After receiving the order from Wei Zheng, Chang'an County Lieutenant Li Wei did not dare to delay at all. He rode a fast horse and rushed out of Danfeng Gate, and then rushed directly to the edge of the crime scene.
After paying homage to Wei Zheng, Li Wei quickly got into work mode and asked directly for help.
"Master Wu, can you summon spirits?"
Helpless, his face was ashen, he had already tried it, and he replied with a sad look on his face.
"I've tried it, but it doesn't work. Senior brother is already out of his mind!"
In other words, the shortcut of asking the dead is no longer feasible.
Li Wei didn't feel disappointed either, he even felt like it should have been this way.
After all, the deceased was a sixth-level master. Anyone who could kill him silently must be very strong. It would be strange if he didn't know how to eradicate the weeds.
"What about the time of death?"
"About an hour ago."
"Are you sure?"
"I'm sure, because it was Senior Brother Wuzhi who led us to chant sutras and pray for blessings. I heard Senior Brother's voice suddenly stopped. I was worried that something was wrong, so I looked over immediately, and then I found that Senior Brother's breath disappeared."
Li Wei held his chin and murmured.
"In other words, the thief killed the ignorant master instantly, without letting him make any sound, or even letting you notice anything strange?"
"Yes."
Li Wei was a little troubled and had no clue, so he could only find another way.
"Everyone disperse, Master Wu, you all sit back in your seats..."
Recreating the crime scene shows that this county lieutenant knows how to solve crimes.
That's right, I can't do an autopsy, otherwise I wouldn't have left the body untouched now.
The crowd dispersed, and a group of monks sat back down.
There are people everywhere in the southeast, northwest and northwest.
The deceased Master Wuwu sat facing south, with a group of monks behind him. Master Wuwu sat at the end of the group of monks, and the two sat far apart.
After seeing the situation clearly, Li Wei continued to give instructions.
"You continue to step back, and everyone nearby should sit back down."
After a while, the scene was finally restored completely.
There are monks on the left, right and behind the deceased, but there is a Taoist priest in front.
Li Wei looked across from the deceased. A hundred meters away, there was an old Taoist priest with immortal style, facing here, and he asked.
"Who is the Taoist Priest?"
"The old way is pure, and the Qingfeng Temple presides over it."
Qingfeng Temple is located outside Chang'an City. It is said that there are several high-level cultivators in the temple whose strength is ranked among the best in Chang'an City, and they are also involved with famous families in Chang'an City.
The same goes for Putuo Temple, the two are equally powerful.
Li Wei sighed in his heart, he couldn't be offended. This case was really frustrating to handle, so he had to ask softly.
"Priest Qingjing, I wonder if you saw anything strange?"
Taoist priest Qingjing said bluntly.
“I have never seen it and I don’t want to see it!”
Li Wei was shocked and asked.
"What does the Taoist Master mean by this?"
Taoist Priest Qingjing knew he would be suspicious, but he didn't care and said with a free and easy expression.
"Putuo Temple and Qingfeng Temple have always been at odds with each other! I don't look at him with contempt."
You speak so straightforwardly!
Li Wei couldn't help but look weird and said with a wry smile.
"Taoist Priest is... so candid!"
At the same time, the suspicion in his heart also diminished a lot.
The old Taoist priest looked unconcerned and said openly.
"This matter is not a secret. Everyone knows it. There is nothing that cannot be said."
He was chatted to death that day, and Li Wei couldn't continue to ask questions.
Wei Zheng stood aside and watched everything quietly.
Although he is not good at solving crimes, he cannot leave. Without him in charge, Li Wei is only at the third level of cultivation, but he cannot control the situation.
Soon, Wu Zuo also arrived. He had no horse to ride, no cultivation, and only relied on two legs. He could run here fast enough now.
After he breathed enough, he immediately began to conduct an autopsy on the deceased.
This case is important, time is urgent, and cannot be delayed.
At this time, Wei Zheng's thoughts had already drifted away, and he was not paying attention to the case itself at all.
He was more concerned about the impact of this murder on him and the construction of Daming Palace.
What will the emperor think, what will the civil and military officials think, and what will the common people think?
What happened... is so sad!
After a while, a eunuch came in a hurry.
"Zheng Guogong..."
Wei Zheng waved his hand and asked.
"No need to talk nonsense, what are your orders, Your Majesty?"
"His Majesty was furious and ordered a thorough investigation."
Wei Zheng asked with a frown.
"How to arrange the arrangements for so many people?"
"Your Majesty said, let the Duke of the State make a distinction. Those with low cultivation levels will be put back first, while those with advanced cultivation levels will be temporarily kept and then put under unified supervision."
Wei Zheng nodded, agreed, and said.
"I see."
Wei Zheng closed his eyes, and the next moment, an astonishing spiritual consciousness suddenly erupted and spread, covering everyone present.
A sense of panic arose in everyone's heart, they dared not speak and were dumbfounded.
After a thousand years, this powerful spiritual consciousness shrank back again.
Wei Zheng opened his eyes, selected a group of people, most of them were old men, and then said to the others.
"You should go back first. You are not allowed to leave Chang'an City during this period. Try to stay at home for consultation!"
"yes."
Ye Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, when the phaseless magic power was in the body, outsiders could not detect it.
Otherwise, not only would he not be able to go back today, but he would also most likely be treated as a suspect, and he would also be the one with the greatest suspicion.
There is no way, whoever here has the highest cultivation level.
Many monks and Taoists exited in an orderly manner. Ye Yuanben was at the very back and was also the last group to leave.
Gradually, there were fewer and fewer people. Wei Zheng's bright eyes accidentally glanced at a bald head and he said with some doubts.
"Am I dazzled?"
In just a moment, Wei Zheng rejected this idea, because he, a master at the peak of the ninth level, could not be dazzled by a being who could even unleash the power of an immortal god above the ninth level.
"Li Wei, go check..."
"yes."
…
As soon as he returned to Bodhi Temple, Ye Yuan let his daughter out. As soon as she came out, she had fun and was very happy.
These days, Ye Yuan needs to chant sutras and pray for blessings during the day, so Ye Yuan is not at ease if she is left alone in Bodhi Temple.
Therefore, she had no chance to come out, and she was already suffocated.
Seven years have passed, and Nannan is still a small one. She is only one centimeter taller and cute. However, her mind is like that of a seven or eight-year-old.
After all, he is half ghost and half Buddha, and his growth process is completely different from that of human beings.
Her little body was flying around the Bodhi Temple, having a great time.
At this time, Dialectical, who entered the door later, was about to take the notice, but Ye Yuan stopped him.
"Senior brother, don't open the door these days. Let's wait until the matter is completely over."
"Uh, okay."
After closing the door, Dialectian's eyes were dull. He was still struggling. It wasn't until the two of them sat in the main hall that he asked.
"Junior brother, what will happen to Master if we all leave? What will happen to Bodhi Temple?"
Ye Yuan suggested very casually.
"You can take Master with you, or you can close the temple door, or find other monks to take care of it."
Dialectical was still worried and said hesitantly.
"Otherwise, junior brother, you can go alone, I will guard the Bodhi Temple!"
Ye Yuan was speechless. He proposed to travel around the world, wasn't it just for his sake?
Ye Yuan has always been accompanied by someone, and he also has rich experiences, unlike Dialectical, who lacks experience.
If that's the case, how about another method?
"Then, senior brother, do you dare to travel alone?"
"Junior brother, what do you mean?"
"I guard the Bodhi Temple."
Dialectical was very surprised. He always thought that his junior brother was unwilling to be lonely and wanted to go out and relax.
"Ah, otherwise we won't even go."
Ye Yuan shook his head and said.
"Brother, cultivating Buddhism means cultivating the mind. If you want to cultivate the mind, you can't do it by sticking to this place."
"What about Master?"
"Master also traveled a lot when he was young and had extremely rich experiences."
Dialectical or hesitant.
"What about you, junior brother?"
"The Buddha I cultivate is different from you and Master."
Dialectical said that he did not understand.
"Isn't it all about cultivating the mind?"
Ye Yuan was helpless, glanced at the stupa, and said in his heart: Master, I'm sorry.
The next moment, a chicken drumstick appeared in Ye Yuan's hand, a fragrant hot chicken drumstick.
"Junior brother, you..."
Ye Yuan took a sip, and a rich aroma spread completely, making it look particularly attractive.
