Attack Jade (攻玉) - Chapter 109
[Chapter 77: Catching Worms: Closing the Net]
This success gave Teng Yuyi great confidence.
She rushed back to the eaves and once again lowered the beams.
The legs just stood firm, and immediately ran towards the side pillar, after stepping on the pillar, she took advantage of the strength to jump, originally thought that ten to nine stable, the result failed, this time only flew to the half and fell.
Fortunately, the first successful experience was a trick for her, and although she failed several times in a row, the number of successes increased.
Lin Chengyou looked at the figure running around in the moonlight, it was a little funny, Teng Yuyi sometimes really had a child’s heart, wasn’t it that he had learned the introductory mental method of light exercises, and he was happy to be like this.
However, looking at it, the doubt that had long been suppressed by him quietly came to mind.
Teng Yuyi’s personality was strong, and he knew this very well as early as when he was in Cai Feng Lou, and this bit of suffering in learning martial arts would never be able to overwhelm her.
But her strength to learn martial arts, will not be too persistent.
The last time she was so desperate in Cai Feng Lou, it could also be explained that she was afraid of growing hot sores on her face, and now she didn’t have the Spirit Herb Soup in her body that she couldn’t make.
Could it be that she was really worried that the “prophecy” that Xiao Ya had said would come true, as she said when she mentioned the Black Man? It is too much to worry about, let alone how a dream can be taken seriously, even if someone may be unfavorable to her, how can Teng Shao love her daughter like that, how can Teng Yuyi fall into danger.
But looking at her posture, it was as if she was afraid that one day no one around her would be able to protect her.
After looking at it silently for a while, he secretly thought that no matter what she was afraid of, tonight he had come to return the favor, and if she wanted to learn, then he would teach her until she learned.
So extra patience, corrected her usual few mistakes when exerting her strength, but also taught a lot of mental methods, seeing that she used the internal force more and more skillfully, the hour was really not early, this said: “Okay, this is the beginning, then remember to practice diligently, practice for ten days will be more and more free.”
“Good.” Teng Yuyi jumped down happily, because she was too forgetful, the sleeve was almost scraped by the branches of the pear tree, she quickly raised her arm in a hurry, even if she avoided it, but she also threw out the bag of petals that were collected in the cuff cage, and with the inertia of her body sinking, the bag of petals flew straight to Lin Chengyou’s feet.
Without waiting for Lin Chengyou to see what it was, Chun Rong and Bi Luo rushed over to pick up the thing, they were afraid that it was Teng Yuyi’s personal belongings, and this kind of thing would not be good if it fell into the eyes of the foreign man.
However, tonight the moon was as bright as day, and the scarf was water-colored, even if it was only a quick glance, Lin Chengyou also faintly glimpsed the shadow of a little petal.
Oh, what does Teng Yuyi do with so many petals? Remembering what I said last time I saw the sky, collecting so many petals, is it not to make a flower cake.
He glanced at her, cleared his throat, and said, “Well, this person is kind of repaid, I will be very busy in the next few days, I don’t have to send things and letters, and I can’t receive it horizontally and vertically.” As
he spoke, he walked outside the courtyard.
Teng Yuyi was on his head, how did he know that Lin Chengyou was about to leave, knowing that he was busy arresting prisoners, but still subconsciously said: “That, Shizi -”
Lin Chengyou suddenly stopped and said: “By the way, if there is any change in the temple these two days, I will send a letter to the Absolute Saint and renunciation wisdom in advance, if you notice that something is wrong, just ask them.”
Jumping on the wall between words, Teng Yuyi looked up at the direction in which he had disappeared, and did not move for a long time, in addition to pondering what Lin Chengyou meant by “abnormal movement”, more was Yan Envy, he jumped up directly, without the help of the pillar, such a high wall said that vertical up and up.
It can be seen that there is still a big gap between her light skills and a master like Lin Chengyou.
However, she was still very happy, after all, her light work had been standing still in the past few days, but tonight it had suddenly improved by a big step.
When I turned around and saw the stone table under the pear blossom tree, I couldn’t help but feel a little regret in my heart, obviously I had prepared the fragrant mash, but I didn’t have time to ask Lin Chengyou to drink a few glasses of wine.
Fortunately, it was not long before it was Lin Chengyou’s birthday.
She returned to her original position with great interest, jumped on the beam again according to the method taught by Lin Chengyou, went up and down several times, and the more she practiced, the happier she became, and she caught ChunRong and BiLuo next to her, so that they could appreciate her newly learned martial arts.
I don’t know how many times I have practiced, seeing that the hour is really not early, this is why Bi Luo wiped his sweat for himself, walked towards the house with his head held high, and walked with a light posture when he walked, as if he felt that he had the temperament of a martial arts master.
“Duan Fu, you asked Chang Geng to go back to the house tomorrow morning and pass on my words to Cheng Bo, saying that I still need to add something.” She said happily.
***
Lin Chengyou did not leave the Great Hidden Temple directly, but first went to the Zen room to find the abbot of Yuanjue.
The abbot and several of the senior disciples under the seat did not rest because they wanted to discuss the strategy of dealing with the weight.
Yuanjue saw Lin Chengyou coming and said to the disciples at the table, “Go down first.” When
the monks retreated, they beckoned, “You’er, sit.” Lin Chengyou crossed
his hands and sat down opposite the abbot of Yuanjue: “The juniors listened to Master Mingxin and said that the temple had already figured out how to deal with The Patience, but unfortunately the younger generations knew a lot about Buddhism, and there were some things they didn’t understand when they heard Master Mingxin say it before.” “You
just said you had something to say to the old man alone, and that’s what you said?”
Lin Chengyou smiled and bowed his head.
Yuanjue personally poured Lin Chengyou a cup of Lotus Heart Tea and explained without hesitation, “I think you already know that this object was originally a Protector heavenly king of the Shuluo Dao.
“After entering the Buddha’s Gate, this object immersed himself in cultivation, bent on inheriting the mantle of the Reincarnation King, but because he violated the two sins of jealousy, he was stripped of his robes and sutra bowls, and he should have thought about it behind closed doors, and he slaughtered his fellow disciples in anger, and the evil thoughts in his heart were gushing, and he was out of control, and from then on he fell into the path of evil ghosts and wantonly drove away all the ghosts in hades. To bring down this demon, the ordinary Buddha’s Gate Formation method is useless, and your Taoist Minglu Secret Technique can only damage its fur, so to find a way to destroy this demon, you must start from the Brahmanical scriptures.
Lin Chengyou listened intently.
“These two days of Tibetan scriptures were copied and translated, and finally a few fragments of weight tolerance were found in the vast sea of Sanskrit scriptures, and once this thing recovered its mana, it could grab the yin power of the ghosts at will, and fight and make up for it, there was almost no exhaustion, if it was hard to consume, the monks could not afford to consume it. After consulting with several disciples, Lao Gong decided to deploy a few Dharma Protector Gods in the Bright and Righteous Path to surrender this object. ”
Protector of the Heavenly Gods?” Lin Chengyou gradually understood that it was no wonder that Master Mingxin had created four Dravidian sutras, thinking that he was preparing for this.
Yuanjue said, “These four Protector Gods, namely Dora, Viruli, Viliu, And Vishamon, are the four Protector Gods.” According to legend, there is a Gandhara mountain on the side of Mount Meru, and the mountain has four peaks, and the four protector kings each guard the peace of the four directions according to one peak (Note 1). No matter how high the mana resistance is, before falling into the demon path, it is only a Buddhist monk, it has evil thoughts, but its mana comes out of its own Buddha’s door, and the best way to bring down this demon is to invite out the true protector god.
Speaking of this, Yuanjue added, “This is the method of descending demons with the least damage that Lao Gong can think of, but unfortunately, two nights have almost passed, and he has not been able to find the whereabouts of the weight-resistant.” Even if you don’t come tonight, Lao Gu is about to let people look for you, have you ever let people go to the same state? This thing comes and goes like electricity, will it go back to the same state?
Lin Chengyou said suddenly, “The younger generation thinks that this thing is still in the city.” ”
Wasemonger’s eyes glazed over.
Lin Chengyou added: “It’s just that some people are deliberately trying not to let us find it. Yuanjue’s
expression changed subtly: “How can I say this?” Lin Chengyou said, “The
juniors came here tonight, and in addition to discussing with the abbot how to deal with the weight, they also wanted to ask you about the origin of a person.” The monks of Chang’an City are like clouds, but there are not many temples and Taoist temples that can really be called the peak of incense, and the abbot has been the abbot of the Dayin Temple for many years, and he wants to come and deal with the abbots of these temples and Taoist temples, and the younger generations want to ask when that person became the abbot-”
This conversation lasted until midnight.
The words of the abbot confirmed the speculation in Lin Chengyou’s heart, listening to it, Lin Chengyou fell into meditation, even if he had figured out how the person committed the crime, he could not determine whether this person had another master behind the scenes, because this person’s ability alone was enough to arrange this conspiracy, and he could not understand the details of the other party, naturally he could not predict what action the other party would take next, and after discussion that night, only a few expedient measures were temporarily decided.
***
The next day, Zhang Tingrui, the secretary of the Dali Temple, complained about this intricate murder and fetal removal case in front of the imperial court.
With the suicide of the murderer Shu Wenliang, the case has been completely settled.
Wen Qingsan and Haoyue Sanren were bent on revenge on the saints, but they only hated that the four sides were now rich and the people were rich, and with their ability, they tried to disturb the chaogang, which was undoubtedly a grasshopper shaking the tree. The two thieves had been dormant for many years and had not been able to come up with a good strategy, so they had to start the idea of using the great evil to expose the world.
When it came time to seek the ring of Yueshuo Tongjun, everything was going well, how did you know that when killing the third pregnant woman, an eyewitness was broken into the scene of the incident.
This person not only smelled the rare incense “Tianshui Shiluo” on the spot, but also found that the clothes of the real murderer were different from the skins that were captured at the scene, and it was because of this testimony that Dali Temple knew that the real murderer was not only someone else, but also the purpose of taking the fetus was to get the Yueshuo Tongjun.
Now that the whole conspiracy has been exposed, Wen Qingsan knows that he has no choice but to take his wife and daughter to take poison and commit suicide.
Through Zhang Tingrui’s statement, people know that there is also an eyewitness behind the case.
Apparently, dali temple protected this witness very well, because in addition to the officials in charge of investigating the case, even other officials inside Dali temple did not know the true identity of this witness.
According to Zhang Tingrui, the reason why this witness broke into the scene was because when the first massacre in Tongzhou occurred, this person happened to be in the inn, and it happened that this person also heard the crying of the baby at the scene that night, so when he heard the baby crying in the spice shop that day, the witness would have a strong uneasiness and decided to go to the ashram to inspect.
Dali Temple even revealed such details, which shows that the whole case has no doubt at all.
Nowadays, only the murder of the husband and wife in Tongzhou still has some doubts left, but unfortunately, over time, many of the evidence at the scene have been annihilated, fortunately, the officials of the Dali Temple found the Moon Shuo Mirror on Wen Qingsan, this Moon Shuo Mirror was created by the Qiankun Scattered People condensation soul control dacheng in that year, and the mirror body swallowed countless remnants of souls, which has always been extremely evil.
As early as fifteen years ago, the Qing Xuanzi Daoist had a lot of experience in how to crack the Soul Control Technique, and since this mirror reappeared in the world, the best way was to release the remnants of the mirror one by one, as long as they got rid of the shackles of this mirror, the remnants of these victims who had turned into powerful ghosts would find their memories of their lives.
Therefore, a certain young official of Dali Temple is ready to take this moon mirror to Tongzhou on the same day, first summon the remnants of the couple wandering outside in Tongzhou, and then use the ritual to release the remnants in the mirror, and the ghosts will recover their memories by themselves, just ask some doubts in the case on the spot, and then try to help the souls of these victims find their own place, and the case will be settled.
Although Zhang Tingrui did not say it, the courtiers also knew that the young official was The Prince of Cheng.
In order to praise the powerful officials who had made a great effort in this case, the saint immediately decreed that the officials of Dali Temple and the guards of The Anhua Gate would be personally feasted at the Hanyuan Hall that night, and the zheng, wuhou, and bad people in various workshops who had been patrolling the city day and night to protect the pregnant women in the city for several days also had their own rewards.
As soon as this holy decree was promulgated, the clouds hanging over Chang’an City were swept away, and the people in the city celebrated with their hands in their hands, and those who had pregnant relatives in their homes were even more overjoyed because they no longer had to hang their hearts day and night.
That night, a group of officials from the Dali Temple entered the palace for a banquet, and the saint made it clear that he would feast on all the officials, so only a few guards were left in the yamen to guard the important prisoners.
Before the banquet of the Hanyuan Hall was over, a shocking news came from Dali Temple.
The prisoner named Zhuang Mu was probably worried that the Dali Temple would interrogate him with all his might, and when there were only a few old guards in the prison, he actually injured the jailers and escaped.
Dali Temple searched all night, and until dawn, it was unable to find the whereabouts of Zhuang Mu.
***
The next evening, Lin Chengyou and Yan Ji nao came out of Dali Temple.
At the door, in addition to the Absolute Saint and renunciation of wisdom, there were also two Daoist chiefs of the Eastern Ming Temple, Jiantian and Jianxian, and the four of them were talking, and they saw Lin Chengyou come out and rush to meet them.
They all saw that Lin Chengyou was not in a good mood, because the usual smile on his face was gone, but he knew it when he thought about it, and it was difficult to solve the big case, and let a major criminal like Zhuang Mu escape from under his hands.
Lin Chengyou took out the tightly wrapped Yueshuo Mirror from his arms and solemnly handed it to the two Dao Chiefs: “Some details of the Tongzhou case need to be clarified as soon as possible, otherwise the case cannot be closed.” Originally, I wanted to take this Moon Shuo Mirror to the same state in person, but now I had to be ordered to arrest the fugitives, and my two little brothers and disciples were too young to be embarrassed by heavy responsibilities, so I had to bother the two Dao long-distance runners. This is my boss Yan Ji Nao, I guess you are familiar with each other, take care of each other all the way. Yan
Ji was busy greeting Tiantian and the others.
Lin Chengyou then pointed to the two servants behind him and said, “These two are the best servants in our Dali Temple, and I am also relieved to have them escort you.”
Seeing Tian and Seeing Immortal said busily, “Good to say, good to say.” Shizi, the main family behind Zhuang Mu’s curtain was able to get the Moon Shuo Mirror, it can be seen that it is not trivial, you concentrate on catching this thief, such small things will be handed over to us at ease, don’t forget that our Dongming Temple is the Longest Taoist Temple in Chang’an, and the Taoist Law has never been under your Qingyun Temple. The
Absolute Saint and the Renunciation of Wisdom also said, “Brother Master, you can rest assured.” Lin Chengyou looked
up at the sky, today is a cloudy day, it is best to leave early to rush the road, although it is still not very assured, and he had to let a group of people on the road. After all, it was a “business trip”, and this time I saw the sky and the immortals did not dare to insist on riding their own little donkey, but obediently went to the horse prepared for them by the Dali Temple.
It was late when I set off, seeing the sky and seeing the immortals was a basket of words, the absolute saints and the abandoned wisdom also loved to nag, and the group talked while walking, and they did not feel lonely on the road.
Unconsciously, near the Mingyi Gate, in front of it was the Forbidden Guard of the Xingqing Palace, and then continued to go forward for a while, it was about to leave the Chunming Gate, at this time the sky was completely dark, and the surrounding area was getting more and more silent.
Since the abortion case occurred, the people in the city have not dared to go out lately, and although the murderer has been arrested recently, he has not yet been caught, so except for some patrolling Wuhou on the street, there is hardly a figure to be seen.
Walking along, seeing the sky seems to feel that something is not quite right, while vigilantly looking around, while concentrating on listening, suddenlyRan grabbed the reins and drank, “No, there is an ambush– ”
Saying that it was late and fast, several figures suddenly appeared in the slash, and the light of the sword was as bright as a snow wave, directly piercing the front of the sky and the immortal.
“Where’s the thief?”
The two servants also scolded, “Such a bold man, even the people of Dali Temple dare to make a decision!”
Seeing the sky and seeing the immortals swinging their swords to greet each other, the absolute saint and the abandonment of wisdom also frightened the horse to fight, but I don’t know whether the other party is too outstanding, or the people such as the sky are too good, only to exchange hands for two rounds, and when they see the sky, they are knocked off the horse.
Seeing that Tiantian did not forget to drag Yan Sizhi off his horse, while awkwardly escorting YanJi zhi to flee backwards, he said in his mouth: “Quickly send a letter to the nearby Wuhou, absolute saint abandon wisdom, you don’t have to hold on hard, beware of being injured by thieves!” The
Absolute Saint cried, “Elder Dao, didn’t you say that you were better than Master and Brother?” Seeing
the sky jump faster: “Lao Dao has not even figured out the origin of these people, why do you have to fight so hard?”
Seeing Tiantian running, the gang of thieves actually gave up the Absolute Saint and the others, and chased after him directly, and when they saw Tian’s heart, they were surprised, and overheard Yan Jizhi exclaiming, “Dao Chief, you are bleeding from your body.” Seeing
the sky, he looked down in shock, and sure enough, a stream of dirty blood flowed from his chest.
Seeing that the sky was shocked, he hurriedly touched the front placket and felt the moon mirror, only to find that the blood was flowing out of the mirror.
He busily tapped his head on the door: “I almost forgot to carry this thing on my body-”
The words did not fall, and his hands were empty, and as soon as the thieves saw the mirror, they took off, and the probe arm approached and snatched the mirror away.
Seeing that Tiantian and the others were frightened, they couldn’t care less about taking the mirror back, and shouted while running: “There are thieves robbing the imperial court, come on people!” The thief didn’t
seem to mean to hurt anyone, grabbed the moon mirror and left everyone behind, turned around and fled along the road, disappearing into the alley in the blink of an eye.
The leading thief was obviously very familiar with the surrounding environment, took the mirror into his arms, turned a few corners in succession, and quickly fled to a narrow alley, the thieves ripped off their covers and breathed a sigh of relief, next to the narrow alley was a vacant house, as long as they climbed over the wall to change this dress, but before he climbed the wall, his eyes suddenly lit up.
The man’s face was heavy, and in the dark corner of the alley, there were already people waiting.
Someone came from the shadows, a young man, with torches raised, and a familiar face reflected in the light of the fire.
A chill welled up on the man’s back, and this young man Gu Panwei was like a beautiful jade, and it was Lin Chengyou.
Lin Chengyou approached with a torch, although he had prepared in his heart, but he really saw the man’s face, and complex emotions still flashed in his eyes.
“It’s really you.”
The different color on Song Jian’s face slowly faded away, and he laughed at himself: “It’s difficult for you, laying down such a big situation, just to wait for me to show my flaws.” ”
