(This chapter says that everyone in the comment area speaks more, and it is so lively and lively!) )

Ciguang Temple on Beifeng Mountain outside Luyang City is the only temple around Luyang.

After driving more than 20 miles, Chen Xiaoting and his entourage came to the foot of the mountain, and the sun was already rising at this time.

Nowadays, the people are very difficult to live, so there are not many pilgrims in Fengshan in the north.

Before arriving at Beifeng Mountain, Chen Xiaoting asked Liu Jianping to set off in advance and blocked all the pilgrims who went up the mountain.

In this way, when going up the mountain at this time, Wang Siniang's mother and daughter were quiet in their eyes.

The mountain road from the foot of the mountain to the top is the political achievement project of a certain political envoy in Yongxi back then, and the road allows the carriage to go up the mountain.

Soon arrived at the mountain gate of Ciguang Temple, got the news in advance, and brought more than a dozen monks in the temple to greet at the door.

The carriage stopped outside the mountain gate, and Wang Siniang, mother and daughter, were helped out of the carriage by the maidservant.

It is rare for nobles to come up to the mountain, which is the gold lord for the monks, so they are very enthusiastic to welcome Wang Siniang's mother and daughter in.

Chen Xiaoting also led people in, and all the captains brought knives, adding a bit of murderous aura to this Buddha-lit temple.

After passing through several gates to the main hall, Wang Siniang's mother and daughter knelt down on the futon in front of the Buddha statue under the waiter of the maid.

The scene was very solemn, the mother and daughter knelt on the ground and chanted words, while Chen Xiaoting stood at the door, constantly looking around.

Finally, when his gaze swept to Shen Yi, he found that Shen Yi was also looking at him when he got up.

The two of them briefly made eye contact, and then quickly looked to each other, but the burning sensation when they looked at each other was not so easy to disappear.

This feeling made Chen Xiaoting a little familiar, just like Zheng Xuan'er looked at him when he was in Guangde.

From entering the temple to the end of the incense, the time difference is only half an hour, and then I have to listen to the host talk about Zen.

These were very boring for Chen Xiaoting, and listening to the monk's chanting made him doze off.

The time was almost noon, and all the activities were finally over, and the three hundred taels of silver of the Shen family were also put into the treasury of Ciguang Temple.

"Two donors, why don't you eat fast in this temple before leaving?" The host said with a smile.

Three hundred taels of silver, which is two months on weekdays, and it is rare to have this harvest, how can he not be happy.

At this time, I took the initiative to eat fasting, but also to add to my service, so that people would continue to come after reading it.

After Wang Siniang thought about it, she said: "It's okay, it's not too late to hurry after eating fast!" ”

Now it's just a meal, and I'm here to pray for blessings in a few days, so it's good to start and finish.

But Chen Xiaoting is not so willing to do this, what is delicious about the food in a small temple, which can be compared to the delicacies of the mountains and seas in Luyang City?

In fact, there are still many people who think this way, and the captains below have raised their mouths in the city, so they can get used to eating fast.

Half an hour later, Chen Xiaoting put down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand, and said with a smile: "The fast meal in Ciguang Temple is really good!" ”

The lieutenants who were surrounded by a circle at this time someone answered: "Yes, my lord, it's so fragrant!" ”

At this moment, the lieutenant, who was in charge of guarding outside, hurriedly broke into the room.

After this person came to Chen Xiaoting, he said anxiously: "My lord, it's not good, a group of soldiers broke in outside!" ”

A soldier broke in? Chen Xiaoting stood up suddenly, and everyone who was eating next to him immediately put down their dishes and chopsticks.

No matter what the purpose of these soldiers entering the temple was, it would not only make them collide with Wang Siniang's mother and daughter, so Chen Xiaoting lifted his saber and said, "Brother, follow me!" ”

At this time, there was already a noise outside, and several captains who were on duty outside, as well as the monks in the temple, were all blocked outside.

Hearing the voice, Wang Siniang's mother and daughter also put down the food in their hands at this time.

After instructing his subordinates to go out and watch first, Chen Xiaoting came to the room and said, "Miss Madam, there is some trouble outside, let's deal with it, Miss Madame, don't worry!" ”

After Wang Siniang nodded, Chen Xiaoting retreated from inside, and then said to the four lieutenants guarding the door: "Protect Miss Madame!" ”

After giving these instructions, Chen Xiaoting turned around and walked outside.

At this time, at the gate of the temple, the two groups of people and horses had reached the time of tension, and the monks took all the broom stools they could take.

The one who came with the troops was a hundred households, and these people all came on foot, and it should be the guard near Luyang.

In addition to this hundred households who are neatly dressed, most of the nearly 100 soldiers under him are either short of hats or shoes, and many of them are holding sticks.

Indifferently, the guards were like this, and everyone present was not surprised.

After all, there is only one Jinyi guard in the whole world, and the other guards are almost rotten except for a few stationed around the capital.

"What are you doing in this temple?" Liu Jianping asked.

At this time, the hundred households of the guard were very surprised, he didn't know how this barren mountain and wild temple could have a brocade guard here.

What's more important is that the three small flag officers in front of him are relatively young, and such people often have backgrounds in Jinyiwei, which means that they are not easy to mess with.

Therefore, standing on the opposite side, this hundred households is a little cautious, he is here to loot money and food, not to make trouble for himself.

But Dongchang is a knife on the head of the guard, so this Baihu is not so cowardly, only to hear him laugh and say: "It turned out to be the brother of Jinyiwei!" ”

"The brothers had no food to eat in the barracks, and we saw that there was little smoke on the mountain, so we came to take a look!"

Liu Jianping looked at it, and the soldiers below were all yellow-skinned and weak, and they really didn't have any food.

Before Liu Jianping could answer, he saw another group of people coming in the distance, but it was a group of guards.

This wave of people led the team by a hundred households, and before they arrived, they heard him shout: "Lao Yang, why haven't you gone in yet?" How dare these bald asses stop you? ”

This man's temper was obviously about to explode, and when he led people to the front and saw Jinyiwei, he still shouted in the same tone: "Brothers of Jinyiwei, we are also forced to run out of options, please make it easier!" ”

"The brothers are already hungry and red-eyed, and if we push them into a hurry, it will be difficult for those of us who are a hundred households to restrain them!"

This is more of a threat than a complaint.

It stands to reason that Liu Jianping was not so easily intimidated.

It wasn't until he carefully observed the eyes of the people behind these two hundred households that Liu Jianping and Pastor Ge Duyun looked at each other, and they both saw a solemn look in each other's eyes.

Most of these soldiers are numb in their eyes, and there is also madness hidden in the numbness, and it is really possible to do it desperately for stuttering.

Not only are these people hungry, but the children in their families are also hungry, and it is not impossible to do crazy things.

There were nearly 200 people on the opposite side, and although the weapons and equipment were very rudimentary, they were also terrible to play with.

The captains, who add up to only thirty people, can hardly say that they can stop these people, let alone ensure the safety of Wang Siniang's mother and daughter.

Now the situation is not something that Liu Jianping and the three of them can settle, they can only stalemate like this first, and wait for Chen Xiaoting to come out and decide.

The solemnity and hesitation in the eyes of Liu Jianping and the three of them were all seen by the two hundred households opposite, which made them even more confident.

The hundred households who came up behind then said: "Brothers, as long as you get out of the way, we will go our own way, and the well water will not interfere with the river water!" ”

At this moment, a sneer came from inside the temple gate: "Good well water does not interfere with river water!" ”
