(Ten thousand rewards will be added)
In the Temple of Fire.
Just as Ji Wu walked out of the room, he heard the noise coming from outside.
A monk quickly walked into the courtyard and reported to Diwu: "Master, there was a murder case on Fenghuo Street. A girl committed suicide by jumping into the river."
Diwu was used to seeing separation between life and death, so he wasn't too surprised. He clasped his hands together and said, "Hey~ let's go and pray for that girl."
"But host, this girl committed suicide because she couldn't think about it after being insulted.
The person who insulted him has been caught by the monks and brought to the temple, waiting for you to deal with him. "
Diwu was slightly startled and said with a serious expression: "There is still such a thing, let's go."
After saying that, he immediately followed the monk.
Almost most of the Fire Country has guards arranged by the Daming Mansion to manage order.
If there is an adulterer, the guards will uniformly escort him to the city guard house in a nearby large town for trial.
The Fire Temple belongs to the Ninja Temple and has a certain amount of military power.
And a large area of land, including Fenghuo Street, belongs to the Temple of Fire.
Therefore, there are no guards stationed here, and all security issues are taken care of by the monks of the Fire Temple.
Whatever happens, the Fire Temple even has priority to deal with it.
Of course, the Fire Temple generally does not exercise its power of disposal, but will send those who commit crimes to the nearby Wei Mansion.
Soon, Diwu came to the square in front of the main hall.
I saw two monks escorting a young man who was in a terrible state.
The young man's hair was messy, his clothes were not neatly dressed, and his face was lifeless.
And that young man, Ji Wu had also seen it, was Usagi Maru.
The body of Naoko Nohara was placed on the ground nearby.
Due to being soaked in water, the body had become somewhat rotten and turned white. Nohara Naoko's face was bloodless and even a little blue.
Nohara Naoko was seen clutching the windbreaker wrapped around her body with both hands until she died.
Nohara Naoko's grandmother was lying on Nohara Naoko's body, sobbing uncontrollably.
Seeing this, Jiwu clasped his hands and prayed for Nohara Naoko in his heart.
Then he asked in a deep voice: "What exactly happened."
A monk handed Nohara Naoko’s will to Chigo:
"This is the will the little girl left before she committed suicide.
It explained how she was humiliated yesterday and how she apologized to her grandmother.
There should be a lot of content behind the will, but it has all been obliterated. "
Jiwu looked at the contents of the will, and suddenly his eyes were startled. He looked at Usagi Maru who was kneeling on the ground and said:
"Do you have anything to explain?"
Usagi Maru had lost his sense of control at this moment and trembled: "No..."
He had indeed done those things, and no matter how much he tried to defend himself, it would be of no use.
Behind him, a group of residents from Fenghuo Street who came after hearing the news said with indignation:
"Host, this boy has confessed his crime."
"kill him!"
"kill him!"
...
Usagi Maru was immediately frightened to the point where his two legs trembled, and he kept kowtowing to Jiwu:
"Host, I admit that I did those things, but it's not me who killed her, so I don't deserve to die either."
Usagi Maru became even more panicked due to the anger of many people.
One resident shouted angrily: "Beast! You have committed such a crime that even ten thousand deaths are not enough."
Diwu frowned slightly, sighed and said:
"According to the laws of the Fire Nation, he does not deserve to die.
After all, he didn't kill anyone. "
As soon as the words fell, everyone looked at each other.
After all, Diwu has spoken. Although everyone is unhappy, they still have to act according to the rules.
At this moment, Uchiha Tunan walked in from outside the gate of Fire Temple and said loudly:
"Master Diwu, sins have causes and karma has consequences.
I think this man should pay with his life. "
Jiwu looked up at Uchiha Tunan who was coming towards him, and said in a deep voice: "Tunan, but this is the rule."
Uchiha Tunan shook his head and said: "Although he didn't do it himself, the cause and effect of the matter started with him.
It's like, I'm throwing a stone from a mountain.
The stone met another stone halfway.
This second stone fell down the mountain and killed the passerby.
Is this my fault? "
After hearing this, Diwu thought for a while and affirmed: "It's your fault."
Uchiha Tunan said nonsense: "But the stone I threw didn't hit anyone.
I am throwing stones at others, what does it have to do with me. "
Everyone was silent for a while after hearing this, and then the residents shouted:
"kill him."
"kill him."
...
Usagi Maru was completely panicked at this moment. He thought he could escape, but unexpectedly, Uchiha Tunan came out halfway.
He immediately panicked and said:
"You can't blame me, I didn't want to do it at first.
It was the host, he gave me those medicines.
If he hadn't given me the medicine, I wouldn't have given it to Naoko.
Naoko wouldn't be in a coma, and I wouldn't have those thoughts.
Nothing will happen next.
The host also has a responsibility, so you can’t blame me entirely.
As you just said, I am the second stone, and the host is the first stone. "
After everyone heard this, they all stopped talking.
Uchiha Tunan took a deep breath and said with a look of self-blame:
“So that’s it.
If I hadn’t delivered medicine to Master Diwu.
Master Diwu will not give you medicine just because he misjudged the person.
I didn't kill Boren, but Boren died because of me.
I am guilty..."
Although Di Wu didn't know who Bo Ren was, he still understood the meaning.
He sighed deeply and said, "Tunan, this matter has nothing to do with you.
The main reason is that I misjudged the person. "
Nohara Naoko's grandmother didn't understand what the people were saying at all.
I just heard that Usagi’s medicine was given by Jiwu.
He immediately wailed: "Why did you give the medicine to him? You gave it back to my granddaughter."
A trace of unbearability flashed in Diwu's eyes: "I..."
Although there was a factor in this matter that Diwu sent medicine, everyone was not a fool.
It is impossible to blame Jiwu for this.
What's more, Jiwu is the abbot of the Fire Temple after all.
Everyone subconsciously believes that he saves all sentient beings and is a highly respected monk.
I didn't think anything bad of him.
Diwu clasped his hands and recited the sutra silently for a while, then slowly opened his eyes and ordered:
"Let's lock this man up in the Fire Temple first. In a few days, he will be sent to the Wei Mansion in Matsumoto Town, where he will be tried and imprisoned."
When Usagi Maru heard this, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, with a look of relief on his face.
The monk beside him nodded, lifted Usagi Maru up, and walked towards the back of the Fire Temple.
Jiwu sighed and said to Uchiha Tunan:
"Tunan, after thinking about what you just said, I realized that it does have a cause and effect with you and me.
As you said, everything depends on moderation.
Even if you and I are guilty, it is all out of good intentions and the sin is not serious. "
Uchiha Tunan realized that he might have misjudged Jiwu a little.
Although he is a monk, he seems to care more about Buddhist theory and how to preach the doctrine.
Perhaps he is kinder than ordinary people, but because he is a monk, his attitude towards sin is more tolerant than ordinary people.
It seems that we need to add more fire.
