Riding the Pheonix Chapter 6: Copy Scripture


It gets dark early in the spring. Just after the clock has hit, the wind has already settled down and everyone in the Ming Dynasty has turned off the lights and locked up.

Duofu is making the bed, carefully warming the bed with Tang Pozi.

Mingwei stood in front of the window, looking at the garden under the night.

Looking from here, you can just see a corner of the lake. The willow tree where the evil thing was hidden was covered in a faint layer of **** light in the darkness, and was bound by a thin barrier, unable to escape.

This is the formation created by Mrs. Liu. Although it is weaker, it still works.

Mingwei thought about it, she had not been in the soul for a long time, and her body was weak. With this forbidden seal blocking her, she could not hold off for a few months. By then, she should have enough strength.

She looked back at the big bed.

Miss Ming Qi’s soul shrank in the barrier she had set up, with a blank look on her face.

Mingwei sighed silently.

This child doesn't know whether to say his life is good or bad. She was born stupid, but she had a mother who regarded her as her fate. How sad would Mrs. Mingsan be if she knew that her daughter was dead?

And her scattered souls and four souls are unknown where they are. They have been lost for more than ten years, and I am afraid they will not be easily recovered.

"Miss, the quilt is warmed up, do you want to sleep?" Duofu called her.

"Yeah."

Mingwei took off his coat, lay down on the warm quilt, and looked at the red knot that Duofu still had on his hand.

"What a blessing."

"Hey."

"Don't pick it off."

Duofu lowered his head, saw what she was looking at, and smiled: "Okay. This is a gift from the lady to Duofu. I won't pick it off again."

Mingwei closed her eyes.

Miss Ming Qi has a yin and yang destiny like her, but the maid next to her has a pure yang destiny. Could it be that she was sent here by the Tianxing Formation and had a destiny somewhere in the world?

……

Deeper and more revealing.

Mrs. Mingsan put on her cloak and tied her hood, getting ready to go out.

Mother Tong came over: "Madam, there is still that deadly thing in the garden, why don't you go out today?"

Mrs. Mingsan was unmoved: "Don't worry, Grandma, I won't go to the lake, nothing will happen."

"But..."

Mrs. Mingsan had already lifted up her skirt and left the house, and Mother Tong had no choice but to call the maid: "Sujie, please bring a hand stove. It is windy at night, so be careful when carrying a lantern..."

"I know, Nanny!" the maid responded with a smile.

The master and the servant walked quickly and were far away in a short time.

It wasn't until the light disappeared that Mother Tong withdrew her reluctant eyes and slowly returned to the house. The old face was covered with shadows.

In the quiet night, the little maid guarding the tea room looked at the lights passing by outside the window, rubbed her hands and asked her companion: "It's so late, madam, where are you going? Didn't you say there is a ghost in the garden? What if I bump into her?"

Another older maid poured herself a cup of hot tea and said slowly: "Don't you know? Madam is going to copy scriptures. She said she made a wish in the early years to pray for the young lady, even if it's snowing heavily. , and it won’t stop. There are a lot of things going on today, so it’s probably because of the delay that it’s so late.”

The little maid held her chin up and was very envious: "Madam is so kind. If my mother were half as good as her, I wouldn't have been sold in."

The eldest maid smiled: "It's good, but it's too painful. If she were my mother, I wouldn't be willing to let her suffer like this."

……

Mrs. Mingsan walked into Liujingtang.

Elemental nodes light candles.

The dim candlelight brings a faint warmth.

This is an offering hall with only three rooms. In the middle is a long offering table, with a half-human-tall female fairy statue on top.

Su Jie heard from Mother Tong that this was the Empress of the Nine Heavens.

The first time she learned about it, she still felt strange. Don’t they usually worship Guanyin Bodhisattva?

However, Empress Xuannv is also a very powerful god, can she also bless the young lady, right?

Mrs. Mingsan took off her cloak and rolled up her sleeves, revealing a pair of plain white hands. Then he took out the whisk himself and started cleaning. Finally, light the incense, bow respectfully three times, and insert it into the incense burner.

In the curl of green smoke, she walked to the corner, added water, polished ink, and began to write and copy scriptures.

Su Jie quietly retreated.

The copper kettle leaks, and time passes by little by little.

Unconsciously, the bangzi struck three times.

The ajar door of the altar was quietly pushed open, and a figure appeared there. Different from the tall figure of a woman, a long shadow was drawn by the light.

Mrs. Mingsan didn’t seem to notice at all and continued to copy scriptures quietly.

The candlelight cast on her face, which seemed to have no trace of time, became clearer and softer.

The man leaned against the door and admired it quietly for a while before slowly coming in.

The tall figure belonging to a man, standing behind Mrs. Mingsan, makes her look delicate and pitiful.

The man let out a low laugh, jumped forward, and hugged Mrs. Mingsan into her arms. Then he rubbed her green hair with his chin and said in a lazy tone: "Sister-in-law is really fearless for Xiao Qi. I heard that there is an evil ghost hiding in Yufangyuan, and now no one dares to go out. The third sister-in-law is still the same as before, coming to the altar in the middle of the night to copy scriptures. Hmm, maybe it’s for me?”

His hug just now hit Mrs. Ming San so hard that her wrist shook. The soaked pen tip couldn't bear the strength, and ink dripped on the paper.

With a calm expression, Mrs. Mingsan put the stained paper aside, picked up a clean piece of paper and continued to copy.

"There are still two verses left. Let me finish copying them. ~IndoMTL.com~ Haha..." The man behind him paused for a moment, then finally let go, "Okay, when did I ever refuse the third sister-in-law's request?" ?"

Mrs. Mingsan continued to copy scriptures.

From beginning to end, he did not look back at the man, nor did he stop copying.

The man who suddenly appeared turned around and leaned on the table as if he were boneless. Then he took out a bag from under his sleeve, pulled out the stopper and took a sip.

The strong smell of alcohol filled the altar.

He took a sip of wine and glanced at Mrs. Ming San several times before suddenly laughing: "They say that beauty is even more beautiful when viewed under the lamp. It's true! Mrs. Ming is so stunning that she can't even look at her. She looks more like a human than a fairy."

Mrs. Mingsan said nothing, and her hand copying scriptures did not pause at all.

Seeing that she didn't respond, the man finally stopped harassing her and just drank by himself.

After a while, Mrs. Mingsan finally finished copying, put down her pen, dried the ink, and folded it carefully.

The man waited for her to finish all this and turn around to face him, then he put aside the wine bag without hesitation, hugged her, and eagerly put his hands into his clothes.

Mrs. Mingsan grabbed his hand and said, "Empress Xuannu is here."

The man was interrupted by her and sighed helplessly: "Okay, okay, don't let your empress Xuannv see this dirty thing, so as not to blame you and protect Xiaoqi." Then his eyes showed excitement. , reached down and hugged her waist, and strode to the left room, "Do you think it's particularly exciting, third sister-in-law, to go out for a tryst at the risk of running into ghosts? My little brother can't bear it anymore!"

The body rolled off the bed, with two "clicks", the shoes fell off, and the sound of clothes rustling was followed by heavy breathing.

There were no more words in the room.

Only Empress Xuannv remained silent, watching all the joys and sorrows in the world.
