The sword is the devil

Chapter 257
Monk Lantern is a frequent visitor and has been here several times, so the two entered the temple smoothly, guided by monks, and went straight to the meditation hall.

But Master Nanneng was not in the monastery. He heard from the monks that he would not return until evening when he went out to visit friends.

"Wait? Or leave a note and come back tomorrow?" Lantern asked, he was still a little nervous, so he made this proposal.

Hou Tiao smiled, "Wait! Once you enter the gate of the temple, how can you return empty-handed? Monk, you are still inexperienced. Don't care about right or wrong in handling cases like this, but the momentum must be controlled. It cannot be the same as a real visitor."

The lantern monk looked dissatisfied, "What do you mean, even if this matter has nothing to do with Jianjia Temple, you have to put on a posture that if you are not honest, I can get you in if I frame you?"

Hou Tiao nodded, "Rubbers can be taught."

Looking around the meditation hall, in fact, nothing can be seen, "Bring Zhike, such a famous Xionger Temple, we must pay close attention to it."

The monk with the lantern shook his eyelids, "Are you looking for the breath of the demon fox? It's up to you, but I want to warn you, except for Master Nanneng, everyone else in this temple is ordinary people who don't know how to practice. You can't do it." Use those cultivation methods to deal with them, otherwise the master will blame you when he comes back, don't say I won't help you."

Hou Tiao waved his hand, "I've seen it a long time ago, don't worry, I'm not the kind of bullying person."

He found a wise guest and led the two of them to watch around the temple, not missing a single thing.Hou Tiao was very interested, but as he promised, not to mention using methods of self-cultivation, he didn't even have any temptations in words, just like a real pilgrim offering incense and worshiping Buddha devoutly in the Daxiong Hall.

When he knelt down, the monk with the lamp was very curious, "Can disciples of the Demon Sect also worship Buddha?"

Hou Niao bared her teeth and smiled, "I worship the devil!"

...Danli was once a legacy of poison, and Qingdeng was also a demon.

Monk Lantern's eyes froze. Although this swordsman was rude and cold, sometimes his words were thought-provoking.Comparing a Buddha to a demon would turn his face against someone else immediately, but he wouldn’t, he would carefully compare the Buddha and the demon, and then find out the differences and similarities.
For a whole day, Hou Tiao watched with great interest, accompanied by the lantern without complaint or regret, only suffering from the acquaintance, knowing that these two people are both practitioners like the abbot, but he dared not offend him, so he could only rummage through his explanations. Not enough, history will come together, at least it lasted until dusk, and at dinner time, Master Nanneng finally came back.

In the meditation hall, the young monk brewed tea and quietly left; the three people in the hall stood facing each other, and there was a moment of silence.

Monk Nanneng is thin and thin, but his face is full of red light. When the wide monk robe covers his body, the back figure drags out the elder against the candlelight. There is no pressure. Let Hou Tiao always be alert to himself. In the realm, he ranks among the masters who are sensitive to the gods, and is honored as a monk in Buddhist orthodoxy. He is an existence in the same realm as Master Yu Zhengxing.

Monk Carrying the Lamp felt that he had to break the silence. He was afraid that if the silence lasted for a long time, the atmosphere would become even weirder.

"Master, this disciple is here to introduce a friend. I heard that there is a great virtue in Jianjia Temple, so I come here to listen to the teaching..."

Master Nanneng waved his hand, "There's no need to hide it, Buddhists don't tell lies, and they don't make false statements; this person you brought with you is not a friend, but a public servant, who is guarded by Xiong'er of Shan State; this is not to listen to my teaching, it's better to say Hear my testimony."

The monk with the lantern shut his mouth in embarrassment. He was most afraid of such a situation. If Master Nanneng made it clear that he would not cooperate, how could the two of them, Xiaoxiu, get an expert whose realm was two levels higher than theirs?

Master Nan Neng ignored him, and only looked at Hou Tiao with a calm expression, but the words in his mouth did not leave any room.

"Amitabha, mountain monks are not good at talking nonsense, so I'll just say it straight, whether it was done by the demon fox or not, it didn't do it."

Hou Tiao's expression remained unchanged, he had a premonition of the reaction of this Buddhist master. In fact, the most difficult part of the whole incident was not how to prove that Yaohu was the murderer, but how to persuade Nan Neng to cooperate with them; there is such a master By the way, can they find out who the ass is?

"The master is straightforward, and the disciple is not afraid to be hypocritical. Open the skylight and speak honestly. This disciple, no matter whether this matter was done by the demon fox or not, it must have done it!"

The monk with the lantern tightened his mind, he was afraid of what would happen, what he was most worried about happened. He had prepared countless contingencies for such a situation before, but now he found that none of them could be used.

Monk Nanneng Gujing Wubo, "Oh? The poor monk wants to know how you plan to convict it?"

Hou Tiao didn't hesitate, "If the master doesn't hand it over, I will announce the crime of the demon fox in the whole Xiong'er area, so that it can hardly argue; at the same time, it will be reported to the church to ask for support, because the backstage of the demon fox cannot be manipulated by disciples."

He pulled out the big banner behind him without hesitation, which surprised the monk with the lantern. He thought that this guy would accomplish this on his own.

Master Nan Neng was not surprised, "I heard that Hou Zhenshou was a prisoner for a city before he entered Taoism. Now it seems that he has not forgotten his old profession. He is very proficient in this kind of public affairs."

Hou Tiao was honest and honest, "Dare not to lie to the master. In the criminal arrests before, [-]% of the cases could not find the murderer, but the higher-ups were in a hurry, either for political achievements, or for pressure, so the disciple could only learn from those who committed crimes." Choose one of the offending candidates, so that everyone will be satisfied and get rid of the garbage, so why not do it?"

Master Nan Neng looked at him, "But the real culprit ran away."

Hou Tiao remained unmoved, "The real culprit can't run away, as long as he feels safe, he will naturally come out to commit crimes again, and find another reason to arrest him; if you give me enough time, all the offenders will run away No, the only regret may be that the accusation is somewhat wrong, and as far as the result is concerned, it doesn't matter."

Nan Neng was a little annoyed, because this little guy was a bit difficult to deal with; he also had his own sources of information about the so-called inside stories of these big forces, and he knew that the backstage of the Quanzhen Guard was the famous and vicious inspector of the Quanzhen Sect The system is also the most difficult part of the Quanzhen Sect to deal with. The heavy killings are truly demonic.

This made him unable to use the simplest way to drive this guy out. He really brought the demon fox back, and he didn't know if it did such a thing. He didn't want to succumb to pressure so easily, but if Isn't it worthwhile to offend the Quanzhen Sect's Sikong Department's Duwei Mansion for a demon fox?
Looking at Monk Carrying the Lamp, "Master and nephew here, do you have the same attitude?"

This is what Monk Lantern fears the most. Now he regrets coming here with this lunatic, which puts him in a dilemma.

He had to answer, in the end, he still chose the most beneficial way for his practice,
"There are rules in the temple that can bind the law, that is, the heart is the Buddha and does not pass on the lamp."
