Next, Lu Xiaofeng and Ye Kai lay on the same bed again, but they didn't take off their clothes, and they didn't cover their quilts. Like two old friends who have known each other for many years, they talked about many interesting things, and then they closed their eyes and fell asleep. .

With Lu Xiaofeng lying next to him, Ye Kai slept comfortably for the rest of the night, and he never fell asleep again.

Unexpectedly, the next day, a monk informed them to meet several Dharma protectors in the monastery.

Ye Kai laughed and said, "Why didn't you go to meet the abbot, but to meet the Master Dharma Protector?"

The monk who informed them said with some dodge eyes: "I don't know, but I will know when the benefactor has gone."

Ye Kai frowned slightly, then looked at Lu Xiaofeng calmly, and found that his expression was also somewhat puzzled.

"Do you know these Dharma protector masters in Shaolin Temple?"

Lu Xiaofeng said: "I don't know, I only know two monks, one is the honest monk, and the other is the bitter melon monk, unfortunately they are not here."

Ye Kai didn't ask any more questions, but just followed the monk leading the way to a certain monastery. Along the way, he found that the monks everywhere looked normal, and everything in the monastery was orderly, and it didn't seem like any major incident had happened.

But the calmer he became, the more restless his heart became, like a river was tossing the sea, the waves beat up one after another, making his chest feel a little tight.

They finally arrived, and waiting for them in the monastery were the head abbot and several Dharma protectors.

After they saw Lu Xiaofeng and Ye Kai, they all looked solemn, they didn't speak or smile, there seemed to be a dark cloud that couldn't be dispelled between their eyebrows, and they couldn't seem to get close to each other.

They didn't speak, Lu Xiaofeng asked: "A few masters have encountered some troubles?"

The abbot sighed and said, "Master Tie Yi died last night."

Both Lu Xiaofeng and Ye Kai were taken aback, they asked in unison: "How did he die?"

The abbot is talking about death, not passing away, naturally because there is something hidden in it.

The abbot said: "I was playing chess with Tie Yi in the house last night. After three games, I wanted to go out for a walk, while Tie Yi stayed in my room to study the game. When I came back, I found that he had been killed by someone. Killed by the chessboard."

Lu Xiaofeng said: "The person who died was Tie Yi, but the room belonged to you, the abbot. It means that the murderer originally wanted to kill you, but he killed Master Tie Yi by mistake."

The abbot had a bit of shame on his face, as if he felt extremely sorry for Tie Yi's death.

But he quickly cleared up his emotions and continued: "Tie Yi's martial arts skills are extremely high, and the person who killed him must also be a top expert."

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Dharma protector, what did you discover?"

The abbot said: "They didn't find any suspicious person, nor did they find anyone trying to sneak out of Shaolin Temple."

Lu Xiaofeng said: "In other words, this person must still be in the temple."

The abbot said: "So you should know why I called you here."

Lu Xiaofeng said: "If I don't know, then I shouldn't be called Lu Xiaofeng, but Lu Xiaoji."

Ye Kai couldn't help sighing: "I didn't expect you to be able to escape the fate of investigating cases for others no matter where you go."

Lu Xiaofeng also sighed: "Fortunately, I'm not alone this time."

Ye Kai said: "A person like you will never be alone anywhere."

One of the guardian elders coughed and interrupted their conversation, then pointed to a room and said, "Master Tieyi's body is inside."

Lu Xiaofeng and Ye Kai were about to go in to investigate, but the Dharma Protector suddenly coughed again.

Then he suddenly gave Ye Kai a sharp look, as if the other party was a Shura ghost crawling out of the ground.

Then he said: "Lu Xiaofeng can go in, but you can't."

Lu Xiaofeng frowned and said, "What do you mean by that, Master? Ye Kai is my friend."

The protector master only said: "Let me remind Benefactor Lu that Master Tie Yi was hit on the acupuncture points first, and then a throwing knife was stuck in his throat."

As soon as he mentioned the flying knife, he looked at Ye Kai with a more dignified look, obviously hearing the rumors about Ye Gucheng's flying knife in the Jianghu.

The abbot was slightly dissatisfied and said: "No idiot, don't be rude. If a murderer is good at using a flying knife, he can kill him with a single knife. Why do you need to touch the heavy hole on the iron clothes first, and then use the flying knife? Isn't it unnecessary?"

Wu Chi didn't dare to say more, Elder Wu Xiu stood up and said: "The murderer did this, perhaps deliberately to make people think that he is not good at using throwing knives, so as to remove the suspicion."

This went around and around, but it still went around Ye Kai.

Elder Wujie has a different opinion: "It is also possible that the murderer wanted to blame others, so he deliberately used the flying knife, so that we would be suspicious of those who entered the temple with flying knives."

Ye Kai's thinking was similar to his, and he also vaguely got some information from the words of the masters.

This murderer didn't kill people sooner or later, but waited for them to enter the temple before killing people, and he used flying knives. If he didn't even notice his intentions, he would have died thousands of times already.

But it doesn't matter, this person's pressing of the heavy acupuncture point revealed that he is not good at using throwing knives, but good at fingering.The other party was able to hide in the temple without being noticed, so he shouldn't have devised such a clumsy frame.Could it be that he has another purpose?

He believed that Abbot Shaolin would not wrong anyone, and also believed in Lu Xiaofeng's ability to investigate cases and his judgment on people and things.

Lu Xiaofeng still wanted to say something, but suddenly found a little monk running outside the door, but he didn't dare to come in, but looked at them with some hesitation.

Lu Xiaofeng beckoned to him, but he became even more frightened, he stood outside the door and shrank, until the abbot summoned him, he dared not come in.

Seeing that he was afraid, the abbot asked kindly, "Tan Xin, why did you come here?"

Tan Xin lowered her head and hesitated for a long time before saying: "Just now the Elder Dharma Guardian asked me if I saw any suspicious person last night, I told him no, it was actually a lie."

Master Wu Chi raised his eyebrows, and there was the look of a vajra glaring.

"Cultivators don't tell lies. You have been in the temple for many years, but you have forgotten even this one?"

Tan was so anxious that he almost burst into tears, and quickly argued: "It's really important, and I'm not sure, so I dare not say it... But after thinking about it, if I don't say it, what if I delay the important matter?" ?”

The abbot comforted: "Don't panic, tell everyone, what did you see last night?"

Tan Xin's eyes kept drifting towards Ye Kai, which made the latter feel more and more ominous.

For thousands of years, the same drama has been performed on and off the mountain, but the people on and off the stage have changed.

The little monk didn't come out early or late, but he came out when Ye Kai and Lu Xiaofeng arrived, it seemed like a good deal.

The flying knife on Master Tie Yi's throat has already made everyone suspicious of him. If another little monk comes out and says he saw him go out, it will be a good show.

It would be fine if Lu Xiaofeng was with him all the time, but unfortunately he was away for a while that night, so there was no way to prove that he stayed in the room all the time.If the little monk's next words were not good for him, he would not be able to argue.

As Ye Kai expected, Tan Xin pointed at Ye Kai and Lu Xiaofeng tremblingly, and then said: "That night, I opened the window in the house to watch the moon, but unexpectedly I saw a person enter this monastery..."

Master Wu Chi said coldly: "This person is probably the murderer."

There was no disturbance on Ye Kai's face, but there was almost a sneer in his heart.

But then he found that Lu Xiaofeng touched his hand calmly, as if to make him feel at ease.

Ye Kai looked at Lu Xiaofeng with a smile in his eyes, but what he never expected was that Tan Xin's fingers trembled slightly, and then pointed firmly at a person, but that person was not Ye Kai, but the person beside him. Lu Xiaofeng.

"It's him... the person I saw at that time was him!"

As soon as the words fell, not only Lu Xiaofeng, but everyone's faces were full of astonishment.

Only Ye Kai's face remained unchanged, but his heart seemed to have been immersed in ice water, because he suddenly realized what the murderer really wanted to see.

That is to turn a well-known detective who is famous all over the world into a suspect under investigation.
