Chapter 202 This is called magic, and it is also another form of stealing
Qin Wenyuan said: "You must all know what happened that night. The two monks have already said that after they discovered the sound, they rushed directly into the hall, but found nothing."
"It is not impossible for people with high kung fu skills to take advantage of this opportunity to escape from the main hall... But you arrived almost as soon as they rushed into the main hall."
"And there is only one way out of the temple, which is the way you came here."
"And there are many of you, but you haven't noticed anyone coming towards you, so this possibility is almost non-existent, let alone the abbot who presided over the temple and immediately sealed off the temple and dug three feet into the ground to search... Here
In this case, the thief who did not escape from the temple would have no place to hide!"
"So... all the circumstances can only show one thing, that is... there are no outside thieves, only thieves, the people in your temple, would let you search like that, but nothing will be gained."
"this……"
At this moment, even if Deyuan opened his mouth, he had nothing to say.
They are not stupid, so they listened to Qin Wenyuan's reasonable analysis and combined it with the situation that night.
They all knew that everything was just as Qin Wenyuan had guessed.
The probability of foreign thieves is too small!
So, are the real thieves really one of their own?
Thinking of this, these madmen subconsciously took a step back and looked at the others with vigilance.
Deyuan looked at Qin Wenyuan at this moment and did not dare to refute anymore. He hurriedly said: "Even if the thief is a monk in our temple, how did the thief escape with a sneak attack? After all, Lord Qin also said,
In that situation, the thief had no chance to escape."
The monks also looked at Qin Wenyuan, which was also puzzling to them.
Qin Wenyuan chuckled and said: "This matter is actually not complicated, it can be done easily."
"I would like to hear the details." Deyuan said hurriedly.
Qin Wenyuan said: "To do this, we need to create a panic situation, and all the monks gather together, but it is impossible to check in time whether everyone is there."
"So, the fire in the woodshed that night was not an accident. I speculate that the thief set the fire deliberately. The purpose was to cause trouble and let all of you monks gather there to put out the fire. At the same time, it was not sure whether everyone was here.
.”
"I think the overall process of the night was like this..."
Qin Wenyuan looked at these bald heads and said: "First of all, the thief made a timer ignition device in the woodshed. It is not difficult. For example, he can light an incense stick and then put the second half of the incense into kerosene.
, when the incense burns to the kerosene, the kerosene will be ignited, and the woodshed is full of dry firewood, so it will be too easy to burn."
"After completing the timing device, he found a suitable opportunity and hid in the main hall first, waiting quietly for the firewood shed to catch fire... What happened next was that the firewood shed caught fire, and everyone in the temple was alarmed, and then went to put out the fire in a panic."
.
"When the fire was out, everyone gathered together, and there was a chance to rest. The thief who stole the relics shouted directly to attract everyone's attention."
"I think...he was hiding here at that time."
As he spoke, Qin Wenyuan raised his hand and pointed at the beam above his head.
He said: "I just asked the dog to check it out. There was dust on the beams, and there were obvious footprints on the dust. So at that time, the thief was hiding on the beams."
"Then the monks came in. Because it was night, it was difficult to observe clearly on the beams. Not to mention that as soon as they came in, they were attracted by the loss of the relic, and it was even harder to observe other places."
"Then they were about to go out quickly. Just then, all of you came. Soon, the main hall was crowded with monks. It was a noisy place at that time. The thief took this opportunity to sneak in from the corner of the beam.
He fell silently and then quickly squeezed into the crowd..."
"Because the thief is also a monk, you will never have any suspicion in that chaotic situation. After that... you block the temple and investigate... you will naturally find nothing, because the thief who is investigating is hiding among you.
Hit!"
"As for why you can't find the relic..."
Qin Wenyuan once again raised her finger to point to the beam above, and she said calmly: "Because the relic was here at that time. As the saying goes, the darkest place under the lamp, or the most dangerous place, is the safest place!"
"You have searched the entire temple, but how could you have imagined that the relics never left the main hall?"
quiet!
Weird silence!
At this time, everyone looked at Qin Wenyuan with wide eyes.
They were completely shocked by Qin Wenyuan!
No one could find anything wrong with Qin Wenyuan's inference.
So, they all know that basically, the truth is what Qin Wenyuan said!
Only in this way can everything that happens next be reasonably explained!
cocoa……
But Qin Wenyuan didn't even have a quarter of an hour to get here.
Just listened to their story once!
Then everything was deduced directly!
This... if Qin Wenyuan was here that night, or if they invited Qin Wenyuan over that night...
Does that mean that the thief has been caught long ago?
The relic has been found long ago?
Why would they need so many days, so many people, and not even a single one could be found?
At this moment, even Abbot Dezhi felt huge waves in his heart.
He couldn't help but clasped his hands and said: "Amitabha, I have heard before that Lord Qin's ability to solve crimes is unparalleled in the world. When I see him today, I know that what he said is true."
He bowed deeply to Qin Wenyuan: "Poor monk, on behalf of everyone in Huasheng Temple, I ask Master Qin to help us find the thief and find the most precious Buddhist treasure!"
The other monks, with more than a hundred bald heads, all blinded Qin Wenyuan. They were completely convinced. They no longer dared to be disrespectful or suspicious. They all bowed and bowed: "Please ask Qin Wenyuan."
Sir, find the Buddhist treasure!"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Seeing this scene, Xu Gou couldn't help but said in his heart... These people just lack the beatings of society!
I dare to doubt the young master.
You know my young master’s great reputation?
What it felt like to have more than a hundred bald heads firing light waves at him, Qin Wenyuan just wanted to say, he was really going to be blinded.
Seeing everyone in Huasheng Temple attacking him with their bald heads, he was complaining happily in his heart, but his face was calm.
"Abbott, don't worry. Since I, Mr. Qin, have come, I will do my best to investigate. However, it has been a long time. The thieves hid the relics on the beams that night, but later took them away, and this
People come and go in the main hall, and the evidence is almost destroyed, so... I may be a little negative, but I still hope the abbot can be prepared."
Xu Gou was a little surprised when he heard Qin Wenyuan's words.
In his memory, his young master had never said any depressing words that could not solve the case.
Why would you say such negative words today?
He doesn't think his young master can't catch the thief.
After all, in such a short period of time, my young master already knew the methods of the perpetrators, and even determined the scope. With the young master's ability, Xu Gou felt that it was not a big problem to find the real culprit in a few hours.
But now the young master says this...
He was confused and felt that his young master was a little strange.
Dezhi and others did not know how terrifying Qin Wenyuan was, but they only felt that Qin Wenyuan's words made sense. It had been five days since the incident happened, and the evidence had long been gone. It was normal that Qin Wenyuan could not find the culprit in a short time.
So none of them doubted the intention behind Qin Wenyuan's words.
Dezhi clasped his hands together and said: "Amitabha, Lord Qin, please go ahead and do it. If you can find it, it will be the Buddha's blessing. If you can't find it, although it is a little sad, we have to use five thousand silver taels to redeem it."
Already."
Qin Wenyuan nodded and asked: "How long does the thief have left to agree with you?"
Dezhi said: "In the evening, there are less than four hours left before the deadline."
"Four hours?"
Qin Wenyuan nodded slightly: "I will try my best to investigate within these four hours. At that time, you may need the cooperation of all the masters."
"That's natural. All of us will fully cooperate with Lord Qin." Dezhi said.
Qin Wenyuan looked at Xu Gou and said: "Xugou, send some servants to ask the monks what they were doing when the crime occurred that night and whether anyone can prove it."
"Yes!" Xu Gou nodded quickly, and then sent someone to inquire.
Qin Wenyuan looked at Dezhi again and said: "Master Abbot, the thief contacted you three days ago and asked you to prepare a ransom. I wonder how he contacted you?"
Dezhi took out a letter from his arms and said: "Three days ago, a child ran into our temple and gave us this letter. We didn't pay attention to it at first, but when we opened the letter, we discovered this
It turned out to be the thief who wrote to us, asking us to prepare a ransom of 100,000 yuan to redeem the treasure of our temple."
"Then we asked the child who gave him the letter, but the child said he didn't know, but that a man whose whole body was covered by a black robe bribed the child with a bunch of candied haws and asked the child to send it."
Qin Wenyuan thought for a moment and nodded slowly: "It seems that the thief is quite cautious."
Using children to deliver letters, what can a child remember?
In this way, it is completely impossible to trace the source.
Qin Wenyuan opened the letter and saw that the content above was very simple.
That is to say, he has the relics of Huasheng Temple. If he wants the relics, he will raise five thousand silver taels in the evening three days later, and then wait for his next notification.
That's all.
But at the back, there is actually a signature.
There are four words in the signature - heir of the stolen family!
Qin Wenyuan narrowed his eyes.
Robbers... Another news from various schools of thought...
There are hundreds of schools of thought in the Qin Dynasty. It is said that there are hundreds of schools of thought, but in fact the number is more than one hundred.
And not only those orthodox doctrines can become the leading ideological trend, but also some people who take the opposite direction also show their brilliance in that era.
Among them, thieves are an existence that is not recognized by orthodoxy, but cannot be ignored.
To steal is to steal!
What thieves focus on is stealing ill-gotten wealth to benefit all people in the world!
It is similar to many later film and television works about thieves.
Dezhi said: "Looking at the signature, it says heirs of the thief family. It seems that the thief must be a thief from a hundred families."
"I just heard that thieves always steal ill-gotten gains. I wonder why he wanted to steal my Buddhist sacred relics?"
Qin Wenyuan glanced at Dezhi and said, "It wasn't done by thieves. You were deceived."
"What?" Dezhi was stunned, and he puzzled: "Why did Lord Qin say that it was not done by thieves? He could steal the relics and the signature of the letter without anyone noticing in our important place in Buddhism. Apart from the thieves,
, who else could it be?”
Qin Wenyuan didn't bother to explain, he just raised his hand and turned it in front of Dezhi's eyes.
Then he said calmly: "Abbot Dezhi, you should understand now, right?"
"Uh, what do you understand?" Dezhi was completely confused. He had no idea what Qin Wenyuan was doing.
Qin Wenyuan said helplessly: "Master Abbot, don't you think you are missing something?"
"Less?"
Suddenly, his eyes suddenly widened and his expression changed instantly.
He immediately lowered his head and looked, and saw that the prayer beads that were spinning in his hand just now had disappeared!
"This this……"
He looked at Qin Wenyuan with a surprised look on his face.
Qin Wenyuan spread his hands and saw a string of Buddhist beads lying intact on Qin Wenyuan's palm.
Abbot Dezhi was immediately stunned.
He looked at Qin Wenyuan in disbelief and said, "Master Qin, this... what is going on?"
Qin Wenyuan threw the beads casually, and Abbot Dezhi hurriedly caught the beads.
Qin Wenyuan slowly walked out and said calmly: "This is called magic. It can be said to be another method of stealing. Of course, it is a new thing for you, so don't be too entangled."
"Although stealing skills are not popular on the stage, I have to say that some methods are really superb, and you have just experienced it yourself."
"Even a layman like me can easily steal your prayer beads in front of your eyes without you noticing at all, so you think..."
Qin Wenyuan narrowed his eyes slightly: "If he is a real heir of the thieves and wants to steal your relics, does he need to mobilize troops like this? Is it arson or something?"
"This...this, this, this..."
Dezhi frowned and began to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.
After a while, he sighed and said: "Master Qin, what you said makes sense. It seems that the thief deliberately framed the heirs of the thieves family, or that he deliberately deceived us so that we could not know his true identity.
identity?"
The voice fell.
Qin Wenyuan chuckled lightly and stood at the door of the hall, looking at the pilgrims coming and going in front of him.
A meaningful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "The thieves are from bandits, and their people are not good at doing anything good. If they did this, then it would be okay..."
