Xichang and his party stopped outside the main hall of the temple.

Minglan ordered the secret guard to wait here, and asked Qin Zhong to carry the lantern to lead him forward and get closer.

Outside the hall, he could already see the slender figure surrounded by the dim flickering candlelight.

She stood in the center of the temple, with her back to Minglan, facing the huge mutilated statue of the Buddha in front of the temple.

Different from the dress when she met in the afternoon, she was wearing a red gold silk peony flower long-sleeved gown at the moment, a big red smoke yarn pleated skirt under her body, a five-color Ruyi silk silk ribbon tied on the thin waist that was not in her hand, and a high Wangxian bun on her head, and the double-branch gold step shake worn in the morning was inserted next to the bun.

This bewitching red body is like a blazing flame, which makes Minglan immediately think of the wooden lotus flowers he saw on the road when he came, under the cover of the endless empty and silent dark night, their colors that are enough to light up half of the sky are both eye-catching and mysterious, making people feel terrifying for no reason at a glance.

Looking at Gu Yunxi's fiery and evil back in a daze, Minglan suddenly tightened in his heart.

At this moment, he looked at her in his eyes, and he couldn't control the thought of the most ferocious and vicious ...... in folklore The Lady in Red!

With another violent shudder, Minglan shrank his slender neck into the collar nailed with five-colored tourmaline beads. With one mouth, a puff of cool white smoke erupted from the mouth.

The hairs were raised, and a sense of unease and foreboding that he had never felt before enveloped him.

"Yun Guan'er ......"

Tentatively calling out to the strange fiery figure in the hall, his voice was weak.

She didn't answer, didn't look back, still standing motionless at the front of his vision, maintaining the posture he had seen at first, as if ...... Frozen by an invisible force!

Beads of sweat ran down Minglan's cheeks, and his teeth chattered.

Syllable! Bang –

The temple bells rang in vain, and the solemn and distant echoes echoed in the night, especially clear in the eerie silence. With the sound of the bell, flocks of night birds fly out from the sky above the temple in all directions, fluttering their wings.

Minglan was almost frightened, shivering all over his body, and his breath was short.

The deserted temple, where did the bell come from at this hour-

The extreme frightening finally caused a nameless fire, and Minglan began to resent Yun Guan'er who agreed to come here with him, and even suspected that these terrifying scenes were ghosts made by her!

"Qin ...... Qin Zhong, bring someone in and take her down for me-" Minglan raised his hand and pointed directly at Gu Yunxi's back, his face full of anger.

There was no movement behind it.

Minglan turned around in surprise, but saw a terrifying huge cobweb hanging on the crooked-necked cypress tree in the yard at some point, and the guards who came with him were all entangled in the cobweb, their facial features were distorted, and their life and death were uncertain, as if they had seen something extremely terrifying before they passed out......

Minglan only felt that his scalp was numb, and when he turned around again, the main hall of the temple was already full of green light.

The candle flame that was still burning orange and yellow became dark green and strange at this time, as if it was a ghost fire from hell. Surrounded by this terrifying light, Gu Yunxi finally turned his head slowly.

"Ming, Governor, Lord......"

The long call was poignant and miserable, sounding like the undead of hell were sobbing.

"Wow-"

Minglan only caught a glimpse of Gu Yunxi's half miserable green face, and was so frightened that the three souls lost two and a half, howled hoarsely, and wanted to run back.

At this time, the back road has been blocked by a lot of fog. His limbs went limp, Minglan fell to the ground, and his whole body no longer had the slightest strength to move, so he had to wait for the dense fog to disperse and slowly swallow his body.

"Help! Save ......"

Minglan opened his mouth and shouted, but his chest was so stuffy that he couldn't breathe, and the scenery in his field of vision was constantly melting and blurring......

Leng Qingtang flashed out from behind the dilapidated statue of the Buddha in the main hall, dressed in a neat black robe, with flowing black hair.

Flying and jumping off the incense case, he walked to Gu Yunxi's side with a sly smile, standing up with his back hand.

"Overseer, what did Gonggong Ming see, and he actually scared himself like this?!"

Gu Yunxi walked closer to Minglan, who had fainted on the steps outside the hall, and bent down to take a closer look, wondering.

Leng Qingtang looked straight at the past and explained with a contemptuous smile:

"I mixed the icing you made with 'Seven Spirits'. This kind of medicine foam is not toxic if taken alone, it is a kind of tonic that calms the nerves, but it is the most taboo wood lotus powder. Once a person takes the Seven Orifices and then inhales the wood lotus powder, it is bound to produce strong hallucinations. On the way to the northern suburbs, Minglan must pass through a forest of lotus trees. In the afternoon, I asked you to deliberately hint to him that there were rumors of ghosts in Seifuji Temple, which caused him to hallucinate horribly. ”

"Then he won't be scared to death, will he?" Gu Yunxi was pale-colored when he heard this, and he covered his chest with his hands.

Leng Qingtang disagreed:

"No, he and his men passed out only by our smoke, and will wake up in two hours. A few of us were fine because we had already taken the antidote before we came out in the evening. ”

Gu Yunxi suddenly realized.

No wonder the Overseer poured her a cup of hot tea before changing her costume and setting off, and it turned out that there was an antidote to restraining smoke in it. Gu Yunxi glanced at the Overseer's face, then bit his lower lip, and lowered his eyes gloomily.

Even if she has too much affection for him in her heart, the fact that he quietly drugged the pastries she made without explaining it in advance always makes her feel uncomfortable thinking about it.

With her hands clasped inside her cuffs, she muttered in a bitter whisper:

"Governor, you drugged Gonggong Ming...... Why don't you explain this to me first......"

Leng Qingtang's expression was stunned, as if he didn't expect her to have such a reaction. With an unnatural smile, he leaned closer to her and coaxed softly:

"If you tell you beforehand, I'm always afraid that you'll be scared. Next...... Next time there is something like this, I will definitely discuss it with you first, okay? ”

Just as they wanted to take her into their arms, Xiao Xiaoshen and Yuan Qian stepped into the main hall. When they went up the steps, both of them raised their legs and stepped directly over Minglan's body.

Xiao Xiaoshen smiled proudly when he saw Leng Qingtang:

"Overseer, the Seven Spirits Scattered given by Imperial Doctor Jiang are too good, and they directly scared Gonggong Ming down!"

Leng Qingtang nodded and asked Yuan Qian, the head of the ten blocks:

"What happened to those ants in the West Factory?"

"Don't worry, Governor, sleep properly!"

Yuan Qian shook a few egg-sized silver beads on his hands, and there were two deeply cute dimples with a baby smile:

"Together with those who came to step on the spot in the afternoon, they were all put down by our Xiaoyao Fruit. You and Yun Ya get into the carriage, here, just leave a few of them to us. ”

The silver bead in Yuan Qian's hand was a hidden weapon filled with a sufficient amount of smoke. When you hit the ground, the shell on the surface shattered, and the smoke inside would emit out. Because of its round and smooth appearance, it is often called "Xiaoyao Fruit" by people on the road, and one is enough to make ten cows sleep all morning.

"Well, go back to Bentu and get a reward!"

Leng Qingtang's mood was very comfortable at the moment, and he threw a hearty sentence to his subordinates, and pulled Gu Yunxi out of the main hall.

In the courtyard, Cheng Wanli and Jiang Xiong, the head of the seventh block, had already put down the guards of the West Factory hanging from the trees one by one and lined them up on the ground. Jiang Xiong had been in the troupe before entering the East Factory, and it was not difficult to get some strange props.

Jiang Xiong smiled and kicked Qin Zhong, and said to Leng Qingtang:

"Overseer, there is really a living person in this group of wrecks in the West Factory who was scared to death by us!"

"Oh? Dispose of the corpse! ”

"Yes!"

Leng Qingtang glanced at Qin Zhong's shifting facial features, but he didn't recognize him as the presumptuous guard who wanted to compete with him in the East Factory at the beginning.

When Cheng Wanli inspected Qin Zhong's corpse, he took out a small roll of red cloth from his clothes, and looked at it carefully by the moonlight, and his expression suddenly changed greatly.

"What's wrong?"

The strange appearance of the Thousand Households Lord did not escape Leng Qingtang's powerful phoenix eyes, and he walked towards him with Gu Yunxi.

"It's okay...... It's okay! ”

Seeing Gu Yunxi, Cheng Wanli was even more embarrassed, holding the cloth roll and blushing for a while.

Leng Qingtang understood, and motioned for Gu Yunxi to go back to the carriage first, and hide alone with the Lord Qianhu.

"Master, don't be angry after you see it, Minglan's eunuch is really not a thing!"

Cheng Wanli lowered his voice, said to Leng Qingtang with a red face, and rolled the cloth in front of his eyes.

In an instant, Leng Qingtang stopped talking, and an angry expression appeared on his handsome face. Gritted his teeth and glared at the two objects on the red cloth, and the deep eyes suddenly rolled into a stormy wave. Sure enough, Minglan relied on these two pickled objects, I don't know how many little eunuchs and little palace maids have been harmed in the palace, and now he has a crooked mind about Yunxi-

"Come with me!" Leng Qingtang angrily ordered Cheng Wanli, and the two returned to the main hall again.

Xiao Xiaoshen, Jiang Xiong, and Yuan Qian laughed and lifted two gong buckets and were about to pour them on Minglan, when they saw that their own overseer had returned, they hurriedly said:

"Overseer, this place is filthy, you should quickly hide from the side!"

Leng Qingtang's eyes were vicious, he shook his head at Minglan on the ground, and ordered his subordinates in a deep voice: "Take off his clothes." ”

"Master, you can tell your subordinates what you want to do, don't get your hands dirty."

Cheng Wanli looked at the overseer, and clenched the red cloth roll in his hand fiercely, and the green tendons on the iron fist burst out, and he was also angry by the two things in the cloth roll.

Gu Yunxi is less than sixteen years old this year, and in his eyes, he is a half-old child, how could Minglan's eunuch come up with such a perverted way to hack her-

Leng Qingtang's face was tense, and his gaze with infinite anger stabbed straight at Minglan, and his killing intent was revealed.

"Didn't Minglan give Yunxi chrysanthemum earrings, he must be a flower lover......" he said in a gloomy and slow voice: "Let's use the guy he brought now...... Give him back one too! ”

"Yes! Be! Cheng Wanli couldn't help but laugh in his admittance, almost laughing, and secretly said in his heart, his own overseer is simply ruthless, he really can't afford to hurt, he can't afford to hurt......

——

Gu Yunxi sat on the wheel of another carriage and waited for the overseer, and there was always unspeakable anxiety in his heart.

finally saw him and Cheng Qianhu walk out of Qingfeng Temple safely, and her heart hanging high was finally in place.

"Girl, let's go back!"

As soon as he saw Gu Yunxi's bright face, the many resentments and resentments in Leng Qingtang's heart dissipated in an instant. Flying into the carriage, he curled the corners of his lips at her, and his smile became more and more gentle.

Bending over to enter the car with her, he suddenly straightened up with his keen hearing, and looked around with a wary frown.

"Overseer, what's wrong?" Gu Yunxi was puzzled.

"Nothing, let's go!"

"That'...... What should I do with the earrings that Grandpa Ming gave me? Gu Yunxi held the pair of gold earrings in his palm and asked the overseer.

Leng Qingtang said casually: "Keep it!" Maybe I'll be able to use it in the future! ”

Gu Yunxi, the Overseer and Cheng Wanli rode together, Xiao Xiaoshen and the two stoppers changed into clean clothes in the car, and the two carriages left in front of and after.

After all the people and horses of Dongchang were evacuated, a white-clothed figure flew down lightly from the ridge of the main hall of Qingfeng Temple, and there was no sound when his feet touched the ground.

It's a great effort!

He is the young man who has a relationship with the people of the East Factory in the Baoyue Building-

Looking in the direction of the carriage leaving, he pursed his lips and chuckled, and said to himself:

"That girl is so funny! It's true that where people are, they will be messed up everywhere......"
