Chapter 355: Slap Buddhism in the face

Luoyang.

Di Renjie walked into Dali Temple at a leisurely pace with a small belly.

Everywhere he passed, everyone in Dali Temple greeted him warmly: "Mr. Di Si!"

Many officials in the inner guard have two positions. While serving in the inner guard, they also have positions in the three provinces, six ministries and nine temples, but they often have different priorities.

Di Renjie is a rare person who is competent in both positions and plays an outstanding role. He is also gentle with others, has an amiable smile, and his colleagues are willing to get along with him.

When he came to his work station, the official had already compiled the records of all the missing children in Luoyang and even Henan Prefecture in recent years into several tall piles according to his arrangement.

Di Renjie checked and selected them one by one, and asked the officials to compare the cities and streets of Luoyang with the map of Luoyang and mark the cities and streets where the children were lost.

In the past few days, the internal guards have searched the city and caught a lot of scattered thieves, but the core group under Shang Gong's command has not been caught.

The old woman also saw that the imperial court attached great importance to Jiangnan. Whenever she couldn't stand Qiu Shenji's torture, she explained the situation of the Jiangnan rebellion. The internal guards kept reporting, and the two sides kept fighting.

Di Renjie couldn't help with matters far away in the south of the Yangtze River, but he could follow the past files and follow the clues to find out about the Yaren in Luoyang.

This boring work has been going on for several days, and the officials in Dali Temple are a little bored. If Di Sicheng hadn't spoken so nicely, he would have invited them to eat noodles after get off work, and promised to work hard, and they had been busy all morning. , finally done.

When Guo Yuanzhen came to look for Di Renjie, he saw a simple map with more than a hundred cities and towns in Luoyang marked out and covered with small nails.

When he inquired and realized that each nail represented at least one child who had been abducted, his face could not help but sink: "These thieves should all be cut to pieces!"

Di Renjie's eyes were equally serious, but also a little excited. He stroked his beard and said, "The traces of the thief have been revealed. Yuan Zhen might as well take a look..."

Guo Yuanzhen came closer to take a closer look, and soon became thoughtful:

"After such a summary, it is indeed clear at a glance. There are relatively few abducted children in the north of the city. This is because there are many powerful people in the neighborhood. Wuhou and the residents of the neighborhood patrol more frequently and are more vigilant. Even so, because children from rich families are better

Even if you sell it, Yapo will still take risks."

"And there are more kidnapping cases in the south of the city. Huairenfang and Guirenfang have the most lost children, because these two cities are close to Jianchunmen, and you can leave the city immediately after abducting the child. In the same way, Renhefang and

The same is true for Guidefang, which is close to Changxia Gate..."

"Huh?"

When Guo Yuanzhen said this, he suddenly let out a sigh: "The locations of these markets are also very good. Sishun Fang, Guande Fang, and Xiuwen Fang are all well-connected places with a lot of people. Why are there so few children missing?

Could it be that they deliberately avoided..."

Di Renjie said approvingly: "Yuan Zhen is indeed smart. This group of Ya people obey the orders of Shang Gong. Unlike ordinary human traffickers, they do not wander around, but always stay in the Eastern Capital."

"If I were them and wanted to have a safe place in Luoyang for a long time, I would have to carefully choose the scope of my crimes. In particular, kidnapping children must often be on the streets, which increases the possibility of being seen by acquaintances.

Avoid the markets where you are hiding."

Guo Yuanzhen nodded: "These cities have convenient roads and numerous waterways. It is really suitable for the thieves' dens to be located in them. They even have three dens, and they will move their dens every once in a while."

At this point, he frowned: "There are tens of thousands of people in each city. If they are searched together, it is easy for thieves to escape in the chaos. If they are searched in sequence, it is easy to alert the snake. These thieves are just like the old poisonous woman.

Extremely cautious!"

Di Renjie shook his head: "We cannot disperse our forces. We must concentrate our efforts to search one place. As of now, we have no further clues. We can only make a bold guess that this group of thieves is now hiding in Xiuwenfang!"

Guo Yuanzhen suddenly realized: "Xiuwenfang? That's where the young lady from the Yang family suffered misfortune. The Wu family's horse was hit by the shadowless needle and ran away... So, we thought wrong before. Didn't the child want to

He wanted to run away, but to reveal the location of the culprit. The reason why Yapo killed him was because he was afraid of having his hideout exposed?"

Di Renjie sighed: "It's just speculation at the moment. If that's true, it would be a pity that the young lady is smart and brave..."

He looked worried: "Besides, there are probably many abducted children in the den of thieves. We need to prevent those ruthless people from jumping over the wall."

Guo Yuanzhen gritted his teeth and said: "Now that things have happened, I can only do my best. When these thieves are caught, I will follow Brother Qiu's example and watch the execution, and see with my own eyes how they died miserably!"

With the target in mind, the two immediately went to the internal defense to mobilize capable personnel, and at the same time notified the Imperial Army and the Luoyang County Government, and the three parties jointly conducted the search.

However, when he rode outside Xiuwenfang, Guo Yuanzhen saw from a distance that a hundred elite cavalrymen, led by Cheng Wuzhong, were escorting a long prison cart and swaggering through the city, attracting onlookers from both sides.

In recent years, for some reason, the prison van has been particularly busy, and high-ranking officials are often detained. The common people have gradually become a little numb after seeing it too much, but this time it is different. It is a bald monk who is being escorted.

This is incredible. Before we even entered the city gate, some people who worshiped Buddhism gave up and followed us on both sides. They even came forward to argue and even cried for father and mother.

The screams were so miserable that even if my mother-in-law were really dead, they wouldn't be so sincere.

Guo Yuanzhen was shocked: "Isn't that Leader Cheng? Arresting so many monks, regardless of whether they are justified or not, will get into trouble. Let's go forward and ask?"

Di Renjie observed and saw that Baiqi was high-spirited and not afraid at all. Then he thought that these people were leaving the city with Li Yan. He stroked his beard and smiled and said: "It is these monks who are doing evil things that we should worry about."

Sure enough, Baiqi escorted the long prison car to a cross street with a large number of people and could no longer walk.

It was nothing else. People who worshiped Buddhism after receiving the news gathered around, three floors inside and three floors outside, shouting: "Let go of the master! Let go of the master!" "How can you blaspheme our Buddha? You will be punished, you will be punished."

of!"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Although these Buddhist believers did not dare to take action, hostile eyes gathered one after another. Cheng Wuzhong smiled coldly and waved his hand: "Display the government's wanted list beside you.

Come on, read it to them!"

Baiqi stepped forward, unfolded the wanted notice, placed it next to the prison car, and read loudly: "Lu Da, nicknamed Ghost Face, is a bee thief in Xiling. He has repeatedly blocked roads and robbed, causing great harm and killing hundreds of people. The arrester will be punished."

Kill and receive the reward based on the head!"

The Buddhist believer heard the words and looked around, and saw that the face painted on the wanted notice was quite different, but the thick red scars on the left side of the face were exactly the same as that of the monk, and the fierce look in his eyes was even more noticeable.

Everyone was stunned.

Impossible, I can’t be so cruel...

Baiqi continued to read, and even compared many monks who had been reduced to corpses, and listed their crimes one by one:

"Miao Qi, nicknamed Evil Life, is a bandit in the river. He has repeatedly plundered villages and killed hundreds of people. Those who arrest him can be killed, and he will be rewarded based on his head!"

"Mao Huo, a gangster in Luozhou who kills dozens of people. Those who arrest him can be killed and he will be rewarded based on his head!"

"Wild slave, name unknown, Yunzhou bandit, killing dozens of people, those who arrest him can be killed, and he will receive the reward based on his head!"



As the wanted men and monks responded one by one, the surrounding area began to be in an uproar.

There were no large-scale uprisings during Emperor Gaozong's reign, but there were many small-scale bandits.

On the one hand, with the collapse of the government military system, more and more soldiers deserted. The most likely way for those who served as soldiers was to fall into the countryside and become bandits. On the other hand, it was also governed by local officials, which was far inferior to the Qingming Dynasty during the Zhenguan and Yonghui periods.

So in the end, even Li Zhi's charioteers and bandits who traveled between the two cities dared to touch him, leaving a mark in the history books, which proved that the situation was really serious.

The advantages of the Shaolin Temple are indeed outstanding. The bandits who want to become a monk to avoid disaster, but do not want to spend all day in front of the ancient Buddha and cannot even move their bodies, hear the name for a long time and realize the two-way journey. As a result, they are

If we take it down, the Shaolin Temple is basically finished.

The wanted notices of Songyang County Government are obviously not complete, and some of them cannot be found for a long time. They will be taken to the Criminal Department to dig out more evidence.

Cheng Wuzhong originally didn't want to make a big announcement. After all, Buddhism has influence among the lower class people and the upper class nobles. But now that these Buddhist believers have clearly seen the prison car being escorted and dared to come up to cause trouble, don't blame him for being rude and beating the Buddhists hard.

Face.

The wanted notice was like a mirror looking into a demon. It flashed brightly and finally made the onlookers shout:

"A wanted thief with hundreds of lives in his hands, in a quiet place in Buddhism? This is simply ridiculous!"

"Behead! Behead them all!!"

"My Buddha is compassionate! My Buddha is compassionate! This must be fake... fake..."

"Which temple do these bandits belong to? It's the temple's problem, not the Buddha's!"

The people were talking a lot and had different expressions. Under the gaze of Baiqi, the Buddhist believers looked away and dispersed dejectedly.

Some were downcast and doubtful about leaving forever.

Some murmured in their mouths, looking for various excuses.

The latter thought that there were gangsters among the monks, which was so scary that he had to go to the temple to worship Buddha to calm his shock.

Cheng Wuzhong knew that it was impossible to change too much, but as long as a few people could wake up, he felt that he had done a good thing. Looking at the Buddhist believers who dispersed in despair, he felt even more confident. He waved his hand: "Let's escort them."

The thief monk enters the punishment department!"

"yes!!"

Hundreds of cavalrymen let out loud shouts and marched toward the imperial city in a majestic manner.

Guo Yuanzhen was not entirely optimistic. After discovering the group of prison cars, there was a group of Shaolin monks. They walked forward dejectedly and rolled their eyes: "Gong Di, do you think there are people who worship Buddhism among the Ya people?

"

Di Renjie was startled: "Do you want these monks to cooperate with us?"

Guo Yuanzhen said: "Shaolin Bodhidharma is well-known among martial arts practitioners. These monks are definitely capable of protecting themselves. If we can learn Wenfang Huazhai, can it help us determine the target, cooperate internally and externally, and rescue those who have been raped?"

Imprisoned children?”

Di Renjie nodded slightly: "Although it is dangerous, it does have a better chance of keeping the children safe. Yuan Zhen, this method is very good!"

Guo Yuanzhen was encouraged, rode his horse forward, stretched out his hand and said: "You have been recruited by the inner guard. Go, I will take you to do a great good deed and gain real merit!"
