The group of pilgrims who followed Master Wuxing hesitated outside the courtyard gate. Mu Xiaofeng simply motioned to Leng Yue to invite all the people in, since they were so "hearted" and curious about the result, it was better to be a good person to satisfy them.

After explaining Leng Yue, she turned around and entered the living room.

After Xiao Ban entered the yard, he actually looked manic and excited, in addition to screaming, he also sniffed around very directly, and then went straight to the kitchen.

Master Wuxing and the gray-clothed monk naturally followed closely behind Xiao Madara, and the rest of the people seemed to hesitate in the courtyard, and then followed the monk and walked to the kitchen in unison.

Leng Yue watched coldly as the group of people rushed to the kitchen, and couldn't help but whisper worriedly, "Miss? This seems strange. ”

"Not sure?" Mu Xiaofeng glanced at her, and when she nodded, she stood up with a smile. However, her casual and casual posture was obviously in stark contrast to Leng Yue's nervousness, "Then let's go over and have a look." ”

Her appearance was leisurely and calm, but Leng Yue looked at her like this, not only did she not relax, but she also felt faintly uneasy in her heart.

"So many people are rushing to the small kitchen together, I'm really worried about ......" Mu Xiaofeng paused with emotion, Leng Yue's heart beat wildly, and she quickly turned her eyes to look at her, but saw the girl sighing slowly, "I'm worried that the kitchen will be squeezed by them, and we will have to take another silver to repair it then." ”

"You'll have to look at them closely."

Leng Yue was really made to cry and laugh by her divine turn, and couldn't help but increase her tone and call again, "Miss! ”

Mu Xiaofeng glanced at her lightly, but he didn't tease her anymore, and took the lead in stepping out of the threshold and going to the kitchen.

At this time, Qingruo was busy with Zhou's mother in the kitchen for lunch. Mu Xiaofeng came to the Big Buddha Temple to recuperate, except for Qingruo and Leng Yue, he only brought Zhou's mother to be responsible for cooking. has nothing to do, Qingruo also likes to help in the kitchen, and Leng Yue basically stays by Mu Xiaofeng's side.

So when Master Wuxing and the gray-clothed monk rushed to the small kitchen with a large number of people, Qing Ruozhen was shocked by this sudden surprise.

The little pecular, screaming, became even more excited as he approached the kitchen.

As soon as it rushed in, it was swirling around the garbage basket resting in the corner of the kitchen. It spun around and let out a whimpering sound similar to sadness. In addition, as if it was afraid of attracting the attention of others, it looked at the garbage basket from time to time, and looked up at the door from time to time, as if waiting for the gray-clothed monk to come in.

When Madara suddenly rushed in, Qingruo was taking the lid and preparing to take out the stewed soup. Seeing this, he couldn't help but be surprised, "Mother Zhou, where do you see this dog coming from?" Look at it like this, it's almost fine, right? ”

Mother Zhou helped put the lid aside, and was about to speak, but when she saw that the light was suddenly blocked by a group of people at the door, she opened her mouth and turned her head to look at Qingruo with some trepidation.

"Senior brother, Madara has been circling around the garbage basket in the kitchen." Standing at the door, the tall gray-clothed monk only had to glance into the small kitchen to see what the little spot was doing.

Qing Ruo immediately stood up straight, looked at the group of people blocking the door defensively, and said with a slight displeasure, "Who are you?" Why all of a sudden? ”

"This girl, please make it convenient," it was Master Wuxing who came out of the crowd, and he bowed to Qingruo very modestly, before he said briefly, "Your young lady has agreed to let us come here, and please don't stop the girl." ”

"Mademoiselle agrees with you coming here?" Qing Ruo repeated loudly, his eyebrows were clearly suspicious, "What are you doing in the kitchen?" ”

"Qingruo," Mu Xiaofeng's soft and beautiful voice interjected leisurely, "let the masters in." ”

Although Qingruo was full of doubts, she would not question her own young lady's words. However, she looked at the large crowd of people who were even dimly lit, frowned and put the stew back into the pot, and then took the lid over and covered it, and then stepped aside to let Master Wuxing and them in.

Master Wuxing quickly glanced at the kitchen a few times, the kitchen space is not large, and everything is basically clear at a glance. Especially at this time, Zhou's mother was preparing lunch, and those dishes and medicinal foods were still raw. It's just that it's all cleaned and sorted and put aside the blue seeds, and it's waiting for the fire to be cooked.

The golden turtle in the Big Buddha Temple, which is over 80 years old, naturally did not appear in these neatly arranged dishes.

However, Madara kept barking around the garbage basket in the corner.

"Senior brother, why don't you take this garbage basket out of the open space and inspect it?"

First, the outside is brighter, and secondly, the place is empty. Master Wuxing glanced around the small kitchen and nodded in agreement.

After they took out the garbage basket, Qingruo stood next to Mu Xiaofeng inexplicably nervously, looked at those people around the garbage basket vigilantly, and asked in a low voice, "Miss, what are they doing here?" ”

Okay, digging through the garbage basket?

Do you want to find out some incriminating evidence from this?

Thinking about it, Qing Ruo immediately secretly despised herself. Phew, Miss didn't do anything bad, where can I find any evidence of guilt.

Mu Xiaofeng smiled, glanced at the people surrounding the garbage basket, and said nonchalantly, "Who knows, let's look down." ”

The gray-clothed monk personally took the garbage basket out of the open space outside the kitchen, thought about it for a while, and turned the garbage basket over completely, and poured all the garbage inside into the open space with a "bang".

Seeing this, the gray-haired flower-spotted dog was extremely excited and raised his legs and pounced directly on the pile of garbage. Lower your head, sniff with your nose, and pick up your forelimbs with force.

After a while, he ran to the gray-clothed monk as if he was biting a large piece of the whole dark cyan thing, looked up at him, and then wagged his tail vigorously.

Leng Yue, who vaguely guessed something, saw this, and her face immediately changed slightly, "Miss?" ”

Mu Xiaofeng smiled faintly, waved his hand in a calm and breezy manner, and said softly, "Don't be impatient." ”

"Senior brother," the gray-clothed monk saw what Xiao Ban was biting in his mouth, and his voice changed in shock for a moment, "This is ...... Turtle shells. ”

Master Wuxing approached and took a closer look, and then his face changed. He suppressed his anger, stood up straight, walked up to Mu Xiaofeng, handed the thing in his hand to the girl, and asked in a cold voice, "Master Mu, please explain, what is this?" ”

Qingruo was standing next to Mu Xiaofeng, and although she didn't slaughter this thing before, the soup was stewed by her, and now the stewed soup is still warm in the pot.

She frowned and looked at the things handed by Master Wuxing, and then said unhappily, "This master, may I ask what you mean by this?" ”

"My young lady is here to recuperate. Of course, my young lady is kind and compassionate, and will never kill in the land of Buddhism, it is His Majesty Chrysostom Yuyan who promised my young lady that she can nourish her body with medicinal diet. ”

She glanced at Master Wuxing, and said in an aggravated tone of displeasure, "Master is holding the shell of the money turtle in his hand, and I took the red ginseng berries and the money turtle to make stew for Miss an hour ago, is there anything wrong with this?" ”

Before Master Wuxing could speak, the out-of-town girl who followed closely was already gasping in shock, and exclaimed, "Money Turtle? ”

Qingruo raised her head and glared at the girl from other places with some annoyance, and couldn't help but whisper, "What a fuss, it was said that my young lady was here to recuperate, and I didn't kill in the land of Buddhism, and my stew of this soup was completely in accordance with the order." ”

The girl from other places stood far away, and she couldn't hear Qing Ruo's dissatisfied muttering, but Master Wuxing was different, he was less than three feet in front of Mu Xiaofeng.

"Lord Mushi," he frowned, his face was forbearant and solemn, "the poor monk knows that you are here to recuperate, and there are hundreds of things that can be nourished, why do you have to use the money turtle to stew soup?" ”

Mu Xiaofeng blinked his bright and clear eyes and looked at him blankly, "I don't understand what Master Wuxing said?" Could it be that Buddhism does not want to kill, only the money turtle? ”

"Miss Mu, it's all this time, what garlic are you still pretending?" A sneer suddenly intervened in the crowd, which immediately attracted everyone to turn their heads and look at each other.

The girl from other places was obviously a lively person, and when she saw the person, she was surprised before the others again, "Ah, it turned out to be you, Madame." ”

Mu Xiaofeng stood still and didn't move, looking at the noble lady from afar and smiling indifferently, "Mrs. Qiu, please make it clear, what garlic did I pretend?" ”

The woman dressed as a noble lady in a red dress is the lady of the Marquis of Changyi, that is, the mother of Mu Xiaofeng's ex-fiancé and her future ex-mother-in-law.

Seeing such a strange and familiar face at first glance, Mu Xiaofeng remembered the scene of Qiu Fu coming to the door to withdraw from his relatives in a rare moment.

No wonder the voice was so harsh, and Madame Qiu had been eager to trample her into the mud before. When there is no opportunity, there is still a creative opportunity to see the stitches, and now there is this opportunity, and I don't want to seize it.

Leng Yue stared at Mrs. Qiu silently for a while, and suddenly whispered in Mu Xiaofeng's ear, "Miss, her maiden name is Wang." ”

Mu Xiaofeng blinked, and the shallow playful smile on his lips deepened a little.

Mrs. Qiu seemed to hate her very much for her indifferent attitude, sneered, and actually sneered loudly across the crowd, "The wishing pond outside the Daxiong Treasure Hall originally kept eight money turtles, and everyone knew that those money turtles were treasures of the Great Buddha Temple, and they were eager to worship them as gods on weekdays. ”

She snorted coldly, her proud eyebrows flashed with a trace of resentment, staring at Mu Xiaofeng from afar, and said, "Now that you are secretly instructing your people to secretly catch it and stew it in soup for your own selfishness, and now that the evidence is conclusive in front of everyone's eyes, do you still want to quibble and deny it?" ”

Mu Xiaofeng hooked her lips silently and coldly, she didn't pay any attention to Mrs. Qiu, she only stared at Master Wuxing with clear and bright eyes, and asked lightly, "Master Wuxing also thinks that I secretly caught the money turtle in the wishing pond to stew soup?" ”

Master Wuxing frowned, his eyes shifted from the turtle shell in his hand to the girl's calm eyebrows, and said bluntly, "The poor monk only believes what he sees with his eyes, and asks the donor to give a reasonable explanation." ”

"Explain? What's there to explain! Qingruo couldn't help it, these people questioned her, and she wasn't angry.

But as soon as these people rushed in, they accused Miss indiscriminately with a shell turtle, but she couldn't help but sneer angrily, "The money turtle in the wishing pool is gone, and it just so happens that I also stewed this soup for Miss today, so you think that Miss covets the treasures of the Big Buddha Temple, what is the reason." ”

"What does this girl mean - is this a coincidence?" Although Master Wuxing was displeased with her disrespectful tone, he still patiently asked her in the spirit of clarifying the facts.

When he said this, the corners of his eyes secretly paid attention to the expression of the purple-clothed girl opposite.

But seeing that Mu Xiaofeng didn't show any weakness, he stood in place with a completely indifferent smile. Wuxing knew in her heart that she did not stop her maid from questioning, and what the maidservant said meant on her behalf.

"There are so many coincidences in the world." The fat Mrs. Qiu couldn't listen to it, and interjected in a loud irony, "The treasure of the wishing pool of the Great Buddha Temple was just discovered here, and you just used the money turtle to make stewed soup here." ”

Master Wuxing was also skeptical about this matter, and was silent for a while, and he didn't mean to directly persecute Mu Xiaofeng, but said in a stiff tone, "Since Lord Mu Shi said that this matter is purely a coincidence, then please ask Master Mu Shi to find a witness to come out and confirm that the money turtle you used to stew soup today has nothing to do with the lost one in the Wishing Fountain." ”

Mu Xiaofeng looked at him with an ignorant expression, and asked softly in a sincere and inquiring tone, "May I ask Master Wuxing, is there any special mark for the money turtle raised in the wishing pond of the Great Buddha Temple?" ”

Master Wuxing opened his mouth, but was speechless by her question.

The girl showed a helpless look, sighed helplessly, and said in distress, "This is difficult, I am not a professional turtle keeper, where can I tell which one is only raised in the wishing pool." ”

These words did not directly clear her suspicion, but also did not admit that what she made the soup stew was the treasure of the Big Buddha Temple.

Seeing that Master Wuxing was about to be fooled by her ambiguous rhetoric, Mrs. Qiu became anxious.

"Master Wuxing, don't listen to her nonsense," Mrs. Qiu was so anxious that she shouted directly regardless of her image, "Everyone has searched all over the front hall before, and there is no trace of the money turtle at all, but when I found here, I found that her people used the money turtle stew soup in the kitchen, which was clearly that she had people secretly catch the money turtle in the wishing pool." ”

"Moreover, didn't Master Wuxing say that the dog named Little Spotted has the most sensitive nose on weekdays? Since it came here directly, it proves that nine times out of ten, Miss Mu secretly ordered her people to steal the money turtle in the wishing fountain to stew soup. ”

"I've heard some doctors say that this kind of long-lived golden turtle raised in the wishing pond of the Great Buddha Temple is the most nourishing for people who have been sick for a long time if they are used to stew soup."
