Chapter 7 Dongying Guild Hall

Master Xuanzang looked up at Su Dawei, his fingers gently plucking the prayer beads.

Wu Neng didn't expect Su Dawei to ask such a question, so he was stunned for a moment and said, "I think it's probably because they admire my Tang culture." ”

"Then it's okay to read the Buddhist scriptures of the Tang Dynasty, why do you want to read "The Legend of the Western Regions"?"

Su Dawei seemed a little persistent, and asked Wu Neng: "The mage's "Records of the Western Regions" records the terroir and geography of the countries of the Western Regions, what do they have to do after learning?" ”

Wu Neng's mouth moved, and he couldn't answer.

"May I ask, the names of those three monks? Where are they placing orders? ”

"One of them is called Huixing, one is called Kongliu, and the last one is called Xuanming."

Wu Neng thought for a while and said: "You have to register to enter the temple, if I remember well, they settled in the Dongying Guild Hall, and they did not place orders in the temple in Chang'an. ”

"Dongying Guild Hall?"

Su Dawei repeated the name in his mouth.

Then I remembered that this was a chamber of commerce in Chang'an, Datang Dynasty.

There were quite a few Japanese businessmen in it.

"Ami, the envoys sent to the Tang Dynasty by the Wa State began in the fourth year of Zhenguan, and some monks also came to my Tang Dynasty to learn Buddhism."

Xuanzang stirred the rosary and asked softly, "Is there anything wrong?" ”

Su Dawei shook his head: "I don't know, but I can't let go of any suspicions, after all, four children are missing now." ”

"Amitabha."

Master Xuanzang clasped his hands together and recited the Buddha's name lightly.

Wu Neng also clasped his hands on the side, his expression solemn.

"If there's anything I can do to help, just ask." Xuanzang clasped his hands together and looked compassionate.

"Thank you, Mage."

Su Dawei's mind was racing, learning from Xuanzang's appearance, clasping his hands in front of his chest, and bowing slightly to Xuanzang.

That's all you can ask.

For the rest, you have to check the line of the Dongying Hall to find out.

"The first one."

Two elderly monks walked slowly into the meditation room, each holding a thick scroll in his hand: "This is the scripture translated today, please see the first one." ”

"Okay."

Xuanzang got up and motioned for the two monks to put the scroll on the desk.

The translation work is heavy and rigorous,

Master Xuanzang's time is actually not abundant.

"Since the mage still has something to do, Ami will take his leave first, and if there is anything difficult to solve, ask the mage for advice."

Su Dawei hugged his fist for Xuanzang.

"Ami, wait a minute."

Xuanzang picked up a volume of scriptures from the desk, held it in both hands, and walked in front of Su Dawei: "This is my translation of "The Theory of Pure Consciousness", you can read it when you have time, maybe it will help." ”

"Thank you, Mage."

Su Dawei was puzzled, but he still stretched out his hands and took the book.

Wu Neng on the side, put his hands together and said: "The Theory of Pure Consciousness is a combination of the ten major treatises of Tianzhu, such as Qinsheng, Huozhi, Nanda, Dehui, Anhui, Jingyue, Dharma Protector, Shengyou, Shengzi, and Zhiyue, among which there is great wisdom. ”

"Thank you."

Su Dawei smiled bitterly, what he lacked now was not the great wisdom of Buddhism, but how to solve the case as soon as possible.

Fortunately, there is still Chen Min, a bad handsome handsome, in front, but I am afraid that I will not be able to withstand it for long.

Dali Temple and the Criminal Department are pressing,

If the case can't be solved in seven days, then something really will happen.

I'm afraid that even the county monarch Pei Xingjian can't bear this pot.

Su Dawei put the scriptures away closely, nodded to the other monks in the meditation room, walked backwards, walked to the door, and was about to go out, when he suddenly paused at his feet.

He looked up at Master Xuanzang, and blurted out a sentence: "Master, my father, Su Sanlang, what kind of person is he?" ”

When these words were asked, Xuanzang's always calm face flashed with surprise in his eyes.

The walker, who was curled up in the corner of the wall with an iron rod and seemed to be about to take a nap, also opened his eyes to look at him.

Su Dawei couldn't help but touch his face: "Master, is it too abrupt for me to ask?" ”

"Nope."

Xuanzang shook his head and said, "You don't remember Su Sanlang's appearance?" ”

"I'm ashamed to say that he's no longer there when I can remember."

Su Dawei smiled with some regret, but there was some loneliness in this smile.

Liu Niangzi never mentioned this topic, and Su Dawei didn't dare to ask.

Moreover, even in the bad guys, they are very secretive about Su Saburo's affairs, and only occasionally bring up a scaly claw when chatting.

Su Dawei was naturally curious in his heart.

The original Ami should have remembered his father's appearance, but unfortunately after he crossed over, he lost this part of his memory, and he couldn't find Su Saburo's image in his memories at all.

Today, Master Xuanzang took the initiative to mention Su Zhao, which made Su Dawei can't help but be a little impulsive.

He wanted to know, the mage said that he was like Su Saburo, what kind of person was his "father"?

With Wang Xuance's second envoy to Tianzhu, what happened.

Why did Wang Xuance just order someone to send back his weapons, the Evil Breaking Crossbow and the Evil Breaking Knife, but there was no other explanation.

All of this was bothering Su Dawei in his heart and subconsciously.

Master Xuanzang was silent for a moment: "Su Sanlang, he is a good person. I remember that the last time I saw him was in the twenty-first year of Zhenguan, when he had just been summoned by Wang Xuance to prepare for the second envoy to Tianzhu, and after that, I never saw him again. ”

"Did he say anything?"

"No, I didn't."

Xuanzang clasped his hands together and sighed lightly: "That day, when I returned to the Buddhist Temple from Taizong, I saw Su Saburo and Wang Xuance going out of the city in a group, but they just glanced at each other, and they didn't have time to say anything. ”

"I see."

Su Dawei had an indescribable feeling in his heart, originally thought that Master Xuanzang would know a lot about his father, but it seems that this idea has failed.

"The wonder of life can only be said to be impermanent."

Xuanzang muttered: "In the past, when I participated in the debate conference of the King of the Ring of the Sun in Tianzhu, the poor monk would never have thought that the King of the Ring of the Sun would die of illness in a few years......

Everything we see is delusional, everything is impermanent and uncertain, and there is no emptiness. ”

The cigarette smoke was wafting, and in Xuanzang's chanting, Su Dawei turned around and left.

Out of the Buddhist temple, his pace quickened.

In front of him, Nan Jiulang and Qian Hachi, walked quickly to meet him.

"Su Shuai."

"Ami."

Su Dawei nodded: "What did you find?" ”

He didn't go to the Great Mercy and Grace Temple alone on impulse, but also arranged a back hand, so that Nan Jiulang and Qian Bazhi could answer outside.

With Nan Jiulang's excellent eyesight, Qian Bazhi is old and spicy, in case something is not harmonious, he can react in time.

However, obviously, Su Dawei was too worried before, and there was nothing abnormal in the Great Ci'en Temple.

Master Xuanzang is also very kind and honest.

"Su Shuai, I've seen it all around, and there are no suspicious people." Nan Jiulang walked with a limp, but he spoke and acted much more calmly than before.

Qian Bazhi thought for a while and said: "There should be no problem here in the Great Ci'en Temple, I have checked the records of the past half a year, Master Xuanzang is translating scriptures in the Buddhist temple on weekdays, unless His Majesty summons him, he will not leave the temple easily, and the other monks in the temple are the same, which can be called strict precepts." ”

Su Dawei walked forward quickly with them: "I just talked to Master Xuanzang, last night there were three monks from the Wa Kingdom who came here to borrow scriptures, and those three monks can check it down, and now they are settled in the Dongying Hall." ”

"Dongying Guild Hall?"

Nan Jiulang didn't react, but Qian Bazhi couldn't help but read a sentence.

"What? Does the Eighth Master know something? ”

Qian Bazhi shook his head and smashed his mouth: "I have heard that these Japanese people come to Datang to do business, and there are guild halls in many places, and this Dongying guild hall is their stronghold in Chang'an. ”

"What's worth noting?"

"That's not true, I heard that those widows are very well-behaved, and they are very sincere in business, and their reputation is not bad."

Qian Bazhi said, and asked curiously: "What, will they have anything to do with the child robbery case?" ”

"It's hard to say, there are no other clues now, and there is nothing worth paying special attention to here in the Temple of Mercy and Grace, so I can only check the line of the Dongying Hall first."

Su Dawei paused: "Eighth Master, you check the file about the Dongying Guild Hall, Jiulang will help me keep an eye on it from the periphery to see if there are any suspicious people, by the way, help me find the nearby group leader and see if there is anyone familiar with the Dongying Guild Hall, and it is best to go in and have a look." ”

Nan Jiulang and Qian Bazhi should come down with fists.

Su Dawei asked them to do things, and he rushed back to Chang'an County to do things.

The Japanese people are honest in business, and their reputation in Datang is not bad?

This is probably the impression of ordinary people, but it is a pity that the Japanese people that Su Dawei knows are another image.

Chrysanthemum with a knife.

Be humble in front of people, and take a knife behind your back.

He is kind on the surface, but he is cruel on the inside.

Not to mention the previous assassination of Su Dawei by the Japanese people, not long ago, Yang Xirong wanted to steal the secret of Lanchi, except for Sanhan and Goguryeo, isn't there a share of the Japanese people?

Send Tang envoys?

It won't be long before the forces of the Japanese people will enter Sanhan, and if they want to influence the situation on the peninsula, they will also unite with Baekje and Goguryeo to have a "Battle of Baekgang Estuary" with the Tang Dynasty.

In this era, no one knows better than Su Dawei what kind of virtue the Japanese are.

However, these can only be used as circumstantial evidence, and it can be said that the Japanese are not as deferential as they seem, but they are not enough as evidence to prove that the Japanese are the real culprits behind the abduction of children on the night of Shangyuan.

Until now, Su Dawei has not figured out what those people want to do when they kidnap children.

And in that kind of fanfare.

If you start quietly, the impact will be much smaller than now, and it will be easier to succeed, and you will not be stared at by Dali Temple, the Criminal Department, the Chang'an County Ya, and bad people afterwards.

So the very thing itself is abnormal.

It seems unconscionable everywhere.

Su Dawei thought about many doubts in his heart, and just walked into the yamen, he saw an old bad man and walked up quickly.

"Ami."

The other party said nervously: "Dali Temple is here." ”

"Who's coming? Is it for the sake of young children? ”

"It's the master of Dali Temple, and it's for the young children's case." The old bad guy tugged at his sleeve: "The county gentleman is looking for you, asking you to go over for questioning, you are ready." ”

"Thank you."

Su Dawei hugged his fists and walked towards the county monarch Pei Xingjian's public office.

I know in my heart that this is probably the pressure from above again.

You can't hide it, so let's do it.

I don't know if Chen Min and Chen Shuai are there at this time.

It stands to reason that the first choice to take the blame is Chen Min, the handsome, and he is only the deputy marshal, so this pot should not be directly buckled on his head.
