Chapter 80: Meeting Under the Moon
In the carriage, Evening Green was full of spirit and told Ran Yan everything about Gelan.
The more Ran Yan listened, the more she felt that this was a great woman, smart, calm, and endlessly used to deal with the Gao family, sometimes it seemed a little cruel and despicable, but when it was time to leave room, she would leave a line, and when she changed the stone, she would never hesitate at all. It's hard for a girl who is just a teenager.
"Listening to Xing Niang, Yu Niang gave birth to a seven-trick exquisite heart, and I thought that Gelan would follow her." Evening Green sighed.
Ran Yan smiled faintly, people like Ge Lan are suitable for living in the Gaomen family, and whether it is the original Ran Yan or the current her, it is not suitable to worry about those backhouse struggles.
It's not that he can't fight, on the contrary, if he really fights, the Gao family may not be Ran Yan's opponent. Besides, for her, what about the aggressive? If a medical examiner wants to kill someone, there are too many ways to avoid being noticed.
It's just that she was too serious in her previous life, except for work or work, in this life, she is destined to be unable to achieve her career, so she has to live easily and wantonly.
If those people in Ran Mansion stayed honestly, the well water would not interfere with the river water, and if Ran Yan was really provoked, she wouldn't mind using this pair of corpse dissecting hands to dissect a few living people.
The carriage gradually slowed down, and finally stopped, it was already dark outside, and the corner lights on the carriage could only illuminate the distance of less than a zhang around, Ran Yan looked at it, the wild grass was long, and it seemed extremely cold and silent.
"Lady, it's here." Xing Niang was outside the car.
Wan Lu helped Ran Yan get out of the car and stood at the foot of the desolate mountain.
Wanlu looked around, stunned, and then just sighed helplessly, she is very self-aware, except for a loyalty, in addition to the courage of the guts, she can't do it, and she will never be able to prepare for a rainy day for her mother like Gelan.
Ran Yan Wanlu sighed, patted her hand, and said, "This place is quiet, just right to avoid the limelight, what is there to sigh?" Besides, Brother Ten won't let me suffer. ”
"That's what the lady said." Evening Green nodded. Even if everyone in the Ran family is indifferent and ruthless, at least Shiro is good to the lady.
The mist at the foot of the mountain is misty, the further up the mountain, the thicker the fog becomes, Ran Yan looked up for a while, and could only vaguely see the fog lights flickering on and off, and the depression was indescribable.
"Amitabha." A Buddha horn came from the foot of the mountain.
Ran Yan withdrew his eyes and followed the voice. Three female nuns wearing wide-sleeved silk clothes greeted them, led by a slightly older one, about thirty years old, with a slender figure, a long neck, and a thin melon seed face. She was followed by two younger nuns, the youngest was only twelve or thirteen years old, her heart was undecided, and a pair of eyes looked at Ran Yan and her party curiously.
"Poor nuns." The nun led by the nun walked in front of Ran Yan, clasped her hands on her chest, and bowed slightly.
"It's Ran Yan, the seventeenth mother of the Ran family, and I've seen Master Jinghui." Ran Yan also returned the Buddha salute.
Jinghui lowered her eyes slightly and said, "Don't dare to be." ”
Jinghui said, greeted Xing Niang and Wanlu again, and then led the group up the mountain. Fortunately, the uphill road was not too steep, and the mountain path was quite flat, and although the carriage could not walk, the porter was able to keep up.
Yingmei Nunnery is built on the half-way mountain about 50 meters high from the bottom of the mountain, on a semi-protruding platform, together with the courtyard is only a small half acre of land, the back is a steep cliff, the left and right sides are forests, and there is only one main gate to go in and out.
Near the main entrance, there is a huge bamboo forest, the bamboo is dense, pointing to the sky, like a natural screen, isolating the Shadow Plum Nunnery from the outside world.
The moonlight is sparse, and the wind is falling again. The night breeze blew across the bamboo sea, making a rustling sound, accompanied by a faint bamboo fragrance, Ran Yan immediately fell in love with this place.
It's so beautiful at night, and it's even better during the day.
"Lord Ran, the poor nun has already asked people to clean up a small courtyard in the nunnery for the Lord Ran to worship the Buddha, the incense of the Yingmei Nunnery is not prosperous, it is a little shabby, and I hope that the Lord Ran will take care of one or two." Jinghui's tone is slow and calm, which makes people feel comfortable.
"Since it's a Buddha worship, you have to be sincere, and I like it very much." Ran Yan said.
Jinghui glanced at Ran Yan from the corner of her eyes, and her heart was very disapproving of her words, it was not that there was no noble lady to worship Buddha before, and no one could live for more than three days.
Jinghui wordlessly sent Ran Yan and the others to the packed courtyard, saying that they could go to visit the owner of the nunnery early tomorrow morning.
The courtyard allocated to Ran Yan has four rooms, the main house is a wooden house with a corridor, the bamboo house on one side is simple to build, two are side rooms, and one is a simple kitchen, it seems that this is usually a place to receive pilgrims.
Xing Niang and Wan Lu immediately began to light up the lamps and make up the couch, while Ran Yan was wandering around idlely, looking at the environment.
Ran Yan said that he wanted to meditate and worship the Buddha, so except for Xing Niang and Wanlu, he only picked a Xiaoman from the batch of slaves sent by the Gao family, and the rest of them all stayed in Zhuangzi.
After the porters had put them all in their houses, they all left the Shadow Plum Temple, and the courtyard, which had seemed to be crowded and noisy just a moment ago, was suddenly quiet and empty.
After hastily cleaning up, several people went to bed with a tired body.
Ran Yan slept in the car for a while, lying on the couch without the slightest sleep, so he lit the mosquito repellent incense brought by the evening green in the room, opened the window, spread a mat under the window, and sat cross-legged to breathe and breathe. The mountain air is refreshing, like the moonlight shining on Ran Yan's body, with a faint clear glow, if someone sees it at this time, I am really afraid that it can be mistaken for the Moon Palace Fairy.
After sitting for a while, Ran Yan felt a little cool, so he got up and wanted to close the window, when he suddenly smelled the aroma of barbecue.
Ran Yan was stunned for a moment, this is a nunnery, will it smell of barbecue?
Ran Yan only ate some snacks for dinner, and after smelling it for a while, he also felt a little hungry, so he got up and put on a satin robe, and followed the fragrance to find the person who stole food in the middle of the night.
The moonlight was clear, and the surrounding scenery was extremely clear. Ran Yan's yard is in the south of Yingmei Nunnery, and further south, it is all woods, Ran Yan paused in front of the forest, carefully looked at the surrounding situation, there are several vegetable gardens in front of the woods, and the forest behind is not an ordinary wild tree, but a fruit tree, with large and small green fruits on it, which is blocked by the shadow of the leaves, Ran Yan can't tell what fruit it is for a while, but this should be the fruit forest of Yingmei Nunnery.
Ran Yan tightened the satin shirt on his body and walked towards the fruit forest.
This fruit forest is huge, so big that it is beyond Ran Yan's expectations, after walking for a long time, the aroma of meat is getting stronger and stronger, but unfortunately I can't find the person who stole it, Ran Yan said in his heart, this nun must often steal food, otherwise it can be hidden so tightly.
Ran Yan looked back at the road he saw and felt that he couldn't go any further, when he first came here, it was always a little unsafe to walk too far in the middle of the night.
Thinking about it, Ran Yan sighed slightly and turned to leave.
After walking a few steps, a cool breeze suddenly appeared behind her, and a cold piece rested silently on her neck.
Ran Yan was slightly startled, and before he could move, he heard a cold and bone-chilling voice, with a strong killing intent, "No one told me not to enter this forest, don't you skip words."
"Nope." Ran Yan suppressed the apprehension in his heart and said calmly, "I first came here today, and when I smelled the smell of meat, I followed it. ”
"Ran Seventeen Niang." The cold voice revealed his identity as he withdrew the sword resting on her neck.
Ran Yan turned around and saw a man in a black power suit, tall and strong, the power suit that fits his body outlines his perfect body shape, broad shoulders and narrow waist, fair skin glowing with cold light in the moonlight, deep eye sockets, high nose bridge, like a Westerner's three-dimensional, and the dark shadow falling from the arch of his eyebrows covers his eyes.
This person stood quietly half a foot away, his black hair scattered, reflecting a handsome face with a white halo, like a goblin in the moonlight, handsome and suffocating.
"Come on." Su Fu casually plunged his long sword into the dirt, turned around and left.
Ran Yan paused, thinking to himself, if he went back now, would he kill her in a fit of rage, and after weighing, Ran Yan chose to go with him.
Su Fu's steps seemed leisurely, but it only took a few steps to throw Ran Yan far away.
After turning two corners in the forest, a bamboo forest barrier appeared in front of me, and I walked less than two feet along the bluestone path between the bamboo forests, and my eyes suddenly opened up.
A bamboo courtyard, two small rooms, and many low bamboo huts around, from time to time there is a sound of "cooing" or "quacking".
Ran Yan glanced at Su Fu's back suspiciously, such a cold-blooded killer actually lived in seclusion here to raise chickens and ducks? I also heard that he is the eldest son of the Su family, the son of a family, and will become a killer who kills people without blinking?
After passing the bamboo forest, I heard the sound of bubbling water, and the shallow stream in front of the courtyard gate shimmered in the moonlight. A low bamboo bridge was erected over the stream.
There was a strong smell of meat all around, and a burning fire could already be seen in front of me.
Ran Yan was secretly frightened, it was a hundred meters away from where she was standing, and he was actually her?
"Sit." Su Fu sat down on the mat next to the fire, took a roast leg of lamb from the fire, and took out the dagger from where at some point, and quickly sliced the meat on the leg of lamb into pieces and placed it on the large plate in front of him.
Suddenly, he glanced up at Ran Yan, and seemed to feel that she had nothing to do, like a trick, and there was an extra dagger in her left hand, and she threw it to Ran Yan, "Cut the other one." ”
Ran Yan was stunned for a moment, and secretly wondered in her heart, it seems that she is not familiar with him? It's just a mistake to break into a forest, how will things get to this point?
While thinking, Ran Yan took off another roast leg of mutton according to his words, reached out and took a flat-bottomed basket next to him, and dissected the leg of mutton neatly, first extracting the whole leg of mutton bone, and then cutting it into thick slices along the texture.
The moonlight was quiet, there was an occasional crackling sound or two in the fire, and the two people who met in the water were each concentrating on cutting their own leg of mutton, and the atmosphere was filled with a peculiar smell.
Yes By].
