Attack Jade (攻玉) - Chapter 99

[Chapter 68: Catching Worms: Meet Under the Moon]

Teng Yuyi waited for Bi Luo to heat up another pot of wine, and Chun Rong said that the old man had come.

The East Wing originally did not allow male pilgrims to enter, not to mention that it was late, but Teng Shao was Teng Yuyi’s grandfather, and before coming, he explained the reason with the abbot of Yuanjue, so the temple not only allowed him to enter, but also specially sent two xiao Shami to lead the way.

Teng Yuyi and Du Tinglan both stepped forward to give Teng Shao a salute.

“Grandpa.”

“Blessed is my uncle.”

Teng Shao nodded to Du Tinglan, “Good boy, get up.” Saying

that, he turned his head to look at his daughter, who looked quite peaceful, in other words, when other children encountered this kind of thing, it was estimated that they would have been frightened and unincorporated. He was both relieved and sad, and the screen stepped back and said: “These days, I am at ease living in the temple, you can’t leave the guard around you, Fang Cai Grandpa went back and discussed a few words with the abbot, QuanfangGe is still repairing, but there are several Zen rooms in it that can be inhabited, and the abbot has agreed to live in it, so that if there is anything on your side, he can also come in time.” No

wonder Grandpa came so late. Duan Fu’s body is different from ordinary people, this is something that many people know, so the arrangement is not afraid of causing trouble to other little ladies.

Teng Yuyi said, “Grandpa, Duan Fu saw the Black Man today.”

Teng Shao paused, and after a moment he reacted that his daughter was talking about the person in the dream.

He was horrified, and the shock brought by this sentence was comparable to thunder.

“Where did you see it?” Yuzhen Female Crown View?

Teng Yuyi nodded and walked to the door of the courtyard to summon Duan Fu in.

Duan Fu told Teng Shao the original version of the day’ events.

Teng Shao looked at Duan Fu fixedly, there had never been a moment like this in the past, which made him feel absurd and frightened. Originally, it was just a shadow in her daughter’s dream, but now the person really appeared in reality.

“What is the number of martial arts of that person?”

Duan Fu was a martial fool, and in order to practice Qigong, he did not hesitate to turn himself into an eunuch, immersed himself in martial arts for many years, and had already thoroughly understood the nine streams and hundreds of families in the jianghu.

“It’s a bit like the light work of the Proms, but it’s not all about it. The Yaoyao Sect and the Bagua Palm are the same, emphasizing ‘body movement at will’, and whenever they perform light exercises, their posture is extremely fluttering, but the black people’s body technique is obviously a few points stronger.

Teng Yuyi was stunned, would this be too coincidental, when Peng Yugui of Cai Feng Lou pretended to be a Taoist, he once called himself “a person who is idle”, no, this is not a coincidence, don’t forget that Peng Yugui’s silver wire is exactly the same as the dark weapon of the Black Man.

She had long suspected that the two of them were in the same case.

This kind of magic was much faster to practice than ordinary martial arts, so Peng Yugui was obviously in his early twenties when he formally learned martial arts, but he learned it so well and so quickly.

Teng Shao asked, “You don’t see the number of that person’s way?”

Duan Fu narrowed his eyes, “At least the old slave has not fought with someone with this kind of martial skill.”

“With your eyesight, you can’t see the other party’s rules, that can only be a new sect.” Teng Shao said in a deep voice, “Studying the martial arts of a new sect is mostly to raise ‘soldiers’. Feng Feng, only because it is not time to show it, martial arts pay attention to knowing oneself and knowing the other, once he has exchanged hands with people several times, he will certainly reveal the flaws in his moves, this person has never shown this light skill in front of people, indicating that he is extremely cautious on weekdays, and does not want to show his horse’s feet before formal planning. This

was very reasonable, Teng Yuyi subconsciously looked at the Xuanpu Pavilion in front of him, according to Grandpa’s words, this black person was really a bit like the Peng family secretly raised.

In the past life, Chang’an suddenly appeared so many people who could do magic, once they were checked, they were all “Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals” raised by Peng Zhenfeng, but in the past life, they were all in the dark, and this life was known to her in advance, and the Black Qi people may be suspicious of what she knows, so they can’t resist doing it in advance.

But in the past life, when their master and servant were killed, the Peng family had already raised an army to start an incident, and what good would it do the Peng family to kill her again? After thinking about it, she still maintained the original guess that this person was not raised by the Peng family.

She told Grandpa all her speculations.

Teng Shao was silent.

Let’s not talk about the identity of the Black Man, how can this person know that Yu’er will dream of him killing people in advance.

Why would such a cautious person suddenly take action today…

Thinking of this, his face suddenly sank, could it be that during the time when he sent people to investigate the Black People, someone secretly leaked the wind? The other party learned that they were investigating themselves, so they took the lead first.

But this matter was arranged by him personally, and the people were also personally selected by him.

Cheng An, Duan Fu, and Huo Qiu had been working around him for many years, all of them were dead soldiers who swore to die, if they had different intentions, they usually had the opportunity to frame their father and daughter, so why bother to get a bunch of black people with high martial arts.

So it won’t be the three of them.

He has been commanding the army for many years and has always been invincible, and he still has the certainty of this knowledge.

So what went wrong.

Thinking about it carefully, after Ayu told him about this, his men had been ordered to investigate for a long time, and over time, the links were inevitably loose, and his old gang was now in a high position, and there were many people under his hands… There are also many places where the air leaks.

But even so, to find out the news from his side, you need to know something about the situation here.

Got some insight…

His eyes were cold, he couldn’t raise carbuncles, he had to start rectifying them immediately, but he thought about the suspicious people in his mind, and for a moment he wasn’t sure where the mistake was.

“You told me the route the man had escaped at that time.” Teng Shao said to Duan Fu, “When Ayu saw that person in his dream, it was in the moonlight, and today the sun is full, what kind of material is that person’s black, and there is a strange noise on his body, you should think about it.” Duan Fu responded: “The

man did not hesitate at every intersection, as if he had planned the escape route in advance, the old slave remembered that he had turned a total of four intersections, but when he was about to turn to the fifth turn, this person suddenly changed to the right, and he naturally delayed for a while, if it were not for the old slave rushing back to the Yuzhen Female Crown Temple, maybe he would be able to catch up with him.” The old slave remembered that the alley was Moth Lane. “Originally I wanted

to turn left, suddenly changed to a right turn…” Teng Yuyi said thoughtfully, “Either you are used to walking, subconsciously running according to the original route, and there is also a possibility that you deliberately want to confuse us…”

Du Tinglan snorted: “Moth Lane? The name is so familiar, trance where I have heard it.

Teng Yuyi and Teng Shaoqi looked at Du Tinglan, and Du Tinglan racked his brains for a while, helplessly saying, “I can’t think of it for a while.”

Teng Shao nodded, “Without further ado, Grandpa immediately went to investigate.” In the past, this person was in the dark, but now he has appeared, and it is easy to say that the more he looks down, the more flaws there will be.

Suddenly remembering what abbot Yuanjue had said today, he couldn’t help but turn his head and stare at his daughter, hesitate for a moment, and open his mouth: “Ayu, did you dream of your aunt on the day you drowned?”

Teng Yuyi was shocked: “Ah Niang?

Teng Shao reluctantly smiled, “When you were four years old, you once went to the Bodhi Temple on the shore, and it was your aunt who took you there, but at that time you were too young to remember.” Grandpa just wanted to ask, how many days did you see your aunt in your dreams when you passed by the Buddhist temple by boat? ”

Teng Yuyi’s heart was chaotic, since she woke up, the only thing in her dream was the charm of the fish, who had seen the Ah Niang she thought about day and night.

She lost her mind for a long time, and shook her head in confusion: “I never dreamed.”

Teng Shao was silent and said in a dumb voice, “Well, Grandpa left first.” ***

Xuanpu Pavilion.

Peng Erniang looked at the crisp and fat table full of it, and muttered vigorously: “Misstep, misstep.” Sister Ah had prepared so many good things, and the two little Daoists didn’t come at all.

Peng Huayue calmly turned a page of the book and did not answer.

Peng Jinxiu pouted, walked over and snatched the book in Peng Huayue’s hand: “Since calling Chang’an, Sister Ah has been reading all day. You should not see that Her Royal Highness the Empress likes to read poetry books, and you also want to hold the Buddha’s feet temporarily. Our Peng family has been practicing for a long time, even Ah Niang is the daughter of a military general, since we were young, we did not love to study, and we could not learn well temporarily.

Peng Huayue glanced at her: “Bring it!” She was

always a little afraid of this twin sister, so she returned the book, sat down on the bed, put her head in front of her sister and whispered, “Oh, when did Li Huaigu get so familiar with those two little Daoists?”

Peng Huayue sneered, “Where do I know?”

Peng Jinxiu played with the round grape-patterned silver sachet around her sister’s waist: “I know why Sister Ah is not happy, you probably look at Lin Chengyou -”

Peng Huayue was shocked, and quickly narrowed her eyes and “booed”: “You give me a little sound.” This is not in our own mansion, with ears on the wall.

Peng Jinxiu giggled and whispered to Sister A: “Oh, I know, Sister Ah either wants to be a princess, rest assured, no matter who you look at, your sister will not rob you, as for the one next door…”

Raising her eyebrows and glancing in the direction of the next door, she said: “No matter how good Li Sanniang looks at studying, she definitely can’t compete with Sister A, I heard Ah Niang say last time, her grandfather, in the past, was just a deputy general under Teng Yuyi’s grandfather, but because she made several great achievements before she was promoted, how can such an outbreak of upstarts be compared with our Peng family.” Peng Huayue’s

slender eyes slipped towards her sister, which made her look at her with surprise, and she couldn’t help but put down the book and smiled: “You, sometimes confused and sometimes smart.”

She groaned for a moment, then lowered her voice and said, “What about the one behind?” Her family has been a hero for generations.

Peng Jinxiu knew that her sister was referring to Teng Yuyi, and blinked her eyes twice and said, “I was about to say this to Sister Ah, Sister Ah rather than guard against Li Sanniang, it is better to pay more attention to Teng Yuyi, not to mention her grandfather Teng Shao, her grandfather Teng Yuanhao is a major minister of the country who ranks in the Ling Yan Pavilion, the military achievements made by the father and son of the Teng family in those years, no one can shake it so far, on the prestige in the dprk, the Teng family has never lost to the Peng family.” If the empress and princess Cheng want to choose a daughter-in-law, it is not unusual to look at Teng Yuyi, Sister, do you remember, last time in the Ledao Mountain Villa to make a name for the academy, the empress but took Teng Yuyi’s hand and asked for a long time…”

Peng Huayue slowly bowed her head: “Speaking of this, how can I not understand Teng Yuyi, the last time such a good opportunity to show her face, she was so good at committing rubella, the key is not to show traces… Splendid embroidery you say, is she really unlucky, or does she have a heart like this?

Peng Jinxiu was stunned: “Ah, Sister A didn’t say that I forgot, rubella will be committed, if she has the heart to do so, it can only mean that she does not want to marry into the royal family at all… Sister you see, Teng Yuyi eats and drinks all day long, which is like a person who loves to think about things.

Peng Huayue said, “But don’t forget, she and the Duan family have already retired, and General Teng can’t always find a family affair for his daughter that is worse than the Zhenguo Gongfu, but now looking at Chang’an, in addition to the few in the imperial family, which one is higher than the Zhenguo Gongfu Gate?”

Peng Jinxiu shrugged, “Teng Yuyi even said that a good relative like General Duan Xiao would retire, such a temperamental husband and wife may not have to choose Gaomen, don’t forget that Zheng Shuhui also thought about recruiting Lu Jinshi.”

Peng Huayue smiled slightly, “Yes, say that you are confused, sometimes you understand things better than Sister A.” I

overheard the voice coming from the opposite side, and it sounded like Li Huaigu had sent the Absolute Saint and renunciated wisdom out.

Peng Huayue looked out, and his face faded again.

Peng Jinxiu looked at the color and couldn’t help but become more and more strange: “Sister, why do you care about Li Sanniang so much?” As I said just now, she is far from us, and she doesn’t look like a scrambler.

Peng Huayue sighed, “You forgot what you said when Ah Niang trained us at Ledao Mountain Villa?” Such a delicate girl as the third lady is the most painful. You and I are such a high-ranking noblewoman, more or less a little tempered, but you look at Li Sanniang, appearance and learning needless to say, temperament is still so good, no matter when you see her, it is soft and whispered, Ah Niang said, cheng Wang Shizi and the prince of the little lang Jun eighty percent like such a little lady, really to the day of marrying a wife, really like can be more important than anything, what family lineage and prestige, in front of their kind of lang jun, all can be thrown away…”

Peng Jinxiu was stunned: “Saying this, it seems that there is some truth to it.” He

immediately waved his hand and stood up: “Hey, you rob you, anyway, I only want my Highness the King of the County.”

Saying that, he walked to the edge of the bed and sat down to look at the pile of beautiful and soft materials, and while choosing, he said beautifully: “Sister, which piece do you say is best to make a sachet for His Highness the King of the County?”

Peng Huayue glared at her sister angrily, and didn’t bother to answer the call, so she picked up the book and read it again.

***

Absolute Saint and Ren zhi heard that Li Huaigu lived next door to Teng Yuyi, and when they came to look for Teng Yuyi, they specially brought back the two tubes of high-grade purple.

The two had just found Li Huaigu’s side, but they were stopped by the Peng family’s mother-in-law, who smiled and said that she wanted to ask them for some charms and invited them to sit in the room.

The two hurriedly returned the pen to Li Huaigu, busy saying that they did not bring cinnabar, even if they wanted to draw the symbols, they could only wait for tomorrow, and the Peng family’s mother-in-law had no choice but to let them go.

Li Huaigu didn’t seem to expect that the Absolute Saint and the Renunciation Wisdom would come to her, and there was some surprise on his face, and when he saw that the two of them had arrived, he had to say: “I didn’t know that the two trail chiefs would come, and I originally wanted to go to the temple to walk around, and the trail chief went into the house and sat down.” People are still packing their bags, and the room is a bit messy. Saying

that the two were invited into the house, they were polite and polite, but they were not as attentive as the Peng family.

Absolute Saint and Renunciation Of Wisdom secretly breathed a sigh of relief, they were most afraid of the lady and the little lady who treated them warmly, first stuffed them with a bunch of food and play, and finally they could not avoid going around to inquire into the preferences of the master brother, before they were young, they had also been ignorant and understood many times, and then gradually grew older, they understood it.

Fortunately, this Li Sanniang is a quiet and polite person.

The maids in the room were really busy sorting out the boxes, and the Absolute Saint and Renzhi were embarrassed to add to the chaos, and they were busy taking Zi Hao out of their arms: “Third Lady Li, we can’t accept this, if the Lady wants to thank us for the gift of symbols in the Temple, it would be good to come to the Temple another day to offer incense.”

Li Huaigu was very happy to accept the pen: “That day I heard about such a tragic case in Xishi, I was also frightened to be anxious to ask for help, at that time I was bent on thanking the two Dao chiefs, and I did not think about it carefully, so it is good, then I will go to it another day.”Let’s take incense in your view. Tonight, I was tired of the two trail chiefs running in person, I really didn’t want to go, so late the trail chief should be hungry, it is better to eat something before leaving. Pushing

the tea fruit on the table over with his hand, Absolute Saint and Ren Zhi waved their hands: “No need, no need.”

Li Huaigu smiled: “Is it because of the contempt for the rough tea fruit?” I didn’t expect to visit in advance, but I did slow down the two trail chiefs. With

that said, the Absolute Saint and the Renunciation of Wisdom were not good enough to go, so they had to pick up a piece of dim sum from the glass cup and eat it in a gesture. Who knew that this snack was actually more delicious than the one in Lady Teng’s house.

The two of them took a bite and endured the worms to stop taking it, when the two ladies in the room carried a bunch of things from the bed to the back room, and accidentally rolled down a sachet ball, and the sachet grunted all the way over and landed at the feet of the absolute saint.

The Saint bent down to pick up the sachet, only to find that this sachet was some years old, and the cutouts on it were cracked, let alone used for more than ten years.

Abandoning his mind, he inadvertently glanced at it, only to see two words vaguely engraved on the top, “Ah” on the top, and “Ah” on the bottom…

Didn’t wait for him to look closely. The maid apologized in a loud voice, came over and took the sachet, the two of them looked at the room so chaotic, it was not good to stay any longer, qi Qi got up and said: “Poor Road farewell.”

Li Huaigu then asked the maid to send the two out, but there was a small Shami outside who came to send a message: “The abbot passed down the word, saying that Nai Zhong may first come to find Teng Tanyue tonight, in order to make the other three Tanyue not be disturbed, please ask the three Tanyue to move to the west wing immediately, there is no male guest in the west wing at the moment, and the Tanyue people just have to worry about relocating.” As

soon as these words came, the rooms of the Peng sisters and Duan Qingying suddenly became noisy, and the people under them were terrified to pack their bags, lest they stay in the east wing for a while.

Absolute Saint and Renunciation Of Wisdom sighed, how could they not have listened to the abbot’s arrangement before.

After Xiao Shami said this, he said to Absolute Saint and Ren zhi, “Two trail chiefs, Master Ming Tong has an urgent matter to find you, please go to the Scripture Cabinet as soon as possible.” Absolute

Saint and Renunciation of Wisdom were panicked on their faces, and they had not gone to look for Lady Teng until now, so what to do now, it seemed that they could only go back to the Scripture Cabinet first.

The two turned back to bid farewell to Li Huaigu, but saw that Li Sanniang was fixed on looking in the direction of the courtyard, her eyes were pale, and her face was also faint, which was not happy at first glance, because even the beautiful curvature she usually had on her lips did not see a shadow.

Before the two of them left, they wondered if Third Lady Li was unhappy because she was about to be removed temporarily?

***

After Teng Yuyi sent Grandpa away, he waited left and right in the courtyard, and still did not see the Absolute Saint and the Renunciation of Wisdom coming.

Du Tinglan heard the clamor of the Xuanpu Pavilion next door and wondered, “What happened?”

Chun Rong came back after inquiring about the news and said, “I said that I wanted the three ladies to move to the west wing immediately.”

Teng Yuyi and Du Tinglan were stunned: “Isn’t the West Wing only inhabited by men?” Chun Rong was

also puzzled: “It is said that it is the abbot’s temporary decision.”

Teng Yuyi asked again, “What about the two trail chiefs?” “It seems

to be gone again.”

Teng Yuyi was very surprised: “Strange.” Absolute

Saint and Renunciation Will Never Leave Without Greeting, suddenly leaving, most likely by something urgent, after thinking about it, she decided to continue to wait.

The sisters then drank for a while, Du Tinglan gradually felt cold on his body, Teng Yuyi had long since practiced martial arts, he did not know what “cold” was, But Du Tinglan was different, sitting and sitting was a bit unbearable.

Teng Yuyi hurriedly said to Du Tinglan, “Sister, you should go back to the house first, the chief of the trail said earlier that he would copy the scriptures and did not know when he would come, so I would wait in the courtyard for a while.”

Du Tinglan ordered Bi Luo to take a cloak for himself, and reluctantly sat with him for a while, and gradually even the stone bench felt a little cold, so he had to get up and say: “Sister A first go back to the room to wash, you don’t have to wait too long, sit for a moment and go back to the house to sleep.”

Teng Yuyi responded, drank alone for a while and felt bored, then raised the cup high, made a gesture to invite mingyue above his head to drink with himself, playing with it, suddenly remembering what Grandpa said, the look slowly dimmed, and he thought about Ah Niang for a while, feeling sad in his heart, and took advantage of the drunkenness to take out Xiao Ya’s sword: “Little old man, I have something to ask you.”

After saying this, Xiao Yajian did not move, but a slight noise came from the wall, and Teng Yuyi’s soul was suddenly scattered, and he was so frightened that he was busy shouting Duan Fu to see who that person was, but the words stopped abruptly.

The man wore a jade crown on his head and a round neck shirt with a jade-colored treasure elephant pattern, standing in a cloud of bright moonlight, which was very beautiful and handsome.

She had only seen it in the evening, and she was familiar with this man.

“Lin Chengyou?” Teng Yuyi froze.

Lin Chengyou glanced at Teng Yuyi, only to find that there were tears in her eyes, and he wondered in his heart, and raised his eyebrows: “Absolute Saint and Renunciation Zhi said, do you have something important to tell me in person?” ”
