A tall and thin figure, covered with rays of light, approached Yuexi Zi Tan Qingxing.
Just by looking at the way Pingting walked and the outline of her body, Tan Qing recognized the person. It was Jing Xizi Tang Juan, who had long since returned to secular life and married.
Tan Qing said with confusion: "Sister Tang, Qing'er has been holding the knocker on the door for a long time, but no one paid attention... I wonder where Master and the others have gone, and whether there is any danger..."
Tang Juan's eyes darkened slightly: "Junior Sister Qin, Master and the others are fine. It's just the 'Shendu Martial Arts Conference' in two days, and I'm afraid that neither you nor I will be able to attend the ceremony! You also know how Senior Sister is doing now, as a human being
I am a woman and a mother. Not only did my aunt at home not allow me to put myself in danger again, but my master also gave me a good lecture.
Now the master is leading the Kun Dao in the temple to demonstrate outside the main gate of Cui Mansion in Luxinfang. He wants to make the treacherous hawk, dog and lackey of Yuanzai fearful, so that he can bring Junior Sister Cui back to the temple and go to the martial arts world in the capital of God.
The general assembly will observe the ceremony, and then take the opportunity to help Junior Sister Cui avoid the engagement."
Tan Qing seemed to understand something: "So, Senior Sister Tang has already met Master, but was driven back by her... It seems that Master did not inform Qing'er of such a thing, and obviously did not want Qing'er to do so.
Get involved.”
Tang Juan nodded slowly, but in turn said comfortingly: "Junior Sister Qin, you don't have to think too much. Master probably thought that your leg injury was not healed, so he didn't call you back to watch. And the 'Shendu Martial Arts Conference' was about to begin.
So, it is far away from Yique, and there are still several miles to walk after leaving the city. There are also beautiful mountains and rivers, and winding wild trails. If you go there on foot, you may aggravate your leg injury, and it will be more difficult to recover in the future."
Tan Qing was silent, obviously unwilling. But before meeting the master, these were just the two people's guesses.
At this moment, a messy and tired footsteps gradually sounded from the east.
The two girls went away after hearing the news, but saw behind the trees in the square, Linji Temple's master Yuan Yizi Tong Chunxi, prison guard Feng Yizi Xu Meixiang, and Gao Gongxue Yizi Ding Moniang, leading a group of female crowns, silently walking towards the gate.
Come.
Some of the female crowns had faces as golden as paper, some had blood stains on their faces, some were limping, supporting each other, presumably because their legs and feet were injured. There was even a slightly stronger figure with half a face of dust, and a heavy load on his back.
Female disciple, the corners of that female disciple's mouth were red, it was obvious that her internal organs were injured...
Xu Meixiang's eyes were gloomy. She saw Tang Juan's tall figure from a distance and immediately shouted angrily: "Jing Xizi! The audience wants you to go back quickly and don't stay in the city. Have you turned a deaf ear to it?!"
Tang Juan's face was full of worry, but she didn't dare to contradict her. She quickly raised her hands and saluted, "Uncle Master, forgive me! Jing Xizi was worried about Master and the sisters in the temple, so she decided to go back to the temple and wait for your return."
Qin Qing also bowed politely and said: "Yue Xizi heard that Cui Mansion was besieged and came to the temple to ask for a meeting with the master. Unexpectedly, he came a step too late and failed to go to Cui Mansion with his fellow apprentices to ask for people..."
Xu Meixiang raised her eyebrows and was about to scold her, but Tong Chunxi stopped her and said calmly: "Don't argue outside the temple and let the neighbors see the joke. If you have any doubts, let's talk about it after you go back to the temple!"
A few people had no choice but to agree.
Xu Meixiang then winked at the female disciple beside her. The female disciple hurriedly took a few steps, rushed to the gate first, took out the copper key and opened the fish lock.
Tang Juan and Qin Qing naturally stepped aside. When Tong Chunxi, Xu Meixiang, Ding Moniang and others stepped in, they followed closely and poured into the temple together with other teachers and sisters. In front of the Xuanyuan Hall, Tong Chunxi stopped and said,
He said to all the women: "Although there were injuries during our trip today, fortunately, none of my Linji Temple disciples are seriously injured. Xueyizi! Please wait for the disciples to prepare soup and medicine for the injured disciples to take internally and externally. Fengyi
Master is responsible for urging the disciples in the temple to go back to their rooms, eat some late meals, take medicine, and then rest early!"
After saying that, he turned to Tang Juan. Tan Qing, after a moment of silence, said, "You two, as teachers, come to the side hall to speak."
Evening drums were beating, and the setting sun still lingered on the wall. However, the window sash of the side hall was slightly smaller, so it became dim prematurely.
Although Tan Qing had not looked back for many days, he was familiar with every rafter, tile, plant, and tree in the view. He immediately found a fire folder and an oil lamp, and lit a lamp on a small table.
The orange light quickly filled the side hall, and the three masters and disciples had found their own round seats and sat down. Tong Chunxi straightened his figure, raised his eyes slightly and said, "Yue Xiko, has the wound on your calf healed?"
Hearing this, Qin Qing's heart warmed up, and she bowed slightly and said, "Thank you, Master, for your concern. It's no longer a serious problem!" Qing'er looked back today, because at noon, Senior Sister Cui was personally serving the maid Xiao Ping, and she took the risk and got out of the dog hole.
Looking for me to report..."
Tan Qing knew very well that Master cared deeply for the four disciples and treated them as his own. The death of Senior Sister Kiko Luo Rou in the previous period had a great impact on Master's Taoist heart. Therefore, he has only recently paid attention to the three of them.
, cherish them even more and more, and cannot tolerate any further harm to them.
That's why she didn't hide anything and told the story of Senior Sister Cui's message asking for help today. She also made it clear that her father, Qin Xiangchu, would also lend a helping hand.
After hearing this, Tang Juan was filled with righteous indignation: "This traitor Yuan Zai is really shameless! Master! I don't have to go to the 'Shendu Martial Arts Conference', but I can take this opportunity to kill Yuan Zai in Yique.
People from harm……"
"Don't be reckless!"
Tong Chunxi waved his robe sleeves and slapped it on the small case, which made the oil lamp tremble. He scolded, "Jing Xizi! How come the older you are, the more violent your temperament is? That Yuan Zai is the leader of the dynasty
Zaifu, the power is overwhelming, and there are countless good hands around him to protect him. How can you assassinate him with your little effort?!
Since he dared to lead everyone to the 'Shendu Martial Arts Tournament' to compete and win the sword, he must have made many preparations. How could he leave any opportunity for you? Not to mention that you went there to hit an egg with an egg and hit a stone with a fluke, then you succeeded.
The serious crime of killing an official is enough to implicate the entire Fang family. If you are determined to go, you must first think clearly about the consequences!"
Tang Juan could only feel her hands clenching tightly, her joints turning white, and her eyes turning red. She was filled with anger and had nowhere to vent her anger, so she had no choice but to slap the ground with a heavy palm, as if only the bone-piercing pain could relieve the depression she was feeling at this moment.
Tan Qing understood her temperament and immediately advised her from the side: "Senior Sister Tang, you have to take care of the family after all, so you have to look forward and backward in everything. Even if you want to assassinate the dog officer, you should hire some desperadoes with high martial arts skills to do it.
I will ask dad for any amount of money..."
"shut up!"
Tong Chunxi took pictures of the small case, and his face showed anger, "Yue Xizi! You want to fool around with her too, are you going to be angry to death as a teacher?! This Yuan Zai is corrupt and has done all kinds of evil things. I want to get rid of him."
No one knows how many people there are, but over the years, how many people have succeeded?
Today, the master led the female crowns from the temple to come out in full force. I wanted to take Hua Xizi back from Cui Mansion. But the eagle dog Yuan Zai arranged in front of Cui Mansion stopped us all, and we couldn't go any further. We fought hard.
During the fight, several female disciples in the temple were injured.
Although Weishi and others restrained a few leading men and ordered them to throw rat weapons, there were dozens of crossbowmen lying on the walls on both sides of the courtyard. If we forced our way in, we would be seriously injured.
It was thought that the teacher had to turn back to plan for the future."
Tang Juan finally couldn't help but asked: "Master! Then Junior Sister Cui will continue to be locked up in the house by those dogs like a prisoner until she finally submits?!"
Tong Chunxi became angry and raised his hand to take the picture again. Qin Qing hugged her and said, "Master, please don't get angry! Senior Sister Tang has always been outspoken, and she has a deep friendship with Senior Sister Cui. She also cares about her and leads to chaos... Qing'erdai
She will apologize to you!"
Tang Juan was also regretting that she had offended her master with her words. Seeing that Junior Sister Qin actually helped her to persuade her master, she couldn't help but secretly cast a grateful look. Then she lowered her head and admitted her mistake and said: "Master, master, it's the disciple who didn't hold back what he said."
...Please master punish me."
Tong Chunxi glared at Tang Juan for a long time, and then breathed out heavily: "That's it! I know that the four of you have learned arts in the temple together since you were young, and you are like sisters. Regarding Hua Xiko's matter, I am not afraid of shrinking, but I don't want to."
I wish there would be no more unnecessary sacrifices.
In two days' time will be the 'Shendu Martial Arts Conference'. At that time, not only Yuan Zai and his ilk, but also most of the attention in the city will turn to the foot of Yique Mountain. Those Yuan clan eagles and dogs besieging Cui Mansion will also use all their skills to rush there.
Help out there.
On the way back just now, I have discussed it with you and your uncles. Since we cannot take advantage of the 'Shendu Martial Arts Conference' to take Hua Xiko out, we will take advantage of the day when the defense is loose and let you and your uncles sneak into Cui Cui.
Mansion, rescue Hua Xizi."
Tang Juan and Tan Qing both had bright eyes.
Tang Juan said with shame on her face: "It turns out that the master had a plan a long time ago... It was the disciple who acted recklessly and wrongly blamed the master!" After saying that, he fell to his knees and bowed deeply.
But Tong Chunxi looked kind, waved his hand and said, "You don't have to worry about this anymore. Otherwise, you won't anger Yuan Zai and drag your aunt, husband, and children into it."
Then he looked at Qin Qingdao, "Yue Xizi, when you return home tomorrow, you can explain the master's arrangements to your father. On the day of the 'Shendu Martial Arts Conference', he only needs to bring a few Zoroastrian masters,
Just help me from the side, thank you very much!"
Hearing this, Qin Qing quickly responded.
That night, Tang Juan and Qin Qing returned to their old living room. They both missed Cui Wan and could not fall asleep. They simply talked all night long until the rooster crowed and dawn came.
The wind passes through thousands of houses, and the moon touches ten thousand households.
Outside a certain residence in Luoyang North City, camels honked and horses neighed. There were few people around, and a strong smell of manure spread everywhere. There were messy items everywhere, basking in the moonlight under the cool night.
However, there is a cave of its own in the mansion. Not only is the incense lingering, the cups and plates laid out, but also the wooden tables are polished and decorated with brocade patterns! If you look closely, you can see that there are actually a group of people from three religions and nine schools dressed in different clothes, feasting and having fun here.
At the banquet, there were also women with slender waists, twisting and turning wildly on the mattress, causing everyone to spit and scream. The person sitting at the top was an old woman with deep wrinkles, holding a cup in her hand.
A Huang Yujue, its tiny eyes shot out two rays of light:
"Brothers and sisters! Life is short, take pleasure in the moment! Why don't you follow my old lady and drink this cup to the full!"
