Chapter 55 ending

In fact, Niu Chuanli and Sha Liang were arrested by the police as soon as they returned to the county seat. The text messages Zhu Neng received, as well as the phone calls he received, were all from the police, but they were passed on through Niu Tradition. It starts with a report from a taxi driver. That day, a taxi driver ran to the police station in a panic, saying he wanted to report the crime.After listening to his incoherent description, the police immediately realized that this was a big case. They began to investigate the matter. First of all, the three policemen found Zhu Neng and the four of them along the mountain road according to the route the taxi driver had given.

The three policemen are the three extra stones. After dawn, the four of them divided into two groups and went to different places.The police did some research and decided to control Niu Chuanchuan and Sha Liang first, and conduct a surprise interrogation. After Niu Chuanli and Sha Liang were arrested, they confessed quickly. After finding out the reason, the three policemen continued to follow Zhu Neng, first to protect him, and second to monitor Bai Jingjing.Some policemen also went to Zhou Dagui's house to investigate the matter of Xuanzang's parietal bone relic. At the same time, the police contacted the police office of Xitian Film and Television Resort and asked them to help investigate what happened to Zhu Yiming when he was in the labor camp, and to investigate Yuan Tiangang.

According to Sha Liang's account, the police determined that Yuan Tiangang had a great relationship with this incident. Everything is going on in an orderly manner. The police found Zhou Dagui's daughter-in-law and talked to her about it.She didn't seem interested, she just listened coldly, not interrupting, let alone expressing her opinion. Finally, the police came straight to the point: "Is Zhu Yiming's Xuanzang parietal bone relic in your hands?" She opened her mouth wide: "What... Sherry?" The police said word by word: "Xuanzang's parietal bone relic."

Her mouth opened even wider: "Those two people came to my house to find... what kind of relic?" The policeman nodded. She murmured, "I thought they wanted Zhu Yiming's compensation." The police immediately grasped this sentence and asked, "Zhu Yiming's compensation? What's going on?" At this time, Zhou Dagui's son came over, and he carefully handed a glass of water to the policeman.His hands were trembling slightly, his expression flustered. All of this was seen by the police. He adjusted his direction: "Uncle, don't be busy, sit down and talk."

"Hey——" He sat down very restrainedly, with his back straight and his hands on his knees, like a wooden man.His hands were white with blisters and covered with chilblains. The police smelled a faint fishy smell on him. "Uncle, do you have fish at home?" He shivered a bit, and said stiffly, "Hey, raising fish." The policeman smiled: "Uncle, don't be nervous, I'm here this time to learn about the situation, nothing else." "Hey—" he agreed. The policeman offered him a cigarette, lit it again, and said, "Uncle, do you know Zhu Yiming?"

He didn't answer, but turned to look at his wife. She sighed and said, "Go to the fish pond and have a look, I'll talk to the police." After she finished speaking, she stood up, walked to a closet next to her, took out a small cloth bag, and put it in front of the police. "Zhu Yiming's stuff is here." The policeman opened the small cloth bag and found some money and a piece of yellowed paper inside.After reading it, he was also a little surprised: "What's going on?" Here is a story she told - In the 1950s, Zhou Dagui worked on a labor camp and watched prisoners.

At that time, Zhu Yiming was also a prisoner in this labor camp. Zhou Dagui is an honest man with a clumsy appearance and has not read much, but he is hardworking and responsible for his work.In the reform-through-labor farm, the person he admired most turned out to be the reform-through-labor prisoner Zhu Yiming. Zhu Yiming was the most knowledgeable person in the labor camp. His favorite book is that he often tells the stories in the village to the children in the village near the labor camp farm.The children love to listen to his stories and call him "Master" affectionately.

So Zhu Yiming was very happy. He compared himself to Tang Monk, saying that he came here from a long distance to spread the theory and save fools. Zhou Dagui also loves to listen to his stories.Gradually, the relationship between the two is no longer a guard and a prisoner, but a friend. Later, Zhu Yiming was released after serving his sentence, but there was no one in his family, and he had nowhere to go.Through someone's introduction, he married a girl from a village near the farm. Not long after they got married, Zhou Dagui was sent out on a mission and went there for a long time. When he came back, he learned that Zhu Yiming had gone crazy and had left the labor camp.

Zhou Dagui began to investigate the matter.It didn't take long for him to figure out that Zhu Yiming's madness was actually related to Xuanzang's parietal bone relic. Here's the thing -- At the wedding, Zhu Yiming drank too much and said drunkenly: "Do you know Tang Seng?" "Of course I know, Sun Wukong's master." "No, I'm not talking about Tang Monk in the movie, but the monk who actually went to the West to learn Buddhist scriptures. Do you know who he is?" "I don't know, who is he?" "He is Xuanzang." After a pause, Zhu Yiming said again: "Do you know Xuanzang's parietal bone relic? Have you ever seen Xuanzang's parietal bone relic?"

"I don't know, I haven't seen it before." Zhu Yiming said proudly: "I know, and I have seen it before." A child suddenly said: "You don't have any!" At this time, Zhu Yiming's face was a little uneasy. He straightened his neck and said, "Who said I didn't!" Everyone stared wide-eyed at him. At that time, Zhou Dagui was also at the scene. After hearing Zhu Yiming's words, he didn't care. He thought they were all drunken words.However, some people did not take these words as drunken words. They believed that Zhu Yiming had the relic of Xuanzang's parietal bone in his hand.

They are Zhu Yiming's father-in-law's family, they are superstitious and dull. They thought that since Xuanzang was Tang Monk, and since eating Tang Monk's meat could lead to immortality, then Xuanzang's parietal bone relic must be a very magical thing.They also thought that when Zhu Yiming and their daughter got married, they should take out this magical thing and let them "use it". So they locked Zhu Yiming up and forced him to hand over Xuanzang's parietal bone relic. At this time, Zhu Yiming had been married for less than three months. Zhu Yiming's new wife, Guan Qiaozhen, also known as Guan Yin, was moved by them and became their accomplice.She had no relationship with Zhu Yiming, and the reason why she married him was because the introducer said that Zhu Yiming would return to the city in the future. Zhu Yiming never handed over the relic of Xuanzang's parietal bone, insisting that it was all drunken talk. Those people beat him, and sometimes they didn't give him food. During this period, Guan Qiaozhen became pregnant. Suddenly one day, their family moved away from the village, saying that Zhu Yiming had gone crazy and they were going to see a doctor for him.No one knows where they went. Zhou Dagui inquired about these things in the village. He has always missed Zhu Yiming. Later, Zhu Yiming was rehabilitated and some compensation was paid.At this time, Zhou Dagui had already retired, so he took these things and started looking for Zhu Yiming, wanting to hand them to him face to face. He was sure that Zhu Yiming was still alive. Many years have passed, and Zhou Dagui has grown old, but he has never found Zhu Yiming.He put Zhu Yiming's compensation and redress notice in the safe of the bank in the city.He thought, this is Zhu Yiming's most precious thing, and there should be no mistakes. About ten years ago, through a distant relative of Zhu Yiming's father-in-law, Zhou Dagui finally got some clues about Zhu Yiming's whereabouts.Holding on to his last hope, he rushed over. He really found Zhu Yiming. It's a pity that at this time Zhu Yiming's mind was already unconscious, and he didn't even know Zhou Dagui anymore. Zhou Dagui chatted with him for a long time, and his mind seemed to be clearer, and he began to cry non-stop, chanting a sentence: I don’t have Xuanzang’s parietal bone relic, I don’t have Xuanzang’s parietal bone relic, I don’t have Xuanzang’s parietal bone relic, I don’t have Xuanzang’s parietal bone relic, I don’t There is no Xuanzang parietal bone relic... Later, when Zhou Dagui was about to leave, Zhu Yiming gave him a teapot. Because he arrived in a hurry, he didn't have time to take out Zhu Yiming's compensation and redress notice from the bank. He told Zhu Neng's parents that after returning, he would go to the bank to take out the things and then send them back. Unexpectedly, after returning home, Zhou Dagui fell ill.He wrote a letter to Zhu Neng's parents, explaining the situation.Zhu Neng's parents were very moved and offered to come to visit him, and took back Zhu Yiming's redress notice and compensation by the way. For some reason, Zhu Neng's parents never came. Speaking of this, her eyes were red, and she sobbed and said: "In order to see a doctor for my father-in-law, I spent all my savings in the family and owed a whole lot of debt. In order to pay off the debt, my old man contracted a fish pond. I followed the town I work in the theater troupe I went to, and when someone has a wedding, we go to perform Yangko to earn a little money. Originally, I didn’t want to withhold Zhu Yiming’s compensation, but my father-in-law is about to die, and the family has no money. What can I do for my father-in-law to attend to his funeral?" At this point, she was sobbing. The policeman comforted her a few words, and then said, "Zhu Yiming really doesn't have the relic of Xuanzang's parietal bone in his hand?" She wiped her eyes and said, "No, my father-in-law said that they investigated this matter at the labor camp before, and finally confirmed that he really does not have this relic." The police went out and called to report the situation to the leader. At this time, the police office of Xitian Film and Television Resort also reported news. They read the previous materials of the labor camp and found that the situation was similar to what Zhou Dagui's daughter-in-law said. Regarding Yuan Tiangang, they also went to investigate. He was wounded, lying on the bed, sighing.After seeing the police, he was terrified, and he confessed everything he had done. Through his confession, the police learned what happened at the Ruyi Hotel that night—— It turned out that the man in the red raincoat that Zhu Neng saw outside the window was Yuan Tiangang, who followed Zhu Neng all the way there.After being discovered by Zhu Neng, he grabbed the window sill with both hands, hanging in the air and shaking shiveringly. He heard everything that happened in the room. Also, Zhu Yiming's family portrait was also sent to Zhu Neng by him.He stole the family portrait from Lao Yuan's house, and he and Lao Yuan are neighbors. After getting the above information, the police held an emergency meeting. Based on the information already known, the police determined that the suspect was not one person, but a group of people. The important thing is that this group of people is not in one place, they are scattered.This has brought great difficulties to the arrest. If they cannot be controlled at the same time, the news will leak out, and it will be difficult to arrest them again. In the end, the police worked out a plan - let the three policemen in Wulibao town appear next to Zhu Neng, and at the same time asked Zhou Dagui's daughter-in-law to come forward and tell Zhu Neng to hand over the relic of Xuanzang's parietal bone at the Earth Temple three days later. he. This is a plan that kills two birds with one stone. First, the police guessed that Bai Jingjing might have misunderstood the three disguised policemen as Zhu Neng's accomplices, and since Sha Liang wasn't by her side, she would be worried and afraid when she was alone, so she might ask her accomplices for help. With that sentence, her accomplices will definitely come over. In this way, the arrest work is much simpler. Second, the three disguised policemen can protect Zhu Neng by his side and remind him so that he can cooperate with the police to complete the arrest. The police asked Zhou Dagui's daughter-in-law to tell Zhu Neng that the relic of Xuanzang's parietal bone would be handed over to him three days later for a purpose.In fact, this was the time the police gave Bai Jingjing's accomplices—three days, enough time for them to come over. There is also the location - Earth Temple, this place is desolate, there are no passers-by, in case of any accident, the innocent will not be hurt. Everything is ready, just waiting for them to throw themselves into the trap. Things went well and the gang were all arrested. Next came the interrogation. Through the confessions of Bai Jingjing, Xu Lan and others, the police learned that the mastermind of this incident was neither Bai Jingjing nor Xu Lan, but the deceased Lao Yuan. Bai Jingjing was right, Lao Yuan was really the director.But she lied about one thing, she was not Guan Yin's granddaughter, but her granddaughter-in-law, the daughter-in-law of Guanyin's grandson Lao Yuan. Back then, Guan Yin's father, Zhu Yiming's father-in-law, took Zhu Yiming and his family out of the village and came to Guan Yin's grandmother's house, where they stayed. The reason why they left the village was because they found that Zhu Yiming had the intention of letting go, as if he wanted to tell the whereabouts of Xuanzang's parietal bone relic. They didn't want the people in the village to know that they would be jealous and plan on this thing in the future, so the whole family moved away. At this time, Zhu Yiming's spirit became in a trance, and he spoke incoherently, like a madman.At first, they thought Zhu Yiming was pretending to be crazy, so they watched him more closely and questioned him all day long. Zhu Yiming was getting more and more crazy. During this period, Guan Yin gave birth to a boy, Zhu Neng's father.Several years passed, and the boy grew up slowly, but Zhu Yiming never told the whereabouts of Xuanzang's parietal bone relic. They tried everything - Shut Zhu Yiming in a small black room. Influence Zhu Yiming with affection, take him out to play, take family photos, and let him feel the warmth of the family. No food for Zhu Yiming. ... None of these methods worked, and Zhu Yiming still said the same thing: I don’t have Xuanzang’s parietal bone relic. In the end, they were completely desperate. They sent Zhu Yiming back to his hometown, and his son. A few years ago, after Zhu Yiming went crazy, Guan Yin married a man surnamed Yuan under the arrangement of his parents, and soon had a child.Later, she had another grandson, Lao Yuan. These things were all done in front of Zhu Yiming. Lao Yuan is a director. After graduation, he was assigned to work in a film studio.In the film studio, people who can't do anything say they are directors, a lot of directors, like flies in summer. Lao Yuan has been idle. He only made one movie - "Sword of Justice". The funds for filming were pooled by him and several actors.The actors are all his fellow countrymen, or classmates. After the film was filmed, the response was not good and no one watched it. Lao Yuan has a girlfriend named Bai Jingjing, and the two have a very good relationship.They are classmates, and Bai Jingjing has admired him since she was in school. Later, the film studio closed down, and Lao Yuan had no way out, so he had no choice but to go back to his hometown and find a job in the Xitian Film and Television Resort not far from home to raise monkeys. To outsiders, he has never said that he is a director, and he is embarrassed to say so.But he never gave up his dream of being a director. And Bai Jingjing never gave up on him. By chance, Lao Yuan learned about Zhu Yiming and Xuanzang's parietal bone relic from Guan Yin. He suddenly realized that this was an excellent opportunity to turn around—the relic of Xuanzang's parietal bone was invaluable, and as long as he had money, he could continue to make movies. Lao Yuan consulted a lot of information. He found some yellowed newspapers and confirmed that Zhu Yiming was indeed a professor at the former National Central University and had indeed participated in the excavation of Xuanzang's parietal bone relic. At this time, Lao Yuan was sure that Zhu Yiming did have the relic of Xuanzang's parietal bone in his hand. He got into action. He first found his fellow villager Sha Jing. Sha Jing is well-known in the local area - his mouth is sweet, his belly is sword, and he is idle.His girlfriend Xu Lan is not a serious person, she loves vanity and is promiscuous.When she was with Sha Jing, she had affairs with several men.Sha Jing didn't care about these things, but he was very happy because those men would give Xu Lan money. And Sha Jing always has a way to cheat money out of Xu Lan's hands. After listening to Lao Yuan's words, they hit it off. Lao Yuan found Sun Kong again. Because of his strange appearance, Sun Kong lives alone on a nearby mountain, living a life like a savage.However, he also has a physiological need that a normal person should have. Lao Yuan only said one sentence: After the matter is completed, I will help you find a woman. Sun Kong agreed without hesitation. In this way, the conspiracy was staged. In the beginning, they were always worried about money—conspiracies cost a lot of money, because they needed a lot of people to help them tell lies, and doing these things needed money, and they didn't have much money. And since Xu Lan got on the zoo director, the money problem was solved.The head of the garden said that he will pay all the expenses, but he will divide 30% of the things after he gets them. Lao Yuan agreed. However, just when he had found those letters and was about to get close to the answer, Niu Chuanli suddenly appeared in front of him. He was startled and fell down to his death... As soon as Lao Yuan died, Bai Jingjing immediately believed that Zhu Neng ordered someone to do it. She decided to avenge Lao Yuan. At this time, the fire of vengeance had already boiled in her heart, she had already forgotten Xuanzang's parietal bone relic, and only one thought remained: let Zhu Neng pay for Lao Yuan's life. She called and got in touch with a classmate at Xitian Film and Television Resort, asking her to trick Zhu Neng into Ruyi Hotel. At the same time, she contacted a local rogue and gave him some money to kill Zhu Neng. She did not discuss these things with Xu Lan. It just so happened that at this time, Xu Lan realized that Zhu Neng had begun to doubt her.She heard what the woman said to Zhu Neng, and she thought that someone was planning on Xuanzang's parietal bone relic. Xu Lan immediately told Sha Jing about it. That night, Sha Jing also went to Ruyi Hotel, trying to prevent Zhu Neng from meeting that woman.By accident, he died in the hands of the scoundrels Bai Jingjing found. He became Zhu Neng's scapegoat. After Sha Jing's death, Xu Lan was frightened, and she disappeared from Zhu Neng's side.However, some were still unwilling, so they left a note, thinking that Zhu Neng would hand over the relic of Xuanzang's parietal bone. Unexpectedly, Zhu Neng really called and said that he could hand over the things to her. Xu Lan told Bai Jingjing about these things. Bai Jingjing was stunned, she didn't know why Zhu Neng was still alive, but Sha Jing was dead.She called the rogue, but the other party kept shutting down and disappeared. Xu Lan and Bai Jingjing thought that it was Zhu Neng who killed Sha Jing, and even the scoundrel died in his hands. They are scared and want to give up. But Sha Liang disagreed, he is Sha Jing's younger brother.He vowed firmly that he would get the relic of Xuanzang's parietal bone and smash Zhu Neng's body into tens of thousands of pieces. His expression was determined and his eyes were cruel. The two women were moved by his words. Thus, Bai Jingjing appeared beside Zhu Neng... Zhu Neng finally knew why Lao Yuan looked so similar to him, and they were indeed brothers.He also finally knew why his parents didn't want to talk about his grandfather's past—it was an unbearable past. It turns out that there is no Xuanzang parietal bone relic at all, it is just a drunken saying. At this point, the truth is revealed. The conspirators were duly punished. Zhu Neng's life became the same as before - he got up every morning, had breakfast at a roadside stall, took the bus to the zoo, and fed the monkeys.When I got home from work, I ate a couple of bites, watched the news, surfed the Internet, and fell asleep... He feels fulfilled and happy. Niu Chuanchuan was sentenced to three years in prison for theft and wounding. Due to his good attitude in pleading guilty and his meritorious service in assisting in handling the case, his execution was suspended for three years. On the Ching Ming Festival of the next year, Niu Chuanli drove Zhu Neng to Lao Yuan's grave in a second-hand car he had bought. They stood silently for a long time, burned a lot of paper money, and left. It was raining lightly and the wind was strong. As soon as the paper ash floated up, it was hit back to the ground by the raindrops, and it was broken into pieces. Their shoes were covered with paper dust.
