Chapter 1116 Report it to the authorities!
Hearing the noise, they went over to see what was going on. After the elderly couple recounted the whole story, they realized that their son had gone missing in the temple.
The elderly couple said again, "My precious child got lost in your temple! Please give him back!"
The young monk quickly said, "Don't slander us, benefactor. Who is your treasure? How could he have gotten lost in the temple?"
"He lost it at the Living Buddha Temple, give me back my treasure..."
"Give me back my treasure! What kind of temple is this? My treasure is here!"
The couple cried themselves to death at the entrance of the Buddhist temple, and more and more people came to watch the spectacle.
Jiang Fenghua said, "How could someone get lost in a temple? How old is that! Madam, are you sure your child got lost at the Living Buddha Temple?"
The old woman said, "My son is twenty-three years old. He came to the Living Buddha Temple to burn incense and pray for fame and fortune, but he has never returned. He got lost at the Living Buddha Temple."
"You must return my son. If you don't, I won't leave."
Seeing that things had escalated, the little monk quickly ran to the backyard.
Gongsun Lan also said, "It's a temple, a place to worship Buddha. How could they kidnap your child? If you really can't find them, report it to the authorities!"
Someone chimed in, "That's right! Let's report it to the authorities!"
These words were like a wake-up call, and Yue Anying immediately realized, "Report to the authorities, we should report to the authorities."
Jiangzhou is under Wu Yirong's control. Wu Yirong is a member of the Yue family. If Hongbao is lost at the Living Buddha Temple, she should report it to the authorities. She wants to see where these monks have hidden Qian Shun and Hongbao.
As the situation escalated, Yue Anying became even more enraged and took the lead in causing a disturbance.
A monk with a weapon stepped forward to stop her, and her people drew their swords to fight back, making the situation impossible to resolve.
Jiang Fenghua and the others stood quietly to the side watching the show. They had originally planned to sneak into the Living Buddha Temple at night, as there must be some secrets hidden inside.
Since there were many of them, they received more incense money, and naturally filled the entire east wing.
Just then, Qian Shun sneaked into the east wing and thought it best to wait and see. Someone would come looking for them at dawn, and they could add fuel to the fire and make a scene at the Living Buddha Temple.
The young monks would naturally slip up.
Yue Anying was furious. "Search the temple! Even if you have to turn the temple upside down, find the person!"
Just then, the abbot arrived, saying, "Amitabha, please calm down, benefactor. Is there some misunderstanding?"
“It’s a misunderstanding. The person got lost in your temple. How can it be a misunderstanding? You heartless temple. If you don’t want people to know, then don’t do it in the first place.” These words were spoken by Yue Anying.
Abbot Pudu was so angry that his eyes gleamed. "Where did this shrew come from? The Living Buddha Temple is a Buddhist place, and it cannot tolerate your defilement. All of you, get out!"
Upon seeing this, the elderly couple cried out, "Murder! People are being beaten! Help! Young lady, you are such a kind and beautiful person, please help us! Otherwise, we ordinary people will have no way to survive. My son was lost in here. Did they hide him?"
Yue Anying said, "Don't worry, I am a person sent by Heaven to punish evil people. Your son was lost at the Living Buddha Temple, and I will definitely make them hand him over."
Her ruby must still be here.
She said coldly, "Craftsman's sword, for me to forge! Anyone who dares to stop me will be killed without mercy."
"What a kind girl!" The old couple could only laugh. The Yuezhi women were like cannons, ready to explode at any moment!
This is going to be quite a show at the Living Buddha Temple!
"Miss doesn't even consider these old bald monks worthy of her attention." Her golden toad wasn't around, otherwise it would have eaten all their eyeballs.
Pudu wasn't a real monk either; he was a ruthless killer and had never been treated like this by a woman. He said coldly, "Men, seize her."
At this moment, the craftsman's sword was no pushover; he knocked the monk to the ground in just a few moves.
However, the number of monks in the temple increased, and the sticks they carried were not ordinary sticks.
There were other worshippers in the temple, but they all backed away when they saw the fight break out. Some people were talking about it, saying, "The Living Buddha Temple is very popular and has a good reputation. Everyone comes here to burn incense and worship Buddha. How can they hide people? If your son went missing, why don't you report it to the authorities instead of coming to the temple to cause trouble?"
“That’s right! Abbot Pudu even exorcised a demon for my child. His Taoist magic is profound, how could he harm people?”
"Is this girl in white sick? She's shouting for violence without even understanding the truth, disturbing the peace of the Buddhist temple."
"In Jiangzhou, only the Living Buddha Temple has the most prosperous incense offerings. They're trying to smear the temple!"
"Report it to the authorities!"
Someone else said, "Yes, report it to the authorities..."
With worshippers present, Pudu could not possibly reveal his true ferocity. "Amitabha, the Buddha said that one should be lenient when possible. If you benefactors wish to leave on your own, this old monk will not hold it against you."
The elderly couple wouldn't listen to him. "My son was lost in the temple. You think you can just get away with this by giving him back? No way! Go report this to the authorities!"
Yue Anying said, "I support reporting this to the authorities. I don't believe that a small temple can cause such a huge upheaval. We must search it and find out the secrets it holds. In your opinion, this is not a Living Buddha Temple, but a ghost temple. It's filled with eerie atmosphere."
Just as Pudu was about to lose his temper, Jiang Fenghua stepped forward to mediate. "Miss Aying, we all know you are worried about the couple losing their child. I believe that the Living Buddha Temple is definitely not like what you said. There are Bodhisattvas everywhere here, how could they hide their son? If you don't believe me, then take people to search and let everyone judge and clear the Living Buddha Temple's name."
"Of course I'll take people to search," she said. "Young Master Jiang, will you come with me?"
Jiang Fenghua said, "Let the adults come together. After all, we are pilgrims of the Living Buddha Temple. If we all come together, there will be no problem. The Living Buddha Temple is so big, and there is strength in numbers."
“Let’s all do it together,” Yue Anying said.
Pudu's eyes were dark. With so many people in front of him, he found a young monk and whispered, "Go and inform Prefect Wu that a madwoman has come to the temple. Tell him to bring his soldiers to arrest her."
He simply didn't believe that anyone could really find anything out of their territory.
Gongsun Ling and Xun Yao acted quickly. They searched the entire temple but found no secret entrance. However, Yue Anying's people happened to discover the skeletons on the back mountain.
Yue Anying angrily said, "How can there be human bones in a temple? Is this a temple or a den of cannibals?"
"Old woman, has your son also turned into bones?"
The old woman said, "Thank you for your help, young lady. My son has only been missing for half a month. Even if he were dead, he wouldn't have turned into bones so quickly. These bones look like he's been dead for several years."
"How could there be bones in a temple?" someone asked again.
Pudu immediately understood upon seeing the skeletons: someone had broken into the burial ground on the back mountain.
who is it?
He looked in the direction of Jiang Fenghua, Yue Anying, and the others, sensing that they were up to no good.
His eyes turned cold; it seemed that no one would be able to leave the temple today.
If you choose to forge your own path to hell when there's a way to heaven, then don't blame me for being ruthless.
He didn't know that his good days were coming to an end.
