At the same time, the meditation room in the backyard of the temple.

In the deep night, only the window of the room in charge of Master Kuye was lit, and the courtyard outside the door was crowded with terror-looking monks in Tsing Yi, as if something terrible had happened.

Hearing the news, several senior monks from the temple hurriedly broke into the presiding room without saying a word, only to see Master Kuye in a robe lying on the bed with his eyes closed and his face blue.

"Senior Brother Kuye, what's wrong?" The first Bitter Zen in the Prison of the Prajna Temple strode to the side of the bed and looked at the face of the Master of Kuye, and then stretched out his hand to probe his pulse, and his eyes sank suddenly-"It's not good, this is poisoning!" ”

As soon as this remark came out, the whole house was shocked.

You must know that Master Kuye is a high-ranking monk, and when it comes to martial arts, he is also one of the top masters in the rivers and lakes, who has such a great ability to poison Master Kuye unknowingly?!

"Quick, block the courtyard door! Don't let any suspicious person sneak out—" Several of the senior monks hurriedly ordered.

After instructing his disciples to close the door of the courtyard, Kuchan quickly helped his senior brother Kuye up, and then joined another monk to sit cross-legged on the couch and began to use the gong to force the poison.

The white mist produced when the True Qi flowed continued to evaporate from the top of the three of them, but Master Kuye's face was still bruised, and the situation was very critical, and it lasted for more than half an hour without the slightest improvement.

In desperation, they had to put the person back on the bed, and several senior monks were suddenly anxious, and they didn't know what the source of this poison was, so they didn't have any way to deal with it.

"A few senior brothers, let's go out first and let Senior Brother Kuye have a good rest, it's useless to be anxious now that it's getting late, we can only wait until tomorrow after dawn to make plans." The deputy temple Kuga said with a sad face.

Everyone thought about it, so they retreated from the presiding room, intending to go to the front yard to investigate the whereabouts of the murderer.

However, just as everyone had left the host's quarters, a figure sprang out from behind the tree, stepped up the stairs lightly, and pushed open the hidden door......

The flickering oil lamp could not illuminate every corner of the room, and a black shadow was cast on the face of the monk who was unconscious due to the poison in his body, and the person who came to hold the back of the head of the bitter leaf master with one hand and pinched the corner of the soft pillow with the other hand and quickly pulled it away, and then stuffed the pillow that brought the identical appearance back under the kuba skull.

After doing this, the man flashed out of the room like a whirlwind that came and went without a trace, and disappeared into the night in an instant......

A few days later, Baicao Villa.

Yin Yin, the owner of the village, known as the miracle doctor, received news from the temple that the abbot Master Kuye had been hit by a strange poison and his life was in danger, so he made a special trip to ask her to go for treatment.

Because her parents had inherited the love of Master Kuye in this generation, she didn't have much excuses, so she simply packed up and set off with her two disciples.

After starting from Baicao Villa, I quickly rode all the way, and soon entered the territory of Tongcheng, where the temple is located.

However, on this day, when she and her two disciples passed through the mountain road that must be passed from Tongcheng to Mount Meru, they found two masked men in black armor standing on the left and right at the intersection in front of them, and they knew that they had been waiting here for a long time.

"Phew!" The disciple of Baicao Villa, who was in charge of driving the car, grabbed the reins and looked ahead, "Who are you?" Why are you in the way here—"

The man in black on the left stepped forward and bowed very politely, "May I ask if it is the owner of Baicao Mountain Villa?" ”

Hearing the other party's question through the door curtain of the carriage, Yin Yin's heart suddenly sank, and before he could stop it, he heard the disciple driving the horse in front of the carriage reply bluntly: "So what? ”

There was a "whoosh", and there was no movement outside.

Immediately afterwards, a large area of bright red blood stains spread on the curtain, like a blood-colored poppy blooming.

Not good!

Yin Yin jumped off the ground with his hand over the crossbar in front of the car, only to see that the throats of his two disciples had been cut and fell out of breath in front of the car, while the man in black who was originally standing at the opposite intersection was gone.

Looking around vigilantly, he suddenly felt a chill in his back and turned his head sharply.

I saw that the two black-clothed men were lurking on the top of the carriage in the posture of cheetah predation, and seeing Yin Yin notice, one of them pulled out the short knife at his waist and flew down - seeing that the other party's blade reached the door of the eye, Yin Yin subconsciously dodged with a twist of his heel, and just dodged a blow.

In a hurry, she hurriedly took out the medicinal powder hidden in her sleeve and threw it at the two black-clothed people-"Wow!! ”

Hit by the corrosive and toxic powder, the two men in black immediately hugged their heads and screamed, falling to the ground and rolling.

Seeing this, she hurriedly turned around and untied the reins on the carriage and led one of the horses out, but just as she was about to fly on the horse, she felt a dull pain in the back of her head, and she was knocked unconscious directly......

……

Cangzhou, Imperial Palace.

Dressed in a brocade robe, the handsome Yu Fengxian paced back and forth in the study with a solemn expression, his slender palm clenching the urgent secret report he had just received, and the crumpled letter paper because he had worked too hard showed that he was anxious at the moment.

Since he went to Jinling Villa to participate in the birthday banquet some time ago, Chaolu has not been able to calm down, and finally found out where Chaolu went, and received news that the heads of many sects have disappeared mysteriously recently, and the entire martial arts people are panicking and urgently need someone to stand up and uphold justice......

"Young master!"

The black-clothed shadow guard flashed into the room silently, and finally knelt respectfully behind the Wind String.

"What?" Yu Feng Xian put away the letter paper and turned his head coldly.

"Master Kuye, the host of the Praruo Temple, is highly poisonous, and Yin Yin, the owner of the Baicao Mountain Villa who asked for treatment, also disappeared inexplicably on the way to the Pranya Temple......"

What the?!

Yu Fengxian's eyes flashed, and his right hand holding the table stiffened imperceptibly, even the temple ......

Moreover, the whole thing seems to have a lot of strange places - not to mention how a person with strong martial arts like Master Kuye was poisoned, just talking about Yin Yin's disappearance is already very incredible, Baicao Villa has rarely participated in the affairs of the rivers and lakes, why did someone immediately think of asking Yin Yin for help as soon as Master Kuye was poisoned? And the matter of the Demon Sect coming to stir up the situation in Jinling Villa was a clear provocation, but what was their purpose in doing this other than to demonstrate to the various sects in the Central Plains?

This qiē seems to be unrelated, but it is so coincidental in terms of timing, if his guess is correct, then these things are a chess game carefully designed by someone hiding in the shadows......

He clenched his fists involuntarily, then turned to the shadow guard and ordered, "You continue to stare at the side of the Prajna Temple, and report back as soon as there is a situation!" ”

"Yes—"

After watching the shadow guard leave, Yu Fengxian strode out of the study.

"Young master, where are you going?" Seeing that Yu Fengxian looked in a hurry, the old housekeeper Uncle Zhang hurriedly chased after him.

"I'm going out on a long trip, if someone comes to the house to look for me these days, just say that I'm unwell and inconvenient to see guests." After settling with the butler, he went straight to the stables and picked the fastest of them.

Asaka, you must wait for me!

……

The sky was cloudy and thunder rumbled.

Just after lunch, when I left the yard, I saw that the sky and the earth were already dark, and there was a tendency for black clouds to overwhelm the city. Chaolu hurriedly helped Guixiang put away the clothes in the courtyard, trying to bring everything into the house before the heavy rain.

Luckily, it rained when the last one was harvested, and then it was pouring down.

"Sister, don't be busy while you rest next to me, just leave it to me here!" Worried that Chaolu was tired, Guixiang hurriedly walked over and snatched the large wooden basin containing her clothes in her hand.

Unable to scramble, Chao Lu had no choice but to sit aside, "Why didn't you see Brother Da Niu?" ”

"Oh, he was passed by the village chief early this morning, and he will be back later." Guixiang hurriedly brought the clothes she had just taken back into the room, answering absentmindedly.

However, looking at the gray world outside the house, Chaolu was inexplicably depressed in his heart, and there was always a bad premonition that something would happen.

Erdan didn't come to learn kung fu from her today, and it stands to reason that the kid is never absent on weekdays, regardless of wind and rain......

I don't know if she has prenatal depression as her belly gradually bulges, her heart is always empty, and she doesn't feel good about seeing anything, for example, at this moment, she has a strong sense of unease.

Perhaps in response to her hunch, the courtyard door was suddenly pushed open, and then a group of people broke in violently.

"The village chief?"

Guixiang ran out of the room with a frightened face, and when she saw her husband standing dejectedly on the side, she immediately realized what was happening, but she still tried to calm down and stepped forward, "You, you are ......"

Listening to their conversation, he also knew that the people on the other side were the heads of the village, but Chaolu didn't understand why these people looked at him with an almost contemptuous look?

"Hmph, how can you take in such an unchaste and unclean woman!" The village raised his eyebrows coldly and accused, glancing at Chaolu's already slightly bulging abdomen with disgust.

"Village, this, this girl is lonely and helpless in a foreign land, we can't see death without help!" The big cow earnestly stood in front of Chaolu and persuaded everyone.

"That's not going to work! If you take her in, you will ruin the atmosphere of our village—"

When several people were at a stalemate, a teenage boy swayed out with a smile, and Chaolu immediately recognized that the other party was the bear child who was taught by himself when he bullied the second egg, it seems that he is still a high-ranking cadre, and most of today's events are also fanned by this kid, right?

Hearing the young man's words, the village chief became even more angry, and raised his hand to Chaolu's distorted expression, "No matter what, you must get rid of her today!" ”

"Village Chief!" Da Niu and Guixiang were so anxious that they were about to kneel.

I really couldn't see it, Chao Lu gritted his teeth and stepped forward to grab Da Niu and Guixiang who interceded for him, and said coldly: "You don't need to rush, I will leave by myself!" ”

After speaking, he turned around and took a deep look at the simple and kind couple behind him, and smiled gratefully, "Brother Niu and Sister Guixiang, thank you for taking care of me during this time." ”

Finally, he turned around and stepped out of the house with a calm face, and stepped into the pouring rain.
