Poor monks do not break the precepts

The storm of martial arts has never really stopped. Mr. Ji has taken over the hidden world villa for many years. He is used to seeing the blood and rain of martial arts, and he is very open to the rumors and slanders that have been going on for several months.There is no family in the world that can stand for thousands of years. With her relatives and friends by her side, and her children on her knees, it is enough to live a stable life.

Now the sixth prince's explanation, although it can't completely quell the recent turmoil in the world, it can somehow bring about peace for a while, after a long absence for a reunion trip, leaving Jishi Mountain for only one day, Mr. Ji simply asked Zheng Fengnian to drive slowly.

Ji Duorui lightly held his beautiful wife's jade finger, and when he thought of Lianxin Huiji, he became angry, "Second sister, are you really going to have a deep talk with Mr. Butterfly?"

Mr. Ji stuffed a hand stove for Huaiming Mo, looked embarrassed, and sighed: "Since Lianxin Huiji has appeared, there must be times when she shows her feet. Unless it is absolutely necessary, I really don't want to bother my old friend."

"But now that we're in the open, she's using tricks in secret, making people uneasy."

Ji Boru chewed the pastry, teasing vaguely: "There are people in the world that third uncle is afraid of, it's strange, it's really strange."

Ji Duorui picked up the fan as if to hit her, and said to Mr. Ji: "I have no respect for my elders, it's my fault for not being a godmother."

These two have always liked to play tricks and trick each other. They are probably about the same age, so they have never been used to it.Normally in the Hermitage Villa, Mrs. Ji would never say anything when she saw her. Naturally, Mr. Ji would not care about it, let alone intervene.So in the carriage, you said something to me, and the two refused to give in. Fortunately, the two of them knew that it was not suitable to compete in the carriage and horse, and the competition was only for cheap.

Huai Mingmo was the youngest in age, and his temper was more mature and prudent. He smiled lightly and listened to the bickering between the two.Suddenly there was a throbbing pain in his chest, and Xu Sheng's figure suddenly appeared in his mind. He lifted the windshield curtain and couldn't help but look in the direction of Jishi Mountain, even though he could only see nothingness in his empty eyes.

The few people who were chatting enthusiastically looked at each other, and Ji Boru asked quickly: "What's the matter? Are you uncomfortable?"

"It's nothing, just a little dizzy all of a sudden." Although Huai Mingmo said so, his face was so pale that there was no blood in it, and he moved his eyes uneasily.

Mr. Ji grabbed Huai Mingmo's wrist to feel his pulse, he let out a breath, and said with peace of mind: "It should be fine, maybe it's because I was sick from exhaustion a few days ago, and my body hasn't fully recovered." She thought about it, and said to Ji Duorui: " You let Zheng Fengnian go to the post station near Liu County, we will stay here to rest today, and we will leave at noon tomorrow."

Ji Boru has long been used to his mother's preference, nudging Huai Mingmo with his elbow, she smiled and said, "Thanks to you."

Ji Duorui teased and said with a teasing smile: "No, compared to Xiao Ming Mo, my third master of the Ji family is just an errand runner."

Huai Mingmo's eyes were closed tightly, his face was very pale, and he was so upset that he couldn't explain why.Seeing this, the two chattering people hurriedly silenced their voices so that Huai Mingmo could have a better rest.

It was about five miles away from the post station, and it took only half a minute to drive slowly. Zheng Fengnian put the man down outside the post station, and planned to settle down with Xin Li, who was riding alone.As soon as the two arrived at the stable, before Xinli could unload the saddle, he saw Huai Mingmo walking alone.

Xinli had a delicate mind and knew Huai Mingmo better than others, so he guessed, "Do you have something to ask, sir?"

Huai Mingmo nodded and didn't say much, just said: "Ride your horse to Shaolin immediately, and come back before noon tomorrow."

Xinli and Zheng Fengnian exchanged glances, looked around and saw no one, but still said in a low voice: "Is it Wuwangya? With Miaoseng's ability, no one should be able to embarrass him."

"Yes, Pavilion Master, don't worry too much." Having said that, Zheng Fengnian didn't tie up Xinli's mount, but took the reins and waited for Xinli to set off.

"I have been restless since last night." Huai Mingmo said stubbornly: "Anyway, you go immediately, and don't disturb the eminent monk in the temple. If he encounters trouble, you must help him. If I am careless, he will If you have blamed yourself, just tell me for a while, and I will come to the door to apologize in person." Concentrated for a moment, he said again: "Go and come back quickly, be careful yourself."

"Hey, why bother..." Xinli got on his horse before finishing his sentence, and said straightly, "I will be back as soon as possible, don't worry."

My beloved son suddenly left in a hurry, there is no reason for Ji Yintong not to be worried, so he followed behind secretly, but he didn't expect to hear this strange conversation.Speaking of which, she had already felt that Huai Mingmo had a weird attitude towards Xu Sheng, and when she thought about the major events in the martial arts for several months, she suddenly had a weird idea, she couldn't help being startled, and walked back quietly.

People who are always wandering around are not used to living a leisurely life at all. Not long after lunch, Ji Boru went out with nothing to do, saying that he was going to the official teahouse to inquire about news.The women's college can't control it, and besides, Ji Boru is very measured in doing things, and Mr. Ji always does what she does.Ji Duorui originally wanted to go out of the post station to investigate the whereabouts of Lianxin Huiji, but he was very worried about the safety of his beloved wife, so he had to give up and wait until he returned to the villa to make plans.

In a rare and leisurely afternoon, Huai Mingmo was wrapped tightly in a velvet cloak and lay on the grand teacher's chair in the corridor, as if he was leisurely closing his eyes and resting his mind.Zheng Fengnian was on the sidelines, taking advantage of the free time to fight and practice swords.

Mr. Ji is well-known in martial arts, even if he goes out and disguises himself, he will still meet some people who know her well, and he has to greet them a few times.When she was free, it was almost dinner time. Fortunately, Ji Boru hadn't come back yet, so she still had time to chat with Huai Mingmo alone.

"Mother has something to do with me?" When Huai Mingmo returned from the stable to the post station, and passed by the side door, he faintly smelled the elegant smell of Mr. Ji's powder, and he already guessed that Mr. Ji would ask himself to clarify.

Mr. Ji helped Huai Mingmo up, saw that his expression was clear, and said softly: "It's cold outside, let's talk in your room."

Huai Mingmo smiled lightly, "Alright."

Zheng Fengnian works for Xuanji Pavilion and is Huai Mingmo's confidant, so he doesn't need to avoid it, but he is worried that it will be bad if someone breaks in, so he said: "This subordinate is waiting outside."

Seeing the hesitation on Huai Mingmo's face, Mr. Ji smiled lightly and patted him on the back, affirming: "Your third uncle is sometimes stubborn, and it's better not to let him know some things for now, so as not to hold back your anger for a while, nothing happened. Go find trouble." Pulling Huai Mingmo to a warmer table, Mr. Ji said before Zheng Fengnian closed the door: "If you see Third Master Ji coming, knock on the door twice in advance."

After a moment of silence, Huai Mingmo made up his mind and said, "Is mother here for a false life?"

"Since you are bothering him, how can I not come for him." Mr. Ji looked directly at Shang Huai Mingmo's black eyes.

Huai Mingmo sensed Mr. Ji's gaze, and felt quite uncomfortable, as if he had been in the dark all year round and was suddenly exposed to the light.Mr. Ji didn't want to embarrass Huai Mingmo. Seeing his distressed face, he decisively looked away, casually flipped through the miscellaneous notes on the table, and said with a smile: "If you don't want to say it, then don't say it. Mother is just worried about you, and she is afraid that you will get into too much trouble for something." It would be dangerous."

A trace of panic and sadness flashed in his eyes, Huai Mingmo lowered his eyes and shook his head and said: "Son understands, what mother wants to know, just ask."

Mr. Ji grabbed Huai Mingmo's cold hand, and asked calmly, "Who is Xu Sheng except the identity of the Miao Monk?"

"Son wants to know." Huai Mingmo smiled wryly, and said helplessly, "I don't know."

"Do you suspect that he will steal incense?" Huai Mingmo's hand trembled suddenly, and the grasped hand unconsciously resisted and wanted to withdraw.Mr. Ji let go of his hand as he wished, and said softly: "I have observed Xu Sheng several times, and his martial arts are not bad, but he can be regarded as second-rate at best. Why do you suspect that he is an incense thief?"

Huai Mingmo was in deep thought for another moment, then raised his eyes abruptly, as if he was going all out, and said comprehensively: "Mother knows that I am blind, so my other senses will be different from ordinary people. I have fought against incense robbers before, and there is no way to avoid contact. Xu The hands of the monk Sheng are very similar to those of the incense robbers, and the aura exuding from his body is almost exactly the same as that of the incense robbers. Maybe this is a coincidence, but the third uncle once said that it is unknown whether the incense robbers use strange incense or to cover up their identities. Looking around Martial arts, there are many similarities with Fragrance Pirates, besides Xu Sheng, who else?"

Thinking of the eye-catching picture of the snowy Cangshan Mountain in the Withered Grass Cottage, and the assortment of utensils and jades in the house, Mr. Ji was quite surprised when he first arrived.Hearing what Huai Mingmo said, I felt like I was explaining it away. After thinking about it, I was even more confused: "Since you have doubts about him, why did you hide it for him. The night before last, you could clearly expose it in front of us. No matter how powerful the Fragrance Thief is, it is not easy to escape from the hands of the four major sects."

Shicai still had a troubled face, and gradually there was a blush that seemed to be there, and he hesitated a little: "My son is not sure, I dare not slander at will. If my son made a mistake and publicized it, wouldn't it be troublesome for Xu Sheng .”

Seeing Aizi's strange behavior, Mr. Ji thought for a while, couldn't help thinking of Ji Duorui's joke, and couldn't help but click his tongue: "That crow's mouth."

Huai Mingmo always turned a blind eye to his own thoughts that should not have been on his mind. Hearing Mr. Ji's whisper in a rather corrupt tone was like being struck by a copper bell, which made Huai Mingmo's heart tremble suddenly. .He couldn't help clenching his hands, and explained palely: "I don't want the three factions to have misunderstandings with Shaolin..."

Mr. Ji couldn't bear to say: "Yu Qing is at odds, and Yu Gang is often at odds. Sister, she..."

Huai Mingmo let go of his hands, stretched out his hand to cover the back of Mr. Ji's hand, smiled bleakly, and said with difficulty: "My son understands, and he dare not do anything that insults the family."

"This matter is still under investigation, and the incense thief is also being used by others. If it is found out that the incense thief did not participate in the frame-up, can you not reveal his identity to the world, and help him hide it." However, Mr. Ji changed the subject, his eyes flashed sharply, "But Ming Mo, if Xiang Pirate is the one who planned it, then Hidden World Villa will not be able to let him go. Such vicious slander, intentionally framing the Ji family and deceiving the emperor, It's obvious that Ji's family is going to die, and we can't tolerate it."

Huai Mingmo knew in his heart what would happen if the Fragrant Pirates were the masterminds, and he would have made a decision long ago, but he always believed that the Fragrant Pirates were human, and smiled a little, "My son knows how to do it."

Mr. Ji was fascinated by Huai Mingmo's smile, pinched his face, and said with a smile: "I've never seen you smile like this, it seems that you really trust him."

"I have heard his piano sound, tasted his tea, traced his handwriting, and played chess with him." Huai Ming's dark eyes were shining brightly, like the brightest star in the dark, with a little pride, "I don't believe that he is a vicious villain. Maybe he is not upright, but he must be a gentleman."

Mr. Ji was speechless for a moment, and after a while he said with emotion: "Maybe I want to thank the mastermind behind the scenes and let the incense thief come back."

Huai Mingmo was puzzled, and he couldn't find an answer after contemplating for a long time, "Why did mother say that?"

Mr. Ji chuckled and did not answer, as if he had made a decision and sighed: "Before you find out the truth, if you believe him, mother will not stop you from having more contacts with him. You can do as you like, and remember to be careful. After all You may not be his match for stealing the inner strength, if the truth comes out one day, beware of his ruthless attack."

"Son, remember."

It's only half a day's journey from Shaolin to the post station on horseback, Xinli arrived at Wuwangya just after You Hour, when the lights should be bright, but Wuwangya was so dim that it made people shiver.Xinli has been to Wuwangya many times, and it is the first time that he feels that this is such a lonely place. The strong wind is like a knife, and it hurts people's faces. The utterly silent night makes people unable to breathe. I'm afraid I can't bear it, it's hard to imagine that Xu Sheng can survive twenty years.

Xin Li had abandoned his horse and rushed back to the post station with light work. He almost exhausted his skills and arrived at the post station in less than two and a half hours.It was already late at night, and Huai Mingmo still hadn't gone to bed. Zheng Fengnian knew that Huai Mingmo would not be able to fall asleep without seeing Xin Li, so he didn't persuade him much.

Seeing Xin Li's pale complexion in the middle of the night, Zheng Fengnian couldn't help being startled, and hurriedly asked: "What happened, why do you look so pale?"

Huaimingmo's complexion was not very good because he hadn't slept all night. When he heard Zheng Fengnian's tone, he got up in a fright, put his hands on the armrest of the Grand Master's chair, and asked anxiously: "Is something wrong? Is Xu Sheng okay?"

Xin Li luckily adjusted his breath a little, and quickly explained: "No, I haven't seen Master Xu Sheng."

Zheng Fengnian watched anxiously from the sidelines, and smacked his tongue impatiently: "Don't say half of what you said, finish it quickly, what happened at Wuwangya?"

Tired from rushing all the way back, his mouth was parched, Xin Li hurriedly swallowed half a pot of herbal tea, and said in a gentle tone, "The withered grass hut is in a mess, with signs of being turned upside down, and signs of being deliberately smashed to vent anger. I don't know where Master Xu Sheng has gone."

"Where is Zi Gui? You can ask him." Huai Mingmo was worried about Xu Sheng's safety, and he had lost his usual calmness, and he didn't even notice that Xin Li was depressed and depressed. "Xu Sheng is not here, he is always there, isn't he also Do you know where Xu Sheng is going?"

"Zi Gui is dead." Xin Li said sympathetically, "The Peony Terrace next to the withered grass hut was destroyed, and it is now his tomb."

Perhaps the news came too suddenly, Huai Mingmo was stunned for a long time, then suddenly sat down dejectedly, half-opening his mouth, unable to utter a word.

The figure that was still alive before suddenly disappeared, Zheng Fengnian also sighed, and said: "You are just a child, who is so cruel."

Xinli said firmly: "I don't know who it is, but I'm sure it wasn't done in vain."

"Everyone knows his heart to protect Zigui. Not to mention taking Zigui's life, he is reluctant to hurt Zigui." Huai Mingmo gradually calmed down his chaotic mood, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said coldly : "An innocent child was murdered. This person is really vicious. Xinli, you should send someone to investigate immediately."

Xinli nodded and said, "This subordinate will definitely give instructions." After finishing speaking, he speculated again, "It is estimated that Lianxin Huiji cannot escape being involved in this matter."

Huai Mingmo recalled all kinds of things that happened in the withered grass hut, his heart seemed to be covered by falling snow, the warmth was gone, and he said sadly: "Xu Sheng will never go back to the withered thatched hut again."

Zheng Fengnian said: "Leaving Shaolin, where will Monk Xu Sheng go?"

Xinli shook his head and said, "Miaoseng has many friends, but few people in Wulin know him. I'm afraid it will be more difficult to find his trace in the future." Suddenly, Xinli helped Huai Mingmo put two pieces behind his back. A goose down soft pillow, and a thick brocade quilt was draped over him, "According to the spies' report, the Sixth Prince seems to intend to invite Master Xu Sheng to Beijing, and the Amorous Young Master seems to be haunting Yongle City often. After leaving Liu County, will Master Xu Sheng go to Beijing together?"

Huai Mingmo stood up, he was always in a mess when it came to matters related to Xu Sheng.Xin Li knew that persuasion was useless, so he shook his head helplessly and listened to Huai Mingmo's order: "After a few hours, when the sky is light, go hire a car."

"Mr. Ji is afraid that there will be objections."

"Mother, I will persuade myself." Huai Mingmo didn't have Zheng Fengnian's concerns, "Brother Zheng, you ordered Luo Chen and Zang Li to come. The capital is a place of conflict, and there are many people who are right and wrong. I'm afraid there will be no peace. .”

Zheng Fengnian wanted to argue again, but seeing Xin Li shaking his head to stop him, he had no choice but to give up, "I'll send someone to inform Mr. Wantong again, so that he can make preparations early, and secondly, if Master Xusheng enters Beijing, he can find out where he is going as soon as possible."

Seeing Huai Mingmo's expression calm down, Xinli said, "I have to hurry tomorrow, so let's take a nap for a while, Master."

"The female killer organization needs to find out as soon as possible, and the investigation of everything is currently at a bottleneck. If I guess correctly, this organization may be a breakthrough." Huai Mingmo ordered a lot of things in a hurry, and then he settled down and took a rest. .

This time, Huai Mingmo couldn't sleep well, dreaming repeatedly of illusory figures, or being attacked and injured, or mourning and crying, familiar yet strange, familiar because in the dream he still knew it was a false life, but Because I haven't touched the facial features, I don't know the appearance.Huai Ming Mo Qian slept for less than an hour, and was suddenly awakened by the scene in his dream.His forehead was covered with beads of sweat, his hair was sticky on his cheeks and neck, and his body was covered in cold sweat, like a frightened little animal.

Early the next morning, Huai Mingmo deliberately accompanied Mr. Ji to have breakfast. When Mr. Ji heard that Huai Mingmo was going to the capital, he didn't stop him, but said: "The situation in the capital is complicated, you need to be more careful."
