According to previous investigations, Master Wuchen had a twin brother, but the midwife was very sure that there was only one child born that year and there were no twins at all.

Master Wuchen's parents also left the village because of the birth of the six-fingered child, and their whereabouts were unknown later.

During this period, no one was able to investigate where the family had moved. Because there were floating populations from time to time in nearby villages, not to mention small towns, and no one noticed a couple with twins or a six-fingered child.

The timelines couldn't be put together, so there was no way to confirm whether the baby the midwife was talking about was the one they were looking for.

Therefore, Si Moli set his sights on the temple where Master Wuchen first appeared.

This temple is small and dilapidated. At first, we only found an old monk. After identifying the portrait of Master Wuchen, he said that he must have stayed in this temple and could not remember anything else.

Si Moli sent secret guards to find out if there were any other monks in the temple.

Finally, I found a young monk from that time who has now become the abbot of another temple, with the title of Mingjing.

Ming Jing remembers Wuchen: "We grew up together in the temple when we were young. Wuchen was diligent and sweet-talking, and all the monks in the temple liked him. However, the popularity of the temple was not good, and many monks there began to find their own way out.

The poor monk also left there, came here by chance, and lost contact with him."

The secret guard asked: "Does Master Wuchen have any brothers?"

Ming Jing shook his head: "No, he, like me, is a child adopted by the temple."

The secret guard noticed something was wrong and took out Wuchen's portrait to show to Ming Jing. Unexpectedly, after Ming Jing recognized it, he was very confused: "Well, after so many years, the poor monk can't remember it clearly, but the poor monk feels that this portrait

It doesn’t quite look like Wuchen, but more like..."

"Like who?"

"Like Xiaoliu. He was a child picked up by Wuchen, but the abbot at that time said that Xiaoliu's six roots were not exhausted, so he did not accept him. Wuchen felt sorry for him because he was young and had no father and mother, so he asked the abbot for permission.

Xiaoliu lives in the temple and can do some chores on weekdays, so the abbot agreed."

Ming Jing said and smiled: "Xiao Liu and Wu Chen do have some similarities. Many pilgrims think they are brothers. This is probably fate."

The secret guard vaguely noticed something was wrong with this Xiao Liu, and continued to ask: "Why is this Xiao Liu called this name? Does he have six fingers?"

Ming Jing was a little surprised: "How did you know? Because he was born with six fingers and had no name, he was called Xiaoliu in the temple."

The secret guard quickly conveyed the news back.

Si Moli quickly realized that something was wrong. In this case, it was probably Xiao Liu who killed Wu Chen and then assumed his identity, so he killed all the monks in the temple.

But there is still something unexplainable about this.

Those monks died a few years ago, and there are still people who have seen them in White Horse Temple. Even if two people look alike, can they be exactly the same?

And if the current Master Wuchen is actually Xiaoliu, then why can't there be anything strange about his left hand?

But in any case, after mastering this information, Si Moli decided to control Master Wuchen first.

But within a day or two, Master Wuchen disappeared.

It was clear that Si Moli had sent people to surround the White Horse Temple, but Master Wuchen still ran away quietly.

There was no other way, so Si Moli could only bring the old monk from White Horse Temple to ask again.

Now there are only two old monks in the temple. One of them has caught a cold and looks like he cannot hold out while lying on the bed.

The other person kept the same rhetoric at first, until Si Moli revealed that he had found something wrong with Master Wuchen, and finally told the truth.

He thought carefully for a long time, and then said: "When the poor monk came to Baima Temple, there were very few people here, and there were less than ten monks in one temple. Later, the reputation spread somehow, and the incense became more prosperous.

He and his brother Xiaoliu came here at that time."

"At that time, the poor monk was just a young monk doing odd jobs. He was very happy to know that two new monks had arrived in the temple. One night, the poor monk passed by the wing and... unexpectedly saw Xiaoliu and

A female pilgrim was making out in the side room. The poor monk was frightened and hurriedly went quietly to notify the abbot at the time."

"The abbot brought a man to the side room and caught their adultery. Xiaoliu was driven away, and the female pilgrim never came to the temple again. Master Wuchen thought that he had brought Xiaoliu, and he was going to take it.

He left. But he taught Buddhism very well, and the abbot wanted to keep him. Finally, Wuchen promised that he would come back after two or three years."

He recalled the past few years, and his face showed the joy and pain of the rest of his life: "In the years after Wuchen left, people began to die in the temple. Except for me and another young monk who did some chores, there were no other people.

Death from illness means accidentally falling to death in the mountains, or going out and not coming back again."

"In those years, more than a dozen monks came and went because of his fame, and he also adopted several children, and the ones who died were all former members of the temple."

"Later, Wuchen came back. His name was recorded in the temple, so others did not suspect it."

"But I recognized that it was not Wuchen, it was obviously Xiaoliu. Only then did I realize that maybe the death of those monks was not an accident."

He sighed and shed two lines of tears in his eyes: "The two of them look alike. The other young monk didn't notice anything unusual, and the poor monk also pretended not to notice, and that's how he survived until now."

"Your Majesty, I'm sorry." The old monk choked and said, "The last time your people came to ask questions, the poor monk was afraid of death, so he didn't dare to tell the truth. After so many years, there is not a day when the poor monk's heart is not painful. Your Majesty, if it were you

If you can find out the truth, please seek justice for the monks who died at Baima Temple!"

After listening to this behind the screen, Shen Qingyun remained silent for a long time.

Therefore, Wuchen rescued Xiaoliu and allowed him to grow up safely. But the original temple had no incense, so the two went out to seek alms to earn a living, and went all the way to the White Horse Temple.

After finally settling down, Xiao Liu committed an offense and was kicked out.

So he simply killed Wuchen and everyone in the temple who might know his identity, and then assumed Wuchen's identity.

As for his missing six fingers, why he said those words to Shen Zhifeng, and why he wanted to save Jiang Lin, we can only know the truth if we catch him.

Shen Qingyun walked out from behind the screen and asked, "Mo Li, can you find out where Wuchen went?"

Si Moli looked a little solemn: "He is just a monk and has no unique martial arts. My people are guarding him day and night. If he can still escape, someone else must have saved him."
