"What's the specific situation, Fourth Brother?"
Zhang Chuyi followed Xu Si and Ren Fei to the roadside and asked curiously.
"A group of people came into Lingyin Temple last night, knocked out the monks who were keeping watch, and turned the Sutra Pavilion upside down."
Xu Si said with a smile but not a smile: "Logically speaking, this kind of matter should be handled by Lingyin Temple itself, but the company is now committed to improving its reputation in the alien world, so it is still willing to provide these famous sects with services." Some help in any way possible.”
"Does the company still care about this?" Zhang Chuyi looked suspicious.
"Anyway, this was Director Zhao's order." Xu Si smiled and said, "If Abbot Jiekong's martial arts had not been abolished, Xiaoxiao would not need the company to come forward.
But now, Abbot Jiekong has lost all his martial arts skills, and his eldest disciple Baowen happened to be out again. Everyone else in the temple has average abilities, so Abbot Jiekong went to Vajra Temple for help.
However, Director Zhao was worried and asked us to stay here for a few nights to see if there was anything we could do to help. "
"So that's it." Zhang Chuyi nodded, and then said doubtfully: "That's not right. Didn't you say that a case happened in the city? Lingyin Temple is outside the city."
"I didn't say there was only one case." Xu Si spread his hands innocently, "The case in the city is related to the Vajra Temple I just mentioned. Originally, Old Dou had been keeping an eye on it, but it seems that the situation has become serious recently, and we happened to be in Here, Director Zhao asked the three of us to go to the Vajra Temple to help."
Zhang Chuyi smiled helplessly: "Why do you feel like we have become firefighters?"
"Isn't that what the company is like?" Ren Fei took off the necklace from her hand, "You can get through to everything. If you have any trouble, you have to go to get through. No matter if you are on vacation or not, if there is any problem, you will get there immediately."
In this way, after the three people came down the mountain, they immediately drove back to the city.
Although it is said to be an urban area, it is actually not far from the suburbs and is at the junction of the two.
However, urban and suburban development compensation are two different concepts, so anyone who has anything to do with urban areas will not say that they are in the suburbs and no one will recognize them.
Most of the houses here are old, and the mottled gray and yellow in the field of view is the main color, giving people the texture of a faded old photo.
Although it is far less prosperous than the vibrant urban area, after passing through several tile-roofed houses with swallow's nests, you can see the magnificent Vajra Temple.
Although Zhang Chuyi has never entered Lingyin Temple, but just looking at the facade with three entrances and three exits, he feels that the area of Jinguang Temple is at least twice that of Lingyin Temple!
"What a magnificent Buddhist temple. I have never heard of such a big temple here." Ren Fei looked up at the ocher red door in front of her and said doubtfully.
"King Kong Temple is a Buddhist temple that was built only fifteen years ago. It is said to be a Sino-foreign joint venture, so it is very large." Xu Si looked down at Baidu Encyclopedia and explained: "King Kong Temple used to be just an unknown small temple. , there were only five or six monks in the temple.
Later, due to the investment of several wealthy people, the Jingang Temple was replaced by a cannon, and it became the most luxurious Buddhist temple within a hundred miles, second only to Lingyin Temple in Feilai Peak in terms of popularity.
The Zhengjue abbot of the Vajra Temple has several years of experience studying abroad. He is not only a highly intelligent returnee, but also a profound master of Buddhism. It is under his leadership that the Vajra Temple has achieved its current size and scope. fame. "
After talking about the introduction to the temple, Xu Si couldn't help but sigh: "Sure enough, it's different if you have a high academic level. You can live a prosperous life as a monk."
As he said that, he grabbed the copper door knocker and knocked on the door.
After waiting for a while, the door opened a gap with a dull whine, and a Zhike monk wearing gray monk robes came out, clasped his hands and said: "Amitabha, today the Vajra Temple is closed and the incense will be suspended. All donors, please come back. "
"We have access to everywhere." Xu Si took out his employee ID card and said, "I received an order to come and investigate the disappearance of the disciples of the Vajra Temple."
"It turns out that he is a distinguished guest of the company." Zhike Monk quickly made way for us: "Please come in quickly, the abbot has been waiting for you for a long time."
The three of them filed in and followed Zhike Monk into the side courtyard.
In the meditation hall, Dou Le was talking to a monk wearing luxurious cassocks.
This monk looks to be about forty years old, with a kind-hearted look and a hint of sadness between his brows.
"Old Dou!" Xu Sigong greeted him cheerfully as soon as he stepped into the meditation hall.
"Xiao Xu, Xiao Fei." Dou Le looked happy when he saw the person coming. He stood up and said, "You two came at the right time. I was just chatting with Abbot Zhengjue about you."
"Amitabha." Zhengjue stood up and saluted, "The poor monk, whose name is Zhengjue, has met two donors."
"Abbot Zhengjue, you are too polite." Xu Si said with a smile, "We are here to solve the problem this time, and we will definitely get to the bottom of it for your temple."
"Then I'll leave it to you. I'll arrange for Xiangji Kitchen to prepare fast meals for you." Zhengjue nodded and lowered his eyebrows, then turned around and left.
When only his own people from the company were left in the meditation hall, Xu Si walked to Dou Le and said, "Old Dou, what's the specific situation?"
"A total of five disciples have disappeared in three days." Dou Le took a puff of cigarette and said in a deep voice: "Two of the disciples are strangers, and their martial arts are not low. They can make these five people disappear quietly. , The person who did it is quite capable."
"I just came from Lingyin Temple, and something happened there. The Buddhist Scripture Pavilion was demolished." Xu Si pulled a futon and sat down, and said expressionlessly: "Tell me, will this happen?" Was it done by a force? The purpose was to take revenge on Buddhism."
"I haven't heard of any enmity between Buddhism and anyone recently." Dou Le took a deep breath with a sad look on his face and exhaled a cloud of thick smoke like a sigh.
"Then send more people to keep an eye on the area. It will definitely happen again." Ren Fei leaned against the door, gently raised her hand, and waved away the second-hand smoke that floated in front of her.
"This is the only way." Dou Le threw the cigarette butt to the ground, stepped on it with his pointed leather shoes and crushed it, then put his hands in his pockets and said: "I feel that this case is not simple, it is probably an attack on Buddhism.
If the situation continues to deteriorate, Shaolin Temple must be notified. "
At this point, the Zen Hall fell into silence.
The three persons in charge were talking, and Zhang Chuyi, as the assistant to the person in charge, had no role to interrupt.
Mainly, there are no clues in the two cases this time, and I don’t know where to start the analysis.
So after the exchange of the only useful information, Xu Si could only take Zhang Chuyi to ask other monks in the temple.
Ren Fei is responsible for arranging visits to the surrounding areas of the Vajra Temple and arranging the following employees.
Dou Le found a room and prepared to summarize the information he had obtained so far to see if he could find any clues.
