Attack Jade (攻玉) - Chapter 17

[Chapter 15]

When the Absolute Saint and renunciation returned to the Qingyun Temple, it was already nearly noon.

The doorway was silent, not even a bird, and when they stepped up the steps, they found two blue button calves parked under the wall on the east side.

Absolute Saint Qi said, “Didn’t Master Say That You Closed Your Eyes today, why are there still guests coming?”

Abandoning Zhi looked down, the car was simple and light, and it was not carved, but on closer inspection, whether it was a hub or a balance yoke, it was stronger than the ordinary calf car.

There was a miscellaneous servant sitting on the top of the car, and when he saw the two of them, this man jumped out of the car and bowed his hand, “I have seen two road chiefs.” This miscellaneous servant had

white skin and no beard, a smile like a Buddha, a saint and a renunciation of wisdom, but in his heart he could not help but speculate about the origin of the owner of this car, and even the driver under his hand was extraordinary.

As he walked inside, Ren Zhi said, “Before we left in the morning, Master Brother had said that The soul of Lady An Guo had been out of her body for too long, and it was not easy to find it, but now there is a method, but we need another person with advanced Dao skills to help arrange the formation.” The person that the master said should not be the owner of the calf car. “I

think so too, otherwise how could Master And Brother let that man in?”

The two men hurried back to the scripture hall, there was no one in the main hall, and King Chun’an and Yu Fengyu had already left.

In the ear room on the east side, someone was talking in a low voice, the voice of the master brother was easy to distinguish, and the voice of another middle-aged man was also a little familiar, the voice was mellow and low, and the internal force did not seem to be under the master brother.

Just as I was about to knock on the door, there was a squeak, and someone came out.

Frightened, they leaned back, “Brother Master! “What

are you sneaking around, and how are you doing?” Lin Chengyou’s voice was deliberately lowered.

The Absolute Saint and the Renunciation of Wisdom became more and more nahan, and when they saw the appearance of the master and brother, they clearly respected the person inside.

“Done, done.”

Ren Zhi nodded desperately, “That’s right, Lady Teng’s emerald sword has lost its spiritual power.”

Lin Chengyou smiled and took the lead in walking outside, asking as he walked, “What did you do what I said?” The

two of them told Fang Cai about it.

Lin Chengyou took a step: “That is to say, if I don’t put the Spirit Ring into it in advance, you will lose a pack of itchy worms in vain, and you will not be able to deceive the Emerald Sword?” ”

We’ve worked very hard, but whoever calls Teng Niangzi is not stupid at all.”

Lin Chengyou knocked over with a burst of chestnuts: “The two most stupid under the heavens are here, and the nature outside can’t be stupid.” What about swords? Where is the sword? Absolute Saint was discouraged: “The

sword is still in Lady Teng’s hand.” Zhi Zhi

straightened his chest and said urgently, “She won’t hand it over to us, we can’t always grab it.”

Lin Chengyou smiled angrily: “It’s really a headache, how can I have such a stupid disciple.” The

Absolute Sacred Heart said vainly, “But Lady Teng will definitely come to us with her sword, maybe tomorrow night she will go to the Cai Feng Lou.” Lin Chengyou was

just about to go down the steps, when he stumbled at his feet: “Cai Feng Lou? You told her about cai feng lou? Zhi Zhi cried

and said, “Brother Master, we are not good at deceiving people. If we let Lady Teng come to Qingyun Temple to find her brother, the brother may dry her for ten and a half days, and remind her to go to the Caifeng Building, and she will be able to find the brother immediately. Lady Teng just wanted to get some itching worms, but we turned her baby into waste, and I couldn’t bear it. Lin Chengyou’s face darkened

: “Okay, you are all bodhisattva hearts, and the bodhisattva should be practicing in a quiet and quiet place, why are you still hanging out in front of me, an evil person, and you have to die alive before you stop?” Immediately get me out of the confinement room and not come out for a month. The

two were ashamed and anxious, and could not help sobbing, the voice reached the back, the original quiet compartment, someone coughed, this voice is not high or low, there is a sense of kindness and generosity, carefully pondered, quite like exhorting Lin Chengyou.

Absolute Saint and Renunciation of Wisdom were strange, and Lin Chengyou touched his ears: “Well, before leaving, I taught you sentence by sentence, but as a result, you were still deceived by her.” You say that if you are soft-hearted, you are soft-hearted, why don’t you want to think about it, if you don’t let Lady Teng eat a lesson fiercely, she will still fight the idea of Qingyun Guan in the future, only by letting her know the jealousy completely, this matter can be stopped. Don’t you say that you help Guan Li to put an end to the troubles, but also foolishly intercede for her, is it difficult to be willing to be deceived by her a few more times? Absolute

Saint and Renunciation Zhiqi shook their heads in unison, and then wiped their noses again, “But… Maybe Lady Teng just wants to get a few tickles to play with, and may not lie to us in the future.

Lin Chengyou said, “She is not a child, she knows the harm of this insect, and what else can the worm do to deceive the insect can only be to harm people.”

Renunciation of wisdom and absolute saint thought with tears in his eyes, the brother seemed to have a reason, the itch worm attack can make life worse than death, the master brother knows the power of this bug, although he usually raises and plays, but never easily takes it out to tease people.

In their memories, the master brother let go of the worm twice.

Once to deal with a lustful old Taoist monk from out of town.

The thief Dao was a lot older, but his heart was surprisingly bad, he cheated people out of money and money with the evil door, and he also wasted a lot of women, and after the master brother caught this old Daoist, he released dozens of itchy insects to the old Daoist in one breath, and specially selected the largest of the insects, so that they could play with the old Daoist in prison.

The other time, it was the night before in the Ziyun Building to deal with the lie-ridden Dong Erniang.

In contrast, Teng Niangzi’s act of deceiving the itchy insect is indeed incomprehensible, and it is no wonder that the master brother suspects that she is not a good person.

The two wiped their tears and nodded, “Master and Brother have taught you the lesson.”

Lin Chengyou rubbed his eyebrows: “This matter is counted as your mess, but Master Brother I am used to it, just by virtue of the small heads of you two melon seeds, which day I will not be surprised if I don’t smash it.” What about the other thing I told you to do? What did that Du Niangzi say when she woke up, and did she tell you who asked her to go to the bamboo forest?

Zhi Zhi muttered in disbelief and said sullenly: “Du Yuzhi said that his daughter did reveal the truth after she woke up, but because it concerned the privacy of the Du family, he could only say it to Shizi alone.”

Lin Chengyou sneered, “They don’t know how many women that tree demon killed?” Since the Du family knows the inside story, they should say it immediately, and what qualifications do they have to talk to me about the conditions?

Abandoning Zhi scratched his head: “Listening to Du Yuzhi’s meaning, that matter seems to be very tricky, and now the Du family is desperate for the help of the master brother, but they seem to be jealous of something, and insist on only telling the master brother.” Lin Chengyou vaguely guessed

what the Du family was worried about, thinking that it was about Du Niangzi’s reputation, he pondered in his heart, and did not bother to say it, only turned around and walked forward: “When to say?” Where to say it? “As

long as the brother is willing to agree to the Du family’s request, Du Yuzhi will come and tell him immediately.”

Lin Chengyou looked at the sky with his hands in his hands: “Today’s view is going to be deployed, and I am very busy at the moment.” You sent people to Du Mansion to spread the word, I have no interest in spreading the privacy of others, but my patience is limited, and I limit the Du family to send a representative to Qingyun Temple before tomorrow to tell me the original version of that night’s events, and not a word is allowed to be changed. Absolute

Saint Dou Dong ran down the steps: “I will entrust someone to pass on the word.”

Ren Zhi asked, “Brother Master, if Lady Teng goes to Cai Feng Lou tomorrow night, will you see her?”

Lin Chengyou smiled and asked, “Why do we want to go to Cai Feng Lou?” ”

“Get rid of the evil.”

Lin Chengyou touched the head of Ren Zhi: “Since it is to remove the qi, where do I have the time to deal with irrelevant people?” Abandoning

Zhi was stunned, this is going to hang out with Lady Teng? They were originally a piece of good intentions, and they ended up doing bad things.

However, Lady Teng didn’t seem to be the same as the usual family woman, and she said timidly, “What if she has to see her brother?”

Lin Chengyou smiled and nodded, “Come, let her come.” She had better obediently admit her mistake to me, and take the initiative to return the tickle to me, if she dares to play tricks, destroy a magic weapon, I still have good things waiting for her.

Abandoning Zhi was anxious to scratch his ears and scratch his cheeks, the master brother was angry, if Teng Niangzi went tomorrow night, she was afraid that she would suffer a big loss, should she send a letter to Teng Niangzi? I was afraid of being caught by my brother. As soon as I looked up at this thought, I found that my brother was stepping on the bucket and began to draw symbols in front of the well.

Looking at it, the painting is “The Gate of Xuanmu”.

This gate is the root of heaven and earth, and after the soul of Lady An Guo fell into the nether realm, she wandered and refused to return, and the master brother forged a Xuanmu Gate and used this method to lure her back.

Abandoning Wisdom rushed up to help, there was an object on the case in front of the well, which was covered with a dark square cloth, and the square cloth was picked up, revealing a young tree inside, the branches were green and lush, and there was a kind of enchanting beauty.

Ren Zhi’s eyes widened slightly, and it turned out to be the original fetus of the tree demon.

The Absolute Saint returned to the courtyard and was quite surprised to see this situation: “Brother Master, since you want to lure the soul of the Duchess of Anguo back, why did you enshrine the Tree Demon here?”

Lin Chengyou said, “Lady An Guo was killed by this tree demon, who is the person she hates the most now?” Zhi

Zhi blinked his eyes, “Dryad! The

Absolute Saint clapped his hands, “I know, using the breath of the Tree Demon as bait can arouse the resentment of the soul of Lady An Guo, who has an obsession, and the chance of finding it is also greater.” “Moreover

, I have drawn a fake Xuanmu Gate here, which is equivalent to setting up a target at the Qingyun Temple, and when I break the evil charm outside the View, the wandering souls of Man Chang’an will be attracted.” Although this tree demon had been beaten back to its original form, the yin qi was still there, and it was left in the courtyard, and the ordinary lonely soul wild ghost did not dare to come close, and when it came to the time to really attract the soul, it saved a lot of trouble.

Lin Chengyou said, re-examining the organs in the courtyard, and after making careful preparations, he took out from his arms the piece of paper that An Guogong had drawn in the morning.

“If there are footprints on the head of the ‘stop chasing powder’, it means that there is a soul coming, you compare it carefully, as long as the two do not match, immediately drive away, if it is consistent with the footprints on the paper, find a way to lead the soul of the Duchess of Anguo to the well.”

“Yes.”

Lin Chengyou reminded them: “Be careful, there is no impersonation, as long as you dare to impersonate, it must not be a good stubble, and the opportunity is rare for you to go through the experience.”

“Rest assured, Master.”

At this moment, there was a strange noise in the prayer hall, and the closed compartment door was opened on both sides, and a red line flew out of it and shot straight in front of the well.

The astonishment of renunciation of wisdom and absolute holiness was no wonder that Master and Brother respected that person so much, and this person’s internal strength was so deep that he was not even under Master’s respect.

This red line is extremely thin, and there is a small bell hanging every few inches, and it is strange that this bell is obviously swinging endlessly by the wind, but there is not even a trace of movement.

Lin Chengyou fished back and grabbed the red thread steadily: “Go, tie it to the well.” The

man in the compartment clutched the other end of the red thread, and when the discarded wisdom tied the red line above the wellhead, the red line suddenly tightened, and the red line was extremely tight like a bowstring.

Cigarettes lingered in the prayer hall, and there was a faint sound of chanting incantations. The bell above the red thread sounded golden and jingled.

Absolute Saint and Renunciation of Wisdom were shocked, Lin Chengyou plunged to the edge of the well, swung his sword directly at the east wall, and raised his voice: “Cheng Lishi, don’t you want to return?” Overhead,

the sun was in the sky, and in an instant the clouds covered the sun, and a huge cloud shrouded the sky, and the entire courtyard fell into darkness.

The Absolute Saint and the Renunciation of Wisdom were like a great enemy, and they rushed to sit down under the porch, and the ground was covered with light powder, as long as the undead came, they were bound to appear.

Lin Chengyou stood on the edge of the well with his sword, looking at the courtyard with bated breath, and the needles around him could be heard, and suddenly a gust of yin wind blew.

Just listening to the sound of a bang, the courtyard door slowly pushed open.

Subsequently, accompanied by a smell of filth, a red-gold footprint suddenly appeared on the ground, the footprint was extremely small, obviously not the soul of the Duchess of Anguo.

Absolute Saint and Renunciation of Wisdom scalp numb, come so fast, this thing must be quite fierce.

***

Teng Yuyi looked at the sun overhead, it was already noon, Cheng Bo went to work according to her instructions, until now there was no shadow, waiting for a while without news, she simply got up to visit her cousin, just when Mrs. Du sent someone to find Teng Yuyi, saying that the lunch was arranged, let Teng Yuyi hurry over to dinner.

Teng Yuyi arrived at Yilan Xuan, Du Tinglan drank the medicine and then slept, the meal was set up in the outer room, Lady Du and Du Shaotang were waiting for her, Du Yuzhi only took half a day off, which would return to the Guozi Prison early.

Du Fu said, “I should have taken care of the wind and dust for you, who knew that such a thing happened, it was too late to prepare well in the morning, I made a few dishes in a hurry, and I didn’t know if it was suitable for your stomach.”

Teng Yuyi sat down happily, the table was almost full of her favorite dishes, her eyes wandered on the table, and she asked excitedly: “All made by my aunt?”
Madame
Du smiled and handed the tooth basket to Teng Yuyi: “Try it.”

Teng Yuyi clipped a piece of jade dew ball, full of praise: “I don’t worry about anything else in Yangzhou, I worry about the dishes made by my aunt, this time back to Chang’an there were so many things, I thought it would take a few days to taste my aunt’s craftsmanship, I didn’t expect to eat it so quickly, it was still so delicious.”
Madame
Du was happy to close her mouth, and personally filled a bowl of millet for Teng Yuyi: “Last night my aunt was frightened, and she did not close her eyes one night, you were resting in the neighboring house, I heard that it was also difficult to sleep, and when the meal was finished, the two women went back to the house to rest.”

Du Shaotang sat down on the opposite side and said curiously, “Jade Cousin, the maid next to you asked me for Chang’an’s map, do you want to go out?”

Teng Yuyi said, “I haven’t been back to Chang’an for several years, but this time I want to go around, I’m afraid that the coachman is not familiar with the road, so I have to look for a map to see.”

Du Shaotang smiled, “Why bother so much, I can’t just go out with my cousin Yu.” I am now studying in Guozijian, and I occasionally go out with my classmates, and the streets and alleys of Chang’an City are strange, and I have long been familiar with them.

Teng Yuyi took a sip of cane syrup, as if inadvertently: “I heard that Chang’an City recently opened a Persian liquor store, the owner is Persian Hu, brewing a good hand of wine, the liquor store has a common name, called Hongxia Lou or what Yunfeng Lou.” Du Shaotang pondered

for a moment: “I have never heard of such a Persian liquor store, but there is a Caifeng Building, which has recently become famous in Chang’an.”Queqi, I went to the same window a few times, and when I came back, I admired the Caifeng Building, but I only listened to their discussions and never saw them with my own eyes. Teng Yuyiqi

said, “Why do you have a lot of respect for that place, is there anything outstanding about this Cai Feng Lou?”

Du Shaotang peeked at Madame Du and said, “Nothing more than saying that the wine and food are very good…”

Then he changed the subject: “Jade cousin, if you want to find fine wine, why go to the liquor store outside, Sister Ah brewed a jar of osmanthus for you last year, and buried it under the begonia tree in the corner of the courtyard, saying that when you come, you will dig it out for you to drink.” Teng Yuyi

couldn’t wait to put down his teeth and turned his head to look around: “Where is the wine?”
Madame
Du smiled and said, “You child, as soon as you talk about wine, your eyebrows flutter and dance, and the wine is buried under the tree, and you don’t have long legs and can’t run.” You sit me well, you are tired for a while, don’t worry about drinking, take a good rest today, and ask Lan Er tomorrow if it is too late.
After
eating, Teng Yuyi went to the neighboring room to rest, took out the jade sword and wiped it against the Xuan window, and the more he wiped his brow, the tighter it became.

Chun Rong and Bi Luo did not know, in the morning when Niangzi and the two little Daoists talked, they were far away, and they didn’t know what had happened, but since the little Daoist left, Niangzi had taken her sword out from time to time to see.

“Take a nap while you’re fine.” Chun Velvet said.

Teng Yuyi slowly lay down on the bed and raised his sword high in front of his eyes to study it carefully.

“Lady, are you really going to go to that Cai Feng Lou tomorrow?”

“Let Cheng Bo inquire about what Taoist temples there are in Chang’an.” Teng Yuyi tucked his sword under the pillow, “Or a Daoist who is advanced in The Dao, if you inquire, let him come and talk back to me as soon as possible.” She didn’t

believe it, Chang’an was so big, there must be a lot of strange people and strangers, could Lin Chengyou alone be able to solve it?

“The slave will pass the word.” Chun Rong tucked the quilt for Teng Yuyi, “But the slave lady heard that the Qingyun Temple is the First Avenue View of Heavenly University, and it is not easy to find a rival to it in Chang’an City.”

Teng Yuyi secretly felt that this was disappointing, and his nose hummed before he was about to brew up drowsiness, and suddenly opened his eyes and turned his head on the pillow: “Hey, my ragdoll.”

Qi Yun came in with a small gray rag doll: “In the morning, I was washed by Sister Biluo, and now I am drying, you smell it, and there is still the fragrance of the sun on it.”

Teng Yuyi took the puppet and turned over, humming in his mouth, “Be careful, if you lose it for me, I will never spare you.”

Chun Rong and Bi Luo couldn’t help but laugh, although the lady was not very old, she had long been accustomed to making up her own mind about everything, but every time she returned to sleep, she was still like a child who could not leave the ragdoll left by the lady.

Overhearing someone whispering outside, Teng Yuyi said busily, “Is Cheng Bo back?” Take a look.

Bi Luo went out and took back a map: “The Grand Duke sent it, Lady, are you really going to go to that Cai Feng Lou tomorrow?”

Teng Yuyi turned over and sat up, took the map and studied it: “Hey, this restaurant was originally in PingkangFang.” It wouldn’t

be a brothel.

Lin Chengyou took two disciples to the brothel to do something.

Bi Luo and Chun Rong also leaned over to the bedside: “Ah, that’s not very close to Qin Ren Fang, it will take more than an hour to come and go, Lady, whether you go or not, at the latest tomorrow and noon will have to make a decision, and if you leave later, you can’t rush back to Du Mansion before dark.” ”
