The lama looked surprised and said anxiously: "What I did has nothing to do with Hutuktu, and... it has nothing to do with the Ancient Elephant Kingdom."
Seeing his reaction, Qi Ning was obviously worried that the Chu State would become an enemy of the Guxiang Kingdom.
The Ancient Elephant Kingdom is located in Qinghai-Tibet. Although it has a great master named Zhuri Dharma King, it is vast and sparsely populated and lacks resources. Naturally, its strength cannot match that of the powerful countries in the Central Plains.
"Who is Hutuktu?" Qining was a little surprised.
The lama was stunned, closed his mouth, but did not speak. Qining sneered: "You can keep silent, but if you can't explain this matter clearly, I can only send you to the court. Since you have laid a trap here to harm I, of course, have been planning for a long time and know my situation very well. Then you should know that now I have taken charge of the Xingbu Yamen of Chu State and will bring you to the Xingbu Yamen for interrogation. As long as the court knows that you are from the Guxiang Kingdom, this will This incident will cause disputes between the two countries. If you want to see things develop like that, we might as well go on like that."
"Kutuktu is Gongzashi." The lama finally said: "In the words of your Central Plains, it means saint. Gongzashi is one of the four major Hutuktu in the Ancient Elephant Kingdom. It is dedicated to serving the Zhushen Temple. The saint!"
"Zhuri Temple?" Qi Ning frowned slightly: "Is it the temple of Zhuri Dharma King?"
The lama said: "Yes, the Zhuri Temple is the temple built for the Great Dharma King. It is a place of pilgrimage for our Ancient Elephant Kingdom."
"Then who are you?" Qining asked, "Are you also a disciple of Dharma King Zhuri?"
The lama said solemnly: "The Dharma King is the messenger of God, and his power is boundless. Is anyone qualified to be the disciple of the Dharma King? Hutuktu is the disciple of the Dharma King, and we are the messengers of the temple...!" I feel that I said something. Duo, paused for a moment, then said: "I am Gegu in the temple, my name is Jebdanba. If you want to ask questions, you should come to me, Jebdanba. I am willing to bear all the consequences of what I have done." .”
"Gegu?"
"Gegu is the monk of the temple. In your words, it is an iron staff." Jebdanba stared at Qining's eyes: "I have said everything that needs to be said, you can kill me now."
Qining smiled and said: "Do you think these words have been explained? Zhebdanba, since you know that your level is not enough, you should know that at least Gongzashi must come forward to talk to me about this matter. He Where are people now?"
"You can't see him." Jebdanba said: "Hutuktu has returned to the Snowy Mountains and wants to report everything that happened to the Dharma King." He snorted coldly: "The Dharma King sent us to retrieve that thing , but it was stolen by you. If the Great Dharma King knows this, he will definitely burst into thunderous rage and he will definitely punish you!"
"You?" Qining frowned and said, "Who are you in your mouth?"
Zhebdanba said: "Of course I have come into contact with beads...!" He almost blurted out, but stopped in time and choked on the next words. Qining was amused, thinking to himself, since you have already suspected that I stole the box. , but at this time, he didn't dare to say what it was. His mind was really weird, so he said directly: "Beads? What beads?"
Jebdenba hesitated for a moment, then kept silent.
"Zhebdanba, I only wonder about one thing now. You said that things were stolen by me, and that I was trying to sow discord between you and the Northern Han Dynasty. So where is the evidence?" Qining sighed: "It is a matter of national importance. , that's not just nonsense." He stretched out his hand and said, "If you have evidence, show it to me now. If you can really prove that this matter is related to me, I won't talk nonsense and will go to the Snowy Mountains with you to Zhuri. Dharma King explains!”
Jebdanba opened his mouth, but could not speak immediately. He hesitated and finally said: "It's either the Han people or you. Hutuktu said that this matter is probably because we misunderstood the Han people and fell into the trap of Chu. It’s a trap for the Chinese people, since he said that, it can’t be false.”
Qi Ning was stunned and asked curiously: "The evidence you mentioned is Gongzashi's guess?"
"He is Hutuktu, so what he said can't be wrong." Jebdanba said firmly: "Hutuktu said that the beads probably fell into your hands."
Qi Ning sighed and said: "You can't provide any evidence. You can only guess that the things were obtained by me. If your great Dharma King knew about this, I'm afraid he would be in trouble."
"Smoke from the seven orifices?" Zhebdanba obviously had not heard this, and asked: "What is smoke from the seven orifices?"
Qining sneered and said, "I will be pissed to death by you." He felt slightly at ease. He only thought that Jebdanba came to him because he had conclusive evidence. Now it seems that it is just like when they believed that the beads were stolen by Beitang. The people from the Feng Sect stole everything based on their own guesses.
"We didn't bring back the beads, so of course we deserve to die." Zhebdanba said: "When I return to the Snowy Mountains, I will naturally sacrifice my life to plead guilty to the Dharma King." He stared at Qining and said, "But you took the Dharma King The Dharma King will never spare you."
"So, your Dharma King will come out to find me personally?"
Jebdenba said: "Of course the Dharma King will not go down the mountain, but after Gongzashi returns, the Dharma King will send the four great Hutuktu to come to you, and you will not be able to run away."
"Are you threatening me?" Qining sneered, "If you plan to kill me this time, even if your people from the Ancient Elephant Kingdom don't come to you, we will come. By the way, the four great Hutuktu, right? Don’t worry, I will find them one by one.”
"Are you admitting that you took the beads away?" Jebdanba opened his eyes wide.
Qining said: "Which of your ears heard me admit that I took the beads? Zhebdanba, you coerced women and set up a trap here to harm me. If word spreads, your great Dharma King's reputation will be ruined. Hehe, Zhuri The people under the throne of Dharma actually coerce the weak, this really needs to be judged by the people of the world."
"I... I just scared them. I didn't... never really want to harm them." Jebdanba immediately became anxious and defended: "I just wanted to make sure whether the beads were taken away by you."
"Do you think I will believe you?" Qining said: "Do you think I will bring the beads with me and let you search my body after I am fascinated by your medicine?"
Jebdanba said: "Of course not. I...!" He seemed to want to say something, but in the end he closed his mouth and did not continue.
"Are you speechless?" Qining sneered: "Coercion of women, secret poisoning, cockcrows and dog robbers... Jebdanba, all these good things you did were ordered by Gongzashi? Yes, that should be it, you You are a subordinate of Gongzhaxi. If you dare to be so bold, you are naturally under the command of Gongzhaxi." He took his feet away from Gongzhaxi, stood up and said, "I will ask someone to take you to the Yamen of the Ministry of Justice now. , and then report the matter to the emperor overnight, the emperor should first send an envoy to your Ancient Elephant Kingdom to question the matter, and ask whether your Ancient Elephant Kingdom can coerce women to secretly poison...!"
Jebdanba could not move, but his eyes showed anxiety, and he shouted: "I... I didn't mean it. This has nothing to do with Gonza Hutuktu. It's all me... I did it myself." "
"You can say so." Qining smiled at him: "I don't know if others believe it or not. You have no evidence to prove that the beads were stolen by me, but I caught you for coercing a woman to poison her secretly. Wait, I have someone here to testify and see how you can quibble." After saying this, he walked away. Jebdanba blinked his eyes repeatedly and said anxiously: "Wait, wait, I have something to say. explain!"
Qi Ning secretly laughed. Although Jebdanba had set up this trap, it seemed that he was not a very scheming character. He was just a little clever. He stopped and asked without looking back: "What else do you want to say?"
"Gongzhaxi... Gongzhaxi did ask me to stay in the capital of Chu and keep an eye on you secretly." Jebdanba hesitated for a moment, but said honestly: "He told me not to act rashly, let alone be discovered by you...!"
"Is this what Gongzashi ordered you to do?" Qining turned around and sneered: "I'm afraid that's not necessarily the case!"
"Really, what I said is true." Zhebdanba said: "Originally... I never thought of provoking you, but... But I want to make a big contribution!"
"Big credit?"
Zhebdanba said: "Gongzhaxi said that you are a Marquis of Chu State, and there must be many masters around you. Others may not know the use of the beads if they get them, but... But if you get them, you will probably use them. "
Qi Ning thought that what you said was correct. The Youhan Pearl has indeed been integrated into my body now, but he deliberately looked confused and said: "Being used by me? What does that mean?"
Jebdanba was obviously really worried about bringing shame to the Ancient Elephant Kingdom because of this matter. He hesitated for a moment and then explained: "The beads were taken from sea clams. They have... very powerful medicinal effects, so... !" He seemed to be very conflicted in his heart. He wanted to explain clearly, but he didn't want to be too clear. He said vaguely: "Anyway... Anyway, if you get it, you must have used it by now. If you want to prove your innocence, then... easy."
"Prove innocence?" Qi Ning asked deliberately: "How to prove it?"
Zhebdanba said: "I won't tell you. If you want to know, now that my acupuncture points have been unlocked, I will know as soon as I check. If I am wrong, I will apologize to you and let you do whatever you want. And... and I will ask The King of Dharma has made it clear and clears your suspicions."
Qi Ning smiled and said: "You are playing tricks, I won't be fooled." But he was secretly surprised in his heart, thinking that this lama didn't seem to be lying, I was afraid that he really had a way to test whether he had used Youhan Pearl.
At this time, I suddenly understood that Jebdanba had set tonight's trap, probably after he was knocked unconscious by the drug, and then checked whether he had used Youhan Beads. Once he really found out that Youhan Beads had been integrated into his body, , this lama is afraid that he will take himself back to the Snowy Mountains.
But Zhebdanba said seriously: "I don't play tricks. Just let me check your Shaoyin Heart Meridian and Triple Burner Meridian of Hand Shaoyang. I will know clearly whether the beads are yours. Do you dare to let them go?" I check?"
