Chapter 65

"You just ask these three people to help me?" The old monk's tone could not hear dissatisfaction, but it was full of doubts.

"No, he's the only one!" Prince Xiang pointed at Qin Wubing: "Enough!"

The old monk quickly put down the tea bowl, got up and walked in front of Qin Wubing, and looked him up and down carefully.

Qin Wubing was a little embarrassed, he couldn't help but cleared his throat, and said in a low voice: "Master, wisdom is not on your body."

"Oh?" The old monk's eyes were wide open, stretching out the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes: "Where do you usually put that thing?"

Qin Wubing took a peek at Prince Xiang, who was smiling at the corner of his eyes, as if he was watching a play.

"I can't tell anyone about this. If someone with a malicious heart steals it, I will lose the ability to eat."

"Oh? You rely on this thing for food?" The old monk was full of interest, and he didn't look like he was going to talk about something serious.

"I can't carry it with my hands, I can't carry it with my shoulders, I can't speak clearly, and I feel flustered when I write. This is the only wisdom left. If there is no more, I can only starve to death!"

"Your family is full of money, you won't die of starvation!" Lin Huai laughed twice after finishing speaking, but was a little puzzled when he found no one responded.

"Oh? Your family is a nobleman?"

Qin Wubing waved his hands again and again, thinking that if he didn't go back to the topic, he might still be having fun with the old monk when it was dark, so he hurriedly said:
"The family is just an ordinary merchant, and some scattered silver. The prince ordered me to come to the servant. It must be that the master has encountered a difficult problem. I don't know if the sesame oil money was lost in the temple, or an unknown corpse was found near the temple?"

"Oh? You can guess what happened without a single word? I really like this doll!" In the second half of the sentence, the old monk turned his head and yelled at Prince Xiang.

Qin Wubing cared about this title very much!I couldn't help but my heart was galloping, and I thought to myself: You are a baby, your whole family is a baby!

"Let's go, accompany the old monk for a while!" The old monk said, holding Qin Wubing's shoulders and going to the door.

Qin Wubing shrank his neck, squatted down, escaped from the old monk's arms, and turned to look at Prince Xiang.

Prince Xiang waved his hand and said:

"Go! Because of this matter, he is annoying me to death. First, the Governor of Wuzhou personally investigated the case, and then Xie Yu sent people to investigate the case, but none of them found Chou Yinmao. Go and see, if you can find out With this result, I can also cleanse my ears!"

Qin Wubing pointed to Lin Huai and Guo Yi again.

"go together!"

……

The old monk was excited like a child, riding on the horse and chattering all the way, Qin Wubing understood the outline of the case, Lin Huai heard that someone was following all the way, Guo Yi recognized who the old monk was.

The three of them were very serious along the way, and when they arrived at Tiantai Temple, ten miles east of Wuzhou City, the three of them remembered, why did they come out on an empty stomach?

Regardless of whether they were hungry or not, the old monk led the three of them directly to the back mountain of Tiantai Temple, pointed to the halfway up the mountain and said, "It's right there. Last winter, the monks in the temple came to the back mountain to collect firewood, and accidentally found..."

"Master! You have mentioned these things several times during the journey. Eleven corpses, including men and women, old and young, have decayed. However, these corpses are no longer here. What are you bringing me to see? It happened half a year ago, and there are countless people who have been to the back mountain before and after, is there any difference between this place and before the body was found? What, is there still time for fasting in the temple?"

The old monk was taken aback for a moment, then laughed loudly and said, "I like you very much, baby!"

"Catch Qin Wubing quickly!"

"The baby is not afraid of illness, let Lao Jiu find someone to treat you, tell me quickly, can you see who the murderer is?"

"I'm not a fairy!"

"I'm not afraid of gods, my Tiantai Temple is comparable to a fairyland, so it doesn't matter if a baby lives for a hundred years!"

"Don't call me Baby, I'm Qin Wubing!"

"It doesn't sound good, it's better to be a doll!"

"Old monk, if you are like this, don't blame me for disrespecting the old and loving the young!"

"Which one of us is older?"

"You, good! You prepare some food for me first, and when I am full, we will fight again!"

The old monk laughed out loud, very pleased with himself.

……

Tiantai Temple is built on the mountain, the whole temple is hidden in the green trees, and only the bluish-gray hall ridge can be seen faintly at the foot of the mountain.

All the way up the stairs, the old monk and Lin Huai walked very easily, but Qin Wubing and Guo Yi were miserable.

In the middle of the walk, Qin Wubing suddenly realized the problem, and he immediately shouted: "Wait first! Let me ask you, old monk, after we finish eating, do we still have to go down the mountain by the same path?"

"Otherwise? If the doll can fly, I won't stop it." The old monk smiled happily.

Qin Wubing sat down on the steps and said: "You order someone to send the food to the back mountain for me, the case is important, I'll take a look first..."

Before Qin Wubing finished speaking, he felt himself soaring into the air, his feet struggling to touch the ground, the old monk let go, and then said unhappily: "I hate people who pamper their children the most in my life. The child should be raised as male or female!"

"I told you before, I can't carry it with my hands, I can't carry it on my shoulder..."

"You didn't say you couldn't lift your legs!" The old monk said with a smirk, "Why don't I tell Lao Jiu to let you stay with me in this temple for decades, waiting for you Once you can lift your legs, I'll let you go back!"

"Thank you!" Qin Wubing gritted his molars, finished speaking fiercely, and walked up in a muffled voice.

Soon, Qin Wubing and Guo Yi were left behind again.

Guo Yi breathed out and said to Qin Wubing in a low voice: "You, also, don't be upset! You offended me, I'm sorry!"

"I'm not stupid!"

"Since you know, you still don't care if you are big or small!"

"Didn't you find out that he doesn't mind this kind of big or small?"

"Are you confident in this case?"

"no!"

Guo Yi bent over tiredly, put his hands on his knees, and panted desperately.

"You are not as good as me." Qin Wubing said with disgust.

"I was thinking, I'm so tired, what are you trying to do?"

Indeed, what is the picture?

The three of them managed to go up the mountain, drank a bowl of vegetable soup, drank a bowl of rice porridge, and filled themselves with water. Qin Wubing took time to look around and looked around the temple. One of the monks took him down the mountain again and came to the halfway up the back mountain.

Qin Wubing felt that half his life was gone, and his legs kept trembling. He stood in the woods, looked at the scene of the burial as if nothing had happened, sighed three times, and squatted under the tree beside him , Deep introspection!Why did you go up the mountain just now?
The old monk didn't follow him down the mountain, and the monk stood aside and didn't know what to say. Guo Yilei didn't want to say a word. Lin Huai had rarely seen such a forest before, and he was lost in the forest for a while, feeling very happy.

The surroundings were quiet and the oxygen was sufficient. Qin Wubing calmed down quickly. He rubbed his face and raised his head to ask the monk, "Do you pick up all the firewood you need every day from this back mountain?"

The monk shook his head: "In previous years, there were benefactors who offered to send firewood. We didn't need to collect firewood. I don't know why there was less firewood last winter, so we went to the back mountain to collect firewood."

"This back mountain is accessible to everyone?"

"Of course not! The front and back mountains belong to Tiantai Temple, and idlers are not allowed to enter."

"Aren't temples maintained by incense money? Idlers are not allowed to enter. What do you eat if no one comes to burn incense?"

Guo Yi hurriedly said: "This is a royal temple, and there is no need for incense money."

Qin Wubing nodded clearly and asked again: "Since idlers are not allowed to enter, are there enough guards?"

"Aren't you asking nonsense?" Lin Huai came back from playing without knowing where, and suddenly appeared and said:

"It's said to be a royal temple. If the guards are not strict, it will damage the royal face! In this forest, let alone people, I haven't seen a single rabbit! But the scenery is so beautiful!" Lin Huai sighed intoxicatedly: "Not far away There is a small pavilion here, standing in the pavilion and looking up, it is beautiful, and it is also beautiful from a distance, oh, it is so beautiful!"

Qin Wubing looked up at Lin Huai, and swallowed the sarcasm on his lips. He doesn't have much strength now, so let's save it to ask about the case.
