Chapter 500 We deserve to die!
He is now used to riding a golden eagle and no longer needs to hide it. He rides the golden eagle wherever he goes. Riding a golden eagle is comfortable, fast, stable and not bumpy.
Although he is a commoner, no one has come to him to take advantage of their golden eagle. After all, a lean camel is bigger than a horse.
Xiang You was a little envious, "Master, can you let me ride Chengfeng? I've been wanting to try it too. Chengfeng is so strong, it should be no problem to carry two people, right?"
It might have been a bit difficult for it to carry two people in the past, but after eating the mother Gu, it evolved once and became bigger and stronger.
It can carry two or even three people.
Liao Jiu said, "Then you have to ask Chengfeng if he agrees."
Chengfeng and Jifeng were very understanding. They were already in their big nest on the roof and heard the conversation below.
The two of them flapped their wings towards the right and shouted angrily, as if to say, No way, get out!
Xiang You muttered, "You're so vindictive! I locked you up for a few days before, but then I let you go..."
It would have been better if he didn't mention it. As soon as he mentioned it, Chengfeng and Jifeng flew down and stretched out their claws to attack him.
Xiang You was so scared that he immediately ran away with his head in his hands.
Jiang Lianzhu laughed out loud.
Dabao and the other two are not here today. They went to school.
Otherwise, I would definitely want to go out and play with Jiang Lianzhu and the others.
He walked to the right first, and Jiang Lianzhu and Liao Jiu rode on golden eagles behind him, arriving one step ahead of him.
Outside the city, Qingguang Temple.
It is a century-old temple. It looks quite large, occupying half of the mountainside. When viewed from mid-air, there are several magnificent halls.
The golden eagle is perched on a large platform at the entrance of Qingguang Temple. There is a large incense burner in the middle where pilgrims come and go to burn incense.
When they saw the two golden eagles coming down and the people on their backs, they all looked up and marveled at them.
Qingguang Temple was very popular, so when people from the Six Gates came to investigate the case, they did not close the temple. They investigated secretly for fear of alerting the suspects.
This is the reason why Liao Jiu hasn't come here yet.
Now that we have found the clue, he came over.
Jiang Lianzhu and the other two dismounted the golden eagle, patted its wings, and let it go to play on its own. They didn't reach the right side, but there were other plainclothes spies from the Six Gates. They came forward and brought two incense sticks. "Would you like to burn incense to the Bodhisattva?"
Liao Jiu and Jiang Lianzhu took it calmly and each of them offered a big incense stick.
When the other pilgrims saw that the man and woman riding the golden eagle were also here to burn incense, they withdrew their curious gazes.
No major trouble was caused.
The two followed the spy all the way inside and into the temple.
This was Xiang You's subordinate, someone he trusted very much. Liao Jiu didn't beat around the bush and asked directly, "What happened?"
The spy said, "Reporting to the Governor, last time we invited all the monks from Qingguang Temple to the Six Gates for tea, and after we eliminated them, they were released. The abbot of Qingguang Temple and others didn't know Madam Zhou and had no contact with her. Also, the source of the talisman was not drawn by the people from Qingguang Temple. Later, a monk who was cooking and doing odd jobs accidentally let it slip that Qingguang Temple holds a temple fair every year, and he seemed to have seen these talismans being sold..."
"Did you catch him?"
The spy continued, "He said this kind of talisman seems to be sold by a woman. This woman is quite strange, wearing a large ring snake, the poisonous kind. She sells all kinds of witchcraft talismans. She came to the temple fair once two years ago, and hasn't been seen since. Then, she also said that she can help us provide portrait clues and so on. As long as we find the suspect, she can help us prove it..."
Jiang Lianzhu thought to herself, this is great.
She knew a little bit of psychological sketching and could sketch a rough outline of the criminal based on the description.
Liao Jiu quickened his pace and headed straight towards the backyard.
"Where is he now? Is the temple safe now? Why not bring him back to the Six Gates?"
The spy was full of confidence. "He's in the backyard. He won't go to the Six Gates. He said he won't help identify him if he goes there. This monk is quite old and has been in Qingguang Temple for many years. We have people protecting him. He's locked up in the backyard alone. He's right in front."
Jiang Lianzhu noticed that several people along the way were plainclothes spies from the Six Gates. The closer they got to the backyard, the fewer people there were, and basically, pilgrims wouldn't encounter anyone.
Either he was a monk or a plainclothes spy from the Six Gates.
The three of them came to the Zen room in the backyard.
The Zen room is surrounded by a bamboo forest, which is very quiet, with dense bamboo forest and fresh air...
There were several Six Gates policemen guarding the door, all fully armed and carrying knives.
Seeing Liao Jiu and the others coming over, they all greeted Liao Jiu.
"Where are the people?"
"Reporting to the Governor, he is inside. The old man has a weak leg and is lame. He doesn't want to move. He just sits in the house chanting scriptures and eating and drinking all day."
As she spoke, Jiang Lianzhu felt an inexplicable chill, and she seemed to see something moving on the bamboo behind the Zen room.
A bad premonition arose spontaneously.
She quickly jumped over everyone, strode forward, and pushed the door open...
"Hey..." The guard still wanted to stop Jiang Lianzhu.
Liao Jiu also noticed something was wrong and growled, "Get out of the way."
Everyone stepped back, and Jiang Lianzhu had already pushed open the door. Inside was a bald old monk sitting cross-legged, looking normal.
"Master?" Jiang Lianzhu called out tentatively.
There was no response. She checked his breath and found he was still breathing, but dying.
A layer of green permeated his entire body.
"This is poisoning!"
As Jiang Lianzhu spoke, she searched for the poisoning site on the old monk's body. Her eyes quickly locked onto the soles of his straw sandals, where black blood was oozing down.
Liao Jiu also saw it and took off his straw sandals.
There are two bite marks on the soles of my feet.
Jiang Lianzhu said, "It was a venomous snake bite! Just before we arrived, but the poison evaporated very quickly. I'm afraid he can't recover."
The thing that was swaying in the bamboo forest just now must be a venomous snake that escaped.
There are many kinds of poisonous snakes in the bamboo forest. There is one called the bamboo leaf pit viper, which is extremely poisonous and can hide very well in the bamboo forest, making it difficult to find.
The nurses at the Six Gates were stunned and knelt down in unison, "We have seriously misbehaved! Please punish us, sir!"
They only guarded the people, but unexpectedly, they were bitten by wild animals!
At this time, Xiang You rushed over in a hurry.
Seeing this situation, he angrily shouted, "Useless! How did you guard it?"
"Right Envoy! We deserve death!"
Liao Jiu was annoyed by their noise and said, "Everyone, get out."
The guards all lowered their heads and hurried out.
He touched his head and said, "Master, it's my fault... I..."
"You shut up too. You messed up such an important clue. We'll settle the score later."
Xiang You didn't dare to speak.
As soon as he found a clue, he reported it to Liao Jiu.
The master was indirectly harmed by the talisman and was stabbed. He was the victim and also the most experienced person in interrogating the criminal.
As a result, in just a short while, someone took advantage of the opportunity.
