first." ”

Pan's mother followed the servant away.

After Guan Zhongqiu was halfway through, he broke free and said, "I want to hear how you plan to sentence me." ”

Wen Guying also said: "Let him stay." ”

Li Chuan agreed, he said: "Now it is actually three things. ”

"The first thing is very simple, Brother Guan killed the people of a village in Xialin Village, and he should be beheaded according to the law. The case has been reported to the imperial court, and the verdict has been approved, and it will be beheaded next month. ”

"The second thing is also very simple, the crown monk claims that he killed the stranger. Alien ghosts are not human beings, and may even endanger human beings, so killing alien ghosts is a merit, and naturally there is no need to die. But according to the results of my examination with Elder Wei, Monk Guan and the strange ghost he called are the same existence. He thinks that the stranger deserves to die, and according to his own logic, he deserves to die himself. What do you think, Monk Crown? ”

Guan Zhongqiu lifted her eyelids and said, "Su Niang and her granddaughter should also die." ”

"This is the third thing, we need to investigate how the people of Xia Lin Village became strange ghosts." Li Chuan looked at Wen Guying, "Daoist Wen thinks it's these three things?" ”

Wen Guying nodded: "Brother Li's analysis is very clear. What are you going to do? ”

"There is still a month to go, we will first take Pan Niang and Monk Guan into custody, and then ask someone to take care of the young girl, and in this month, we will try our best to find out the truth about Xialin Village."

"What about a month from now?" Review should be asked.

"Once you find out the truth, you will naturally know what to do; If you can't find the truth......" Li Chuan said with difficulty, "Then, the strange ghost is not a human being, and it is more stable to die." If the young girl is a young girl, she will be sent to the nursery hall and asked the soul cultivator to come and see it every year, and if there is no abnormality after the age of twenty-one, she will not come again after that. If anything, I'll wait until something happens. ”

Jin Rong also spoke up at this time, and said, "Brother Li has already thought very carefully, Daoist Wen, Elder Wei, Master Chanhai, what do you think?" ”

"I don't have a problem, but I'd like to extend it a little longer." He sighed lightly, "Maybe you think that I want to protect Senior Brother Guan, I admit that I do have such thoughts in my heart, but now, I am more concerned about the anomaly in Xialin Village, and what the 'strange ghost' is." ”

He said: "When it comes to the secrets of the Xuanmen, let's find a place to talk about it." Senior Brother Guan, you shouldn't listen to the next words. ”

Guan Zhongqiu said: "I'll go back to prison." ”

Then, in response to the past, Liu joined the army to find a place for them to talk. So Liu Senjun led them through several doors and arrived at a hall.

After that, he stayed at the door from a distance.

After sitting down, Wen Guying said: "I found a record in the file of the Four Divine Palaces that three thousand years ago, someone flew up in Xialin Village, which may be the cause of the abnormality in Xialin Village. ”

"Who is that immortal?" Elder Wei asked.

"I don't know." Review should be answered.

"Don't you know who you are after the ascension?" Elder Wei asked.

"I don't know." Wen Guying still replied, "There is only one entry in the case file of the Four Divine Palace, and the person who recorded it is a native of Gusong Dao, and he sensed that someone had ascended in the southwest direction, and when he passed, the clouds had dispersed, and it should have been a successful ascension, so there was this record." ”

Then he said, "Everyone here knows what happened to the Frost Leaf Gate twenty years ago, right? ”

Everyone nodded.

"The Frost Leaf Gate Technique and burning incense can allow the monks' divine thoughts to directly contemplate the abyss of the heart, which led to their epiphany and crossing the bottleneck in a short time. It is also the reason why the immortals finally shot. ”

Wen Guying's expression was solemn, "Senior Brother Guan once asked the immortals to check if there was a problem with Su Niang, and the immortals didn't see the problem. Therefore, the appearance of the strange ghost this time, I suspect that it is also related to the heart abyss. ”

He begged Li Chuan and said, "Brother Li, can you give me some more time?" ”

After thinking about it, Li Chuan said: "If nothing is found in a month, then I don't think there is any need to delay it any longer, but if there is progress and clues are found, you can continue to track it down, then it will be postponed for another two months, and it cannot be more than two months." ”

Wen Guying immediately agreed, saying, "Thank you, Brother Li." ”

Li Chuan asked again: "Can you tell us why you defend him so much?" ”

"I'm not defending him, it's just that Senior Brother Guan is different from other monks," Wen Guying turned to look at Jin Rong, "At your age, you shouldn't know, your master knows, I originally thought that Gong Wuguang would stop him when he saw Senior Brother Guan's name, but I didn't expect the verdict to pass directly." You only know today that he killed people from one village, and thirty or forty years ago, that is, when the imperial court last suppressed demons, it happened to be when he traveled down the mountain, and he saved more than one village or two people. ”

Jin Rong replied: "The master only asked me to cooperate with Brother Li. ”

Later, he said: "Qin Tianjian does not interfere in politics. ”
