The night is deep, there is no starlight, and the night wind blowing through is cold, which seems to indicate that the spring cold is quietly the whole door, but in the quiet A-Ma temple where the tourists are scattered, it is full of vitality, the trees are green and green, the pool water is blue and clear, and the rows of red lanterns hanging in the corridor are extremely eye-catching, and the night breeze blows, swaying gently.

A-Ma Temple is the first of the three major Zen monasteries, and is also one of the famous oriental temples in the Niang Gate, it is located at the west foot of the A-Ma Mountain at the southern end of the A-Ma Temple, it is the oldest temple in the A-Ma Gate, built in the Ming Dynasty more than 500 years ago, the A-Ma Temple is dedicated to the escort of the sea god Mazu, the Min language Mazu is the meaning of the mother, good men and women have come to burn incense and worship, praying for peace and auspiciousness.

A-Ma Temple is an ancient building with Chinese national characteristics, a pair of stone lions in front of the temple are exquisitely carved, the expression is majestic, the form is forced to be true, the legend is the masterpiece of the Qing people three hundred years ago; The flowers and trees in the temple are scattered, the rocks are vertical and horizontal, the scenery is quiet, it is composed of four buildings of the main hall, the stone hall, the Hongren hall, the Guanyin Pavilion, between them with stone steps and the winding path, there are the cliff stone carvings inscribed by the celebrities and dignitaries or literati on both sides of the winding path; There are large halls, stone halls, Hongren halls and Guanyin pavilions in the temple, all of which fly eaves in the air, and the momentum is magnificent.

At this moment, in the middle of the night, the high-haired Mrs. He was dressed in a gorgeous black shirt, stepping on a pair of flat shoes, with the fashionable and beautiful He Keren, and eight black-clad bodyguards who were with her to protect her, graceful and luxurious, in front of Mrs. He was a monk in cloth, bowed over, and walked quickly to lead the way.

Under the guidance of the monks, the group passed through the moon gates, and after several turns, the sight in front of them suddenly opened up, it was a rather strange house, standing in the open space, there was not even a single tree around, and it was quite an eyesore, but around the house were full of guards with loaded guns and ammunition, and their hands pressed the gun bags with vigilant expressions as if they were facing a great enemy.

Around this small house, there are more than 30 He family bodyguards, each of whom has an energy-saving lamp behind him, so that they can look around the situation, although the night is dark, but because of the illumination of the lights, and there is no tree blocking, the temple is not visible, and it is destined that no strangers will approach.

The leader of the house guard is the captain of the He family guard, Zhao Benqiang, he has a cold face like a door panel, and his clothes are tied up and down without any care, showing a typical military character who is strict with himself, when he saw Mrs. He walking from a distance, he hurriedly greeted him and bowed and said: "Mrs. He, you are here to visit and gamble. The king's, right? ”

"Do you need to ask?"

Mrs. He, who was holding her daughter's palm, frowned slightly, and shouted unceremoniously: "What year did I not come here to meditate and recuperate?" Which year not to bet. The king washes the cheesy worship of the previous lady? Mrs. He looked at Zhao Benqiang with a threatening look and said, "You are worried about gambling. The king's safety is a good thing, but who am I? How could I be a bad gambler. What about the king? ”

"What's the point of asking me that every time? Don't quit yet! ”

Zhao Benqiang had no feeling for Mrs. He's rebuke with a wooden face, and his tone was as respectful as ever: "Madam, I didn't mean that, how could I think that Madam and Sister Xiao were betting against each other. Does the king have bad intentions? It's just that Mrs. and Sister Xiao came over at this time, and I feel a little curious about professionalism, if you offend Mrs. and Sister Xiao, please bear with me! ”

He Keren raised his eyebrows and snorted: "You don't mean this when you say it, but what you do is like this, otherwise why are you blocking our way?" I tell you, we came here to visit my father because we received an anonymous phone call that someone with malicious intentions would attack him, and we were worried about his safety, so we came to see if he was okay! ”

"By the way, tell him to be careful!"

Mrs. He wanted to say if there was a little vixen in it, but when the words came to her mouth, she gritted her teeth and swallowed it back, without letting these indecent words spit out, she has been able to gain a firm foothold in the He family over the years, and has become a woman who can't be replaced by Mrs. He, in addition to the bargaining chips in her hand, and then there is her knowledge, she never points fingers at her husband's behavior.

Whether it is sacrificing the former wife or supporting the rest of the women, she pretends to be indifferent, because she knows clearly in her heart that when she can't hold the man's heart, it is to keep her status, lose people, and you can't lose money anymore, otherwise you will be empty of people and money, and as long as you stabilize your status, the rest of the women will not be able to bargain.

There are not enough benefits, those women will leave sooner or later, thinking of this, Mrs. He calmed down her feelings, took over the topic of her daughter and said lightly: "But what people said is right, we just received a warning call, so we got up in the middle of the night to visit and gamble. Wang An'an, avoid people with ill intentions from attacking him, you should know that the situation is unstable now! ”

Zhao Benqiang's face still didn't have much emotion: "Madam and Sister Xiao don't worry, bet. The king is very safe, we protect him twenty-four hours a day, there are a hundred brothers in the guest room fifty meters away, no one can hurt the gamble. Wang, and I monitor the entire environment, whether it is Dongying people, or Lao Maozi, or the anti-China alliance, they will definitely not be close to gambling. King! ”

Speaking of this, he also exhaled a long breath: "It's just that I'm really sorry at this time, bet. The king was reciting the scriptures, and he ordered that no one should disturb him until three o'clock, and that if you wanted to see him, you would have to wait for half an hour! So I'm really sorry, please wait a while with Mrs. and Sister Xiao, or go back to the temple room first, when the time comes, I'll let someone call you! ”

"Or bet. When the king comes out, I will convey the kindness of Mrs. and Sister Xiao! ”

Seeing Zhao Benqiang's tendon appearance, Mrs. He snorted angrily, a little dissatisfied, but thinking that the other party was also for her husband's good, she suppressed the anger in her heart at the moment, and said in a cold tone: "You are really responsible, even my wife is not unaccommodating, okay, I will wait for him for half an hour, and I will praise you for your due diligence and let you gamble. The king rewards you well! ”

Zhao Benqiang responded lightly: "Don't dare!" Then he asked people to bring two chairs and politely invited Mrs. He and He Keren to sit down: "Madam, Sister Xiao, please sit!" ”

Mrs. He and He Keren did not drop off their seats, but turned around and scanned the empty surroundings to pass the time, there were no superfluous objects in their field of vision, except for a foreign ship stone carved with the image of an ancient sea ship, and on the mast of the ship hung a flag with a banner written on the river, which is a picture of smooth sailing that people love, and it is said to have a history of four hundred years.

"By the way, why haven't you seen the sea?"

Mrs. He exhaled a long breath, and always felt that something was missing in the process of waiting, and then patted her forehead and asked Zhao Benqiang, Hai Baichuan is the old man of the He family, and he is also the backbone, compared to Zhao Benqiang's dedication, she wants to see Hai Baichuan control the overall situation, and according to the past practice, Hai Baichuan should also keep vigil here tonight.

Seeing Mrs. He looking at him, Zhao Benqiang shook his head lightly: "The sea steward came once in the afternoon, and then left in a hurry, as for where he went and what he did, only he and Mr. He knew, I am just a captain of the guard, I can't know the traces and tasks of the sea steward, so I can't answer Mrs.'s questions, and I ask Mrs. to bear with me!" ”

"Bang!"

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of car crashing in front of them, and when Mrs. He and their expressions were slightly stunned, they saw that the closed door was knocked open, and then a broken car, like a mad cow, rushed up, and approached here with a puff of white smoke, Zhao Benqiang's eyes were cold, and they all pulled out their guns and shouted: "Stop!" ”

"If you don't stop, you'll shoot!"

Zhao Benqiang asked people to intercept the car, and at the same time asked people to protect Mrs. He and He Keren, and at the same time asked his cronies to mobilize the bodyguards fifty meters away, when he issued three commands in a row to stabilize his position, the smoking car also crashed into the boulder and fell down, and then, the door was knocked open, and a white man fell out of it, covered in blood:

"Don't shoot, it's me, I'm Haibaichuan!"

The white man shouted with difficulty: "The deaf and dumb man wants to kill Mr. He!" ”

"Boom!"

When Zhao Benqiang and the others recognized that the white man was Hai Baichuan secretly relieved and asked people to help him over from the open space, the car that hit the boulder suddenly exploded, and a flame rose with thick smoke, stimulating everyone's eyes, and at the same time, the boulder was also blown into chaos, making Zhao Benqiang and them subconsciously lie on the ground.

Hai Baichuan and several others were overturned by the air waves, and they all spit out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground.

Zhao Benqiang shouted at Mrs. He: "Get down!" In this panicked explosion, Zhao Benqiang suddenly saw a black shadow stepping over them, and rushed towards the house where He Zihua was, and began to think that it was the guards warning He Zihua, but he quickly smelled that something was wrong, and there was a sound of the card, which was the sound of the door locking.

Zhao Benqiang was excited, why did he lock the door? Why lock the door! Thinking about it again, although he was lying on the ground just now, his ears and eyes were still fierce and vigilant, but that guard was silent, stepping over himself and the others, and he didn't notice it at all, this was almost impossible! The man is not a guard, the man is,

"Protect Mr. Ho!"

Zhao Benqiang's hair stood upside down, regardless of the flying gravel and flames, and did not care about the pungent smoke, he pulled out his gun and kicked the door at a speed that he had never had before, and the weight of his body played a key role at this time, with a loud bang, the door was kicked and collapsed, and he flew out of the frame.

Although he reacted quickly, it was just the scene in the room, but it made him stiffen and kneel upright.

Seeing this, He Keren, who followed closely, directly let out a terrible scream: "Ahhh

He Zihua, bayonet on his back, covered in blood!
