The dream of "Tenderness of Iron Hands" begins in Tokyo

Chapter 19: Love in the 4 Seas: Annihilating Tianzhu Mountain

============================================

When entering the temple to worship the Buddha and burn incense, the attire must be dignified and solemn, so before entering the mountain gate, Ah Yuan put on the brocade cloak embroidered with white background for Lu Mengyun.The two followed the crowd through the Hall of Heavenly Kings and entered the Hall of Yuantong to offer incense.

The difference between this Tianzhu Temple and other temples is the statues of Guanyin Bodhisattva enshrined in Yuantong Hall.Among them, the most famous one is the statue of Avalokitesvara in white clothes carved by King Qian of Wuyue in the Five Dynasties and dreaming of a man in white clothes. It is said that praying for marriage is the most effective.

Lu Mengyun prostrated herself under the seat of the Bodhisattva, expressing her sincere gratitude.Because she felt that she was able to reap such a happy relationship in just three months because she must have been blessed by the Bodhisattva.Then she paid homage to each Guanyin one by one, especially praying in front of the Thousand-Handed Guanyin statue that the Bodhisattva can cast spells and grant divine power, and bless Brother Tie Shou to catch the murderer safely and smoothly to complete the mission as soon as possible.

Tie Shou followed the little junior sister neither far nor near, always paying attention to everyone who approached her, but there were a few men who stared lewdly at the beauty.But after paying attention to Yang Li for a while, he found that most of them were ordinary people traveling together.Besides, Xueshancha's behavior style is unlikely to be so blatant, and gradually the two of them relaxed a bit.

Ah Yuan helped Lu Mengyun out of the Yuantong Hall, and walked up the stairs along the west veranda to the Daxiong Hall.This Tianzhu Temple is built on the mountain, and the steps are a bit high and steep. Walking in front of Lu Mengyun is a gray-haired old lady, carrying a yellow cloth bag for burning incense. Panting and climbing, she suddenly heard "Ouch", her feet slipped, and she fell heavily to the ground.

Seeing this, Lu Mengyun hurried forward to help her, and asked, "Ma'am, do you feel any pain?"

"Oh, this waist seems to be sprained." The old lady stroked her lower back with a painful look on her face.

"Then sit down and rest for a while." Lu Mengyun and A Yuan quickly helped her to sit on the bench by the porch, and asked, "Auntie, are you alone? Is there any family members coming with you?"

"I'm here to see my son. He is a monk in this monastery. Today we agreed to go to the monk's room to find him."

"Oh, then we'll take you there."

"Thank you, girl! I really met a kind-hearted person! Let me sit for a while to catch my breath. I only have half my life left after climbing."

Tie Shou could see clearly from below, but he couldn't hear what they were talking about. Just as he was about to get closer, he heard a woman's shrill screams suddenly sounded from the east corridor.

"Come on! Help! Help my child!"

All of a sudden, everyone in the court looked towards the cry.

I saw a tall and thin young man holding a baby in his hands, with his clothes half open and his hair disheveled, he ran away from the crowd and ran down the steps. A woman behind him was stumbling and chasing him, crying, "Help me!" Stop him!"

But when the people around saw the man's crazy appearance, they were so frightened that they avoided him, and no one dared to stop him.The man was so fast that he ran down the porch in a blink of an eye, ran straight to the lotus pond in the courtyard, and yelled at the woman: "You bitch, I told you to steal a man, see if I don't drown this bastard!" !” As he spoke, he lifted up the crying baby in his hand, and threw it into the pool.

Almost everyone exclaimed in unison.

In the midst of a crisis, a figure flashed past, someone skimmed across the water, grabbed the baby's swaddle with his left hand, and pressed the two fingers of his right hand on the wall of the pool lightly, using his strength to fly up, his tall body landed firmly on the edge of the pool.He yelled angrily, "You bastard! How dare you commit crimes in public!"

But it was Iron Hand who saved the child.He was about to walk up the verandah, and wanted to get closer to Lu Mengyun and the others, but seeing that the incident happened in a hurry and there was no one to help, he flew over to save the child without thinking.

The crowd surrounded him all of a sudden, scolding the man loudly, and some even grabbed the hem of the man's clothes angrily and wanted to beat him.Tie Shou held the baby in one hand, but on the other hand, he was afraid of killing people due to the anger of the crowd, and wanted to dissuade them from dragging.The scene was a little chaotic for a while.

After a while, the woman finally squeezed through the crowd to hold the child, weeping bitterly. While thanking the iron hand, she also shouted, begging people not to hit her man: "Don't hit! Don't hit! My family official He's sick."

In the midst of the commotion, Wang Yi, who was on duty outside the mountain gate, finally rushed over with the yamen servants.When everyone saw the official coming, they all avoided.

Seeing that the situation was under control, Tie Shou immediately withdrew and went back to look for Lu Mengyun, but when he looked up, he saw no one in the west corridor. He was startled, thinking that they were also coming down to watch the fun, but after searching around for a long time, they could not be found.

For some reason, Tie Shou felt an inexplicable panic in his heart, he leaped up to the platform of the Grand Hall of Great Heroes, and looked around anxiously, only to see Yang Li leaning against the door of the Moon Cave on the west side of the platform.

"Brother Yang, where are Miss Lu and the others?" Tie Shou asked anxiously.

"Inside." Yang Li pointed to the doorway, and smiled embarrassedly: "They should have accompanied the old woman to the toilet. I can't follow in."

Seeing that there was indeed a wooden sign beside the door with the word "Xueyin" written on it, Tie Shou nodded his head at ease, and went back to the center of the platform to look down. He saw that Wang Yi had dispersed the crowd and detained the couple. The two walked out, and the turmoil seemed to have subsided.But after about a cup of tea, before Lu Mengyun and the others came out, Tie Shou felt something was wrong, he didn't want to wait any longer, and called Yang Li to go in together.

Turning left inside the door is a small stone path that winds down, and a dozen steps away is the toilet.Tie Shou saw that there was an old man cleaning the door, who should be a lay handyman hired by the monastery, so he hurried forward and asked, "Old man, do you dare to ask, there are three female guests going in to use the toilet?"

"Ladies? No."

"Are you sure?"

"I said no, definitely not. There are very few women who come to the toilet. If there are, I will definitely remember. I haven't left since I was busy this morning."

"But I clearly watched them enter this door." Yang Li on the side said anxiously.

"You don't have to go to the toilet when you enter this door, maybe you go to the monk's room opposite." The old man raised his hand and pointed upwards.

Tie Shou looked in the direction of his finger, but saw that there was really a small door on the right side of the moon cave door, which was hidden under a clump of green bamboos.Seeing that the door seemed to be half open, the two hurried over, pushed the door open and rushed in.

Inside the gate is a large courtyard, with three rows of bungalows built along the mountain wall, but it turned out to be the dormitory for the monks in this temple.The main entrance of the yard is on the east side, and it seems to be locked. This small door is just a side door, probably for the convenience of going to the toilet.At this moment, the courtyard was silent, and there was no one to be seen. Because today is the birthday of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, the monks of the Hesi Temple are performing rituals in the main hall.

Tie Shou signaled Yang Li to silence, and the two of them started to check each room separately with light steps.After a while, Yang Li shouted from behind, "Second Master, come quickly!"

Hearing the sound, Tie Shou hurried over, only to see Yang Li standing at the door of a monk's room, his face paled in shock.

I saw that the two doors of the room were open, and there was a woman lying on the ground not far from the threshold in the room, and it seemed that the clothes were the little girl A Yuan.Tie Shou hurriedly approached and was about to help her, when he took a closer look, he couldn't help feeling sad.

Ah Yuan was lying on the ground with his back facing the sky, his face was black and blue, his eyes were wide open, and he was completely out of breath.The iron hand reached out to touch her neck, but there was no pulse.Looking around again, there was a golden hairpin on the ground, he recognized it as Lu Mengyun's hidden weapon jewelry, picked it up and saw that the organ had not been moved, it was obviously never used.Tie Shou thought to himself that it must be the little junior sister who found out the situation and wanted to take action, but she had already caught the opponent's sneak attack first.He was in a turmoil for a moment, feeling sad and angry, and smashed the square bricks with his fist on the ground.

Standing on the side, Yang Li saw that Tie Shou's face was ashen, with a faint murderous look, and he was a little scared.Because he felt that the second master Tie had always been calm and calm, with a demeanor that remained unchanged before the collapse of Mount Tai, and this was the first time he had seen this appearance.He tremblingly asked in a low voice: "Second...Second Lord, I...shall I go and call Mr. Wang to arrest me?"

Tieshou closed his eyes, calmed down a little, and said in a deep voice: "Yes. Let him bring a few people over quietly. Remember that there are so many people today, and you must not disturb the people outside, so as not to cause panic and chaos."

Yang Li responded and ran out hurriedly.Not long after, Wang Yi brought four or five plainclothes policemen in with a solemn expression, and carefully covered them up.I was shocked when I saw the scene.

"Second Master, how...how did this happen? Where's Miss Lu?"

"I underestimated the enemy! I really didn't expect this villain to be so bold, he dared to commit murder in broad daylight! This guy pretended to be an old woman and deliberately fell to deceive Miss Lu's sympathy, and then tricked them both here to fight .I just checked all the monks' houses one by one, but I didn't find my junior sister...presumably he was kidnapped." Tie Shou's tone was full of unconcealable worry and anxiety.

Wang Yi said in shock: "Abducted? But there are no other exits here except for those two doors? I just checked, and the gate of this courtyard is locked from the outside, and it is locked well. Yang Li has been guarding the exit of the side door, If we go out, two people this big will definitely be able to see it."

"It's really strange!" Tie Shou frowned and said, "I just jumped up to the courtyard wall to see it. Outside is the main road of the mountain road. At the moment, it is full of stalls and people. If he crosses the wall with a person who can't move on his back, he will definitely be found. "Yang Li, first go ask the guards around the monastery if they found any abnormalities."

Yang Li immediately led a policeman to lead him away.Wang Yi also hurriedly ordered the other two to quickly order the guards at the key passes below the mountain to pay close attention to whether there were any suspicious pedestrians or carriages carrying the unconscious woman.

The sun is shining today, the sky is clear, and there are no footprints with reference value on the ground. Tieshou is extremely anxious but helpless.At this moment, a gust of spring breeze blew, blowing the fragrance of ylang ylang lingering in the room to Tie Shou's nose. He suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and turned to Wang Yi and said, "Hurry up! Bring a little greyhound over there!"

When the little gray dog ​​was brought to Shangtianzhu Temple, it was nearly Youshi, and the sun was setting, and the pilgrims and tourists inside and outside the temple gradually dispersed.At this time Xu Zhu had also heard the news and arrived. He personally met the abbot of the temple, Master Hongze, explained the reason and asked for the temporary closure of the monk's room and no entry.Hongze was also shocked when he heard that Master Zhizhou said that there was a murder case in the temple. He immediately replied that fortunately, today's Dharma conference will be late at night, and the monks will not come back to rest for a while.

Xiao Hui naturally recognized Tie Shou, and when she saw him, she rushed towards him and wagged her tail vigorously.Tie Shou picked up the puppy, stroked its little head, and said softly with a little sadness: "Xiao Hui, your master...Miss Yun was captured by the villains, and it depends on your ability to find her."

Tie Shou led the dog into the scene of the murder, let it sniff around A Yuan's body for a while, let it smell Lu Mengyun's gold hairpin and the Ylang-ylang cosmetic oil one by one, and then said loudly: "Little Hui! , go! Find Miss Yun quickly!"

The little dog seemed to understand what he said, jumped out of the room, lowered its head and sniffed all the way, and walked slowly towards the edge of the cliff behind the house.

After a while, Xiao Hui stopped by a big rock under the cliff behind the courtyard, raised his head and barked repeatedly.Tie Shou hurried to its side and looked up.I saw that the cliff was about ten feet high. Although it was straight and steep, it was covered with weeds and vines. One of the thicker vines obviously showed signs of being pulled. stone.

"It turned out to be going up!" Tie Shou said, and he turned around and asked Wang Yi, "Do you know what's up there?"

"Above... it seems to be the Buddhist scriptures pavilion." Wang Yi looked up.

"I have to go up and have a look, hurry up and invite the master abbot." Tie Shou said, picked up Xiao Hui and ran out quickly.
