Chapter 224: Found by Kongtong Mountain
The group looked at each other, and Jin Yuanjing was also at a loss for what to do.
It was still a critical moment when Zhu Hongyu saw the big wardrobe of Huijun's house......
The door opened suddenly, and Zhu Hongyu saw several Taoist priests rushing in from outside the door.
At this time, Zhu Hongyu really felt chills behind her back and was terrified.
In Wudang Mountain, it is nothing but the fear of being threatened by everyone, and in the city where the plague is outbreaking, the virus is just a pair of invisible hands.
But now this scene has stirred Zhu Hongyu's nerves countless times, and there is only one thing in Zhu Hongyu's mind - run!
But where can they run?
"Liu Qi's family, your family is really lively."
The Taoist priest at the head of the priest had a white and beardless face, his face was swollen as if he was filled with water, and his stomach was abnormally bulging, as if he was pregnant with a child.
The Taoist priest who followed behind was not as fat as him, and he looked a little thin.
Huijun was so frightened that his face turned pale, and Liu Qi hurriedly walked out.
From Zhu Hongyu's point of view, he was holding an axe in his hand, obviously to protect his life.
"A few Taoist masters are merciful, they came to my house so late, I don't know what business they do?"
Salute first and then soldier, Liu Qi did it very well, Zhu Hongyu just looked at it and didn't speak, quietly waiting for everything that was going to happen, whether it was a thunderstorm or not.
"It's a business trip, there are three Taoist masters lost on this Kongtong Mountain, we said to look for it, is it a night to your house."
Instead, the man's gaze looked at the ingot.
Zhu Hongyu really wanted to pat her head, how could she patronize the hidden gold yuanjing, but forgot to hide the yuan treasure.
And now, the thin ingots are still wearing a Taoist robe, and they know that he is a Taoist priest at this glance!
But this is the only thing in this house, where can one be hidden, and where can there be a place to hide the second?
Just when Zhu Hongyu couldn't find a new place to hide people, and he was afraid that he would be in a catastrophe, Yuan Bao looked at this group of Taoist priests who came to visit with a very innocent expression.
"Fellow Daoists, be merciful."
The fat man at the head saw that there was not only a Taoist priest in the house, but also many lay family members, especially the bedding on the bed on the shelf where the guests were entertained in the house had been turned over.
Apparently there were people lying down just now.
Among the few people in the house now, only Liu Qi and Huijun are wearing pajamas.
This bed...... Well, that's interesting.
"Yo, I didn't see that there was a Taoist priest in your house, it's really compassionate...... What is the origin of this man? β
Liu Qi gave Huijun a look and asked Huijun to hurry into the house, obviously this move caused the dissatisfaction of the Taoist priest.
was about to follow Huijun into the house to picket carefully, but was stopped by Liu Qi.
"Ladies and gentlemen, they are all from men's families, and it is really not good for Neizi to talk outside in his middle clothes, it is really rude! Thank you for your understanding! β
The emaciated Taoist priest in the back was about to have a seizure, but was stopped by the fat Taoist priest headed by him.
The annoyed expression just now immediately changed his face and changed his smile at Liu Qi.
"Okay, I see that there are a lot of people in this house, and it's really not good for you to stand outside and talk. It doesn't hurt huh. β
As he spoke, the fat man at the head smiled more and more.
Zhu Hongyu stood aside, her face flushed slightly.
From the moment she came to Liangzhou, she kept causing trouble.
First, Jin Yuanjing fell off the cliff and was almost eaten, and then he stayed at Liu Qi's house so that Liu Qi was now threatened to his personal safety, and the last thing he should do was to talk to Yuanbao in the middle of the night.
originally thought that he would just talk about his heart, let Yuan Bao do what he should do, and find a good place he was willing to go, but now he can only rack his brains to find a way out against the three vicious Taoist priests.
Ay...... What a misfortune!
Jin Yuanjing curled up weakly in the big closet.
Shivering wasn't enough to make a sound, but no one knew how long it would take.
"By the way, Liu Qi, I see that one of you and your husband and wife slept inside and the other outside. Isn't that a bit of a bad idea? β
Liu Qi nervously glanced at the bed just now, obviously Jin Yuanjing had disappeared.
"This ......"
"We have a lot of people staying in the house, I sleep with the male host outside, and the women in the inner room sleep together. The old men who can't sleep outside will make bunks on the floor again. I can always sleep well one night. β
It is not others who speak and explain, it is the ingots.
The fat Taoist priest walked in front of Yuan Bao vigilantly, and cleverly "hummed" when he passed in front of Liu Qi, which really scared Liu Qi to tremble.
"By the way, we saw this little fairy friend when we came in just now, why do you look a little familiar?"
Yuan Bao knew that he had seen the fat Taoist, and this fat Taoist was the abbot of the Shifang Jungle on the mountain, but it was nothing.
"Familiar? Poor Dao is also the first time to come to Kongtong Mountain, yesterday was indeed in the temple on the mountain to worship, and then ready to go down the mountain. β
The fat Taoist priest raised his eyebrows and asked, "What, isn't it good on this mountain?" Where did Daoyou come from? Where are you going? β
Yuan Bao chuckled, revealing a relaxed face.
"Poor Dao came to this place just to worship, Kongtong Mountain is one of the thirty-six blessed places in the world, and it is also the place where the Yellow Emperor asked Yu Guangchengzi, which is very special. I practiced in Wudang Mountain, and I had only recently saved enough to get entangled in the coils, and I wanted to get off the bus early to hurry, but the post station under the mountain was full of people. So I turned my head up the hill again, and then I found a family to live in. β
Hearing this, the fat Taoist priest at the head just smiled. looked at the ingots thoughtfully.
"By the way, do you know these people?"
As he spoke, the fat Taoist priest's gaze fell on the few remaining people in the room, and even more on the neatly dressed Zhu Hongyu.
Yuan Bao smiled and shook his head, and said, "I also met it when I entered the mountain today, and I didn't know it very well, so I just chatted for a while." β
Then, the fat Taoist priest walked in front of Zhu Hongyu. At this time, Zhu Hongyu could only endure her fear and met the gaze of the fat Taoist.
"Girl, we're just asking routinely, who are you?"
Zhu Hongyu pretended to smile in embarrassment, looking at the fat Taoist priest with a shallow gaze.
She didn't know what kind of gaze she should use to look at the fat Taoist, and she didn't know what she should do to get rid of suspicion.
Try, now I can only try.
"We're here to look for someone on Kongtong Mountain." Zhu Hongyu did not shy away from saying her purpose, "This is my attendant and the person who drives the carriage, called Du Wu." β
The fat Taoist priest glanced at Du Wu and showed a very disgusted look.
"Why are you still from the Western Regions?"
"He came from the Western Regions and is familiar with this way, so I brought him with me."
The fat Taoist priest nodded, he vaguely felt that there was something wrong with this place, but as a Taoist priest on Kongtong Mountain, he had no power to search people's houses.
Now, they have already scared the snake, Liu Qi is a hunter, he has the strength to do it, and their forcible search will inevitably cause bloodshed.
"We lost three Taoist priests, one called Yuanbao, and he was a little Taoist boy. There is also a Taoist priest who is relatively old, and he is the mainstay of our mountain. There is also a new Taoist priest, surnamed Jin, and the rest do not know. All of you, if you see someone on the mountain, take them to the temple on the top of the mountain, and tell them that they are not to blame for this disappearance, and that they can explain the reason. β
After speaking, the fat Taoist priest gave a look to the people around him, and the three thin Taoist priests went out around the fat Taoist priest. All of a sudden, Liu Qi's home returned to peace.
Looking at everyone again, Liu Qi was so frightened that he peed his pants, and the rest of the people were not much better.
Huijun hurriedly came from the inner room and brought out a new pair of pants for Xianggong to go to the inner hall to change into.
Zhu Hongyu sat down on the bed all of a sudden, and did not come back to her senses for a long time.
Du Wu was naturally better, he wasn't much frightened, but if the fat Taoist priest asked him just now, he would definitely not be able to answer.
Only Du Wu was not frightened in this room, so Du Wu hurriedly helped Jin Yuanjing out of the big closet.
Jin Yuanjing was in the big closet, sweating hard.
When she was helped out by Du Wu, she was really in a state of almost collapse, and Zhu Hongyu was also very distressed when she saw it like this.
Jin Yuanjing's lips trembled and he looked around at everyone.
"It'sβthat's a bit of a ...... It's horrible! I'm really ...... I don't want to stay in Kongtong Mountain for a moment. β
Zhu Hongyu nodded, she didn't want everyone to continue to stay in Kongtong Mountain, this place was really a bit bad and terrible.
Zhu Hongyu, who was sitting on the bed, thought about it and always felt that something was a little wrong just now.
This fat Taoist priest could have blocked everyone in the back room and searched it, but he didn't do it.
It is not because there are not enough people, the absence of a search may simply be a lack of evidence.
Suddenly, Zhu Hongyu had a bad premonition, and she quickly stood up.
Everyone really couldn't stand the fright, Zhu Hongyu stood up suddenly, and everyone was startled again.
"Everybody...... I'm sorry, can you listen to me, I don't think it's right today! β
Liu Qi was already in pain enough because of such a trouble, and he wanted to stay on Kongtong Mountain without incident, and when he was old, he would go to Wuwei County to buy a house, but now this goal is all in vain!
Although it is said that the three hundred taels of silver that Zhu Hongyu gave him are enough to make him work hard, but when the knife is really on his neck, how many people can hold it?
"Eldest sister, please, eldest sister, let's not make trouble! Aren't all the people gone? What more do you want? β
Zhu Hongyu pursed her lips, she didn't mean that, she was definitely not a woman who wanted to deliberately find trouble.
"Think about it, how many holes were in our words just now? If you think about it again, did the Taoist priests on Kongtong Mountain grow up eating grass? They're not good people, and we're not repeat offenders. We must have exposed our bottoms, but these guys are waiting for the opportunity to see our flaws! β
As soon as Zhu Hongyu said this, she was shocked.
The house, which was so quiet that there was no sound, suddenly fell into a black hole that was darker than the night.
Everyone thought that the nightmare just now was over, but Zhu Hongyu wanted to cruelly tell everyone that this danger had just begun!
"That's it." Zhu Hongyu walked up to Liu Qi and Huijun, took out three hundred taels of silver tickets and stuffed them into their hands.
The protection of these two couples for them is already in place, and she Zhu Hongyu will not break her word.
"I thought, they're going to kill a carbine at night, I don't know when this time the carbine will come, but I need to pack up early!"
After speaking, Zhu Hongyu walked in front of Du Wu and Yuanbao.
"The two of them are tired, hurry up and help them and their husband and wife pack their things, and bring the valuables, otherwise we won't be able to go down the mountain. The sooner the better! β
