It was an old official in the city who had always worshiped and worshiped the Buddha. Because he was frightened by the rumor of the monster digging out his heart, he was timid and thought of going to the Jinshan Courtyard, which has become famous in many temples in Hangzhou in recent years. A few talismans for Anzhai to exorcise evil spirits came back.
Fa Hai, the abbot of Jinshan Temple, received him personally.
After hearing the old man's request, Fa Hai personally drew two talismans to exorcise him, and assured him that with these talismans, the evil spirits that have been raging in the city these days must not have the guts to go to his house.
In the process of chatting with the old man, he said with a little emotion that according to his observations in the past half a month, the heart-throwing monster that is currently active in Hangzhou City does not seem to be like the one from earlier. That tiger demon is cultivating with the help of the human heart.
After all, if this monster digs out his heart for cultivation, then the frequency of his digging out his heart should not show a decreasing trend.
After expressing such a judgment, Fa Hai said again, from his point of view, the identities of the objects chosen by this monster are also very interesting. It seems that he deliberately chose people like beggars and gamblers. Even if he is dead, he will not cause too much social turmoil.
During the jokes, Monk Fahai also made several guesses about the many rumors that are widely circulated in the city of Hangzhou.
One of them is to say that the demon responsible for this case should be like the fox demon in the story, with a human identity as a cover.
And the reason why the frequency of the other party's heart-piercing will gradually weaken, and the reason behind it, maybe the reason why this monster will attack the people in the city and do evil things such as tearing out the heart and lungs should be due to its own Something went wrong in the practice, and I want to use the innate essence stored in the human heart to recuperate.
These words were originally nothing more than a casual chat between Monk Fahai and this old official.
But when the veteran returned home with the two talisman seals given by Monk Fahai, and while showing off with several old friends, he recounted these conversations between himself and Monk Fahai.
So it didn't take long for Monk Fahai's remarks to spread throughout the streets and alleys of Hangzhou City.
And because the status of the monk Fahai is very good, he is the abbot of Jinshan Temple, and there have been glorious deeds of performing miracles and suppressing evil spirits.
Therefore, compared to the rumors about monsters with heart-throwing monsters circulated in the city of Hangzhou earlier, the remarks from the monk Fahai soon became the mainstream in the conversations of the people of Hangzhou after dinner.
After all, when it comes to monsters, eminent monks such as Zen Master Fahai of Jinshan Temple can definitely be regarded as professional.
As a result, the direction of public opinion in the entire city of Hangzhou has changed.
Furthermore, it was also mentioned in Monk Fa Hai's remarks that this heart-eating demon wanted to repair the injury by refining the essence contained in the human heart, and it may have taken the form of a human being. The appearance of a human being.
Therefore, the people in the city, who were still in a state of watching the excitement, inevitably became insecure.

Chapter 1312
When the rumors caused by Monk Fahai's remarks became more and more intense, Li Gongfu, who had been in charge of the heart-wrenching case, naturally heard some words.
After all, the news came from Zen Master Fahai, the abbot of the dignified Jinshan Temple. No matter how you think about it, there should be some truth in it.
Therefore, after Li Gongfu reported the situation, the prefect of Hangzhou only thought about it for a while, and then directly decided to order Li Gongfu to lead the yamen servants in the yamen. As a person, do a systematic investigation.
It would be best if we could find traces of the demons. Even if we couldn't find them, doing a survey of the conditions of the people in the city would serve as an important reference for the prefect of Hangzhou to formulate plans that would benefit people's livelihood.
Li Gongfu and others made such a big commotion in the city, unless they are the kind of people who really don't hear what's going on outside the window, otherwise it's hard not to hear something.
Murong Bai had already dispatched Bai Mei to keep an eye on the progress of the case, let alone at his home, there was a Xu Xian who would tell his teacher cleanly and carefully if he had anything on his mind.
Therefore, Murong Bai knew about this new rumor that was caused by Monk Fa Hai's words very early on, and he also knew about the storm that Li Gongfu and others made with great fanfare and brought a crowd of horses all over the city.
However, compared to others, Murong Bai's focus was not on Li Gongfu's actions here, nor did he expect that Li Gongfu and others could really find any useful clues through such a series of actions.
Murong Bai's attention was only on what Monk Fa Hai said.
"This dead thief is bald, it seems that the drunkard's intention is not to drink."
Sitting under the gazebo in the backyard garden, drinking a sip of iced sour plum soup, Murong Bai smiled and turned his head to look at Bai Suzhen who was sitting next to him with the same smile.
Xiaoqing has never been idle, there is such a big bustle in the city, how could she not go to see it.
She only left the house with Baimei early in the morning, and she still hasn't come back yet.
Therefore, Murong Bai and Bai Suzhen can have a rare quietness, and no chattering Xiao Qing will disturb their rare world of two.
It's a pity that the successive incidents that happened in the city made it difficult for Murong Bai and Bai Suzhen to chat about the past and the moon. What's more, because of what Monk Fa Hai said, Murong Bai suddenly felt a little dissatisfied in his heart. Good hunch, and in this incident, I smelled a bit of conspiracy.
He spread his hands helplessly, sighed softly and said to Bai Suzhen, "It seems that my pretending to be sick gave him a chance to do something again."
"I just don't know if there are people from Fa Hai and the Buddhist sect hiding behind the incident of the heart monster."
Bai Suzhen heard the worry hidden in Murong Bai's words, she smiled and picked up Murong Bai's words, and said, "Although Fa Hai has a fierce temper, he is also a Buddhist disciple after all, and he has some compassion in his heart."
"If it is said that he wants to use this incident to plot against us, there should be a lot of possibility, but if it is said that he even planned this heart-wrenching case, I am afraid the possibility is not too great."
Bai Suzhen's words were reasonable, but Murong Bai shook his head lightly after hearing this, and retorted, "But it's still possible after all."
Bai Suzhen said again, "But maybe, Fa Hai just said it casually, and didn't mean to point the sword at us?"
Murong Bai asked back, "He has been silent for such a long time, if Fa Haizhen is ready to live in peace with us, do you believe it?"
Having said that, both of them fell into silence at the same time.
When I heard Fa Hai's remarks that the demon who devoured his heart this time might be trying to use the innate energy contained in the human heart to make up for the injuries caused by improper cultivation, no matter whether it was Murong Bai or Bai Suzhen, only the first Immediately, he got in touch with Murong Bai, who had been showing a sickly posture since last year, and had already put on the persona of a sick and weak scholar.
After all, it is impossible for Fahai to say such a sentence without a reason, and there is indeed an irreconcilable contradiction between them and Fahai.
During the question and answer with Bai Suzhen, Murong Bai gradually smoothed out the few guesses in his mind.
He suddenly shook his head with emotion, and said from his mouth, "Public opinion."
Murong Bai gently shook the porcelain cup in his hand, and the sour plum soup in the cup was rippled by him, which also reflected Murong Bai's not so peaceful heart at the moment.
But he only heard him say in a deep voice, "First plant a seed in the hearts of the people."
"Then release clues step by step, leading Li Gongfu to find the so-called truth, and discover that the one who eats his heart is a seriously ill monster like me."
