C15 Catch a Scapegoat

The monk looked at him and said: "my humble self doesn't change his name, if you don't change it, I am Monk Leng Yan from the Xishan temple. If you want to take revenge, then come and find me at Xishan. I don't want to be friends with people like you. " Zhang Tinghua was reprimanded to the point that even Zhao Yonggang was left speechless. The monk turned around and left.

This man was from Outer Mongolia, and he had great medical skills. At the invitation of the abbot in the temple in front of him, he was going to give acupuncture treatment to a monk there, so he didn't have the time to get entangled with others. After the eighty-fifth chapter, the six cold-blooded assassins of Japan still needed to give a detailed account of their ambush on the Temple of National Return.

Zhang Tinghua looked at the monk's back, feeling extremely awkward. Zhao Yonggang patted the dust off his body and sighed, "What a bad luck!" The two of them dejectedly left the forest, not mentioning anything as they walked back.

As for Gan Yiyi and Kuanglu Ping, they were chasing after the busy road segment. The two pursued each other for a while, panting from exhaustion. Gan Xingyi said: "Second brother, there are more and more pedestrians here. There are many forks in the road and alleys, and it's hard to tell where the monk went. Our hope of catching a monk is very slim. "Let's find someone to ask."

When Quang Lu Ping saw a woman coming over, he stepped forward and asked, "Have you seen a monk before?" The woman was annoyed by his rudeness. "I didn't see the monk, I saw the old Taoist."

He went to ask the others, "Excuse me, did you see a fat monk go over?" The That Girl laughed, "I saw the skinny monk pass by just now; the tall one, I didn't see him." The two of them then asked many men and women, and some of them even saw monks passing by. It was all wrong to ask about the fat, tall, short, and the things they carried. Facing the criss-crossing alleys and streets, the two of them were both anxious and helpless.

"Big brother, I don't think the monk who stole from us would be that stupid," said Quang Lu Ping. He stole someone's things, yet he still dared to carry them along the street? He must be hiding. Where are we going to find him? These alleys and streets have been searched all over, people have asked questions in hoarse voices, we are tired to death, but also can't find him. Besides, we haven't even seen the monk's face. Even if he walked opposite us, we wouldn't recognize him if he didn't take the bag. "

Gan Xingyi thought about it and said, "I think so too." Unless we use a large number of officers and policemen to close the city gate, search the area from door to door, catch all the fat monks and let Mr. Liu identify them, we might be able to catch the monks who are stealing things. "

Quang Lu Ping sighed and said, "Today's matter is all Fourth Brother's fault. He had to eat some bananas. In the end, he tricked the six of us. "

"We've told him a long time ago, 'Accompanying a lord like a tiger, one must be careful when doing things,'" said Gan Xingyi. He just can't remember. " Quang Lu Ping then said: "Today's incident is not like the incident at the Tianjin branch residence. That time, we were unable to bear the consequences, but at least we came over. Today, this matter happened too quickly, and our reputation would be tarnished, and we would be doomed from now on. If we can't catch the monk, if we can't get the thing back, we can all lose our heads. Yuan Shikai had always been ruthless, headless and headstrong. If anything went wrong with him, it would be hard to get his forgiveness. Moreover, what was stolen was a priceless treasure! " He hardened his heart and continued, "From now on, we will not have a good ending. At most, let's all go. A bachelor doesn't suffer losses just by looking at things! As long as the mountains remain, there will be nothing to fear. "

Gan Xing Yi said: "When Yuan Shikai fights with us today, we will definitely not let it go. He must make us half dead. "No matter how good it is here, I can't stay." Kuang Lu Ping then said, "Let's not find any monks. Let's go back to find our brothers and scheme. Let's leave Beijing." The two of them sighed. They didn't look for the monks but instead, came back to look for their brothers.

On the other hand, Yang Dazhu and Zou Rensheng were chasing to the east. The two of them could no longer run. As they walked, they asked, "Have you seen the monk?" After asking a few people, they all said that they had seen it, and that it was right in front of them. The two hurriedly chased after it, and when they caught up to it, they found that it was either the dwarf monk, the young monk, or the skinny monk.

The two of them were smart enough to realize that they had asked the wrong question. Yang Dazhi said, "We were in a hurry and spoke inappropriately, so the question itself was wrong." Zou Rensheng said, "This time, we'll think about it and ask again."

Yang Dazhi said, "Look at me." He stopped a gentleman and asked, "Just now, did you see a fat monk go over?" The gentleman was walking with a heavy mind, and although he ran into a monk, he did not notice the size of the fat man. He was asked about the difficulty and was now reminded of the monk's size. He felt that he was in the wrong, so he shook his head and left. The two of them asked the man and woman a few more times, and they all did the same thing. They shook their heads and left in silence.

The two finally asked one of them about it, and they smiled as they talked. Instead, he asked, "You two, do I need to recite scriptures to a fat monk? The quality of scriptures was not limited to how big or small a monk was. It depends on whether you're a proper monk or a monk made of meat and wine. "

This person knew them well. The two of them hurriedly said, "Brother, stop joking. We're dying of anxiety. "

Seeing their anxious expressions, the man intentionally joked, "Neither of you are dead, so don't try to find a monk to chant."

The two could only pull at that person and plead, "Good brother, quickly tell us, do you see him or not?" That person said seriously, "I saw it. "There's a fat big monk who's been going over this for a while now." ""There was hope in both of them, and they hurried in the direction he pointed.

The two of them took over the alley, and chased after it for a long time. They kept asking people, saying that the monk had passed by; in the end, the two of them ran into the fat monk on their way to State Protecting Temple. The two of them followed behind the monk and looked at him over and over again. They could see that the monk was extremely fat, and his gait was firm. Naturally, they did not panic. On their hands, they carried nothing with them.

Yang Dazhu had already started to feel scared. He said to Zou Rensheng, "This monk is so fat. From the way he walks, he must have some astonishing skills." If the two of us go up together, I'm afraid we won't be able to defeat him. "He didn't take anything. He doesn't seem like someone who would steal something. I think we should forget about it. Don't go and mess with him."

Zou Rensheng smiled sinisterly, "Fifth brother, what do you mean by that? We finally saw the fat monk, how can we forget about it? It doesn't matter if he is the monk who stole our goods or not, we will still beat him up. He's not easy to deal with, so we don't need to mess with him. "Follow behind him and see which temple he's from. We'll have something to say when we get back."

Hearing that, Yang Da Jing was amused, "That's right, why didn't I think of that? "Catching a scapegoat will at least alleviate our sins."

Zou Rensheng continued, "We'll go back and insist that the fat monk had a bag in his hand and entered State Protecting Temple. The people from State Protecting Temple are powerful, their skills are high, and few of us dare to offend them. This would put the matter of capturing the monk on the hands of the soldiers and the police. We can keep our heads, it's no big deal. "

As the two people made up lies, they were also happy and unknowingly arrived in front of the State Protecting Temple Mountain. He saw that the monk had simply entered the mountain gate.

The two looked at each other and smiled. "He is in our favor." This was truly a disaster that happened for no reason, causing all the monks in State Protecting Temple to suffer.

Yang Da Jing said happily, "Third brother, we ran until we were hungry and thirsty. Let's find a restaurant to eat and drink some water first." Zou Rensheng nodded in agreement. He turned around and pointed at the restaurant on the street and said, "Let's go there and have a few drinks." The two of them had a belly full of evil tricks as they headed straight for the restaurant.

Then there was Yuan Shikai and the Eunuch Liu. The two were so angry that their minds were in a mess. There wasn't a single bodyguard remaining by their side. The two of them were anxious and angry. They wandered around the banana stand for a while, gradually calming down. There wasn't a single bodyguard around them, and both of them were nervous and terrified.

Eunuch Liu was even more nervous than Yuan Shikai. Trembling with fear, he repeatedly let his thoughts run wild, "As the saying goes, there is no single blessing, no single misfortune. It would be even worse if they took advantage of this opportunity to assassinate someone. Not only did the restoration fail, but the President's life was gone as well. We have also become the sinner of a thousand years. I was the one who arranged for the President to come here and meet people. The thief seemed to be prepared. How did he know? "The President has always been a treacherous person. Would he suspect that I've leaked some information and was scheming something?" The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became.

Looking at the time, it was already noon. Inoue Shizuo should be arriving soon. The two were still unwilling to leave. On one hand, the two of them were staring at the Taibai Lou door, hoping to see Inoue Shizuo's figure; on the other hand, they were paying attention to the passersby, afraid that the Revolutionary Party would kill them.

The two of them were anxious and nervous at one moment and extremely uneasy at the other. It was as if they were sitting on pins and needles. The two of them felt that with the old man selling bananas by their side, they would occasionally chat for a while. The two of them spoke with the old man as they waited for Inoue Shizuo.

Unknowingly, noon had passed and Inoue Shizuo still had not come. The two of them stared intensely at the Taibai Lou, anxious to see the light in their eyes. Yuan Shikai looked at his watch. It was already one o'clock in the afternoon. How could he fail to keep his appointment? "

He was in a hurry when a group of civilian workers with pickaxes on their shoulders came from the east. They frightened Yuan Shikai and Eunuch Liu so much that they sat right next to the old man, one on each side. When the old man saw them and saw the laborers, he became alarmed and said: "These people are laborers. They passed here and entered the Taibai Lou to eat. They're building a house to the east. "

Hearing this, the two of them felt at ease.

The old man had been waiting for a long time. Seeing that the six of them were still not back from chasing the monk, he felt very hungry and wanted to pack up and go home. He stood up and looked around for a while. "This old man is unlucky today. The bananas are wasted, and I don't have any money left," he said to himself.

He turned around and picked up the bananas that had been thrown on the ground. As he put them into the basket, he sighed and said, "Forget it. This old man thinks he's unlucky." He cleaned up the stall, said nothing, picked up the basket, and took a stool home. Only Yuan Shikai and Eunuch Liu remained. The two of them instantly felt bored and lonely. Facing the market of Xiao Lang, the two were truly lonely.

They waited for a while more, but Yuan Shikai was already tired. He lowered his head, and suddenly felt a knife stabbing him from behind. Standing in front of him was a group of Revolutionary Party, the jet-black muzzle of a gun was pointed at him, and someone was even threatening him: "Yuan Shikai, I didn't think that you would still have the day that you would land in our hands." Yuan Shikai was so frightened that he panicked. He struggled to keep his eyes open and looked around. Only when he saw nothing did he realize that he had just dozed off and was dreaming. He was afraid that the dream would become a reality so he got up and said, "We can't wait any longer. Quickly find a car and go back."
