Chapter 43: Presiding over justice

The abbot of Tantuo Temple is called Hongren.

Hundreds of years ago, the monk who suppressed the snake demon in Qingyun Mountain was also called Hongren. Perhaps the names overlapped, but Su Yang felt vaguely that this should not be a coincidence.

At least Zen Master Hongren prepares tributes for the ghosts every night, so this is not an ordinary person.

And Su Yang came to Tantuo Temple, but he did not feel the existence of ghosts.

This is either because of Hongren, who is pretending to be a ghost, or because of the fortune of Hongren, who is concealed.

"I want to visit Zen Master Hongren."

Su Yang said to Zhang Jieshou.

Zhang Jieshou was completely unlucky and said, "Zen Master Hongren is in the abbot's room on weekdays, so I will take you there."

Su Yang and Yan Mingyue looked at each other. Yan Mingyue had no objection. The two followed Zhang Jieshou and went to the abbot's room together.

The abbot's room where Master Hongren is located is a separate small courtyard. A few green bamboos are planted in this courtyard, which makes me feel a little more Zen. The door of the room where Master Hongren is located is closed, and Su Yang uses his wisdom to look inside and sees a fat and stout monk. When the cold weather in Shenjing City is getting hotter, he exposes his chest in the room and sleeps on the stone slab on the windowsill.

"Dongdongdongdongdong."

Zhang Jieshou knocked on the door in front and shouted, "Zen Master Hongren."

"Here, come."

The fat monk woke up from the stone slab and stretched his hand to him. The originally wide cassock wrapped him inside. He smiled and came to the door. He reached out to open the door. He immediately saw Su Yang and Yan Mingyue outside the door.

"Mr. Zhang, I asked you and your wife to live in this Tantuo Temple, but you didn't ask you to introduce other couples to our Tantuo Temple to stay in our Tantuo Temple."

Zen Master Hongren's eyes circled on Su Yang and Yan Mingyue, then looked at Zhang Jieshou and said dissatisfiedly.

"Abbot forgives his crime..."

The simple words of Zen Master Hongren made Zhang Jie sweat profuse. He did not expect that Zen Master Hongren knew that he and Qingmei and Ah Xi were husband and wife, but even so, he could still live in Tantuo Temple with his wife.

Buddhism has always been a pure place that allows people to stay overnight, but they will never accommodate couples at the same time. After all, a couple is fucking fire. If they do something about having children in this Buddhism, they will defile the Buddhist holy land in vain.

Zhang Jieshou knew these rules.

However, during the days he stayed in Tantuo Temple, he had never stopped, Ah Xi and Qingmei. At this moment, Zhang Jie felt a little frightened, afraid of his actions, so he let Zen Master Hongren drive them out.

Zen Master Hongren ignored Zhang Jieshou and looked at Su Yang instead, then looked at Yan Mingyue beside Su Yang, and said, "You couple also came to Tantuo Temple to stay in?"

"We are not husband and wife!"

Yan Mingyue was in front of him, and he coldly argued about his relationship with Su Yang.

"That's how it is."

Zen Master Hongren smiled, looked at Yan Mingyue, and said, "Is it that my eyes are so clumsy, don't know the identities of you two?"

Su Yang looked at Mingyue, saw that she looked cold and had a gorgeous look, but her lips were tightly pursed and she obviously didn't want to speak, so she said to Monk Hongren: "We are friends."

"oh……"

Zen Master Hongren responded with a long voice, looked at Su Yang and Yan Mingyue, and said, "Are you renting a house here to avoid the beautiful girl of King Guangcai in Qi?"

King Qi recruits a beautiful girl?

Su Yang has done a lot of work in the capital and has a lot of eyewitness in the imperial city, but no matter from any aspect, there has been no news that the King of Qi wanted to recruit a beautiful girl.

"You don't know yet."

Zen Master Hongren said with a smile: "The Prince of Qi is about to ascend the throne. After the Prince of Qi ascends the throne, he will naturally recruit many beautiful girls and replace the palace. Now many officials and families in the city have begun to prepare for it. In some remote places, a group of women who have already gathered will enter the capital soon."

Su Yang nodded slightly. The people above may not have such intentions, but the people below are the ones who can figure out the meaning the most, so they will do a lot of things. Now many officials are optimistic about the King of Qi, so they naturally try their best to be the King of Qi.

"We are not here to hide from the girl who is so beautiful, and the King of Qi can't find us."

Su Yang looked at Zen Master Hongren and asked with a smile: "We just heard that the ghosts here are strange and ate tributes many times. No one can catch them, which makes the monks here helpless. Mingyue and I are both capable people. After hearing this, we will draw our swords to help..."

In Su Yang's opinion, the Zen Master Hongren in front of him was not simple. This fat monk was just his appearance, and Su Yang could not see his true abilities and true identity.

Zen Master Hongren looked at Su Yang with a smile on his face, and counted Buddhist beads in his hand. He looked at Su Yang and said, "Young Master, this haunted soul in Tantuo Temple is not something to be saved by magic."

“Why?”

Su Yang asked in surprise.

If you don’t use magic, you have to use scriptures. If the scriptures don’t work, you have to untie the knot in her heart.

At the same time, the words of Zen Master Hongren are enough to prove that he should have known everything about the haunted in Tantuo Temple and is still involved in it.

Zen Master Hongren smiled and reached out to ask Su Yang, Mingyue, and Zhang Jieshou to follow him, while Zen Master Hongren went towards the back mountain of Tantuo Temple.

The back mountain of Tantuo Temple is beautiful and the scenery is pleasant. Zen Master Hongren took Su Yang to the pine and cypress forest. After walking in the woods for a while, Su Yang suddenly stopped. From his perspective, he naturally saw the corpses in front, including old and young, young and middle-aged, women, and corpses in the wilderness.

"Who are they?"

Su Yang asked.

"Loyal family members."

Zen Master Hongren looked at Su Yang and said, "After the King of Qi entered the capital, there were always some people who were unwilling to surrender, and some good officials were framed. Those who were unwilling to surrender were killed by the King of Qi, and their souls were exiled here. After their death, their souls were unwilling to leave, so they wandered around in Tantuo Temple every night, wanting to wait for their justice so that they could die clearly, rather than the vague underworld of the underworld."

"I admire these people, so I worship them every night, hoping that they can live a better life after becoming a ghost."

Su Yang nodded. He understood that what the souls in front of him lacked was justice, and the justice that King Qi should explain to them.

"Zheng Dragon, can you give them justice?"

Zen Master Hongren looked at Su Yang and suddenly asked.

Su Yang looked at Zen Master Hongren in surprise. The other party was obviously above him in the practice of the eight consciousnesses, so that he could see through the dragon energy hidden around him.

"certainly!"

Su Yang said for sure.

As long as the King of Qi is dealt with and overturning the case for them, the soul here can rest in peace.
