A few people arrived, but they saw that the shrub that was beaten by Lin Yun'er in the morning was broken open by Xiao Wu Xiaoliu A huge opening, and under this opening, there was a small flowing water, which was the original that only heard the sound of water without adding a trickle. Looking into the forest along this opening, I saw that there was really a very small dirt road between the pines and cypresses, and the generation of the road showed that there were people who often walked, so this further coincided with Lin Yun'er's thoughts.

There were many footprints on the small dirt road, and there were some scratches, looking at the shape of the footprints and the degree of formation, they must have been caused by Fang Cai's small five and six, and the whole bush was about four or five feet wide, and it would be a little difficult for Lin Yun'er to walk through it.

Xiao Liu is a clever man, and hurriedly picked up the tools in his hand, cut off all the extra bushes, and cut out a path, he used the reeds clustered on the side to spread on it, looking relatively clean and refreshing. Seeing this, Xiao Wu also went up to help, and the two continued to pave the way for Lin Yun'er in front, Ziwei gently helped Lin Yun'er and said, "Lady, this road is really not easy to walk, or let's call the Qianniu guards guarding the Buddha Hall to help?" ”

Lin Wan'er shook her head and said, "Qianniuwei stayed to guard Shitai, and besides, they can only be mobilized by the Holy Lord." ”

As she spoke, she picked up the hem of her skirt and collapsed.

The ground was soft with a smile like a reed, as if she were walking on a cashmere carpet, and after she had gotten used to it, she continued on her way, and when she reached the path, she stopped.

Last night's rain may be really a bit heavy, except for the footprints of Xiao Wu Xiaoliu on the ground, there are no clues and traces, she turned to look in the direction of the Buddha Hall, it is a bamboo forest, there is no road in the bamboo forest, but anyone can also walk in the bamboo forest, if this road leads to Jifu Temple, it means that the murderer is very likely to be in Jifu Temple.

This trail is very hidden, as if it was just a person who walked all year round, and when she looked at the surrounding forest ground, there were pine needles and cypress leaves falling from the pine and cypress trees, and it was extremely difficult to leave any clues on the ground paved with those things, and the murderer could not be stupid enough to walk this dirt road in order to leave any traces, so she could only look forward to see where the road ahead led.

Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu took the lead in the front, and she and Ziwei walked slowly in the back, the forest was full of trees, lush branches and leaves, it seemed that there was very little sunlight, although it was early autumn, but it still made people feel a little cold, Ziwei will hold her hand is already around her arm, only to hear her tremble and say, "Lady, you say, will the murderer hide in the dark?" ”

Lin Yun'er reached out and stroked her hand and said, "In broad daylight, there won't be." ”

It's just that when she was talking, she felt that her feet slipped, she didn't have time to adjust her posture, and she was about to fall behind her, everything came too fast, and Ziwei didn't have time to react, she only remembered to hold her arm and pull her forward, but she didn't want to make Lin Yun'er's feet step on a void.

She suddenly felt that the forest was spinning, and her center of gravity was so unstable that it fell backwards, all this came too suddenly, she had to clench her teeth and close her eyes, silently thinking in her heart, it would be better not to be too painful.

It's just that, in a few breaths, she suddenly felt that her back was hanging in the air, and the crook of her arm that was grabbed by Ziwei was also faintly painful, could it be that Ziwei was put on the ground by her teeth? She opened her eyes suddenly, only to see a large chest. She looked up, and the face with a scar that she hadn't seen in a long time appeared before her eyes.

It's Long Wu.

He held Lin Yun'er in one hand and crape myrtle in the other, holding it in the forest like a divine needle.

Lin Wan'er came back to her senses, borrowed a force from Long Wu, and got up suddenly, so scared that Ziwei dared to open her eyes tremblingly, but when she saw Long Wu's fierce face, she almost had her legs weak, if it weren't for Long Wu pulling her back shirt, she would have fainted to the ground.

Lin Yun'er stood still, straightened her clothes slightly, and asked, "Why are you here?" ”

Long Wu placed Ziwei, clasped his hands into fists, and said, "I just went to the mountain." ”

"Okay, you dragon warrior! Lang Jun asked you to come to protect the safety of the lady, why are you not looking for you? Don't you even dare to resist Lang Jun's life? Ziwei stood still, but out of nowhere, she got angry and hid behind Lin Yun'er and scolded.

Long Wu was also not angry, the height of six feet three (note: one foot is 30cm) was already much taller than the two of them, but he took a step back, knelt down and said, "That day, I left the Buddha hall and went to the bottom of the mountain to buy medicine to heal my wounds, but I fainted on the way, but fortunately I was rescued by a farmer, and I woke up this morning, so I came to find my wife." ”

Looking at Long Wu's demeanor, it seems to be true, he was first tortured, and then broke the ice cellar to save them, and then exposed to the sun for seven days and seven nights, peerless masters may not be able to withstand it, let alone Long Wu.

"Get up." Lin Wan'er said, "Since you're back, then follow me to investigate." ”

Long Wu paused in confusion, but Ziwei was very dissatisfied, and said, "Ah Lang and Mu Lang came to investigate the case of Linghui Master's violent death, and now in Jifu Temple, the lady found a clue and came to investigate in person, you are a guard, is it possible that the lady needs the lady to explore the way for you?" ”

"Have you ever found the murderer?" Long Wu took a step forward.

Ziwei hid behind Lin Yun'er again and again, and Lin Yun'er said, "No, but I believe in my father and Ah Ling's ability." ”

Long Wu bowed his head and clasped his fists with both hands, "Go and investigate one or two." ”

As he spoke, he disappeared into the deep forest like a gust of wind.

Seeing Long Wu leaving, Ziwei dared to gasp, Lin Yun'er turned around and knocked her on the head, "Why do you want to fight with him?" ”

Ziwei touched the place that had just been knocked by Lin Yun'er, and her mouth bulged, "The slave just can't get used to the way he looks, how can there be a guard who has not come to report after leaving the master for so many days?" The slave must have looked at him on purpose, and it is not known where he ate and drank! ”

"I look at him like a chivalrous man." Lin Yun'er looked at the direction in which Long Wu disappeared and said, "It's just that there are too many things hidden in my heart." ”

Ziwei pursed her lips, "Who doesn't hide things in their hearts, but he hides things." ”

Lin Yun'er said, "That's it, I don't understand with you, let's go." ”

Ziwei answered, and the two walked deeper down the road hand in hand.

I don't know how long they walked, the two of them heard the sound of spring water again, Lin Wan'er stood still, and this Ziwei said, "Lady, there is the sound of water." ”

Lin Yun'er nodded in agreement, a figure flashed, and before the two of them could react, Long Wu appeared in front of them. He clenched his fists and bowed down, "Lady, not far ahead, there is the Houshan Zen Temple of Jifu Temple." ”

Houshan Zen Temple? Lin Yun'er remembered that there was a leading spring in the Zen Monastery in the back mountain, could it be the spring water in the trickle of the mountain?

"How far is it?" Lin Yuner said.

"About half a mile." Dragon Martial Arts. (Note: 300 steps is one mile, one-fifth of a step is one foot, one foot is 30cm, and one mile is equal to 450 meters.) ）

Lin Wan'er bowed, half a mile of the road was not very far, and after a while, the three of them walked to the end of the road, and Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu were standing at the intersection to meet them.

Xiao Liudao, "Lady, if you go downhill from here, you can directly enter this Houshan Zen Temple." ”

Lin Yun'er followed Xiao Liu's guidance and looked, it turned out that they were standing on a small break, the broken surface is not very steep, but it is extremely secret, from the bush in the forest, you can peek into the Zen courtyard not far away, the faint sound of flowing water is as usual, but I am afraid that no human voice can be heard in this courtyard anymore.

Ziwei helped Lin Yun'er and was about to go downhill, but was stopped by Long Wu.

Ziwei hurriedly gave him a roll of the eye and shouted, "Didn't you see that the lady was going down?" ”

Long Wu only said "offended", then jumped and took Lin Yun'er and Ziwei down the slope, Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu clapped their hands and applauded on the side, and they actually worshipped.

Lin Yun'er stood still and shouted to Xiao Wu and Xiaoliu, "You two go back and say goodbye to Mother Cui, and say that we will be back in about half a day." ”

Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu got the order to stop their movements, only said "no", and walked from the main road to the Buddha Hall.

Ziwei came back to her senses, and wanted to say something more, but when she saw Long Wu turn her face away, Ziwei said in Lin Yun'er's ear, "Lady, the slave seems to have heard that there are people in this Zen courtyard." ”

"Really?" Lin Wan'er just observed the surroundings and became engrossed, but she didn't hear the sound in the Zen courtyard.

The place where they were located was at the foot of the back hill of the outer courtyard of the Zen monastery, and if they wanted to enter the Zen monastery, they had to go around a circle to find the gate of the Zen monastery, and they would go around the front yard from the back to the front yard, but they saw that the door of the Zen monastery was wide open. Ziwei poked in, but saw a person carrying a pot of water under the leading spring.

This person had his back to them, but he seemed to be extremely familiar, and there was a walking stick next to the stone table not far behind him, it was Xie Jia Sanlang, Xie Lin, and Xie Lanzhi.

Ziwei hurriedly turned around and took out a towel from her arms to cover half of Lin Yun'er's hibiscus. Only then did he follow Lin Yun'er into this Zen courtyard.

This is the third time Lin Yun'er has come to this Zen temple, the first time is to accept the invitation of Shen Yu and Dong Mao to come to taste tea, the second time is to bring Ouyang County Lord to meet Dong Mao, and the third time is that she came to investigate the case.

Lin Yun'er recalled that when she met Xie Lin for the first time, she smelled the faint fragrance of jasmine on Xie Lin's body, and although she met her for the second time, although she was under the laurel tree, she could still smell a little jasmine smell on him. Or perhaps, what is his connection to the murderer?

Lin Yun'er was thinking about it, the tall back carrying the water turned around coldly, and when he was about to bend down to pick up the cane, his eyes met her eyes, and in an instant, he was both stunned, as if time had stood still.

Xie Lin came to his senses, hurriedly put the pot in his hand on the stone table, and said with both hands, "But I didn't know that it was the Yellow Lady who came, Xie was rude." ”
