Things like birthdays and horoscopes are innate, two is a coincidence, ten may also be a coincidence, but more than half of them are coincidences, which is obviously wrong.
Zhou Zongnan asked doubtfully: "Is there anything wrong with the birth date and eight characters being Yin? In other words, what is their role?"
Gu Cheng thought for a while and said: "To be honest, I don't know much about this. There are too many left-handed secrets in the world. There are yin and yang in things like birth dates. There is nothing wrong with being yin. Only People like Mr. Shen who are all Yin are relatively rare.
But there may be some evil cultivators who may use it to practice some evil methods. These are all possible, especially the evil cultivators of the Taoist lineage.
Head Zhou, there is only one clue that can be found at the moment. Although even this clue is not certain, we can only investigate closely in this direction.
I also asked Capt. Zhou to lead his men to conduct a detailed investigation of who these people met during this period, what happened to them, etc., to see if they could find any similarities.
By the way, especially Taoist priests."
Zhou Zongnan nodded, and regardless of the fact that it was dark night, he immediately led his people to investigate with great force.
It has to be said that Zhou Zongnan, the chief catcher, was very efficient. At noon the next day, he came back with the results, but his face looked a little weird.
"Captain Zhou, have you found any information?"
Zhou Zongnan nodded, shook his head and said, "It's okay to say that we have found it, but I'm not sure."
"Why?"
"Because the only thing these people, including the young master, had in common before he disappeared was that they had been to Changchun Temple."
Gu Cheng frowned slightly when he heard Zhou Zongnan say that this matter actually involved Changchun Temple.
Any matter involving the sect is not a trivial matter in Donglin County. The only difference is that if it is really related to Changchun Temple, then Cui Zijie will be the one who has a headache.
"Since the doubts are so obvious, why are you still not sure?"
Zhou Zongnan smiled bitterly and said: "Because there are too many people who have been to Changchun Temple.
In the eyes of Master Gu and you practitioners, Changchun Temple is a sect of practitioners.
But in the eyes of ordinary people like me in Heyang Prefecture, Changchun Temple is just a very efficacious Taoist temple around Heyang Prefecture.
Therefore, whenever there is a festival or there is a happy event in someone’s family, they will go to Changchun to view the incense sticks.
Although the young master has been to Changchun Temple, the prefect and other dignitaries from Heyang Prefecture have also been there, and there are countless ordinary people who have been to Changchun Temple."
Gu Cheng knocked on the table, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
Among the sects in Heyang Prefecture, Changchun Temple actually has the best reputation.
Needless to say, Daoxuanzong's virtues, Qingshan Swordsman is not a good guy either. Relying on their own strength, they have done many things like organizing caravans to bully and dominate the market.
There is only one Changchun Temple who comes from an orthodox Taoist sect and does not participate in any disputes between rivers and lakes. Anyway, it is famous. The incense money alone is enough for their dozen or so Taoist priests to enjoy their lives.
Therefore, Changchun Temple not only does not bully ordinary people, but also helps the poor people in the villages and towns around the Taoist temple every year. Whenever there are natural or man-made disasters, it donates incense and takes the initiative to open an altar to pray for the souls of the dead.
Last time when he was in the Changle Gang, Qiu Liandong took the initiative to help the old gang leader Ji Haiya conduct a ceremony for his salvation. He was also a very kind person.
But now that the clues have been found here, Gu Cheng is also planning to take people to Changchun to take a look.
Since they were only there to investigate and not to investigate, Gu Cheng only took Xiao Yi and Zhou Zongnan with him.
Xiao Yi is from a Taoist sect, so he can tell if there is anything wrong with Changchun Temple.
Zhou Zongnan is a famous catcher in Heyang Prefecture and has rich experience, so he might be able to see some clues.
Changchun Temple is located more than ten miles away from Heyang Prefecture, and is very close to Heyang Prefecture, so there is an endless stream of people from Heyang Prefecture who come to offer incense.
Gu Cheng followed the mountain road all the way to Changchun Guanshan Gate and did not see any Taoist abbots maintaining order. It was all up to the pilgrims' consciousness.
He seemed to remember that last time Qiu Liandong seemed to have said that they at Changchun Temple were going to retreat to meditate on some Taoist scriptures, so they didn't even want the Changle Gang's share of the elixir.
It wasn't until he arrived in the central hall that Gu Cheng saw an acquaintance like Qiu Liandong.
"We meet again, Mr. Qiu."
Gu Cheng walked over and said hello.
Qiu Liandong's cold face suddenly froze for a moment after seeing Gu Cheng. Then he seemed to realize it and came over and asked, "Why did Mr. Gu suddenly come to visit me in Changchun?"
"I have something I want to ask Master Qiu of Changchun Temple. Is it convenient?"
Qiu Liandong thought for a moment and said, "Please go to the guest room and wait for a while. I'll go talk to the master."
After being taken all the way to the guest room, Gu Cheng looked at Xiao Yi and Zhou Zongnan. They both shook their heads at the same time, saying that they found nothing suspicious.
Only Zhou Zongnan suddenly said: "I found that this Taoist priest Qiulian seemed to have something on his mind."
Gu Cheng said: "It doesn't mean anything if you have something on your mind. From the first time I met this Master Qiu, I felt that he had something on his mind."
After a while, the door was pushed open, and a kind-hearted old Taoist priest walked in. He was Qiu Yixin, the master of Changchun Temple, 'Changchun Master'.
My attitude towards this old Taoist priest was very polite.
"I've met Master Qiu."
Gu Cheng and others all stood up and bowed.
Qiu Yixin smiled and said, "I wonder why Mr. Gu came to my Changchun Monastery?"
Gu Cheng said: "I won't give in. I wonder if Master Qiu knows about the disappearance of the prefect's son?"
Qiu Yixin nodded and said: "Of course I know. Before Mr. Shen disappeared, he once came to Changchun to offer incense and bless his grandmother for her safety. He was a good boy. It's a pity that he would have encountered such a thing.
It seems that this matter has alarmed Jingyesi, I wonder if there will be any results from Mr. Gu?"
Hearing what Qiu Yixin said, Gu Cheng couldn't ask any more questions.
People have told me so openly and openly, so what else do I have to ask?
But now that they have come, Gu Cheng can only say: "There are no clues yet, but after our investigation, we found that the number of missing people in Heyang Mansion has increased suddenly in the past three months, and more than half of the missing people have their birth dates and horoscopes belonging to the same family.
Damn it, these people all have one thing in common, that is, they all go to Changchun Temple to pay incense."
Qiu Yixin was stunned, then smiled bitterly and said: "Mr. Gu suspects that the disappearance of these people is related to my Changchun Temple?
This is not Pindao’s own defense, but there are so many people coming to my Changchun Temple that even the disciples of my Changchun Temple cannot accommodate them.
But these are pilgrims, and I can’t chase them away, so even if we, practitioners, want to focus on spiritual practice, we still have to recruit some lay disciples to tell their fortunes and interpretations for them.
However, this matter is indeed a coincidence. It is understandable for Mr. Gu to doubt my Changchun Temple. Anyway, my Changchun Temple is so big. Mr. Gu can definitely search the Taoist temple now. It doesn't matter."
Qiu Yixin's attitude was excellent, and it was impossible for Gu Cheng to search Changchun Temple, which had great reputation and strength in Heyang Mansion without evidence.
So Gu Cheng just smiled and said: "Master Qiu is overthinking, I'm just talking casually, how could Changchun Temple be related to this matter?
I'm sorry for bothering you, please don't take offense."
Qiu Yixin smiled and said: "Nothing, I, Changchun Temple, have always cooperated with Jingyesi. The one who protects the safety of this place is not us Taoist priests who can only recite sutras, but all the strong men of Jingyesi."
Regarding the disappearance of the prefect, if it is really related to the yin zodiac sign of the birth date, Mr. Gu can check the practitioners of the ghost refining line and the corpse exorcist lineage. Only they need to sacrifice human life and blood and other evil things."
"Thank you, Master, for your guidance. I'll take my leave now."
After exchanging a few words, Gu Cheng led the people straight down the mountain.
Looking back at the bustling Changchun Temple, Gu Cheng's brows furrowed deeply.
They didn't find any doubts about Changchun Temple, and they couldn't even find any fault with Qiu Yixin's attitude. Let alone find fault. If all the practicing sects in the world were as reasonable as Changchun Temple, then half of Jingyesi would
You can retire directly.
But Gu Cheng still felt that something was wrong, because the other party's attitude was so good and cooperative that it made Gu Cheng feel unreal.
It's not that Gu Cheng has delusions of being persecuted, he always feels that there are unscrupulous people who want to harm me.
But according to common sense, when a sect of Changchun Temple's level hears that someone is doubting them, their first reaction should be anger at being suspected, instead of asking you to search openly, just like
Just like waiting to defend his innocence.
Maybe he thinks too much and always thinks of people in such a dark way. What if Master Qiu has such a kind personality?
If Gu Cheng still insists on checking someone with such a good attitude, even if he reports to Cui Zijie, Cui Zijie will feel that he is sick.
As soon as she returned to Heyang Mansion, Liu Yingying said: "Why are you back? The leader of the Changle Gang has been waiting for you for a long time to come find you."
Ji Linfeng? Why did he come to find me?
Gu Cheng was slightly confused.
Ever since the battle with Daoxuanzong, Ji Linfeng seemed to be a little afraid of him, so why did he rush to find him?
