Chapter 97

Zhang Chenghu stretched out his finger to Ye Qingqing, and said loudly, "It's him, he did it!"

Hearing Zhang Chenghu's identification, Jing Si froze for a moment, then turned to look at Ye Qingqing.

Ye Qingqing had expected that Zhang Chenghu would identify him, so he didn't panic, just smiled lightly, but didn't answer.

Jing Si frowned, "Master Ye, did you hear what Zhang Chenghu said?"

Ye Qingqing nodded, "I heard that. Does Master Jing Si also think that I, a weak scholar, did it?"

When Ye Qingqing said this sentence, he purposely said the words "weak and unbearable" very clearly, which has already attracted Jing Si's attention.

Sure enough, after hearing Ye Qingsi's words, Jing Si frowned even tighter, turned her head to look at Zhang Chenghu, clasped her hands together.

"Amitabha, goodness, goodness, Mr. Ye is just a scholar, how can he do such a thing?"

Speaking of this, Jing Si's tone paused for a while, but then, without waiting for Zhang Chenghu to answer his own words, he continued on his own.

"Benefactor, if you don't tell the truth again, don't blame the poor monk for being rude!"

Seeing this, Jing Nian on the side said coldly, "Brother, the matter is urgent, I think it's better to use some tricks on them before asking?"

Hearing Jing Nian's words, Li Dali suddenly trembled with anxiety, and hurriedly said loudly.

"We didn't lie, it was really that kid who did it."

Having said that, Li Dali hastily turned his head to look at Zhang Chenghu, "Old Zhang, why don't you speak quickly..."

Hearing this, Zhang Chenghu hurriedly said loudly, "This kid really did it. Yesterday, when I was watching him outside the small gate of Ci'an Temple, I saw that he hid all the gold boxes.

Really, I won't lie to you, this kid really did it. "

Jing Si sighed, "The benefactor still refuses to tell the truth. Ye Qingqing neither knows martial arts nor is his physique very strong. How could he do such a thing?"

Speaking of this, Jing Si's tone paused, turned her head to look at Jing Nian, and said in a deep voice, "Junior Brother, it seems that what you said is right, if you don't use some means, they won't tell the truth!"

Hearing this, Jing Nian understood immediately, snorted coldly, reached out and rolled up the sleeves of his robe, and was about to make a move when Zhang Chenghu saw that something was wrong, he quickly stretched out his finger and pointed to Jing Wu who was silent with his head down, and said loudly.

"And the monk, Ye Qingqing and the monk made it together. I can see clearly that the two of them took out those boxes together!"

Hearing Zhang Chenghu's words, Jing Si's face suddenly darkened, she turned her head to look at Jing Wu, and shouted sharply.

"Jing Wu, did you do it?"

Hearing Jing Si's shout and question, Jing Wu was startled immediately, and hurriedly waved his hands, wanting to defend himself, but he was simple by nature, and wanted to tell a few lies, it was really difficult for him.

Seeing that Jing Wu was speechless, Ye Qingqing could only secretly sigh that this guy was honest, and hurriedly said loudly.

"Jingwu, I really didn't expect you to be this kind of person. Master Yuzhao asked you to protect me, but I didn't expect that while protecting me, you still have time to do this kind of thing..."

Having said that, Ye Qingqing paused, turned his head to look at Jing Si, blinked his eyes, and muttered to himself with some doubts.

"No, since I didn't steal anything, and Jing Wu was protecting me every step of the way, how could he have time to steal anything?"

Speaking of this, Ye Qingqing suddenly looked up at Jingwu, and asked loudly, "Jingwu, have you stayed with me all day long, basically never leaving my side!"

Hearing Ye Qingqing's gentle words, Jing Wu immediately clasped his hands together, "Amitabha, Young Master Ye, Master asked me to protect you, how could I leave your side?"

Ye Qingyi nodded, turned his head to look at Jing Si, and asked suspiciously, "Master Jing Si, Jing Wu has never left my side. I can also testify to this point, unless I stole the things. Otherwise, Jing Wu is It’s impossible to steal things, right?”

Seeing Jing Wu's somewhat panicked expression, Jing Si was somewhat puzzled.

Everyone has lived in Ci'an Temple for so many years, Jing Si is very clear about what kind of person Jing Wu is.

Hearing Ye Qingqing's question, Jing Si nodded subconsciously, turned to look at Zhang Chenghu, and shouted sharply, "Since you said that Mr. Ye and my junior brother did it, what evidence do you have?"

Hearing the evidence, Zhang Chenghu froze for a moment, unable to answer for a moment.

The best evidence is of course the gold, but the gold has been transferred away by myself and Li Dali, so naturally there is no evidence!
Seeing that Zhang Chenghu didn't speak, Jing Nian suddenly flickered, and before Li Dali could react, she had already tapped on his back.

After hitting Li Dali, Jing Nian stepped back quickly, and came to Li Dali, clasping her hands together.

"Amitabha, benefactor, you have been hit by the broken tendon finger of the poor monk. After 7 breaths, you will feel pain in your arm, but don't panic, it's just a sign that the meridian of your arm is about to break. One finger only used [-]% of your true strength, I hope you will feel repentant and tell the truth after experiencing the feeling of broken tendon and finger."

As soon as Jing Nian finished speaking, Li Dali suddenly felt some pain in his left arm. At first, it was just a swelling pain, but gradually, it became like a needle prick. The pain flooded into Li Dali's mind, and he couldn't bear it any longer. He grabbed his arm and kept howling.

"Stop it..., stop it, it hurts me..., stop it..., stop it..., please..., I can't stand it..."

Zhang Chenghu who was on the side was startled when he saw Li Dali's miserable state. He wanted to go to help, but was stopped by two monks.

Zhang Chenghu was anxious, so he couldn't care less, he hurriedly raised his hand, and shouted sharply, "Get out of here!"

While speaking, Zhang Chenghu's raised hand was already on a monk's shoulder, and he wanted to push him away.

The monk just shifted his shoulder slightly, and avoided Zhang Chenghu's hand. Immediately, he slammed out his right fist, and Zhang Chenghu couldn't wait to prevent it, and hit him in the ribs.

"what!"

Zhang Chenghu's face turned pale from the pain, and he bent over and fell to the ground like a big shrimp, screaming incessantly.

For Zhang Chenghu who was lying on the ground and screaming, Jing Nian ignored him, but turned to look at Li Dali, clasped his hands together, "Amitabha, goodness, goodness, as long as the benefactor tells the truth, the poor monk will immediately relieve the benefactor's pain."

Hearing that the pain could be relieved, Li Dali, who was screaming, immediately nodded and shouted in a trembling voice.

"Stop it..., I said..., stop...."

Hearing what Li Dali was about to say, the figure of Jing Nian flashed again, pointing at Li Dali's back all the time.

Back in front of Li Dali, Jing Nian put his hands together again, "Benefactor, can we talk this time?"

Although Jing Nian released Li Dali's restraint, the pain did not go away so easily.

Li Dali clutched his aching arm and gasped for breath. After a while, he suddenly raised his head to look at Jing Nian, and shouted sharply.

"Old monk, do you know who we are?"

After hearing Li Dali's words, Jing Nian was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that Li Dali would still want to blackmail him at such a time.

"Amitabha, goodness, goodness, the poor monk doesn't care who the donor is, the poor monk only wants my things."

"Humph!"

"Old monk, let me tell you, we are from the Ji'an Palace. If you are sensible, let us go quickly. Otherwise, when our little king knows about this, I am afraid that even your temple will be demolished for you." .”

"Prince Ji'an's Mansion?"

After hearing Li Dali's words, Jing Nian was stunned for a moment, "You are from Ji'an Palace? Really?"

Li Dali sneered, panting, took out a sign from his waist, and shouted sharply, "Did you see, we are both from the Ji'an Palace, if you offended us today, just wait for our little prince to settle the score with you !"

Jing Nian took the waist badge, looked carefully, then walked quickly to Jing Si's side, handed the badge over, and said in a low voice.

"Brother, it's really the brand of Prince Ji'an's Mansion, what do you think?"

Seeing the nervous appearance of Jing Si and Jing Nian, Li Dali felt complacent again and snorted coldly.

"I advise you to be more honest and obediently help us leave. If you offend our little prince, I think your monastery may not be able to keep it."

Jing Si looked at the sign in her hand, pondered for a moment, then slowly raised her head to look at Li Dali, and asked slowly.

"Is it the little prince's intention for you to do this?"

Hearing Jing Si's question, Li Dali was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, "No!"

Hearing Li Dali's answer, Jing Si's face turned cold, "That is to say, this is not the mastermind of the young prince, but the two of you did it behind the back of the young prince?"

Hearing this, Li Dali waved his hand hastily, then pointed at Ye Qingqing, and said loudly, "You old monk, I already told you that he and that monk did it, why are you still entangled!"

Jing Si once again turned to look at Ye Qingqing in doubt, "Master Ye..."

Jing Nian didn't wait for Jing Si to finish speaking, and said, "Brother, I think it's better not to talk nonsense, just show him some strength, and let him know what will happen if you don't talk!"

Seeing that Jing Nian rolled up her sleeves and was about to make a move again, Ye Qingyi sighed, turned to look at Jing Si, and said slowly.

"Master Jingsi, it's actually very simple to solve the case, so why bother?"

After hearing Ye Qingqing's words, Jing Si's eyes lit up immediately, and she hurriedly asked, "Master Ye, do you have a solution?"

Ye Qingqing nodded, "Master Jingsi, although I don't know what you lost, but judging by your appearance, it should be very important, right?"

Jing Si nodded, "It's very important, if we don't find those things, my master will definitely punish us."

Ye Qingli nodded, "Since the thing is so important, it must be hidden in a place where no one can find it?"

Jing Si nodded, but said nothing.

Ye Qingqing continued, "Although the hiding place is hidden, as long as you put in some effort, you will be able to find it."

Speaking of this, Ye Qingqing paused before continuing, "What I want to say is, since things are so important, you should set up various organs in the places where you hide things to protect those things."

Hearing Ye Qingqing's words, Jing thought about the three iron gates and nodded.

Ye Qingyi smiled and clapped his hands, "Since you have set up traps, you have to think about who can open the traps you set up?"

Ye Qingqing turned around and pointed at Jingwu, and asked loudly, "Master Jingsi, do you think Jingwu can open your mechanism?"

Jing Si glanced at Jing Wu who was standing still, and shook her head without hesitation, "Can't?"

Hearing this, Ye Qingqing pointed at his nose, "Master Jingsi, do you think that a scholar like me who studies at home every day can open the mechanisms you carefully set up?"

Hearing Ye Qingqing's words, Jing Si froze for a moment, but didn't answer immediately.

Although there is no harmful mechanism in the secret room, the three iron doors have been found to be locked by two skilled craftsmen.

The two locks on each iron door were set by these two skilled craftsmen.

Even if these two skilled craftsmen are allowed to pick the lock separately, it may not be so easy to open.

What's more, these two skilled craftsmen, after designing the three iron gates, have already been sent to the west to enjoy their blessings.

Moreover, the keys to these two locks were carried by Jing Si and Jing Nian respectively. To open any iron door, both of them needed to be present at the same time.

Even if Jing Si went alone, with only one key, it was impossible to open any iron door.

The most important thing is that the lock on the door has not been broken by anyone, that is to say, someone unlocked it to get in.

The Mr. Ye in front of him is wearing a long gown and has a thin body. He said that he is a scholar who has studied hard for 10 years, which is absolutely true.

Can such a person really open those two locks?
Thinking of this, Jing Si silently shook her head.

Seeing Jing Si shaking her head, Ye Qingqing sneered in her heart, and hurriedly said.

"Master Jingsi, think about it, I haven't been in the rivers and lakes for many years, it should be impossible to break the mechanism you set up..."

Speaking of this, Ye Qingyi turned his head to look at Li Dali, then turned his head to look at Jing Si, and said in a low voice.

"Master Jingsi, look at these two guys, it seems that they have been in the rivers and lakes for many years, and they know a little bit of lockpicking skills. It shouldn't be surprising, right?"

Jing Si nodded subconsciously, turned her head suddenly to look at Li Dali, and shouted sharply.

"I don't care who you are, since you have taken my things, quickly bring them back to me, or else, I will let you taste the power of broken tendons and fingers!"

Li Dali sneered, "Old monk, don't scare me, we are from the palace of King Ji'an, once we report this matter to the young prince, I don't need to tell you the consequences, I'm afraid you will understand it!"

After hearing Li Dali's words, Jing Si turned her head and winked at Jing Nian.

After thinking quietly, he sneered and walked towards Li Dali.

Seeing Jing Nian walking towards him, recalling the severe pain just now, Li Dali took a step back guiltily, and asked in a trembling voice.

"What are you going to do? We are the young prince's people. Don't come here. If you come here, I will tell the young prince about it..."

Jing Nian came to Li Dali, a smirk appeared on the corner of her mouth, "Li Dali, I don't care who you are, I will ask you again now, whether to take the things out or not?"

Hearing Jing Nian's words, before Li Dali could speak, Zhang Chenghu hurriedly endured the pain in his stomach, stood up staggeringly, Ye Qingqing stretched out his fingers, and said loudly.

"I have evidence. Ye Qingyi took the things. I really have evidence. When I was on the tree that day, I saw Ye Qingyi move those boxes to a pit behind Ci'an Temple."
