The three of them had dinner in the Danding Sect. Xiang Xiaotian was eager to urge Chen Mengsheng to use magic to investigate the case. Shangguan Yanran lost her appetite due to the burnt corpses during the day, so she drank a few sips of clear soup and put away the meal. Listening to Xiang
Even when Xiaotian urged Chen Mengsheng to do something, his heart was pounding, and he brought Chen Mengsheng into the inner room where Yun Qingzi usually practiced.
Chen Mengsheng took out the soul-capturing bottle and summoned the souls in the bottle. Three souls and seven souls were all gone. The ghost soul showed its original appearance, that is, it was completely black. The ghost looked around and suddenly saw Shangguan Yanran and said with great joy: "
Miss Yanran, why are you here?"
Of course Shangguan Yanran couldn't see or hear what the soul said, and stared blankly at Chen Mengsheng who was casting a spell.
I heard Chen Mengsheng ask into the empty inner room: "Who are you? Why did you die?"
The soul was confused for a while and said: "Where is this place? Am I dead?" After seeing Chen Mengsheng nodding, the soul knew that he was really dead.
After being silent for a long time, he said: "The poor monk's name is Guangjue, and he is a knowledgeable monk in Guandi Temple."
"Guangjue, do you still remember how you died?"
Guangjue thought for a while and said, "I remember that it was my turn to collect the sesame oil in the temple that day. When I came out of the meditation room, I suddenly heard someone arguing about something in Brother Guangyuan's room. I think it was almost midnight, and Brother Supervisor of the Temple was there again.
Are you having a quarrel with your sweetheart? It’s better to have more trouble than less, so I went to the front hall."
Chen Mengsheng was shocked and asked: "Is there anyone in Guangyuan Temple who has a lover?"
Guang Jue said: "Brother Guangyuan turns out to be from Tiaoqing in Pingyang Prefecture. His surname is Lu and his name is Rongyao. Before he became a monk, there was already a female benefactor, but I don't know why he became a monk. After he became a monk, the female benefactor often came to Guandi Temple to look for him.
Senior Brother Guangyuan sometimes stays overnight in the temple."
"Then you, Abbot Huiyuan, don't care about him?"
"Abbot Huiyuan has been meditating on Zen principles in the Zen room all year round, and he didn't know anything about Brother Guangyuan. We three monks who knew the guest knew it but didn't dare to say anything. Brother Guangming once criticized Brother Guangyuan, and he beat him half to death.
…”
Chen Mengsheng repeated what Monk Guangjue said to Xiang Xiaotian and Shangguan Yanran. The expressions of the two people were completely different. Xiang Xiaotian was indignant and Shangguan Yanran was in disbelief.
"What happened next?" Chen Mengsheng asked.
"Later, after adding the sesame oil, I returned to the warehouse and put the oil pot away. I found that the two jars of kerosene in the warehouse were missing. They were used for burning the stove in the kitchen. I opened the warehouse that day. If a thief broke something short, it would be
It's my fault. I was about to look for it when I saw a figure standing by the incense candlestick outside the temple, so I ran over. But when I passed by, no one was there. When I turned around, a large gourd of kerosene poured on me.
The body was on fire..., it was on fire..., and people were burned to death."
"Did you see the person who set the fire?"
"I saw that Senior Brother Guangyuan set me on fire. I screamed with pain all over my body. Guangyuan picked up a jar of kerosene and hit my head. I don't know what happened next."
When Chen Mengsheng saw Guangjue saying that his whole body was on fire, he scratched his whole body and it was exactly the same as Xue's symptoms that day. After asking Guangjue, monk Chen Mengsheng recited the Rebirth Mantra, which summoned Hei Wuchang to take Guangjue's soul into the underworld...
Shangguan Yanran felt suddenly very cold. She couldn't help but cross her hands and rub them on her arms. She rubbed them a few times and asked, "Brother, where does the cold wind come from in this inner room with no doors or windows?"
"Just now, Hei Wufei, the seducing ghost from the underworld, took away Monk Guangjue's soul. Tomorrow I have to trouble my junior sister to go to Tiaoqing in Pingyang Mansion to track down Guangyuan Temple."
Shangguan Yanran smiled and said: "Senior brother, you are serious. It only takes more than two hours for Tiaoqing to hire a car from Pingyang Mansion."
Chen Mengsheng bowed to Xiang Xiaotian and saluted again: "Brother, I didn't expect that the Guandi Temple incident would cause trouble again. Tomorrow I won't be able to go to Luoxia Mountain to ask senior Wu Yazi to avenge my brother."
"Brother, what are you talking about? This evil person in the world is more harmful than the black demon. I have been waiting for revenge for so many years, and there is no rush." The three of them discussed the murder and arson in Guangyuan Temple.
After chatting for half an hour, they each went back to their rooms to rest.
The next day, the three of them got up and hired a donkey cart to go to Tiaoqing. Xiang Xiaotian almost cried when he saw Xiang Xiaotian's bow on the handlebars of the cart. In front of the donkey cart was the shaft where the driver sat, and behind it was a cotton awning seven feet long and wide.
The five-foot guest seat. Xiang Xiaotian carried the big bow on his back and Chen Mengsheng, brother and sister. As soon as they got on the car, the donkey couldn't pull it anymore. In desperation, he had to put the Bawang bow back into the house...
It was almost noon when we arrived at Tiaoqing. We found a restaurant and the three of us started to have a meal. While we were eating, a group of people walked into the restaurant. The bartender saw the person coming and greeted them with a smile on his face and said:
"Second Master Lu, what do you plan to eat today?"
The leader of the visitors, who was called Second Master Lu, shouted: "What are you making noise about? Just serve the good wine and food. Second Master will not shortchange your money." After saying that, he took the group of fair-weather friends and sat down.
On a table in the corner of the store.
Shangguan Yanran poked Chen Mengsheng gently with her hand and whispered: "The one wearing a black coat and sitting sideways is Monk Guangyuan, the supervisor of the Guandi Temple."
This is really hard to find, and it was achieved without wasting any effort. Chen Mengsheng secretly glanced at Xiang Xiaotian, and the three of them quietly watched what would happen...
Chen Mengsheng knew that the Guangyuan monk's lay name was Lu Rongnao, but he didn't know that he was still a second master. After more than a year, Lu Rongnao had thick hair on his head. If Shangguan Yanran hadn't been familiar with the monks from Guandi Temple, it would have been difficult to
You will recognize that this person used to be a monk.
Lu Rongyao and the three or four people were playing guessing games and giving orders, shouting and shouting, which alarmed the four restaurants. But no one dared to say anything, and the diners paid their money and left in a hurry.
Lu Rongyao drank at the table for more than an hour before they dispersed. Lu Rongyao bought ten taels of silver and stumbled out of the wine shop with shy stomach. Chen Mengsheng and the other three followed him through the streets and alleys until they reached the bluestone building.
In front of the door of the tile-roofed house, Lu Rongnao was kicking the door with his foot while smelling of alcohol. After a while, the door was opened by a woman in her thirties with heavy makeup.
"You bastard, you are drinking yellow soup again. Go back to the house and dig up your corpse." The woman said in Pingyang dialect and dragged Lu Rongyao into the house. She was about to close the door, but the door was opened by a strong black man with his hands. The woman
He was caught off guard and bumped into Lu Rongyao, and the two of them were immediately thrown to the ground. The woman sat on the ground and cursed: "Amitabha, we are the only ones who rob other people's houses on weekdays. How could someone come to rob my house today..." Being crushed by the woman
Lu Rongnao, who was underneath him, had mostly sobered up after falling. He pushed the woman on him away and jumped upright, glaring angrily at the three people who entered the door.
"Who are you? Why did you come to my house?"
Chen Mengsheng turned back and closed the door slowly, looked at Lu Rongnao and said, "It's been a long time since I last saw you at the Guangyuan Prison Temple. Are you okay?"
When Lu Rongyao heard that the person calling him was Guangyuan, he knew that the person who came was not good at all. He pulled out a short knife from his waist and looked at the three people intently. Only then did he realize that Shangguan Yanran was behind a tall man who was nine feet tall.
"It turns out it was you, a stinky girl, who ruined my good deeds. I won't be able to keep you here today." Lu Rongyao said fiercely through gritted teeth.
Xiang Xiaotian, who was nine feet tall, laughed loudly and said: "Come on, then I will play with you." After saying that, he also took out a short knife from his waist, and the knife danced in his hand like an airtight knife flower. .The cold light was straight into the eyes, and the shadow of the knife was heavy and dazzling. Lu Rongyao knew that he had encountered a hard fight today, and an expert would know if it was there as soon as he made a move. He raised the knife and gave a loud shout, and faced Shangguan Yanran behind Xiang Xiaotian. Then he stabbed. It was too late, but it was too late. Xiang Xiaotian raised his foot and kicked Lu Rongnao's wrist. The short knife rose into the sky, and before it hit the ground, Xiang Xiaotian caught it in his hand. With both knives in hand, he went straight towards Lu Rongnao... …
Seeing that the situation was not going well, the woman on the ground shouted loudly: "Here comes someone, grab..." Before she could finish her words, Queen Xiang Xiaotian kicked her in the heart with her heel. The woman groaned and fell to the ground again and passed out. past.
Lu Rongyao knelt down on the ground with a plop and said: "You guys, Lu Erping has never had any grudges with you. I don't know why he and Hao Khan formed a feud?" Lu Rongyao said this in his mouth, but in his heart. He was secretly sizing up that he could not defeat the big man. Although the black man blocking the door did not make a move, his momentum was as steady as Mount Tai. He was a more powerful character than the big man. He could only wait for an opportunity to escape, but the unconscious woman on the ground knew that he There are too many things going on. If she is left behind, she will become a disaster...
Just when Lu Rongyao was secretly calculating, he heard the black man yelling like thunder: "A year ago, six people in Guandi Temple lost their lives at your hands. I'll take it seriously."
"This..., this...I don't...know." Lu Rongyao rinsed the white hair and sweat off his head, lowered his head and his eyes rolled around.
Xiang Xiaotian put away his knife and yelled: "Will you forget if you kill someone?"
"Yes, yes, yes. I said, I said. But my person is still lying on the ground. It's freezing out here. Please allow me to help her back to the house."
Shangguan Yanran also said: "Senior brother, you will get sick from lying down for so long in such a cold weather." Seeing that his junior sisters had said this, Chen Mengsheng asked Xiang Xiaotian to ask Lu Rongyao to get up.
Lu Rongyao slowly stood up and walked towards the woman on the ground step by step. Chen Mengsheng and others did not expect that there was a tunnel dug by Lu Rongyao in this house. The entrance of the tunnel was hidden three feet behind the woman on the ground...
Lu Rongyao gradually approached the woman, and suddenly he twisted his right foot and stretched out a sharp knife nearly a foot long from the sole of his boot. He kicked the woman in the chest, and the woman did not even grunt before committing suicide in vain.
Lu Rongyao succeeded with one move, jumped up and opened a hidden grate on the wall, revealing the entrance of the tunnel. Just as he was about to jump down, he felt a sharp pain in his body. When he looked down, he found that half of his body had fallen into the tunnel, and the other half was still in the tunnel. Falling back, I glanced at the black man and saw thunder flashing in his hand...
Shangguan Yanran hurriedly ran to the woman's side, felt her breath and felt her heartbeat. Chen Mengsheng said: "Junior sister, don't be busy any more. This woman's soul has left her body and it is impossible to save it. There is black energy billowing above this woman's soul, so it must not be A kind man, you will know after I ask..."
