"Today, there is a disciple of Lingyin Temple, Daoji, who committed the crime of killing the teacher, and Chen Juan, the head of the Criminal Division of Lin'an Mansion, rewarded him with 3,000 yuan to be arrested. Dao Ji, a person from Yongning Village, Tiantai County, whose real name is Li Xiuyuan, is 17 years old, and his appearance is as follows. ”

Recently, a notice issued by the Criminal Department of Lin'an Prefecture shocked Lin'an City.

"You say, did the Daoji monk of Lingyin Temple kill the teacher? I heard that this person has a very good reputation in Lin'an City, and he often helps the needy, and he is not like a person who would do such a thing of killing people and taking pills?"

"Hehe, what does this Daoji monk have to do with whether he deceived his teacher and destroyed his ancestors? I didn't come to investigate the case when I waited for the side door to gather in Lin'an City, as long as the Daoji monk was arrested, one could enter the punishment department of one of the three legal divisions of the imperial court, and second, I could receive a reward from Lingyin Temple, not to mention, didn't you all see what was written on the real reward notice in the cultivation world? The Daoji monk is pregnant with the Jindan relics of Zen Master Huiyuan, the blind hall Huiyuan, the Taoist monk of Emperor Wu, who would not want to get his Jindan relics?

A group of people from the rivers and lakes gathered in the Nancheng Post House in Lin'an City.

"Hahaha, yes, but don't be deceived by the imperial court and the monks of Lingyin Temple, I think that since the Daoji monk can escape from Lingyin Temple after killing the teacher, although he borrowed the power of the nameless sword immortal, his own means must be extraordinary.

We must not take it lightly.

And there is one more thing that needs to be more cautious, if you want to get the golden pill relics on Daoji, you can no longer go to the court and Lingyin Temple to receive the bounty, and those who try to get all the benefits in vain will only lose their own lives!"

There are also some knowledgeable people among the scattered cultivators who can see through the evil intentions hidden in the bounty of the Punishment Division and the Lingyin Temple at a glance.

"What Daoyou said is reasonable, but the top priority is to find the whereabouts of the Daoji monk?"

"Yes, there was a Taoist friend who saw the nameless Tsing Yi Sword Immortal mentioned in the announcement walking westward with a white ape with a tongji, but he didn't see the figure of the Taoist monk alone, I don't know if any of you are well-informed Taoist friends to inform the Taoist monk of his whereabouts at this time?"

"Hahaha, if I knew the whereabouts of the Daoji monk, I would have found the door a long time ago, and would I still wait here? Maybe that Daoji had already left Lin'an, and it was because I didn't know his whereabouts that I came to Lin'an City to try my luck!"

The scattered cultivators all looked at each other, and then dozens of them divided into several groups to investigate the whereabouts of the Daoji monk in Lin'an City.

Some of them left Lin'an after the investigation was fruitless, but there were still a small number of people with strong hearts who found some clues and continued to lurk in Lin'an City.

There is a Confucian academy called Chongqi outside Lin'an City, which is not very famous in the entire Great Song Kingdom.

The cold was getting heavier, and it was already winter, and a middle-aged man in a gray Confucian costume came to the mountain gate of Chongqi Academy.

The gray-clothed man looked to be in his forties, wearing a dark black semi-fan-shaped high hat, with clear bones, a cold face, and a neat long beard under his chin, giving people a sense of solemnity and majesty.

Knock knock, knock on the door is very rhythmic, like a welcome music.

The one who came up to open the door was a little boy of thirteen or fourteen years old, with clever eyes and a well-behaved appearance, dressed as a doorman.

"Dare to ask this gentleman's surname, is there something wrong with coming to my Chongqi Academy?" the young doorman saluted lightly and asked the gray-clothed man outside the mountain gate.

"Hehe, in Xia Wang Yun, the word Bo'an, a person from Shaoxing Mansion, and Lu Shanchang of your hospital are old friends, I came here today to visit friends, and I also ask Mr. Xiao to present this thing, Lu Shanchang will understand after reading it!" The man in gray smiled gently, took out a letter from the wide sleeve of his coat, and handed it to the young doorman's hand.

"Okay, I'm going to report to the mountain chief first, and please wait a moment with Mr. Wang!" the young doorman smiled modestly and respectfully accepted the letter handed by the man in gray.

In the living room behind the academy, Lu Fangweng took the thin letter in his hand, and listened to the words of admiration from the young man's mouth, and couldn't help frowning: "What does that person say about his surname?"

If it is really as Xiao An described, with such a strange appearance, the old man has dealt with this person before, and it is impossible not to have the slightest impression.

"Wang Yun, Wang Bo'an, people from Shaoxing Mansion. The young doorman replied.

"The old man is not among the old friends in Shaoxing Mansion, there is no one named Wang Yun!" Lu Fangweng shook his head and sighed: "This person is not sincere, don't see it!"

"Yes, Mountain Chief, the villain will go over and send him away!" The young doorman raised his head and glanced at Lu Fangweng carefully, and was about to pick up the letter in Lu Shanchang's hand.

Lu Fangweng thought about it, and decided to open the letter first.

When I opened the letter, there were only nine big characters written on it: Fengle Building, Qi Xianren, Li Taibai.

Lu Fangweng's heart moved, and he hurriedly said to the doorman: "Xiao An, go and invite that Mr. Wang in!"

"Yes, Chief, Xiao An is going to ask the king to show up!" replied the young doorman with a chuckle.

He had a very good impression of the Mr. Wang outside the mountain gate, and if he really wanted to expel him according to Lu Shanchang's wishes, he would not want to do so.

When Lu Xiaoan came in with a middle-aged Confucian student dressed in gray and black, Lu Fangweng also began to look at this person carefully.

In his forties, he has a unique temperament, not ordinary, and he has not seen it before.

After retiring from the young man's doorman and closing the door, Lu Fangweng raised the letter in his hand and said directly to the gray-clothed Confucian student: "Since Mr. Wang can take out this letter, he must be a trusted person by Master Daoji."

Master Daoji asked Mr. Wang to take this letter to the old man's Chongqi Academy for help, and the old man was also deeply honored.

The old man also heard about Master Daoji some time ago, and although he didn't know the details, he was also convinced of Master Daoji's conduct. Although the old man is now far away from the officialdom of the Great Song Dynasty, some of the old friends he made in the early years are still serving in the court, as long as Master Daoji tells him the details, the old man can write a handwritten letter to defend Master Daoji.

Master Daoji has a need, and he also asked Mr. Wang to make it clear, and the old man will do his best to help him. ”

"Hahaha, Lu Shan is always noble, and the poor monk also admires his vision!" The man in gray smiled indifferently and made a Buddhist salute to Lu Fangweng.

When Lu Fangweng heard the voice of the man in gray, he immediately felt very familiar.

I saw the man in gray smearing his face, and the face of a solemn and majestic middle-aged man slowly became green, and finally fixed on a handsome young man of seventeen or eighteen, who was Li Xiuyuan.

"It turns out that this is the true face of Master Daoji!" Lu Fangweng was stunned.

The young man is heroic and extraordinary, and he is not at all like the sloppy and decadent monk he saw in Fengle Building that day.

Seeing Li Xiuyuan's change technique, Lu Fangweng couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect that Master Daoji was also a stranger!"

"This matter is also asked to be kept secret by Chief Lu Shan, a poor monk!" Li Xiuyuan changed back to the appearance of a gray-clothed Confucian student.

"Naturally!" Lu Fangweng smiled and said, "Then I don't know why Brother Wang Xian came to find the old man today?"

Li Xiuyuan also smiled and said: "In the past, I also studied Confucianism, and I felt that I could learn it well, so I wanted to seek a position as a teacher in your academy, I wonder if Lu Shanchang can take him in?"

"Hehe, Brother Wang Xian's talented old man naturally knows, but Chongqi Academy is a private school, and there is no government subsidy, so the four gentlemen in the academy and the old man only have three taels of silver per month, I wonder if Brother Wang Xian will be too little?" Lu Fangweng looked at Li Xiuyuan and asked with a smile.

"Less is a little less, but the mountain chief said some time ago that if a poor monk comes to the academy, good wine is indispensable!" Li Xiuyuan also joked with Lu Fangweng.

"Definitely, definitely!" Lu Fangweng smiled, and asked with a solemn face: "The old man said before that as long as Master Daoji informs him of the details of the Lingyin Temple, the old man is willing to write a letter for the master to avenge his grievances, and if he is rehabilitated, the master does not have to hide here incognito!"

"Alas, please forgive me for not being able to go into details, this matter is widely implicated, there are undercurrents surging in the cultivation world, and there are forces from the Qin Prime Minister's Mansion in the imperial court, so I really don't want to implicate the mountain chief.

If the matter hidden in Chongqi Academy happens, the mountain chief can pretend not to know, and if he writes to the court at this time, he will definitely be implicated. Li Xiuyuan sighed and said: "This time I came to Chongqi Academy to re-learn the law of Confucianism, which is also a practice, and in the future, I hope that Lu Shanchang will be able to give teaching!"

Lu Fangweng also saw that Li Xiuyuan had a hard time, so he had to sigh: "Since Brother Wang Xian said so, then the old man will not ask more, and after a while, the old man will let Xiao An clean up a residence for the virtuous brother in the academy, and then he will be the residence of the virtuous brother's study, after resting here for one night, tomorrow the old man will take the virtuous brother to the school to teach, I don't know what the virtuous brother wants?"

"It's very good for the mountain chief to arrange it like this!" Li Xiuyuan nodded and accepted it happily.
