The night passed.
When the sun rose the next morning, a cacophony of sounds arose from the temple courtyard. All around the temple, doors were knocked upon in a flurry, and Li Mi's anxious voice could be heard calling, "Miss Jiang, Miss Jiang!"
Jiang Ruan pushed herself off the bed. As she dressed herself hurriedly, she instructed Bai Zhi to check on the situation outside. After she had put on her coat, she pushed open the door, and the thick scent of blood rushed into the room.
Li Mi drew in a deep breath when he saw that Jiang Ruan was unharmed. The strain was evident in his voice as he questioned her, "Miss, are you all right?"
Jiang Ruan looked at him doubtfully. "What on earth has happened to cause Daren to ask this kind of question?" When she had finished speaking, she craned her neck to see what was happening behind Li Mi's back. With a startled cry, she turned her head and said, with a fearful quiver, "This . . ."
Several bodies lay in a disorderly state on the snowy ground. Blood ran everywhere, as if a massacre had taken place on the Shura field*. Bai Zhi and several others rushed to block Jiang Ruan's view of the gory spectacle and stood in front of her wordlessly.
*Xiuluo chang( 修罗场 ) - lit. Shura Field. An asura in Buddhism is a demigod. A shura field refers to the scene where asura fight to the death, and therefore is used to denote a battlefield with fierce fighting. See and
Li Mi shook his head and said, "A group of thieves came here last night, and this is the scene we encountered this morning. I was worried that something might have happened to you. Thankfully, you are all right."
Jiang Ruan frowned. "That . . . how could it be that I am unharmed?"
"You were probably not their target," Li Mi said grimly. "Perhaps the motive was the usual seeking after revenge, which generally does not harm the innocent. Unfortunately, I need to remain here to investigate this matter. Miss Jiang, my duty lies here. My deepest apologies, but I will stay here today. There is not much farther to go on your journey. I will leave it to the horse guard to accompany you back to the capital."
Jiang Ruan hurried to return the courtesy and said, "Daren does not need to be concerned about me. On the contrary, it is the situation here which is of prime importance as human life is beyond value. And since the murders occurred here, the temple personnel cannot disassociate themselves from the deaths. I wonder if I might be of any use to you here."
