Everyone looked at Wu Ruo.
Wu Ruo burst into a big smile: "I'm just too excited, I never thought that I would be lucky enough to see the fairy artifact up close in this life, and even feel the fairy energy emanating from the fairy artifact, while other magicians live a lifetime, You may not be able to see the Immortal Artifact.”
The abbot smiled slightly: "That's true. There are not many immortal artifacts in the world today. Lao Na has lived for three hundred years, and he has only heard of three immortal artifacts. One of them is the immortal named 'Gan Buddha' in front of you." The other two are in other countries, and Lao Na has never seen them before."
Wu Ruo asked curiously, "There are only three fairy artifacts left in the world, right?"
"There should be more than three, but we don't know where they are."
Wu Ruo asked: "Master Abbot, can I touch the fairy artifact?"
The master abbot nodded: "Of course."
Immortal artifacts are not fragile, so they can naturally be touched by people.
Wu Ruo carefully picked up the fairy artifact: "Master, can I take it to the window and have a good look at it in the sunlight?"
The master abbot nodded.
Wu Ruo turned around and walked to the window, and put the fairy artifact under the sun to look after it. The sunlight shone on the golden lotus leaves of the fairy artifact, as if the fairy artifact had just fallen from the fairy world, refracting countless golden lights, so beautiful that people couldn't bear to blink. However, the reflected light was very dazzling, and everyone in the room squinted their eyes.
"It's so beautiful." Wu Ruo looked at it carefully for a while, then put the fairy artifact back to its original position, and thanked the abbot and the others with clasped hands: "Thank you, masters, for letting us watch the fairy artifact.
He took out a stack of silver bills from his sleeve: "Here is one million silver bills, which is the incense money that our husband and wife add to the temple, and the incense in Wangneng Temple is even more prosperous.
"Thank you for the benefactor, the Lord Buddha will bless your husband and wife to grow old together." The master abbot took the bank note.
Wu Chenzi raised his eyebrows, and thought to himself, the kid surnamed Hei is really rich, any incense stick is worth one million taels of silver.
Wu Ruo said: "We have seen the fairy artifact, now we want to offer incense in the Buddhist hall."
The master abbot first asked Elder Tong Zhou to send the celestial artifact to the pagoda, and then asked the young monk outside the door to take them to the Great Buddha Hall.
Wu Chenzi stayed in the meditation room because he still had something to discuss with the abbot.
Wu Ruo came to the Buddhist hall, sincerely took three sticks of incense and worshiped the Buddha, and said in her heart: Buddha, please don't blame me for what I did today.
He stood up and put it on the incense burner.
Immediately afterwards, someone outside shouted: "It's on fire, it's on fire, the pagoda is on fire.
When the pilgrims who offered incense in the Buddha heard this, they ran out of the Buddhist hall in panic.
Wu Ruo didn't move, seeing that the three sticks of incense he had planted hadn't been broken, she breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and walked out of the Buddhist hall with Hei Xuanyi to the backyard, and heard the monk anxiously shouting from a distance: "Someone is going to steal the magic weapon!" , everyone, hurry up and catch the thieves."
Many monks rushed to the direction of the pagoda, and the emergency bell rang along with it. The temple was on alert, and all pilgrims were not allowed to leave the temple for the time being.
After about three sticks of incense time, gradually, the pagoda became quiet.
Wu Ruo and Hei Xuanyi were stopped by monks when they rushed outside the pagoda compound.
Wu Ruo explained: "We came with Master Guoshi."
When Wu Chenzi saw Wu Ruo, he asked the monk to let them in.
Wu Ruo asked: "My lord, what happened?"
Wu Chenzi took a deep look at him, and said angrily: "Someone took advantage of the opportunity to seize the treasure when Elder Tong Zhou put the celestial artifact back into the pagoda, and even burned down the thousand-year-old pagoda. Unforgivable sin."
The monks around were also very angry and excited when they heard Wu Chenzi's words, and they all said that these sinners would be severely punished.
Wu Ruo looked surprised: "There is such a thing, who is so bold to commit such a heinous crime?"
"Master Abbot, they are still investigating this matter."
Soon, the monks moved the corpses of all those who wanted to snatch the treasure to the courtyard in front of the pagoda and put them in a good place. There were a total of thirty-seven corpses, and the snatchers were all wearing night clothes and covered their faces tightly. real.
Wu Chenzi walked up to the abbot and said, "Master abbot, the person who snatched the treasure this time must have known that we were coming to the Lotus Buddha Temple to see the celestial artifact, so he took the opportunity to snatch the celestial artifact when it was taken out of the pagoda.
The abbot also agrees with him. If the fairy artifact is placed in the pagoda, it is almost impossible to steal the treasure. The only way to get the fairy artifact is to leave the pagoda.
Wu Chenzi thought for a while, "But this deity's trip came suddenly, without any arrangement, so who would want to take away the fairy artifact?"
As he spoke, he looked at Wu Ruo and Hei Xuanyi on the other side.
The abbot followed his gaze and frowned.
Elder Tong Zhou pointed to the corpses on the ground and said, "Let's see who these people are on the ground first."
The abbot nodded.
Wu Chenzi looked at Wu Ruo, curled his lips slightly, and thought, Wu Ruo, you just wait to be convicted.
Wu Ruo noticed that Wu Chenzi was looking at him, looked up, met calculating eyes, and frowned involuntarily.
The monks squatted down to remove the black cloth covering the corpse's face.
Wu Chenzi glanced at all the corpses, his eyes concentrating on complacency, who are these people? Why is there no one he sent
Suddenly, I had a bad feeling in my heart.
The abbot walked up to the corpse and took a look, but he didn't recognize anyone. He frowned and asked, "Is there no one who caught the treasure alive?"
The monk beside him replied, "There is one."
Then, two monks tied another person in black night clothes and walked in, ripped off the other person's face scarf, and pushed the person in front of the abbot.
The man committed suicide by gnashing his teeth and taking the poison, and fell to the ground with a bang.
The abbot was startled, and quickly squatted down to feed the elixir, but it was still a step too late.
He sniffed, but he was no longer breathing, and he sighed, "Dead."
A monk was shocked and said, "This man, this man is..."
"Who is it?" The abbot raised his head and looked sternly at the monk who was speaking.
Curious, Wu Chenzi came over to take a look, and suddenly opened his pupils in astonishment, and quickly looked at Wu Ruo, his eyes were dark and cold, timid people would be frightened by his eyes.
The monk looked at Wu Chenzi with a cold face: "It is the guard next to the Master of the State Teacher. This disciple has seen it several times."
"What?" Everyone looked at Wu Chenzi in surprise.
Wu Chenzi suppressed the overwhelming anger and surprise in his heart, and said calmly: "It is indeed my body's guard, named Yao Jinkun, and it is his turn to be on duty in the palace today, so I didn't bring him here."
Wu Ruo is really good at it, even Yao Jinkun can get it here.
However, it was obviously something he planned, so why did he change people halfway
Where did all the people he arranged for go
"Who is that person? Why are you standing at the gate and peeking furtively?" Elder Tongji suddenly shouted.
The monk guarding the door immediately caught him in. The one who peeked was a young monk in a light blue robe.
The little monk quickly said: "I have met the abbot and all the elders.
Elder Tongji asked angrily, "Why did you sneakily hide outside the gate just now?"
The little monk quickly replied: "The young one is the monk who is in charge of cleaning the pilgrim's yard. Because he thought the treasure thief looked familiar, he came here to take a look."
Elder Tongji was startled: "You recognize them?"
The little monk hurriedly shook his head: "I don't know them, how could my disciple know them."
"Don't panic, Lao Na means have you seen them?"
"Disciples need to take a closer look to know if they have seen them."
"Then take a look."
The little monk quickly stood up, looked at them a few times before leaving, his expression changed, he pointed at them and said, "I know them."
Everyone looked at him.
The master abbot quickly asked, "Who are they?"
"It's a guest who lives in the pilgrim compound."
"Guests living in the pilgrim compound?" Elder Tongji frowned: "You mean they are pilgrims brought in by Elder Tongmiao?"
When Wu Chenzi heard the word Tongmiao, his heart skipped a beat, and he already roughly guessed who the corpses on the ground were.
"Yes." The little monk nodded: "It's them, the disciples are responsible for cleaning the pilgrim's yard, and we can often see them, so I will definitely not mistake them. Also, they are more than these people, and half of them should still be in the pilgrim's yard. inside.
Elder Tongji hastily ordered the monks in the temple to surround the Xiangyuan compound, and then sent someone to invite Elder Tongmiao here.
Wu Chenzi walked to Wu Ruo's side, lowered his voice and said in a gloomy voice, "Wu Ruo, it's really tricky, it's the deity who underestimated you."
After counting and counting, he even missed the people who lived in the pilgrim compound. However, he sent these people to the temple quietly, how did Wu Ruo find out that Sang Lun and the others lived in the pilgrimage compound?
Wu Ruo looked at Wu Chenzi blankly: "My lord, what do you mean by that?"
Wu Chenzi snorted angrily.
Hei Xuanyi took Wu Ruo into his arms, and glanced at Wu Chenzi indifferently.
Not long after, a monk reported back: "Abbot, all the people living in the pilgrim compound have escaped."
The abbot said in a low voice, "Then why don't you hurry up and chase after him."
"Yes."
Then, Elder Tong Miao walked in hurriedly: "Master, I wonder why you asked Lao Na to come over?"
The abbot said with a sullen face: "Lao Na heard that you brought all the pilgrims in the pilgrim compound?"
"Yes." Elder Tongmiao asked strangely, "Do they have a problem?"
"Look for yourself." The abbot pointed to the corpses on the ground: "Are these people you brought in?"
Elder Tongmiao saw that the people on the ground were all wearing night clothes, and was startled. Some of them were familiar faces: "This, these are indeed the people brought in by Lao Na. Why are they all dead?"
As soon as he came out of retreat, a young monk asked him to come to the pagoda. Before and after, he didn't know what happened.
The elder Tongji said angrily: "They were killed by us because they burned the pagoda of the temple and wanted to take away the fairy artifact. Tong Miao, do you know who these people are and why you brought such people to the world?" Come to the temple?"
Hearing this, Elder Tongmiao raised his head in disbelief and looked at the pagoda in the courtyard. The pagoda, which once shone golden under the sunlight, was burnt beyond recognition, and thick white smoke came out.
