Chapter 3 The mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings, because the old people are artificially linked
Zhao's hatred for her was a little more, but Ye Menghan only regarded the convoy that had just passed by as a lively one. She immersed herself in the mountain scenery, waited for the snow to fade, and then went up the mountain with her.
Who knew that this waited until dark. When the novice of Longyin Temple came out to greet him, the sun had already sunk in the west. The ancient temple in the night is desolate and solemn, and it is a little deeper than looking at it in the daytime.
The young novice took the group to the side room that had been arranged for them, and brought in the food that had been prepared for a long time.
Zhao looked at Ye Menghan, who was sitting at the same table as him, and suddenly let out a sneer. Seeing that the little novice also retreated, now there were only the servants of the Ye family and the three of them that she brought out. He no longer politely flicked his chopsticks and pointed at Ye Menghan to make her kneel.
Ye Menghan naturally didn't know where he was causing the Zhao family to be unhappy, such a scenario had been rehearsed many times over the years. Therefore, there is no need to bother to ponder your mistakes, just do what she says.
The wing room used to entertain guests in Longyin Temple is much better than the Zen room where ordinary novices live. But after all, it is a place of cultivation, and the conditions are limited. The big bluestone bricks on the ground were cold and hard, and she knelt down and heard a crisp sound, thinking that tomorrow her knees would be blue.
"I used to see you as a dishonest person, but this time I came out without knowing that even your concubine came with you!"
Zhao's words were extremely ugly, and they didn't seem to be like what the elders could say to the juniors. Although Ye Menghan had already learned how she changed her face, she didn't expect that even in this thousand-year-old temple, she could say such a thing.
There is no excuse for the crime she wants to add, and she doesn't want to make more excuses. It's just something out of nothing, how can she understand it. I don't understand it, so why bother doing that useless work.
Zhao saw that she was silent and did not speak, and he was even more sure that the man was complicit with her. only complained to herself in her heart, and even such a maid who couldn't go out of the door couldn't stand it. When did she actually make friends with such a character, she was indeed unaware. If the man hadn't looked at her deliberately, he wouldn't have been in the dark for a long time!
Zhao, who felt deceived and was teased as a fool, looked at the pretty face kneeling on the ground and became even more angry. She slammed the table, slamming the dish to the ground and shattering it.
"Our Ye family poured out a character like you, it's really a blessing for the ancestors!"
She reprimanded Ye Menghan in a sharp voice, and Ye Menghan, who was sitting on the side watching the show, was leisurely sandwiching the dishes on the table. Why didn't she think that the vegetarian dishes in Longyin Temple were so delicious?
looked at her mother smiling and reprimanded Ye Menghan, but she was so happy when she saw her deflated.
"Since you have arrived at this ancient temple, you should also go, you are full of commotion! Don't be like your foxy girl. Time can't wait, you can go to the Buddhist hall tonight to copy the scriptures. ”
Ye Menghan bit his lower lip fiercely and suppressed his anger. Lower your head a little further and reply
"My daughter knows."
It's just going to the Buddhist hall, but it's just copying the scriptures. She didn't mention her mother once or twice. You must hold back!
Zhao saw that Ye Menghan was still kneeling in place, and he didn't tell her to get up. When he and his daughter finished eating a meal affectionately, he immediately asked his maid to press her and send her to the Buddhist hall.
Ye Menghan knelt down for a meal, except for the first two mouthfuls of green vegetables, and he didn't eat at all. Now he was thrown into this cold Buddha hall, which was really a bit miserable.
Ye Menghan sighed, got up and lit a candle and stood on the ground. It's really hard for the Zhao family! Although Longyin Temple is only a temple, it is so close to Bianliang that it is a thousand-year-old temple. It is not easy to find such a dilapidated Buddhist hall. It can be seen that she is not "bothered" about this concubine.
There was no one to spy on her, so she was left here alone. She's happy too. It's just that if you're a little cold and hungry, you'll be over. When the incense is finished tomorrow, Zhao will release her and bring her back together.
Therefore, although her knee hurt badly and her stomach was hungry, she was not too worried. The only thing that worries you is Qiao'er's condition is also the situation. As his closest maid, he must also be troubled by the Zhao family. I just don't know if I'm not even able to eat like her now.
The Buddha hall is quiet, except for a statue of the third Bodhisattva of the Ten Directions standing in the center, there is no other furnishings. Ye Menghan took off the cloak on his body and spread it on the ground, while he curled up on it, guarding the candle flame, thinking about making up for the night like this.
She lay on the ground and looked at the solemn appearance of the Bodhisattva, praying silently in her heart. If God really has a spirit, he will ensure that she marries a good family and breaks away from the Zhao family as soon as possible.
On this day, they came out early, and the road was not smooth and tossed late. For example, Ye Mengyan and Zhao were tired and went to bed early. Ye Menghan, who was afraid of a day and had no rice to eat, was naturally even more lacking.
Yuan was still thinking about how to deal with Zhao's difficulties tomorrow in his mind. After a while, it was difficult to support the upper eyelids under the lower eyelids, and he fell asleep with his eyes closed.
It wasn't until she heard some faint noises in her sleep that she woke up suddenly. Subconsciously thought that the Zhao family had sent someone over, so he quickly blew out the candle and hid behind the door.
Could it be that the Zhao family wants to kill her? Like when she was sick, she took her life in this ancient temple? The sourness on her body was terrible, and the little sleepiness that had not subsided was also expelled by the terrible thoughts in her mind.
Ye Menghan, who was in the dark, held his breath and carefully identified the source of the sound. As she approached the door, she saw a dark figure standing outside hers.
Ye Menghan was so frightened that he almost couldn't stand, so he could only hold the door fiercely and close his mouth. Observe the movement of the dark shadow outside the door.
The dark shadow had been in front of her door for a long time, but there was no sign of breaking in. Ye Menghan was thinking about whether he wanted to strike first, but quickly shook his head and denied the idea.
She didn't know who the Zhao clan had sent. But as long as it is a man or a rough mother-in-law, she is invincible with her small body. At that time, I am afraid that it will not be a preemptive strike, but a suicide attempt.
Quietly the cat looked at the dark shadow behind the door for a long time, but the man seemed to be frozen in place, and did not make any movement. Ye Menghan confronted him silently, and his legs stiffened. The dark shadow outside the door moved slightly, and it went in the other direction.
Ye Menghan, who was standing at the door, couldn't figure it out, didn't this person come for himself?
Tomorrow is the New Year, and there will be no fewer official ladies who come to incense. Except for themselves, everyone slept peacefully in the wing. Those who can come here with a leaky mind must not be a good person.
She thought about it for a while, but pushed open the door of the Buddhist hall. Since someone wants to do evil, he has bumped into himself. If she just looks at it and doesn't do anything, she really can't get by.
Especially in this temple, it should be a blessing. But she is also very self-aware of herself, and it must not be possible to subdue the murderer, but it is always okay to follow him to give people a wake-up.
Afraid that the black shadow would go too far and he wouldn't be able to keep up, Ye Menghan didn't think about it anymore. Chase him from afar.
The two ran one after the other, but Ye Menghan, who was following behind, became more and more strange the more he thought about it. This black shadow looks thin, and his size is not much different from his own. Dressed in black, he seems to be very familiar with this ancient temple. Ye Menghan followed him all the way to the east and west, seeing that he sometimes crossed the trail and sometimes took a shortcut, naturally it was not the first day he came here.
This was obviously premeditated for a long time, but he ran with him for a long time, but he didn't know where his destination was.
The black shadow finally entered a very narrow and dark alley, and then stopped. Ye Menghan looked at the alley, only to see that the sides were empty, and there was no house except for the brick and stone walls.
It is impossible to harm people in a no-man's land. Could it be that she guessed wrong? Is this person just looking for something, or does he have a habit of wandering at night?
She speculated wildly behind her, but didn't notice that the dark shadow had already stood still. At this time, there was only a few zhang between her, the follower, and the follower.
"Miss has been with me for so long, what do you want to see?"
The black shadow suddenly opened his mouth to speak, and his voice was clear and clear. It is extremely inconsistent with his identity as a man in black.
Ye Menghan didn't expect that he would be discovered a long time ago. In the darkness, I was even more startled when I heard the sudden voice of the person who was following me.
"Why don't you speak?"
The man in black turned, revealing a pair of eyes that were exposed outside his hood. Ye Menghan only looked at those eyes, and knew that the man in black must be a woman. It's really because those eyes are so seductive, just looking at them makes people think about it. How can a man with such eyes be a man?
Finding out that she was a woman, Ye Menghan's nervousness was somewhat eliminated. Justified
"Just came out for a walk, didn't follow you."
I can't tell if she misunderstood which lady, but she followed others all the way, which was really obscene. So naturally, I have to lie and expose it.
When the woman in black heard her answer, she laughed and asked
"Coming out for a walk?"
Her tail was upturned, and she said something charming about this ordinary question. Ye Menghan vaguely felt the displeasure in her words. Come to think of it, if you are treated as a villain, it is not happy to be followed all the way.
I was about to apologize to her, but with a slight flick of the woman's cuffs, a silver dagger fell into her hand. Just watched her jump slightly, with a light step like a cat, and in a few clicks, she came to Ye Menghan's side, and slashed towards her with her hands and feet.
It all happened in the midst of lightning! Ye Menghan, a daughter of the boudoir who has never even been out of the door, has seen such a fierce villain when she has seen it. What's more, this woman is obviously professionally trained, and even those who practice martial arts may not be able to parry it here.
Ye Menghan didn't even have time to react, and his face was even a little stunned. She was pounced on by the woman, and she fell to the ground with her. By this time, the blade was already close to her neck three points.
Seeing that he was about to be killed by someone cutting his throat, another silver light was obliquely inserted between the two.
This is a long sword that sharpens iron like clay, and the two silver rays of light are immediately superior to each other as soon as they meet. The dagger collided with the sword light twice, and it was cut in half.
The woman jumped back to her previous position. Looking at the new spoiler.
The person who used the long sword to save Ye Menghan's life, like the woman, was dressed in black and wearing a hood. It's just that she is much taller than her, standing in front of Ye Menghan with a sword, but like a hero in the book.
