Bai Ling stood up from the slump and moved towards the window by the wall, her hands propped up on the paper window, and poked her head out to look.

Behind the teahouse is the back mountain of Donglin Temple, the mountains in the distance are steaming and misty, a piece of humidity, not far away is a few regular vegetable fields, it can be seen that the monks in the temple will work here every day.

Bai Ling held on to the edge of the window and climbed directly from the window to the open space outside the tea room.

"You come with me, let's go to the West Guest House to have a look." Bai Ling waved at Bai Yi in a low voice, "I will talk to you slowly on the specific road." ”

Bai Yi glanced at the door of the tea room, where two guards and eunuchs were squatting outside. He chuckled and tiptoed to the wall and out the window.

The two stepped on the soft ground behind the teahouse, and silently walked towards the west of Donglin Temple.

Along the way, Bai Ling told the story of the life in the palace in the past few days, and the fourteenth tracked down Lin Jieyu's background was blocked, the unknown origin of a strange old man under the Register Division, her own unwarranted suspicion of Rouge and her people, as well as the grievances of the Qinglian sisters, and Ah Li's surrender to the fourteenth outside the palace

If she hadn't talked to Bai Yi at this time, Bai Ling herself wouldn't have realized that in just a few days, so many incidents had emerged around her.

Bai Yi suddenly froze when he heard this, and involuntarily stopped, "Ah Li is starting to do things with Fourteen now?" Since when? ”

Bai Yi's reaction was also expected by Bai Ling.

"It was my instructions, originally." Bai Ling replied calmly, "Because the Fourteenth has almost all of the information lines in the North Town Fusi that are currently unavailable, I want to try to see if I can find a way from outside the palace." ”

"You haven't discussed this with me." Bai Yi's voice was a little higher, his face changed, and he suddenly seemed to remember something, "On the day of Xiaoman's accident, did you think of getting him involved in this when you asked me to take Ah Li home?" ”

"Hmm." Bai Ling nodded again.

"Boling!" Bai Yi frowned and grabbed Bai Ling's arm, "You do this, and"

Bai Ling's right hand lightly pressed on Bai Yi's arm, and she looked up into Bai Yi's eyes, "You listen to me first, okay?" ”

Bai Yi's eyes were a little incredulous, but he still let go of the hand that was holding Bai Ling.

"It wasn't that fast, and I didn't think about bypassing you to do it." Bai Ling said softly, "I brought Ah Li back that night to let Fourteen recognize him, and then go to observe whether this young man is competent to collect intelligence outside the palace, and let Fourteen judge the feasibility of this matter first." ”

Speaking of this, Pelling paused, "My original plan was that if Fourteen thought Ah Li was okay, then I would go to you to discuss it next." ”

Bai Yi's expression was only a little calmer at this time, but his eyebrows were still tightly wrinkled, "Then why did you tell me now!" ”

"Because Ah Li led people to smash some taverns and storytelling stalls with open-air operations, he was arrested by the patrol team on charges of picking quarrels and provoking trouble a few days ago," Bai Ling said softly, "Do you know about this? ”

Bai Yi gasped.

He didn't know.

But he did know that Ah Li was very angry with the rumors of Xiaoman in the city these days, so he was making trouble everywhere, and he also persuaded Ah Li to stop these futile actions as soon as possible, so it was better to go and see Xiaoman's family in the south of the city.

"In short, later Fourteen came out and rescued them from prison, and Ah Li also offered to follow Fourteen at that time." Bai Ling said softly, "This pace is faster than I expected, but we don't have much time in the first place. So"

Bai Ling didn't say any more, she looked at Bai Yi's side.

"I'm a little angry," Bai Yi moved his throat and said reluctantly, "but I'm not angry with you." ”

What qualifications do you have to be angry, even Ah Li took people out and broke into a big disaster, and he only knew about it when Bai Ling told him at this moment.

He knew that the water was deep here, that there was a turbulent dark tide here, and that he didn't want to get him involved for the sake of Ah Li.

But Ah Li probably couldn't understand the kindness behind this insistence, so this young man rushed in without thinking about it, but he wasted his time in the intrigue with these filthy people, and even put his life in it, what's the point?

Ah Li doesn't understand him, and he doesn't understand Ah Li. Maybe one day they will both understand, but there is no point in talking about it at that time.

After walking dozens of steps, Bai Ling suddenly raised his head, "On the night of Xiaoman's accident, Fourteen said something to me, and I have never forgotten it. ”

"Hmm."

Bai Ling looked away, looked at the blackened stone path under his feet, and said softly, "The more you think about it, the blunt the sword becomes." If the sword is blunt, you can't do what you could do, and those who can keep it can't keep it, let alone protect yourself. ”

Bai Yi was a little stunned when he heard this, and then his eyes dimmed, and the two walked forward silently.

The two of them walked all the way west along the back hill of the temple, and some of the ruins were still sporadic sparks. Although the gate of the west guest house was sealed, the side door had been burned through, and the monks in the temple simply used straw ropes to enclose a few lines on the porch to show that "the living should not approach". Most of the monks in charge of guarding the area are on the side of the main entrance, and the backyard and side entrance are left unattended.

The two of them walked through the fence of the side entrance and entered the side porch of the West Guest House, which had apparently not been treated much. The entire West Guest House was reduced to ashes in the fire, and only countless black beams and bones were scattered on the white rock foundation.

At the end of the field of vision, Bai Yi saw two stretchers covered with white cloths, and not far away came from the feet of the stretchers who tried his best to suppress them, and a little novice was leaning over the white cloth to wipe his tears.

"There's someone here." Bai Yi turned around and whispered to Bai Ling.

Outside the Donglin Temple, Master Xuyun appeared outside the temple gate with several monks of the same age as him.

The place was already full of warrior monks, all with sticks in their hands, waiting for battle.

But under the stone steps, Li Fengyu was the only one standing there, he carried his hands on his back, and he didn't seem to put the warrior monk in his eyes at all, just looked up at the direction of the temple gate.

At this time, seeing the void cloud appear, Li Fengyu showed a smile on his face.

The hunchbacked monk who had been waiting for Xuyun to deal with such a stubborn young man snorted, and just wanted to step forward to express his unreasonableness to Xuyun just now, but Li Fengyu had already taken the lead and shouted, "Master!" ”

He beckoned expectantly, ignoring the many monks outside the temple gate who were angry and frightened at him, and walked up to talk to Master Xuyun affectionately, as if Xuyun was a familiar elder to him.

Only then did everyone realize that this young lord of the Anding Uncle family was a dog-faced, and he turned his face faster than turning a book!

In the distance, the last prince climbed the high wall of Donglin Temple, Zeng Jiuyan and Zhang Jingzhen, who stepped on his shoulder, sat firmly on the wall, and the two of them pulled him by one arm and dragged him up hard.

The three of them rode on the wall and looked into the distance, looking at Li Fengyu in the distance, with sharp teeth, I don't know what to say to those monks, but it really attracted everyone's attention to him alone.

"It's too strong." Several people shook their heads and sighed in unison......
