Chapter 162: Strange Poison
Next.
"Donor. Donor."
"What happened?" Liu Yunhua looked at a little monk standing outside the Yunqing Gate. So he went over.
"Donor. It's breakfast for the day. But there was no response in the room for a long time. I don't know ......."
It's long past meal time. But the little monk waited outside the house for a long time. Ask someone else. Liu Yunqing hadn't gotten up at all and stepped out of the door half a step.
Liu Yunhua took the food box in the other party's hand. Thank you, little master. I'll just give it to her with my own hands."
“…… There is a labor giver."
Look at the back that is fading away. Liu Yunhua raised his eyebrows slightly. Walk to the side of the window. Pierced the thin window paper with a fingernail. Bed on the couch. Liu Yunqing slept deeply. The voice of the little monk couldn't wake her up at all.
The door creaked open slowly. Liu Yunhua stepped in. Put down the food box and stand quietly beside the couch and look at the sleeping woman. There was a hint of a smile on her lips. Then he called softly. Younger sister. Sister."
However. Liu Yunqing still closed his eyes. Until Liu Yunhua stretched out his hand and shook her. She opened her eyes faintly.
"Hmm...... Sister Chang."
She sat up slowly. Reach out and hold your forehead." How long did I sleep. What time is it?"
"My sister slept so soundly. Sister Yan is reluctant to call you." Liu Yunhua chuckled. Turn around and speak softly." Hurry up and eat. Breakfast is cold."
Liu Yunqing only felt that his brain was groggy. This sleep made her more and more deprived. It took me a long time to sit up straight." It's weird. Yesterday I rested very early. Why are you still so tired?"
Liu Yunhua thoughtfully set up the dishes and chopsticks for her." Maybe I was scared yesterday. Come. Drink a glass of water first."
“…… Thank you, sister."
In the abbot's room sat a man quietly.
The door creaked open slowly. Feng Ling raised his head. The abbot was stunned. Third Young Master. The old man thinks you're gone."
"The chess game with the master is not finished yet. How can you go."
The abbot smiled meaningfully. Hehe. The third young master still has something on his mind."
He came to the chessboard with determination. Pinch a piece and drop it.
Feng Ling didn't deny it." Lately no wild beasts in the mountains have been allowed to hunt. It's possible that the situation will be even worse than we think."
The abbot was a little surprised." What does Childe know?" In fact, he had already asked the little monk to go down the mountain and inform the nearby hunters. Don't go up to the mountains to hunt these days.
Feng Ling was silent for a moment. The scene of Liu Yunhua meeting the man in black came to mind." Abbot. Why did the two young ladies of the Marquis of Changrong go to Tianfu Temple to pray for blessings?"
"Marquis Changrong's birthday is approaching."
Birthday. I don't know why. A trace of uneasiness welled up in Feng Ling's heart. Is there any connection between this?
"Master. Oh no."
Then. There was an urgent exclamation from outside.
As soon as the door opens. A little monk rushed in sweating profusely." Master. Our field ......"
At the junction of Rinzi and Tenfukuji Temple is a fertile field. This is where the temple grows vegetables. However. The originally green vegetable fields are now lifeless. The fresh vegetables that should have been received were actually black and withered. None were spared.
Along with the dark brown earth, it turned a frightening dark black. Suddenly, someone wailed. I saw several little monks fall to the ground with painful faces. Their fingers appear blue-purple in different ways. The body convulsed incessantly. A white ...... overflowed from the corners of his mouth
"Don't touch the dirt."
Feng Ling stretched out his hand to block the people behind him, away from this strange field. The crowd immediately understood what had happened. Those little monks were poisoned. That's because they looked at the vegetables. Touched the dirt.
The whole field was polluted and poisonous. Feng Ling and Abbot Yan glanced at each other. Immediately order this place to be cordoned off. Don't let anyone else in the temple step in."
The abbot looked around. Immediately pulled Feng Ling's sleeve. There is too much sight here. I'm afraid that Feng Ling will attract the attention of some well-intentioned people." The third young master should stay away for the time being."
In the house. Feng Ling had two things in front of him. A pile of dirt. A piece of animal meat.
The abbot pushed the door in with a solemn face. He looked up at the man at the table. sighed lightly.
Feng Ling stood up. The abbot smiled helplessly. There was a pity in his tone." That fertile land is no longer needed. I'm afraid of the next few years. I don't need it anymore."
I didn't expect this to happen. Why good soils are poisonous. Wasted that field of grain. And. I wonder if the dead beasts have anything to do with it.
"I'm afraid these two things were done by the same person."
“…… The third young master meant ......" The abbot immediately understood something.
Feng Ling had that disturbing image in his mind. He seemed to have something in mind. Restrained his expression and walked towards the outside of the house.
Night. Tenfukuji Temple is shrouded in an eerie darkness.
A faint squeak. The slender figure cautiously appeared on the path next to the temple.
Liu Yunhua clutched his sleeves tightly. She hunched over and walked in small steps. Out of the corner of his eye, he watched vigilantly. However. The dark road didn't frighten her. Her eyes were hollow but determined. It was as if I had turned into a remote path with the determination that I had to finish it.
Dark. A pair of sharp eyes followed the figure closely. Feng Ling's eyes flashed. It turned out to be exactly what he expected.
I saw the woman in front of me coming to a courtyard where no one was around. There is a well in the courtyard. She looked around for a while and then came to the well. Feng Ling clearly saw her take out a small bottle from her sleeve. Pour a drop of something into the well. Then he carefully screwed the lid and put it back into the sleeve.
Wait until she's gone. Feng Ling stepped forward silently. Several possibilities flashed through my mind.
Why did Liu Yunhua poison him. If she did both of these things. Start with the beasts of the woods. Then poison the fields of the temple. Finally poisoned in this well. So what is her purpose. Is it aimed at the people in Tenfukuji Temple?
Not like. Tenfukuji has no grievances with her. She had no reason to do that.
Or is it said. This qiē was all instructed by the man in black. But what will the purpose be?
Feng Ling only felt that this matter would not be so simple. It won't. It is related to Yunshu. If that's the case. Then I should have informed her earlier.
No. Is it suitable for me to meet her again now? Feng Ling is not clear. As. Wait until you find out before you sue her. Liu Yunhua is still here. Clues can be found in her.
……
Early morning.
"Donor. Donor."
Liu Yunqing's outside the house. The little monk touched the back of his head suspiciously. Why do the benefactors in it always sleep until three poles in the past few days? And no matter how much you wake up, you can't wake up.
"Little master."
The little monk turned around. Sure enough, I saw Liu Yunhua.
What's even stranger is . Every time I meet this benefactor. Help yourself get breakfast in.
Liu Yunhua naturally took the food box in his hand. Smile slightly. The little monk bowed." There is a labor giver."
Turned around and was just about to leave. I was called." Wait a minute. Little master."
"What does the donor command?"
Liu Yunhua looked at his face. There was a slight pause. Today. But what's going on."
The little monk didn't understand what she meant. The other party quickly explained with a smile. Isn't there something strange going on in the temple these days? The little woman was a little scared."
I see. The little monk saluted again." Donors rest assured. Master Abbot has set out to investigate the matter. Today is a good day."
“…… That. Did the master find something?"
"This ...... The little monk doesn't know."
Liu Yunhua took a deep breath as if relieved. That's right. There's well water in the yard around here."
"There is a well in the Garden of Pure Heart. The donor can find it by following this path. The well water is sweet and refreshing. It's just that the weather is slightly cold. Donor if needed. The little monk can boil some hot water." The little monk is thoughtful. But Liu Yunhua seems to be very persistent in that well.
"I don't know if your temple can drink that well water on weekdays."
"Several uncles use the well water to make tea on weekdays."
Liu Yunhua knew it in his heart. After thanking him, he stepped into the house with a food box.
It's different from the old days. Liu Yunqing on the couch was still sleeping deeply. Liu Yunhua didn't call her again. Just sit quietly at the table. Pay attention to the movement outside.
However. The day was peaceful. Until sunset in the western mountains. Liu Yunhua still didn't hear what she wanted to hear.
The woman on the couch finally reacted a little. Liu Yun sat up quietly. Just staring blankly ahead. The corners of Liu Yunhua's mouth hooked slightly. Push the breakfast that was already cold at hand." Younger sister. It's time for dinner."
There was no warmth in her smile.
Liu Yunqing didn't speak. Instead, he was very obedient and got off the bed. The footsteps are oddly steady. I sat down quietly.
"Have a cup of tea." Liu Yunhua took the teacup on the side unhurriedly. I poured some water into it. Stirred it with his own nails. But Liu Yunqing didn't seem to see anything. Reach out and pick up the teacup and drink it. A touch of tea spilled from her mouth.
Liu Yunhua smiled. Take out your own handkerchief and gently wipe it for her." Good job."
In the Garden of Pure Heart. A few little monks were doing something around the well. Liu Yunhua came slowly with the quiet woman behind her. Her expression changed slightly. Nothing happened all day. Could it be that it was discovered?" What are a few little masters doing?"
"The donor is here to fetch water." Their gaze fell on Liu Yunqing's stunned face. The doubts are only fleeting.
Liu Yunhua smiled. Oh, yes. I heard that the water of this well is sweet. It's just right to go back and make some tea."
The little monks looked helpless." Donor. The well water is undrinkable."
"Why?" Liu Yunhua's heart chuckled. No one noticed the panic in her eyes.
