Chapter 12 Lishang Kingdom
“Oh no, someone died again!”
In the lord’s palace, a guard rushed into the door in a panic and knelt on one knee. In front of a middle-aged man wearing rich clothes and preparing to have breakfast.
"Your Majesty, people reported this morning that two more people died in the Linhe Street area."
"What!?"
Su Jingyu dropped the bowls and chopsticks in his hands and his expression changed drastically.
"Where is the scene? Immediately bring people to surround the scene and arrange for an autopsy."
"Dad, let's go after breakfast."
Su Jingyu's Daughter Su Chen looked worriedly at Su Jingyu who was in a hurry to go out without eating a single bite of his breakfast.
"Chen'er, take care of yourself at home and don't go anywhere. The country of Li Shang is not peaceful recently."
Su Jingyu gave Su Chen some serious instructions and then followed the guards out of the palace.
"Miss, you don't have to worry. The master is the king of the country, and there are many guards around him."
Xiao Lin, the maid next to Su Chen, saw the sadness on her young lady's face and whispered to comfort her. road.
Su Chen looked at the breakfast on the table and said nothing.
For a long time, Su Chen asked: "Xiao Lin, where is my brother?"
Xiaolin replied: "Young Master went out early in the morning and didn't say where he was going."
When Su Chen heard Xiaolin's answer, his eyes narrowed slightly and he asked with an unclear expression: "Really?" ?”
After that, he picked up the bowls and chopsticks and started eating breakfast alone.
Xiao Lin glanced at her young lady in confusion, as if she was a little confused as to what her young lady meant by asking about the young master's whereabouts.
Su Jingyu left the Imperial Palace and did not follow the guards to see the crime scene in the Linhe Street area, but went in the opposite direction.
There, a simple temple was recently built.
In the temple, there live several eminent monks from Xiangyun Temple in Xingluo Kingdom.
"Master Chang Yuan, something happened again in Li Shang's country last night."
Su Jingyu respectfully followed the Buddhist rules and bowed to a monk wearing monk's robes and a white beard. bye.
“Amitabha, I have felt something from yesterday’s dinner.”
Master Chang Yuan pinched the Buddhist string in his hand and took a deep breath. Afterwards, Master Chang Yuan raised his head slightly, held the Buddha string in his hand, and recited Buddhist Dharma in his mouth, as if he was trying to save the dead souls.
"Master, I wonder when the Dharma meeting you mentioned last time will start? Nowadays, people in Lishang Kingdom are in panic."
"The demons are causing harm. People can only be induced by demon pills. When Junior Brother Laoji returns, the ceremony will begin."
Su Jingyu looked anxious, "I wonder when Master Changkong will return."
"Amitabha, my lord, don't be impatient. The opportunity has not appeared, which means the time has not yet come." Chang Yuan lowered his head slightly toward Su Jingyu and said slowly.
"The Lord..."
Su Jingyu originally wanted to ask Chang Yuan some more questions, but the guards outside kept urging him.
"Your Majesty, the young master is taking a doctor to do an autopsy on the street."
When Su Jingyu heard the news, he frowned and scolded in a low voice: "It's nonsense, don't let anyone do it." Go and stop him! How can he be so humiliated if he is the dead man?”
When the guard heard this, he trotted away, probably to order someone to stop the young master's behavior.
Su Jingyu also handed over to Master Chang Yuan who was not far away, and then strode away with the guards.
"Stop!"
When Su Jingyu rushed to the scene on Linhe Street, he heard his naughty and unfilial son trying to break free from the guards' obstruction.
“You dare to stop me, who gave you the courage!”
"Su Jiechen!"
Su Jingyu had a gloomy look on his face and was suppressing his temper, "If you dare to mess around again, I will confine you to the Lord's Mansion!"
"Dad ...Dad! "
The momentum Su Jiechen had just built up was instantly shattered by Su Jingyu's words.
"Dad, I just want to see what evil spirits our Lishang Kingdom has attracted..."
Su Jiechen walked to Su Jingyu's side, lowered his head, and clearly lacked confidence in what he said.
“Can you identify the evil that even the two masters of Xiangyun Temple can’t see by taking someone to do an autopsy on the street?”
Su Jingyu didn’t believe what Su Jiechen said at all. , his own son, can he not understand?
Ever since I was a child, I have loved these anecdotes, monsters and ghosts.
