Dayong Nu sentenced to death

Chapter 129 Step through the iron shoes and find nowhere

"Dare to ask Master, does Abbot Huishan have any enemies?"

Su Rao asked.

Hui Ding shook his head without hesitation, "Brother grew up in the temple since he was a child, and rarely had contact with the outside world. He is gentle and tolerant, and never cares about it. Not to mention that he has made enemies with others, and he has rarely even quarreled."

Such a person, really can't think of who would kill him!
"The abbot had a fatal wound running through his chest and back, and he was killed in one blow. However, the cassock on his body was not damaged or bloodstained, as if it had been changed. The murderer deliberately pretended that he was alive to delay time. There must be a plan."

What can a monk who eats fast and prays to Buddha all day long be worth paying attention to?
Thinking so, Su Rao began to walk around in the meditation room.

Seeing her like this, Yan Yun didn't bother her. When Hui Ding saw the token, he knew that the people in front of him had unusual backgrounds. Although he didn't know why they intervened in the case, it was a good thing for the temple.

Find the murderer as soon as possible, and senior brother Quan Xia will know, so that he can rest in peace.

For a moment.

Su Rao stood up and said to the two of them: "There are no traces of fighting or blood in the house, nor did they deal with it specially. The abbot was not killed here!"

The meditation room is not the scene of the first murder!

"This……"

Master Hui Ding frowned, "Then now..."

The abbot is not here, he is the only person in the ancient Buddhist temple who can stabilize the overall situation, but he doesn't know how to investigate cases, and he doesn't know what to do next!
Su Rao looked at Yan Yun, and was about to speak, when Yan Yun said, "Just do what you want."

"it is good."

She nodded, and said to Master Huiding: "Master, please gather all the monks in the temple together. Since he was killed two days ago and moved his body here, he must have gone out."

"First find out who saw him at that time!"

Hui Ding saw that although she was young, she spoke and acted in a very orderly manner, and she seemed to be quite trusted by the nobleman, so she clapped her hands in response, and turned to go to work.

When he went out, the bamboo banquet just came in, "Young Master, Master Huiding ordered the monks to surround the temple. The nearest place is Qingxian County. According to the round-trip distance, if the officers and soldiers are going to arrive, it must be at least noon." .”

"How about the pilgrims?"

Yan Yun asked.

"There is nothing unusual about gathering in groups of three or four to discuss."

"Order the guards to keep an eye on it."

"Yes."

Zhu Yan took the order to leave, and when Yan Yun turned his head, he saw Su Rao straightening Master Hui Shan's hands and feet, supporting the body and laying it flat on the couch.

After doing this, she slowly straightened up.

Thoughtful.

Soon, news came from Huiding that all the staff had been gathered in the main hall and they were invited to come over.

There are 120 or eight monks in the ancient Buddhist temple, and one person is not bad.

After some cross-examination.

Indeed, some monks had seen him around Shen time on the third day of October.

"The little monk was cleaning at the time, and saw the master abbot going in the direction of the Buddhist scriptures pavilion."

"Yes, yes, the little monk saw it too."

Several monks in a row confirmed this sentence, and Su Rao called the monk guarding the Sutra Pavilion for questioning.

Looking at the monk in his early thirties, he was thin and weak, and a gust of wind seemed to blow him down.

"Poor monk Huizhi, I have met two benefactors."

He salutes with palms together.

Su Rao and Yan Yun slightly nodded their heads in greeting, Su Rao said: "Master comes from the generation of Hui, so you are of the same generation as the abbot and Master Hui Ding?"

"Yes, they are all brothers of the poor monk."

Hui Zhi replied softly.

Su Rao sized him up for a moment, "Did the abbot really go to the Buddhist scriptures Pavilion that day?"

"I've been there."

Huizhi nodded.

"Why?"

"Brother wants to find an ancient scripture."

"When did he leave?"

She asked.

"After finding the scriptures, I left... I didn't waste too much time."

This answer made Su Rao frowned, "What's the name of that scripture?"

Huizhi thought for a while and replied, "It seems to be "Jushe Lun."

"No one knows the arrangement of the books in this Sutra Pavilion better than the abbot brother. I glanced at him when he left, and I shouldn't be wrong."

"is it?"

After thinking about it carefully in Su Rao's mind, she was sure that she had never seen this book in Huishan's meditation room, that is to say, after he picked up the scriptures in the Sutra Pavilion, he went to other places?
But when we asked the monks in the hall, everyone saw him go out, but never saw him go back.

"When Master Huishan left, did he say where he was going?"

Su Rao looked at Hui Zhi and asked.

Huizhi hesitated for a moment, then shook his head.

This slight change in his expression could fool other people, but it couldn't fool Su Rao's and Yan Yun's eyes.

"Master Huiding, I've finished asking what I want to ask, let everyone leave."

After pondering for a while, Su Rao said softly.

Hui Ding didn't ask much, and waved directly to the monks. The monks all saluted and dispersed quickly.

Just when Hui Zhi was about to leave, Su Rao moved to block him, her eyes were clear, and she said calmly: "Master, do you really have nothing to say?"

This person is weak and short of breath, and it is difficult to hide his wheezing when speaking.

With such a body, let alone carrying the abbot's body on his back to avoid the crowd and returning to the meditation room, even walking two extra steps would be very uncomfortable.

People are not killed by him.

When mentioning Huishan's death, he had nothing but grief in his eyes, so Su Rao left everyone alone and left him alone, not because he suspected that he was related to the case, but because of some unknown reason, his last question did not tell the truth. talk.

"The abbot was killed after leaving the library."

Su Rao stared at him and said, "So, let me ask again, master, do you know where the abbot went after that?"

Only she, Yan Yun, Master Huiding and the fainted little monk Jingming knew the details of the case.

Most of the others don't know the truth.

She purposely said this sentence to remind him not to hide it, so as not to delay the search for the real culprit.

Huizhi was really stunned.

"Brother, he was killed after he left Cangshu Pavilion, this, how could this be...he..."

"Where did he go?"

Su Rao accentuated her tone a little.

Huizhi stared at her blankly for a long time, until she was sure that she had no intention of lying, she struggled again and again, and sighed as if accepting her fate: "He went to the back mountain!"

"What are you going to do in the back mountain?"

Su Rao asked.

"Go and deliver medicine to a girl."

Now that the topic has been opened, there is no need to hide it, let alone the death of the abbot, Huizhi said cruelly: "Two years ago, the husband brought back a girl and secretly placed her in a thatched cottage in the back mountain. .”

"Tell me to take care of her a little bit, and don't reveal her existence to anyone."

girl!

It was still two years ago!
Isn't this the person they are looking for?
I searched the entire temple and searched for everyone, but it turns out that she is not in the temple, but lives in the back mountain...

Su Rao suddenly felt absurd, "Master please take me to the thatched cottage in the back mountain."
