This rain came too suddenly, but Su Hengyu was originally a person who liked to prepare early, so he put an umbrella and a coat in the carriage early in the morning.

The master and servant entered the ruined temple smoothly, cleaned up briefly, and then picked up the wood that had not yet been wet and made a fire.

Naturally, the fire was also made with the fire fold prepared by Su Hengyu in advance.

A pile of flames rose in the ruined temple, instantly warming most of the cold room.

At this moment, most of the light outside was blocked by low dark clouds, and the door of the broken temple was also closed to keep out the rain, and the temple became pitch black, and only near the fire was bright.

With this firelight, Su Hengyu looked around the broken temple, this is a temple of goddesses, I don't know how long it has been abandoned, many things in the temple are broken, only a dusty statue of the goddess remains, which is still intact.

Su Hengyu looked up, the tall goddess held a flower in one hand, lowered her eyes and looked down lovingly on everything in the world.

The temple of the goddess was only in the great Wei Dynasty when the incense was at its peak, and it went through several generations of kings later, because of the prosperity of Buddhism and Taoism, it gradually declined and was not heard of.

Su Hengyu himself couldn't tell the origin of this goddess temple, but now looking at it, he was a little embarrassed.

Ziyun's maids had already wiped the residual rain on Su Hengyu's body almost at this time, and they only needed to sit by the fire for a while, and it was estimated that it would be warm.

Lao Liu, who was driving the car, refused to sit with his master, so he had to go back to the car to watch.

Su Hengyu couldn't persuade him, so he put on all the clothes for him, stuffed him with a lot of pastries, and asked him to dry his clothes before going out.

The rain outside never stopped, and just when the girls in the temple were drowsy, the door of the broken temple was pushed open with a bang.

The cold wind outside mixed with the drizzle drifted in, blowing out most of the fire.

Several girls were alarmed, and hurriedly stood up and stood with Su Hengyu.

They shrank to the feet of the statue of the goddess, and Su Hengyu quietly picked up a broken small incense burner and hid it in the cloak, staring at the direction of the gate with a pair of eyes.

Soon, a group of people walked in.

They were all dressed in robes and hats, completely covering their bodies and appearances.

The one at the head looks very tall, and the momentum on his body is even more terrifying. As soon as he came in, he sat straight in Su Hengyu's previous position, and the only eyes that showed his eyes swept over Su Hengyu and the others.

At that moment, Su Hengyu only felt as if he was being targeted by some fierce beast.

She was extremely glad at the moment that she had found a hood to put on her head the first time she heard the movement.

"I'm sorry." The leader spit out a cold sentence, "We were on our way, but we encountered heavy rain, because there is only one place to hide from the rain here, so I took the liberty to come here, and I hope you don't mind." ”

His words fell, and the few people who followed him into the broken temple also arched their hands towards Su Hengyu and the others.

At this time, Su Hengyu saw clearly that each of them was holding a knife in their hands.

Although the knives are not unsheathed, just look at the delicacy of the scabbards to show that these knives are not ordinary goods.

Tsk, this is a problem.

Su Hengyu: "At the same time, the passers-by who rely on the blessings of the Goddess Temple can't say anything sorry or sorry." ”

Hearing her words, the leader glanced at Su Hengyu again.

Su Hengyu didn't understand the meaning of his eyes, after all, she couldn't see the other party's expression clearly at this moment.

Fortunately, the man quickly looked away and said to his subordinates: "Ah San, Ah Si, go pick up some firewood, the fire here is about to go out." Don't close the door too tightly. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, two people from the crowd came out and began to burrow into the rain.

Being reminded by him like this, Su Hengyu also found that the fire was indeed not as prosperous as before, but this was already all the things they could burn in the broken temple.

The two people called Ah San and Ah Si quickly found a pile of firewood, and I don't know how they got it, as soon as the two of them got started, the fire instantly became a little more prosperous than before, and even the entire ruined temple warmed up.

Then, the leader said to Su Hengyu: "Please sit down, I don't know how long it will rain outside, Miss is the one who came first, so you don't have to be so wronged." ”

Su Hengyu saw that the group didn't seem to be hostile to them, and the coachmen who stayed outside were not controlled, and they came inside from time to time to take a look.

Only then did she have the courage to take a few maids and find a place to sit on the side away from the man.

The ruined temple was quiet again, and in the midst of an indescribable silence, only the sound of the rain was the only pastime.

Fortunately, this kind of ordeal didn't last long, and after Su Hengyu realized that the rain outside was much lighter, she couldn't stay any longer.

She got up and saluted the man sitting by the fire: "The rain has subsided, and we have been here for too long, so the elders of the family are worried, so we left first." I hope you all have a safe journey. ”

Then, without waiting for the man to speak again, she pulled Ziyun and the others away quickly.

Lao Liu had long wanted to leave, and now that the master spoke, of course he was not unwilling, and several people hurriedly got into the carriage and left the broken temple quickly, and before leaving, the voice did not forget to throw down the incense burner in his hand.

As for how the incense burner was under the noses of a group of people, bouncing all the way to the man's feet, it was not something she should have thought about.

The rest of the journey was much smoother, and with a slight drizzle, Su Hengyu and the others finally failed to rush back to Zhuangzi before dark.

When Mama Qin received them, several people's clothes were more or less wet, but fortunately, she had already ordered the kitchen to cook ginger soup, and several people poured a bowl of it, and they were urged to take a hot bath.

Su Hengyu, who had dried his hair, didn't feel that he had finally come back to life until he lay back on the bed.

It was very warm inside, the beds were warmed by a kettle, and the sound of rain outside was only sporadically heard. It wasn't until Mama Qin walked into the house that Su Hengyu was almost about to fall asleep.

"Mama is so late, is there anything important to tell me?" According to the usual, Mama Qin would not come to Su Hengyu at this time, but today is a little special.

Mama Qin said: "Soon after Miss left Zhuangzi today, someone from the Hou Mansion sent a letter over, saying that the lady and the second lady miss you very much and hope that you will go back to the Hou Mansion for the New Year." ”

Su Hengyu frowned: "What do they mean by this, why did they suddenly find me?" ”

She has been living in Zhuangzi for a long time, and at the beginning, she didn't see the Hou Mansion looking for her, why did she suddenly want to go back for the New Year now?

Mama Qin smiled when she heard this: "It is estimated that our Wang family has made a move, and the position of the Hou Ye has changed somewhat." ”
