Li Tai walked into the temple with a cold expression surrounded by his personal soldiers. Lan
The monks in the temple finally waited for his arrival and rushed forward to complain or beg, hoping that he could preside over justice for Guangming Temple, arrest the robbers who committed crimes, and recover the losses in the temple.
Li Tai was too lazy to deal with them, but asked in a deep voice: “Where is Master Tanjing now? Why don’t you come to see me?”
The monks did not dare to neglect after hearing this, and directly led Li Tai into Master Tanjing’s room. After a night of frightened and hard work, the mage looked very depressed, but after learning that Li Tai was coming, he hurriedly ordered the little novice monk to help him up and pay homage to Li Tai.
“Last night, the bandits entered the temple to commit murder and robbery. Under the diligent protection of the disciples in the temple, although the old monk was protected from harm, he was in a state of chaos after this sudden disaster. Before he could come out to greet him, please forgive me!”
Master Tanjing greeted Li Tai with respect and even pitiful attitude. His previous indifferent attitude was gone.
Putting aside other considerations, this matter is now completely beyond his ability and must rely on the power of the government to see the following. Of course, this old monk should be humble in front of Li Tai.
Li Tai frowned slightly and said with a serious expression: “Please tell me what happened and never hide anything. It is really hard to blame for the fact that such a sensational evil happened when I am at the left-behind position. I will do my best to investigate the evil and give the wizard and the people in the county a satisfactory answer!” Lan
Hearing Li Tai’s statement, Master Tan Jing felt a little more at ease, and he thought about it while repeating the things he had heard and witnessed yesterday in detail.
After listening to it, Li Tai asked a few places where the description was not clear, and then said, “I have sent people to follow the traces left by the bandits, but the bandits are very good at concealing their entry and exit. Especially according to the master, they entered and exited the temple as if they were in a nobody’s place, which shows that they were familiar with the people in the temple. It is not a sudden question, but just to ensure the thoroughness, I want to ask the staff to interrogate some monks in the temple, and I hope the monk can understand it.”
When he heard that Li Tai seemed to suspect that there were bandits in the temple in his words, Master Tan Jing couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief. In fact, he also had such doubts in his heart, because these bandits were familiar with each other, which was completely different from the first time they came to the temple.
Although believers are inevitably coming in and out in the temple in daily life, some areas are focused on precautions and rarely allow outsiders to go in and out to investigate. Without internal response, it would be difficult for those bandits to be free to enter and exit.
So he nodded again and said, “This is within the responsibilities of the envoy. If you can use the envoy to clear away evil carbuncles and poisons from the temple, the old monk will be grateful!”
“So, the master also thinks there is something evil hidden in the temple?”
After hearing this, Li Tai’s face suddenly changed. He stood up from the table, held his sword and pointed at Master Tan Jing with his hand, angrily, “I trusted the master and entrusted more than one thing to do! Since the master cannot fully grasp the situation of the people in the temple, why don’t he sue me in advance! Now that he is harmed by this thief, the Buddhist rituals may not be continued, and there is another…” Lan
At this point, his voice paused again. He ignored Master Tan Jing, whose face became extremely worried and frightened, and directly ordered: “Quickly put all the deacons and monks in the temple and interrogate them. I will not be allowed to order, and no one is allowed to be released!”
“Affect the envoy’s orders and do not disobey.”
Master Tanjing was also panicked at this moment, worried that the monks would not be able to control their emotions and had a conflict with the state army. He hurriedly ordered, and then came to Li Tai and whispered: “The old monk is not sure whether there are really evil hidden in the temple. But if you are worried about the materials placed in this place, please rest assured that yesterday was baptized and robbed, it was just a treasure treasury in the temple. The things I stored here were not affected because of their remoteness…”
“I will know whether they have been affected or not.”
Li Tai’s face turned pale and did not improve because of Master Tanjing’s comfort. He held his sword with one hand and looked at Master Tanjing in a deep voice, “There is still room for re-preparation in prayer for Buddha. But if the materials I have missed here, I am afraid that I and the master will no longer have hope for in the future!”
Master Tanjing was shocked when he heard Li Tai’s serious statement. He did not dare to inquire about this, but seeing Li Tai say the words of death, he can’t help but secretly regret not accepting such a hot potato in the temple.
But it is useless to be upset now. He can only hope that no accidents will occur in that batch of goods and go to check them together with Li Tai. Lan
After coming to this warehouse, Master Tan Jing secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that there were no obvious signs of damage.
Li Tai’s guards stopped him outside, so he stood outside and saw Li Tai walking alone, but he couldn’t see him walking for a long time. His heartstrings gradually tense, and cold sweat was pouring on his forehead.
“Take the old monk in!”
After a long time, Li Tai’s shout came from the warehouse, but a sense of anger appeared in the hoarse tone.
