The melodious sound of the bell echoed in the Lingwu Temple, which shocked the birds to spread their wings and leave the branches.
The pilgrims were astonished, wondering what was going on.
Fortunately, there were not many pilgrims in the afternoon, and soon monks came to arrange for the pilgrims to leave.
Yu Jin opened the door immediately.
Morning bells and evening drums, the ringing of the bell at this time generally means that there is an emergency.
Soon Jiang Si and Jiang Zhan walked out of their respective rooms.
The three stood under the corridor and looked out.
A monk walked quickly, and when the three of them approached, they put their hands together in eleven salutes: "Amitabha, there is an emergency in the temple, and the donors should not move around for the time being."
Yu Jin raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Master's words are a bit difficult for a strong man. We are pilgrims, and we are not imprisoned in your temple. Why should our freedom be restricted?"
The monk was startled.
There was an accident in the temple, and he was ordered to come to remind the pilgrims who were temporarily staying, how could there be such a hard to talk about
Although Lingwu Temple is small, it is famous far and near, and its incense is flourishing. Of course, the monks will not damage the reputation of the temple. After the initial mistake, he explained patiently: "The donor misunderstood, the little monk informed several donors about this, because there is some chaos in the temple now. , I'm afraid I'll bump into a few donors."
"Uh, so it is."
Jiang Zhan took the opportunity to ask, "I don't know what happened to your temple?"
The monk was stunned again, and when he looked at the age of the three, he suddenly realized.
It's not surprising that teenagers are curious when they're insane.
While the monk was hesitating, Jiang Zhan said in surprise, "Isn't it a good idea to speak to outsiders?"
Monk: "..." I know and ask!
But it has already been asked here. If you don't say it, it's easy to lead people to speculate. And a temple like them that receives the most believers is the most taboo, so the monk said: "A junior brother has passed away."
Jiang Xi and Yu Jin looked at each other.
When she touched the other's line of sight, she hurriedly moved away, unavoidably annoyed in her heart: Could it be that my brother is too unreliable, and he subconsciously wanted to see what he meant when he encountered something
Jiang Zhan said with a "huh": "Quiet? Master looks so young. Your junior brother should be younger than you, right? Is this young enough to complete the merits and virtues?"
The corner of the monk's mouth twitched, and he muttered to Amitabha Buddha to resolve the urge to fight and defeat the Buddha in an instant, and explained: "Junior and brother died in an accident—"
"Accident? What kind of accident?" Jiang Zhan looked frightened. "Your temple looks peaceful. Could it be that there is any danger? The masters should have reminded us pilgrims earlier."
"Buddha Amitabha, the donor is too worried, there is no danger in the temple, the junior brother had an accident while fetching water—"
Jiang Zhan put away his exaggerated expression and asked after a moment of silence, "I don't know what that master's name is?"
Although the monk was surprised, he still answered Jiang Zhan's words: "Junior and disciple's name is Sikong."
Jiang Zhan took a half step back.
The monk finally got a chance to escape, recited Amitabha again, and walked quickly to another row of guest rooms.
Jiang Zhan stood blankly, and Yu Jin reached out and patted his shoulder.
Jiang Zhan came back to his senses, glanced at the monk who was far away, and said in a low voice: "Fourth sister, Brother Yu Qi, do you know that the monk who was pouring the ground in the back hill at noon was called Sikong! "
"Second brother suspects that the monk did not die in an accident?"
"Of course, how could there be such a coincidence!" Having said this, Jiang Zhan frowned, "But at noon, he obviously didn't find anything, so how could he die?"
"It's not hard to guess, it means that there was indeed something in that well, and then the monk found out after the second brother Jiang left, so—" Yu Jin smiled lightly, "it was silenced."
Jiang Zhan patted his forehead angrily: "I knew I would have persevered to the end."
Yu Jin smiled and said, "If that's the case, I'm afraid there will be one more person."
Jiang Zhan was stunned for a while, and said dissatisfiedly: "Brother Yu Qi, you curse me, if I really stay there, nothing will happen."
"Why?"
"Brother Yu Qi will definitely save me." Jiang Zhan said as a matter of course.
Yu Jin couldn't help but twist his expression at this moment.
Glancing at the sky, Yu Jin said to Jiang in a solicitous tone, "It's getting late, let's leave."
"Wait—" Jiang Zhan squeezed Yu Jin's arm, "We can't just leave like this!"
"Huh?" Yu Jin stared at the hand on his arm, rather unhappy.
What does it look like to move your hands and feet in front of Ashi!
"It's dead, and it's very likely that more than one person died!"
"so what?"
"So let's not find out the murderer?" Jiang Zhan was stunned when he saw that both of them were lacking in interest.
Yu Jin's tone was light: "We didn't kill people, and they are not related to us."
If you want to catch the murderer on someone else's site, if the murderer is a member of the monks, you can get out with a little instigation and face a monk in a temple, let alone find the murderer, it will take some time to get out.
With Jiang being there, Yu Jin never wanted to do such a thankless thing to get the three of them into trouble.
"But if we turn a blind eye to this kind of thing, can we go with our conscience?" Jiang Zhan still didn't give up.
He's dead again, maybe as soon as he closes his eyes, two ghosts will come to chat with him.
Yu Jin gave Jiang Zhan a funny look: "Conscience? I don't have one."
"Brother Yu Qi, you are actually such a person!" Jiang Zhan clutched his chest and was heartbroken.
He thought it was Yu Jin's joke, so it was also an exaggerated tone of joke.
Brother Yu Qi was in a good mood, and he lived with him all his life. Didn't he save him at that time
He clearly has the righteousness of seeing the injustice but doesn't show it. Brother Yu Qi is really a rare good person.
"Really not, my heart—" Yu Jin glanced at Jiang Si lightly, and said lightly, "I lost it."
Jiang Si lowered his eyes.
Don't forget to tease her at this time, that's enough!
"Second brother, let's go, I'm a little scared." Seeing pilgrims coming out of other guest rooms one after another, Jiang Si said softly.
Jiang Zhan supported his forehead: "I'm really confused. How can I forget that the fourth sister is a girl's family, and I will be afraid of this kind of thing. The fourth sister, it's the second brother's fault, let's go now."
Forget it, if there is a ghost looking for him to chat, just chat, maybe the two ghosts chat speculatively, and he will have nothing to do.
Aman, the little maid who has been a wooden stake, gave Jiang Zhan a sympathetic look.
The second son is really naive, will their girls be afraid? Ha ha.
As soon as they heard that several people were leaving, the monk could not ask for it, so he hurriedly saw the guests off.
The group rushed back to the inn, and there were already many people enjoying the shade outside the inn, discussing what happened in Lingwu Temple.
"I heard that the monk accidentally slipped and fell while fetching water, and knocked his head on the edge of the well. At that time, his head broke blood. It's really pitiful."
"Why don't you say fate is determined by heaven..."
When the sun was about to set, Ah Man found an opportunity to report quietly: "Girl, Ah Fei has sent a letter from Lao Qin, saying that you asked him to inquire about Mr. Li's house in Dayang Town, and his girl came to Lingwu Temple today. Shang Xiang, I haven't gone back yet..."
