Chapter 5 Renji Temple
When Su Zhuo and Qin Lei came to the gate of Renji Temple, it was already noon. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoInjesa Temple is located on the mountainside, and the pavilions extend to the top of the mountain. Just from the majestic temple gate, you can guess the majesty of the temple. A wide and flat avenue in front of the mountain gate winds to the foot of the mountain, which is convenient for good men and women who come to incense.
At this time, many people had gathered in front of the temple gate, but several warrior monks guarded the door and did not let anyone enter. Su Zhuo inadvertently caught a glimpse of a carriage parked not far from the side of the road, and when he looked closely, it turned out to be Ling Shuang's. The curtain of the car was rolled, revealing a fair-skinned and pretty face in the carriage, which was Su Qin. Su Zhuo felt slightly strange, and said secretly: "Why are they here?"
Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Ling Shuang's voice shouting: "Qin Zhutou, Brother Su, I didn't expect you to leave early in the morning and didn't call me, it's so unrighteous!"
When the two turned around, they saw Ling Shuang's face full of resentment, Qin Lei didn't see Su Qin in the car, and laughed: "Ling Gongzi and Miss Su have endless words, how can we take the liberty of disturbing them!"
Ling Shuang looked embarrassed, and Su Zhuo said, "Why did you come here?"
Ling Shuang took the opportunity to say: "Su Qin and I were originally going to go to Renji Temple to make incense and listen to the abbot's altar. Who knew that I heard early in the morning that the Buddha bone relics of Renji Temple had been stolen, so I hurried here!"
Su Zhuo let out an "oh", and Qin Lei said, "Then let's go in and have a look!"
The two agreed, and Ling Shuang went to invite Su Qin in the car. I saw that the Yiren were dressed as they were yesterday, and they were radiant. Qin Lei knew that Su Qin had been not far away, and he must have heard his joke about Ling Shuang, and he suddenly felt uncomfortable. However, Su Qin was generous, walked closer, blessed Qin Lei, and said softly: "This is Qin Zhutou!
Qin Lei's face was flushed, and he clenched his fists and said, "Girl...... The girl's name is like thunder......"
Su Qin hid her face and smiled, and glanced at Su Zhuo on the side, but as if she couldn't see it, she turned around and talked to Ling Shuang. Su Zhuo shrugged, only to feel that the woman's mind was really strange. Several people went to the mountain gate together, and there were already officials who separated the people and made way for them.
The warrior monk in front of the temple knew that he was here to handle the case, so he didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly let in. A delicate-looking novice continued in the temple gate, and saluted Qin Lei, saying, "Ladies and gentlemen, the little monk Huizhi, on the orders of the abbot, is waiting for you here. ”
Su Zhuo saw that there was a cleverness in the eyes of this little novice, and he really lived up to a wise word in his name. He suddenly became interested in this little monk, stared at Huizhi's bald head for a while, and suddenly his heart moved, as if he remembered something, thoughtful.
Qin Lei didn't think too much, waved at Huizhi, and said, "Okay! Take us to see your abbot!"
Huizhi replied, "Yes, please come with me." "Lead the way.
Qin Lei asked his subordinates to wait here, and only went to see the abbot with Ling Shuang and Su Zhuo. A group of five people bypassed the Daxiong Treasure Hall and went straight back. After walking for about half a pillar of incense, he passed through a moon gate and entered a courtyard.
Two women walked in front of them, dressed the same, and when they saw someone coming, they were busy standing on the side of the road and waiting. When everyone came closer, the two women saluted one by one, and said softly: "Adults Wanfu, two sons Wanfu, Miss Su are good!" The two didn't know Su Zhuo, so they nodded to him.
Su Zhuo only felt strange, and saw that the water in the courtyard was like a curved water, strange rocks, flowers and trees were all fine, as if he was in a mansion garden, and whispered: "Are there women in the temple? This is not like a monk's meditation room......"
Hui Zhi heard it clearly, turned his head and smiled, and said, "The donor is right, this is not a meditation room, but a guest room for pilgrims to live and rest. The two women are also the maids of Lu Gongzi, and they have nothing to do with this temple. During this period of time, Lu Gongzi fasted and worshiped the Buddha in this temple and lived here. At this moment, the abbot was talking to Lu Gongzi, and the little monk brought him here directly. ”
Su Zhuo understood, nodded, "oh", and suddenly said, "Then Gongzi Lu is the son of the prefect?"
Ling Shuang said strangely, "How do you know it's him?"
Su Zhuo said: "I think this Renji Temple is magnificent in scale, and the abbot must not be an ordinary person. The person who can make the abbot deign to come to the guest room is naturally either rich or noble, and it just so happens that his surname is Lu, not that Lu Gongzi, which Lu Gongzi can it be?"
He unconsciously glanced at Su Qin as he spoke, only to see her frowning, with a complicated expression on her face, obviously displeased when he heard that Lu Kang was also here. Hui Zhi nodded and said, "The donor is so smart, he can guess it." ”
Although Su Zhuo was right, there was no joy on his face. The other three people's faces became uglier than the other, and they each thought about their thoughts. Su Zhuo briefly guessed what they were thinking, and he didn't break it, so he could only wait and see what happened.
When I walked for a short time, I saw a monk and a layman sitting opposite each other in the pavilion in front of me, talking very happily. Hui Zhi saluted and said, "Abbot, Lord Headcatcher is here!"
The two people in the pavilion looked back when they heard the sound, and Lu Kang naturally knew each other. The abbot had white eyebrows, looked like he was over sixty years old, had a lot of wrinkles on his face, but was well maintained, his complexion was white and red, and his eyes were shining.
Qin Lei and the others first saluted the abbot Yuanxin and said, "The abbot is good!"
Yuan Xin got up to return the salute, but Lu Kang saw Ling Shuang and Su Qin standing together, his eyebrows jumped, and he smiled: "Isn't this Miss Su?
Su Qin didn't look at him, his eyes glanced to the side, and he was only slightly blessed. Su Zhuo looked at Lu Kang's expression, it really didn't look like he had eaten closed-door soup last night.
Lu Kang said to Ling Shuang again: "Isn't this the second son of the Ling family in Suzhou?
Ling Shuang greeted politely and said, "Gongzi Lu's name, Xiao Ke has also admired it for a long time!"
Su Zhuo was a little strange, and pondered: "This Lu Kang obviously knows Ling Shuang, why didn't he say hello last night? Is it just because he is angry with Su Qin?"
Su Zhuozheng was thinking nonsense, but Lu Kang had already changed his expression, and said to Qin Lei: "Qin Lei, why did you come here at this time? The Buddha treasure of Renji Temple was stolen, and you went to report it early in the morning, don't you care at all? How did you act as the head of this prison?"
Qin Lei snorted and said, "I have another big case to handle, and it is difficult for me to come here separately." Besides, you have no official position or position, do I need to report to you for anything?"
Lu Kang became angry and said angrily: "What are you talking about? You dare to say it again!"
Qin Lei is also a fiery temper, and he will have a seizure when he lands. Su Zhuo hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, and smiled at Lu Kang: "Why should Lu Gongzi be angry, isn't Qin Zhutou coming." Besides, the Renji Temple was stolen, the abbot was not in a hurry, and he could still have a good conversation with Lu Gongzi, why should Lu Gongzi be so anxious about justice and righteousness? According to Su, whether this Buddha treasure is lost or not, it is the same. When you don't lose it, the Buddha treasure is in the empty door, and if you lose it, it will fall into the red dust. In the Buddhist scriptures, it is said that emptiness is color, color is emptiness, and the empty door and red dust are not all the same? Besides, the Buddha treasure is in the temple, but it is only a monk who has shaded a temple, and now it has fallen into the red dust, but it is benevolent to thousands of people, shouldn't we be even more happy?"
Everyone was stunned by the words, and Yuan Xin Heshi laughed: "Good, good." The abyss of the donor's wisdom, the faint Zen machine, the old man admires!"
Lu Kang scolded: "What is lost or not lost? It's just a fart! Who are you? Qin Lei, why did you bring everything?"
Qin Lei said unhappily: "He was invited by me to assist in the case, his surname is Su Mingzhu, Su Gongzi!"
Lu Kang was stunned for a moment, and then said with a sneer: "Su Zhuo, oh, I heard that last year in Xiangxi, the case of the violent death of a team of officials was somewhat implicated in you!"
