Chapter 7 Thief(1/2)

Fu Tingyun also had a headache. But she soon thought that there was a moon-white twill standing collar cotton shirt in her box, and told Han Yan: "... Take it out and change it for me." She said again, "I'll pretend to make my mother Liu's face look unpretentious. Can she still force me? Then you can act according to the opportunity."

The two of them breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly went to find the cotton gauze shirt. They turned around and saw the changed coarse cloth dress. They hurriedly stuffed it into the stuffy cabinet beside them, and then they opened the door.

The windows were closed and the room was very stuffy. The black painted shelf bed was hung with thick moon-white cotton gauze tents. A pine bathtub was placed in the middle of the room, and the bathing water splashed on the surrounding blue bricks, forming large and small water droplets.

Seeing that there was nothing strange in the room, Liu's mother was blessed and looked calm: "The weather is so hot, why didn't Miss Jiu go to the main hall to enjoy the cool air? At least there is a bit of a serene atmosphere there!"

Fu Tingyun sat by the bed, Lu'e was rubbing her hair. Hearing this, he looked up at Liu's mother, grabbed the handkerchief in Lu'e's hand and wiped her head.

Lu'e looked at Liu's mother embarrassedly, feeling at a loss.

The atmosphere seemed a bit awkward.

Fortunately, Han Yan poured tea over and said, "Mom, please use tea!"

Liu's mother thanked her and took the tea, asking Fu Tingyun if she was sleeping well, and whether she would give her some cooldown pills in the past few days.

Fu Tingyun didn't say a word.

Han Yan laughed aside.

Liu's mother just thought Fu Tingyun was angry with her and didn't care. She drank half a cup of tea and said goodbye.

The three of them relaxed.

Fu Tingyun hurriedly said, "Go and open the window, it's so hot!"

The green calyx leaves in response.

Without a trace of wind, the weather still makes people sweat.

Han Yan found a palm-leaf fan and sat on the little mattress at the head of the bed to fan her.

The two were about to speak when a burst of noise came from the southeast.

Noisy is allowed in the temple, not to mention that Biyun Temple is still a ancestral temple, and does not welcome pilgrims to the outside world.

Fu Tingyun first looked surprised, then as if she had thought of something, her expression changed slightly, and she listened carefully.

Han Yan could see clearly, handed the palm fan to Lu'e, and stood up and said, "Miss Jiu, I'll go and have a look!"

Fu Tingjun hesitated for a moment and nodded.

Han Yan quickly walked out of the inner room.

After about half a stick of incense, she broke back with sweat: "Miss Jiu, someone stole all the food in the kitchen. Not only that, she even moved the rice jars that were filled with rice."

Fu Tingyun didn't make a sound, and Bian Lu'e couldn't wait to say, "This is strange. Biyun'an only had two breakfasts and afternoon meals. A little nun was so hungry that she went to the kitchen to steal something to eat. Why did she even move the rice jar that was filled with rice? Can she still make a fire and cook?"

"That's it!" Han Yan also thought this was too strange and said, "Master Guozhi said that the rules in the temple were strict and such things had never happened. Those foods were left for us, but now things have been stolen, so dinner might be late."

"Didn't it mean that the rice jars have been moved? Is there still rice to the pot?"

"That's just for cooking in the kitchen, and there's also Yonekura!"

Seeing that the two of them were getting further and further, Fu Tingyun coughed gently and asked, "Have you found any clues?"

"No!" Han Yan shook his head and said, "But, Master Guozhi said that someone must have made trouble."

Fu Tingyun was slightly stunned: "How do you say this?"

"Master Guozhi said that if the little nun steals something, it's just a few steamed buns or wheat cakes. How could he steal everything in the kitchen? Then he can't finish it! There are also rice jars, which are fifty or sixty pounds, two or three people carrying them, so why are they missing?" Then he comforted her, "Master Guozhi said that there are only two or thirty people inside and outside the Biyun Temple, and only seven or eight acres of land in and out of all sizes. Even if you look for them inch by inch, you can find the stole people in four or five days, unless she can eat the rice jar too!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Chen's mother's voice rang outside the door: "Miss Jiu, I have something to report!"

Fu Tingyun glanced at Han Yan, and Han Yan understood and went to open the door.

"Miss Jiu!" Liu's mother saluted her with a heavy expression. "Master Guohui suspected that a stranger broke in the temple and asked us to be cautious. Don't leave the yard these days. She will send someone to bring a few dogs to help guard the door. Don't panic when Miss Jiu meets you later."

Fu Tingyun opened her eyes wide and looked stunned.

Han Yan glanced at her and knew that she could not speak, so he asked, "Mom Chen, what's going on?"

Mother Chen seemed a little upset and didn't care that Han Yan was very unruly interrupting, saying, "Qingyang, Gongchang, and a large number of victims were pouring into Shangzhou and Tongzhou. We have also seen them outside Huayin City. They rob food when they see them, so we should be careful." What else she wanted to say, Mother Fan hurried in, bowed to Fu Tingyun in a hurry, and said anxiously: "Mother Chen, Master Guohui, please come over and talk."

Mother Chen said "um" and told Fu Tingyun a few words like "Miss Jiu will read books in the house if she is fine", and hurriedly left with Mother Fan.

The room was dead silent.

Han Yan looked at Fu Tingyun's neck, and wanted to speak but stopped.

Lu'e said in a divine manner: "Miss Jiu, we won't have any trouble, right? How could it be a refugee? We are hundreds of miles away from Qingyang and Gongchang?"

Han Yan is careful and intelligent, and he is afraid that he will have a conclusion in his heart. It is better to make it honest and make it clear that there are still more places to use her in the future.

Fu Tingyun sighed in his heart and ordered Lu'e: "Come and see if you have anything to do, come back and report it to me."

Green Calyx jogged to Liu's mother's place with a "beauty".

Fu Tingyun pointed to the little whisper beside the bed and said, "Sit down!"

Han Yan half sat on the little moustache with some anxiety.

Fu Tingyun whispered to Han Yan about how he met a strange man in the backyard, how he was forced to take him to the kitchen, and how he almost strangled to death by him.

The more Han Yan heard, his expression became more frightened and his face became paler. As soon as she finished speaking, she immediately stood up: "Then let's go and tell Master Guohui quickly?"

"No!" Fu Tingyun immediately objected, "If Master Guohui asked, how would we explain going to the backyard?"

Han Yan stayed there.

"I'm full of trouble now, and it's too late to hide," her hoarse voice was like an old huqin, revealing a bit of sadness. "If Chen's mother knew that I had been kidnapped by a strange man, she still didn't know what would happen and what kind of trouble would arise!"

Han Yan also knew, but he was really scared. He murmured: "What if that person is really a refugee? Will he come again? The temple is full of women. What if he becomes malicious?"

If that person is really a refugee, Biyun Temple is located in a remote place with no male defense and a granary, it is really a fat piece that makes people salivate.

"Probably not!" Fu Tingjun said hesitantly, with a little uncertainty in his tone, "If it were a refugee, why was he the only one? Most of them were gangsters who wandered here. Such people, who are afraid of being arrested by the government office, generally would not stay too much in one place."

Han Yan thought about it and felt something was right. He hesitated and said, "Then do we still want to go to the backyard to explore the way?" The words were like giving up.

It's really raining.

Fu Tingyun felt that his head began to hurt again.

Lu'e ran in and said happily: "Miss Jiu, Miss Jiu. Mother Chen sent someone back to the city to report the message. She said that Biyun Temple was not safe, could she send a servant to the hospital guard?"

How can the servant guard stay overnight in the nunnery? Mom Chen asked me tactfully if I could go back home!

Fu Tingyun and Hanyan, you looked at me, and I looked at you, and they all showed a look of surprise.

This is a blessing in disguise.

Fu Tingyun felt that the pain on her neck became easier to bear.

The three of them waited happily.

The Fu family soon received an echo: "The Shaanxi Governor has sent Shaanxi Tongzhi Luo Pingyang to Qingyang, Gongchang to appease the victims. Huayin is only 200 miles away from Xi'an Prefecture, so how can there be refugees? You live there well. When the weather is cooler, you will naturally take you back home."

Fu Tingyun looked at Han Yan foolishly, and after a while he came to his senses, he felt a sense of intent climbing up his back like a little snake, making her shivering so cold that she could only shivered.

She waved her hand weakly, signaling Han Yan and Lue E not to disturb her, and sat alone from morning to dusk.

In the middle of the night, she asked Hanyan: "You are willing to help me go back and deliver the letter?"

Han Yan was silent for almost a cigarette before whispering: "I, I'm the one I listen to."

I still don't want to.

Yes, who is willing to risk his life!

But she has something more important than life.

The longer the time goes on, the more unfavorable it will be for her.

If Zuo Junjie succeeds, she will not be able to rest in peace even if she dies!

The next day, she was about to go to the backyard to explore the road.

The big yellow dogs that Master Guohui asked someone to lead were running back and forth in the yard without stopping for a moment. She didn't even have the chance to walk out of the yard, let alone go to the backyard.

She kept a few vegetarian buns for each meal, and wanted to get familiar with a few dogs first.

Mother Chen looked around and frowned several times. Once, she couldn't help but say, "Miss Jiu, some people outside can't even drink saliva!"

Fu Tingyun stared at her for a while, then turned around and entered the room.

After a while, Han Yan came out and yelled at the little nun who came to deliver the meal: "Miss Ninth in our family said that the vegetarian buns you made are delicious, so let's take thirty."

The little nun didn't know what happened and looked at Liu's mother.

Liu's mother was slightly angry, but she still said, "You just follow Miss Jiu's instructions."

During dinner, I really sent thirty vegetarian buns.

Han Yan was stunned when he looked at the half-basin of buns.

Fu Tingyun smiled: "Dig a bucket of well water and come to save it. I will give it to the little nuns who swept the floor tomorrow." His smile was extremely bitter under the dim light.

Han Yan silently dug the well water, silently lit Ai Xiang, and silently made the bed.

Fu Tingyun opened her eyes and looked at the bright moonlight sprinkled in through the battered Korean paper.

It's fifteen again, and she has been here for 62 days.
