Beilin half-lowered his eyes, and I knew that he was also looking at me, so he turned his face sideways and looked away.

It's just that it was a long journey from the inn to Hefu, but now Beilin is carrying me over like this, but it seems to have become a matter of an instant.

He Mansion Gaomen Compound, but he couldn't stop the North Lin at all, he hugged me and turned around and landed firmly in the inner courtyard.

I found that at night, there were only scattered lanterns lit in Hefu, which looked very dim and weird.

As I passed by the front yard, I pointed to the emerald green vines I saw today and asked Mingbeilin what kind of variety it was, and why it still looked so vibrant in this cold winter.

"This is the bitter bodhisattva vine, which is somewhat similar to the Bodhi tree, and it also grows in front of the Buddha." Stygian glanced at the vine and explained to me.

At this time, in the corridor on this side, there was a sound of clattering footsteps, and I immediately flew to the eaves with me, and I saw more than a dozen servants in gray clothes, holding small lanterns in their hands, walking back and forth in the corridor, probably patrolling the night.

Waiting for a group of people to pass, Ming Beilin took me to the wall and went straight to the West Garden.

The other courtyards have already been inspected by the stone pavilion chief, so we don't need to look at them anymore.

However, the closer you get to the West Garden, the stronger the smell of incense and candles.

In ordinary temples, there will be such a strong "incense" atmosphere.

Moreover, when we arrived at the eaves of the West Garden, we could see that in the middle of the courtyard of the West Garden, there was a big ding, and smoke was rising in the ding.

"Buddha Hall?" Suddenly, he lowered his eyes and glanced towards a large house, and then floated above the big house with me in his arms.

We were like snitches, and I lifted the tiles, and I followed them to look down.

What catches your eye is a "Buddha Hall", which enshrines Buddha statues, not to mention, but also offerings, incense and candles, and is still burning.

"God?" I was about to open my mouth to speak to the Stygian when there was movement underneath.

"Squeak", I saw a woman dressed as a maid enter the "Buddha Hall", and then she began to replace the fruit on the offering table with fresh ones.

He also reinserted the incense candles and carefully cleaned up the incense ashes that fell on the ground.

After packing up, she bowed to the Buddha statue reverently before leaving.

After the little maid left, I asked Ming Beilin again: "Shenjun, there is a Buddhist hall in this West Garden, what demon dares to hide here?" ”

Beilin shook his head slightly, it seemed that he didn't see the other party's path for a while.

"Dada, dada!"

As I was talking, I heard a very small footstep coming from the courtyard under the eaves.

When I looked down, I saw six little maids, following behind a man.

This man, dressed in a navy blue robe, has gray hair, and his face is full of knife-like wrinkles, but his face is clean and has no beard.

Moreover, the most eye-catching thing is the string of black Buddha beads in his hand.

He took the maids into the temple and bolted the door from the inside.

"Get in!"

The old man opened his mouth and pointed to the left side of the Buddha Hall, and I found that on the left side of the Buddha Hall, there was actually a small wooden door.

This wooden door is so low that adults have to bend down to get through.

"Yes!" These maids, at this moment, actually opened their mouths.

I couldn't help but be stunned, aren't the maids and servants in He Mansion all dumb? Why are these maids able to speak?

Just as I was confused, the maids were already walking towards the wooden door.

The wooden door was painted with gold paint, and when the door was opened, the maids leaned in one by one.

After they entered, the old man walked towards the offering table in the Buddha hall, picked up a wooden fish on the side of the offering table, and then sat cross-legged on the futon on the ground, and knocked the wooden fish.

"Knock knock, knock knock."

As the sound of the wooden fish sounded, I seemed to faintly hear some shouting.

"Knock knock, knock knock!"

The sound of the old man's hand beating the wooden fish became louder and louder, as if he was deliberately trying to cover up something.

After a long time, the sound of the wooden fish gradually stopped, and Ming Beilin looked sideways, carefully looking at the old man's face.

In the courtyard, the light is dim, so I don't look too carefully, but now, the candles in this Buddhist hall are extremely bright, and I can see it really clearly.

I saw that the old man's face was full of spots, which were the size of small fingernails and were reddish-brown.

"Corpse spots?" Beilin looked at the old man and muttered something in his mouth.

"Corpse spots?" I was stunned to hear this, and I lowered my head again and looked at the old man.

It is naturally impossible for corpse spots to grow on the body of a living person, could it be said that the old man at the bottom is a dead person? I looked at the old man and pondered,

"Dad, it's me, Zhanye."

Suddenly, a deep man's voice came from outside the Buddhist hall.

The old man stood up, put the wooden fish back in its place, and then opened the door of the Buddhist hall.

A middle-aged man with a mustache and a blue-brown satin robe walked in from outside the Buddhist hall.

This middle-aged man looks at least seven points similar to Master He, presumably the brother of Master He, and he called this old man "Dad", then this old man should be Old Lady He.

"Dad, everything has been done, the corpse has been arranged, the monk has been invited to overdo it, and it has been cremated." The middle-aged man opened his mouth and said to Old Lady He.

"Zhanye, this matter?" Old lady He raised his chaotic eyes and looked at his son.

"Dad, don't worry, this matter, my son's work is not leaking, and the eldest brother will not know about it." The middle-aged man hurriedly replied.

When Mrs. He heard this, she moved her eyes away, and muttered in her mouth: "It was just an accident, in the future, it will never happen again, Zhanye, Dad's painstaking efforts, I will also inform you!" In the future, the rise and fall of our He family also needs you to protect it. ”

"Dad, it's just this matter, if you don't tell the eldest brother, I'm afraid that it will become more and more troublesome in the future, after all, the eldest brother is already in charge now." After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he glanced at the door of the Buddhist hall: "Dad, big brother, today, you also asked me about the number of newly recruited maids?" ”

"Your eldest brother, your heart is too soft-hearted to make a big deal, and this business will still be in your hands in the future." Old lady He looked at the man in front of him and spoke.

When the man heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up: "Father, that son, in the future, I will do my best and give everything for the rise and fall of our He family." ”

"Hmm." Old Lady He nodded with satisfaction, then leaned over again and coughed: "Cough, cough, cough." ”

His coughing became more and more violent, as if he was about to lose his breath in the next moment.
