Attack Jade (攻玉) - Chapter 97

[Chapter 66]

According to the arrangement of the abbot Yuanjue, Du Tinglan was originally going to be sent back to Teng Mansion or Du Mansion, but because Du Tinglan insisted on staying with Teng Yuyi in the temple for one night, even she went to Dayin Temple together at the end.

The Dayin Temple occupies a vast area, about four times the size of Yuzhen Nuguan Guanguan. The Jingshe in the backyard is divided into an east wing and a west wing. The east wing is for female guests and the west wing is for male pilgrims. The Buddha Hall, Incense Hall, Stupa, Cloud Hall, etc….they are facing each other without disturbing each other.

On the east wing, there were originally four shrines, but the roof of Quanfang Pavilion leaked a while ago, and Mengliangxuan was a little old. These two places are now being repaired. Only Xuanpu Pavilion and Libaixuan are available for female guests. live.

The monk Mingxin in the temple has always been in charge of arranging accommodation. After listening to the abbot’s arrangement, he led Teng Yuyi and others to the entrance of Xuanpu Pavilion.

“The east wing of Xuanpu Pavilion is always ready for the queen to come to pay homage to the Buddha. For the time being, only the west wing can be accommodated. Now we have built two suites. As for Li Baixuan, this pavilion is behind Xuanpu Pavilion, and the environment is better. Be more secluded… Tanyue people can discuss with each other how to live.”

Peng Huayue and Peng Jinxiu hurriedly said: “Master, let’s live in Xuanpu Pavilion.”

Teng Yuyi knew how the Peng sisters planned, Xuanpu The pavilion is not only full of sunshine, but also closer to the Buddhist temple, but this is exactly what she said. In her previous life, she heard the bad news of grandpa in Xuanpu pavilion. But she never wanted to step into Xuanpu Pavilion again, so she followed the flow: “Then I will live in Libaixuan.” Li Huaigu asked Mingxin: “I dare to

ask the Master, how many rooms are there in Libaixuan?”

She looks like she wants to live in the same house with Teng Yuyi.

Ming Xin said: “This house was renovated from a corner of the garden, with only one apartment in a narrow area.”

Li Huaigu had no choice but to laugh: “Alright, then I’ll live next door to Aunt Peng and Erniang Peng. .”

Several people had to be placed in their own places, and another monk on the path hurriedly led a few people over.

Walking in the forefront was a little lady wrapped in Lingluo, with her hair in a double bun and beaded emeralds all over her temples, followed by several maids.

The master and servant are all in a hurry.

Teng Yuyi and Du Tinglan looked at each other in surprise: Duan Qingying.

Duan Qingying’s master and servant quickly approached.

The little monk who led the way said to Mingxin, “Duan Tanyue said that he also had a few words with the monk in the peach forest, worried that evil things would come to her, and insisted on staying in the temple for a few days.”

Duan Qingying bowed her body in fear. : “I’ve disturbed the abbot and all the mages.”

Teng Yuyi wondered in his heart, how could he be so frightened? If Abbot Yuanjue had not personally confirmed that Duan Qingying was okay, she would really wonder if Duan Qingying was infected with evil spirits.

Duan Qingying could live in Li Baixuan with Teng Yuyi or live in the same room with Li Huaigu. When she asked her where she lived, Duan Qingying glanced at the Buddhist hall not far away. Without hesitation, he said, “I’ll live in Xuanpu Pavilion.”

So Teng Yuyi lived alone in Libaixuan at the back, while Li Huaigu, Duan Qingying and sisters Peng lived in the west wing of Xuanpu Pavilion.

Although the two of Li Duan lived in the same apartment, there was a chess room between the two bedrooms. As long as the door was closed at night, they could not hear each other.

As soon as Teng Yuyi and Du Tinglan sat down and had a sip of tea, Cheng Bo came to see them off in person.

Because he was not sure that Teng Yuyi would stay in the temple for a few days, he could not wait to send Teng Yuyi’s daily necessities.

Not to mention clothes and jewelry, in addition to the books that Teng Yuyi often reads, tea leaves that Teng Yuyi often drinks, ink, ink, paper, inkstones, small puppets, embroidered puppets…

even the man’s head and clothes are given to him . Teng Yuyi prepared two sets.

These things alone filled two small carts. Cheng Bo didn’t think it was enough, so he also packed Chunrong and Biluo two big maids and delivered them.

When Chunrong and Biluo came, the quiet Li Baixuan immediately became lively.

玄圃阁里的那几位小娘子也没好到哪去，箱笼一箱箱往里抬，丫鬟婆子们在院子里穿梭不停，这阵仗哪像来避难，简直像来寺中游乐的。要不是明心和见性两位大和尚出来温声阻止，各府还不知要送进来多少东西。

滕玉意趁乱把端福找来，问他：“今日观里出事前究竟发生了何事？”

端福的脸色依旧不好看，开腔道：“那怪雷来的时候，老奴正待在北墙的银杏树上，那树高大，只要藏身在树梢就能看到桃林中的景象，老奴亲眼看到娘子回桃林，听到怪雷担心有变，就决定去林中跟随娘子，怎知老奴刚跳下树，北墙后头纵过一个人，那人轻功奇高，从头到脚裹着一件黑氅——”

黑氅人？！

滕玉意惊得险些站起来：“你瞧清楚了？”

端福点头。

滕玉意只觉得浑身血液往头上涌，乱了片刻，竭力让自己维持冷静：“好，你接着说。”

“老奴记得娘子说曾梦见这黑氅人杀害自己，可惜府里查了这么久，一直没能查到那人的来历，老奴今日在观里冷不丁看见那人，心知有异，不说此人的装扮与娘子的描述一模一样，就连轻功也是生平罕见。那人越过北墙，一下子就不见了，若是不追上去，日后未必再有机会查到此人来历了……”

端福一面说一面回想当时的情形，他情急之下先往桃林看了一眼，发现滕玉意和同伴们好好地在里头玩耍，再看远处的云会堂，也是风平浪静，心知机不可失时不再来，可若是换旁人一定追不上，只好嘱咐丁二和王长庚等护卫去桃林守好娘子，自己纵身追出了北墙。

Duanfu Qinggong and internal strength are both excellent, but he hesitated for a moment after all, and the martial arts of the black cloak man did not seem to be inferior to him. When he chased out, the black cloak man had already run away, and the black cloak man noticed that someone was chasing him. , Deliberately going around all kinds of detours in the alley, Duan Fu chased after a while and realized that something was wrong, and hurried back to Yuzhen Nuguan Guan, only to find that the pattern in the peach forest had already changed, and the lady was nowhere to be seen…

Listen . After these words, not only Teng Yuyi looked strange, but Du Tinglan was also stunned: “Ayu, I heard how that person seems to be trying to lure Duanfu away…”

Teng Yuyi was confused, but this was not what she was afraid of. , but something deeper.

If that person knew Duanfu, he must have known that Duanfu was her dead man. Unless something extremely urgent happened, Duanfu would never leave her without authorization.

But the man seemed to have predicted that Duanfu would be led away by a “man in black cloak”.

Strange, how could that person predict that?

Thinking about it, she stood up abruptly.

Could it be that the other party knew that their master and servant were looking for a “black cloak”? ! In deliberately arranging this scene, in addition to trying to attract Duanfu, the real intention is to test her.

Test her… test her if she remembers the past life.

A loud thunder exploded in Teng Yuyi’s ear.

impossible.

Immediately realized that this is not impossible.

She can remember the past life, why can’t others remember.

The conjecture shook her brain.

Could it be the man in the black cloak?

It is possible, after all, as soon as she and Duanfu died that night, only the black cloak people knew how their master and servant were killed.

The first thing she did after waking up was to check the black cloak man, and the black cloak man seemed to be aware of this. In order to understand the details of her side as soon as possible, he deliberately arranged today’s show.

She stared at Du Tinglan in a daze, which was not surprising, after all, she had already revealed her flaws.

The biggest flaw is the sister beside her.

In the previous life, my sister was killed in a bamboo forest, and in this life she encountered a tree demon in the bamboo forest again.

But my sister is still alive and well.

Not only is my sister alive, but my aunt is no longer like her previous life, because she suddenly passed away and she was sick.

This series of incidents is enough to make the black cloak suspicious.

Teng Yuyi stood at the table, the more she thought about it, the more her heart skipped a beat. Suddenly I heard A-jie ask Duanfu in shock: “Who is that person who scared A-Yu like this… Think about it, did that person reveal other flaws?”

Teng Yuyi was startled.

Yup. Weakness… Why didn’t she expect that after this time, the man in black cloak was no longer the vague shadow in his memory, but a living person.

In the past, she could only draw a portrait from memory, but this time he couldn’t hold it in any longer, and he actually took the initiative to bring it to the door.

Even if Duanfu failed to deal with him, he could always think back on the way of that person’s martial arts, and all this might be an important opportunity to find out the details of the black cloak. The key is that they know the route of the man’s escape today, and as long as they follow the investigation, they will not worry about finding clues.

Thinking of this, she quickly regained her composure and asked Duanfu, “Is Grandpa back?” The

fox finally showed its tail, and she had to notify Grandpa immediately.

Duanfu said: “Master went out of the city early in the morning to deliver a letter–”

Before he finished speaking, Chunrong said from outside: “Miss, Master is here. It happened that Abbot Yuanjue also came back from the palace, Master was talking to abbot in Yunhui Hall. What.”

Du Tinglan’s heart dropped to the ground: “Okay, no matter what the origin of that person is, let’s hurry up and tell my uncle about this.”

Teng Yuyi nodded, and suddenly thought that as soon as the strange thunder appeared today, the man in black cloak appeared to lead Duanfu away, whether it was just a coincidence or intentional. If it was intentional, and the heavy-duty suddenly appeared in the world, would it have something to do with the black cloak person?

This conjecture is really amazing, but when I think of the three tragic cases that Lin Chengyou investigated, and the rumored Yue Shuo Tongjun, I vaguely feel that these things are inextricably linked.

No, she had to remind Lin Chengyou as soon as possible.

Thinking of this, she raised her head and looked out the window. There were many people in the temple, and Peng Huayue and others lived in the yard next door. The movement here could not be hidden from the eyes of others.

How to remind.

She touched Xiaoyajian in her sleeve, quickly made up her mind, and whispered, “Go and ask if Lin Chengyou is still in the temple. If he is still there, help me send a letter to the two priests.”

* **

Lin Chengyou agreed to escort Abbot Yuanjue’s scriptures, but he didn’t dare to neglect him at all. He entered the temple and watched the monks put the scriptures into the Sutra Collection Pavilion in person. The scriptures related to Shura Road and resistance to weight. The Absolute Saint and Abandoned Wisdom are of great importance, so busy is also helping to find them.

Monk Mingtong brought someone over to deliver tea, Lin Chengyou suddenly said: “Master Mingtong has a Linghua mirror on him?”

Mingtong was stunned: “No. Do you want to look in the mirror now?”

Lin Chengyou looked at the shelf He smiled and said, “Oh, I’ll use it for investigation. I can’t buy it on the street temporarily, so I have to borrow it from the temple first.”

Juesheng and Qizhi scratched their heads in confusion, wondering what case would they investigate? Use diamond mirrors?

“So it is.” Mingtong folded his hands together, “Sir, wait

a moment.” After a while, Mingtong got someone to send a small diamond mirror.

Lin Chengyou took the mirror into his arms as if nothing had happened, and continued to flip through the scriptures in his hands. After a while, he turned his head to look at Juesheng and Qizhi over there. The two of them were burying their heads in the scriptures and didn’t pay attention to this side at all.

He quietly put down the scriptures in his hand, took a step back, turned around, and immediately went behind another row of bookshelves to see that there was no one left or right, and then took the Linghua Mirror out of his arms.

After taking the mirror, I realized how I was acting like a thief, and before I even started taking pictures, that weird feeling came out of my heart again, my heart seemed to be a little faster, and my throat seemed to be a little dry.

Then he snorted again, just to confirm with a glance, what’s the panic. He was still, his left hand went around his shoulders, pulled away his back neckline, and his right hand raised the mirror, aiming it at the back of his neck, then turned his head and turned his eyes to the back as much as possible. Only then can you see the piece at the back of the neck.

With the light coming in from outside the window pane, he finally saw where he wanted to see.

The red-golden brand is still there, not only there, but there is no sign of fading.

Lin Chengyou was stunned, so the Gu seal was still there.

The poison in the body did not go away.

A blank look flashed across his face for a moment, he was stunned for a moment, and slowly put the mirror down.

What the hell was going through his mind.

Isn’t this to be expected.

The one in him is not an ordinary gu poison, but “Wang Fu Ju”, which was originally just a Gu technique, but was later introduced into the Taoist Five Elements Yin-Yang Technique by an evil Dao named Liu Xia Sanren, which turned it into an evil sect The ultimate talisman technique.

This technique is named after the Taoist Zhouyi, but in fact it is related to witch and gu, corresponding to the nine three lines, and there are worms hidden in the copper cone.

“Those who practice this technique by mistake have Gu worms hidden in their blood. Gu worms restrain the sixth line, and destroy the sixth line. If a man practices this technique when he is young, even when he is old enough to understand love affairs, the worm will be in his heart. It makes people heartless and unintentional.”

He was already familiar with the words in this secret book, and he would never be wrong.

As long as the poison of the gu is not resolved for a day, it is impossible for him to be tempted by a woman.

So how could he be tempted by Teng Yuyi? That is simply impossible.

He recalled that passage, focused on reviewing the words “unfeeling and unintentional”, and thus convinced himself.

Now that he figured it out, he had nothing to think about. He put the mirror back in his arms and rewinded it to the front of the prayer rack. He stood in front of the bookshelf full of scriptures, trying to get his thoughts back, but he was still a little confused.

He frowned and thought for a while, then turned to look at Juesheng and Qizhi: “By the way, when did you two arrive at Yuzhen Nuguan Guan in the afternoon?”

Juesheng and Qizhi raised their heads: “Hurry up when you hear the news. It’s over, I’m almost there with my senior brother.”

“I heard from Master Jing Chen that you almost cried when you learned that Mrs. Teng was kidnapped?”

Qizhi rubbed his nose: “Miss Teng is ours. A good friend, and a good friend who was born and died. Can we not worry if such a good friend has an accident?

Lin Chengyou thought to himself, he and Teng Yuyi have dealt with each other so many times, and they are familiar with each other. Although she has a big temper and loves to hold grudges, People are smart and loyal, and the situation of dealing with the two monsters together is vivid in my mind. If it wasn’t for Teng Yuyi’s help, he would not have been able to saw off the fangs of the corpse so quickly and smoothly. From this point of view, he and she have indeed shared adversity.

In the afternoon, he would be so anxious because he heard that a friend who had been through adversity had been in trouble, and he would try to rescue Wudao from Dongmingguan, and he would try to rescue him.

Thinking of this, the doubts in his heart seemed to ease. Not a lot.

He glanced at the two junior brothers: “Do you often think of Mrs. Teng? Qizhi thought this question was weird, but nodded, ”

Of course, we often think of Madam Teng. When we went to a Taoist festival in Luoyang, Qizhi and I thought of Madam Teng when we saw the dim sum on the street. ”

“So do you want dim sum or Mrs. Teng?”

Juesheng tilted his head and thought for a while: “Ms. Teng often gives us snacks. We eat too much of her snacks, and we will naturally think of her when we see them again. ” ”

Lin Chengyou was startled, why didn’t he expect this, the reason why he would think of Teng Yuyi when he saw the rose was because he could always smell the fragrance of the flower on her body, and it was because other little ladies had been hanging in front of him for a long time. I will also remember the smell inadvertently.

As for the dim sum, I will think of Teng Yuyi, of course, because I have eaten the dim sum in their house.

When I saw Jiu, I thought of Teng Yuyi, of course, because she could always be seen drinking in Caifenglou.

…

and so on, almost all the doubts have been explained.

I see.

His expression suddenly became relaxed, he stroked his chin, raised his hand and took out a scripture, and suddenly a monk came to him outside: “Sir, there is a little Tanyue looking for you.”

Little Tanyue?

Lin Chengyou walked out quickly, but it was not Teng Yuyi who came.

Looking around, he didn’t even see Teng Yuyi’s shadow. He looked at the little lady standing in front of the steps again, and said lightly, “What are you looking for?”
