It is exactly sixteen, the full moon is like a mirror, the glow is thousands of miles, flowing in Chang'an at night.

Except for the wine shop, there is loneliness everywhere. How much more is it a temple that is surrounded by walls?

Suddenly, an anxious female voice broke the silence.

"A little further east, Sun Prison, no, it's the other way around." Lan Yin was so anxious that she stomped her feet, turned her head to Cui Yuanzao and said, "Why don't you let me go up to the roof?" ”

Cui Yuanzao sat on the chair, with a tea set next to him, boiling tea slowly, the evening breeze blew on his face, blowing Lan Yin's whispered curses, but this did not prevent Cui Yuanzao from feeling quite comfortable at the moment.

"You let him adjust slowly, and don't be in a hurry, come, have a cup of tea."

Lan Yin turned back from the window and said helplessly: "This Sun Prison Cheng looks very smart, but in fact, his hands are very clumsy, and he can't pretend to be a mirror." You just said, what is this mirror called? ”

Lan Yin and Sun Mao were not on good terms, Cui Yuanzao was happy to see it, and he couldn't wait for them to meet him from now on, so he didn't persuade him, and only replied: "Bump mirror." Light can be focused or dispersed. ”

Lan Yin didn't understand it, and asked again: "You say, is it a ghost created by this thing?" In fact, there are no ghosts in this world? ”

"I don't know if there are any ghosts in this world, but this time the ghosts are fake anyway." Cui Yuanzao said unhurriedly.

"Cui Pingshi, it's ready." Sun Mao shouted from the rooftop.

"Got it, put out the candle." Cui Yuanzao spoke.

Suddenly, the East Zen Courtyard was pitch black, except for the shadow of the ghost on the wall, swaying from time to time, adding a strange atmosphere to the hideous mural.

"W-how?" Lan Yin couldn't help but exclaim.

"Mozi has elaborated on this phenomenon in his book The Book of Ink, and I will just extend it a little more." Cui Yuanzao said.

When Cui Yuanzao saw the small hole and listened to Xiao Shami talk about the moonlight, such a device appeared in his mind, using a concave and convex mirror to gather light, adjust the angle, so that the light can be refracted or reflected, and then pass through the hole to form an upside-down picture on the wall.

"It's incredible." Lan Yin looked at the wall in a daze, "Lu Qian was scared to death by this." ”

Cui Yuanzao frowned, this thing can really scare people to death?

"The person who escaped that day must have taken the key paper cut-outs or cloth in addition to the concave mirror?" Only then can the killer control what exactly is projected onto the mural.

"Your concave and convex mirror is rare, whoever has this thing is the murderer, right?" Lane Road.

"It's really rare, my uncle's handful was picked up from Hu Shang in Xishi, and it's worth a lot of money."

"How many?"

"Five thousand gold."

Lan Yin said at first glance, you must know that one gold can be exchanged for ten guan, and five thousand gold can be exchanged for fifty thousand guan, which requires a whole house to install.

"This murderer spent 50,000 guan to kill Lu Qian, so he might as well invite an assassin, it won't cost 1,000 guan."

Lan Yin secretly thought that if she knew that Lu Qian's life was so valuable, she should have asked Lu Qian for more protection money.

Cui Yuanzao looked at the strange shadows on the wall, and couldn't help but fall into deep thought, who would have such a thing as a concave and convex mirror? Who has the financial resources? Why did you go to such great lengths to kill Lu Qian?

"Cui Pingshi, do you want to find someone to go to the West Market and ask, who has bought this kind of mirror recently?" Sun Mao had already jumped off the roof and asked diligently.

Cui Yuanzao nodded, "Although there is not much hope, you may be able to go to the Treasure Pavilion in the West Market and find a Hu man named An Naijin to ask." ”

"Yes."

"Let's go to sleep first, and I'll go back tomorrow morning when the door opens." Cui Yuanzao said.

———

At this time, it was already the middle of the moon, the door had already been closed, and it was impossible to return to the house, the abbot master arranged a wing room for them, Cui Yuanzao wanted to go directly, but Lan Yin pulled his sleeve.

"Shall I sleep with you?"

"Huh? Naturally not, the Zen master arranged another room for you. ”

"No, I'm going to sleep with you."

Cui Yuanzao turned his head in shock and looked at Lan Yin, trying to see the expression on her face, does this girl know what she is talking about?

Lan Yin's eyes were very firm, he was careless at the beginning, Lu Qian died inexplicably, and now what is wrong with this Zhao Jinggong Temple is still unknown, how can he live here with confidence?

"Yang Niangzi doesn't have to be like this. I can protect myself. Cui Yuanzao understood what Lan Yin was worried about as soon as he thought about it.

"How can you protect yourself with the way the wind blows?"

Cui Yuanzao was speechless, he was really not that weak.

"So be it." Lan Yin did not accept Cui Yuanzao's rebuttal and followed him all the way into the room.

Cui Yuanzao didn't push or pull, so he could only watch Lan Yin sit on the chair naked.

Lingcong was half a step behind them, watching them walk into the room together, the corners of his mouth almost grinning behind his ears, in order not to disturb them, Lingcong made the bad people retreat a hundred meters away.

Cui Yuanzao felt extremely uncomfortable, originally he should have rinsed his mouth and washed his face on the couch at this time, but at this time he could only pretend to sit by the bookcase.

"Mrs. Yang, it's so late, is it okay to replace?" Cui Yuanzao asked tentatively, "Why don't you go to the next room?" ”

"Cui Pingshi doesn't have to think about me, where can't the children of the rivers and lakes sleep, you sleep with yours."

Cui Yuanzao felt that there were nails on the chair, and it was difficult to sit still, and after a while, Cui Yuanzao saw that Lan Yin was still meditating there with his eyes closed, so he had to stand up lightly and prepare to go to the middle of the room.

But others were lying on the bed, but their hearts were hanging outside, outside the trance curtain, the shadow was always there, and Cui Yuanzao didn't know why his heart was really settled.

After losing his wife at the age of six, A-Niang remarried, except for Aunt Rou, he never got such a gentle wait.

Suddenly, the shadow stood up and gently and skillfully lifted the curtain and came to him, Cui Yuanzao hurriedly closed his eyes, but his heart couldn't help but beat wildly.

"Cui Yuanzao, Cui Yuanzao, wake up." Lan Yin whispered in Cui Yuanzao's ear.

"What's wrong?" Cui Yuanzao pretended to wake up from his sleep, but his mouth was covered by a pair of soft hands, he only felt a little warmth on his lips on that hand, and suddenly his face burned badly, what did she want to do?

"Shhhh

"Cui Lang, let the slave family untie your clothes, so you can fall asleep."

Cui Yuanzao looked at the wardrobe in shock, he didn't hear any sound at all, how did Lan Yin know that there was someone inside? Can she hear his heartbeat?

"Lady, what a slippery hand." Cui Yuanzao knew what to say to confuse the enemy, but he somehow came up with this sentence, and he immediately panicked.

Lan Yin staggered under his feet, stabilized again, turned his head and bared his teeth at Cui Yuanzao, and continued to move gently to the cabinet door like a cat, and suddenly, "Huh-" opened the cabinet door.

A little novice "Gollum-dong" fell out of the cabinet door.

"Who are you?" Lan Yin pointed at the little novice and said.

"Heroine spare her life! My name is Mingxin, and I clean the courtyard. When I was cleaning today, I wanted to be lazy for a while, so I hid in the closet and fell asleep, but I didn't expect to sleep until now, and I didn't dare to come out when I heard someone in the room. Heroine spare her life! Little Shami sat on his knees, crying.

"How can it be such a coincidence? Say, Who told you to come? Lan Yin sent the sword out a few more points.

"No one commanded you! Woooooooo ”

Cui Yuanzao stood up, pulled Xiao Shami up, pressed Lan Yin's hand, and said, "Forget it, it's just a child, don't worry about him." ”

"Kid? Don't care? Have you been kicked in the head by a donkey? Quietly hiding in the closet, isn't it an ulterior motive? You're just going to let him go? Lan Yin was shocked.

Cui Yuanzao was noncommittal, and said to the little novice: "Go back." ”

Lan Yin huffed and watched as Xiao Shami left the room, and did not make a move after all.

Cui Yuanzao smiled and invited Lan Yin to the couch, "Listen to me, even if you force him to ask him now, he talks nonsense to you, you can't tell the difference, it's better to let him go, he always has to go back to the mastermind behind the scenes, follow him, there will always be a day when the truth will come out, you can't rush to solve the case, you rest first, it's late at night." ”

Lan Yin was stunned by Cui Yuanzao's confusion, thinking that he was right for a while, and feeling that something was wrong for a while, and when she realized it, she found that she was already lying on the bed.

"What are you doing?" At this time, Lan Yin realized that something was wrong.

"Look, you just sleep here, and I'm sleeping on the couch by the window, so that the bad guy thinks it's me lying on the bed, and if he really wants to sneak attack me, won't you catch it?"

Lan Yin nodded, and said as if it was reasonable, "Then so be it, I'll find you a blanket." ”

Cui Yuanzao took the blanket handed over by Lan Yin, smiled, watched her turn off the light, lay down, and then lay down on the couch and closed her eyes, although tonight is estimated to be a sleepless night, but at least now she can finally lie down and sleep.

After a while, he heard Lan Yin's breathing growing, and he knew she was asleep.

Pushing open the window, the moonlight came in, sprinkled in front of the couch, the wind blew the falling flowers in front of the court, and the shadows also fell on the ground and the wall.

Cui Yuanzao remembered the painting "Hell Change" again, what picture did the murderer let Lu Qian see with a concave and convex mirror? Why can it scare people to death?

And who has a concave-convex mirror, and he also needs to know how to use it.

What are the secrets in Zhao Jinggong Temple? Who sent the little novice? And who was the man who escaped from Lan Yin?

Suddenly, Lan Yin's voice said, "Where to escape, let Cui Yuanzao go." "Exploded in the room.

Cui Yuanzao hurriedly jumped up, but everything was quiet again, he looked at the bed, Lan Yin was asleep, still punching and kicking, it seemed that she was dreaming, this girl was still protecting him in her dream, but she was really dead-eyed.

"Cui Pingshi, I saved you, at least give me two thousand, right? Hahaha......" Lan Yin grunted again.

Cui Yuanzao shook her head, it seems that she works so hard for money, while being funny, she is a little inexplicably distressed, is she very short of money?

Patrolling her face, she did not suffer from wind and frost, but was naïve, who was she? What is the relationship with Yang Niangzi?

His eyes fell on her red lips, and he couldn't help but wonder if the touch of those lips was like the petals of a flower that had just fallen on his palm.

Cui Yuanzao was frightened for a while, hurriedly gathered his mind, slowly walked out the door, and after walking for a hundred meters, Lingcong came and stood in front of him.

"Lang Jun, that little novice has gone to see the abbot."
