From everyone's discussions, Shen Lang roughly figured out the general situation of this matter:

A few days ago, Taishan Wudou was still fine, and they went to the Jade Crown to sit for two hours, and they were still talking and laughing when they came back.

From yesterday afternoon to the evening, Wudou was still drinking in Jindou's room, and he drank until after ten o'clock, and the other four buckets walked back to his room crookedly.

None of the five buckets got up this morning, and according to the usual sitting time of the five of them, they should be the first five to get up.

After getting up, they only rinsed their mouths and did not need to wash their faces, and the five of them met to practice swordsmanship or boxing for an hour in a large courtyard at the end of the Taishan faction.

Then go back to the room to have breakfast, after breakfast to the main hall to meditate for two hours, sometimes there will be a round to the disciples of the Taishan faction to preach the scriptures, the interest comes, the five elders will also improvise the martial arts of the Taishan faction.

But this morning, it was time for the fifth elder to come back and wash his face, but no one appeared.

The disciple in charge of the five elders' washing felt strange, so he went to the courtyard of the back mountain to look for it, but he didn't find anyone, and when he came back, he went to the room where the five elders lived.

I didn't expect to go to the first room, I couldn't push the door open, and I shouted and shouted that I shouldn't, so I panicked, and ran to the second Dou Lao's room to call someone, and it was okay to go, and the second Dou Lao woke up as soon as he screamed, Mu Dou hurriedly got up, and said to the person who came to call while dressing:

"What are you doing standing here? Why don't you call the other three elders? After waking up, go and call the head immediately. ”

After a while, everyone in the monastery knew about it.

Forcibly opened the door of Jin Dou's room, and the head of the house, Chu Tiankuo, put his hand close to Jin Dou's nostrils and probed, but he didn't try to breathe.

He also grasped Jin Dou's left wrist with his right hand, and put his left index finger and thumb together to test Jin Dou's pulse.

No sign of blood beating, so he was very sad to announce that one of the five buckets of Mount Tai, Master Jin Dou, had died.

The other four buckets didn't say anything, Mu Dou only said lightly, then you go and arrange the eldest brother's funeral. The remaining four buckets exited the room of the golden bucket.

The head of the sect, Chu Tiankuo, ordered someone to move Jin Dou's body to the main hall below, which is the place where every person from the Taishan faction rests his body and mourns after his death.

The stall was busy until after breakfast, and it was basically cleaned up.

Soon after cleaning up, Shen Lang arrived at the Taishan Sect Temple, and Shen Lang also knew about what happened later.

Everyone naturally has no idea when they are not in charge, and you talk endlessly, but it doesn't play a role.

Shen Lang also felt strange, didn't this old man Jin Dou have any signs of bad reaction before he died, and before he died, he didn't call the head Chu Tiankuo to the bed to give an explanation, nor did he call his disciples together to give an instruction or something?

Also, I didn't hear that the old man Jin Dou had any illness or any emergencies before.

I haven't heard of any outsiders visiting the temple of the Taishan sect, and there are no traces of any fighting.

It's also so strange that he died so suddenly, so strangely, that one has to be suspicious.

But what's even more strange is that the other four elders of Taishan didn't have much sadness, and they didn't say that they wanted to find out the cause of death or anything, and the four of them didn't have any suspicions or anything.

He was thinking about it when he heard footsteps coming from outside the door.

Everyone turned their heads to the gate, and Shen Lang also moved his head to the gate.

At this time, outside the gate, Chu Tiankuo and his disciple Niu Yuqiao hurriedly walked in.

Everyone saw what arrangements the head of the family had, and they all stood up and waited for Chu Tiankuo to speak, and Shen Lang also stood up with everyone.

Chu Tiankuo, the head of the Taishan faction, first pressed his hands down and motioned for everyone to sit down.

Then he glanced at everyone, and was just about to speak, when he saw Shen Lang standing in the middle of the mourning procession, he walked up to Shen Lang, held Shen Lang's hand tightly, and said with a solemn expression:

"Brother Shen, when did you arrive, did you have breakfast, now that something is happening in the temple, I don't have time to say hello, I hope to Duoduo Haihan, and ask my subordinates to arrange accommodation for a while, I have to deal with things now, I'm busy first." ”

Shen Lang also held his hand and said:

"The head is busy first, take care of the affairs in your temple first, don't worry about me. ”

Both sides let go of their hands.

After everyone sat down, Chu Tiankuo cleared his throat and said:

"This happened to this faction, Master Jin Dou left us last night, and everyone is very sad.

"But everyone is dead, and I just asked a few masters about the situation of Master Jin Dou in the past few days, whether he is sick, whether there is any problem in his life, and whether any outsiders have come to us to fight with the master.

"Or maybe the five of them were competing on their own, causing the master's injury. What is certain is that none of this exists, so the preliminary judgment is that the master had some kind of sudden illness last night and left us without us knowing.

"It's useless for us to be sad, and now the top priority is to take care of the master's aftermath and let the master go into the ground quietly.

"We want to make this matter lively and beautiful, so that the master can leave with confidence.

"Now I will talk about the specific arrangements for the burial master: ask the senior brother Jin Buchang to be responsible for the funeral ceremony. ”

Jin Buchang listened to the instructions, and immediately stood up and agreed:

"Yes!"

"Ask the second senior brother to be responsible for the work of life with little money, and there should be seven dishes on the table for each meal, and as for how to arrange the plan, the second senior brother will go down to find someone to do it. ”

After saying that, no one agreed.

Chu Tiankuo glanced at it again, only to find that the second senior brother was not at the scene, and at this time, someone also reminded the head that the second senior brother had just gone out.

Chu Tiankuo continued to arrange:

"He's not here, he'll be here in a while, please tell the second senior brother. The place of the master's burial was set under the two large pine trees behind the mountain.

"That place is called Big Pine Tree, please ask the third senior brother Qin Buyi, take three or four people to clean up the burial site before noon tomorrow, and dig the dead well.

"Ten o'clock in the morning the day after tomorrow is the time for the master's return to the mountain for burial, there can be no mistakes, everyone must also remember this time and come on time to attend the funeral of the master and his old man. ”

Qin Buyi also stood up and replied:

"Yes!"

"Other people of all colors, don't find something to do, see what you can't do, just reach out to help do something, and if you can, you can make a little effort, and work together to send the master and his old man up the mountain. ”

After listening to the arrangement, everyone replied in unison: "Yes." ”

Just as Chu Tiankuo was about to withdraw and leave, Hua Duo stood up and said:

"Senior brother in charge, everyone knows that Master Jin Dou is usually very good to us, but now he is dying in vain.

"Everyone feels very sad and sad, and they must be sending the bustle and heat and scenery up the mountain, but there is a question that I don't know whether to mention or not?"

Chu Tiankuo withdrew his right foot that had just stepped out, stood with his feet side by side and asked:

"Fourth Senior Brother, if you have any questions, just ask them. ”

"I just want to ask, how did the master die, and what was the cause of his death?"

"I have already said the cause of the master's death just now, and I have discussed it with the four masters, and the cause of death is really unclear.

"But one thing is certain, if it wasn't the enemy who killed the master, it is impossible for someone within us to kill the master, you don't doubt this, right?

"No enemy has killed the master, and no one in us will kill the master, but we must find out the cause of the master's death before everyone can rest assured?

At this time, someone next to him was whispering yes. In fact, this is also the truth that many disciples of the Taishan Sect want to know.

"Since everyone wants to know the cause of the master's death, what should be done?"

Some people said that the coffin should be opened for an autopsy, and some said that a doctor should be invited to come.

Some said that the head of the house would just open the coffin for an autopsy, and some said that the rest of the four buckets should be allowed to conduct an autopsy.

I don't know who is right, Chu Tiankuo, the head of this issue, has not thought about it, and he can't make up his mind at once.

At this time, Qian didn't stumble, and walked in from outside the door with the smell of wine, and it seemed that the wine should be happy.

When he entered the door, he heard everyone talking, and he didn't pay attention to what people were, but when he entered the door, he said:

"Fuck, I've been pitted, I usually drink it once, only fifty yuan, but today I drank fifty-five yuan, the master is dead, and I'm not in the mood to reason with him. Today this wine is so good, it is so comfortable to drink. ”

walked next to Shen Lang and wanted to sit with Shen Lang, but he didn't expect to sit down and sit on Jin Buchang's lap.

As soon as Jin Buchang put his foot away, he almost fell to the ground, and the wine was half sober.

Seeing that the senior brother of the head was also at the scene, on such an occasion, no matter how senior he was, he couldn't be presumptuous, so he quickly shut his mouth.

Tan Buxi saw his drunken appearance, although he usually had a good relationship, he couldn't help but say:

"Comfortable, you have to be like a master to be comfortable. ”

Chu Tiankuo glanced at the money and didn't say anything.

He knows that his senior brother doesn't have much money, his only hobby is drinking, and he doesn't have any bad intentions, he drinks high, and sometimes he doesn't pay much attention to his image when he speaks and does things.

He ignored the lack of money and said to everyone:

"Then how to deal with the questions you raised just now?"

He has always been a respected leader, although he is not as old as Wubu, but Wubu respects and is willing to accept his arrangement.

"I think there are two ways: one is to ask Shen Daxia to give a testimony in public, and the other is to ask our master and the other four elders to come to the autopsy, and Shen Daxia and the head can testify, I don't know what everyone thinks?"

Jin Buchang first put forward his own views.

"I think it's better to invite the rest of the four elders to come for an autopsy, after all, the four elders are good brothers who have lived and died with Master Jin Dou for decades.

"They will be a little happier when they come to the autopsy, and they will not blame us for not knowing their relationship, the other four elders are the oldest, and no one dares to say anything when they come to the autopsy.

"Witness, witness, I see Shen Daxia's behavior, just by virtue of Shen Daxia's reputation in the martial arts and his personality, as well as his relationship with our five nos, the witness is none other than him.

"He and our Taishan faction are also old friends, acquaintances are easy to do, we can all trust it, just follow the second method. ”

This is what a lot of people are talking about.

Everyone also thought that he made sense of this, so there was no discussion.

The head Chu Tiankuo saw that everyone did not object, and said:

"Okay, now go and ask the fourth elder to come down to check the cause of the master's death, and ask Senior Brother Qin Buyi to go and lie down, how about it?"

Qin Buyi saw his name, and he should also go and lie down, and without saying a word, he stood up and walked out.

Everyone wanted to wait for a result to see how the four elders came down to check the cause of Jin Dou's death, but not many people spoke at the scene, and they were all waiting patiently.
