Chen Aiguo was still staying in Xiaoshiwa Village Primary School. When Zhou Shanhu brought Zhao Guoqiang to school, Chen Aiguo was teaching the children. Zhao Guoqiang waited patiently for more than ten minutes. When the get out of class was over, Chen Aiguo slowly walked out.

Zhou Shanhu called out to Principal Chen and introduced Zhao Guoqiang beside him to him.

After learning about Zhao Guoqiang's identity, Chen Aiguo seemed a little vigilant, his attitude was not friendly, and said coldly: "I have told Zhang Yang everything I should say. If you want to know, go and ask him!"

Zhao Guoqiang said: "Principal Chen, Zhang Yang was killed!"

Chen Aiguo was stunned for a moment: "What?"

Zhou Shanhu couldn't help but shed tears.

Chen Aiguo was a little sad when he heard this news. Although he had only had two contacts with Zhang Yang, he had a deep impression of Zhang Yang and thought that this young man was very righteous and upright. He still remembered the scene when Zhang Yang came down from Xishan Temple with Meng Chuanmei's body on his back. Chen Aiguo remained silent and reached out to touch the cigarette.

Zhao Guoqiang took out the cigarette that had been prepared and handed it over, and then lit it for Chen Aiguo. Chen Aiguo took a sip of the smoke and said, "Go to my house and talk."

The two followed Chen Aiguo to his hut. After Chen Aiguo smoked the cigarette, Zhao Guoqiang quickly handed over the other one.

Chen Aiguo was about to continue the fire and sighed, "How could this happen? An accident?"

Zhao Guoqiang said: "It's not an accident, it's a murder against him!"

Chen Aiguo took a breath of air conditioning, and he took another breath and said, "Why does this happen?"

Zhao Guoqiang said: "We are investigating, and this matter has initially identified several suspects."

Chen Aiguodao: "I don't know what can help you?"

Zhao Guoqiang said: "Principal Chen, I want to know about Xiao Guocheng."

Chen Aiguodao: "I don't know anything about Xiao Guocheng."

Zhao Guoqiang said: "According to what I know now, Xiao Guocheng used to be called Xiao Mingxuan, and he once went to the lineup with you."

Chen Aiguo's eyes seemed a little confused: "You asked, it turned out to be him!"

Zhao Guoqiang nodded and said, "It's him!"

Chen Aiguodao: "Zhang Yang once asked about this matter. There were eight educated youths who came to Xiaoshiwa Village to join the team, Chen Tianzhong, Xiao Mingxuan, Shen Liangyu, Wang Junyao, Xu Changde, Dong Dezhi, Min Gang and me. The eight of us came from different places and didn't know each other very well. Chen Tianzhong was our captain and the most handsome one. Xu Changde, the best eloquent one, he was very likable. He got along with Wang Junyao soon after he came here." Chen Aiguo's heart still felt a little painful when he talked about this matter.

Zhao Guoqiang listened quietly to his story and did not dare to disturb him.

Chen Aiguodao: "Dong Dezhi and Min Gang are both children. At that time, their minds were not yet mature. Xiao Mingxuan was the one who disliked the most among us. He had already had a partner before he came to the educated youth site. Of course, this was what we only realized afterwards. Among us, Chen Tianzhong had a big brother style and could unite everyone, but Xiao Mingxuan was an alien. Even if he had time, he would rather cross mountains and ridges to play chess at Xishan Temple. To be honest, we couldn't see through him. He felt that this person was unpredictable and difficult to get close to."

Zhao Guoqiang said: "What did he do back then left a deep impression on you?"

Chen Aiguo thought for a while and said, "To be profound, it was the case when Zhang Jiefang brought people to smash Xishan Temple. Zhang Jiefang was a bully in Xiaoshiwa Village. He shouted and yelled all day long and broke the four olds. When he led a group of young people in the village to smash Xishan Temple, saying that he would drag out the jade Buddha in the Jade Buddha Hall and smash it. It happened that Xiao Mingxuan was playing chess with the abbot there. I don't know what he said to Zhang Jiefang, but he could actually make those people give up the idea of ​​smashing and smashing. I remember when Chen Tianzhong told me that Xiao Mingxuan is very capable."

“What else?”

Chen Aiguodao: "There is nothing else. If there is one, his partner is very beautiful and he is also infatuated with him. He came from afar to see him, but he was lukewarm to others."

Zhao Guoqiang's expression seemed a little disappointed.

Chen Aiguo took another breath of cigarette, and he suddenly remembered something: "By the way, there is another thing. A sutra cave was found next to the Jade Buddha of Xishan Temple. There were dozens of volumes of scriptures, two of which were in Japanese, and no one else could understand them. Only he could understand them. He actually translated all the two volumes of Japanese, and later gave the translated scriptures to Xishan Temple."

Zhao Guoqiang widened his eyes: "You said his Japanese is very good?" After asking, he felt that the question was a bit redundant. A person who can translate Japanese Buddhist scriptures is probably far superior to that of ordinary Japanese.

Chen Aiguodao: "If you still want to know about him, you can ask Monk Jishan, who knows much more about this than I do."

Zhao Guoqiang said: "Principal Chen, I think you should not make any noise about Zhang Yang for the time being. After all, this is his hometown, and I don't want to have too much impact."

Chen Aiguo sighed and said, "I will know sooner or later, but I didn't expect that both his father and son are so short-lived."

After leaving elementary school, Zhao Guoqiang immediately rushed to Xishan Temple. Xiao Guocheng's knowledge of Japanese excitement made him excited. Maybe he began to get closer to the truth. The eight educated youths, Chen Tianzhong, died for many years, Min Gang died in a mudslide while in the army, Xu Changde and Dong Dezhi also died one after another due to corruption cases, Shen Liangyu committed suicide, and three other people still survived in this world. In addition to Chen Aiguo, who was rooted in Xiaoshiwa Village as the principal, Xiao Guocheng and Wang Junyao, what exactly happened between them? What secrets are hidden behind this series of grievances? Zhao Guoqiang's mood became more and more urgent. He was eager to uncover the answer and find out the truth of the matter.

Xishan Temple is located in the deep mountains and the incense is not prosperous, but this is also the reason why the temple survives many disasters and survives to this day. When Zhao Guoqiang and Zhou Shanhu arrived at Xishan Temple, it was already dusk and they heard the sound of dusk drums in the temple.

While wiping his sweat, Zhao Guoqiang said, "It seems that he will still be able to go back tonight."

Zhou Shanhu said, "You're tired after walking for so long. Go over to Secretary Zhang..." When talking about Zhang Yang, Zhou Shanhu couldn't help but have red eyes. He bit his lip and said, "I don't believe it, I don't believe it, I won't believe it if I beat it to death. Brother Zhang just left like this. He is a hero, and no one can harm him with that ability."

Zhao Guoqiang patted his shoulder and whispered: "Don't think about it, we have to do something for him!"

Zhou Shanhu said: "Director Zhao, do you suspect that this person named Xiao is the murderer who killed my Brother Zhang? If it were him, I would have to kill him!"

Zhao Guoqiang said: "Don't say that, don't forget the law at any time."

Zhou Shanhu said: "The law is not omnipotent. If the law is really omnipotent, why are so many people committing crimes?"

Zhao Guoqiang didn't know how to respond to him.

With Zhou Shanhu's recommendation, it was much more convenient to do things. Jishan was very sad when he heard about Zhang Yang's affairs. Zhao Guoqiang asked about Xiao Mingxuan's affairs back then.

All Ji Shan could remember was some fragmented fragments. After talking for a while, the host and the guest talked without much discovery.

Zhao Guoqiang remembered the Japanese Buddhist scriptures that Chen Aiguo mentioned just now, and he whispered: "Master Jishan, I heard that Xiao Mingxuan helped you translate two volumes of Buddhist scriptures back then?"

Jishan nodded and said, "It is true that we found a small sutra cave behind the Buddha statue in the Jade Buddha Hall. There were dozens of precious Buddhist scriptures, two of which were in Japanese, and we didn't understand them. So we remembered to ask the educated youth in the village. In our opinion, they were the most knowledgeable and cultural. Among them, Xiao Mingxuan knew a little. He followed us to lead the temple and spent two days to translate all the two sutras."

Zhao Guoqiang said: "Master Jishan, I have a heartless request. Can I let me see the two volumes of scriptures he translated with my own eyes?"

Ji Shan nodded happily. He brought Zhao Guoqiang and Zhou Shanhu to the Jade Buddha Hall. The Buddhist scriptures of that year have been properly preserved by them. They showed that Zhao Guoqiang was not the original one, but the photocopy. Although they were photocopy, it can be seen that Xiao Mingxuan's calligraphy is quite skillful. Zhao Guoqiang does not understand the meaning of Buddhist scriptures, and saw that there were many annotations and interpretations on the Buddhist scriptures. Ji Shan explained: "These are all written by Xiao Mingxuan, and his understanding of Buddhism is beyond ordinary people."

Zhao Guoqiang looked under the lamp for a while and could not see anything special from the Buddhist scriptures. When he looked up, he saw that the jade Buddha treasure was solemn and exquisitely carved, but there was a bullet hole on the right arm of the jade Buddha.

Zhao Guoqiang was a criminal investigationman and immediately determined that it must be caused by bullet shooting. He approached a little longer. After confirming his judgment, he said: "Master Jishan, if I ask if I disrespect to the Buddha, is the mark on the arm of the Buddha statue left by the bullet?"

Ji Shan said: "Master Zhao's eyes are indeed sharp and he has a clear vision at first glance. Yes, this mark is indeed left by a bullet. Speaking of which, this matter can be traced back to the War of Resistance Against Japan, when the famous bloody battle in Jingshan was launched in the Jingshan area, and the Eighth Route Army and the Japanese Ace Army launched a bloody battle."

Zhao Guoqiang's economic good reminded him suddenly that there was indeed a bloody battle in Jingshan, which played a crucial role in the victory of the War of Resistance. It was Mr. Xue who commanded the battle. Mr. Xue led the two divisions of troops and the Japanese army twice theirs to launch a bloody battle. Mr. Xue was at a disadvantage in the number of people and the weapons and equipment were not as good as the other party, and made full use of his mastery of the local terrain and the precise formulation of tactics to wipe out the Japanese army at the foot of Jingshan. This battle had long been written into a military textbook and formally established Mr. Xue's position in the army.
