Rebirth in 1958: Getting rich starts from Nanluoguxiang

Two hours ago, the morning class had already passed and the Taoists in the hall had dispersed.

The abbot of the Inspiration Palace, Taoist Xuan Zhen, asked the receptionist to inquire about the situation.

Yesterday, three pilgrims came down the mountain, two ladies and one man. They came to the Niangniang Temple to fulfill their vows.

These three pilgrims, who seemed to be from well-off families, donated a hundred yuan to the temple and stayed there.

Taoist Priest Xuanzhen led his disciples to attend morning classes and recite scriptures. After he finished the morning classes, he found that the presiding Taoist Priest Chunyang had not appeared.

Taoist Xuanzhen searched around but couldn't find it. He was a little surprised. His senior brother Taoist Chunyang had been a monk for twenty years.

In the past twenty years, he had never missed a single morning or evening class. Today, he thought his brother had gone to visit the three pilgrims, so he didn't pay much attention to it.

As a result, when the morning service was over, no one was seen. Xuan Zhen instructed the Taoist priest to entertain the pilgrims well.

I went to the Copper Tile Temple in the backyard alone. Several pilgrims were staying in the house behind the Copper Tile Temple.

Xuan Zhen arrived at the Copper Tile Hall and saw that the door was ajar. He pushed the door open gently and shouted loudly,

"Brother, are you there? Brother?"

The door opened, Xuanzhen looked inside, and was so frightened that he screamed, turned around and ran, shouting,

"Murder, murder, someone come quickly..."

Soon, the copper-tiled hall was surrounded by Taoist priests, and the door was pushed open, revealing the scene inside. There were three people lying inside, two women and one man.

The two women were the pilgrims who came to burn incense and stay overnight yesterday. It was said that they were cousins. The elder sister came to burn incense to pray for a child, while the younger sister came to pray for marriage. The man was the elder sister's husband.

The Daoist sect has a rule that men and women cannot sleep together when they come to burn incense and stay overnight. This cousin slept in one room with her younger cousin, and the man slept in a separate room.

Now two ladies are lying here, and that man is a Pure Yang Taoist, not the deceased's husband...

The three men were lying in the middle of the ground. They were all hacked to death by a sharp weapon. Their deaths were extremely tragic, especially Taoist Priest Chunyang, whose head was almost chopped in half.

Taoist Priest Xuan Zhen sent people to report the case and to look for the man.

Although he didn't understand why, he still ordered the Taoist priest to prepare the funeral clothes and coffin. For a moment, the Taoist priests who were watching were talking about it.

There were a few pilgrims who, seeing this scene, did not dare to stay any longer and hurried down the mountain.

Miaofeng Mountain is also under the jurisdiction of the Fangshan District Public Security Bureau. After receiving the report, Jin Man, Han Dongliang, Yang Guanglin, and Zheng Wenlin, a forensic doctor, rushed to the Niangniang Temple.

When Jin Man saw this scene after entering the temple, he couldn't help it and ran out to hold onto a tree and started vomiting.

Suddenly, a hand holding a kettle came over. Jin Man took it and said thank you.

A clear voice said with a smile,

"Auntie, why are you vomiting so much?"

Jin Man turned around in surprise and saw Dabao carrying a gun, wearing a military uniform, with bandages on his legs, looking at him with a smile.

Jinman walked over and patted Dabao.

"Dabao, why are you here?"

Dabao said with a smile,

"I just finished my work and was going to go hunting on Miaofeng Mountain, but I wandered around and didn't find any big game. I felt bored, so I stopped by the Niangniang Temple for a stroll.

As soon as I came in, I saw you, Auntie, leaning against a tree and vomiting. What happened? Is there someone dead in there?

Jinman nodded.

"Three people are dead, all hacked to death by sharp weapons. You happen to be here, please help me find out who did this."

Dabao nodded. Since he had already met her, it would be good to solve the case at the same time. He followed Jinman to the Tongwa Temple with a gun on his back. When he arrived at the door, he was almost smoked out.

Now the whole hall was filled with the smell of blood, coupled with the smell of human autopsy. Except for the experienced police officers and forensic doctors, no one else could stand this smell.

Dabao walked in and saw Zheng Wenlin dissecting a female corpse.

Dabao stood at the back, without covering his nose with a handkerchief. He lowered his head slightly to look at the wound on the corpse and asked casually,

"This wound doesn't look like it was caused by a knife, but rather an axe or something sharp?"

Zheng Wenlin answered in a muffled voice,

"Get out of the way and don't delay my work."

Dabao kicked him.

"What's your attitude?"

Zheng Wenlin turned around and saw that it was Dabao, and shouted happily,

"Director Qin, why are you here?"

Dabao pointed at the corpse.

"Finish your work first, and I'll tell you when I'm done."

"Okay,"

Zheng Wenlin continued to dissect the body. Dabao turned aside to look at the other two bodies. This woman was quite lucky. She died in an instant.

But the man was different. His hair was split apart and scattered on the ground, with blood splattered everywhere. The blood under his body had dried up, and the smell was even more pungent.

Dabao looked around carefully and shook his head helplessly. What a deep hatred this was! It almost broke his head.

Dabao walked out of the hall, and Jinman followed him out. Not far away from the hall stood several Taoists, whispering.

Dabao walked over and said,

"Masters, could you please tell me about the situation of the deceased?"

The Taoist priest in the middle bowed.

"May I ask who you are, benefactor?"

Jin Man answered beside him,

"Master, this is Director Qin from our Municipal Bureau. You should answer whatever he asks."

"Okay, okay, Director Qin, I am the abbot of the temple, and my Taoist name is Xuanzhen."

Dabao has always been very respectful to monks. When he heard the introduction, he immediately bowed slightly in return.

"Hello, Taoist Xuanzhen,"

Xuan Zhen waved his hands hurriedly.

"You don't have to be polite. The thing is, the man who died inside was my senior brother, the abbot of this temple, the Pure Yang Taoist priest.

The two female messengers were the pilgrims who came to burn incense yesterday. My senior brother did not come to the morning service today. After the morning service, I went to the Copper Tile Hall to look for him.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw them dead in the middle of the hall. I immediately called the police and sent people to look for the male donor who came with the two ladies yesterday.

"Master Xuanzhen, what is the relationship between that male donor and these two ladies?"

Xuanzhen replied,

"Yesterday I received three donors who introduced themselves as being from Mentougou, at the foot of the mountain. Two of them were a married couple, the man named Wang Xingwen and the woman named Chen Yali. The other female messenger was Chen Yali's cousin, Tang Shuzhen. After offering incense, the three donors decided to stay here for two days and visit Miaofeng Mountain..."
