Chapter 203 Catching wind and shadow, Qin Wenyuans enlightenment
Qin Wenyuan said with a half-smile, "That's interesting. At the same time, hundreds of schools of thought emerged one after another. As the saying goes, it's better to believe that they exist than to believe that they don't exist. I'll take these hundreds of schools of thought as if they really exist."
"Now, every family needs something to tell the world about their return, so if the thieves are framed like this, they may not be able to endure it."
"Next, let's take a look."
When Dezhi heard Qin Wenyuan's meaningful words, he suddenly felt goosebumps rising.
He was a little worried and said: "Master Qin, what do you mean..."
Qin Wenyuan smiled and said: "Don't worry, Master Abbot, I am very interested in this matter. As long as I am here, no one can make a big splash. Master, you don't have to worry about me, Qin. Just send someone to follow you, Master."
Just mind your own business."
Seeing that Qin Wenyuan was unwilling to say more, Dezhi could only nod helplessly no matter how worried he was.
After all, with his status, he is really not good enough in front of Qin Wenyuan.
He is not qualified to ask Qin Wenyuan to do anything.
He looked at his apprentice and said: "Jie Cheng, please stay with Lord Qin from now on. Remember, whatever Lord Qin gives you, you must do it seriously. Do you understand?"
Jiacheng nodded quickly: "Disciple, I obey."
Dezhi bowed to Qin Wenyuan again before slowly leaving.
Qin Wenyuan looked at Jie Cheng and saw that Jie Cheng was twenty-four or five years old. He was a little nervous at this time and seemed to be afraid of himself.
Qin Wenyuan laughed and said: "Master Jiecheng is nervous, I don't know how to eat people."
Jiecheng said hurriedly: "Master Qin just asks me to be Jiecheng. I can't bear the title of master, Master Qin, as a young monk."
Qin Wenyuan smiled calmly.
He smiled and said: "Jie Cheng, okay, let's stop talking nonsense. Can you tell us about the situation in your temple?"
Jiecheng nodded quickly: "Back to Lord Qin, we have one hundred and forty-one monks in Huasheng Temple, and two of them, the Zhi generation, are the abbot and Master Zhiyuan, the head of Bodhidharma Academy."
"Then next are the Jie generation, there are twenty people in the Jie generation, and then there are the eighty Xiao generation, and the people after that are the youngest De generation."
One hundred and forty-one people, not many people.
Living in such a large and splendid temple, the area per person is, well, it is larger than the palace.
Moreover, one hundred and forty people could raise five thousand silver taels in less than three days. It must be said that they are really rich!
"Jie Cheng, your Huasheng Temple should not be short of money, right?" Qin Wenyuan asked: "I see that there is an endless stream of pilgrims, and the number of people is constant. It seems to be very lively."
Jie Cheng scratched his head and said with some embarrassment: "Well... Under normal circumstances, our temple does not have to worry about money. Many wandering monks also like to rest here because our hospitality is the best."
"generally?"
Qin Wenyuan's eyes flickered and he said, "That means there will be special circumstances?"
Jiecheng nodded and said, "Recently, we have been short of money."
"Oh? Why is this?" Qin Wenyuan asked curiously.
Jie Cheng said: "Master Qin doesn't know something. In three months, it will be time for the debate on Buddhism and Taoism. This debate on Buddhism and Taoism will be held for the first time in our Buddhist sect, and it will be held in our Huasheng Temple.
Therefore, in order to handle this matter well, the presiding officer decided to renovate Huasheng Temple and prepare it in the best condition for the debate between Buddhism and Taoism."
"Therefore, we are a little short of money."
Debate on Buddhism and Taoism?
When Qin Wenyuan heard these four words, a light suddenly flashed deep in his eyes.
From the vendor's search, I figured out that Beichen might be a Taoist priest.
And now there is a way...
That means Beichen may have some kind of connection with Taoist priests or Taoist sects!
Before, Qin Wenyuan didn't understand why the mysterious man wanted him to come to Buddhism to investigate, and felt that it had nothing to do with Beichen.
But now...
A flash of lightning suddenly flashed in Qin Wenyuan's mind.
The original confusion and confusion suddenly became clear at this moment.
The corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
This mysterious veil that might be "Beichen", he finally found the opportunity and lifted a corner!
Qin Wenyuan was a little happy because he finally discovered the important reason why Beichen might have asked him to participate in the case.
But on the surface, he didn't show anything.
He looked at Jie Cheng, who was still a little nervous, and said, "What's going on with this debate on Buddhism and Taoism?"
Jie Cheng did not dare to hide it. He said: "The debate between Buddhism and Taoism is held every two years. In fact, Buddhism sends a master and Taoism sends a Taoist priest to choose a debate topic and debate with each other."
"The winner will show that his or her Buddhism or Taoism is deeper. If Buddhism wins, within the next two years, Taoism must recognize the depth of Buddhism."
"Similarly, if Taoism wins, Buddhism will also recognize the profoundness of Taoism."
"In short, the debate between Buddhism and Taoism is very important to both our Buddhism and Taoism. Moreover, the Taoism has won the previous few times, so I, the Buddhism sect, have been preparing for it."
Qin Wenyuan nodded.
It is said that it is a debate between Buddhism and Taoism, but it is actually a dispute between Buddhism and Taoism.
This is a battle for orthodoxy!
Both require Xinke.
Naturally there will be conflicts.
And as they are experts in the eyes of ordinary people, of course they cannot fight to the death to rob believers.
Therefore, I use this relatively peaceful way to explain the profoundness of my thoughts in a way of discussing Tao.
Whoever wins will be able to overshadow the other party with publicity.
In this case, believers will naturally choose to believe in the winning side more often.
After all, whoever wins will show that who is more sophisticated and more awesome!
Therefore, for Daomen, to maintain the current results, victory must be achieved.
For Buddhism, if you want to expand your territory and have more believers in the lobby, you must win.
Therefore, this debate on Buddhism and Taoism is far more bloody than what Jie Cheng said.
This is a war between the two realms of Buddhism and Taoism, without smoke.
No wonder Dezhi cares so much about it just being a venue.
This Huasheng Temple is already splendid enough, but if it is not enough, it still needs to be repaired.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! This is to show your strength in front of the Taoist sect!
"Then what should you do if you don't have enough money?" Qin Wenyuan asked.
Jie Cheng smiled and said: "We have already told the believers that we hope they will help us. With the support of the believers, it won't be a big problem. Moreover, the abbot has already said that money for repairing the temple is not a problem.
Let us study the Dharma and not worry about these things."
Qin Wenyuan nodded, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart... He is really awesome, and he is really rich!
The income from his long-term tea shop with one-third of an acre of land is much better.
In his opinion, if you want to make the building more magnificent, you can't do it with just two thousand silver taels.
But just like that, Dezhidu waved his hand and said, don't worry, it's a completely trivial matter, it will be done for you in minutes.
Even Qin Wenyuan admired this!
To repair the temple, we need about two thousand silver taels.
Then redeem the relic and get another five thousand silver taels!
This is all running towards the two big gates of seven thousand silver.
And then they did it in less than three days...
Qin Wenyuan didn't know what to say.
He can only say that opening a temple is really profitable!
Those people are really willing to spend money!
This is real money, and it cannot be compared with a few free evaluation tickets and monthly passes.
Seeing that Qin Wenyuan was silent, Jie Cheng asked cautiously: "Master Qin, where are we going to investigate?"
Qin Wenyuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, let's take a stroll first."
Hearing this, Jie Cheng wanted to remind Qin Wenyuan that time was running out, only less than four hours.
How can I just stroll around?
But he didn't dare to say it, so he could only follow Qin Wenyuan anxiously.
As Qin Wenyuan walked, a three-dimensional picture of Huasheng Temple appeared in his mind.
As he walked around the entire temple, the three-dimensional picture of Huasheng Temple in his mind was completely completed.
He found a random place to sit down and said, "Jie Cheng, can you get me some tea?"
Jiacheng nodded quickly, asked Qin Wenyuan to wait, and left quickly.
After Jie Cheng left, Qin Wenyuan slowly closed his eyes and deduced in his mind the route the thief took after stealing the relic.
Even if there was a chance later to take away the relics from the rafters, because the relics were lost, the main hall has always been under people's attention.
Moreover, the relic is not small, so the thief wants to take the relic without anyone noticing, and hide it in a place where he will not find it even if he searches it thoroughly... This is not an easy task.
.
Qin Wenyuan seemed to be wandering around just now, but in fact he was looking for the most suitable place to hide the relics.
After his search, he found three places where the relics were hidden and the least likely to be discovered.
Then take those three locations as the end point and start the reverse derivation.
Deduced the route the thief took behind the relics from the main hall to the three locations.
Along these three routes, you will encounter many people on the road.
Moreover, the thief must have a reasonable reason to go to those three places, otherwise he will easily be suspected if he goes there rashly.
Therefore, no one will be suspected when entering or exiting the lost relic hall!
It makes perfect sense to go to those three locations!
Combined with the special characteristics of those places...
Qin Wenyuan's brain was running wildly, and some people had already begun to be excluded by him.
There are only a few people left, and these people are the ones most likely to follow their identities!
If other people knew that Qin Wenyuan settled the case in this way, they would definitely be dumbfounded.
After all, this kind of computing power, as well as the ability to derive and infer, is no longer beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
Qin Wenyuan didn't even have contact with anyone, or even carefully search for evidence, and he had already shortened the scope of the suspect's identity.
Even in later generations, few people can achieve this ability.
"Teacher, I'm back."
At this time, Di Renjie suddenly came to Qin Wenyuan.
Qin Wenyuan opened his eyes and asked directly: "Renjie, how are you?"
Di Renjie said: "I have already asked, Jiezhi's reputation in the temple is not very good, he is a bit selfish, but because Jiezhi and Abbot Dezhi seem to be related, there is no reason to stay in the temple.
What do people dare to say?"
"But Jie Cheng said that this time Jie Zhi offended Lord Shaoqing and made the reputation of Huasheng Temple worse, which has touched the bottom line of the temple. If he makes any mistakes, even Abbot Dezhi will not be able to protect him.
"
"Discipline?" Qin Wenyuan was a little surprised.
He looked at Di Renjie and said, "Did you even fool Jiecheng?"
Di Renjie scratched his head and chuckled: "I bumped into him accidentally just now. He seemed to be making tea for his teacher, so the student made some excuses."
"However, this Jie Cheng was really timid and wary. The student still took his favorite refreshments and chatted with him for a while about the taste and types of refreshments before letting him relax."
Qin Wenyuan smiled and nodded: "Yes, it's good to contact people who are on guard, to cater to them, and to let them slowly open their hearts."
Being praised by Qin Wenyuan, Di Renjie suddenly became happy.
Then Qin Wenyuan narrowed his eyes slightly: "Are Jie Zhi and De Zhi still related?"
He shook his head and said with emotion: "It seems that even in this temple, there is no need for human kindness!"
Di Renjie nodded: "Who says it's not the case? Master Dezhi looks so kind and kind-hearted, and he looks like an enlightened monk at first glance... But Jie Zhi has really lost the face of Master Dezhi!"
Qin Wenyuan looked at Di Renjie sighing there and couldn't help but shake his head and smile.
He said: "Okay, you go and help Xu Gou. Xu Gou is asking monks one after another for alibi. You have a sharp eye. Go and help him to prevent anyone from deceiving Xu Gou."
Di Renjie nodded. He was also afraid that Xu Gou would be deceived. After all, according to his understanding, Xu Gou served as a guard in the Twelve Shadow Thorns, and he was considered to be the last among the Twelve Shadow Thorns in terms of intelligence.
"Then teacher and student are leaving now."
Di Renjie bowed his hands respectfully, stood up, and left quickly.
Not long after, Jiezheng came with brewed tea.
After Qin Wenyuan drank for a while, he said: "Master Qin, it's lunch time. Let's go to the dining room to eat some vegetarian food."
…………
Qin Wenyuan touched his stomach and found that he was indeed hungry.
I immediately missed the delicious meals cooked by my wife Changle.
But now when you go out, you obviously cannot do this, as it will be considered unreasonable.
Moreover, he had never eaten in a temple in his entire life. Qin Wenyuan was also a little curious, so he smiled and nodded: "That's fine."
The two went to the dining room and saw that there were really many people here.
Pilgrims and monks were all eating vegetarian meals in an orderly manner.
Jiecheng said: "We have prepared a vegetarian meal for Lord Qin. Sir, please come here."
Do you still have a small stove?
Qin Wenyuan followed Jiacheng to a separate room, and sure enough, there was really a small stove.
I even get special treatment!
I saw that the table was already filled with food.
They are all vegetarian dishes, but they look good and smell good.
Qin Wenyuan sat down, picked up the tea and took a bite first. It was stuffed with mung beans. It tasted really good.
Qin Wenyuan's eyes lit up. He raised his head and saw Jiacheng standing aside, and said, "Sit down and eat together."
Jie Cheng shook his head and said it was inappropriate.
But Qin Wenyuan still forced him to sit down. He directly added a few pieces of tea to Jiecheng and said, "Come on, try it. The taste is really amazing."
