Chapter 47 Buddha and Demon
Qiu Wuhen crossed his shoulders and said teasingly: "Don't leave in such a hurry. I haven't figured out the matter yet. I'm also very curious about what's going on."
Qian Jinzhi stretched out his hand and pointed at Xie Zhigao's waist.
Xie Zhigao wanted to hide, but couldn't. He was so weak that he collapsed on the ground.
Qian Jinzhi lifted Xie Zhigao up, walked back to Xia Houtian, threw him on the ground, squatted down and looked at Xia Houtian and said: "Mr. Xia Hou, what is going on? I hope you can explain it to Mr. Qiu."
.”
Of course Xia Houtian knew that Qiu Wuhen was a Jin Yiwei. When he saw Qiu Wuhen walking slowly towards him, his face was sad, and he nodded and said: "Since it is Jin Yiwei who is investigating this case, I know that if I don't tell you, you will use all means to force a confession."
.Instead of saying it after suffering a lot, it’s better to say it now.”
He took a breath before continuing: "Actually, this golden Buddha was stolen from a temple in the Western Region by Xie Zhigao. He wanted to sell it to me, but the asking price was too high, and the price was too high.
I couldn't talk about it. I liked the Golden Buddha very much, so I asked him to keep the Golden Buddha. I said I would find a way and gave him a large deposit. But the price he asked was too high and he refused to give in.
If I pay him the price he wants, I probably have to sell most of my property and shops to be able to afford it."
"So I deliberately pretended to repair the Yeji Temple, asked skilled craftsmen to repair the Tathagata Buddha, and hid it in the belly of the Buddha statue. Because I knew Xie Zhigao would come to me to ask for this thing. But I hid it
After that, he came and I gave him a large amount of money. I said this was the highest price I could give him. He still refused and insisted on taking the things back. I said this thing is not yours anyway.
, you stole it, so much money should be enough, but he still refused to do it, so I asked the servants to kick him out. "
"He knows martial arts, but he's not very good at it. He wanted to trouble me at home several times, but I hired experts from the martial arts world to look after my home, and he couldn't come in at all. I'm also very cautious when I go out, and I always bring
Even with a large group of people, he couldn't get close to me. He made trouble in my shop, buying kitchen knives and coffins to engrave and so on. He made all kinds of excuses to cause trouble, but I tolerated it."
"The Yamen once asked me if I wanted to arrest him, and I said no. I didn't want to make the matter bigger, and I also wanted him to quit. Afterwards, I gave him money several times, and the amounts were quite large, but he still
If he doesn't do it, then I have nothing to do, so I just put it off. I thought it was just a Buddha statue, and I gave him a lot of money, so that would be enough. I didn't expect that this time he would take advantage of me to hold a funeral for Yin Hong.
, actually kidnapped me, luckily you two rescued me, thank you very much!"
Qiu Wuhen glanced at Qian Jinzhi: "I will also get into the Tathagata Buddha to have a look."
As he said that, he climbed onto the Tathagata Buddha and moved the mechanism into the Buddha's belly. After careful inspection, he found that the space inside was very small. There was indeed a platform where a Buddha statue could be placed, and there was a passage underneath that could be drilled out. The surrounding area was smooth and there were no openings.
Traces. Then it came out from below.
Qiu Wuhen shook his head: "There is nothing inside."
Xie Zhigao said: "Of course not. I searched carefully just now and the monk must have taken it away."
The deaf-mute monk just stood there, clasping his hands, chanting sutras silently, turning a blind eye to them and turning a deaf ear.
Qiu Wuhen said to Qian Jinzhi: "I want to get a confession from the other party. I can't just listen to him. But I can't let Xia Houtian hear our questioning."
Qian Jinzhi nodded and pointed on Xiahoutian's head, causing Xiahoutian to faint immediately.
Qiu Wuhen squatted in front of Xie Zhigao: "You'd better know better and tell the truth. Otherwise, I will make your life worse than death!"
Xie Zhigao's right hand pressed the wound of the arrow on his shoulder. Blood was still slowly gushing out from between his fingers. He smiled miserably: "Now that things have happened, what else do I have to hide? That Buddha statue I hid from Us
It was stolen from a mysterious temple deep in the Snowy Mountains. It is only half a foot tall. If this thing is just a simple Buddha statue made of gold, it is indeed not worth much, but this is a magical Buddha statue, and its body is that of Tathagata Buddha.
, but his face is that of a demon with a green face and fangs. It is said that he is the patron saint of that temple and has some kind of magical power that can protect people's wishes and make them come true."
"Furthermore, I have seen it with knowledgeable people, and they said that this thing is an antique, and it is estimated to be thousands of years old. This kind of statue of Buddha and Demon combined can be named Buddha and Demon. It is estimated that there is only one statue in the world, so it is very special.
It’s valuable. I just wanted money and didn’t want to keep this Buddha and Demon, so I found Xia Houtian and wanted to sell it to him. At first he countered with me, but I insisted that I wouldn’t let go and refused to give in. Finally he agreed.
He gave me a sum of money, which he said was a deposit, and asked me to put the things at his place first, and he would raise the money for me."
"I don't agree. He said that I will give you the things after you raise the money. He said that I have given you so much money without asking you to issue a receipt, and I am not worried that your things are fake or that you take them.
He took the money and ran away, what are you worried about? I thought about it, but I wasn't worried yet, so he took me to see Yin Hong."
"I fell in love with Yin Hong as soon as I saw her. He told me that he gave Yin Hong to me as a mortgage and that Yin Hong could accompany me during the fund raising period. I saw Yin Hong and liked her so much that I forgot about everything. Yin Hong also
He persuaded me to trust Mr. Xiahou and said that he would definitely raise the money, so I agreed."
"After that, I was with Yin Hong every day. As a result, I later found out that I had been poisoned by Yin Hong. It was a chronic poison. I felt less and less powerful. At first, I thought I was doing the same thing with her every day.
It happened, and my body was hollowed out. But I was sure it wasn't true later, because I secretly went to a doctor nearby. After the doctor looked at it, he said that I had been poisoned by a chronic poison. He couldn't tell what it was, but he was definitely poisoned.
, I will die if I go on.”
"I didn't press Yin Hong after I came back. I just told her that I would pick her up in the evening and ask her to wait for me and not to tell anyone. She actually pretended to be happy. This femme fatale poisoned me.
, and they also played with my feelings, and the acting was quite similar."
"I didn't expose her, I just sneaked into the attic after nightfall and quietly took her out. I prepared a ladder in advance and took her away after taking her down from the attic, so they didn't know
I took her away. I first found a place to stay outside, and then I took her out at dawn. When I got to the mass grave, I had already prepared a thin wooden coffin."
"I took out a dagger, but she laughed when she saw the coffin and the knife. She thought I was joking. I asked her why she lied to me? The sweet words she said to me before the flowers and under the moon were all lies.
She secretly poisoned me to kill me. What do you think she said?"
"say what?"
"She actually giggled and said, For someone as stupid as me, who would I lie to if I didn't lie to me? Although I was cheated, I don't have to be sad or impatient. I'll get used to being cheated a few times."
"Uh..., this Yin Hong is really stupid and brainless. If she still says that now, isn't she looking for death?"
"Yes, I just wanted to scare her. After hearing this, I was so angry that I fainted and stabbed her in the stomach. She held her stomach and saw the blood flowing out. Only then did she know that I was serious.
, immediately cried and knelt on the ground begging me not to kill her."
"I asked her why she wanted to poison me? She said that Xia Houtian asked her to do it, and she didn't know what it was, because Xia Houtian told her that it was just a medicine to nourish the body, not poison. She believed that
