Chapter 26 More Practice

the other side.

Jinli, who had repaired the curtains, waited in the small courtyard for the early Ming Dynasty to pick up the meal, but seeing that it was time to go to the shrine to change the candlelight, Jinli had to pour himself a big mouthful of cold water, and ate one before eating The small apples from the small kitchen were used as pads for the belly, and then they changed into clean servant clothes and walked towards the shrine.

Along the way, Imari walked a very familiar path, but there was still no one in sight.

The ancestral hall was as cold as ever, except for the sound of her own footsteps, it was as silent as if forgotten by the world.

But just as Jinli stepped into the gate of the shrine, his figure suddenly became imperceptibly stiff.

someone!

Imari's pupils shrank suddenly, and the breath around him tensed up at that moment.

But even so, Imari continued to walk in calmly, and began to check the burning of the last round of candles.

The people hiding in the shadows don't seem to be the people in the temple.

Because that person did not come out openly at the moment she stepped into the ancestral hall, but flashed to the high beams of the ancestral hall and hid very quickly. Judging from such evasive behavior alone, Imari concluded that The other party will not be a person from the temple.

Imari couldn't help thinking about the other party's purpose of sneaking into the shrine.

Although she has only been working in the shrine for a few days, based on her professional habits, she has checked the environment of the shrine one by one. It can be said that every corner of the shrine is in her memory.

She was sure that there was no such thing as money in the shrine hall except for the spirit tablet.

So, this person just came here to hide for a while?

Jinli's mind changed slightly.

Well, if that's the case, she can pretend she doesn't know anything, as long as she continues her work and leaves quietly.

Imari quickly went to the backyard to fetch a basin of water, and then started her new round of work.

There are a lot of candles in the shrine. Although each candle has a special candlestick for placement, sometimes the candle wax still drips from the candlestick onto the table, so at this time, a special candlestick is needed. The small knife scraped off the candle wax on the table.

The side of the shrine.

Imari squatted in front of a wooden table corner, quietly handling the dried candle wax on the table with downcast eyes.

Someone on the beam is still hidden in the darkness high above, full of patience.

Time seemed to stand still at this second, except for the slight flickering of the candlelight in front of the sacred wooden card, everything seemed to be at peace at that moment.

until----

"Are you the orphan girl who just entered the shrine?" A male voice suddenly rose from the huge shrine.

Ye Xi, who was originally hiding on the beam of the house, was leaning against a red stone pillar at this moment, looking at the girl who was carefully cleaning the candle wax on the wooden table not far away with slightly raised eyebrows, a pair of sparkling purple fox eyes There was a bloodthirsty excitement in it.

"What's your business?" In front of the wooden platform, Jinli lit the red candles one after another in front of him, without looking back with a calm face.

When Ye Xi saw this, surprise flashed across his eyes, and he paused, as if thinking of something, the corner of his mouth suddenly smiled, "You already knew I was here?"

If it were someone else, when they heard his sudden question, they would subconsciously startle or scream outright, but the girl in front of her was not only calm, she didn't even turn her head, as if she knew what he was doing for a long time. Average here.

Tsk, didn't the information he got say that the target of this mission was a rabbit?

When did the rabbit become so courageous? ?

"You don't hide well, you need to practice more." Imari's evaluation was not polite at all.
