Chapter 396: Pray to God and Worship Buddha
The two guards returned to Mei Yufeng's mansion and told Mei Yufeng all the news they had heard from the shopkeeper of the Qingyue Inn.
"Ning Shuang'er?" Mei Yufeng silently recited the name, raised his eyes to look at the guard in front of him and asked, "I came from the capital to find my sister who left home in anger?" ”
The two guards answered yes, and Mei Yufeng thought for a while and said, "You guys go down first!" ”
"Yes, sir." The two guards saluted and were about to leave, but just turned around and heard Mei Yufeng say again: "Call Ji Chen to Lord Ben in." ”
I don't know why, Mei Yufeng always felt that the woman named Ning Shuang'er was a little strange, she came to Qingfeng City from the capital to look for someone, why didn't she go to the local yamen for help first, but secretly searched for it?
If you go to find this local yamen, wouldn't it be much better than leading people around now?
Mei Yufeng sat in front of the table, his brows furrowed slightly, Ji Chen heard that Mei Yufeng had passed him in, so he immediately brought him to the house, bowed and said, "My lord, what do you command?" ”
Mei Yufeng glanced up at Ji Chen and said, "How long does it take to get from here to Baique Nunnery?" ”
Ji Chen paused slightly for a moment, then thought about it and replied to Mei Yufeng: "If you go back to your lordship, it will take about half an hour." ”
"Half an hour." Mei Yufeng repeated what Ji Chen said, and then said to Ji Chen: "The woman you saw went to Baique Nunnery. ”
Ji Chen looked at Mei Yufeng with some surprise and asked, "What are you doing at Baique Nunnery?" There is not even much incense there, but it is not a place for incense. ”
Mei Yufeng said: "Probably in the White Bird Nunnery, there is the person they are looking for!" ”
When Ji Chen heard Mei Yufeng say this, he already understood something in his heart, "Do you want your subordinates to bring someone to stop them now?" ”
Mei Yufeng shook his head and said, "This matter, it's not right, if you rush to Baique Nunnery to stop them now, won't you miss many secrets that we don't know?" ”
He always felt that the woman who called herself Ning Shuang'er would definitely not come to Qingfeng City to find the so-called sister in her mouth.
"What do you mean to capture them in one fell swoop when they come out of the White Bird Temple?" Ji Chen looked at Mei Yufeng and asked.
The corners of Mei Yufeng's mouth hooked up a smile, but he said to Ji Chen: "Since they are Qian Baihan's people, how can they be arrested?" ”
Seeing that he was puzzled, Mei Yufeng stood up and came to Ji Chen's side, patted him on the shoulder and said, "What? Still haven't got it? ”
"The subordinates are stupid, and I ask the adults for advice." Ji Chen spoke, a trace of embarrassment crossed his face.
Mei Yufeng didn't care, just looked at Ji Chen and said, "You send someone to watch them in secret, as long as you wait for them to leave the White Bird Nunnery, you will immediately kill them." ”
Ji Chen responded, "Yes, my subordinates will take someone to do it." ”
Mei Yufeng stopped him and said, "Remember, this time, bring more people, if she doesn't bring people out of the Baique Nunnery when she comes out, you can't do it." ”
"Yes, my subordinates remember." Ji Chen saluted, then turned around and left Mei Yufeng's house.
At this moment, Lu Qingzi was sitting in the carriage, and suddenly his heartbeat accelerated inexplicably for a moment, giving birth to a bad illusion.
I don't know how long it took, the guard who was driving the car stopped the carriage, Lu Qingzi lifted the curtain and glanced at the scenery outside and asked, "Arrived?" ”
The guard who drove the car replied: "Not yet, it's just that the White Bird Nunnery is halfway up the mountain, and the carriage can't pass in front of us, so we can only walk up to the White Bird Temple." ”
Lu Qingzi lifted the curtain and got out of the carriage, feeling that the sun was dazzling.
The guard found a hidden place, bolted the carriage, and walked towards the mountain with Lu Qingzi.
At this time, it was the scorching sun, and it didn't take long for Lu Qingzi to feel a little exhausted, and there were many beads of sweat on his forehead.
"I knew I had brought the water bladder." The guard looked at Lu Qingzi's appearance and sighed: "Girl, hold on a little longer." ”
Lu Qingzi nodded, "It's okay, let's just pick some places that can shade the sun, it can always be cooler." ”
"Hmm." The guard answered, followed Lu Qingzi and said, "If the girl can't walk for a while, say to your subordinates, and your subordinates will carry the girl up." ”
Lu Qingzi smiled, "It's okay, no, it's not so delicate." ”
The two of them walked all the way to half-burn incense, and Lu Qingzi finally saw the three big characters of Baique Nunnery presented in front of him.
"Here we are." Lu Qingzi said this, quickened his pace and came to the door of the White Bird Nunnery, knocking on the vermilion gate that had long been washed away by the wind and rain.
I knocked on the door, and it didn't take long to see a little nun slowly open the door.
The little nun looked at a man and a woman standing in front of her, and a trace of surprise crossed her eyes, in this white bird hermitage, there had been no pilgrims for a long time.
"Two donors." The little nun folded her hands and bowed, and made a way to get out of the way: "Please inside." ”
Lu Qingzi took the guards into the White Bird Nunnery, and after wiping the fine sweat on his forehead with a handkerchief, he found that although the White Bird Nunnery was halfway up the mountainside, there were no trees to cover it, but it was very cool inside.
"I didn't expect that there is no cave here." The guards looked at the trees and flowers in the courtyard, and couldn't help but praise them.
The little nun smiled and said, "They were all planted by the owner of the nunnery in the early years, and the owner of the nunnery likes these very much." ”
As she spoke, the little nun had already led Lu Qingzi and the others into the house, and on the futon in the middle of the room, a woman was kneeling, chanting sutras to the Buddha statue.
The little nun whispered to the woman, "Master, a guest is coming. ”
The woman didn't look back, she was still chanting the scriptures in her mouth, and when she had finished reciting this passage, she slowly stood up and turned around, clasped her hands together and looked at Lu Qingzi and the two people: "The two distinguished guests have been waiting for a long time." ”
Lu Qingzi returned a salute, said a few polite words to the owner of the White Bird Nunnery, donated some incense money, put incense on the pillar, and just stood up, but heard the owner of the White Bird Nunnery say: "Girl, please come with the poor nun." ”
Lu Qingzi was stunned for a moment, and then followed the owner of the White Bird Nunnery to another room and sat down.
"The girl must not have come here to pray to the gods and worship the Buddha, right?" The head of the White Bird Nunnery looked at Lu Qingzi and said.
A hint of surprise crossed Lu Qingzi's eyes, "How did the master of the nunnery know?" ”
The owner of the White Bird Nunnery smiled and said: "This White Bird Nunnery is a little far away from the city lord, and it is located on this mountainside, and the poor nuns have never seen any sons or girls, who came to this White Bird Nunnery, just to come here to donate some incense money, to pray to God and worship Buddha." ”
