Chapter 196 Scarred

"Yes, Brother Huitong, the brothers will be in charge for you. Don't be afraid!" When the onlookers saw the tall and thin monk opening their mouth, they all gathered around.

Lu Mengji's eyes widened angrily, "Hey, aren't you monks bullying people! I'm obviously...uh..."

The thin and tall monk found a rag from nowhere and stuffed it into Lu Mengji's mouth, "It's really noisy. Women are really troublesome. They just know how to shout! Humph, look at your charming appearance. As a bitch, you still want to set up a chaste archway. Don't dream! How dare you come here to seduce our little brother? Fortunately, I found out early, otherwise you would let Huitong be a man!"

Huitong's nose was red, and there were tears in his eyes. He couldn't say a word, but he just pouted and shook his head.

The abbot was called out of the abbot's courtyard by several little monks and hurried outside the listening hall all the way. From afar, he saw a group of people surrounding Lu Mengji and Huitong, both distressed and anxious.

"What's going on?" The abbot was old, walked in a hurry, and his breath was a little unstable, but when he saw the rope on the two people, he was a little unhappy.

" Untie the rope on them!" The abbot's voice was not loud, but it was very heavy. "Huiren, you go."

Lu Mengji's hand was strangled and congested, and it took a while to relieve herself from the numbness. The rag in her mouth was pulled away and she almost pulled her teeth off.

"Master, this woman seduced the younger brother and was seen by her disciples. You must not let the tiger go back to the mountain!" Without waiting for Lu Mengjie to speak, the thin and tall monk told the scene in detail and vowed, "Master, what the disciples said are true. These brothers have also witnessed it with their own eyes. Master, seduced the disciples of the Buddhist temple to disturb the purity of Buddhism. This matter cannot be ignored!"

"Huineng, the Buddha family can't say anything wildly. Do you know that you have violated that precept?" The abbot looked at Hui Neng with an incompetent look.

"When you go back to the master, don't talk nonsense, the disciples know what they are wrong, but what the disciples said just now, every word is true!" Huineng looked at the abbot stubbornly.

The abbot shook his head. Although Huineng was excellent, he was a little impatient and his obsession was too heavy. He pointed it many times, but Huineng was still persistent.

"Master, master, what you said is true, and the disciples can testify!" Seeing that Brother Huineng was blamed, the little monks around him opened their mouths to testify one after another.

Lu Mengji didn't even have a chance to interrupt, and Huitong had long been pulled aside by the little monk beside him.

"Master Abbot, Master Abbot, please listen to my explanation!" Lu Mengji finally walked to the abbot, and his face was scratched by the drag just now, and now it hurts when it is blown by the wind.

When the abbot saw Lu Mengji, he looked a little solemn.

"Abbot, didn't you invite me to the scriptures?" Lu Mengji just heard the words of the little monks, and he was inevitably puzzled. Since the abbot didn't go out at night, how could he send a message to ask her to come here to talk?

"Amitabha, the female benefactor, never goes out at night, so she won't invite the girl to come." The more the abbot thought about it, the more strange he felt, and he had a general idea in his heart. However, in the face of many disciples, he must maintain justice. If he deliberately favors, he will inevitably cause controversy among his disciples.

"But..." Lu Mengji's words were interrupted by the little monk next to him.

"But what is it? Obviously, you, the witch, seduced our Huitong brother and found the abbot as an excuse!"

"Yes, Brother Huitong has always followed the rules and never crossed half a step. It must be you!"

"A woman who is not a woman like this should be soaked in a pig cage!"

"Pig cage!"

The scene was chaotic again. Those emotional little monks picked up the rope on the ground and tied it to Lu Mengji. This time, it was even stronger than before.

"Abbot! I really didn't..." As soon as Lu Mengjie's words came out, his mouth was stuffed with the rag.

Huitong's eyes were full of tears. He was comforted by the brothers and stayed with tears. The small face of pear blossoms and rain was full of grievances. He took a nap at noon and was scolded by his master to kneel. At night, he met this woman who was not only tied up by five flowers but also ruined the pure reputation of Buddhism. The more he thought about it, the more he thought about it. I was so wronged that I couldn't stop crying.

The abbot was quarreled by many disciples, but everyone in the temple testified that if he forcibly released people, he was afraid that it would cause a bigger **, so at least he temporarily tied Lu Mengjie and threw him into the firewood room.

Murong Yanyan had been coming back from Lu Meng Jian in the middle of the room, but there was no one until late at night. She was very worried, so she took two little men to the sutra hall in person. From afar, she heard a noise and knew that there was an accident in the temple, but obviously the place where the accident happened was in the direction of the scriptures. The more she thought about it, the more worried she became. She quickly walked closer. At first glance, she saw that Lu Mengjie was tied tightly, and her heart was angry.

And a little monk, who didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, reached out and poked Lu Mengji. Lu Mengji's center of gravity was unstable and suddenly fell to the ground. His forehead hit the ground, which made his head hurt.

"Dream Jian!" Mu Rong Yanyan saw this and rushed forward. When the little monk saw that she was the third lady of Huo's house, she hurriedly gave way.

Lu Mengji was helped up by two little ones. His hands and feet were numb because of the rope tied. As soon as he stood up, he tilted aside again.

"What are you doing?" Murong Yanyan stared at the little monk around her, glanced at the abbot and fell on Lu Mengji's body. Lu Mengji's forehead was knocked out of a big bag, and the small wound on her face also oozed trace of blood.

"Third Lady," the abbot said, and I don't know how to explain it.

The little monk next to him couldn't calm down and said angrily, "She seduced our little brother and was arrested by us!"

Murong Yanyan looked at the little monk coldly, "She seduced your little brother?"

The little monk was stared at and unconsciously lowered his head.

"Ha ha, there must be some misunderstanding in it!" Murong Yanyan sneered and turned her head to look at the abbot. "Master, didn't you let Meng Jian come to listen to the scriptures? How did you become my daughter to seduce the monk in this temple?"

"Well, Madam, I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding in this," the abbot said, pointing to the monk next to him, "Why don't you untie the rope quickly!"

Huineng looked at the abbot unconvincedly, "Abbot, you can't ignore the Dharma because of this!"

"Enough, let's wait until dawn!" The abbot was so angry that his face turned into a pig's liver. He usually spoiled Hui too much to make him so unscrupulous!

Several people untied the rope on Lu Mengji's body, but the rope was too tight, and her wrists and ankles were rubbed and covered with blood. Murong Yanyan held Lu Mengji in her arms with distress. Unexpectedly, Lu Mengji was tossed and scarred in just a while!

"Abbot, is this how all living beings are treated in Buddhism?" Murong Yanyan smiled coldly, "Buddhist children have always been self-righteous and moral, do not kill or act rashly, but I didn't expect to be so cruel to a weak woman!"

After listening to this, the monks who were instigated to call for the pig cage did not say anything, bowed their heads and said nothing more.

The abbot's face was also red. He was just stunned by his disciples and made him dizzy. He really shouldn't have made such a low-level mistake!

However, due to Lu Mengjie's irregular behavior with Huitong, even if he does not impose punishment, Lu Mengjie will be included in the black roster of the temple and will not be allowed to worship again. However, if he offend the third lady today, I am afraid that most of the sesame oil money in the temple will be less.

"Master, this girl seduced the younger brother, and the evidence is conclusive. If the master opens up today, how can the brothers in the temple be convinced! Master, please think twice!" Huineng is still obsessed with this, regardless of the embarrassment and anger on the abbot's face at this moment.

"Please think twice!" The little monks around seemed to be colluded to speak with one voice.

At this time, the sound of the board sounded, and it was time for everyone to turn off the lights and go to bed.

The abbot Chen looked down and said, "Go back. This matter will be resolved tomorrow morning and promise to give a satisfactory answer to the monks in the temple!"

In the face of the master's anger, the monks reluctantly dispersed. Huineng opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he was pulled away by Huiren, and Huitong was also crying and pushed forward.

"Huitong stayed," the abbot said. Huitong heard the words and turned back with tears in his sleeves.

Seeing that the people were almost dispersed, the abbot walked to Murong Yanyan with apologies, "Third Lady, I'm really sorry for today's matter. It was my disciple who taught me that there was no way to make your daughter suffer. Don't worry, I will definitely find out about this matter and never let the noble daughter be wronged in vain!"

With this sentence, Murong Yanyan's anger subsided a little, "How is the abbot going to clear the grievances of the little girl?"

While talking, Huineng has come to him.

"Don't cry," the abbot handed a rough cloth handkerchief. After seeing that Hui could wipe away her tears, he explained to Murong Yanyan: "To be honest, when your daughter was found by the disciples, she was with Huitong. As for the truth of the matter, Huitong must give us an answer.

"Gang, abbot, we really have nothing to do. I'm really waiting for you in the scriptures," Lu Mengji half snuggled up to Murong Yanyan's body, and her legs were still numb and unable to move.

The abbot nodded clearly and looked at Huitong kindly. His little apprentice was the most timid and the most obedient, but he absolutely did not have the courage to do anything that violated the Buddhist rules and regulations, so he was sure that someone must have obstructed this matter.

"Huitong, to be honest, what's going on tonight?"

Huitong's hard-to-stop tears surged out again, but he even shook his head without saying a word.

"What do you think you are going to do tonight?" The abbot was patient, but the muscles on his face were trembling with anger. "To be honest, Master promises not to punish you."

Huitong stared at the abbot in surprise, then stopped crying and asked, "Master, have you forgotten that you let the disciple kneel in the sutra hall?"
