The Ming Dynasty in Another World: People are in the Heavenly Prison, and Wuji becomes a Taoist

Lin Mo and Xu Baili looked over at the same time.

The person who came was Maya's master, Master Ruby.

"Master, he was the first to attack. I..."

Before Maya could finish her words, she was sternly interrupted by Master Ruby.

"Shut up! Do you think I didn't see what you did just now? I may be old, but I'm not blind. If you dare to deceive me again, you will not be allowed to continue practicing in Kaiyuan Temple."

Maya didn't expect the master to speak so seriously.

He immediately panicked and begged anxiously: "Master, I was wrong, please don't chase me away!"

"Then change your temper in the future, and don't lose your judgment when something urgent happens!"

Master Ruby's tone was slow but full of authority.

Maya wanted to argue.

But when he saw his master's intimidating expression, all thoughts of rebuttal were instantly extinguished, and he could only bow his head and admit his mistake: "Yes, Master, I understand."

After reprimanding his apprentice, Master Ruby turned to Lin Mo and apologized.

"Layman, Maya was too anxious because the holy objects in the temple were stolen. I hope you won't take it personally."

Xu Baili, who was standing by, witnessed this scene and became even more confused.

Master Ruby has a highly respected position in Kaiyuan Temple, but he repeatedly openly reprimanded his beloved disciple Maya for the sake of Lin Mo, an outsider. This scene is really puzzling!

If someone said that this was because Master Ruby was sensible and fair, he would not believe it anyway.

But no matter how hard he scratched his head, he just couldn't figure out the reason.

At the same time, Lin Mo glanced at Master Ruby meaningfully with a deep look in his eyes.

He suspected that the other party saw something in him.

Otherwise, how could he be so sensible?

However, Lin Mo was very satisfied with the other party's attitude, so he didn't say much.

"Master, I would like to ask you a question. What is the holy object that your temple has lost?"

Lin Mo asked.

"The linga was originally enshrined in the Shiva temple. It was still there yesterday, but it has disappeared today. I think it was stolen last night."

Master Ruby said slowly with a calm expression.

As soon as he finished speaking, Maya could no longer hold back and angrily accused, “Although the temple is open to the public during this period, the Shiva temple has been closed and no one except you can enter.

You finished your visit yesterday, and the Linga was stolen the next day. Do you dare to say that you really have nothing to do with this matter?"

Master Ruby frowned slightly when he heard this, but said nothing.

Obviously, he also suspected that Lin Mo and others were involved in this matter.

Lin Mo suddenly realized that it was no wonder that Maya was so excited.

He spoke slowly, his tone calm.

"Master, to be honest, we two just came from Kyoto. The English guest who insisted on visiting the Shiva Temple yesterday happened to be found missing today. I think there may be some connection between these two things."

After hearing this, Maya's face changed suddenly.

"What? Did that guy escape overnight after stealing the holy relic?"

Lin Mo shook his head.

"There is no solid evidence to prove that he has anything to do with this matter."

However, Lin Mo speculated in his heart.

Maybe it was really possible that Charles took a risk and stole the linga to treat his kidney deficiency.

However, he did not say this to Master Ruby.

After all, this was just his personal guess.

Afterwards, the group entered the Shiva temple together.

The niche in the center of the temple was empty.

Previously, that was the place where Linga was originally enshrined.

Lin Mo looked around and saw that the temple was surrounded by high walls, with only one entrance and exit through the gate.

unless……

Some people can climb walls and fly through the air!

At this time, Master Ruby suddenly spoke in a deep voice: "In my opinion, this matter is probably not done by humans."

"Oh? Inhumane?"

Xu Baili didn't understand what he meant.

"If it wasn't done by humans, then what could it be?"

Lin Mo frowned.

Although Kaiyuan Temple is not a purely Buddhist or Taoist place, it is also very popular.

People come and go every day, and the atmosphere is righteous.

Besides, there are many hidden talents in the temple. How could ordinary evil spirits dare to set foot in it easily?

How could someone come here on their own initiative to steal the holy object?

Isn't this like lighting a light in the toilet - seeking death?

Facing Lin Mo's question, Master Ruby shook his head.

“That’s why I’m so confused. There is indeed a cold and gloomy aura lingering here, which is obviously caused by some evil thing.

But how could they be so bold? Even if they did come, how could they be so silent?

But all signs indicate that there is no other possibility."

Master Ruby looked frustrated.

After all, the sacred objects of Kaiyuan Temple disappeared inexplicably, and it would be embarrassing to tell others about it.

Lin Mo patted his chest and promised solemnly.

"Master, rest assured. If this matter is really related to the English guest, our Secret Service will investigate it thoroughly and give your temple a satisfactory explanation."

After hearing Lin Mo's promise, Master Ruby's expression eased a lot.

"The layman is in trouble."

Coming out of Kaiyuan Temple, Xu Baili smiled bitterly.

"Team Leader Lin, this is really weird. Even the sacred objects of Kaiyuan Temple could be stolen. Do you think Charles did it?"

Lin Mo thought for a moment and said slowly: "He is indeed a big suspect. Let's assume that this is really what he did. Then, it would be difficult for him to do it alone. I guess he must have other helpers behind him."

Lin Mo suddenly remembered that Frank had mentioned that Charles and Evelyn were both members of the Tarot Club.

Could it be that Tarot is helping in secret?

If this were true, Charles might have already escaped and returned to the English peninsula.

"Then what do we do next?"

Xu Baili asked.

Unconsciously, he had already regarded Lin Mo as the person in charge.

"Let's go back first and see if Charles has come back."

Lin Mo took a deep breath.

at the same time.

A young man walked into the Six Nations Hotel and quickly completed the check-in procedures.

He took the room key and went straight to the second floor.

In the corridor, a cleaner who had just finished cleaning walked out of the adjacent room pushing a cleaning cart.

When I saw him, I habitually gave him a polite smile.

"Good afternoon, sir."

The young man nodded at him kindly.

"I want to clean the room I'm staying in, is that okay?"

The cleaner explained: "Sir, the rooms here have been cleaned according to the standards..."

"I have severe mysophobia, so please take the trouble to come over again." The man interrupted rudely.

"Ok."

The cleaner said helplessly.

Adhering to the principle of customer first, I followed the man into the room.

However, as soon as he entered, the young man closed the door.

"Sir, what are you doing..."

Before the cleaner could finish his words, the young man in front of him suddenly struck him on the neck with a lightning-fast knife.

The cleaner suddenly fell to the ground, unconscious.

The young man quickly changed into a cleaner's uniform, picked up the cleaning tools, closed the door quietly, and went straight to the third floor.

When we reached the third floor, we saw two police officers standing guard in front of two doors with serious expressions.

When I saw the man, I mistook him for a cleaner at the hotel.

"No cleaning service is needed here, you..."

The young man's eyes flashed, without the slightest hesitation.

A sharp dagger fell out of his sleeve, and his figure was like a ghost, rushing in front of the two police officers in the blink of an eye.

One of the officers reacted quickly, drawing his gun and shooting, but the man was even faster.

The dagger drew a silver arc in the air and accurately pierced the opponent's heart, causing blood to spurt out immediately.

Before the other police officer could fire his gun, he was kicked hard in the abdomen by the man.

The whole person flew backwards and fell heavily to the ground, groaning in pain, and lost his ability to fight.

The man walked up and kicked the other man in the neck.

With a "click", the police officer's neck broke instantly and he was no longer breathing.
