Master Renshan looked a little surprised: "I don't know why Ye Gongzi asked that?"

Iron finger Zen Gong, one of the seventy-two stunts of Shaolin, although the name is not as famous as the Yijin Sutra, the flower finger, and the palm of the hand, but it is also very famous, and it is rumored that when you practice to the highest level, you can rely on the fingers of the flesh and blood alone, straight into the wood and stone, such as cutting tofu.

Tang Da's face changed at this time, and he asked, "Mo Fei, what else have you discovered?"

Ye Feng nodded and said, "That's right, I found that which small hole at the lower end of the beam was used to hide the poison powder was not dug by a sharp weapon blade, but was caused by someone inserting it with his fingers! Among the seventy-two Shaolin stunts, in addition to the Iron Finger Zen Gong, what other martial arts have such power?"

Master Renshan sighed, he understood what Ye Feng meant.

After thinking about it, he replied slowly: "Master Qi Bin's nephew is a disciple of Senior Brother Gai, in addition to being responsible for the meals of the room and the monks in the temple, he only participates in meditation and worships the Buddha every day. ”

After a pause, he said again: "However, this senior brother is extremely talented in martial arts, and Lao Wei has heard that he is the only person in Shaolin Temple who has been able to practice more than ten of the seventy-two stunts for hundreds of years." However, whether it also includes this iron finger Zen gong, the old man is unknown. ”

Ye Feng and Tang Da's eyebrows moved, and they were secretly surprised in their hearts.

These Shaolin 72 stunts, all of which are extremely powerful, but also extremely difficult to practice, especially foreign kung fu such as iron finger Zen Gong, it is said that ordinary people have to practice more than five years of basic kung fu before they can further study, about ten years, before they can have a small success.

It is really unbelievable that the master of this transformation can master more than ten stunts by himself, which shows that his talent is indeed far beyond ordinary people.

It seems that the name of this condensation master has spread all over the world, in addition to his Buddhist cultivation is extremely broad and profound, this martial art must also be unparalleled.

Master Inzan's words seemed as if he hadn't said anything and didn't know anything, but vaguely, he seemed to have said a lot.

Since the master's martial arts are outstanding, and it is very likely that this iron finger Zen skill is very likely, then if this apprentice knows this martial arts, it is naturally a logical thing.

Ye Feng frowned, thought for a long time, and then said: "This murderer is willing to take a risk in the Shaolin Temple, and came up with such an ingenious but also extremely dangerous method, he must have killed Master Chen, there must be a reason for him to have no choice." ”

Master Renshan nodded and said, "This is a good statement, but this Senior Brother Chen has served as the first seat of the Shaolin Discipline Academy for many years, responsible for investigating and supervising all kinds of illegal affairs of the monks inside and outside the temple, which should have offended many people." ”

However, he was born with a compassionate heart, was kind to others everywhere, and never endured harsh reproaches for the monks who violated the precepts, and everyone was happy and sincere to him, and they respected him very much, and no one would ever hold a grudge against him, or even poison him. ”

The first seat of the Precept Academy?

Ye Feng blinked, suddenly seemed to think of something, and asked: "Since the Discipline Academy is responsible for dealing with all the violations in the whole temple, I don't know what was the last thing that Master Lichen dealt with before this?"

Master Renshan thought about it carefully and said, "Old Man remembers that the last thing that Senior Brother Lichen dealt with was actually a trivial matter. Three days ago, a family in the field under the monastery caught fire in the middle of the night, and an elderly couple who were responsible for delivering fresh vegetables to the monastery every day were burned alive in the small village below the mountain. ”

"It's strange to say, this matter is not a big deal, and only a deacon monk needs to be sent to deal with it, but Senior Brother Lichen insisted on doing it himself, and personally went to the scene to investigate and deal with the aftermath. ”

Ye Feng's heart chuckled, and he suddenly remembered what he heard about Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou's fire and death when he was passing through the small village when he went up the mountain.

Three days ago, there was a fire in the middle of the night, isn't that what they mean?

He hurriedly asked, "What is the result of Master Chen's investigation?"

Master Renshan said, "The result is not just an accidental fire and a natural disaster. I only pity the old couple, who have provided vegetables for the temple every day for many years, rain or shine, and have worked hard, but they have encountered such a flying disaster, and I only hope that they can be free from the mortal dust and ascend to bliss as soon as possible. Amitabha!"

He pronounced a Buddha horn and looked up a little strangely

He glanced at Ye Feng strangely and asked, "What's the matter?"

Ye Feng pondered and shook his head: "No." Since Master Lichen has concluded that this is caused by an accidental fire, what is the connection? ”

Master Renshan said: "What Ye Gongzi said is reasonable. Since this murderer is so risky and poisoned Senior Brother Chen, it is very likely that it is related to the matter he investigated and dealt with before, so Lao Wei ordered someone to go and read some of the files that Senior Brother Chen had handled before to see if there are any clues?"

Ye Feng nodded.

He didn't tell the truth, although Master Renshan said that Master Chen had concluded that Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou had died of an accidental fire after investigation, Ye Feng still felt some doubts in his heart.

Even he could find the palm print on the remaining half of the door panel, and saw that Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou's death was strange, didn't Master Chen?

Since he has served as the head of the precept institute for many years, and is in charge of investigating the size of the temple, he must be a meticulous, cautious and careful person, and it is impossible for him to turn a blind eye to such obvious evidence.

Ye Feng vaguely felt in his heart that Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou were suddenly killed by a master who could wrestle steles late at night, and disguised as an accidental fire, this incident must be inextricably linked with the case of last night, a murderer who knew how to use iron finger Zen Gong and took the risk of poisoning Master Chen.

But what exactly is the connection? Ye Feng had no clue for a while.

Master Renshan looked at Ye Feng, who was silent in thought, and asked, "What else does Ye Gongzi need to know?"

Ye Feng thought for a moment before replying, "I want to meet this Master Qi Bin who found Master Ran's corpse." ”

Master Renshan seemed to have expected it, and he was not surprised at all, and immediately replied: "This is naturally no problem, and the old man will ask someone to invite Master Qibin's nephew to meet." ”

He stood up and strode out of the abbot's room.

After Master Renshan walked out of the abbot's room, he had been listening quietly, and Miss Cheng Nianzhen, who had not spoken, suddenly sighed and said, "Have you noticed that this abbot's face is a little not good. ”

Ye Feng pondered and didn't say anything, Tang Da smiled and said, "If something like this happens in the temple, no matter which abbot's face is not good. ”

Miss Cheng shook her head: "No, his bad face is not because of his mood, but because he has some symptoms in his body, I can't be mistaken." ”

Miss Cheng has studied medicine with her father, Cheng Sansi, a miracle doctor, since she was a child, and has seen countless patients.

Tang Da also sighed and said: "When this time comes, Miss Cheng still finds an opportunity to have a good diagnosis for Master Renshan, such a huge temple must be extremely cumbersome to take care of every day, and there are also diseases caused by hard work, it seems that it is really not easy to be such an abbot!"

Miss Cheng nodded.

Her eyes were looking at Ye Feng in contemplation at this time.

She likes to see Ye Feng contemplative and silent like this, this kind of preoccupied demeanor, she feels very charming.

And often after such contemplation, Ye Feng was often able to think of something that others couldn't think of at all, which made everyone's eyes light up.

This is probably the so-called talent, and it is also the most important point that Miss Cheng thinks Ye Feng is different.

What she likes is that it's different.

Soon, Monk Qibin came to the abbot's room.

He is neither tall nor short, neither fat nor thin, and his square face is full of sincerity, which is very pleasing to the eye at first glance, and at first glance he feels that this is a particularly honest person.

What he said also made people feel very honest, and the deep voice made people feel a sense of trust and credibility.

What he said about the discovery of Master Chen's body was roughly the same as what Master Renshan said before, Ye Feng repeatedly asked about some details, but he didn't find anything suspicious.

Ye Feng thought for a while, and suddenly asked, "Three days ago in the middle of the night, a farmer in a small village under the mountain suddenly accidentally caught fire and died, do you know this?"

Monk Qi Bin was obviously stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect Ye Feng to ask about this matter at all.

However, he quickly reacted, sighed and said, "This matter."

The poor monk naturally knows. Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou have been planting and transporting fresh vegetables for the temple for many years, and the poor monk happens to be in charge of the house, so they are naturally very familiar with each other on weekdays. They are all good people! What a misfortune it is to suffer such a catastrophe. ”

Ye Feng looked at Monk Qibin and asked meaningfully, "Did they really die from an accidental fire?"

When Monk Qibin heard this, his face was full of surprise, and he asked, "Isn't it? Could it be that there is something suspicious about their death?"

Ye Feng shook his head again and again: "No, no, I'll just ask casually." Who do they usually have a grudge with?"

Monk Qibin thought for a moment before replying, "I haven't heard of it." They are all extremely kind people, they treat people warmly, they never take care of people, and they have never even heard of a quarrel with anyone, how can such a person have a grudge against someone?"

Ye Feng nodded, and after a moment, he suddenly asked again: "There is one thing I don't understand yet, and I hope that Master Qibin will give me advice." ”

Monk Qibin said: "Why should Ye Gongzi be polite, but it doesn't hurt to ask. ”

Ye Feng frowned and asked, "Looking at the monks in the Shaolin Temple, there are hundreds of them, and the daily consumption of food is huge. Even if Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou work hard day and night, the vegetables they grow are only a few, how can they supply the needs of the temple all year round?"

Monk Qibin smiled faintly and said, "Ye Gongzi misunderstood. The monks in the Shaolin Temple are very wide, so for generations, they have been blessed with a lot of land, so the farmers in the villages under the mountain are all cultivating the land of the temple. ”

In addition to keeping enough for their daily needs, they also had to send food and vegetables to the temple in proportion to the amount of land, so they actually belonged to the tenants of the temple. ”

In addition to Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou, there are many other farmers who are also responsible for transporting fresh vegetables to the temple every day, but other people's vegetables are for the use of the big house, and Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou are honest and have been old tenants in the temple for many years, so the vegetables they send are more assured, just for the small house. ”

Ye Feng was stunned for a moment: "In addition to the big guy's room, there is a small guy's room?"

Monk Qi Bin explained: "The big room is mainly responsible for the daily diet of all the monks in the temple, so the consumption is very huge. However, this young man's room is actually only responsible for the diet of the two masters in the temple, so although the vegetables sent by Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou every day are not much, they are enough to use. ”

Ye Feng asked, "I don't know which two masters are responsible for the diet of the young man's room?"

Monk Qibin replied: "The young man's room is mainly responsible for the daily diet of Master Renshan, the abbot of the temple, and there is also a family master who lives in seclusion in the grove next to Tallinn behind the temple. ”

He looked at Ye Feng with doubts on his face, and then said: "Master Renshan is the abbot of the temple, and he is busy with affairs, and the family master lives in seclusion in the bamboo hermitage, studying Buddhist scriptures day and night, so it is difficult for the two of them to eat regularly, and they cannot eat together with other monks in the temple, so a small room was set up for the food and drink of the two masters. ”

Ye Feng nodded suddenly in realization: "I see." ”

He secretly thought in his heart, Buddhism said that all living beings are equal, and he didn't expect that in the monastery, the monks were also divided into three, six, nine and so on, and the respected monks even had the privilege of eating and drinking.

After asking, Ye Feng pondered a little silently, but Tang Da grabbed Monk Qibin's hands with great enthusiasm, thanked him repeatedly, and sent him out.

When Tang Da came back, Ye Feng raised his head and glanced at him inquiringly.

Tang Da shook his head and said, "It's not him. ”

Miss Cheng and Tang Rou on the side both felt inexplicable, and Tang Da explained: "Those who practice Iron Finger Zen Gong must have thick calluses on their fingers after years of hard practice. I held the hand of this Qibin monk just now, and he didn't have calluses on his hands and ten fingers, so he must not know how to use iron fingers for Zen exercises, and he is not the one who poisoned him. ”

Everyone let out an "oh", and then they understood the reason why Tang Da was so enthusiastic just now.

At this time, Ye Feng was thinking about it, but he said faintly: "If you don't know how to use Zen Exercises, it can only mean that he is not the person who poisoned him, but it does not mean that he will not be the one who cleaned up the scene and wiped the residual poisonous powder on the case." ”

Everyone listened to his words, and they all looked at each other for a while, silent.
