Shi Fudi, with the guide translator of the Xurui Dynasty and a few samurai in charge of the bags, crossed the mountains and mountains from the Radanpo Dynasty and finally came to the Central and Southern Plateau east of the western part of the Xurui Dynasty, which would be the starting point for his propagation of Buddhism.

The southwest plateau is full of lofty mountains and mountains, animal and plant resources are abundant, the canyons are deep, the rivers are turbulent, in the face of the magical and magnificent mountains and rivers of the Xurui Dynasty, the servant secretly made a great wish: the road to Buddhahood is difficult and difficult, but as long as there are people who have developed bodhicitta and embarked on the path of Buddhahood, I swear to lead them to the end!

Shi Servant Di and several people walked on the mountain road of the Central and South Plateau for many days, and at noon on this day, they came to the Rige Temple built at the foot of the mountain.

There was no one at the entrance of the temple, and the door was closed.

The attendant guards knocked on the door for a while, and only then did a little monk come out and open the door.

The little monk saw that the person headed by him was a yellow-faced monk, so he let a few people into the temple.

The courtyard was empty, and a few people were wondering, and the little monk suddenly began to cry, and after crying a few times, the little monk said, "A few of you are here to eat, right? The kitchen is there, you can see for yourself what you have to eat, use it as you like, anyway, this place is about to be disbanded." I'm going to guard the abbot. ”

After speaking, the little monk wiped his tears and cried while turning away.

The servant called a few people to wait, and followed the little monk alone.

When the little monk saw the yellow-faced monk coming, he pointed to the man lying on his back covered with a white cloth and said, "This is the abbot of our temple, who was strangled to death last night, and the silver that a big benefactor just donated was also robbed. We went to the government early in the morning to report the case, but as soon as the person who reported the case arrived at the yamen, he was arrested, and soon the yamen came and arrested dozens of monks in the whole temple, leaving me alone to guard the abbot, what should I do!"

Shi Fudi originally learned the words of the Xurui Dynasty from the southern merchants, and these days, he has been speaking the official language of the Xurui Dynasty to the translation school, and he has basically been able to communicate with the people of the Xurui Dynasty independently.

Coming out of the little monk's house, Shi Servant took a guard to the yamen.

The guards learned the whole story from the yamen: on the night of the murder of the abbot of Rige Temple, a second-rank official and his wife in the town, who had returned from his official post in the capital and had not long been killed, were also killed at home. Yamen first received a report from the official's family, and was about to go to the Rige Temple to investigate, the monks of the Rige Temple came to report the case, the Yamen detained the monk who reported the case, and sent the case-handling personnel to the Rige Temple to investigate, and the reporter left a young monk in his teens to guard the temple and took away all the monks in the temple.

Shi Zhidi listened to the guards tell him about the situation and walked to the door of the murdered official's house.

The guards asked the yamen for a token as instructed by the servant, and the servant was able to enter the official's house to understand the situation.

When the guard handed the token to the yamen standing guard at the door, the servant turned around and saw a person walking by the door not far away, looking as he went.

Shi Fudi learned about the new situation from the family of the murdered official: The day before the murder of the murdered official, he had held a donation ceremony at Rige Monastery and donated 30,000 taels of silver to expand the monastery, which caused a great shock in the remote and poor town, and onlookers crowded inside and outside the temple.

When Shi Fudi and the guards came out of the house of the murdered official to learn about the situation, Shi Fudi saw the person who had been passing by the door and kept looking at the door, and he was still looking this way as he walked.

The servant immediately concluded that there was something wrong with the man. With the assistance of the guards, he secretly visited two families and learned about the man's situation: his parents were gone, and he only had one brother, and his brother was a big-shouldered and round-waisted bastard, and he was a well-known bastard in the town for smashing and robbing, and he rarely appeared in the town for some reason in the past year.

At dusk, the servant sent the guards back to the temple to rest, and he stayed in the town.

When it was dark, the servant quietly climbed over the wall and entered the courtyard of a man's house, and he came to the window first, and saw a figure of a human head swaying on the window paper.

He stood at the window for a moment, concluded that there was only one person in the room, and was drinking, and then he went to the door and gently pushed it.

The door was slammed shut, and he used his internal force to break the bolt and enter the house.

The people in the house seemed to hear a little movement, and just as they were about to get off the ground, a hand like an iron tong had already grabbed his neck.

"Don't shout! I'll save your life. The servant said.

Although the person in the room was a strong man of thirty years old, he felt the pressure of the hand on his neck like a boulder, and he was too frightened to speak.

The servant said, "You killed the murdered official!"

"No! no!"

"How many taels of silver do you need for this table of wine and food? It's not a festival, you just eat these? I know that your family often eats one meal without the next, where do you get the silver?"

“......”

The servant looked at the only broken box in the room and said, "Open that box!"

Shi Servant found a monk's robe under the box, he stared into the man's eyes and said: "The family of the murdered official sees that the perpetrator is wearing a monk's robe, and if you deny it, I will immediately send you to the yamen, and if there is evidence and material evidence, you can be convicted, two murders, only the death penalty!"

When the man heard this, he immediately knelt on the ground and pleaded, "Master, don't send me to the yamen! I really didn't do it, I swear......

"If you can't tell the real culprit, that's what you did, I heard that the official of the government is going to come to take over the case, and then you will be punished, and you won't even have a chance to argue. Said word by word.

The man sighed, gritted his teeth, and said, "Brother, I'm sorry." You said that no one found out at all, and it was absolutely safe, but just one day the matter was revealed. I really can't do it, I'll die if I don't tell you, I haven't touched a woman yet!"

Shi Shi looked at the man who had made up his mind to tell the truth and said, "Okay, as long as you tell the real murderer, my entourage is from the government, I can guarantee your safety, and you can be regarded as a voluntary confession, and you will not be held accountable for harboring crimes." ”

......

It turned out that a year ago, there were a few outsiders in the town, they were robbers and murderers, and this person's brother fooled around with these criminals, and they built a small wooden house in the mountains and forests ten miles away from the town, robbed at night, and hid in the wooden house during the day to drink and have fun.

This man knew the whereabouts of his brother, who would sometimes sneak down the mountain to give his brother some looted silver.

As soon as it was dark on the day the official donated the silver, the elder brother went home to see his younger brother, and when he learned about the donation of 10,000 taels of silver, he carried his younger brother on his back to the Rige Temple two miles away from the town in the middle of the night.

The abbot who was woken up told him that the monastery had confiscated 10,000 taels of silver, and the official was entrusted by the abbot to get back the silver and prepare to expand the scale of the monastery, he thought the abbot was lying, and strangled the abbot in anger, and he searched the house and found no silver, so he put on a monk's robe that he had turned out, and returned to the town overnight and went to the official's house.

He touched into the main room, entered the house and threatened the officials to take out the silver, the officials were not afraid to reprimand his behavior, the desire was swollen and he was frenzied, he strangled the officials, and his wife fainted in fright, and finally he turned out ten thousand taels of silver, and fled home, he realized that he had committed a great crime, he hid the silver in the kang cave, told his younger brother to pay attention to the actions of the government, and after burning the monk's robe he took off, he fled to the mountains and forests overnight.

He didn't want his simple-minded brother to see that the monk's robe was made of excellent fabric, so he didn't want to burn it; he took out the silver from the kang cave to buy wine and meat, and feasted and drank; in order to observe the actions of the government for his brother, he was killed several times a day at the door of the official's house, and the Shiluo servants saw the flaws.

After the stupid brother explained all the things about his brother, he took the initiative to take the servant up the mountain to find his brother, and he smiled and boasted that he once went to his brother to ask for silver, and at once he found a hidden wooden house in the mountains and forests that his brother did not let him go.

After leaving the town and walking more than ten miles of mountain roads, Shi Servant led the "younger brother" to a wooden house in the mountains and forests.

The "younger brother" suddenly stepped back and said, "Master, several people here are very fierce, they all have knives in their hands, you can enter alone." ”

When the servant saw that the "younger brother" wanted to leave, he went up to him and grabbed him and said, "I will hide you first, and then release you when I have caught all the people in the wooden house." ”

He took his "younger brother" into the woods, tied his legs, feet and hands, and walked out of the woods.

A gust of mountain wind blew, sending a few hurried "whoops" of night owls, and the baby-like cries echoed through the mountains and forests.

Shi glanced at the bright moon at midnight, calmly walked to the front of the wooden house, and forced the door open, the door opened, and the bell on the door rang with it.

Five wicked men with short knives in their hands confronted Shi Shi Di in a clearing not far from the wooden house.

"Bald donkey, you break into a wooden house at night and look for death!" said a wicked man.

The servant looked at a wicked man and said, "There is no Shakyamuni Buddha in the south! The poor monk has come to save this benefactor from the sea of suffering!"

The case that was watched said with a weak heart: "Don't talk nonsense, Lao Tzu eats meat and drinks all day long and lives freely, how can there be any bitterness!"

The servant said: "The suffering in the mountains and forests is the suffering of the donor, the weeping and swollen eyes of those dead relatives are also the suffering of the donor, the pain of the yamen punishing the evil knife or the suffering of the donor, and the suffering of the repentant ants gnawing, all the unexpected sounds in this world are the suffering of the donor's horror, and the donor is already in the boundless sea of suffering." ”

"What kind of fart is this bald donkey putting out! Another villain said.

"Yes, he's found our lair and must kill him. The perpetrator said.

Five murderous murderers surrounded the servant land, and five short knives stabbed at the servant land.

Seeing this, Shi Shidi turned and ran into the woods, and Shi Shidi quickly entered the woods, and the five evil men followed closely into the woods.

After a cup of tea, Shi Servant walked out of the woods alone, and he rushed down the mountain, and a black shadow quickly disappeared into the mountain forest.

In the afternoon of the next day, all the monks who had been arrested in Rige Temple returned, and by this time the servants had already left for a long time.

One monk blamed the little monk who kept the temple for not keeping the great benefactor of the Rige Temple, and the other monk said: If you can't keep it, the great benefactor is a Bodhisattva sent by the Buddha to save us.

All the monks nodded their heads when they heard this, and then bowed in the direction of the servant's departure.

The five evil men who were knocked unconscious and tied to a tree in the mountains and forests ten miles away from the town were brought back by the official to handle the case, and the criminal Kangdong ten thousand taels of silver and the abbot's monk's robe were confiscated to the yamen as evidence, and the younger brother of the criminal pointed out the facts of his brother's crime on the spot, and the two murder cases were solved.
