Riding the Pheonix Chapter 89: Hook


Spring is fleeting, and April is here before my eyes.

I don’t know if there are too many things happening this spring, but the Buddha Bathing Festival in Baoling Temple is particularly grand this year.

Mingwei went to Mrs. Ming’s place one day in advance.

Mrs. Ming has been ill for many days and is feeling better just now.

When an old man is sick, he says bad things.

If anything happens, the two masters in Beijing will be worried.

With the current situation of the Ming family, it will not be easy for Ding to be reinstated after worrying about it.

So, apart from the housekeeper, the second lady almost lives here these days. She personally serves tea and boils medicine and does not dare to leave.

On this day, Mrs. Ming felt much better and was looking at the flowers by the window. The maid over there came to report that the seventh lady was here.

Mrs. Ming smiled a little reluctantly: "It's Xiao Qi, tell her to come in!"

The second lady saw it in her eyes and sighed secretly.

In just over a month, so many things happened in the family, tearing apart the illusion of harmony in the family.

At such a young age, the old lady had to face such a cruel truth. You can imagine the shock in her heart.

The key to uncovering all this is the death of Mrs. Mingsan.

Old Madam Ming couldn’t help but get angry, and she didn’t really want to see Ming Wei.

Mingwei also knows this, so he doesn't come here often.

But today, she had to come.

Last night Yang Shu climbed over the wall and entered Yu Fangyuan again, and threw her a map: "I know what Cui means."

"What?"

"Cuimu Peak." He said, "It's on Xiufeng Mountain."

Mingwei looked at the map and saw the place he pointed out: "Baoling Temple?"

Yang Shu nodded: "Baoling Temple is on Xiufeng Mountain, adjacent to Cuimu Peak."

Ming Wei pondered: "So, it is very likely that Ming San hid the things in Cuimu Peak?"

"Not bad."

"How big is that mountain? Is it easy to search?"

Yang Shu spread his hands: "If we want to search, it will take a year and a half!"

"Then we have to find another way!" Mingwei murmured.

They can't afford to delay it for a year and a half.

At this point in the drama, whether Jiang Wenfeng will leave or stay, there must be an explanation in the near future, otherwise, the momentum created during this period will be lost.

"The day after tomorrow is the Buddha Bathing Festival." Yang Shu said, "I heard that the Buddha Bathing Festival in Baoling Temple is particularly grand this year."

Mingwei looked at him: "You mean to use the Buddha Bathing Festival to lure the snake out of its hole?"

Yang Shu smiled and looked at the golden hairpin in her hair: "People have been looking at this bait for many days, is it time to take the bait?"

Mingwei thought for a while and smiled: "Then let's go to Baoling Temple for a tryst?"

Yang Shu laughed: "How dare you refuse to accept the invitation from a beautiful woman?"

……

"Do you want to go to Baoling Temple?" Mrs. Ming frowned.

"Yes." Mingwei lowered her eyebrows and said, "My mother hasn't been buried yet. I want to take advantage of the Buddha Bathing Festival to soak up the fragrance of Buddha. Maybe my mother's resentment will dissipate..."

Mrs. Ming was stunned for a while, then sighed: "It's okay, I'd like to take a break from the depression at home recently."

The old lady turned around and shouted: "Huang Ying, tell someone to go to Baoling Temple and tell them to leave a yard for us tomorrow."

The second lady was stunned for a moment and asked quickly: "Mom, are you going too?"

"If you want to go, let's go together." Mrs. Ming said, "Go to the Buddha and pray for blessings. I hope things go well at home."

"But your body..."

"I'm already fine. I feel so uncomfortable being stuck in the house all day long."

The second lady thinks about it too. The old lady was originally suffering from a heart disease, so she went to Baoling Temple to donate some money and seek psychological comfort, maybe she would get better quickly.

"Then my daughter-in-law will give her orders now."

"Yes." Mrs. Ming said again, "ask the fourth wife to go with her. She has been sick for many days. It would be unreasonable to continue to be sick."

"Yes."

Before the second lady left, she glanced at Mingwei and sighed again in her heart.

That Mr. Yang has been sending me things lately. This separation between the inside and the outside makes it difficult to see each other, I'm afraid it will be unbearable.

Why doesn’t this kid listen?

……

The second master just came back from outside and was stunned for a moment when he heard the news.

He didn't even go back to the house, so he went to Mrs. Ma's small courtyard first.

"That girl is going out." The second master said.

Hearing the news, the person behind the desk took a long breath: "She is finally going out. After so many days, she has whetted her appetite."

"Are you trying to lure us in?"

He did not answer, but asked: "Where is she going?"

The second master said: "I said tomorrow is the Buddha Bathing Festival, so I will go to Baoling Temple."

He frowned.

The second master said again: "I just got some news when I went out earlier."

"What?"

"That Mr. Yang knew about the Buddha Bathing Festival and wanted to visit Baoling Temple. He also invited Jiang Wenfeng. When the prince heard about this, he simply invited everyone to go together."

Looking at his bad expression, the second master was a little cautious: "What, is there something wrong here?"

After a while, he replied: "Of course they made an appointment, it's just the location. I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional."

The second master immediately thought: "What you mentioned earlier is in Baoling Temple?"

Seeing him nodding slowly, the second master was shocked: "Have they already known the secret of the golden hairpin? No way ~ IndoMTL.com ~ Didn't you say that ordinary people can't discover this thing?"

"I don't know." He said in a deep voice, "I didn't steal it that night. They must have guessed that there was something fatal in their hands. There are two possibilities now. One, they discovered the secret of the golden hairpin and said no They must have found other clues from the spy, so they went to Baoling Temple. Secondly, they didn't find out, they just felt something was wrong. This meeting was just to lure us into taking the bait and let us tell ourselves, that terrible thing What is the thing?"

The second master didn't believe it: "The spy only has a handful of bones left, how can he leave any clues? I saw it with my own eyes, not even a piece of paper was left. Even if you call the spirit, if you don't say that he has become a murderer, it will not be possible at all. Can’t you summon the spirit?”

The other party frowned: "That's a secret agent from the Imperial City Department. Who knows if he has some tricks up his sleeve."

After a pause, he added: "Besides, don't you think things have become out of control since that girl woke up? After Ji's death, I was originally worried that she would be summoned, but I kept looking for her. I can't even find her soul. She is haunted and haunted these days. Her occult skills may be stronger than I thought."

"Then what should we do? You even killed the spies of the Imperial City Division, why can't you kill her? Anyway, you said she is not Xiaoqi."

He smiled bitterly: "Do you think it was easy for me to kill that spy? It took many conditions to come together to kill him in one fell swoop. Moreover, killing her will not solve the future troubles. The key is Jiang Wenfeng and Mr. Yang. ”

When he said this, the second master was also troubled: "Then will we follow or not?"

He closed his eyes and meditated. After a while, he opened his eyes and said with all his energy: "Follow! The soldiers will block you, and the water will cover you. You tell the king so that we can make arrangements. If it is the worst outcome... If you can’t kill one, then kill them all!”
