Chapter 444: Farce

Chapter 444 Farce.

The abbot's expression was very flustered, and after coming out of it, he kept talking about Amitabha, sins and sins.

The abbot's nervousness at this time was no less than when Hui Yuan disappeared, as if one or two people died was nothing, but if his Seven Star Temple was burned, it would be a big deal.

It turned out that they had not really attained enlightenment.

The abbot came to Bao Zheng and said apologetically: "Let Lord Bao be frightened, sin and sin!" ”

Bao Zheng didn't take it to heart, but responded: "It's good that the Seven Star Temple has nothing to do." ”

At this time, Hua Lang suddenly asked first: "When you put out the fire, everyone was there?" ”

The abbot didn't quite understand what was going on, so he asked, "Why does the dude ask this?" At that time, everyone was fighting the fire, and they really didn't pay much attention. ”

Hua Lang smiled faintly: "This is not necessarily, everyone carries water to fight the fire, and you always have to meet back and forth, how can you not remember, everyone testifies to each other, and see who you met when you were fighting the fire." ”

As soon as Hua Lang said this, those monks talked a lot, and Bao Zheng seemed to suddenly understand what Hua Lang meant, so he ordered a little strongly: "Tell all the people you met on the way to fight the fire, of course, it must be the period before I was assassinated, and the ones after that are not counted." ”

So, Hua Lang sent someone to bring pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and then asked these monks to write down the people they met when fighting the fire one by one, and those who testified to each other were crossed out, and those who did not testify to each other continued to be retained.

It's just that when everyone went to look at the papers, they were dumbfounded, because the monks in the monastery, each of them had someone to testify to before Bao Zheng was assassinated, they were fighting fires.

Hua Lang looked at these and felt incredible, if the monks were there, then who were the people who performed the assassination, could it be those pilgrims? But those pilgrims really have no reason to be suspicious?

When thinking like this, Hua Lang felt that it was wrong, maybe the disappearance of the monks and pilgrims in the Seven Star Temple in the past few years was done by the people in the Seven Star Temple, and it was another thing to assassinate Bao Zheng, the pilgrims did not kill the monk, but they wanted to kill Bao Zheng!

It's just that if you think about it like this, it still doesn't make sense, that Huiyuan is missing, just like the other missing monks and pilgrims, so it can be considered that this kind of thing was done by the same murderer, but the one who killed the monk and Bao Zheng was obviously not a person, which is really strange.

Could it be that the murderer who killed the monk and the person who wanted to kill Bao Zheng were in the same group, so the one who wanted to kill Bao Zheng was able to make Hui Yuan's body disappear without a trace?

If so, things are a bit tricky.

Because Hua Lang had to figure out where the murderer hid the body, who the murderer was, and who the person who wanted to kill Bao Zheng was.

If these monks didn't kill Bao Zheng, then in the entire Seven Star Temple, the only people who could kill people were Murong Qing and that couple.

After reading all the papers, Bao Zheng and Hua Lang hurried to the pilgrim's courtyard, which was very quiet at this time, and the autumn breeze was cold.

Murong Qing stood in front of his house and looked at a bare tree in the courtyard, as if he also suddenly had the feelings of a poet, and wanted to express his sad feelings.

But he didn't express his sad feelings, when he saw Bao Zheng and Hua Lang and others coming, he suddenly smiled: "Lord Bao has nothing to do, but it is really a blessing for the people of Duanzhou." ”

Bao Zheng didn't say anything, Hua Lang sneered: "I'm afraid it's not your Murong Qing's blessing!" ”

Murong Qing was a little surprised, and said, "Why did the playboy say that, isn't my Murong Qing a native of Duanzhou?" ”

Hua Lang smiled slightly: "Isn't it what, is it the people of Duanzhou, can't it be a murderer?" ”

Murong Qing was even more frightened, and said again and again: "What do you mean by this dude, what murderer?" ”

At this time, Gongsun Ce took a step forward and said: "We have investigated clearly, after the fire broke out, before Lord Bao was assassinated, all the monks were fighting the fire, so in the entire Seven Star Temple, the only ones who have the opportunity to assassinate Lord Bao are you Murong Qing and that couple, now what else do you have to say?" ”

Murong Qing's mouth was very big, but he quickly closed it again, and then smiled slightly: "It is also possible that the murderer is that couple, I have lived here for a few days, but it can be seen that the number of times they are very small, they are also in their own rooms when they eat, could it be that Lord Bao and the playboy, of course, and Mr. Gongsun, have not been suspicious of the two of them?" ”

As soon as Murong Qing said this, Bao Zheng and Hua Lang thought about it carefully, this is really the case, except for the couple that Bao Zheng and they saw when Huiyuan disappeared, the two of them were in the room at other times, could it be that there was really a murderer among the two of them?

But the injury on that woman's foot can't be fake!

Hua Lang thought for a moment and said, "Murong Gongzi is really good at arguing, but I think the two of them are just ordinary husband and wife, so you are still very suspicious." ”

Murong Qing shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's okay, if the playboy really suspects me, I will let you investigate it well, anyway, I believe that the playboy can't wronged a good person, and I am a good person." ”

A group of officials guarded the pilgrim's courtyard, Bao Zheng and Hua Lang and others entered the couple's room, Bao Zheng and others arrived to surprise the two of them, the woman was sitting on the bed at this time, no shoes on her feet, but the injury has improved.

When they came in, Bao Zheng and Hua Lang obviously noticed the nervousness on the couple's faces and the shaking of their eyes, so at this time, Bao Zheng looked at the two of them and asked, "What is the purpose of the two of you coming to the Seven Star Temple?" ”

This question was reprimanded with three points of anger, which frightened the couple, and the man suddenly returned to Bao Zheng and said: "Lord Bao spare my life, everything is because of me, and it has nothing to do with Xiang'er, please let Xiang'er go." ”

At this time, Bao Zheng and Hua Lang learned that the woman with the injury on her foot was called Xiang'er.

As soon as the man said this, Xiang'er suddenly knelt down from the bed and said, "Don't blame Brother Chong, I want to elope with him, please don't blame him, I ...... I ......"

Xiang'er's words couldn't go on, because it was too difficult to speak, but at this time, Bao Zheng and Hua Lang seemed to have fallen from the clouds to the ground, they thought that the people who wanted to kill Bao Zheng were these two people, but they didn't expect that these two people were just a couple of men and women who secretly eloped without telling their parents, and there was nothing to do with Bao Zheng being assassinated.

Everything was like a farce.
