Chapter 41: Kongo Temple
"What's the specific situation, fourth brother?"
Zhang Chuyi followed Xu Si and Ren Fei to the side of the road and asked curiously.
"Last night, a group of people came into the Lingyin Temple, knocked out the warrior monks who were keeping vigil, and turned the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion upside down."
Xu Si said with a smile on his face: "It stands to reason that this kind of thing should be handled by the Lingyin Temple itself, but the company is now committed to improving its reputation in the Inhuman World, so it is still willing to provide some help to these famous sects within its capacity." β
"Does the company care about that?" Zhang Chuyi looked suspicious.
"In short, this is Zhao Dong's instructions." Xu Si pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled, "If the abbot's martial arts are not abolished, where does such a small person need the company to come forward."
But now, the abbot of Jiekong has lost all his martial arts, and the eldest disciple Baowen has just gone out again, and the other people in the temple are average, so the abbot of Jiekong has found King Kong Temple to help.
However, Zhao Dong was not at ease, so he asked us to stay here for a few nights to see if there was anything we could do to help. β
"I see." Zhang Chuyi nodded, and then said suspiciously: "No, didn't you say that there was a case in the city, Lingyin Temple is outside the city." β
"I didn't say there was only one case." Xu Si spread his hands innocently, "The case in the city is related to the King Kong Temple I just said, originally Lao Dou has been watching, but it seems that the situation has become more serious recently, just now we are here, Zhao Dong asked us to go to the King Kong Temple to help now." β
Zhang Chuyi smiled helplessly: "How do you feel that we have become firefighters?" β
"Isn't that what the company is all about?" Ren Fei took off the necklace in his hand, "You can get through everything, you have to go through wherever you are in trouble, it doesn't matter if you are on vacation or not, you have to go immediately if there is a situation." β
In this way, after the three of them descended the mountain, they immediately drove back to the city.
It is said to be an urban area, but in fact, it is not far from the suburbs, and it belongs to the junction of the two.
However, urban and suburban development compensation are two different concepts, so anyone who can get along with the urban area will not say that they are suburban, and no one will recognize it.
Most of the houses here are old, and the mottled gray and yellow in the field of vision is the main color, giving people the texture of faded old photos.
Although it is far less prosperous than the vibrant city, after passing through a few tiled houses with swallow's nests, you can see the magnificent Kongoji Temple.
Although Zhang Chuyi had never entered the Lingyin Temple, just looking at the faΓ§ade of the three entrances and three exits, he felt that the area of the King Kong Temple was at least twice that of the Lingyin Temple!
"What a magnificent Buddhist temple, I've never heard of such a big temple here." Ren Fei looked up at the ochre-red gate in front of him and said suspiciously.
"King Kong Temple is a Buddhist temple built 15 years ago, and it is said to be a Sino-foreign joint venture, so the scale is very large." Xu Si looked down at Baidu Encyclopedia and explained: "King Kong Temple used to be just a nameless small temple, and there were only five or six monks in the temple.
Later, because of the investment of several wealthy people, the King Kong Temple was also a shotgun for a gun, and it became the most luxurious Buddhist temple within a radius of 100 miles, and the prosperity of incense was second only to the Lingyin Temple of Feilai Peak.
The abbot of Vajra Temple, who has lived abroad for several years, is not only a high-IQ returnee, but also a master of profound Buddhism, and it is under his leadership that Vajra Temple has today's scale and fame. β
After talking about the introduction of the temple, Xu Si couldn't help but sigh: "Sure enough, a high degree is different, and being a monk can also be a good mix." β
So saying, he grabbed the bronze knocker and knocked on the door.
After waiting for a while, a gap opened in the door in a dull whining sound, and a monk wearing a gray monk's robe walked out, clasped his hands and said: "Amitabha, today the Vajra Temple is closed and the incense is stopped, please go back, donors." β
"We're all connected." Xu Si took out his staff ID, "I received an order to come and investigate the case of the disappearance of the disciples of the King Kong Temple." β
"It turned out to be a valued customer of the company." The monk hurriedly gave way: "Please come in quickly, the abbot has been waiting for you for a long time." β
The three of them rushed in and followed the monk into the side courtyard.
In the meditation hall, Dou Le was talking with a monk in a luxurious robe.
This monk looked to be around forty years old, and at the same time, his eyebrows were kind, but there was a slight sadness between his eyebrows.
"Old Dou!" As soon as Xu Si stepped into the meditation hall, he greeted him happily.
"Xiao Xu, Xiao Fei." Dou Le's expression was overjoyed when he saw someone coming, and he stood up and said, "You two came just in time, I was still talking to Abbot Zhengjue about you just now." β
"Amitabha." Zhengjue got up and saluted, "The poor monk is called Zhengjue, and I have seen two donors. β
"Abbot Zhengjue, you are too polite." Xu Si said with a smile, "This time, we are here to solve the problem, and we must find out the truth for your temple." β
"Then please leave it to you, the poor monk will arrange for the incense soup kitchen to prepare a meal for you." Zhengjue lowered his eyebrows, then turned away.
After waiting for only the company's own people to be left in the meditation hall, Xu Si walked to Dou Le's side: "Old Dou, what is the specific situation?" β
"A total of five disciples disappeared in three days." Dou Le took a puff of stuffy cigarette and said in a deep voice: "Two of the disciples are aliens, and their martial arts are not low, they can quietly make these five people disappear, and the ability of the person who started it is not small." β
"I just came from Lingyin Temple, and there was something wrong there, and the Scripture Pavilion was lifted." Xu Si pulled a futon and sat down, and said with an expressionless expression: "You say, could this be done by a force?" The purpose is to take revenge on Buddhism. β
"I haven't heard that Buddhism has had any grudges with anyone recently." Dou Le took a deep breath with a sad face, and sighed and exhaled a thick cloud of smoke.
"Then send more people to keep an eye on the neighborhood, there will definitely be a time for recidivism." Ren Fei leaned against the door, raised his hand slightly, and waved away the second-hand smoke that drifted in front of him.
"That's all there is to it." Dou Le threw the cigarette butt to the ground, stepped on it with his pointed scalp shoes and crushed it, and then put his hands in his pockets and said: "I feel that this case is not simple, it is likely to be an attack on Buddhism."
If the situation continues to deteriorate, the Shaolin Temple will have to be notified. β
At this point, the meditation hall fell silent for a while.
The three persons in charge spoke, and Zhang Chuyi, as the assistant to the person in charge, did not have any part to interject.
The main two cases this time have no clues at all, and I don't know where to analyze them.
So after the only useful information was exchanged, Xu Si could only take Zhang Chuyi to ask the other monks in the temple.
And Ren Fei is responsible for arranging to go to the surrounding points of the King Kong Temple, and is responsible for arranging the employees who are watching.
Dou Le found a room, ready to summarize the information he currently has to see if he can find any clues.
