Chapter 504: The Murderer

"Amitabha!" Abbot Fulin nodded, put his hands together, and proclaimed the Buddha's name.

Scholar Zhang Yu asked, "So what?" Can you explain anything? ”

"At least it can show that Abbot Fulin cares about his temple very much, and he doesn't want Mrs. Chen to defile the temple, so he may kill someone in a fit of anger."

"This ...... This is outrageous, isn't it? Zhang Shushengyu smiled bitterly.

"Outrageous? Many motives for killing seem outrageous, because murder is inherently deviating from normal people's ethics and moral norms, and the murderer's motives for killing will of course also deviate from moral norms, which is incomprehensible to ordinary people. If this motive is outrageous, then there are many cases that can't be understood, and I've seen a lot of more outrageous motives for killing, and you don't believe it when you say it! ”

"Oh?" Scholar Zhang Yu said: "Then you say two, let's listen." ”

Xiao Yu'er said: "For example, in a case we encountered before, the husband and wife were usually very harmonious, but because his wife didn't like to wash her feet before going to bed, his husband said it many times, but the lady just didn't listen and often quarreled about it." Before going to bed that day, the two quarreled again about this matter, and the husband, in a fit of anger, took a sickle in his hand, cut his wife's neck several times and killed him, and then disguised himself as suicide. ”

Zhang Yu frowned: "Just kill someone without washing your feet?" ”

"Of course!" Xiao Yu'er continued: "There are also two brothers who have an impulse to eat fried noodles, and one of them kills the other? Hehe, so, some motives for killing are simply incredible in the eyes of outsiders, but in the eyes of the murderer, they are enough to trigger his evil thoughts of killing. ”

Shopkeeper Zheng still couldn't help but laugh and said, "Then you mean that the abbot just teased his apprentice for Mrs. Chen, and killed someone if he broke the Buddhist Sect Qingxiu?" ”

Zhang Yu also shook his head and said: "Other motives are possible, but this motive, I don't think it's possible." The abbot became a monk in order to achieve positive results, if he killed Mrs. Chen to maintain the reputation of Buddhism, killing is a violation of the first major precept of Buddhism, then what kind of Buddha does he cultivate, what kind of family does he have? This motive is contradictory to the other, and it doesn't make sense. ”

Shopkeeper Zheng gloated and smiled: "Yes, yes, yes! It is understandable to say that the abbot killed Mrs. Chen for other motives, but it is really unreasonable to say that he killed someone in order to maintain the reputation of Buddhism. ”

Xiao Yu'er said: "I didn't say that the abbot must be killing people for this." ”

Shopkeeper Zheng sneered: "Then why? For the sake of women? For money? ”

Xiao Yu'er said sharply: "I heard clearly, Master Abbot has a motive to kill." He could be a suspect. ”

Everyone knew how powerful Xiao Yu'er was, so they had to shut up.

Abbot Fulin said the Buddha's name: "The poor monk is willing to tell him frankly, and in the past half an hour, the poor monk has been meditating in the meditation room.

"Thank you for your understanding!" Xiao Yu'er gave a salute, "What is the master doing in the past half an hour?" Can anyone prove that you didn't commit the crime? ”

The little monk Huipu hurriedly said, "I can testify for my master!" He meditated in the meditation room at this time of day until the fourth watch. Every day! ”

"And today? Did you see that today? ”

It's a matter of human life, but Huipu doesn't dare to say: "I'...... I've slept, no ...... Didn't see ......."

Abbot Fulin shook his head and said, "The poor monk meditates alone in the meditation room, and no one else is present to testify. ”

Bao Dadao: "That is to say. Master Fulin has no alibi, so he is still classified as a suspect. ”

When scholar Zhang Yu heard this, he couldn't help but shake his head: "My lord." I always feel that it is very inappropriate to list the abbot master as a criminal suspect. ”

Lord Bao smiled and ignored Zhang Yu's stubble, and glanced at the abbot: "There is another thing that Lord Ben is very curious about. You need to ask the master about it. ”

"Master Bao, please say, the poor monk must know everything."

"Who was the pregnant woman who hanged herself in the woods behind your temple? Does it have anything to do with the master? ”

The abbot's face changed slightly. The white eyebrows moved, and he said in a deep voice, "Poor monk...... The poor monk didn't know ...... Just a woman passing by......"

Xiao Yu'er looked at her face and felt that the abbot Fulin was not telling the truth. And Lord Bao smiled slightly and said: "Abbot, if Lord Ben's guess is right, the abbot should have a lot of relationship with this woman." ”

"No...... Monks don't speak! "Fulin Fulin said.

Zhang Yu said: "My lord, what are you doing to pursue this old thing?" Is it related to this case? ”

Xiao Yu'er smiled: "If you want to say it's related, of course it's related." If this old incident is a secret story that the abbot master does not want to be known, or even an unspeakable secret matter, and is accidentally bumped into by Mrs. Chen, hehe, it is difficult to guarantee that the abbot master will not kill people! ”

Zhang Yu was stunned, turned his head to look at Abbot Fulin, only to see that he was still bowing his head, silently reciting the Buddha's name, but the two white eyebrows on his eyes couldn't help but tremble slightly, obviously the abbot's heart was like turning over the river and the sea at the moment, but he didn't know what he was thinking.

Shopkeeper Chen asked, "Master, is what Master Bao said true?" ”

Fulin Fulin still lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "The poor monk and the hanged pregnant woman don't know each other. The adults made a hypothetical......"

Bao Heizi laughed coldly: "Okay, since the abbot master refuses to say it, then put this matter aside for the time being, and take the abbot master as a key suspect, let's continue to investigate." ”

Chen Yun stared at the abbot master and said: "What else to investigate, it must be that my lady inadvertently knew or broke through the ugly thing of this old monk, and was killed by him, my lord, you quickly arrested him!" Under the big punishment, he will definitely recruit! ”

Xiao Yu'er shook her head and said, "This matter is not appropriate, my family does not like to torture to extract confessions." Moreover, the abbot is only a suspect, and there is no evidence to confirm it at present, so the abbot master is only a suspect with a motive for committing the crime and a time to commit the crime. Let's continue to investigate. ”

Xiao Yu'er then asked the little monk Huitong: "Little Master, where are you in these half an hour?" ”

"Me? I just said I'm sleeping......" Huitong's eyes flickered slightly.

Xiao Yu'er glanced him up and down: "Isn't it?" Where did you sleep? ”

"In ...... In my meditation room...... "Huitong is young in the end, and he is a monk, and the monks don't speak, but when he lied, his face suddenly turned red, and he stammered when he spoke."

"Oh?" Xiao Yu'er smiled, "Where is the little master's meditation room?" ”

Huitong pointed to a meditation room on the side of the Daxiong Treasure Hall: "There, next to my master's meditation room......"

The little fish walked over. Pushed open the door and looked inside, and sneered: "Hehe, the quilt on the little master's bed is still neatly folded, doesn't the little master never cover the quilt when he sleeps?" ”

Huitong's face turned pale suddenly, and he said, "I'...... This ......"

Xiao Yu'er turned around suddenly, stared at Huitong and said coldly: "Anyway, how did you kill the little lady?" ”

"No, no...... Not me......! The little monk is a monk, how can he kill! ”

"A monk?" Xiao Yu'er sneered, "Will a monk do something to other people's women?" Will you meet with other women's women in the woods? ”

Huitong sweated on his forehead, bowed his head and trembled: "That's a little monk...... The little monk was confused for a while. But by then it was already sober......"

"That's good!" Xiao Yu'er stepped forward, grabbed Huitong's arm, and forcibly pulled him to the statue of Shakyamuni Buddha in the Daxiong Treasure Hall, and said loudly: "Since you claim that you have been awakened and are still a disciple of Buddhism, then you can't tell lies, now you tell me in front of the Buddha, where have you run for half an hour?" -- Remind you that if you lie, you will go to hell with your tongue plucked out in the future! ”

Smartcom knelt on the futon. Secretly raised his eyes to look at the solemn treasure of the Buddha, couldn't help but shudder, and hurriedly lowered his head.

"Alright, you can say it. Where were you at the time? ”

Abbot Fulin Xuanfo said: "Huitong, tell the truth, don't hide it!" ”

Hui Channel: "Yes, I didn't sleep in the meditation room. I went out. ”

"Where did you go?" Xiao Yu'er asked.

"Go...... Go walk around the yard! ”

"You're lying!" Xiao Yu'er said coldly, "You have been a monk in this ancient temple since you were a child, and you have to clean the temple thoroughly every five days. You know every brick and tile here, tonight is not the 15th Mid-Autumn Festival or the moon and stars, look at you like this there is no elegant bones, see that this day is about to rain, at this time you run to the yard for a walk, isn't there a disease in the head? ”

"I ...... I really went for a walk in the yard. ”

"Hehe, it's right to take a walk, but it's not to see the scenery, but to have another intention, right?"

"I ...... I didn't...... I really don't......"

"And where have you been? What do you see? Who is there to bear witness? ”

"I ...... I see...... I ...... "Under Xiao Yu'er's pressing questioning step by step, the back of Huitong's spine was already in a cold sweat, and he was trembling and didn't know how to answer.

"Humph! You obviously went to spy on Mrs. Chen, and saw that Mrs. Chen went to the toilet alone, trying to do that kind of thing with Mrs. Chen, but Mrs. Chen only deliberately teased and teased you, and did not really want to have an affair with you, you saw that adultery was hopeless, and you were afraid that Mrs. Chen would denounce you, so you strangled her with a poisonous hand, and then hung the body on the beam of the toilet room, disguised as a hanging, and in order to further confuse the public, she deliberately said that the female ghost asked for her life. That's the truth! Right? ”

"No...... I didn't kill Mrs. Chen...... I really didn't kill her! I'm just ...... In her back window thought...... Looking for a chance to talk to her......"

"Isn't it?" Xiao Yu'er sneered, "You weren't actually woken up by your master, you were still thinking about Mrs. Chen's appointment with your woods, so you went to her back window and wanted to ask her out." Right? ”

"I ...... I...... I was confused for a while...... "Huitong is not good at lying, after being told through the thoughts in my heart, I panicked for a while, and I didn't know how to quibble, and I didn't even think of quibbling."

In the past, when Mrs. Chen was still alive, Chen Yun had no temper, but now that Mrs. Chen is dead, he is also bold, and after hearing Huitong's words, he couldn't bear it anymore, Tie Qing stepped forward with a blue face, and kicked Huitong who was kneeling on the futon down: "You bald donkey!" Dare to beat my mother's idea, or what kind of monk, it's really better than a pig and a dog! ”

This kick hit Huitong's nose and mouth, and his lips were also broken, and blood suddenly flowed out, and he sat crookedly next to the futon, unable to speak. (To be continued......)
