Qu Liang held up the jade pendant to the light and said, "Look carefully, there is a thin crack in the middle of the forehead of this Buddha statue. Is it true or not?"

Prince Yong chuckled, "It's clearly a crack. No matter how good the jade token is, if it has even a tiny crack like this, it's worthless."

Qu Liang shook his head, "No, this is not a crack, it is deliberately carved. This Buddha statue is the unique Buddha with the Heavenly Eye in Jiming Temple! This tiny crack is the Heavenly Eye of this Buddha statue."

"Because I have taken on so many cases, my wife likes to come to Jiming Temple to pray for me. The Buddha statue in Jiming Temple is said to close at dawn and open at dusk."

"Yes, we also think so. This jade token came from Jiming Temple. Therefore, as long as we find out who in Jiming Temple blessed the jade token, we will be able to identify the person behind the scenes."

Yu Qinghong looked at Prince Yong and said.

Prince Yong took the jade pendant and took a closer look at it. "Could it be? Is it really my eyes that are blurring my eyes?"

Tang Yiran had been feeling anxious and uneasy. Suddenly she thought of something and said with a gloomy face, "Not good!"

The other three people heard this and asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"

Tang Yiran frowned, thinking:

"Since this person intended to kill and silence the witnesses, they were not able to continue their attack because Brother Qinghong discovered their tracks."

Yu Qinghong seemed to understand what Tang Yiran was worried about, so he continued Tang Yiran's words:

"Now that there is no one to protect him, this person will definitely take the opportunity to start a massacre and slaughter all the witnesses!"

Qu Liang and Prince Yong were shocked when they heard this. They immediately stood up, looked at each other, and said in unison: "Why didn't I think of it?"

"Qi Feng and Qi Yun, you two take your brothers to the residential area near the murder case in Chengbei Village. If you encounter anyone with suspicious behavior or murderous intent, arrest them immediately!"

King Yong shouted to Qi Feng and Qi Yun who were outside the door. Because the shout contained internal force, Qi Feng and Qi Yun looked at each other and quickly stood up to mobilize people.

Tang Yiran took out a red porcelain bottle from his arms and handed it to King Yong.

"Wait! Godfather! Let them take this drug with them. If anyone behaves suspiciously, just open the lid and let them smell it. I guarantee they will sleep for three days and three nights."

Then he took out a green porcelain bottle and said, "Take this, and the drug won't affect the Qi brothers."

Prince Yong took the two porcelain bottles and looked at Tang Yiran with admiration, "Qi Feng and Qi Yun, come back! I'll give you something good!"

Qi Feng and Qi Yun began to gather their brothers and hurried back. After hearing King Yong's introduction, they were eager to try it out. Qi Feng solemnly took the porcelain bottle and put it in his arms.

"Let's go to Jiming Temple!" Prince Yong lifted his robe and left.

As they walked, Prince Yong said solemnly, "I want to see the origin of this jade token!"

A few people rode on fast horses and arrived at the foot of Jiming Mountain in less than an hour.

There is an inn here, named "Zhumadian". Outside the inn is a herbal tea shop. The shop is open to the sky, and there is a black and white flag with the words "Jiang Po Tea" written on it.

I saw a skinny old woman, limping, walking towards them. The old woman was smiling, and it seemed as if all the wrinkles on her face had bloomed into a flower.

"Sir, the weather is hot and you are all sweating. Would you like some herbal tea?"

King Yong felt even more thirsty after hearing this, so he waved his sleeves generously, "Sit down! One bowl per person!"

The old woman sang loudly: "Four bowls of cold tea!"

After a while, an old man came out of the door. In his left hand, he was holding a tray with four coarse porcelain tea bowls steadily placed on the tray. He walked towards the few people.

The old man came up to the group of people, put the tray on the table, and carried it to them one by one with his left hand.

Looking closely at the tray, not a single drop of water had spilled.

"Sir, please use it slowly!"

The old man finished speaking with a smile, and walked back with the empty tray. It was not until then that the few people noticed that the right sleeve of the old man was empty.

The old woman sat down at the table and started chatting with a few people familiarly: "Sir, are you going up the mountain to ask for divination? Or are you asking for the blessing of the Buddha of the Sky Eye?"

"Of course... I ask for the blessing of the Buddha of Heavenly Eyes. I heard that the Buddha of Heavenly Eyes is very powerful?"

Prince Yong smiled and said.

The old woman glanced at them and said in a mysterious voice, "To be honest, the spirit is very powerful, but... I always feel something is strange."

Several people were immediately curious: "What's so strange about it?"

"I heard that this Buddha of Heaven's Eye has a very high opinion of the world. The more powerful a person is, the more he will bless them to get promoted and make money; the less powerful a person is, the more he will exploit them!"

"Where did you hear that?"

Prince Yong gave Qu Liang a meaningful look. Qu Liang, of course, noticed Prince Yong's gaze and immediately lowered his head in silence, "No wonder... he was promoted so quickly!"

"The temple certainly wouldn't say so much. This is what I have concluded over the years."

The old woman said with a smile.

At this time, the old man came out and cleared his throat, "Old lady, come in and make some tea!"

"My old man called me. You guys drink first. By the way, the mountain road is narrow and rugged. Horses can't go up the mountain. Your horses are tied in the stable behind the inn. My son is watching the horses there."

After collecting the silver, the old woman limped to the door and said, "I'm coming."

Tang Yiran smiled faintly and said, "This couple is not simple. One has a crippled leg and the other has a crippled arm, but they should have some impressive martial arts skills."

A few people tied up the horses in the backyard, took the pairs of cards, and hurried up the mountain.

A few people walked up the winding stone steps, and the herbal tea they drank halfway seemed to have evaporated completely.

"It's so hot! I wish I had ice cream!"

Prince Yong put his hands on his hips, fanning himself with his sleeves, his face full of impatience.

Qu Liang nodded in agreement, "Your Majesty, the ice cream is delicious, but unfortunately I can't afford it. But shaved ice is also good, cheap, and icy!"

Tang Yiran was delighted when she heard this. It turned out that the letter she asked Qian Chen to deliver had finally arrived. Now the shaved ice machine she gave to Xiang Ming Leng Yu was finally made and put into use.

Yu Qinghong naturally realized that apart from Tang Yiran, no one else could make this ice drink taste good.

"Is that store called Summer Ice and Snow?"

Yu Qinghong asked the question even though he knew the answer.

"That's right! They also said that this is their tenth branch. We in Kyoto have been looking forward to this good thing for a long time. It tastes good, the color is beautiful, and it's cheap and big. After eating a bowl, I feel refreshed!"

Qu Liang praised the shaved ice highly, and now Prince Yong felt even thirstier. He stretched out Erkang's hand and said depressedly, "Stop! Don't say any more!"

Qu Liang immediately shut his mouth upon hearing this, but Prince Yong was planning to try the shaved ice another day to see what it tasted like.

Along the way, they met many people, some with sad faces, some chatting and laughing, and some... sitting on a sedan chair? There was a parasol on the sedan chair, which was very comfortable.
