Acting as a god and Buddha: starting from Guanzi

Chapter 24 Investigation
The next day, when Meng Yuan opened the door, he didn't see the elder brother's witty words sweeping the floor, but Commander Lu was posing in a boxing box in the yard with his upper body shirtless, as if he was doing morning exercises.

Every breath is like a dormant dragon, the black meridians under the skin are coiled in circles, and a layer of blood qi and rainbow light penetrates the body, which immediately arouses the blood in Meng Yuan's body, which seems to be boiling.

This Commander Lu must be a murderous figure!
Meng Yuan made a judgment in his heart, but now that he has gained more experience in practicing the Lotus Heart Sutra, it may be difficult for him to hurt others. After all, this practice is not heavy on killing, but it is even more difficult to hurt him.

With his current merit, not to mention that all dharmas are invulnerable, but it is still easy to eliminate some abnormalities in his body.

Not long after, Commander Lu closed his fists, put the robe on his body, and looked at Meng Yuan with a little surprise: "Little master is so determined."

In the past, others didn't dare to get close to him when he was practicing. Unexpectedly, this little monk didn't seem to be affected at all.

Meng Yuan bowed and said, "Commander Lu is good at cultivation."

The two complimented each other, and Lu Guangming then asked tentatively: "With my master's superb Buddhist teachings, I should be able to enter the big temples of Fa Sect. How can I condescend in this small temple?"

There is nothing to hide about this, he will know when he entered the sect after a little investigation, so he truthfully told Lu Guangming that he has only practiced for more than a month.

a month?

Lu Guangming looked at Meng Yuan's leaving back, and seemed to be thinking about something in his eyes, then made up his mind, turned and walked towards the old monk's meditation room.

After breakfast, Meng Yuan was correcting Manzhu's pronunciation. She has been reciting the Heart Sutra continuously for the past few days so that she will not relapse easily.

The old monk once saw it, and only said that the abnormality on Manzhu's body was not a disease, but more like a curse.

As for the curse, unless one knows how to solve it, no matter how advanced the cultivation base is, there is no way. It is unexpected that the Duoxin Sutra can suppress the curse.

"Master, it's so difficult to recite the Great Compassion Mantra!" Manzhu complained, and the weird syllables didn't sound like human speech at all.

"The pronunciation is just to make it easier for you to understand the true meaning of Buddhism. When you really realize it one day, the words in the Buddhist scriptures will not be important."

At this moment, Commander Lu and the old monk Huiming came hand in hand.

"That said, the young master really wants to go with me."

Meng Yuan looked at his master, and the old monk explained: "Commander Lu wants you to follow him to investigate the corpse king's matter."

Commander Lu said: "Don't worry, little master, I won't tell you to run for nothing, you will be rewarded."

Meng Yuan nodded without saying anything. It was very dangerous outside, but since Jing Yesi was there, it was undoubtedly much safer. At least the Wang family would not come to trouble him.

Besides, if you go out for a walk, you should be able to accumulate some merit. You can't just sit at home.

And the little apprentice Manzhu naturally wants to go with him.

After returning to the house, I packed a few clothes, made a bundle and carried it on my back, and then left with Commander Lu.

Before leaving, he turned around and said goodbye to his master and two senior brothers. Miao Le seemed to have something else in mind, but he couldn't say much in front of a few people.

"Junior brother, take care of yourself and come back early if you encounter danger."

Meng Yuan nodded: "Second senior brother, don't worry, even the monsters will look down on the little monk's meat."

The two point to each other, but in the eyes of others, it is brotherly love.

After saying goodbye, Meng Yuan led Man Zhu and Commander Lu to leave the temple for Luoxia Town, where his subordinates were waiting for him.

Meng Yuan came to the town with the old monk on the last Buddha's birthday. Now, it has only been a month, and the people in the town seem to have completely forgotten the horror of that night.

People from all walks of life are well-organized, and there are people coming and going in those houses that were once hung with white silk, so there is no taboo.

Jingyesi's people live in the inn in the town. Lu Guangming brought a total of more than 20 people this time, all of whom were elite captains. Their primary goal was the valley where the Corpse King Sect once refined corpses.

Cui Liang led the way, and the group quickly left the town and arrived at the valley at noon.

"The Yin Corpse Cemetery is indeed the layout of the Corpse King Sect." Commander Lu couldn't help but said coldly when he saw the chaotic and orderly corpse pits in the valley and the corpse-suppressing spells on the walls.

And Jing Yesi is worthy of being a professional. He can do feng shui, trace the murderer, and even simulate the scene. He can almost restore what happened that night.

"Commander, the remnants of the Corpse King's Sect must require huge resources to refine corpses in this valley, and there must be someone in the local area who is collaborating with him."

"The thief will definitely not be able to go far with a group of corpse monsters. I'm afraid he is still hiding in a very dark place in Nanhai County."

Lu Guangming didn't hesitate at all: "Immediately notify the governor of Nanhai County and ask him to mobilize heavy troops to strictly investigate the crossings."

"Also, Yu Anzhi, you lead a team to the county town to secretly investigate who is secretly colluding with the Corpse King Sect. Zhang Tai, you are proficient in Feng Shui Yin and Yang, follow me to track down the whereabouts of the corpse demons, and the rest will wait. Wait for orders at any time in Luoxia Town."

"Yes!"

Lu Guangming looked at Meng Yuan beside him and said, "Is Narcissus Village near here?"

"Exactly, let me take Commander Lu there."

Then Commander Lu, the school lieutenant named Zhang Tai, and Meng Yuan, the master and apprentice, went to Narcissus Village in light clothes.

"Eh? The holy monk is here."

An aunt who was working in the vegetable field at the entrance of the village shouted with joy when she saw Meng Yuan. Her husband was one of the twenty zombies.

"Aunt Yu, this is Commander Lu from the government. I came here this time to learn about some things that happened back then. I wonder if Aunt Li is here?"

Aunt Li is Li Shi, the daughter-in-law of the village chief.

"Sister-in-law Li is here, I will take you there."

Even after leading a few people towards Li's house, they were still shouting loudly that the little holy monk was coming, and every household who heard it all gathered together.

Not long after, more than 100 people were seen crowding outside the courtyard of the Li family.

Mrs. Li nervously brought several bowls of hot tea to offer. Lu Guangming took it and said with a smile, "You don't have to be nervous. I came here just to ask about the corvées back then."

Meng Yuan also said at the side: "Aunt Li, don't worry, if you have any grievances, Commander Lu can make the decision for you."

Mrs. Li glanced at him and said with a firm mind: "My lord, our village is really miserable. At that time, the government ordered the people to be forced into corvée. My husband left ten years ago, and my son five years ago. Nothing happened. I thought so."

The rest of the people also wept and cursed, after all, who would want their relatives to become something like a corpse demon, who would never be reborn forever?

"Corvée? Who came to sign the signs, where to do things, and official documents? Who is the county magistrate?"

It's just that it's difficult for these villagers. They don't even know a few words, and they can't read official documents clearly. As for the name of the county magistrate, they don't even know it.

Lu Guangming already had a clue after hearing this, and immediately asked Zhang Tai to inform Yu Anzhi to investigate who the magistrate of Gaoling County was five and ten years ago.

Unexpectedly, this will be rewarding from the very beginning.
