Chapter 49
Feng Yueming was helped off the horse by Shi Linchu, took a deep breath, and took out a pine nut candy from her small bag and fed it to Treading Snow's mouth, "I thought Treading Snow would stay in the capital." ”
"The Dark Guard brought it here. Shi Linchu patted the neck of Treadsnow, "When you encounter something, Treading snow is always faster than others." ”
"Wait to buy more sugar for the snow. Feng Yueming fed another piece of pine nut candy to Tread Xue, "This time it is a meritorious service." ”
"Chu Lin, Ning worried. Xie Zhengyi walked over with a frown, he had just asked He Ye about them, but he didn't know when the other two junior disciples were lost, and he didn't want to think about whether they had been killed.
"What's wrong?" Shi Lin Chu was halfway blocking Feng Yueming, after experiencing the chase just now, he was now very wary of anyone.
"Do you have any plans for the future?" Xie Zhengyi felt exhausted, he had been non-stop since he entered the Ningyang region, first rushing, then investigating, and now experiencing the pursuit.
"Let's find a place to rest and recuperate. Shi Lin was thinking about whether to put this matter aside first, he came out this time mainly to accompany and protect Feng Yueming, and now that the two of them were involved in a dangerous incident, it was not appropriate.
"Several donors. "A monk came and bowed.
The little monk clutched the hem of his clothes tightly beside him, his face covered with tears, looking like a frightened little animal.
"The town where the poor monk's nephew's house is located is not far from here. The monk spoke, "Now I can't take my junior brother with me when I go back to Baitao Temple, so I plan to send him home first, if so, can I have a few people with me?"
"Let's go there and recuperate. Feng Yueming whispered behind Shi Linchu, and inadvertently saw Tang Yancheng sideways, but he was facing his expressionless face, and as far as Feng Yueming understood him, he obviously did not approve of this plan.
-------------------------------------
"Big young master!" the butler looked at the little monk in surprise, as if he was very shocked by his sudden return.
"Donor, a group of thieves attacked Baitao Temple, and the poor monk could only send his nephew back first. The monk folded his hands and bowed.
"Come in, please. The housekeeper came back to his senses and hurriedly let the group in, "Who are these people?"
"These are pilgrims in the temple, and they were able to escape thanks to the escort of several donors along the way. The monk's tone was full of gratitude.
The housekeeper brought a few people to the flower hall, "A few wait a while, and let me go down and report to the lord and the lady." As he spoke, he looked at the little monk, "The eldest young master will go with the slave to wash and change clothes first." ”
"Hmm. The little monk nodded, obediently took the butler's hand, and left together.
As soon as the butler left, everyone sat in their chairs without saying a word, and exhaustion swept over their bodies.
"I don't know what happened to Baitao Temple now. Luo Qingqing said softly, breaking the dullness in the flower hall.
Xie Zhengyi sat next to Luo Qingqing, but he didn't say anything, he felt very tired now, although he was worried about the monks and pilgrims in Baitao Temple, but the group of black-clothed people didn't know where they came from, and they didn't know if Baitao Temple was safe now, but he couldn't rest assured that he didn't care about it.
"Brother Chu Lin, what do you think?" Tang Yancheng asked Shi Linchu, after all, he was still in the name of handling cases, and it was most appropriate for him to speak.
"Let's rest for the night, let's talk about it tomorrow. "If Shi Linchu was alone, he would go to Baitao Temple to have a look, but now that Feng Yueming was by his side, he didn't want to go back to Baitao Temple to investigate this matter, so he could only delay it for a while.
"Don't worry about a few donors. The monk opened his mouth, "The poor monks will go back to Baitao Temple tomorrow to investigate." ”
"Excuse me, master. Xie Zheng made a namaste, "Are there any Taoist people around Baitao Temple?"
After all, in front of the people in the official mansion, Xie Zhengyi said vaguely, and he asked if there were any people in the rivers and lakes who had gone dark.
"The poor monk's name is Jinghui. The monk replied, frowned slightly, thought for a while, and then frowned in distress, "Because of Baitao Temple, the people in the rivers and lakes near here will give the temple some face, and it is already a very strange thing that the young children in Ningyang are lost, not to mention that this time they directly attacked the temple." ”
"...... like this" Xie Zhengyi thought about the people in the rivers and lakes near Ningyang, most of them acted alone, and there were such a large number of people on the rivers and lakes, and they were still targeting civilians and monks, and it was the first time that the Ye Dynasty had appeared since the founding of the country.
"It's just a few chivalrous warriors who saved the child. A middle-aged man strode in and bowed his hand to the crowd.
The little monk changed into a yellow brocade robe, wore a small hat of the same color on his little bald head, and wore a gold lock around his neck, which looked completely different from his previous simple appearance, and was held by a woman.
The woman was dressed in a brocade dress, with a hairpin made of jadeite, a drop-shaped jade earring on her ears, and a Bazhen Yingluo around her neck, looking to be in her twenties, with a big belly and a gentle smile on her face, following behind the middle-aged man.
"Lord Li, Mrs. Li. Jinghui got up and saluted, "There was a sudden change in the temple, and the poor monk could only send his nephew back first." ”
"What's wrong with the temple?" Mrs. Li looked worried, "I also said that I would go to the temple with the master in two days." ”
"It's a long story. Jinghui obviously didn't want to tell the two of them what happened in the temple, "These people sent their teachers and nephews back with the poor monks. ”
"Thank you, a few knights. Master Li hugged his fists at a few people, "How about you rest in my mansion for one night tonight?"
"Then I'll be disrespectful. Xie Zheng saw that Shi Linchu had no intention of objecting, so he should make up the matter.
Shi Linchu had no intention of speaking, after all, he was not really from the rivers and lakes, and getting along with Xie Zhengyi and them in the past few days also made him find that he was still very different from the people in the rivers and lakes.
Tang Yancheng had a playful smile on his face, looking at Master Li and Mrs. Li without knowing what they were thinking.
"The two girls want to come all the way to the dust, why don't you go wash up with me first?" Mrs. Li smiled very kindly, "It will also be more comfortable." ”
Luo Qingqing nodded hurriedly, she really felt dirty and slimy, and her eyes lit up when she heard that she could take a good bath.
"Then trouble Madame. Feng Yueming smiled and looked into Mrs. Li's eyes.
-------------------------------------
Even in the guest room, it can be seen that a lot of thought has been wasted, and Feng Yueming found that the hot water was ready when she went in, and there were two maids on the side.
Feng Yueming's hand gently skimmed over the water of the bath bucket, and her face showed a look that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, this Li Mansion was more interesting than she imagined.
Drove the maid out and took a hot bath, Feng Yueming looked at the two sets of clothes on the table, one pink and one green, and chose the one she was familiar with without hesitation.
