Attack Jade (攻玉) - Chapter 29
[Chapter 22 (1)]
As soon as Juesheng and Qizhi left, Lin Chengyou raised his arm to look at his injury.
This little injury on the arm is a trivial matter. Even if she falls into the water, it can be regarded as Teng Yuyi’s innocence. What he really cares about is her hidden weapons.
He had already inspected it before, and it was all extremely vicious and harmful tricks.
Take the hairpin that stuck him, not only sharp, but also with numerous thin hooks at the end.
Once pierced, it will be a hundred times more painful to store than an ordinary hidden weapon, not to mention that the poison is fed to the top, which can be said to be more damage. Whoever wants to be shot by this hidden weapon can only experience the feeling.
That’s all. When Teng Yuyi pulled out, he deliberately let those thin hooks stir a few more times in his wound, so the wound looked small on the surface, but the wound inside was not shallow. The blood couldn’t stop.
He frowned and tore off his inner sleeves and tied his arms. He thought it was specially made by the Teng Mansion, but he thought that Teng Shao, who has been guarding the outside all the year round, would have no spare time for people to customize such cunning and quirky women’s hidden weapons, even if they were to be used for her daughter’s self-defense Some are upright protective gear, so don’t think about it, this must be a good idea that Teng Yuyi came up with.
As early as when she coaxed Juesheng to steal itch for her, he guessed that she was not at ease, and her actions tonight further confirmed his guess.
Just imagine how skillful and decisive she was when she released her hidden weapons before she fell unconscious. It can be seen that she is used to doing it, and maybe she plans to use these hidden weapons to harm people at all times.
If she is from the rivers and lakes, he will not find it strange. After all, she is often in dangerous situations, and it is inevitable that she will take some self-protection actions when she is in distress, but she is a noble lady…
The guards in the house are strictly guarded, and there are strong servants to protect them when they go out. When playing in Yangzhou or Chang’an, the objects of communication are nothing more than women from aristocratic families. In such a leisurely environment, even if he wants to break his head, he can’t think of why Teng Yuyi should carry such a hidden weapon with him, and if he doesn’t do it, he is already , a shot is still so vicious.
I heard that she was just getting married, and at such a young age, she had already started to work hard to create tricky hidden weapons that would hurt people.
After pondering for a moment, he raised his eyes and looked at the quiet door in front of him. Previously, when she detoxified him with a smile on her face, her subordinates deliberately played tricks, and they did not reveal any traces on the key aspects, so that others could not notice.
Hypocrisy and vicious, this Teng Yuyi is all about it.
Don’t be in a hurry, what exactly is she going to do to tickle the itch, and there is no trace of it so far.
He smiled meaningfully, glanced at He Mingsheng and Calyx Ji beside him, both of them were dumbfounded, deliberately said a few words to them, and it took a long while to respond, so good, don’t worry about their bad things.
When dealing with wicked people, there should be a way to deal with wicked people. No matter what kind of poison was in that Ge Jin, after hearing what he said, Teng Yuyi couldn’t help but be frightened.
The best thing is that the poison in Ge Jin is really poisonous. After Teng Yuyi was frightened, he could be honest for a few days and hurt a few people less.
Lin Chengyou thought like this, the door was stuck from the outside, and he was sure that he couldn’t open it from the inside, so he walked down the steps unhurriedly.
He checked around the courtyard, and the Caifeng Building was concave and convex, like a shallow well. If there were golden toads buried around it, it would naturally be a treasure basin.
This place is extremely yin and extremely fertile, and it is not suitable for suppressing evil things. It is unbelievable why it was chosen in such a place back then, and it seems to be extremely effective. One town lasts for hundreds of years.
I don’t know why the formation suddenly failed, and it just smashed the stone tablet underground… He squatted down to look carefully, and suddenly heard Teng Yuyi screaming in the room, there was a hint of ridicule in his eyes, and he waited for a while on purpose. , then clapped his hands and got up.
When he got to the door, he buttoned the door: “Young Master Wang?” He
didn’t hear Teng Yuyi’s response, could he faint from fright? Lin Chengyou didn’t let the smile on his face, and pretended to ask with concern, “Young Master Wang, are you alright?”
Still no response, Lin Chengyou estimated that he was almost done, raised his hand and opened the door, expecting to see Teng Yuyi shivering while hugging the legs of the table, or she was so frightened that her face was disheveled, but who knew that she would be standing beside the desk.
The smile in his eyes condensed, Teng Yuyi picked up the pen stand beside his feet, and said with a smile, “I’m sorry, this thing fell to the ground just now, and it shocked me.”
Lin Chengyou glanced at the bed, and Ge Jin was still neatly dressed. Sleepy, Teng Yuyi is lucky, and the poison in Ge Jin is not.
Teng Yuyi walked over to Lin Chengyou as if nothing had happened: “Gejin does have traces on her heart, golden, and the shape is probably like this. I drew it. There is no golden sand in the room, so I can only use ink instead.
” After being frightened, Lin Chengyou quietly watched her approach, smiled suddenly, took the paper she handed over, and said, “You have Mr. Lao.”
Teng Yuyi smiled and said, “It’s just a hands-on effort.”
She snorted coldly, Lin Chengyou was safe. What are her thoughts? She is like a mirror in her heart. In the past, when she was bullied like this, she would never let it go. She just hated that she couldn’t act rashly now.
Lin Chengyou is cunning and wise, and his temperament is domineering. The matter of itching bugs and hidden weapons has made him suspicious, and he will never get the upper hand if he entangles with him.
Fortunately, the night is coming to an end. As long as Huoqiu settles down, she can leave immediately, leave the building, and have nothing to do with Lin Chengyou.
Lin Chengyou shook the paper, and frowned when he saw the mark drawn by Teng Yuyi, it wasn’t poisonous poison or fire poison, it was hyena poison.
It’s really troublesome, this is the most difficult situation, to save Ge Jin’s life, he can only –
he took off the sachet from his waist and took out the pills, when he heard the sound of footsteps coming from outside the door, Jue Sheng. He Qizhi ran over with a burden each in his arms.
The two caught a glimpse of Teng Yuyi in the room, and the two hanging hearts fell to the ground. Fortunately, Mrs. Teng was not frightened.
Lin Chengyou put all the pills in the palm of his hand, and rushed to Calyx Ji who was outside the door and said, “Aunt Calyx, come in, and quickly give this medicine to Ge Jin.”
Jue Sheng and Qi Zhi saw the pill and said in shock, “Senior brother. , this won’t work.”
Lin Chengyou looked at them: “What doesn’t work?”
“This is Yan Xidan.” Jue Sheng Qizhi rushed into the room and said in a low voice, “Don’t forget that you were in Ziyun Tower last time, senior brother, your six yuan. The pills have been divided, the master has not returned to Chang’an, and the medicinal materials in Guanli are not enough, if even Yanxi Pill is used by others, in case you-”
“I don’t want to use it for others, but this woman The mane is poison, do you have any other way?” The
two’s expressions changed: “The poison of mane?” “She is already poisoned, and if
she drags it on, she will die from prejudice.”
Not to mention snatching the pill from Lin Chengyou’s hand, he ran to the bed to give Ge Jin the medicine.
Teng Yuyi watched from the side, secretly thinking that Lin Chengyou had a secret illness. The last time it was Liuyuan Dan, this time it was called Yan Xidan. I don’t know if Daoist Qingxuzi had instructed him. Lin Chengyou always seemed to carry pills with him, and he did so. Not for Shirenbude, just for his own use.
She couldn’t help looking at Lin Chengyou curiously, this son was alive and well, it really didn’t look like he was sick.
Suddenly, I remembered the big dream the day before yesterday. In the dream, her soul returned to her father’s temple three years after her death. She encountered a strange scene in the temple. The palace people heard that Lin Chengyou was assassinated in Beirong, and suddenly Panicked hands and feet.
This dream is too strange, not to mention whether it is true or not, how could she dream of Lin Chengyou?
Qizhi and Juesheng fed medicine over there, Ge Jin’s complexion improved, He Mingsheng and Caly Ji entered the house, trembling to check Ge Jin’s condition.
Lin Chengyou looked at the scar on Ge Jin’s cheek, shook his head and sighed: “This injury was caused by a ghost, and it hurts the muscles. It is estimated that there is no hope of recovery.”
When Jue Sheng and Qi Zhi heard this, they looked at each other in confusion. Madam Ge Jin’s injury showed no trace of ghosts, and it was clearly caused by someone.
The senior brother must have seen better than them, why he said such a thing openly.
Teng Yuyi was idle and had nothing to do, so he also looked closer. The sky was already bright, and Ge Jin’s face was fully visible in the morning light. There were four scratches on the left cheek, the blood scabs were not covered, and there were faint snail rolls. dead meat.
“It’s pitiful.” Calyx Ji sighed and helped Ge Jin tuck the quilt tightly.
He Mingsheng’s face was full of regret: “In order to buy the Ge Jin, the villain spent more than ten thousand gold, and every day when the Bodhisattva made offerings, Sheng was afraid that she would not go with her wishes. Seeing that he was about to emerge in Pingkangfang, he was ruined by the ghost. The villain’s hard work, isn’t it all in vain?”
Juesheng and Qizhi only thought of what happened to He Mingsheng as Ge Jin, and they couldn’t help but pouted.
At this moment, a temple visitor came running outside the door: “Master, there are many Marquis Wu and bad people outside.” The people in the
room were startled, but Lin Chengyou said, ”
It’s just right.” Halfway behind the crowd, Huoqiu came towards him and said in a low voice, “Miss, everything is arranged, let’s go.”
When I reached the front building, I saw that the central hall was full of people, and the lizheng in Pingkangfang was also At that time, the officials looked up, and had no time to wonder why Lin Chengyou was wearing wet clothes, hurriedly straightened his clothes, and strode up to greet him.
Teng Yuyi took the opportunity to call Calyx Ji aside, took out an orb and threw it to Calyx Ji: “You will be rewarded. I’ll wrap up Juanerli and Baozhu. You are not allowed to beat them or ask them to accompany others for half a year. Guest.”
Calyx Ji’s eyelids flickered, and she wanted to wrap Erli and Baozhu for half a year with just one orb, which was undoubtedly bullying, she was extremely reluctant to agree, but after getting along this night, she had already guessed that in front of her. This little lady has a lot of background. If nothing else, just look at the guard next to her.
If you don’t agree, you might get yourself into trouble. It’s worth it, Juanerli and Baozhu are still young, and it is indeed difficult to meet those difficult guests on weekdays. It would be good for them to hone their skills quietly in the past six months, so they happily stuffed the orb into their chest: “The slave family Understood, from today onwards, Juan Erli and Baozhu will only serve Wang Gongzi alone.”
Lin Chengyou changed into clean clothes, and then asked people to buy Hu cakes and houto for the two junior brothers to eat.
Jue Sheng and Qi Zhi drank the hot Houto soup while listening to Lin Chengyou talking to the officials around them.
Lin Chengyou allowed the medical worker to bandage his wound again, and said while drinking tea: “There were two big monsters under the formation, and they broke out last night. One is a bird monster, and I haven’t checked the details for the time being.”
The officials looked different: “His Royal Highness, Chang’an has not seen any evil spirits for many years, but it has only been a few months, and several major incidents have already happened. The last time was a tree monster who only took the body of a beauty, this time the evil spirit It’s actually related to a brothel.”
I dare not say the rest, it is obviously a prosperous age of Kangping, why are there so many monsters in the world.
Lin Chengyou couldn’t guess what they were thinking, and snorted: “I will find out the origin of these monsters soon. The two monsters broke out last night and disappeared, but they may come out again at any time to harm others. The people are injured, from now on, I will invite the monks and Taoists from each temple to patrol the streets every day, and say hello to you in advance, so that you can know what to do.”
The officials only obeyed orders.
“In addition to cooperating with these monks on patrol, you also need to send letters to each household. If there is no urgent matter at night, people should not go out without authorization.
”
He got up and quietly pushed the soup bowl in front of Lin Chengyou.
Jue Sheng was sweating profusely from eating, and at this time he raised his head dully: “Senior brother, you are only arranging for us to eat, but you are unwilling to eat it yourself, this soup will be cold if you don’t drink it.
” Don’t tell me, I’m really hungry.”
However, the officials around him continued to ask him for instructions, and the meal was extremely unpleasant.
Jue Sheng and Qi Zhi finished their breakfast and sighed while holding their cheeks. Poor senior, fortunately they were by his side, otherwise who would take care of the senior’s diet and daily life.
His Royal Highness Prince Cheng and his concubine left Chang’an for more than half a year, and they took the second son with them before leaving, saying that the brothers had traveled around with them when they were young, and this time it was the turn of the second son, Ah Shuang.
It was also said that last year, Princess Azhi delayed her studies because she traveled to the south of the Yangtze River. This year, she needed to stay in Chang’an and study hard. Princess Changyi just happened to be reluctant to hold Princess Azhi, and she went to live in the palace.
That’s all, even Master left Chang’an under the banner of Yunyou.
As a result, there were only two of them left beside the senior brothers.
In the past, this was not a thing. Master often said that senior brothers were naughty, and could not be separated from the elders’ discipline, but this time Master and Cheng Wang and his wife left Chang’an one after another. This is really unintelligible, could it be that it is intentional to let senior brothers experience it?
The two of them exchanged one hand and continued to hold their round cheeks and sighed. Although there are still saints and queens in Chang’an City, the saints and queens have always regarded their senior brothers as their own sons, but I heard that the saints have a generous temperament. The queen is easy-going, and the two live in the palace. It is more than enough to discipline the master of Azhi, but it is inevitable that the elder brother will be out of reach.
She was sighing and sighing when Calyx Ji came over with Juanerli. Calyx
Ji bowed at Lin Chengyou and said with a smile: “Prince, we are still a little stunned, please help Shizi to see if she still has a demon poison in her body.”
She was dumbfounded, her complexion was white and greasy like jade, and after she became ill, she became more and more delicate like pear flowers and rain.
Lin Chengyou turned to look at the two of them: “Didn’t you already use Qingxin Pill?”
Juesheng and Qizhi were also puzzled that Juanerli was able to walk and speak, except that she was mentally unwell, and could not see anything wrong. She got up and looked at it.
Juan Erli said embarrassedly, “I’m sorry to bother the two priests, but the slave family is actually not feeling sick…”
Calyx Ji kept pushing Juanerli in front of Lin Chengyou: “The slave family thinks that they are also poisoned by demons. , Wang Gongzi has already returned to normal, but Juan Erli has been weak and dizzy, and the slave family is afraid of an accident, so I want to ask the prince to show her a good look.”
Lin Chengyou snorted: “So that’s what happened, you must abandon the sage and abandon your wisdom. , you will take a good look at Juanerli, as for Aunt Calyx, I seem to be
a little bit wrong–” Calyx Ji’s face turned pale, “Nujia?”
“Qingxin Pills also take a few pills for Aunt Calyx.”
Juesheng and Qizhi scratched their heads in embarrassment. Senior brother must have thought that Aunt Calyx was annoying. Qingxin pills can only be taken by people who have been poisoned by demons. Normal people will have diarrhea for a few days after eating them.
“Little Daoist, give the slave family a few more pills.” After hearing Lin Chengyou’s words, Calyx Ji was already disturbed.
Qizhi’s kindness only gave Qiji one grain, but Qiji reached out and snatched several grains.
The two were busy trying to take it back, but they were stopped by Lin Chengyou: “Hey, isn’t it just a few Qingxin pills, if Aunt Calyx wants to give it to her, how can you be so stingy.
” With his original intention, he smiled and pulled Juanerli closer, and said cautiously, “Why don’t the prince show him personally, she just said that there is an illusion in front of her—”
Lin Chengyou snorted, just as he was about to speak, but it seemed As if he remembered something, he looked up at Juan Erli.
Calyx Ji’s heart suddenly ignited hope, her brows and eyes fluttered: “Prince son, she is Juan Erli…”
Lin Chengyou’s gaze passed the two of them and went straight to the door.
There was a golden shadow in front of the door, and in the middle stood a slender Hu man, it was Teng Yuyi.
“Illusion…” Lin Chengyou looked at Teng Yuyi thoughtfully, and suddenly said to Absolute Sage and Abandoned Wisdom, “Miss Gejin should have woken up, you go to her room to confirm one thing first.”
***
Teng Yuyi put down the curtain of the car , through the morning light to observe the jade sword in the palm of the hand, see its clear inside and outside, feel refreshed.
After tossing for a whole night, she finally got rid of the curse. This sword has great magical powers. With it protecting her body, she will no longer have those terrifying and lengthy nightmares. In the future, she will encounter aliens who killed their masters and servants in the past life. A weapon that can break sorcery.
“Go back to the Du residence.” She happily instructed Huoqiu.
But halfway through the road, the cart suddenly stopped, and Huo Qiu said, “Young Master, the Supreme Daoist of Qingyun Temple is here.
” A small carriage, Jue Sheng jumped out of the car and ran to her car.
“Young Master Teng, take a step to talk.” “Get in
the car. ” Juesheng and
Teng Yuyi have been together a few times, and they have already gotten to know each other, and they don’t pay attention to the red tape, so they got into the driveway: “Abandoned wisdom, let me bring a talisman to Mrs. Teng. ”
Fu?”
Juesheng took out a picture from his sleeve and said, “Ms. Ge Jin has already woken up, senior brother Fang Cai asked her to identify the picture. Ge Jin said that she had seen the well on it, so the senior brother guessed. That’s right, that monster is using the memories of living people to create an illusion.”
Teng Yuyi took it and saw that it was the abandoned garden she had drawn.
“What Qizhi saw was the memory of Juan Erli when he was a child, and what you saw, Mr. Teng, was the memory of Ge Jin. When you saw the illusion on the second floor, Ge Jin was still in his room, so it was weird. It’s not to kidnap people at will, but to set a target early, we guess these illusions are the so-called premonitions, first set illusions and then harm people.”
Teng Yuyi understood: “Are you worried that Yaoyi will come to me next?”
Juesheng nodded: “That’s right, that Yaoyi once turned into a hairpin and Hua Langjun to poison you, and later turned into a gejin to lure you out of the window. Although it has sneaked away now, senior brother always feels that it is a monster. Yi was very interested in you, and Qizhi was very worried when he heard it, so he specially asked me to bring the talismans.”
Then he took out a bunch of talismans from his arms: “After Mrs. Teng goes back, she sticks these talismans on the doors and windows, and the monster won’t Dare to trespass.”
Speaking of this, Juesheng smiled: “Actually, Madam Teng has an emerald sword to protect her body, and Yaoyi dare not come to you easily, but it will not hurt to have more talismans on her body.
Teng Yuyi accepted . Passing the talisman paper: “Chizhi’s hand is injured and still…”
Juesheng waved his hand: “You know, Qizhi is a mother-in-law, he said that he is not afraid of ten thousand, but only in case, so he must draw more talismans. To Mrs. Teng. However, I was also worried about his injured hand, so I only let him draw a few pictures, and I drew the rest. Teng Yuyi looked at Juesheng quietly ,
Juesheng saw that she suddenly stopped talking, and was a little overwhelmed: “Miss Teng…”
Teng Yuyi turned around and took two boxes of snacks from several cases: “This is the Yulu that my aunt made yesterday. Tuan, if you like it or not, the other box is for Qizhi Daoist, you help me bring it to him. Jue Sheng ‘s
eyes couldn’t help but swirl on the lacquer box: “…Senior Brother Fang Cai gave us a meal. ”
What’s the use of a meal in the morning? The head here is Lingsha, plain stuffed. Daoist can rest assured to eat.” “Teng Yuyi opened the lid of the box, and the delicate fragrance overflowed, “Is it fragrant? ”
“Scent. Juesheng swallowed.
Teng Yuyi put two boxes of jade dew balls into Juesheng’s arms without saying a word: “If you like it, I will send some to Qingyun Temple another day, except for the Lingsha scorpion made by my aunt.” , our Teng Mansion’s cook is also very good at making dim sum,”
Jue Sheng blushed with joy: “Then thank Madam Teng, oh yes, thank Madam Du for me and Qizhi. ”
Teng Yuyi suddenly remembered something: “Is the injury on Ge Jin’s face really the work of the ‘evil ghost’? ”
Juesheng shook his head and said: “I don’t think Qizhi and I are different, but Senior Brother claimed that he was murdered by a ghost, I guess he should have his own considerations when he said that. Madam Teng, don’t you think that this Caifenglou is very revealing. Weird? The former owner and wife of the Caibohang store died strangely, the monsters suppressed in the backyard were strange, and Ge Jin was injured strangely. All kinds of strange things are unbelievable. The senior brother has already reported to the boss of Dali Temple, and it is estimated that he should check it carefully.”
“Your senior brother works in Dali Temple?”
Jue Sheng was surprised: “Miss Teng doesn’t know?”
Teng Yuyi smiled, she must know.
Jue Sheng smiled and said: “Senior brother ran to attend the Mingjing department last year, and the Cheng Wang couple thought that brother was playing a joke, but he didn’t expect him to be the first in the Mingjing department, and then passed the selection test of the Ministry of Personnel. I went to work in Dali Temple, and now my brother is the lowest grade judge in Dali Temple (Note 1), and he often investigates cases in the workshops.”
Teng Yuyi nodded, Dali judges are not high-ranking officials, but this position requires familiarity with the code of law and case deliberation. Prison, after the expiration of the term, can often be directly promoted to the censor, because the position is small and big, and it has always been an important position that the sons of princes are keen to compete for.
Juesheng got up and said, “Miss Teng, I need to get to Dongmingguan as soon as possible, so I will say goodbye.”
Then he jumped out of the carriage, and suddenly put his head in again: “I almost forgot the most important thing, Senior Brother. Let me tell Mrs. Teng: I have nothing to do recently.”
Teng Yuyi frowned secretly when she heard Lin Chengyou’s name, but said with a smile, “I see.”
After Juesheng left, Huoqiu drove the car again, seeing that he was about to arrive at the Du residence. , a group of chariots and horses approached.
Huoqiu Le stopped on the reins and said, “It’s Uncle Cheng.”
Uncle Cheng galloped to the front, got off his horse and said, “Miss, this old slave went back to the house this morning. I heard that Miss was trapped in a brothel in Pingkangfang for no reason last night. What happened?”
Teng Yuyi lifted the curtain of the car, seeing that Cheng Bo was sweating profusely, and said hurriedly: “I’m fine, I’ll tell you in detail when I go back to the mansion, is there any news from the township’s mansion? ”
Cheng Bo is the most capable general under Grandpa’s subordinates. The information he inquired about never goes wrong.
“There has been a lot of rumors in Chang’an, and it is rumored that the happy event between the lady and General Duan is coming.” Cheng Bo said with a sullen face, “According to the old slave, the government of Zhenguo was worried about the news of that night, and deliberately released it everywhere. Rumor, if you can get married ahead of time, the matter of General Duan and Dong Erniang will naturally be ignored. I heard that when the old lady of the Duan residence has passed her birthday, the grandfather will come to the door to discuss the marriage with the old man.”
Teng Yuyi sneered, It seemed that the Duan family deliberately wanted to harm Duan Ningyuan for her future.
She thought about it. The last time at the door of Ziyun Tower, Duan Wenyin mentioned the old lady’s birthday. After she came back, things happened one after another, and she almost forgot about it.
“Today’s Madam Duan’s birthday, how did I do the thing I explained?”
Cheng Bo took out a package from his arms: “Don’t worry, this old slave has already arranged it properly.”
Teng Yuyi took the package of itch bugs with a smile, In addition, he handed a package of things hidden in the car to Cheng Bo: “This package contains medicinal powder. Take it to the prison and use it for Dong Erniang. Remember not to leave any traces, especially not to ask Duan Ningyuan to notice.”
Cheng Bo hesitated. Poisoned, why detoxify? But thinking that Miss Lai had her reasons, she took over the package of medicinal powder.
“Okay.” Uncle Cheng took out a post, “This is a post sent by Duan Mansion a few days ago. Tonight, in addition to inviting the lady, I also invited Master Du’s family. The old slave has prepared a birthday gift for Mrs. Duan.
Teng Yuyi smiled and nodded: “Tonight I have to pay a good birthday to the old lady of the Duan family. Go to my aunt’s house first. In
a blink of an eye, he arrived at the door of Du’s house, Huoqiu got out of the car and knocked on the door. Cangtou Nu opened the door and saw Teng Yuyi, and said happily, “My lady came so early, did you go home and rest last night?”
Teng Yuyi nodded and walked in quickly. It seemed that her uncle and aunt had made arrangements ahead of time. Even the old servants of the Du residence kept what happened last night in the dark. She
pretended to tell Cheng Bo: “Bring in what I brought from home.” ”
Cheng Bo and Huo Qiu replied, “Yes.”
Du Shaotang was pacing anxiously back and forth in the central hall. When he looked up and saw Teng Yuyi, he ran over and whispered, “Cousin Yu, you’re finally back, my mother and father are going crazy.”
Teng Yuyi secretly hated, if Lin Chengyou didn’t let her go back to the mansion, why would she worry her uncle and aunt all night.
Du Shaotang asked repeatedly: “Cousin Yu, did you really go to Caifeng Tower last night? When Prince Cheng sent a letter to someone, we only thought that person was lying, but that person was a follower of Prince Cheng’s mansion, so no one could believe it. Prince Cheng said that you were drinking and having fun in Caifeng Building. What happened?”
“I can’t understand a few sentences, where are my uncle and aunt now?”
“In my sister’s room, my mother asked me to wait outside and said I’ll take you to see them when I see you.” The
two rushed to the backyard, Du Yuzhi and Mrs. Du were in a hurry in the room, Du Tinglan was standing under the porch, looking out with a worried expression.
Du Shaotang ran over first: “Cousin Yu is here.”
Du Tinglan ran down the steps in three steps, and Mrs. Du heard the sound and greeted her: “It’s good to come.”
Several people entered the room together, and Du Shaotang, who was in the room, caught sight of Teng Yuyi. The big beard on his face was startled, and he looked up: “Why are you pretending to be a man? What kind of formality is this!”
Mrs. Du was also very anxious: “You child… what happened last night.”
Teng Yuyi took it. I drank the sugarcane pulp my cousin personally handed over and sighed: “Don’t worry, uncle and aunt, things happened suddenly last night.”
Then he took out the jade sword: “I got this sword by accident on my way to Chang’an, I heard that it is Taoism is a treasure, it can exorcise evil spirits. In the past six months, I have often encountered evil spirits, and I can’t sleep well at night. Since I got this sword, all the evil spirits around me have disappeared. .”
Mrs. Du nodded in surprise: “I wanted to ask you about the origin of this sword for a long time, but I have been busy these days, so I forgot to ask.”
Teng Yuyi said: “I don’t know why that day, the sword suddenly lost its spiritual power. I went to Dongming Temple to inquire. The Taoist priest in the temple said that only the Taoist priest from Qingyun Temple can help this sword restore its spiritual power…” After the matter is said, of course, in order not to worry my uncle and aunt, there must be some additions to the words.
“If my uncle doesn’t believe it, go to Pingkangfang and find out that Prince Cheng’s son should still be in Caifeng Building, and those officials probably haven’t left.”
Du Yuzhi frequently stroked his beard: “Since this is the case, you should always call your uncle and aunt before you leave. Say hello.”
Teng Yuyi said confidently, “I haven’t been back to Chang’an for a long time, and I really wanted to go out for a walk. I thought I would go back when I went, but I never thought of encountering such a thing.”
Du Shaotang timidly interjected: “Grandpa, this is the case . You can’t blame Cousin Yu, Grandpa also knows that if he wants to do something, he knows what he wants to do.”
Du Tinglan saw her father’s expression softened, and curiously picked up the jade sword: “How is it, have you unlocked the curse? ”
It’s solved.” Teng Yuyi
stroked Cuibi’s sword, “If I encounter evil spirits another day, I will chop a monster in front of my cousin and show it to my cousin.” Du Tinglan was taken aback: “It’s not necessary, I didn’t wait for you to chop it up .” When the monsters were placed, my sister was scared and fainted. Besides, in the future, there will be no more evil spirits.”
Du Shaotang squeezed over and asked, “Cousin Yu, there really are monsters in Caifenglou? Did you see them at the time, what did the monsters look like? ?”
Du Yu knew that he was arrogant and still refused to talk, just watching the lively talk of his wife and widow, he couldn’t help but also walked over, took Du Tinglan’s hand, and looked at the jade sword curiously.
Mrs. Du took the opportunity to say to Teng Yuyi, “You’ve been busy all night, and you still have a beard stuck on your face. Go take a shower, change your clothes, and have a good night’s sleep after breakfast.”
When Teng Yuyi came out of the shower, Du Yuzhi and his son had already returned to the front. In the courtyard, Mrs. Du was busy arranging lunch, and only Du Tinglan was waiting for her in the house.
Du Tinglan said softly: “Don’t look at Grandpa’s fierce and swearing scolding. He went out to find you several times last night. After returning to the house, he persuaded Grandma to rest. He waited for news outside, and then he let go after hearing that you were all right. Heart.”
Teng Yuyi sighed: “Actually, how can I feel at ease? I finally got out of
Caifenglou in the morning, and rushed home without stopping.” Du Tinglan pushed Teng Yuyi in distress: “You can’t open your eyes, go to bed quickly, By the way, I heard that Mrs. Duan’s birthday, the Duke of Zhenguo sent us a message.”
Teng Yuyi looked at Du Tinglan: “Do you know what
happened to my sister?” “Auntie told me about that night, Wan Wan Unexpectedly, this person with the surname Duan is so despicable.”
Teng Yuyi slowly climbed into bed, her cousin was kind and gentle, and she never blushes with anyone in the past, but the first time she scolded someone sharply, it was Duan Ningyuan.
“No one can let you suffer such grievances.” Du Tinglan covered Teng Yuyi’s quilt, “It’s a good thing for such a hypocrite to see his true colors early, this marriage is bound to be revoked, but fortunately, my uncle will be returning to Chang’an in the next two days. The sooner the matter is resolved, the better. Tonight, the old lady Duan’s birthday banquet, A-Niang and I will accompany you.” After
speaking, she pulled Teng Yuyi’s hair together, stood up and said, “If you have anything to say, wait until you wake up, A-jie will go out first. , you have a good rest.”
Teng Yuyi put one arm under her cheek and watched her cousin walking around the room.
Du Tinglan put down the curtains in front of the bed and walked quietly to the window, fearing that the maid and mother-in-law in the yard would make a noise, she closed the drawer before leaving.
The room was quiet and dim, Teng Yuyi felt sleepy, and just closed his eyes, a small voice suddenly came from his ear: “Hello.”
Teng Yuyi jumped up abruptly, opened the curtain and looked around, there was no half in the room. personal shadow.
The voice came from behind again: “Don’t look for it, I’m here.”
Teng Yuyi lost his mind and fell off the bed. In shock, he turned his head and saw a little old man about two inches tall sitting on the bed.
This old man has a bright head and a pale face. He is dressed in gray linen and short brown. Although he is old, his cheeks are rosy and shiny. There are three strands of silver-white beard hanging on his chin. His expression was also slightly mean.
The old man leaned against the pillow with Erlang’s legs crossed, and there was a word “lazy” all over his body.
Teng Yuyi was quite surprised. She had never seen a little man the size of a slap, where did it come from, and there were so many talismans from the Holy Sage hidden in her clothes, which were useless.
Thousands of thoughts flashed through her mind, and she got up and ran to the door. The jade sword was hidden under her pillow, and she knew it should be held in her arms.
“Are you looking for it?” The little old man jumped up, pulled open the pillow, and dragged the jade sword out from under the pillow.
Teng Yuyi suddenly felt a little desperate, the little old man was not afraid of this sword.
“Who are you? What are you doing here?” She tried to calm herself down, “I advise you not to use this sword, it can even deal with monsters that have been practicing for hundreds of years. A little thing like you may be attacked at any time. It’s crushed to ashes.” The
little old man smiled on his hips: “Baby girl, I like how you talk nonsense with your eyes open, you are so smart, can’t you guess who I am?”
“I can’t guess, and I don’t want to guess. “Teng Yuyi quickly retreated to the door, “The sun is shining outside, if you’re not afraid of losing your mind, just chase it out.” As he turned
around to open the door, the little old man stomped his feet and said, “Stupid, this old man has this sword. Artifact!”
Artifact? Teng Yuyi was dubious. When he rejected the Jade Sword that Jue Sheng and Qi Zhi wanted to deceive her last time, he told her a lot about the spirits. .
“Don’t you believe it?” The little old man rolled up his sleeves and jumped on the sword, muttering words, and soon disappeared into the sword.
After a while, the body of the sword was reddish, and the little old man came out again.
Teng Yuyi was startled, if the old man was an evil thing, how could it be integrated with Taoist instruments?
The old man patted the jade sword: “This time you should believe it.”
Teng Yuyi stopped in doubt: “Are you really an artifact?”
“I am really! I am really!” Jie, I didn’t condescend to come out to see you.”
Teng Yuyi opened her mouth, because she was too surprised, she didn’t know whether to leave or stay.
The old man snorted: “Why don’t you speak, don’t you have anything to ask?”
Teng Yuyi said, “I, you—”
She calmed down and asked: “This… What do you mean?”
“What old uncle Sword Immortal?” The little old man sat down with his legs crossed, “If the old man has a name, you can call me Xiaoya.”
“Xiaoya?” Teng Yuyi showed a strange expression. look.
The little old man was unhappy: “Have you never heard of ‘My life has a limit, but my knowledge has no limit’? I don’t dare to call it ‘Wu Ya’, it’s not an exaggeration to say ‘Xiao Ya’. But the name given by my first master, Venerable Qing Lian, since you and I are meeting for the first time, we should call each other by big names.”
Teng Yuyi frowned and raised his hand: “Wait a minute, I have to take care of it, this sword is from me who came to Chang’an. I got it by accident on the way, and I have been with me for many days, why have I never seen you show up?”
Xiaoya stroked his beard and said, “Even though I fell into your hands, I am still trapped in the body of the sword, can I use it for you? It also depends on your own good fortune. A few days ago, you met the little devil surnamed Lin, and he cast a spirit ring. This is the first disaster I encountered in my new life. You can only help me solve this problem. Only one curse can really release me. If you don’t have that
