Chapter 35 The wise and foolish old monk

The next day.

In the morning, after dinner, Lin Qingzhi took the ownership of the land next to him from the village.

This is to build a house for his grandfather.

After living in Lin Qingzhi's house, grandpa also wanted to live in a wooden house, so this time he was still the one who made the decision whether it was drawing or building, and Lin Qingzhi took out the money first.

It was also Lin Qingzhi who persuaded his uncle and grandfather for a long time before they agreed.

They originally wanted to build a thatched house to live in first.

But how could Lin Qingzhi agree.

Building a house always requires a good day, whether it is in the present or in the future, so early in the morning, Lin Qingzhi's aunt and sister-in-law came to find grandma and aunt, and asked them to go to Taohua Temple together. The old monk there is very spiritual.

Last time Lin Qingzhi built a house, it was also the aunt and Lin Shi's wife who went to ask together.

After breakfast, several people walked towards Taohua Temple together.

Because the people of the Night Watch had issued a notice that the water monkeys had been eliminated, many fishing boats and ferry boats had appeared on the entire river.

While chatting, grandma and her friends had crossed the Luo River and walked towards Taohua Mountain.

Now it is summer, and the peach trees on Taohua Mountain are full of fruits.

In summer, many monkeys will appear on Taohua Mountain. Every year they will come to pick peaches. At that time, the people of Dong'an Town, even those aunts who believe in Buddhism, will not go to Taohua Mountain.

Those monkeys are crazy.

Hitting people with peaches is just a child's play. They will also rob pedestrians' things. Every year, people will be robbed.

So, gradually, fewer people go up the mountain.

Except for some warriors.

They were not afraid of these monkeys. There was no such thing as protecting animals here. If they angered the warriors, they would kill dozens of monkeys and scare them away.

They stopped at that point.

Even if they killed dozens of monkeys last year, they would not learn their lesson the next year.

The peaches were not ripe yet, so there was no danger in going to Taohua Temple, so Lin Qingzhi did not let anyone accompany him.

At the same time.

The Night Watch Division was indeed a professional in dealing with those demons and ghosts. In just two days, they had already locked the man behind the scenes.

They never thought that the man behind the scenes was the wise old monk who they respected as a master, but whether they believed it or not, all the evidence pointed to the old monk.

Every time a case occurred, the old monk would appear after the incident.

Whether it was the wife of the fisherman who died this time, the villager who was burst by the food, or Wang Shaogang who was dragged to the bottom of the river by the water monkey.

There was the appearance of the old monk.

You can say it was a coincidence, but the coincidence that appeared every time was not a coincidence, but a deliberate appearance.

Not only that, but also the old monk was very old, and it was very likely that he would practice the Seven Demonic Gu Techniques because he wanted to live.

The most important evidence is that the old monk Huichi came from the largest temple in Xia Country, Kongling Temple.

Once, the Kongling Temple was used to destroy the Demon Sect, and someone had seen that when Kongling Temple destroyed the Demon Sect, it moved some of the Demon Sect's skills back to Kongling Temple.

Therefore, as a monk who once walked out of Kongling Temple, it is very likely that he would remember the Demon Sect's skills.

After knowing this result.

Zheng Hu took the people of the Night Watch to Taohua Temple.

When they set out, grandma and the others had already walked through the gate of Taohua Temple.

Inside the temple, there were several pilgrims like them, all of them were aunts from the surrounding villages, who were either praying for marriage for their children or praying for children for their sons.

Or praying for the well-being of their families.

"Amitabha, all female donors, please come with the monks to preside over the chanting in the side hall." After grandma finished offering incense, she just explained her purpose to the monk. After the monk went to ask Hui Chi, he quickly came back to take a few people over.

The aunt and Lin Shi's wife are both old pilgrims.

When they came to the side hall and opened the door, they saw the old monk Hui Chi sitting there.

He closed his eyes tightly, holding the Buddhist beads in one hand and knocking the wooden fish in the other.

The unique sound of the wooden fish came from the side hall, as if it was cleansing everyone's soul.

"Master, the female donors are here."

The monk called the old monk respectfully.

"Amitabha, Weikong, go get some tea, female donors, please sit down, I don't know if you have any questions."

The old monk first instructed his disciples, and then asked the grandmother and others.

"Master, it's like this, my aunt is going to build a house recently, can you help us see which day is a good day." The aunt said from the side.

"Amitabha, I see, I wonder if this female donor has brought the birthday of the head of the family."

"Yes, yes, please trouble the master." Grandma quickly took out the birth date of grandpa.

The last time Lin Qingzhi's birth date was also given to the old monk.

It's not fortune-telling, but whether there are taboos on the day, so the old monk escaped.

If he really did it, he would definitely die suddenly.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that monks do not tell fortunes. There are Buddhist precepts that prohibit Buddhists from telling fortunes.

In this way, the old monk took out an almanac from the cabinet on the side, and after looking at the birth date for a while, he said: "This female donor will have a good day in four months, and she is very suitable for your head."

"Thank you, master, thank you, master..." Grandma thanked her repeatedly after hearing this.

His daughter's sister-in-law said that this old monk was very powerful, so he believed what the old monk said.

Just when a few people were about to leave, a burst of anxious footsteps came from outside.

Immediately afterwards, Zheng Hu appeared at the gate of the side hall with several night watchmen.

"My lord, my lord..."

A monk came running from not far away, breathing rapidly, as if he was chasing Zheng Hu and others.

"Amitabha... I don't know why you are so anxious." The old monk looked at Zheng Hu and others who appeared, his face still as pale as water.

"Old monk Hui Chi, have you forgotten what you have done?"

Zheng Hu walked in front of the old monk, looked directly into his eyes, and said slowly.

"Monk, I have done too many things in my life. I don't know which one you are talking about!" The old monk raised his head and looked into Zheng Hu's eyes without any fluctuation.

"Hmph! Old monk, your life is almost over! You must have practiced the Seven Demonic Gu Techniques, right?" Zheng Hu snorted coldly, squinting at the old monk and said.

Hearing the name of the Seven Demonic Gu Technique, Hui Chi finally had some fluctuations in his eyes, but it quickly disappeared.

However, Zheng Hu was still aware of it.
