Sun Shaozong stroked the slightly rounded dent, and he was also suspicious.
According to the autopsy report, the penetrating injury on Jie Ming's chest was indeed caused by repeated gouges, which basically conformed to Master Qi's inference that he had an iron drill in one hand and a hammer in the other.
But why didn't Jie Ming resist
Or…
When the murderer started the operation, the monk Jie Ming was still unconscious. Later, although he was awake due to severe pain, he was already unable to return to the sky. He only had time to desperately grab the iron drill in front of his chest
How could he be transported out of Fayuan Temple while he was in a coma
Sun Shaozong was contemplating here, but the two acquaintance monks who greeted him couldn't bear their temper.
"Is that what you can ask?"
Qiu Yunfei gave them a twist and scolded: "Go, go, hurry up and call Jie Yan and Jiexu to the main hall..."
"Let them wait in the vigilance room."
Sun Shaozong got up and patted the dust off his hands, and said, "This official is going to take a look at the meditation rooms of Jiezhi and Jieming first."
The two little monks looked at each other, and one of them immediately turned around and entered the temple.
The remaining one gave up his hand and said calmly, "Then everyone, come with the little monk."
It is said that the shop is bullying customers, and this temple is no exception because of its big name. Even the little monk who guards the door has a good temper. After eating Qiu Yunfei's scolding, even the 'adult' refused to call.
However, after more than half a month of investigation, none of the hairs were found. Instead, two monks died. It is no wonder that the Fayuan Temple was dissatisfied with the Shuntian House.
Therefore, Sun Shaozong used his eyes to stop Qiu Yunfei's urge to go wild, and led the crowd into the Fayuan Temple silently.
As the first treasure temple in the capital, Fayuan Temple occupies a large area. After entering the gate, it goes all the way to the west, passing through the main hall, the side hall, the bamboo forest, the rockery, the clear stream, and the small bridge. The little monk pointed to the houses in the front row. Said: "Uncle Jiezhi lives in the second row, and Master Jieming lives in the third row, but I don't know which one do you want to see first?"
Hearing this, Sun Shaozong first looked back at the great hall hidden by the bamboo forest, and measured it in his heart. He found that the distance between the meditation room and the gate was at least one mile away, and there was a Taoist wall in the middle.
"Apart from the courtyard gate just now, does this meditation room have other entrances and exits?"
"Of course not."
The little monk who led the way shook his head flatly and said, "Not to mention that there are no other entrances and exits. At the second watch, even the only courtyard gate will be locked."
tsk~
According to the autopsy report, Jie Ming died between the third and fourth watch, most likely in the middle of the night. Since the second watch is about to be locked, it is difficult to get Jie Ming out and kill him unknowingly. even bigger.
It seems that it is only possible for those who have the key to hold the key...
Shaking his head, temporarily pressing this preconceived judgment to the bottom of his heart, Sun Shaozong tapped the third row of courtyards with his chin, and said, "Let's go to Jie Ming's house to have a look first."
It is said that all living beings are equal, but the monks in the temple are treated differently according to their identities.
For example, the young monks of the Xuanzi generation who lead the way usually sleep in a room for sixteen people. As for the monks of the Jiezi generation, they are assigned to a quadruple room or a double room according to their duties—and only the Jiezi generation. Only the first disciples like anger and vigilance are qualified to have a meditation room of their own.
The four monks who followed Jie Yan to the house arrest that day all had positions in the Zhike Yuan, and naturally they lived in double rooms.
But when it came to Jie Ming's meditation room, he saw that the doors and windows had the seals of Shuntian Mansion on them. Zhao Wuwei led a few yamen to step forward and checked it carefully. door seal.
Sun Shaozong stretched out his hand and pushed it, and saw that it was empty inside, except for tables, chairs, beds, and a half-person-high cabinet, there was almost no other furniture.
But he still scanned it carefully a few times before stepping in.
Master Qi followed closely, pointed to the two beds and said, "The one on the left is Jie Ming's bed, and the one on the right is Jie Xiu's."
"Retired?"
Sun Shaozong frowned and said solemnly: "So, Jie Xiu also lives here? Then why didn't you mention this on the case file?"
Master Qi was a little embarrassed by his questioning, but he still explained truthfully: "Jie Xiu has a solid alibi after all, and after Jie Ming's death, he also temporarily moved to the guest room of Dongkuanyuan, and did not sleep here. In a meditation room, so…”
Sun Shaozong nodded, reluctantly agreeing with his explanation, but turned his face and asked about the relationship between Jie Ming and Jie Xiu.
"It is said that the two were young before they became ordained, and they were ordained to be ordained at Faming Temple at almost the same time, so their relationship was very good, otherwise they would not have lived in the same meditation room."
"However, after Jie Chih's death, because only Jie Ming did not have an alibi and was identified as the first suspect, Jiexi would inevitably have some doubts and fears about him, so he would move to the East Crossing Hospital for a temporary stay."
While listening to Master Qi's explanation, Sun Shaozong looked around and found nothing else, except that there was a stack of hand-transcribed scriptures on the desk, about twenty pages.
The ten or so pages above were cluttered, but when they turned to the back, the handwriting gradually became neater.
At the end of the scriptures, the words 'Jieming of Fayuan Temple, transcribed on the 14th day of the seventh month of the 11th year of Guangde' were written - and this was the day before Jieming was killed.
When Master Qi saw Sun Shaozong flipping through the scriptures, he said, "This must be the scriptures that Monk Jieming copied for peace of mind when he was in a state of anxiety, so at the beginning, the copying was messy and disorderly, but gradually he settled down and wrote neatly. ."
Sun Shaozong was noncommittal about his reasoning, but he took the stack of scriptures to the door and looked at it repeatedly in the sunlight.
"grown ups."
Qiu Yunfei leaned up curiously, and also looked at it for a few times, but he couldn't see anything to see, and couldn't help but wonder: "You looked so carefully, what did you see?"
"Rare is not."
Sun Shaozong said indifferently: "But these scriptures were not written on the same day, but were written over several days. In addition, the more he wrote, the more calm he became, but the more irritable he became. It has nothing to do with the scriptures themselves."
When Master Qi heard the words, he hurried over and asked Sun Shaozong about the scriptures. He followed his talent and carefully screened it line by line.
After a while, he let out an 'Oops' and said angrily, "Sure enough, it wasn't written on the same day! The student was really careless, he hurriedly flipped through it twice, and when he saw that it was just an ordinary scripture, there was nothing too great about it. If you care too much, who would think…”
Qiu Yunfei still couldn't see the truth, and wondered: "How do you know that this scripture was not written in a day? Besides, even if you know it was not written in a day, what's the use?"
"Ya Nei, please take a look."
Master Qi naturally did not dare to neglect him, and hurriedly pointed to the scripture and explained: "Although there is no difference at first glance, if you look closely in the sun, you can still vaguely distinguish the ink color between the words - these The color difference should be caused by re-grinding and writing after a considerable period of time."
"And in these places with color difference, the neatness of the upper and lower characters is also larger than other places - and it is obvious that the text above the color difference is more chaotic. It can be seen that the more he writes, the more upset he is, so he failed several times in a row. Finish this scripture."
"As for knowing the usefulness of these..."
"Since it's not the role of transcribing scriptures, then Monk Jie Ming must have encountered something that suppressed the anxiety in his heart."
"And this change, since it happened the day before his death, is most likely related to this case."
"So as long as we can figure out what caused his emotional changes, it is possible to find clues to solve the case."
As he spoke, he bowed his hands with both shame and admiration: "Your Excellency's ability to know the book at a glance really makes the students feel ashamed."
