Chapter 928 Children Are Not Allowed to Watch
It was already halfway through the third drum, and it was late at night, but there was still a flickering candlelight on the side of the west hall of Tongzhen Temple.
On the eaves, Xu Xian, Zhan Zhao, and Bai Yutang crouched and quietly touched the top of the west hall. Looking up, they saw two figures illuminated by the light on the window, as if they were tightly leaning on each other.
Seeing this scene, the fourteen-year-old Xu Xian was curious and couldn't help stretching his head down.
But before he could see the situation in the room clearly, two big hands covered his face at the same time, one hand covering his eyes and the other hand covering his mouth, and just pressed him back.
"Ka--"
Xu Xian fell to the roof and looked at Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang in a daze.
Zhan Zhao glanced at the entangled figures in the window below, and couldn't help but glared at Bai Yutang, and said in a line: "Why did you bring him here!"
Bai Yutang looked depressed and whispered: "How could I know that there would be such a thing in this Tongzhen Temple..."
Zhan Zhao sighed, then coughed lightly, turned his head and looked at Xu Xian. Just as he was about to make up a lie to fool him, he suddenly found that the person in the room below seemed to be startled by the sound of Xu Xian falling down just now, and actually reached out and pushed open the window.
Seeing this scene, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang quickly retreated to the roof.
The latter pinched his throat and whispered: "Meow~"
A lifelike cat cry suddenly sounded, and then Bai Yutang crushed the tiles at hand, flicked his fingers, and used stones to hit the tiles to imitate the sound of a cat running across the roof.
"...It turned out to be a wild cat!"
The person in front of the window was fooled, and immediately closed the window, blew out the candle, and turned off the lights.
Seeing this, Bai Yutang breathed a sigh of relief, turned around, and found that Xu Xian and Zhan Zhao were looking at him strangely.
Bai Yutang asked curiously: "Why are you looking at me like that? I am a thief saint, and it is normal for me to know some tricks to climb up the roof?"
Zhan Zhao was slightly startled and couldn't help but said: "Thief saint?"
Bai Yutang smiled and whispered: "The Taoist priest helped me get a name before. How about it? Is it more impressive than the Golden Rat?"
Zhan Zhao's mouth twitched, and then he skipped the topic directly, turned his head and looked at the window below, and said lightly: "So you can do this. Next time I catch you, I will pay attention..."
"..."
Bai Yutang's smile froze.
Xu Xian came over and whispered, "Brother Zhan, he pushed the window just now, didn't he? Did you see him?"
Zhan Zhao nodded and said in a low voice, "Yes, I saw him. It was the Taoist priest Tan Yue in the temple."
Xu Xian asked curiously, "What about the other person?"
Zhan Zhao was speechless for a moment and said hesitantly, "Yes... a woman."
Bai Yutang came back to his senses and smiled, "I didn't expect that there would be such a filthy place in the suburbs of Beijing. It turns out that the Ziyang Temple in Lin'an Prefecture is still clean!"
As he said, he blinked at Xu Xian, "Don't you think so, little brother Xu."
Xu Xian looked confused and didn't understand what Bai Yutang was saying at all.
"Shut up!" Zhan Zhao glared at Bai Yutang, "You have led little brother Xu astray, be careful that the Taoist priest will hold you accountable!"
"...That's right."
Bai Yutang nodded, and recalled the palm when they first met, and couldn't help but feel a lingering fear.
After a little thought, he suddenly made a move, tapped Xu Xian twice like lightning, and then smiled: "That's fine!"
Zhan Zhao knew that he had sealed Xu Xian's acupoints, so he nodded and turned his head again.
At this moment, Xu Xian blinked his eyes, looked at him in surprise and said: "Brother Bai, why are you poking me?"
Bai Yutang was slightly startled, and then his face was full of surprise, and he couldn't help but tap a few more times.
This time he was serious, carefully sensing the flow of true energy, and found that Xu Xian's acupoints were as hard as iron. Even if his true energy was strong, he couldn't penetrate at all...
"...What a monster!"
"What did your master teach you?!"
Bai Yutang looked at Xu Xian with horror.
At this moment, Zhan Zhao suddenly shouted in a low voice: "Shut up!"
After this, the two finally stopped playing around and began to listen carefully to the movements below.
The worried voice of the woman came from the room: "Although you and I have made this plan, I don't know if my sister will go against it and whether she will agree or not."
The young Taoist priest named Tan Yue said nonchalantly: "Even if she doesn't agree, what can we do? When my master finishes this business and gets the reward, I will steal the silver, and we will leave this place and fly away. Isn't it wonderful?"
The woman was still worried and said: "If we can get away, it will be great, but I am afraid..."
Taoist priest Tan Yue suddenly got angry and said: "I am afraid of this and that. Well, I will let you know now. What is real fear! "
Speaking of this, Tan Yue changed the subject and sneered: "To tell you the truth, over the years, none of the women sent away by my master have come back alive!"
"I have long suspected that he is not acting as a matchmaker for those bigwigs in the court, but using this as an excuse to deceive and harm, and practice some magic such as Yin-Yang-Replenishing."
"Otherwise, how could he increase his cultivation every time after sending people away?"
Hearing Tan Yue's words, the woman's tone became obviously fearful.
"Is this true?"
The woman hesitated and said, "Then my sister..."
Tan Yue's tone changed, and he comforted her in a gentle voice: "Your sister took the disaster for you. When we live together in the future, at most we can set up a tablet for your sister, worship her more, and burn some incense and paper money, that's it!"
At this point, the figures in the window were already entangled, and Tan Yue coaxed in a low voice: "Okay, okay, I have my own concerns about this matter, so don't worry about it too much. Let's take advantage of this beautiful scenery and go together quickly." Wushan’s is so good…”
As he said that, the two figures got closer and closer, and they were about to merge into one.
At this moment, a ray of sword light struck at an angle, instantly cutting through the window and flying into the room.
Taoist Tanyue was suddenly startled. Before he could turn his head and look around, he noticed a cold edge on his neck.
The bright moonlight pours down from the sky and shines on the handsome face in front of the window, reflecting the giant sword in his hand as clear as spring water.
Zhan Zhao broke through the window and came in. He placed the giant sword on Tan Yue's neck and said coldly: "Taoist Tan Yue, please repeat what you just said so that Zhan can also know what real fear is." !”
"Gudong..."
Looking at Zhan Zhao's stern face, Tan Yue couldn't help but swallow her saliva and looked at Zhan Zhao with fear.
"How...why is it you?"
"Why are you here..."
Before he finished speaking, two figures descended from the sky and landed lightly behind Zhan Zhao.
Bai Yutang let go of Xu Xian's collar, glanced at the beautiful woman next to him who was frightened and had a dull look on his face, and said with a smile: "Okay, Brother Zhan, interrogation is not your specialty, so we'd better take this flirtatious couple back. , let the experts in Bao Gong’s house train you!”
"……ah?"
The beautiful woman fell to the ground and looked at her with fear: "Bao... Bao Gong's house..."
Seeing this scene, Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao were slightly startled, and then they understood something.
Tan Yue's heart skipped a beat and she hurriedly said: "Yu Xiang——"
Before he finished speaking, Bai Yutang stepped in front of him, danced with his fingers, and sealed his acupoints like lightning.
After Tan Yue stood frozen on the spot, Bai Yutang turned around and showed a gentle smile towards the woman on the ground.
"Girl, don't be afraid, speak slowly..."
Looking at Bai Yutang's handsome face, half of which was illuminated by the moonlight, the fear in Yuxiang's heart gradually disappeared, and he hesitated: "You...you all know?"
Bai Yutang knelt down, lifted Yuxiang's chin with one finger, and then slowly approached until the tips of their noses were almost touching. Both sides felt the other's warm breath, then he stopped and whispered softly.
"what do you know?"
Although the woman was beautiful, she was still young. She had never seen such a handsome ikebana master as Bai Yutang.
Coupled with the sudden incident and the fright in my heart, now is the time when I feel an extreme lack of sense of security.
Therefore, Bai Yutang only used a small plan, and the woman was so fascinated by his beauty trick that she subconsciously murmured: "Taoist Master Xing Ji secretly assassinated Mr. Bao..."
"What?!"
Zhan Zhao's pupils shrank suddenly and he couldn't help but look angrily at Tan Yue beside him.
Xu Xian suddenly realized that he was right. Tan Yue said that after his master finished this transaction, he would steal the money and fly away with the woman. At that time, they only thought that this was referring to Tongzhen Guan's assassination of the woman, but they did not expect that, It is actually related to Bao Gong!
No wonder this woman became confused and frightened when she heard the words "Bao Gong's Mansion" mentioned by Bai Yutang.
Bai Yutang let go of his hand, stood up with his knees up, glanced at Tan Yue and chuckled: "There should be no need to hide it for your master now, right?"
"..." Tan Yue froze in place, with a look of despair on her face.
After a while, Zhan Zhao held the giant sword and looked at Tan Yue and Yu Xiang sitting by the bed with a cold expression.
Next to him, Xu Xian followed Bai Yutang's plan and stared at Tan Yue silently, using his strong body to put psychological pressure on him.
Bai Yutang found a chair, sat in front of the two of them, looked at them and said calmly: "Tell me what's going on."
Tan Yue hesitated and sighed softly: "The matter has come to this, I have nothing to say. I just hope that after I confess, you can let me and Yuxiang fly away, and don't stop us..."
As soon as these words came out, Yuxiang's delicate body trembled slightly, and she couldn't help but glance at Bai Yutang's handsome face.
Zhan Zhao sneered, drew his sword, and said coldly: "Now that things have come to this, you still want to bargain?"
Tan Yue's heart trembled, and he gritted his teeth, planning to fight with death, but when he met Zhan Zhao's murderous eyes, the already weak defense in his heart instantly collapsed.
"...It's Taishi Pang."
Tan Yue lowered her head and said dejectedly: "Half a month ago, Taishi Pang found someone to pull the strings and invited my master to go to his house to assassinate Mr. Bao."
"My master has the magic of Nightmare, and he always hits the target with perfect accuracy. If he wants to harm someone, he only needs to make a small figure out of peach wood, write his name Nian Geng on it, put it in a bottle with dirty blood, and perform it on the altar. In this way, it only takes seven days, then People will die from anger..."
Master Pang...
Zhan Zhao's heart suddenly dawned, and he immediately clenched his sword tightly, a cold light flashing in his eyes: "It turns out it's him!"
