Tao Zang Xuan Zhi
Chapter 21
Zhong Shujuan calmed down her miserable emotions, handed the bamboo basket in her hand to Zhang Shiyin, and said softly:"Wanlan hasn't eaten for several days, and she is always like this. She likes snakeheads the most, so use this to make her a Let's have fish fillet porridge."
Zhang Shiyin picked up the heavy bamboo basket, looked at his timid wife, squeezed her shoulder, smiled and said"ok".
But when the fish fillet porridge was cooked, Zhang Shiyin suddenly felt bad.
——His daughter is not at home!
No one drank the porridge when it was served. If it falls again, Zhong Shujuan's hard work will be in vain, and she will be discovered by the maids. But how could he have lunch for two people? How can this be done?
Zhang Shiyin was carrying fish porridge, neither going upstairs nor returning to the kitchen.
Looking at Zhong Shujuan who was guarding the stairs downstairs with a hopeful and timid expression, Zhang Shiyin could only bite the bullet and knock on the empty boudoir door.
Surprisingly, the door opened.
Zhong Wanling, wearing a middle coat and looking haggard, opened the door."Dad?"
Zhang Shiyin was taken aback and quickly winked at Zhong Wanling and said,"Your mother saw that you haven't eaten for several days and bought you a black fish. Don't be angry and eat some quickly."
Zhong Wanling She looked at the casserole in Zhang Shiyin's hand, and then at the person hiding at the top of the stairs. She smiled with relief and said,"The done deal is useless, no matter how much resentment you have. Wan Lan is not angry with her mother, but she has been feeling unwell recently. I have been resting in bed since I lost my appetite. I also asked my father to tell my mother not to worry. There is no overnight feud between mother and daughter."
"well! Zhang Shiyin nodded happily, and then felt the weight of the tray in his hand, and said hurriedly:"We'll talk about this later, let me in first, it's very heavy.""
Zhong Wanling turned sideways and asked Zhang Shiyin to come in. He pretended not to notice the figure hiding at the top of the stairs and closed the door.
Zhang Shiyin put down the casserole, filled out a bowl for Zhong Wanling, and hurriedly urged his daughter to eat.
Zhong Wanling was really not good at running around for days. I wanted to eat something delicious, but I was slapped by the Golden elixir monk at the venue, and my energy and blood were greatly reduced. This snakehead fish fillet porridge came in time.
Zhong Wanling ate it without thinking too much.
"Go slow and stab carefully."
Zhang Shiyin originally wanted to ask Xuantian about the selection, but seeing his daughter's pale face and haggard appearance, it was difficult for him to ask. He watched his daughter let go of her appetite and eat without any image, and felt sad. This They have already done their best, so why blame those who have worked so hard if it doesn't work? So what if the boat is done, they can still work together. At night with the moon and stars scarce, Lao Ding sat alone on the steps of the main hall, drinking wine and eating melon seeds. Over the towering courtyard wall, I looked at the bright moon with one side missing in the night sky.
Suddenly, Lao Cun Ding felt a cool breeze behind his back. The hand that had just been about to take the melon seeds suddenly turned and twisted backwards, and his two fingers were strong. He clamped something on the ground and looked closely to see that it was a cut branch. Without looking back, he said with a smile:"Don't tease the old slave. The old slave is old and cannot be scared.""
In the darkness of the corridor, a clear female voice said with a smile:"Senior, you have done a good job."
The old temple Ding looked around, gathered up the melon seeds on hand and wrapped them hastily on the oil paper. He grabbed the melon seed bag in one hand and the wine jar in the other. He stretched out, as if he was ready to pack up and go to sleep. He walked slowly through the corridor, opened the side door of the corridor, and walked into the side room.
As soon as he entered the side room, the old temple man quickly closed the doors and windows, turned out the lights, and then looked at the wall who had come in with him without anyone noticing. Zhong Wanling saw that she was wearing the servant clothes she bought from him for a"heavy sum of money". She smiled appreciatively, and then listened to the movement outside with a serious face. For a long time, there was really no movement outside the house.
Old Temple Ding Cai said quietly:"Miss, don't be surprised, we can only talk in the dark."
People who practice martial arts and cultivating immortals have excellent eyesight, not to mention the bright moonlight outside the window. Even if there is no light, the two of them can't see each other clearly.
Zhong Wanling was a little confused:"Someone is watching you?"This old man has been working here for decades, and he is very senior among the servants. She is so old that she can't even find out his origins. How could anyone keep an eye on him?
Old Temple Ding sighed and said,"No. Me, they are looking for someone. But it’s also my fault, I provoked something terrible. Zhong Wanling became even more confused, but the old temple Ding asked:"Does Miss Wan Lan still remember Zhong Shi's death a few months ago?" Not long after you left me. Zhong
Wanling said softly. At that time, the prodigal son of Zhong Shi's family suspected that she had killed Zhong Shi and brought people to Magnolia House to make trouble. However, she had no intention of paying attention to it at the time. Later, for some reason, the matter was not resolved. Done with it
"On the same night, Master Zhong Jianan from Wufu Tower was also almost assassinated. Does the lady know about this?"
Zhong Wanling nodded."I heard that it was a servant of the Zhong family who did it. Zhong Shi was also there, and it was he who saved Zhong Jianan's life. Ironically, Jong-sil was found dead in his home the next morning. Some people said that they saw the Wufu Tower assassin wearing the clothes of a servant of the Zhong family, so they suspected that I killed Zhong Jianan in a sneak attack because I couldn't vent my anger by killing Zhong Jianan."
Old temple Ding snorted coldly and said angrily:"That's a bunch of nonsense. The person who killed Zhong Shi was not a human at all. How could it be blamed on the young lady? She must be the turtle son of that turtle bastard, right? I think he's lost his mind, and he's going to die soon!"
Zhong Wanling heard this and asked hurriedly:"Senior, what do you mean by this?"
The old temple Ding listened warily to the movement outside the house, and lowered his voice and said:"That's why I came to see you, Miss. I know that the young lady is going to fight between dragons and phoenixes, but I am afraid that I will distract you. Again, this is the trouble I caused, and I don’t want those people to implicate the lady, so I’ve been hiding it until now."
"Could it be you?"Zhong Wanling asked softly
"no."The old temple Ding shook his head and said,"I did intend to kill Zhong Shi, but someone took a step ahead of me."
"Miss, Zhong Shi died first."
Zhong Wanling was shocked."Could it be that Wufu Tower was directed and acted by the Zou family?"This is indeed something Zou Shui'er can do. But why? Is it just to pour dirty water on Zhong Wanling to cause trouble? The effect is not much, but the cost is quite high. The old temple Ding shook his head and said:"That's not the case.. Miss, please listen to me slowly."
"That night, I wanted to pluck out Zhong Shi, the drunken bastard. I sneaked into Haitang Garden and lurked outside the window, hoping to wait until Zhong Shi, the idiot, got drunk and choked him to death, making it look like he was choked to death by vomit."
Zhong Wanling thought: You are quite thoughtful. But you didn't interrupt.
"As a result, a woman wearing servant clothes came in, or it was wrong to say it was a woman, it was a monster. It has a face like a bug and its eyes are so big."Old Temple Ding made gestures on his face, and then gestured with his hands,"Hands can become blades! Half of Zhong Shi's head was cut off by its hands!"
Old temple Ding stroked his chest with concern, and continued:"But the old boy was not beheaded to death. The monster took a bead, and the bead would produce red tentacles. That tentacle When inserted into the human body, it will absorb the human essence and blood. Jong-sil’s stupid thing was sucked dry by that thing! Really suck it dry! The Presbyterian Church and the government blocked the news together, but I saw that the old toilet boy was sucked until his body was as thin as paper, as if there was only a piece of skin left. It was also rolled up and his bones were gone."Old Temple DingAs he was talking and reminiscing, he felt his hair go up on his back,"This is definitely a monster!"
"And that monster is none other than someone else."It," Old Temple Ding swallowed,"it is Zou Meier, the third young lady of the Zou family!" Its face will change!"
Zhong Wanling's expression also changed.
The old temple maid thought that Zhong Wanling didn't believe it, so he quickly said:"Miss, you must believe me, I won't lie to you! I swore to God that I would protect the successors of the old man and the old lady, otherwise the sky would strike like lightning."
Zhong Wanling stabilized the old temple Ding and said:"Wan Lan doesn't believe it, but how can the seniors be sure that it is Zou Mei'er and not that it just pretended to be Zou Mei'er and sneaked into Haitang Garden?"
Old Temple Ding patted his forehead."Hey, I spoke too hastily. The monster took the ball that absorbed the old man's eye blood and left. I followed it all the way, and it looked like Zou Meier all the way, and the place it went to was Wufu Tower!"
Zhong Wanling laughed a little. This old man was brave enough. After seeing such a terrifying scene, he actually dared to follow the monster all the way to the base camp. The old temple Ding continued vividly:"I will secretly climb to the top of Wufu Tower. As a result, guess what, that awesome Taoist from Xuanzhen Sect is here too!"
Zhong Wanling frowned. Calculating the time, it was around the time of Shangwangzhuang's scam. She guessed that the Taoist would not leave easily, but she did not expect that this person would be involved in the matter. But Du Yu was a Jindan monk after all, she observed This old ancestral Ding is just an ordinary charlatan with good martial arts skills."He didn't notice you?""
The old temple Ding did not notice the doubt in Zhong Wanling's words. Instead, he became smug and said proudly:"Hey, those bull-nosed immortals think they are great, but in fact they are very slow. To be honest, the old man is the real god, that's called a cow. I was also enlightened by the old lady back then. If my wife and I hadn't had little wisdom and were unable to cultivate to become immortals, the old lady and I would have been in the immortal class long ago."Speaking of this, the old temple Ding suddenly froze in his words, and subconsciously looked at the main hall a door away with a sad expression.
Shaoqing, the old temple Ding recovered, smiled awkwardly, patted his chest again and said:"My ability to hide my aura and my Qinggong skills were all taught by the old man, and he agreed. The young lady is the successor appointed by the old lady, just like the old lady and the old lady. From now on, if the young lady wants to follow or snap someone, just ask, I will definitely do it!"
Zhong Wanling couldn't help but be moved. This person sincerely admired her great-grandfather and great-grandmother who loved her. He would never lie to her. Moreover, the Lao Xianmen lineage is indeed very good at controlling spiritual power and breath. Old Temple Ding Although he is not a monk, since he has been taught by his great-grandfather, it is not surprising that he is outstanding in this area.
But... Zhong Wanling smiled bitterly and shook his head. This is the wealth that his great-grandmother left to her. She should not doubt this person, let alone treat him Sent into danger again.
Seeing Zhong Wanling, the old temple man shook his head anxiously."Miss, don't underestimate me!" I am old, but I can still eat! Can eat two big bowls! I am very powerful!"
Zhong Wanling quickly stopped the old temple leader, fearing that he would rush out in excitement and chop off Zou Meier's head to show her loyalty."No, no, Wan Lan means that there is no need for senior to take action now."
