Chapter 439: Abbot
Chapter 439 Abbot.
The abbot's words give the impression that he is a very superstitious person.
Maybe whoever you have been experiencing incredible things for four or five years is not superstitious, and it is impossible.
It's just that after listening to the abbot's words, Hua Lang felt that this matter was a little strange, why did the monk who saw the ghost suddenly disappear later, it stands to reason that he saw the ghost, and he didn't dare to come out in the middle of the night, didn't all the people who disappeared before disappear in the middle of the night?
Could it be that the murderer thought that the monk might have noticed something and killed him.
Thinking like this, Hua Lang looked at the abbot and asked, "How did the monk who saw the white shadow disappear?" ”
The abbot shook his head: "We don't know about this, because that disciple is in a trance and often yells, so I locked him in the firewood room, but suddenly one day, there was no sound in the firewood room, so I took someone to see it, and the door of the firewood room was fine, but the disciple was gone." ”
After hearing this, it made people feel even more incredible, in a closed secret room, how could someone suddenly disappear, Hualang pondered for a moment, and said to the abbot: "Take us to the firewood room to see." ”
The abbot clasped his hands together, then made a gesture of please, and led them from the temple to the back of the firewood room, which was now locked and covered with dust, as if no one had entered it for a long time.
At this time, the abbot explained: "Because my disciple has disappeared here, we feel very ominous, so we sealed the firewood room, and it has not been used for several years. ”
"Where's the key?"
The abbot shook his head: "About a year after sealing this door, the key was lost!" ”
Hearing this, Yin Wuxian sneered: "A broken lock, what key do you want!" As he spoke, Yin Wuxian drew his knife and slashed, and the lock on the door fell to the ground with a snap, and then Yin Wuxian kicked the door open.
After Hua Lang and the others walked in, they saw that the ground and the table inside were covered with thick dust, and the corners of the walls were crawling with cobwebs, after seeing these, Hua Lang asked: "After the monk disappeared, have you ever cleaned here?" ”
The abbot shook his head again and again: "This one has not been cleaned." ”
Hanarang was very satisfied, so he searched the house carefully, and could vaguely detect that there had been people living here for a few days, but other than that, he couldn't see any clues, after all, it had been a few years since this matter, and even if no one had touched the things in the house, it would not be easy to find out something.
And just when Hua Lang was at a loss, he suddenly heard an exclamation, which was Hua Wan'er's exclamation, Hua Lang hurriedly got up and asked a little eagerly, "What's wrong?" ”
Hua Wan'er pointed to the firewood pile beside her and shouted, "Mouse, there are mice!" ”
Girls are afraid of mice, Hua Lang shrugged helplessly, but at this time he also relaxed a lot, but just when he was about to take people away, he found that under the firewood pile where the rats had just hid, there was a button, which was a black button, which should be something on the murderer's night clothes, which was ripped off when he was scuffling with the monk.
Hanaro put the button away and asked the abbot, "Can anyone in your temple wear this button?" ”
After a careful look, the abbot shook his head and said, "No, we monks all wear light-colored clothes, and most of the buttons on the clothes are the same color as the clothes. So said this, and the people looked at the abbot, and found that it was so.
If this is the case, then it can be determined that this button was left by the thief when he killed the monk, and because of this button, the haunted incident of the legend in the Seven Star Temple can finally be clarified.
When he walked out of the firewood room, Hua Lang said: "Since the button is not the monk in your Seven Star Temple, and no outsiders enter the firewood room, then this button must be a thief, so what you say about haunting is just a trick of one person." ”
After listening to Hua Lang's words, the abbot saw the button just now, and immediately became enlightened, and said: "I think so, but who is this murderer, Master Bao Playboy, you must arrest the murderer, otherwise my Seven Star Temple, alas, how to continue." ”
Bao Zheng nodded: "Don't worry about this, we will definitely bring the murderer to justice." ”
It was already noon when he came to the temple again, and the monks here had already inspected the temple and the aisles many times, but still found no trace of Huiyuan or the corpse. ”
Hui Ming hesitated a little and said, "The abbot's room was not searched!" ”
Listening to Huiming's words, Bao Zheng hurriedly looked at the abbot and said, "Master abbot can let me search?" ”
The abbot was sincerely frightened and said, "How can you not let it, please!" ”
The abbot occupies a courtyard alone, but it is not very large, there are only two rooms in total, one is a Buddhist scripture, and the other is a bedroom.
There is a bed in the bedroom, two quilts are neatly stacked, there is a table at the head of the bed, the abbot's tea set on it, and there is a large box opposite the bed, which contains the clothes of the four seasons, as well as some broken wooden fish, in addition, there is nothing else in the whole room, after Hua Lang read it, he smiled lightly: "The abbot master is really bitter!" ”
The abbot put his hands together, and said another sentence of Amitabha, saying: "The monks pay attention to pure cultivation, the wealth and fame in the world are just floating clouds for us, and the poor monks do not have the opportunity to sacrifice their lives to feed the tiger like the Buddha, so they are only accompanied by green lanterns, and Qing Xiu I is the same." ”
There is an allusion to the abbot's words that the Buddha sacrificed his life to feed the tiger, Hua Lang laughed secretly after listening to it, and felt that this abbot was really a pedantic person, and the Buddha gave up his life to feed the tiger to achieve positive results, but you are so pure and cultivated, you are just suffering yourself, but these words can't be said, Hua Lang only forced it in his heart.
After that, Hua Lang and the others had no intention of talking nonsense to the abbot, and they searched the abbot's bedroom carefully, but they found nothing, no place where the body could be hidden, not even anything of value.
Then they went to another room, which was opposite the abbot's bedroom, and there were rows of scriptures in it, and they searched the room inside and out, but as in the bedroom, there was nothing.
When they searched like this, the abbot was reciting Amitabha Buddha Amitabha Buddha on the side, as if someone had touched his scriptures and was a sin.
