Chapter Forty-Eight: Change
Lu Tong didn't expect to meet Pei Yunyi here.
After a hurried glance in the rain yesterday, she saw that Pei Yunyi was leaving with the monks around her in the direction that was not here, and there was something else to do in Xu Lai Temple. I didn't expect to meet here early this morning.
Before she could answer, a tall man in green beside Pei Yunyi asked him, "This is ......?"
He chuckled: "An acquaintance." β
Lu Tong thinks that he is only a one-sided relationship with this Pei Shizi, and he is definitely not familiar. It's just that people are here now, and they want to cover it up instead of ignoring it. Then he generously bowed his head: "Master Pei." β
Pei Yunyi walked up to her with a smile.
Most of the pilgrims who come to the temple to offer incense are female dependents, and because of the Fa, they wear more and more plain clothes. The color of this person's clothes is not gaudy, but the golden crown black clothes are worn on him, and the layers of new willows and green and spring grass are fragrant behind him, which always adds a bit of handsomeness and grace that ordinary people do not have.
Beautiful young people, no matter where they stand, are always eye-catching. It didn't take long for someone to come back to their senses from the panic of the murder case and frequently looked at this head.
Pei Yunyao looked at Lu Tong, glanced at the corridor without Huaiyuan behind her, and asked, "Why is Doctor Lu here?" β
Lu Tong replied: "I'll make incense." β
He smiled and said: "It's not that the healer and the king of Hades are mortal enemies, how can Dr. Lu still believe in gods and Buddhas?" β
Lu Tong's tone remained unchanged: "The doctor also asks for marriage." β
Hearing this, Pei Yunyi seemed to be a little surprised, and then quickly looked at the gate of the garden, where more soap-clothed servants were walking in the direction of the Dharma Hall.
Lu Tong followed his gaze and heard him say, "There is a person in the Liberation Palace. β
Pei Yunyao turned his head to look at her, and his tone didn't know whether it was serious or joking: "Why didn't Dr. Lu go and take a look?" β
Last night, before the rain dried, behind him, the residual rain on a few plantain leaves rolled down, like a sprinkled crystal bead.
Yinzheng was so nervous that a layer of fine sweat oozed from his palms.
Lu Tong said calmly: "The doctor looks at the living, and only the dead can be seen." I'm not a pretend. β
He nodded, "Yes." He looked at Lu Tong again and sighed: "Doctor Lu, how do I think you are always very defensive of me." Speaking of which, I have saved you, and I have never offended you in the past. β
The man sighed, but he smiled. The last time he was in the dim light in the rouge shop, now he could see clearly under the warm sun, and when he laughed, there was a small pear vortex on his lips, which added to him the brightness and kindness that many young people have.
If you can ignore the meaning of his inquiry.
Lu Tong's expression did not change, and he said lightly: "Master Pei thinks a lot." β
He glanced at Lu Tong and was about to speak again, when suddenly someone ran over and stopped beside him: "My lord! β
It was a young man in a wisteria-colored silk robe, with a round face and round eyes, and when he saw Lu Tong, the young man was also stunned, and then said in surprise: "Isn't this the girl we met downstairs in Baoxiang last time!" β
Lu Tong also recognized it, last time, Pei Yunyi asked this young man to bring Lu Dashan back, and she still vaguely remembered the name of this young man, which seemed to be Duan Xiaoyan.
Duan Xiaoyan seemed to be full of cold and warm to talk to Lu Tong, but Pei Yunyi only glanced at him lightly, so he could only stand up and reply word by word to the news that he had just gotten.
"A man died in the release hall, drowned in the water tank containing the released turtle. He came to see it, and said that he was drunk and delirious, and he fell into the water tank and didn't get up before he died. β
Xiao Zhufeng on the side heard this, frowned and asked, "Since you are drunk, why do you still go to the abandoned side hall?" β
Duan Xiaoyan took a step forward and lowered his voice: "Isn't it, a paper horse was also found in that hall, and there was incense ash in the shrine. This man is here to worship God, and it is not good to worship any god, but it is a statue of the former dynasty. This time it's a big trouble, although the person is dead, I'm afraid that there is still something to be entangled in the family. β
There is no explicit prohibition on the worship of the statue of the former dynasty, but whether it is a crime to worship the idol of the former dynasty is well known to the people of the world.
Pei Yunyi sneered: "After drinking the wine, I want to offer it again, this person has a very wide heart." β
"I'm weird too." Duan Xiaoyan said again: "But later, people interrogated the deceased's little servant, it seems that the deceased was evil before, and he said some ghost words every day, and a few days ago he also found a Taoist priest to go to the mansion to exorcise evil spirits. I heard that I came to the festival this time to let the Bodhisattva help me overcome the ghosts. β
As he spoke, he felt creepy: "It's just that I didn't expect the resentful ghost that entangled him to be so powerful, not only was it not destroyed, but it also confused his mind and made him drown himself in the pool." β
Pei Yun said: "You also believe this nonsense." β
"Of course I didn't believe it at first!" Duan Xiaoyan shouted injustice: "But he didn't find anything else wrong, he drowned himself." β
Pei Yunyi groaned and asked, "What was that little guy doing last night?" β
He said that his master went to bed early last night, and he served the deceased to the bed, and when the deceased fell asleep, he went to the next door and played a night of leaf cards with a few small servants. When the man died, he had been playing cards for a long time. Someone testified that he did not kill him. β
Pei Yunyao didn't speak.
Duan Xiaoyan cautiously asked, "My lord, do you think there is something inside to this matter?" β
Xiao Zhufeng said coldly: "Regardless of whether there is an inside story or not, this person secretly worships the gods and Buddhas of the former dynasty, and this matter has come to an end." β
His death was less important than his private sins. No one is going to find the truth about a potential sinner, not even the family of the deceased.
Pei Yunyao said lightly: "This case is not under the control of the front of the palace, Duan Xiaoyan, you don't mix it up." β
Duan Xiaoyan agreed.
When they talked about this, they did not avoid Lu Tong, perhaps because the content of the conversation was not confidential, there are many pilgrims in Wan'en Temple today, and these superficial news will be known to everyone sooner or later.
Lu Tong didn't plan to stay here for a long time, there were dead people in the temple today, and the Qinglian Festival might not be held as usual, and those servants had not blocked the temple gate at this time.
It is important to descend the mountain as soon as possible......
As soon as Lu Tong thought of this, he suddenly heard a burst of exclamations from the crowd in front of him, accompanied by a panicked shout: "Dead man!" β
She raised her eyes to see that the crowd in front of her was quickly dispersed, as if avoiding the plague, and the scattered crowd gradually vacated the blocked sight, and saw that in the small pavilion not far from Wuhuai Garden, there was a slightly chubby young man half-lying on the ground, panting for breath.
Lu Tong's eyebrows frowned slightly, and he hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward quickly.
Behind him, Yin Zheng was shocked: "Girl? β
"It's fine." Lu Tong said: "Take my medical box." β
She walked a few steps to the gazebo, and saw the young man's face flushed, like a dying fish, desperately clutching his throat, panting out of shape, almost fainting.
Yin Zheng had already taken the medical box from the house and hurried over, Lu Tong opened the medical box, took out the golden needle from the long cloth, and aimed it at the acupuncture points of this son's Baihui, Fengchi, Dazhu, Dingchuan and other dry acupuncture points.
Yinzheng said: "Girl, he is ......"
"Phlegm in the lungs, when provoked, resulting in phlegm obstruction of the airway, airway spasm, lung loss, and phlegm and wheezing caused by the reversal of lung qi." Lu Tong pressed the hand of the person on the ground, and did not let him continue to scratch and touch the golden needle, and only said to the silver kite: "It's okay, just prick it with a needle." β
As soon as he finished saying this, a woman suddenly called anxiously from behind him: "Lin'erββ"
Without waiting for Lu Tong to speak, he saw a woman in a beautiful dress dressed in gold jewelry and a plump figure hurrying over, brushing away the silver kite and Lu Tong in three or two times, and rushed to the side of the son, first calling "heart and liver" and "Brother Lin", and then glaring at Lu Tong: "Who are you?" How dare you be so unreasonable to my son! β
Lu Tong saw that her hand accidentally touched the golden needle, and couldn't help frowning, and stepped forward and said, "He has a wheezing attack......
Before the words fell, a tall guard flashed out of nowhere beside the woman, and pushed Lu Tong back: "What do you want to do?" β
This guard was tall and big, and his movements were extremely rude, Lu Tong was pushed by him like this, took a few steps back, and almost fell to the ground.
But at this moment, someone behind her grabbed her arm, and her back was pressed against his chest, as if she was being embraced into her arms. Lu Tong smelled the faint aroma of blue musk coming from the front of the other party's placket, which was faint and cold.
Immediately afterwards, the arm holding her was loosened at the touch, and Pei Yunyi stood behind her, not far away but not close to just right, with a very light expression, as if the intimacy just now was just an illusion.
Before Lu Tong could thank Pei Yunyi, on the other side, the young man's mother, the woman in Lifu, pointed at her viciously and scolded angrily: "Bastard, what did you do to my son? β
