Chapter 80 Something Big Has Happened!(1/2)
Chen Mu's words were indeed like a bomb, falling into everyone's mood, causing huge waves.
A murderer hiding in a temple?
If this is true, the reputation accumulated by Hanwu Temple over the past century will be ruined.
Even Hengjue, who was jealous of Chen Mu, was frightened.
"Nonsense!"
The first person to speak out was the law enforcement elder.
He stared at him like a bronze bell and said loudly: "How can I hide the murderer in Hanwu Temple? Captain Chen, don't swear at others!"
Xue Caiqing frowned slightly and looked at Chen Mu: "What did you find?"
Chen Mu looked at the silent abbot Wuhui and said lightly: "Master Wuhui, I went to the back mountain to investigate the case, so I was misunderstood by Yuanru. Do you believe it?"
"Captain Chen can explain in detail?" Wuhui's voice was still gentle.
"Of course I will explain in detail, but I don't understand one thing." Chen Mu sneered on the corner of his lips, "This monk Hengjue is causing trouble for me because of a woman, but the master has no intention of punishing him. Why?"
The law enforcement elder frowned and said, "Since Captain Chen has punished him, why bother to be aggressive?"
"I just returned him a stick. If I really wanted to punish him, that stick would fall directly on his head."
"this……"
The law enforcement elder couldn't help but speak.
What he saw was indeed the case at that time, Chen Mu deliberately showed mercy and did not take any ruthless actions.
"Don't force people too much!"
Heng Jue stared at Chen Mu coldly, his eyes full of resentment, "Do you want to punish me, right? OK, I'll stand still now, you can beat you, until you Captain Chen vents anger! So what if you beat me to death!"
"Hengjue!"
Seeing that his disciples had no regrets at all, the law enforcement elder became increasingly disappointed with him.
Is it as for a woman?
For some reason, he complained about Xue Caiqing.
If it weren't for her appearance, Hengjue would have had a good practice in Buddhism, and might not have reached the level of his junior brother's perseverance, but it would not be bad either.
Just in line with that sentence, women are like disasters.
"Amitabha……"
Abbot Wuhui whispered the Buddha's name and said slowly: "What Captain Chen said is very true. If he violates the temple rules, he will be punished, but this donor is no longer a disciple of my Hanwu Temple, so... I have no right to punish him."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked different.
Hengjue's expression was dull.
There was no blood on his face.
After reacting, he rolled and crawled to the abbot and cried and begged: "Abbot, I'm wrong! Please don't drive me away! I'm wrong!"
At this moment, he really regretted it.
Regret to the extreme.
This childish act was made for a temporary jealousy, not only did not vent his anger for himself, but was driven out of the temple.
If he had known this, he would never have been stupid!
"Senior brother..."
The law enforcement elder couldn't bear it and wanted to speak out, but when he saw the disappointment in the abbot's eyes, he swallowed the words of love back.
There is nothing to do.
Hengjue is purely self-inflicted.
Moreover, judging from the temperament you show at present, it is indeed not suitable for practicing in Buddhism, and it may cause more disasters in the future.
Thinking of this, he asked the little novice monk to call two monks to drag Heng Jue out of the house, crying and regretful.
Chen Mu really didn't expect that Abbot Wuhui was so decisive and ruthless.
After figuring out the joints, he couldn't help but give the other person a thumbs up in his heart: He is a cruel person, no wonder he can become the abbot!
"Captain Chen can now explain in detail?"
Wuhui asked the way.
Judging from his calm and friendly expression, it seems that nothing happened just now.
Chen Mu nodded: "Today, a corpse floating from the water was found on the side of East Street near Huailan River. Do you know?"
"Corpsy?"
The elder of the Dharma Protector showed doubts.
Wuhui shook his head gently: "I don't know."
"Miss Xue knows, let her tell you first." Chen Mu said.
Xue Caiqing was still thinking about what Chen Mu found out. When she heard Chen Mu ask her to speak, she hesitated for a while but did not refuse.
So I roughly stated what I encountered on the road.
After listening to Xue Caiqing's story, Master Wuhui chanted the Buddha's name and said with a smile: "Saving a life is better than building a seven-level Buddhist Tu. Captain Chen saved the girl's life, which is also a blessing to him."
"Let's not talk about saving people, let's talk about who almost killed her."
Chen Mu took out the pure soul fruit he picked before, "Only your temple has this fruit, right?"
Master Wuhui nodded: "That's right."
"The girl dyed the pigment of the fruit on her hands, and the flesh in her mouth was exactly the same, which means she was on the back mountain of your Hanwu Temple at that time..."
While expressing his speculation, Chen Mu took out the pearl earring and shook it in front of everyone's eyes. "So I went to the back mountain to investigate, and indeed found a tree hole, and found the earring inside."
The people present looked at each other.
Xue Caiqing's bright and dazzling eyes shone brightly, and the eyes looking at Chen Mu were particularly complicated.
This guy is really surprised everywhere.
The law enforcement elder frowned: "So according to your speculation, Miss Lu accidentally fell off the cliff behind the mountain because she was frightened by someone?"
"I'm afraid someone here is the monk from your temple!"
Chen Mu's eyes were cold, "Maybe it was because the early-fighting monk who had a bad idea and wanted to bully the girl, so a tragedy happened."
"Don't talk nonsense!"
The law enforcement elder shouted, "How could my monk from Hanwu Temple do such a thing!"
"If monks are all people with noble character, why would they still be jealous and deliberately seek fault because of a woman?"
Chen Mu smiled and said.
"you--"
The law enforcement elder was speechless.
He waved his sleeves and said coldly: "I believe what you said before, but maybe it's someone else. After all, there are many thieves who have come to steal fruits over the years. Perhaps it's because of coincidence that the thief saw the girl, a tragedy happened."
"Yes, there is this possibility, so I need to investigate."
“How to investigate?”
"It's very simple. Call the monk who was working in the back mountain today and ask in person." Chen Mu said.
The law enforcement elder sneered and pointed at the dazed Yuanru:
"There is only one serving monk who takes turns to shift every day in the back mountain, and today the person who is in charge is Yuan Ru. You can investigate him now! Check if he is the murderer!"
"he?"
Hearing this, Chen Mu frowned.
If the monks on duty today are Yuanru, it would be really hard to deal with. All the monks can only be gathered together to check them one by one.
"It seems that Captain Chen is just making random guesses!"
Seeing that Chen Mu didn't speak, the law enforcement elder finally made some face back and smiled. "In the future, please call Chief Chen to be careful in his words and not slander monks at will. You must understand that people's words are fearful-"
However, at this moment, Yuan Ru scratched her head and said quietly: "Elder, today is not my duty."
Well……
The smile on the law enforcement elder's face froze.
He was stunned for two or three seconds, and quickly walked to Yuan Ru and asked sternly: "What did you say? Today is not your duty, so why are you working in the back mountain!"
"I...I..."
Yuan Ru was frightened by the law enforcement elder and stuttered, "It's Junior Brother Yuanyu's duty, but he ate in the morning... and suffered a stomachache, so... that's why I helped him."
The law enforcement elder stayed in place, as if struck by lightning.
To be continued...
