The Marquis of Changding stroked his forehead with a headache. Fortunately, His Royal Highness didn't have the spur of the moment to do anything irreparable. Last night the prince was drunk. I don't think I remember much about what happened. In case it is really investigated. That's going to be a tough one.

I finally used the eyeliner that I had been hiding in the palace. disguised Dongfang Rui as a guard and blended in. Originally, he just said that he wanted to see the crown prince with his own eyes. Who knew it would do that kind of thing.

"For my father, I plan to send him to the kingdom of Chen. But before that. To go to a place first. Meet an old man. ”

It's already late autumn. On this day, a strong wind suddenly blew. The temperature plummets.

It's not dawn yet. A low-key carriage slowly left the Marquis of Changding's mansion. And not for a while. Another carriage left through the back door. Successfully drained all the previous eyeliner.

Tenfukuji Temple is located deep in the mountains. At this time, the monks in the temple had changed into thick jackets. The mountain road was covered with a layer of white frost.

The mountain air in autumn has a bit of a cool aroma. The mountain roads are sparsely populated. Several men walked to the temple. Immediately a monk came up to greet him.

"Donor. The host has been waiting for a long time. ”

The Marquis of Changding took off his cloak. "There is Master Lao to lead the way." His face was heavy. He followed the monk to the backyard.

presided over the house. There is a calming aroma in the air. The old man closed his eyes lightly. Holding a string of beads in his hand. Reciting the scriptures silently.

"Host. The donor brought. ”

"Please come in."

The door creaked open slowly. A wave of heat rushed in front of you. "Presiding."

"Master Hou. No see for years. Are you okay. The host smiled kindly. But his face was a little weak.

"Ben Hou is good. Just host your ......"

"The time has come. There is a time for all things to return. "The host has already seen through the red dust. Causal cycle reincarnation. They are all immutable laws and laws in the world. "Master Hou has not changed much from before. The same kamikaze is tough. ”

The Marquis of Changding was melancholy. "Nope. Ben Hou is also old. ”

The two exchanged pleasantries for a moment. He walked over and sat down.

"It's ...... Hosted for so many years. It's still just this one hobby. He remembers the last time we met. also had a whole night with each other.

The host smiled. "Playing chess can cultivate one's self. But it's also easy to get obsessed. It's just that it's been a long time since anyone has played chess with the old man. Since the Third Young Master left. ”

Mention Feng Ling. The Marquis of Changding restrained his expression. "The host said that there are important things to be handed over to Ben Hou. I don't know if it's the queen......"

The monk on the other side nodded. "The old man didn't expect it. You can find such a thing. When the queen left, she left a poem. The old man didn't care. Until a while ago, I found that line of words on the big tree behind. It took a lot of thought to realize the truth. That benefactor really has good intentions. ”

The Marquis of Changding did not speak. It's just a rich brow frowning slightly.

The reason why he became acquainted with the abbot of Tenfukuji Temple. It's all because of the former queen of the Lotus Kingdom. The former queen was kind to him. I still remember that it was also late autumn at that time. A monk suddenly appeared at the back door of the Marquis of Changding's mansion. Holding a baby in her arms, she was still in her arms. He said. This was entrusted to herself by the former queen. I hope to raise this child. Keep him safe. And he also brought tokens. It was the letter and a strand of hair that Feng Ling found in the secret room before.

The monk. It is the presiding officer of Tenfukuji Temple. Now, so many years have passed.

"So to speak. Queen, she is still alive. ”

"The poor monk didn't know that the benefactor was an unknown prophet. Or to leave some thoughts. He paused. In recent days. Hou Ye didn't worry less. ”

Even the host noticed it. There are many faces in Kyoto that should not be there. He pondered it. I felt that it was related to the Lotus Kingdom. And not so long ago I found such a thing. He knew that he had to return the things to the third young master as soon as possible. Otherwise, it can cause big trouble.

The Marquis of Changding sighed lightly. Ben Hou always thinks. It's not that simple. "Lianguo has obviously been immersed in it for many years. Why is there so much action all of a sudden? From when the news came out that Concubine Mei was not dead. He felt as if there was a pair of invisible hands behind his back. A wave of unevenness has risen again and again.

There's something bothering him somewhere. On the contrary, he was even more worried about Feng Ling, who was far away in the Lotus Kingdom. That kid must have had a harder time.

"I wanted to play a few games with Hou Ye. But time is always out of the question. The abbot walked to the couch beside him. Gently pressed somewhere. There was a dark compartment next to the pillow. Take out a box wrapped in yellow cloth from it and return it to the Marquis of Changding. This is according to that verse. Found in the backyard. I also hope that the Hou Ye will be handed over to the third young master. It should have been handed over by the old man himself. But the old man was worried. I can't wait for that time. ”

There was a kind of peaceful smile on his lips. The Marquis of Changding sighed lightly. I took it carefully. A little dust fell from the yellow cloth. It can be seen that it was dug out of the soil not long ago.

"The host is relieved. Benhou will keep it for good life. ”

"Master Hou should go back early. If there is fate. Next. No matter how good the old man is, he is entertaining the Hou Ye. "This thing. It is important to send it to Feng Ling's hands as soon as possible.

The Marquis of Changding nodded slightly. "Take care."

"Take care."

He carefully took the thing into his arms. The Marquis of Changding once again put on his cloak and retreated.

And outside. A man stands under a tree. His gaze suddenly fell on a tree trunk. Puzzled, he leaned over.

How did someone remove a layer of skin from this trunk? It's weird. Dongfang Rui stretched out his hand and gently touched the injured tree trunk. A voice came from behind him. "It's time to leave."

Dongfang Rui turned his head. I saw the Marquis of Changding coming towards him. So fast.

Hou Ye's eyes only stayed on the bark for a second. "Your Highness. Let's go. ”

"Master Hou's affairs are done."

The other man nodded. A monk appeared in front of them. "Two donors. The host asked the poor monk to lead the way. ”

"There's Master Lao."

The little monk chose a path down the mountain. The way you come is not the same as the way you leave. It can be seen that this host is meticulous in handling affairs. Dongfang Rui didn't think much about it. I just think it's cold on this mountain. It's a bit of a gloom. And I always feel empty. It felt like something was about to disappear.

"Wait."

The Marquis of Changding, who was behind him, suddenly opened his mouth. The two people in front of them stopped in confusion.

"Do you hear anything?"

Dongfang Rui and the little monk glanced at each other. Shook his head.

The Marquis of Changding frowned. He looked back at the way down. There's always a strange feeling that lingers. That's right. Birdsong. The intermittent birdsong was gone. It's weirdly quiet.

"Let's go. Let's go back and see. ”

……

"Several donors. Cool on the roof. Come inside and have a hot cup of tea. Listen to the old man explain how Zen is said. ”

Bang. Immediately, several men in black came out of the window. on the roof. The door jumped in. Qi Qi surrounded the old host on the futon.

There was vigilance in the eyes of the people. "Hand over what the queen left behind."

What did the donors mean? The old man didn't quite understand. ”

The man in black at the head smiled coldly. "If you don't want to see us bloody in Tianfu Temple. Hand things over right away. Less nonsense. ”

The host was silent for a moment. Then he took a deep breath. "I didn't expect that. It's been a few years. The old man is about to break his vows again. ”

What the.

The monk on the couch suddenly changed his momentum. Just listen to the boom. He slapped his palm on the chessboard beside him. Countless chess pieces flew like sharp blades towards the men in black. A whirling turn narrowly avoided it. They all showed their weapons. "Look for death."

The movement here immediately attracted other monks in the Tenfukuji Temple. When the crowd arrived. Several men in black had already fallen.

"Who's coming? Hugh had to be presumptuous in the pure land of Buddhism. ”

However. How could these killers of the Lotus Kingdom be so easy to deal with. I saw a puff of green smoke drifting in. The host was instantly shocked. "Be careful. Poisonous. ”

"Ah......h Several monks in front of them immediately bled and fell to the ground wailing. After a while, he died. The rest of the monks quickly tore their clothes and covered their mouths and noses. At this time. The men in black have already slaughtered them on a large scale.

The host was already sick. The forcible exercise had exhausted him. After supporting it for a long time, it was finally outnumbered. A slap in the chest. He spat out a mouthful of blood and took a few steps back.

"Presiding."

Several monks rushed forward to support him. "Nope. Hurry up...... Let's go......"

"Hmph. I want to go. Kill. Not a single one is left. Dig three feet into the ground and find something. The man in black at the head gave an order. Instantaneous murderous atmosphere.

Suddenly. The cold wind howled. Another group of men in black entered the encirclement. In an instant, the sword light and sword shadow flew with blood and energy.

"Moderator ......"

This voice is...... The presiding officer of the earth opened his eyes and looked. "Ahh Third, the third young master ......"

Feng Ling took off the black scarf that covered half of her face and came to the host's side. Look at his robe, which has been dyed red. "Host. I'm late......"

"Third Young Master. How did you ...... "how could you be here."

"Ahh Your Highness. The man in charge immediately discovered Feng Ling's figure. The formation of all the men in black changed. Now that His Highness has come. Then they have no reason to show mercy. Kill him. You can also deal with the queen.

"Ahem......" The host coughed up blood again. Feng Ling's aura was very weak. That beautiful face was as cold as frost. There is a cold color in his eyes. "There is no mercy for killing."

"Yes."

The two groups quickly fought together. But Feng Ling's side was skillfully protected.

"Host. You hold on......" is about to heal him. The host smiled weakly. "Third Young Master. Don't bother. The old man is the one who will go. It's just a pity. I can't play another game of chess with the third young master......"

Feng Ling held his hands tightly, which were gradually cold and dry. A bitter throat. "Nope. The presiding meeting will be fine. We can still play chess all night. ”

"Things, things have been handed over to Master Hou...... The third young master goes. Go find him...... Just walked a short ......."

"Ling'er......" The shocked voice came from the chaos. When the Marquis of Changding and Dongfang Rui rushed back. I actually saw such a picture. "Moderator ......"
