Damn it, I'm in the garbage book I wrote

Chapter 379 Raid on the Monk Temple

In the early morning of Jinling City, many people were awakened from their erotic dreams by a burst of trivial footsteps. Someone opened the window and looked out, and saw a group of people in gorgeous clothes and swords jogging on the street. These people were all eunuchs, but that didn't mean they were all useless. It could be said that with the same equipment, most normal men could not gain the upper hand against these eunuchs in a one-on-one fight.

These were once the most feared eunuch special forces of the royal family, and now they are members of the Investigation Department.

At the front of the team was a horse-drawn carriage, and the person pulling the carriage was Luo Shixin, who was dressed in military uniform. It was obvious who was in the carriage.

A group of 500 people took advantage of the dim light and rushed all the way to the location of the Baoen Temple. Baoen Temple was formerly known as Changgan Temple. It was originally rebuilt during the Taikang period of the Western Jin Dynasty and later renamed Buddha Bone Temple. It was renamed Baoen Temple 120 years ago.

It was not the number one temple in the world at the beginning. After all, both the White Horse Temple in Luoyang and the Famen Temple were much earlier than it. It was only after Hongbao moved the capital and the emperor was a devout believer in Buddhism that Baoen Temple flourished over the years and became the leader of temples in the world.

A group of people arrived in front of the temple and surrounded it. Then the siege hammer was lifted up and with three bangs the gate of the temple was broken open.

At this time, the monks in the temple thought they were being robbed, so the warrior monk rushed out with a stick, but they were dumbfounded when they came out. This person didn't look like a thief...

At this moment, Xia Lin walked in with his hands behind his back. He completely ignored the monks and went straight to the main hall, while the inspectors beside him followed closely behind him.

"Expel all pilgrims from the temple. Baoen Temple will be closed from today onwards. Anyone who does not leave within the time limit will not be allowed to leave."

"Order!"

After he entered the main hall, he looked up at the golden Buddha, then knelt on the cushion and bowed three times: "The monks are causing trouble, if the Buddha is spirit, he will give me a clear message."

After saying that, he looked up and nodded: "I understand."

Then he stood up and threw his sleeves: "Do it!"

He went straight to the abbot's meditation room. On the way, Luo Shixin asked curiously, "Sir, did the Buddha really tell you clearly?"

“Did you see the Buddha’s hand?”

"I saw it."

"What position?"

"Waving your hands?"

Xia Lin nodded: "Waving your hand doesn't mean you are refusing, it means you don't need to say anything."

The two men came to the abbot's meditation room. Xia Lin tilted his head, and Luo Shixin went up and kicked the door open. A smell of alcohol rushed out of the meditation room, and a plump woman in the room screamed, sat up, and covered herself with a blanket.

Next to her, the abbot was still sleeping like a pig. It was obvious that he had been drinking and having sex last night, so he was sleeping soundly today.

"go out."

Xia Lin waved at the woman, then walked forward and kicked the abbot in the chest. The monk was suddenly awakened, holding his chest and wailing in pain.

"Drag it out."

Then Luo Shixin dragged the monk to the open space outside the palace like dragging a pig. At this moment, the monk was naked. When he was pulling him out of the temple, Luo Shixin paused for a moment and pointed at the Buddha and said to the bald monk, "Did you see the Buddha's hand? Waving his hand is not to stop me, but to tell me not to show mercy."

Soon, all the pilgrims in Baoen Temple were driven out, and the monks were surrounded in the open field. Each of them had a confused look on their face until Xia Lin came over.

"Crazy man, you have invaded the Buddhist temple. Do you know what crime you will be punished for?"

The big monk cursed with a red face, but Xia Lin just smiled and took out a booklet: "The abbot of Baoen Temple, Guangxin, used the name of lending to seize 33,557 acres of land from the people in the past seven years, opened a casino around the temple, collected money equivalent to 5,521,728 taels of silver, raped 370 women, and privately minted coins for pilgrims to offer as gifts. Do you admit it?"

"You're talking bullshit! This is slander!"

"fart?"

Xia Lin chuckled and said, "Come here, search for me. And while you're searching, don't just stand there, take this old bald donkey away for me."

Luo Shixin responded and tied up the bald donkey using the method he used to tie up pigs in his hometown, and then dropped it on the 300-year-old tree next to him, like a hairless old monkey.

Xia Lin then walked over, looked up at the bald man, and chuckled, "You have ruined the tranquility of Buddhism. You have ignored all the Buddha's teachings. Tell me, if you have anything else to say, it will be my kindness and righteousness."

"I want to see the prince... I want to see the prince!" "Okay, see the prince."

Xia Lin laughed, but did not give any instructions to his men: "I will tell you what you have to say. Your Highness has been very busy these days, so I am afraid he will not be able to come to see you."

"Little thief, you know that I am His Highness's right-hand man. I have done so many things for His Highness. His Highness will not let you go!"

"Okay, okay." Xia Lin clapped his hands softly. "I'll trust you just once. Someone, pack this bald donkey and send it to the prince."

Soon, the bald donkey was tied up and had a cloth stuffed in his mouth, and then he was put into a large box. While people were still searching the Da Baoen Temple, the box had already been placed in front of the prince.

An inspector clasped his fists and said to the prince, "Your Highness, when Lord Xia was investigating, this man made a lot of false statements, saying that he was your right-hand man. Lord Xia was unsure about what to do, so he sent him here to wait for your Highness to decide."

The one standing next to the prince is Jinlian who was reborn from the Impure World Reincarnation. Although she is now a servant of the Eastern Palace, she and the prince have actually been inseparable for a long time.

She hated this bald donkey almost to the core, but she was just his little toy in the past. But now the roles were reversed. She stood there looking at the bald donkey in the box with resentment in her eyes, and even bit her mouth corners until they bled, but soon Jinlian laughed.

"Take that out of his mouth."

After the thing in the bald donkey's mouth was taken out, his desire to live suddenly came up, and he cried out in a ghostly voice: "Your Highness, Your Highness, you have to make the decision for me... That madman, he... he..."

Seeing that His Highness's face was as gloomy as water, he immediately turned his gaze to Jinlian beside him: "Jinlian, please help me speak to His Highness. If it weren't for me, you would be a whore who has been raped by thousands of men! Why don't you say anything!"

Jinlian's face turned cold after hearing these words, and the prince's expression was not very good either. So the prince asked, "Did you really say that in front of everyone?"

"Your Highness... That lunatic is really hateful. He doesn't even take Your Highness seriously. If I don't tell him, he doesn't know what he will do to me. Your Highness, please make the decision for me."

Just as the prince was about to speak, Jinlian beside him quietly pulled him aside, and the two of them stepped aside.

"Your Highness... This person was extremely stupid. He actually revealed his relationship with you on that occasion. Fortunately, the person who did it was one of our own. Otherwise... otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable."

The Crown Prince was also sweating at this moment. If the person doing things today was not Xia Lin but someone from other princes, then the matter would inevitably be dragged out and magnified again and again. The Crown Prince is the future king. If the king of a country competes with the people for profit and makes huge money, this will make people laugh if it is made public, and it may even seriously threaten the rhythm of his smooth ascension to the throne.

Thinking of this, the prince couldn't help but let out a long sigh: "So what do you think should happen now?"

"Your Highness, of course we will never see the person alive or the body dead." Jinlian rolled her eyes and leaned close to the prince's ear and spoke.

After a long time, no one came to untie the bald donkey. Although he began to feel scared, he still retained a glimmer of hope and started shouting.

After a while, His Highness came out and said seriously, "You are not allowed to show up in public now because of your current status. I will send you somewhere else first, and then find a way to send you to another temple in a few days."

"Thank you, Your Highness. Thank you, Your Highness. Come on..."

Before he finished saying the word "quickly", the box was closed with a clang. Then Bald Donkey felt himself being lifted up. He kept shouting inside but to no avail until he heard the sound of digging outside.

Soon, the box was locked, and then someone heard something fall on the lid of the box, and then there was dead silence for a while...

As the air in the box became less and less, Bald Donkey's consciousness became more and more blurred. He even forgot to ask His Highness which temple he would send him to...

At this moment, Xia Lin also encountered trouble. After all, it was Baoen Temple, one of the royal temples, and there were many dignitaries inside. There was a devout believer who stayed here and refused to leave. He insisted that Xia Lin give an explanation, and said that his family was an official of several ranks, and when Xia Lin came, he would definitely teach him a lesson.

Facing this group of old men and women, Xia Lin was not anxious. He just sat there and said with a smile: "Don't worry, elders. Since everyone is unwilling to leave, how about this? You can register the names of each household, and I will send someone to send a letter to your family members to report that they are safe. What do you think?"

Seeing Xia Lin being so polite, the families of these high-ranking officials thought he was frightened and signed the names of their sons and nephews very readily.

After receiving the list, Xia Lin patted the tree trunk and stood up, handing the paper to Luo Shixin next to him: "Call out the names one by one, be polite."

"Okay, I'll do it right away!"

Luo Shixin was polite. Not hitting anyone was very polite. No matter what official you were, what rank you were, or what position you held, he would just kick the gatekeeper away, and then he opened the door in a few moves. He held the note and shouted, "Fifth-rank clerk Chen Zuofeng, your mother is obstructing the work of the Inspection Department. Do you want to take her back yourself or do you want us to carry her back for you? My master said that he is very patient with the elderly, but he has no patience with you."

Then the next one...

For a while, the whole Jinling City was in chaos, with gongs and drums beating loudly, causing all the civil and military officials to complain. But it was such a big deal, they couldn't just let their old man mess around...
