Yan Ruyu noted the location, and she and Huo Changhe pretended nothing had happened for the time being, and followed the crowd away from the path.

At this time, Monk Kongming saw them walking away from behind a tree in the distance, so he turned back, picked up the food box, and took a detour to a cave.

Mr. Mo closed his eyes. The wound from the hidden weapon had not yet healed. Such a long and deep cut would not heal in a few days.

When he heard footsteps, he immediately opened his eyes and pressed his fingers on the dagger under the pillow.

Kong Ming walked in and he withdrew his hand.

Kongming took out the food from the food box and placed it neatly one by one.

"Sir, please have some."

Mr. Mo stood up with some difficulty, but Kong Ming did not dare to go up to help him - he could not touch him without Mr. Mo's permission, even if it was for his own good.

Mr. Mo ate while Kong Ming watched from the side, not daring to breathe.

After eating a third of the meal, he put down his chopsticks and asked calmly, "What's up today?"

Kong Ming then dared to say: "Sir, a family came today. It's an old lady with a middle-aged couple. They said they came to pray for a child, but..."

Mr. Mo glanced at him, and he lowered his head even more: "But I always feel that they don't seem to be interested in having a child."

"What's unusual?" Mr. Mo asked, "Be more specific, don't just say what you think."

"She refused to buy incense and beat the monk who was selling incense. She also went to the side hall. I met her in the side hall and then took her to the cave. I told her the origin of the Deer Fairy..."

Mr. Mo raised his eyelids and looked at Kong Ming. Kong Ming whispered, "She's fine, but I just think she doesn't quite believe this statement. When she entered the cave, she even asked me why I didn't go in."

"Has she ever looked into the eyes of those two bodies?" Mr. Mo asked.

"Yes, they looked at each other," Kong Ming nodded. "The disciples observing in the dark room saw it clearly. They all looked at each other, so there was nothing wrong when they made the wish."

Mr. Mo chuckled: "If that's the case, then there's nothing wrong with her. You're just being too paranoid."

"However, it is better to be cautious. Being more cautious will naturally have its benefits. Let's do this. Look at the name and address she wrote, find someone and kill him."

Just kill him.

Those light words made Kong Ming's heart sink.

"Yes."

Mr. Mo asked again: "There are more pilgrims recently, and there will be more in the future. You should keep an eye on the order outside and make sure there are no mistakes."

"Yes, Kongming understands," Kongming agreed in a low voice.

The topic was obviously over, but he didn't leave.

"Anything else?" Mr. Mo raised his voice like a hook.

Kong Ming's throat rolled slightly: "You said before that if I do well, you will give me a herb... I wonder if I can do it now..."

Mr. Mo smiled and said, "Do you think you did a good job?"

Kong Ming knelt down with a plop: "I will try my best to do my best. Please give me some medicine, sir. I promise to do everything I can to satisfy you."

Mr. Mo looked at the top of his head and didn't say anything for a while. After a while, he patted his bald head.

All the hairs on Kongming's body stood up, but he didn't dare to move.

Mr. Mo stretched out his hand, and he quickly held it, first standing up and bending over, and then helping Mr. Mo up.

"Prepare paper and pen."

Kongming did not dare to delay and quickly took out paper and pen.

Mr. Mo picked up the pen and drew a circle on the paper.

"Take this, go to the Linhou Medicine Garden, give it to the person in charge, and you can get the herbs you want."

Kong Ming was overjoyed and knelt down and kowtowed again: "Thank you sir, thank you sir!"

……

Yan Ruyu and Huo Changhe returned to the carriage. The eldest lady was still waiting. She finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw them come back.

"Ruyu, how's the situation in the cave? Are you not in trouble?"

"No, I'm fine," Yan Ruyu comforted, glancing at Huo Changhe inconspicuously.

Huo Changhe cleared his throat: "Mother, Yu'er and I have to go see an old friend, you go back first."

The eldest lady was surprised: "Old friend? What old friend? How can there be an old friend here?"

Huo Changhe said nonsense in a serious tone, "He is an old friend of the abbot. When he left just now, he happened to know about his stay in the temple. If we didn't know, it would be fine. Now that we know, we have to go and visit him."

The eldest lady suddenly realized: "Yes, we should take a look, but we didn't bring any gifts."

"No need for gifts. We may not see him today. If we do, bring him some nice gifts. He won't care about the gifts. Wait until I confirm it's him. Then I'll go back and tell the abbot to have him come in person. It won't be too late to bring gifts then."

The eldest lady was tricked into leaving and told the two of them to go back early.

Yan Ruyu went into the grove nearby, changed her makeup and clothes. There was some chicken blood on her clothes. Her hair was combed into the simplest style, and as soon as the hairpin loosened, half of it would fall down immediately.

Yan Ruyu tidied herself up and put on a cloak to cover the bloodstains on her skirt.

Huo Changhe was asking the people who were on duty secretly about the situation, but they didn't find anything unusual, and they didn't see anyone arriving except the pilgrims.

In fact, Yan Ruyu was already the last group. If they were any later, the temple gates would be closed and no one would come.

Huo Changhe waved his hand and his men retreated.

Seeing Yan Ruyu coming out after packing up, he also went in to change his clothes.

The clothes were changed, the beard was not removed, and the scar on the forehead changed its position.

While I was busy, Yinguo came in from outside, looking suspicious.

"Your Majesty."

"Why are you here? Is there anything going on over there?"

"No, everything is fine." Yinding handed something over, "This is for you. It will make you look more majestic when you wear it."

Huo Changhe looked down at what he held in his hand, and became extremely angry.

"Wearing an eyepatch and pretending to be a one-eyed dragon is called being powerful?"

Yinding blinked his eyes: "Your Highness, you don't know that one eye can explain many things. First, it shows that you have experienced fierce battles. Second, your disability but strong will can reflect your most precious quality. Third..."

Huo Changhe could no longer bear it: "Is this the end?"

"It will be over soon. Thirdly, it can completely change your appearance. Even if there are some small doubts, they will be dispelled instantly. After all, you are not a one-eyed dragon just now."

This makes sense.

Huo Changhe thought that finding Mr. Mo was a big deal, so it was not impossible to disguise himself.

He took the blindfold and put it on. Yinding nodded repeatedly: "Not bad, not bad."

"Get lost."

Huo Changhe packed up and came out. Yan Ruyu turned around and saw him. She was stunned for a moment and wanted to laugh.

No wonder Yinding looked a little bit mean when he said he had something important to tell him just now. It turned out that he was going to deliver the eye mask.

Huo Changhe cleared his throat: "How is it?"

"Okay, that's fine. It's more in line with the image of a robber."

Huo Changhe: "..."

"Let's go."

Yan Ruyu walked in front, the corners of her mouth curled up uncontrollably, while Huo Changhe followed behind with a speechless look.

But the silver ingot had disappeared long ago.

At this time, in the medicinal garden behind the grove.

Monk Kongming pushed open the gate.

A woman was standing in the yard with her back to him, drying herbs.
