The road from Qianlu Town to Jinling is not easy, but it is much faster by plane.
Zen monk Miaohua returned to Hanshan Temple in Jinling early.
The first time she returned to the temple, Miaohua hurried to see Abbot Yansong.
Abbot Yansong is the oldest monk in Hanshan Temple. He was a contemporary of the deceased Heavenly Master Zhang Yin, but he did not seem to be as energetic as the late Heavenly Master Zhang Yin was when he was alive.
In front of the huge Buddha statue, Abbot Yansong sat cross-legged, holding a cane carved from a wooden stick in his hand. He could barely support his body by relying on this cane.
Time has left too many traces on Abbot Yansong's face. When he closed his eyes and remained motionless, he almost blended in with the surrounding nature, like a quiet old pine tree.
Miaohua quickly walked into the hall with three monk disciples and knelt down in front of Abbot Yansong.
"Abbott, Miaohua is back."
Abbot Yansong was not Miaohua's master. Miaohua's master was Zen Master Benheng, the great elder of Hanshan Temple, and Zen Master Benheng even called Abbot Yansong his uncle.
As for Zen Master Benheng’s seniority, all of them have gone to see the Buddha.
Abbot Yansong seemed not to have heard what Miaohua said and had no reaction at all.
At this time, Miaohua's master, Zen Master Benheng, appeared outside the hall with a broom. When he saw Miaohua and others coming back, he put down the broom and walked into the hall, standing next to Abbot Yansong.
"Continue to report, the abbot is listening." Zen Master Ben Heng said calmly.
Miaohua nodded and continued to report: "The disciple was ordered to trace the whereabouts of Abbot Shiming's evil Buddha. The clues finally led to the Side Temple in Qianlu Town, Huizhou. It's just that we arrived a step too late and the evil Buddha has been taken away by others."
Zen Master Benheng frowned and asked: "The evil Buddha contains huge evil thoughts. If the person who gets it is not strong enough or mentally determined enough, he will definitely be controlled by the evil Buddha. Who has the ability to take away the evil Buddha?" "
Zen Master Benheng is more concerned about whether that person is controlled by the evil Buddha.
Once the evil Buddha finds a new host, he may start harming another party again.
Miaohua replied: "My disciple asked Abbot Haixin of Side Temple and got some information. He knew that the other party was heading north, and Chang Ji and the others were sent to look for him along the way."
"Then why did you come back?" Zen Master Benheng was puzzled.
"After the man took away the evil Buddha, he didn't seem to be controlled by the evil Buddha. The disciple was worried that the man was very powerful, so he planned to come back and call a few helpers, and then patrol from north to south, chasing Chang Ji and others."
"Well, you are quite careless."
Benheng answered on behalf of Abbot Yansong, and after asking a few more questions, asked Miaohua to withdraw.
After Miaohua left, Zen Master Benheng planned to continue cleaning the courtyard gate, but was stopped by Abbot Yansong, who had been silent.
"Benheng, Miaohua's karma has become heavier again."
It turned out that Abbot Yansong had been awake all along, and he could tell at a glance that Miaohua had committed another murder when he went out this time.
Zen Master Benheng hesitated for a moment and asked, "Miaohua is devoted to the Buddha, but her thoughts are a little extreme. I hope my uncle can forgive me."
"It's useless for me to forgive him. You have to ask Buddha whether he forgives him or Bodhisattva whether he forgives him."
"You always knew that Miaohua was committing murder, why did you never discipline him?" Ben Heng was puzzled.
"Cause and effect are determined by themselves. You also said that Miaohua is devoted to the Buddha. Since he is devoted to the Buddha, what reason does Laoji have to discipline him?" Abbot Yansong said in a low voice, "In the hearts of ten thousand people, there are ten thousand statues. Buddha. When dealing with Miaohua, we can only admonish but cannot discipline it. You have to put more thought into Benheng and teach Miaohua."
Zen Master Benheng sighed: "Uncle Master, maybe I am not suitable to teach disciples? Miaoji betrayed the master, Miaohua was involved in murder, Miaoyou was trapped by love, and even Changshan, who was favored by you, went astray .”
Abbot Yansong was silent for a while: "...Then let Miaoyou enlighten Miaohua."
Zen Master Benheng remained silent longer than Abbot Yansong.
Co-author...Uncle Master, you also suspect that it is my problem? ? ?
Zen Master Benheng’s high blood pressure has increased by several points.
…
The second thing Miaohua did when he returned to Hanshan Temple was to call his youngest disciple, the novice monk, and ask him to go check on Chang Shan's situation.
Because Chang Shan had a good relationship with Yan Shouyi, and after the relationship between the two factions deteriorated, Chang Shan often clamored to go down the mountain to find Yan Shouyi, so Zen Master Benheng put Chang Shan into confinement.
Miaohua didn't know the purpose of Yan Shouyi's trip to Jinling. He was worried that it had something to do with Chang Shan, so he sent a young novice to test Chang Shan.
After sending out the novice monk, Miaohua met a few more people.
Yonglu from Dongzen Temple, Jieying Mirror and Jiexuan from Yongryu Temple.
The three of them are all masters of Buddhism in the Jinling area. Together with Miaohua himself and his disciples, Miaohua thinks he is enough to deal with Yan Shouyi.
Yong Lin, Jie Jing and Jie Xuan were all members who firmly opposed the folk sect. When they learned from Miao Hua that he had the whereabouts of Yan Shou Yi, the three of them were extremely excited!
They have a good relationship with Miaohua, and since they have interests now, they will definitely keep this matter secret.
Of course, when the time comes to deal with Yan Shouyi, the three of them will have no reservations!
"Brother Miaohua, you said that Chang Ji is following Yan Shouyi. Where is Yan Shouyi now?" Yong Lin couldn't help but ask.
Miaohua sneered and took out her cell phone to contact Chang Ji.
Soon, he got a reply: The truck Yan Shouyi was traveling in had entered the Jinling area!
Enter Jinling!
Jinling is the territory of Hanshan Temple, and Hanshan Temple's spies are everywhere here. It can be said that from the moment Yan Shouyi entered Jinling, he had nowhere to hide!
Miaohua put down her phone and whispered: "This time, Yan Shouyi will definitely be punished!"
…
"Sir, your takeaway!"
A delivery boy brought hot Malatang, and Yan Shouyi and Brother Yang ate it in just a few bites next to the truck.
After finishing lunch, Yan Shou wiped his mouth and said to Brother Yang:
"I'm going into Jinling to pick up a few people. Brother Yang, please drive to the Jinling North Expressway and wait for me... Remember, if you see the monk approaching, drive away without saying a word. You don't have to wait for me."
"Monk, are you bald like me?" Brother Yang asked, pointing to his shiny forehead.
Brother Yang later realized that he had shaved his head after leaving Side Temple for a long time. Yan Shouyi lied that it was the hair that he had been clamoring to shave after Brother Yang fell into coma, and Brother Yang did not doubt it.
Yan Shouyi smiled: "Not necessarily, just stay away if you see a nun."
Brother Yang hesitated for a while and asked: "Could the gang you provoked be the Shaolin Temple?"
Yan Shouyi: "..."
Without explanation, Yan Shou put on a coat, hailed a taxi on the side of the road, and left.
Not long after, Chang Ji followed in a car.
Chang Ji, who was sitting in the car, was extremely curious: Yan Shouyi saw that his purpose was clear, where was he going?
