Chapter 938 Come to the Rescue
"The lady is interested."
Grandma Sun took the gold bracelet, twitched the corner of her mouth, and went to add money for the sesame oil. As for who the eternal lamp was dedicated to, she didn't even need to ask.
Accompanied by Yingying and three other maids, Lianyi returned to the side room of the female family members. After Grandma Sun came back, she set up a table full of vegetarian food. This is also a major feature of Huguo Temple. After all, she donated so much With a lot of sesame oil money, one meal can still be afforded.
After the group had eaten, they went to bed early. They were really tired from hiking during the day, so they almost fell asleep as soon as they hit the pillow.
The same goes for Cherry, who was sleeping on the small couch in Lianyi's house. After a while, she started snoring.
"Master, I'm back."
Duoduo came to Lianyi at this time and said.
Lianyi opened her eyes, inserted Duoduo directly into her bun, and then sat up from the bed.
"How is the surrounding environment here?"
"There is a vein of spiritual stone in the mountain range where the Huguo Temple is located, but the grade is a bit low. It is of lower grade. It can barely support you in cultivating to the foundation."
Duoduo replied immediately.
"You can't be too greedy. This Huguo Temple is involved in the national destiny of the Great World. You can't do things too badly. I will stay here for three days at most. I can improve my cultivation to as high a level as I can to cope with the back house. It’s okay to fight.”
"Master, come with me. There is a place that is very suitable for cultivation."
Duoduo said immediately.
"Is it far?"
"On the linden tree in the backyard."
Ripple nodded with satisfaction, balled up her clothes and stuffed them into the bed, pretending that someone was sleeping, and then left her yard quietly.
Under Duoduo's guidance, she lightly jumped to the top of the Bodhi tree, then sat cross-legged on the top of the tree and began to absorb the spiritual energy scattered around.
The first half of the night was peaceful, and Lianyi's practice went very smoothly. Just when she was about to break through to the fourth level of Qi Refining, she heard the sound of the air breaking, and then the sound of a knife piercing into flesh.
"Master, look at the excitement!"
Duoduo reminded him immediately.
Lianyi immediately stopped her power, opened her eyes, and looked into the darkness. She had now entered the ranks of monks, so her facial features were much sharper than ordinary people, and she could immediately see what was happening outside the courtyard wall.
Three people were besieged. The news just now was that one of the three people was hacked to death, and the other person protected the remaining person and retreated towards the wall of Huguo Temple.
Obviously the person being protected is very important, so the two men will fight to the death to protect each other. However, there are too many men in black, ten of them, and they are all ruthless and deadly, and they are rushing to silence them. Go.
Lianyi didn't want to get involved in these things. After all, his mission was only to fulfill the original wish, and it was best not to change the fate of others because of her.
"Lianyi, you'd better save the man who is under siege. It will help you complete your mission."
Shi Jiu suddenly spoke up.
"What is his identity?"
"The eldest prince of the Great World."
"The eldest prince? He is not the prince yet?"
With just a name, Lianyi discovered the crux.
"He will soon be established as the crown prince, as long as he survives tonight's disaster."
"Understood, he is blocking other people's way."
The struggle for imperial power was more ferocious than they imagined.
"Ouch! Take action quickly, the last guard has been killed."
Shi Jiu immediately reminded.
Lianyi jumped up and landed lightly on the red wall of Huguo Temple from the top of the Bodhi tree. Then with a twist of his wrist, the life-threatening thread blocked the fatal knife for the eldest prince.
The soldiers who besieged the eldest prince were all frightened. The life-threatening thread was transparent and there was no trace in the dark night, making them think that the eldest prince was being protected by something unknown.
The eldest prince was hit by two swords. Although it was not fatal, he still bled a lot, so his evasive movements were a little slow. Seeing that he had no way out, the sword that was cut off stopped on top of his head and could not fall down no matter what. .
He immediately gritted his teeth and kicked out, kicking the dead soldier out. At the same time, he used the force of the kick to rub his body backwards, right against the wall of the Huguo Temple.
"Amitabha, in the pure land of Buddhism, how can you commit murder? Quickly put down the butcher knife, Buddha will save you, otherwise you will only fall into hell!"
Lianyi was wearing white clothes, standing on the wall, pretending to say to the ten dead soldiers.
Since she wants to save people, she should be famous. The eldest prince must keep such a great kindness in mind, but it is not convenient for her to show her face, so it is okay to reveal her voice and figure.
When the dead men found out that Lianyi was responsible, they were no longer afraid. After all, their mission was to kill the eldest prince. Although this woman had unintentionally disrupted their operation, she was now on their kill list.
The leader of the dead soldiers waved his hand, and the remaining people were divided into two. One part attacked Ripple, and the other part attacked the eldest prince.
Ripple had already heard that a monk on night duty was coming here, so she turned her wrist and divided the life-threatening thread into ten, instantly getting into the eyebrows of ten people. In just two breaths, Ripple reversed the situation. The individual fell to the ground silently.
Immediately, Lianyi wrapped the eldest prince with a life-threatening thread, pulled him from outside the wall into the courtyard, and placed him on the way to the night watch monk. Then she retired.
Before the eldest prince fainted, he only saw a graceful white figure. Knowing that he was safe, he fell into a coma completely.
Ripple went back to the wing where he was and took a nap before being woken up by Yingying. He had freshened up and was eating porridge when he heard the commotion outside the yard.
"Mother Sun, did you go to see what happened?"
"Yes, miss!"
Grandma Sun responded immediately.
In the second half of the night, she noticed that something seemed to be happening at Huguo Temple. Many people came, and these people did not lower their voices deliberately, so she woke up as soon as possible, and she has not stopped until now. She intuitively understood that something was going on not simple.
Lianyi finished the porridge calmly and waited for Grandma Sun's return.
After about a stick of incense, Grandma Sun came back in a hurry and saw Lianyi immediately:
"Miss, something happened at Huguo Temple last night."
"What's up?"
"There was a murder case. It seems that someone from the royal family was injured and was saved by Abbot Huiyuan. At the moment, someone is searching around the Huguo Temple."
Grandma Sun frowned.
"Ah? Well, let's go back to the Marquis Mansion early!"
Lianyi immediately pretended to be confused and said.
"Miss, we can't leave Huguo Temple until we have finished searching the mountain. What if we are regarded as the murderer?"
Grandma Sun also wants to go back, but she is also afraid of being implicated. After all, the royal family is involved. What if the murderer cannot be found and someone is chosen as a scapegoat? Although they are female relatives, what if!
"Then I will stay in the wing and not go out for the next two days. Please tell me to go down and tell everyone to keep a low profile."
Lianyi frowned slightly, pinched the handkerchief and said.
"Yes, miss!"
The eldest prince on the other side finally woke up. After seeing Huiyuan presiding over the meeting, his first words were:
"Master Huiyuan, are there women in your temple who practice with hair?"
