442 Question and answer (3)

Just then, a servant brought a horse from the back door and waited outside. Xu Qi ‘an immediately left.

When he arrived at the third Poplar station again, the sun was already setting in the West, and the evening sun was a magnificent golden-red color.

“You …”

The two monks who were guarding the door knew that they had been cheated of their feelings. They stared at Xu Qi ‘an with an unfriendly look.

“I am Xu Qi ‘an, the organizer of the Sang Bo case. Master du’ e summoned me. Please lead the way.” Xu Qi ‘an handed over the reins with a smile.

The two monks guarding the door took a deep breath and suppressed their anger. One took the reins and the other made a “please” gesture.

He followed the gatekeeper monk into the courier station and arrived at the inner courtyard.

It seemed like a fight had just happened here … Hengyuan was also working here … I’m sorry, I’ll definitely be a good person in the future.

He lowered his head guiltily and did not look at Hengyuan. Under the guidance of the monk, he entered a room.

There were three monks in the room. The one in the middle was sitting on a couch. He was an old monk with dark skin and a wrinkled face. His thin body couldn’t support his loose Kasaya, which looked a little funny at first glance.

On the left and right were Jing Chen and Jing si, whom he had met before.

Jing Chen stared at Xu Qi ‘an with an unfriendly look.

“Grandmaster du ‘E!” Xu Qi ‘an put his hands together and bowed.

“Lord Xu, why did you pretend to be the warrior monk of the Azure Dragon Temple, Heng Yuan?” the old monk returned the greeting and asked gently.

Xu Qi ‘an replied seriously, “”I want to find out what’s sealed under sang Bo.”

The old monk squinted his eyes and looked at him silently. His calm and gentle gaze was like a human scanner.

In front of the old monk, Xu Qi ‘an did not dare to have any internal drama. He gathered his scattered thoughts and did not allow himself to let his imagination run wild.

“The Sang Bo case was investigated by me, and I found many secrets. The temple of Yongzhen mountain and river was built on a large array, and evil things were sealed in the array. After the temple of Yongzhen mountain and river was destroyed and the evil beings were freed, I went into the water to investigate and found that the remaining stone pillars of the formation were engraved with Buddhist characters.

“In the beginning, I thought that the one sealed under sang Bo was the previous supervisor, but as the case progressed and Heng Hui appeared, it turned out that it was a broken hand sealed under sang Bo.

“From this, I speculate that the broken hand is related to Buddhism. But no matter if it was the supervisor or the imperial family, they kept it a secret.

“I, Xu Qi ‘an, have solved many big cases in the capital, and there is no case that I can’t solve. But this question was like a lump in my throat, causing me to be unable to sleep or eat all night.”

“That’s why you tested me before?” master du ‘e nodded slowly.

“It is!” Xu Qi ‘an said.

He had already thought of this excuse when he was impersonating Hengyuan. He would pretend to be a ‘lunatic’ who was persistent in solving the case and was still brooding over the origin of the broken hand and the secret behind it.

Therefore, after the Western Region’s diplomatic mission entered the capital, he pretended to be Hengyuan and came here to test the waters.

There was nothing wrong with his test. All the questions were pointed out and he did not reveal any information about monk Shen Shu. He fully played the role of the organizer who only knew a part of it and not the rest.

“Lord Xu, do you want to know more about the evil beings?” master du ‘e asked with a smile.

Xu Qi ‘an was delighted and revealed his desire for knowledge.”Is Grandmaster willing to tell me?”

“That’s not impossible, but you have to join Buddhism and become my disciple,” the skinny old monk said with a smile.

Get lost … Xu Qi ‘an’s face twitched. He shook his head and refused, “”I’m cultivating martial arts, so I can’t cultivate Buddhist heart techniques anymore.”

Master du ‘e seemed to have expected such a reply, he said slowly, “”I can become a monk.”

He could become a monk … Monks and Warriors really have the same goal. My guess was right. The monk system in Buddhism is prepared for the “outer disciples.”

A guess that Xu Qi ‘an had been suppressing for a long time was finally confirmed.

Then what was the next level after the eighth level monk?

“Can you get married and have children?” He asked.

“Although monks don’t need to follow the precepts, they can’t get married and have children. This has nothing to do with cultivation. It’s the rules of Buddhism.” Master du ‘e shook his head, ”

“Once you enter Buddhism, you become a monk, and so are martial monks. Since you’re a monk, how can you start a family?”

Xu Qi. an’s face was full of regret. I’ve always yearned for Buddhism. However. there’s only one son in my family for nine generations. Sigh … It seems that I have no fate with Buddhism, which is a great regret.”

Master du ‘e was a little happy. He didn’t expect Xu Qi’ an to be so friendly to Buddhism.

“Lord Xu, if you have any questions in the future, feel free to come to the relay station and ask. This poor monk will tell you everything that can be said. There’s no need to disguise yourself as a Buddhist disciple.”

“I know I was wrong.”

Du ‘e nodded and ordered Jing si to send them off.

After Jing si sent Xu Qi ‘an off and returned to the room, master du’ e said in a deep voice, “”Summon Hengyuan to the house.”

“Yes!”

Jing Chen went out to call for help.

After a while, Heng Yuan, who was covered in dust, returned with Jing Chen. Master du ‘e smiled and said, “”Pan Shu calls me martial uncle. You are his disciple, so you can call me Grand martial uncle.”

In fact, there was no relationship of seniority between the Buddhist sects of the Western Region and the Azure Dragon Temple. Previously, out of courtesy, jingchen and Xu Qi ‘an addressed each other as senior and junior.

“Senior granduncle.” Hengyuan put his hands together.

“I heard from jingchen that the silver Gong Xu Qi ‘an claimed to be close to you?” master du’ e nodded and asked.

“Yes,” Hengyuan answered.

“The previous misunderstanding was caused by this person. You don’t have any complaints in your heart?” Master du ‘e stared at Hengyuan.

“No matter what Lord Xu does, this disciple can forgive and understand.” Hengyuan said.

He owed number three two lives and Xu Qi ‘an one life. These were all great favors.

“What kind of person is he?” du ‘e nodded again.

………..
