Chapter 128: Security
Yuan Hui's heart is vomiting blood at this time!
Bao'an Temple has always had a good reputation, and even the national teacher Tian Lingzi has stopped, and specially praised this place for retreat. Naturally, since then, incense has flourished, and the money for sesame oil has also risen to the point of softness. And the monks are not having a good time!
I didn't make much money today, and I was a lot of bad luck.
Although I didn't expect these noble ladies from the capital to immediately bring short-term benefits to the temple, but don't bring bad luck, right? It's only been half a day, and there have been many disasters in the temple, and there has been no peace outside the temple, so I almost want to vomit three liters of blood to show my grief and indignation.
Lu Lu would drink tea quietly and slowly according to Pang Zi, and of course his eyes also noticed Gu Yao's every move.
Seeing her girl quietly go out and come back softly to whisper to her, Ji Er Gu Yao's eyes drifted over, and then floated to everyone present, and finally focused on Yuan Hui's face.
Could it be him? This is also Lu Lu's self-question.
The person who helped her must still be in the temple.
According to the method of elimination, if there is a master in this pile of servant women secretly helping, there must be a reason, right? For her to be an enemy of Gu Yao? Shangguan Mansion and Duan Mansion will definitely not, Chang Mansion is possible? But when the slave acts, will the master be completely unaware? Mrs. Chang and Chang Fangwen have no different colors at all.
No, the master was not one of the servants of the temple.
What about Yuan Hui? There are warrior monks in Bao'an Temple, and it is not uncommon for him to host some martial arts, right?
But...... Will he make a move?
Lu Lu lowered his eyes and took a sip of tea, and after gratitude, he was more surprised.
Who helped her in the shadows? And a flaw is not revealed? Is he or she also trapped in the temple and can't go down?
The two of them had their own thoughts, secretly pondering, and this moment was quiet.
Outside the hall, there was a sudden sound of heavy boots stomping on the ground.
Everyone's hearts were raised, and in extraordinary times, surprise was greater than joy!
As soon as the light dimmed, a tall and slender figure that appeared first was Duan Mian.
'Whew~' Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Ah Mian!" Duan Min stood up and stroked his heart with joy.
Duan Mian hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, and said with a solemn face: "Auntie, it's okay." Reinforcements have arrived, all enemy forces have been captured, and they can go down the mountain and return to the city. ”
Mrs. Gu recited the Buddha first, and her expression was relaxed. Xi: "Buddha bless, it's okay." ”
"Huh? Brother, are you alright? Duan Wanluo leaned over to see the blood stains on Duan Mian's light purple robe and exclaimed.
Duan Mian understated: "It's okay." ”
Then he said to Yuanhui: "There is Master Lao Yuanhui." ”
"The old man has just done his duty."
Gu Yao happily ran over, wanting to pull Duan Mian. With a smile in his mouth, he said, "Cousin Shizi, I know that you will definitely be able to repel the scheming young people." I've always believed in my cousin. ”
Duan Mian skillfully dodged her away and said to Duan Min: "Auntie, without further ado, please go down the mountain as much as possible." ”
"Got it."
Duan Mian's eyes searched towards Lu Lu.
Lu Lu met his gaze and handed him an approving look, but Duan Mian lowered his eyes and shook his head almost inaudibly.
What do you mean? Is security temporary?
Duan Min and several other ladies left first under the escort of Duan Mian, and some mothers-in-law and girls could only leave behind when they packed up.
The ladies finally went out of the temple gate with their wives.
Lu Lu opened his eyes and saw that there were many more people dressed as guards.
It's been most of the day. Reinforcements just arrived?
The sedan chairs outside the mountain gate are not there.
The ladies and ladies had to walk down the long steps, but nothing else, Gu Yao first complained: "Why are the sedan chair girls under the mountain?" ”
"Be quiet." Shangguan Jue has been practicing riding and shooting, and her foot strength is okay, so she rolled her eyes.
"I can't walk." Gu Yao looked at Duan Mian, who was supporting Duan Min.
Shangguan Jue pouted: "Let your girl carry you." ”
"Me?" She really wanted Duan Mian to come over and carry it, but how could she be embarrassed? People don't support their parents, but they turn their backs on her? It's impossible just to think about it.
Lu Lu and Lu Mingrong don't need to help Pang Zi, they have her own personal girl to support them carefully.
Looking carefully step by step, Lu Lu found that the yellow mist that was originally shrouded had really dissipated cleanly. There was no smell in the air at all.
The stairs are over. Where the carriage was parked, there were officers and soldiers who slipped away, and not a single carriage was missing.
Duan Min looked at Duan Mian: "This? What about horse-drawn carriages? ”
"Someone fished in the muddy water and drove away." Duan Mian replied succinctly.
Mrs. Gu said uneasily: "Then how do you go back to the city?" ”
"Wait a minute."
Within a moment, dozens of wagons rushed over.
Lu Lu took a look. Laughed.
The rich gentry led by Lu Jing came, took their families from all over the place, drove the carriage, and respectfully welcomed the frightened noblewomen to get on the car and return to the city.
At this point, Duan Min and the others breathed a sigh of relief.
The carriage was not, it was just an object. It's good that people are okay!
The ladies came first, then the ladies, and then the girls......
Taking advantage of this chaos, after Duan Mian sent Duan Min, he flashed to Lu Lu, who was waiting.
"Miss Lu, you're right. In the city, something almost happened. ”
Lu Lu motioned to Chuncao and Xia Wen to block the view of the others, quietly moved to the side, and asked in a low voice, "What's the change?" Don't you collude with the enemy to frame you? ”
"No, Master Chang ......" Duan Mian paused and didn't continue, but shifted his brows and said with a deep look in his eyes: "The spies I sent to deliver the letter failed to enter the city, so the reinforcements were delayed. ”
"Didn't make it to the city?" Lu Lu was taken aback and guessed: "You mean that these people and the countrymen also set up a secret post outside the North City to intercept?" ”
It's so good to talk to smart people, it's easy to understand, and there's no need to talk nonsense.
Duan Mian gave her an approving look.
"Then the fire ...... in the back mountain," Lu Lu asked.
"I let it go." Duan Mian said in a low voice: "If you even crack the poison gas, you can simply catch it all." I sent the elite into two teams. One team is ready to rush down the mountain, and the other team sets fire to lure the snake out of its hole. ”
Because the enemy is dark and I am clear, I don't know how many troops the other side has, and it has been so stubborn, it is better to take advantage of the preparation for a major counterattack and simply set a mountain fire. In this way, the enemy at the foot of the mountain thought that the fire set by the accomplices in the back mountain could be attacked by fishing in troubled waters; Although the enemy in the back mountain has been standing still, mainly cutting off Duan Mian's back road, but when they saw the fire for no reason, Duan Mian's people were making a noise and only cared about fighting the fire, and the opportunity was rare, and they would definitely jump out to grab a credit.
Therefore, the purpose of Duan Mian's fire is to expose all the enemies and kill them all.
Lu Lu sighed lightly and said thoughtfully: "The method is good, but, aren't you afraid of guessing wrong?" What if, you are short on manpower, and the other party has a large number of people in the shadows? ”
The corners of Duan Mian's mouth raised slightly, and he said lightly: "No." With the location of Yicheng, they definitely can't transfer a large number of people to arrange it. ”
That's right, no matter how much you want to capture the people of the Duan family, no matter how much effort you put into arranging this qiē, the manpower can only be few and fine. If it was a large number of people, it would have attracted the attention of all parties a long time ago.
"By the way, how do I see so many more guards?"
"Yes, Chang Gongzi came over with additional troops."
"Huh? How does Chang Gongzi know? Didn't you say that the letter didn't reach the city? Lu Lu was shocked again.
Duan Mian pointed to the green smoke still rising from the back mountain, and said calmly: "First, the mountain fire." The letter could not be delivered into the city, but the city guards could see the fire on Phoenix Mountain. Second, there is an appointment. ”
"I understand the first point. What does the second point mean? Lu Lu glanced back at the direction of the back mountain that had been extinguished, but there was still thick black smoke.
Duan Mian looked at her with dark eyes, muttered a little, and said in a deep voice: "According to Chang Kewen, the prefect received an order from one party and learned that something had happened in Bao'an Temple, so he hurriedly sent guards to support. (To be continued.) )
PS: I'm sorry, these two chapters have a little more words, and the paragraphs have been written a long time ago, so it's troublesome to change, so that's it.
