Chapter 392 It’s all up to fate

"Someone come!" Chen Changgeng shouted loudly and took action subconsciously.

He stepped on the Bagua and pushed out his palms. The wind was overflowing, and the changes were endless. The shadows of his palms filled the air, like a net of heaven and earth.

At this time, he saw the "Yuanshi Tianzun" on the opposite side swinging his right hand in a plain way. The whole person's momentum was vast and vast, as if it came from the ancient times and existed with the years.

The five fingers were slender and white like jade. The moves were simple but seemed to be close to some unchanging laws between heaven and earth. They cut into Chen Changgeng's palm with mysterious positions and angles.

The airflow was disturbed and thrown towards the palm, and the palm shadows like a net of heaven and earth were retracted and returned to ordinary two hands.

Bang, the right hand of "Yuanshi Tianzun" brushed the palms of Chen Changgeng's hands. He felt both hands numb, and his body moved forward in an incredible way instead of retreating. He couldn't help but step forward a few steps, bumped into a chair, and fell on it. Across the not-so-big table, he looked at "Yuanshi Tianzun" with a majestic and vicissitudes voice. Chen Changgeng's forehead was full of cold sweat. He looked at the powerful but not clearly defined hands of "Yuanshi Tianzun" and turned to the personal guard who had not yet taken action and said, "Go out and guard, don't let others in." Others refer to the masters in the family who heard his call and rushed over. After giving the order, he smiled and said, "I don't know why you are here?" "More than three years ago, did you send a servant to bury a body in a mass grave?" Meng Qi asked directly. Here it comes... Chen Changgeng's expression changed, his heart skipped a beat, and then he smiled bitterly: "Yes, I have been worried about this for a long time, and today I am finally relieved." "Did you kill him?" Meng Qi used the Heaven-Changing and Earth-Strike Great Method to sense Chen Changgeng's emotions. "No!" Chen Changgeng denied without hesitation, "Late that night, I suddenly felt like going to Yanliu Lane for fun, but as soon as I opened the side door, I found a man lying on the ground. I held up a lantern and looked closely, and it was a dead man."

"His face was pale, almost blue, and he had been dead for about an hour. There were no obvious fresh scars on his body, nor any signs of evil. His shoes and clothes were placed beside him, all neatly arranged, as if he came to my door alone, took off his clothes and shoes, and lay quietly, waiting for death to come."

"This matter is too weird. I was afraid of being framed and worried about causing many subsequent troubles, so I didn't inform the Six Gates, and ordered the servants to burn the clothes and shoes and carry the body to the mass grave for burial. Later, I often woke up in the middle of the night because of this matter, fearing that disaster would come to my door."

Chen Changgeng was a little uneasy and a little excited, and seemed to have been troubled by this matter for a long time.

"Were there any special traces or items at that time?" Meng Qi judged that Chen Changgeng was not lying from the emotional changes and the logic of the description, and turned to ask for clues.

Of course, if it was another "wild actor", it would be another matter, but his family was here, and the monk could escape but the temple could not.

"No." Chen Changgeng thought about this question many times and blurted it out without recalling.

Meng Qi nodded and asked about other details.

The most puzzling thing for him was why Jin Li's body was thrown outside Chen Changgeng's door and buried in a deserted place without anyone noticing.

"I wonder if Mr. Chen has any enemies?" This was the only reason he could think of at the moment.

Chen Changgeng had long suspected that it was his enemy. He coughed and said, "Because of the relationship between the fields and water sources, I am not on good terms with the nearby families and sects, including the Sun family, the Jia family, the Jiangzuo Sword Sect and the Tianming Temple. By the way, the Shen family was seized by me and other families. The dock is so hateful to me. These are all things that happened before the corpse appeared."

Meng Qi silently remembered these families and sects, and after asking a few more questions casually, he slowly stood up: "Mr. Chen, I'm sorry to bother you."

"I wonder who the deceased is?" Chen Changgeng couldn't help asking.

Meng Qi put his hand on the door and laughed: "It's better not to know."

After speaking, he opened the door, and his figure suddenly blurred. It was not that he disappeared, but his steps were magical, like a dream, and it made people feel like there was a residual image.

The many masters of the Chen family who came outside the door had a flash in their eyes, and they lost the trace of the enemy before they took action. Only the two doors were gently echoing with the cold wind.

"Huh, who is this master..." Chen Changgeng exhaled.

…………

As one of the local bosses, Lu Jian was very efficient in his work. Before dusk on the second day, he had roughly figured out the love affairs in the city before and after Jin Li disappeared.

Of course, they were all relatively big things, or involved sects and families. Otherwise, who could collect so much information about the marriage and love of ordinary people after more than three years, unless they specifically inquired about a certain family? But this kind of family didn't seem to be involved with Jin Li.

After setting off a few fireworks at the door, he returned to the study and waited patiently.

Because the New Year was approaching, fireworks were flying from time to time, and his actions just now did not attract attention or suspicion.

Bang, the window was blown open by the strong wind, and the coldness came in. Lu Jian hurriedly looked at the window, suspecting that the young man in blue shirt had come, but as far as his eyes could see, there was no one, only plum blossoms.

Did the servant not close it properly? He shook his head and closed the window. Just as he turned his head, his body suddenly froze.

The young man in green stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the books on the shelf. He had an elegant demeanor and a free and easy posture.

He, when did he come in? ! Lu Jian's face changed slightly and he was very shocked. He felt the gap between himself and the real master.

"What did you find?" Meng Qi didn't turn around, as if he was chatting with his parents.

Lu Jian calmed down his emotions and replied respectfully: "A few days after Jin Li disappeared, Miss Shen's family would rather die than marry the Jia family. Although she attempted suicide, she finally broke the engagement. Now she is still alone. Also, the concept of destiny suddenly There is an additional Taoist nun who is taciturn and never goes out. "

"The Shen family...the concept of destiny..." Meng Qi repeated these two words.

They are all the enemies mentioned by Chen Changgeng, and as long as their Qinggong is good, they can go anywhere in Wen'an within an hour.

Lu Jian thought he didn't know about the Shen family and the concept of destiny, so he quickly explained: "The Shen family moved here a hundred years ago and built the Shen Garden, with the North Cargo, Wharf and Mine Medicine Garden as the foundation. Because of the competition for the wharf, They have had rifts with many families and sects in the city, and they have little contact with them. There are many experts in the family, but they don't make many moves, so they appear to be quite mysterious. "

"The Tianming Temple was not originally called this name. A few decades ago, a wandering Taoist priest passed by. For some reason, he decided to stay and developed the Taoist temple with a sparse population into a relatively prosperous place, half temple and half sect. ”

"His strength is unknown. He claims to be a Taoist Taoist priest, and changed his Taoist temple to the Taoist Taoist temple. He is a talkative person. He often talks about destiny being determined by heaven, with no cause or effect, and practicing good deeds without accumulating virtue. If you don't have a destiny, don't force it. However, he looks at people. It is extremely accurate, and it often happens when someone says something about their fate, which makes us both laugh and be in awe.”

It's all a bit weird... Meng Qi said thoughtfully: "Aren't there any other love entanglements?"

"Yes, there are some, but they are all from a small family, so it is impossible to embarrass Jin Li..." Lu Jian briefly mentioned other things.

"Okay, I will verify it myself." Meng Qi didn't try to be mysterious and just opened the door and left. However, the green robe was in full bloom, and all the servants along the way turned a blind eye, which made Lu Jian's tongue curled up.

…………

Jiangdong has gentle mountains and rivers, and Tianming Temple is located on a hilly and graceful peak. There are stone steps along the road that wind all the way to the gate.

Because fortune-telling is quite effective, many good men and women come here to offer incense and give alms, and the temple is quite lively.

Meng Qi was wearing a green shirt, walking with his hands behind his back, his posture was leisurely, as if he were playing.

He looked at the Taoist priests who were entertaining the pilgrims, trying to find the female crown, but unfortunately he didn't find it. She seemed to be meditating.

Meng Qi did not search directly because he was quite wary of the mysterious and strange Tianming Taoist. He walked up to a Taoist boy and said with a smile: "I want to see the master of the temple to see the fate, can you pass it on for me?"

He decided to meet Taoist Tianming first.

"Looking at ten thousand taels at a time, the temple owner said that this was the harvest he was destined to have." Tao Tong had seen too many people like Meng Qi who wanted to read fortunes, so he said straightforwardly, "You can give alms afterwards, or items of equal value, but not You don’t have to give it. If you think it’s too expensive, my brothers will only charge five taels for the cheapest one.”

It's really a lion's mouth... Meng Qi thought for a moment that he still had the land deed to Jiangdong and was a little curious about his fate, so he smiled and said, "Let's find the temple master."

"Donor please." The Taoist boy didn't say much and led Meng Qi to the back of the Taoist temple and into a small courtyard.

The courtyard was cold, the leaves had fallen off, leaving only branches. A blue-robed Taoist with a half-black and half-white beard sat on a stone bench and watched the dead leaves swirl.

"Master, there is someone who wants to see the destiny." The Taoist boy saluted.

The Taoist turned around, his face was smooth without any wrinkles, Meng Qi couldn't even tell the difference!

"You want to see your fate?" His voice was old.

"I'm just curious as to why fate is destined and cannot be changed?" Meng Qi lifted up his shirt and sat down on another stone bench without ceremony.

The Taoist turned back and continued to look at the dead leaves swirling: "I push you, and your Qi and physical body react. So, no matter whether you move forward, backward, left, or forward, the result is already determined. There is no way to do it." Change again.”

"This is the theory of cause and effect, but didn't the owner say that there is no cause and no effect?" Meng Qi chuckled.

"The theory of cause and effect is trivial. As long as all the premises are met, a certain result can be deduced, and from the certain result, various conditions can be deduced, going back all the way to the day when one was born, to the time when the heaven and the earth were opened. Only in this way can we know that all kinds of It was decided from then on that if we develop and evolve according to the established rules, no matter how hard we struggle, it will be useless. Doing good deeds will not accumulate merit and will not accumulate good results for the future life. Just enjoy your own miserable or good life with peace of mind." Taoist said. The doctrine of cause and effect is scoffed at.

What a pessimistic statement... Meng Qi was slightly stunned, but instead of arguing, he asked: "I wonder how many fates there are?"

"From the moment you are born, your destiny is determined, and you will be what you are. There are six types of destiny, showing different colors. The worst one is black, which means you will be miserable throughout your life and suffer a lot. The second one is green. For ordinary people, Ordinary people can enjoy peace and happiness, but also have hardships. Once again, they are famous, prosperous and wealthy, famous in the world, but there are also all kinds of tortures. Then there is Huang, the destiny of the emperor, holding power, strong strength, many hardships and tests, and the second best. The destiny is white, destined to become an immortal and achieve enlightenment. The destiny of the Buddha and Heavenly Lord has not appeared in countless years. There are many differences under different colors. "

Meng Qi was overjoyed when he heard this: "Master Tianming, please help me find out what color my destiny is."

Tianming Taoist turned his head, his eyes were dark and hollow, like a blind man.

He looked at it carefully for a while and said calmly: "Blue destiny..."

"No, it's red, no, no, yellow!"

"White? This, this, how can it become pure white!"

Taoist Tianming's expression changed drastically, as if he was encountering a demon, he retreated hastily, but forgot that he was sitting on a stone bench, and fell directly to the ground.

The corner of Meng Qi's mouth twitched. Fortunately, it was six colors, not seven colors.
