snare

Wan Ning hurried to the Ping'an Inn near Woyunguan, Sister-in-law Lin and Yuling were anxiously waiting for her, she knew that the time was almost up. She can only make a desperate bet, in this case, Wan Ning knows that personal and emotional are no longer important, she and her third brother have paid so much, they can't just admit defeat, and this is not only winning or losing, it is related to the lives of her loved ones. Regardless of his current relationship with her, she didn't want to see any damage on him.

She took off the white jade bracelet on her right hand, which had been her grandmother's dowry. Shiye Khan's jade bracelet had been left behind when she left Xinjie. She took the bracelet to Yuling and asked her to take it to Grandma and Xinjie, and told her to tell Grandma that she was waiting for Grandma to marry her one day. She asked Mother Lin to hurry up and find Xiao Jiu first: "Mother Lin, you must tell the Ninth Young Master, 'It rains a lot during the Qingming Festival', let him hurry up and come to Woyunguan to pick me up, remember to say that sentence, otherwise he won't believe you." In this case, only the Ninth Young Master can protect me from Woyun Guan for a while. Then she took off the agate hairpin on her head, "After you tell the Ninth Young Master, hurry up to Shanglin Yuan to find the eldest young master, give him this hairpin, and tell him: 'Whether it is the hairpin he gave to Lian'er or the guqin Lian'er, Lian'er is grateful for the affection he gave me, but please the eldest young master in any matter for Lian'er's affection, and rush to the palace to save the third young master.'" The place where the old demon He asked for was hidden, Lian'er marked it on the piano that the eldest young master gave to Lian'er, and he had looked at the piano very carefully, and he should be able to see the mark. 'Before He Lao Demon got the atlas and the jade seal, he didn't dare to attack the third brother. Do you understand? ”

Mother Lin asked with some doubts: "Then do you want the eldest young master to go and get the piano himself?" He may have known more clearly what the young grandmother meant when he got the piano. ”

Wan Ning frowned slightly, her fingers clenched slightly in her sleeves, and she shook her head and said: "Don't worry, after you finish talking to the eldest young master, go back to Aoki Garden, if the girl in the jade book hasn't touched my things, the piano is in the third box on top of the west bookcase in my small study in the west courtyard." You took the piano and went to the palace to meet the eldest young master. ”

Mother Lin nodded solemnly. Lian'er knows that Mother Lin has an excellent memory and will not say the wrong thing or miss it.

After they had gone, she went to the inner courtyard of Woyunguan, met with Mrs. Yinyi, and asked them to leave quickly.

She looked at Yin Yi deeply: "Mrs. Shi, I'm really sorry, this time I may have to make Guanli suffer a heavy loss, but for the sake of Sheji, Ning'er has to do this." ”

Yin Yi said calmly: "What did the Zhou Shizhu say, Woyunguan was originally the Queen Mother's mercy, not to mention that for the sake of the society, even if the Queen Mother has any will, the poor Dao and other broken bones should be." It's just that after we leave, isn't it dangerous for the donor himself to be here? Why don't you leave with us, and take care of it on the way. And the donor disguised himself as a little Taoist aunt to be with us, and the other party may not be embarrassed to leave the family. ”

Wan Ning's face was calm: "Thank you, Mrs. Shi!" No need, Mrs. Shi, I'm going to hurt you if I'm with you, so you can withdraw first. And there is still something to be done here. ”

Yin Yi is still not at ease: "It's better to let the three fingers take the others away." Poor Dao is here to accompany the benefactor. Although the martial arts of the poor Dao are average, it is still possible to deal with ordinary juniors. ”

Wan Ning smiled slightly: "Don't worry, seniors, Wan Ning has her own way out." And the big thing is coming, the younger generation just wants to borrow the treasure of the Taoist to dispense some medicine and go to other places, and the younger generation is not at ease. It's good that the Taoist is clean here, and no one disturbs him. ”

As soon as she said this, Yin Yi was even more embarrassed to say anything more. The capital knows that the third young grandmother of the Tang family has excellent medical skills. This place to be pure means that the medicine is not willing to be passed on. Naturally, I don't want anyone in front of me.

Yin Yi thought slightly: "If the young lady needs someone to protect her during the dispensing period, just give orders." Don't think too much about it. Poor Dao and the others should have served the Queen Mother. The young lady is also working for the imperial court, and it is appropriate for the poor road to be guarded here. ”

Wan Ning smiled gratefully: "Mrs. Shi is loyal to the Queen Mother, and for Wan Ning's plan, Wan Ning has a good intention." It's just that the Taoist leader still left with his disciples and kept them, so that the Queen Mother would still be of great use to you later. I am refining medicine here, and it is estimated that there will be various smells wafting in the air later, which will hurt the internal strength of the Dao Chief. And didn't the Taoist explain to Wan Ning the mechanism in the backyard here? This mechanism is late and believes that the design of Shi Yun Dao Chang is not something that ordinary people can crack. When the Dao Chiefs go out, the evening condensation activates the mechanism. ”

Yin saw that she was very determined, and no longer argued. If you continue to argue, you will not believe in the mechanism designed by the master, and you will be suspicious of being curious about her prescription. So he finally agreed to take the two big apprentices outside to gather the other little Taoist aunts to go together.

After watching them walk out the door, Wanning smiled slightly, and as she told Yinyi, activated the mechanism in the backyard.

As soon as Yin walked out for a while, he stood still again, and looked back at the backyard, where the trees in the courtyard seemed to rustle for a while, and then there was no movement. This mechanism was designed by her ancestor Shi Yun, and she only knew how to use it, and never really activated it. She had only explained to Wan Ning once this morning, and this young lady of the Tang family was able to skillfully find the switch message to activate the array as soon as she turned around, and she was really a rare talent. She and the others stood there without moving, staring intently at the trees in the guard. In addition to knowing how to open the mechanism, she really doesn't know how to crack the town set up by the ancestor from the outside. Although she took over the position of the master, because of some past problems with the master, the master did not teach her many things that she should have learned earlier. At this moment, she felt that an outsider was more familiar with the Taoist temple than she had lived in for more than ten years, and she felt very funny.

After a while, a strange fragrance slowly came from the protective array, Yin Yi quickly held his breath and said sharply: "Hurry up and hold your breath and get out of here." With that, he turned around and walked quickly towards the outer courtyard. Although she didn't understand pharmacology, she also knew that the strange smell just now was poisonous. A hundred steps away from the inner courtyard, she took a deep breath. frowned, this young lady is configuring this medicine at the moment, how many people will be taken down with a wave of her hand? Yin Yi was a little scared.

Wan Ning glanced at Yin Yi who was standing in a daze in the distance in the middle of the formation. In fact, she just mixed a little incense and lit it, and she didn't dispense medicine, and it wasn't poisonous, she just scared Yin Yi away. She retreated to the small courtyard where Yin Yi's bedroom was located, closed the door, and came to the room where the ancestor Shi Yun Shitai had used, Wan Ning took out a short steel sword tied to her calf, and came to the bookshelf that the Queen Mother had told her, Gently inserted the steel sword behind the third grid, and gently swung it up and down, and heard two very soft cracking sounds, The Queen Mother said that it was a dried snake skin, If this bookshelf had been moved in the past, the snake skin would have been broken a long time ago, and now it is obviously still intact, Yin Yi and these people did not find it. She thrust the steel sword into the penultimate slot, flipped her wrist, lifted the message, and the bookshelf slowly moved away, and she lit the prepared candle and walked inside. Then the message was reset from the inside, and there was no trace of it from the outside.

She walked along the route that the Queen Mother had told her, and saw a patio in front of her, which the Queen Mother said was the bottom of the stone lamp at the entrance of the Taoist temple. She extinguished the candle, walked under the light, and listened quietly for a while, and could faintly hear that they were still at the door, and had not left. It seems that even though Yin Yi was frightened by the incense, he was still loyal to his duty and refused to leave, and they were here to make sure that Wan Ning did not leave before the opponent came.

She estimated the time, knowing that the house in her house would be burned in a quarter of an hour, and at that time, the guest room would be slowly filled with another kind of smoke, and she hoped that Xiao Jiu would understand her words and not come here. She smiled again towards the patio, and walked straight to the opposite passage, and when she entered the passage, she lit the candle again.

Although four years have passed, the route that the Queen Mother told her still remembers very clearly, she admires the wisdom of the old man, and originally told her this way, so that she could avoid Yixiang's men in the dead of night and escape from Woyunguan, but it didn't have time to use it, but this time it can come in handy. Wan Ning came out of the dark passage, came to a small courtyard, according to the direction, this is already an alley two streets away from Woyunguan, she listened to no one outside the door, slowly opened the courtyard door, came to the alley, walked out along the alley is the street, she stopped the car and quietly returned to the vicinity of the shop on Nanqin Street, after observing that everything was normal, she went in and got what she needed, and then asked Uncle Qi to set a car for her, sent her to the two streets near Aokiyuan, and let Uncle Qi leave. The place where she and Xiao Jiu retreated last, she couldn't tell anyone, especially at this special time. She walked down the side street, quickly changed into men's clothes at the foot of the stairs of a teahouse with a hall, and then left on the other side of the hall to the city of mules and horses, hired a car, and headed north of the city. After confirming that no one was coming, she returned to Dongcheng and came to the small courtyard where Xiao Jiu had taken refuge after saving her in Woyunguan. This place is less than five miles away from Woyunguan, even if Xiao Jiu didn't understand that sentence at first, when she arrives at Woyunguan and finds that something is wrong, she will come here to find her.

The trees are still the same, Xiao Jiu said that when he was in Beijing, he would often come over to clean them, it seems that this is the case. She walked along the flower path through the courtyard, and came to the backyard outside the bedroom, there was already a faint light waiting for her inside, Xiao Jiu heard the footsteps coming out of it and looked at her with a smile and leaning against the door.
