Thinking of this, Xiuying decided to ask Liu Xianglian for clarification first, and then make the next step.After comforting the second sister a few more words, she came out to look for Liu Xianglian.

When she came to the yard outside, she realized that several people had disappeared; under the setting sun, she could only see the grass was overgrown all around, and the trees in the yard that had been in disrepair for many years were growing wantonly, with luxuriant branches and leaves, but the branches were swaying. It was very cold, and there were a few big black-winged and white-backed birds in the middle. They were quiet, and they were not afraid to see people approaching. They flapped their wings occasionally, and stared at her with dark eyes, which made people Terrified.

Rao Xiuying was courageous and felt goosebumps, so she hurried back to the room where the second sister was, "Sister, I will live with you tonight; if there is any noise outside, we don't need to go out, just stay here gone."

The second sister was leaning on the wooden couch and looking at the inscriptions on the armrest, and she was very happy when she heard the words, "It's just right, Yinger, you can read more characters than I do, take a look, the characters don't look like characters, and the pictures don't look like paintings. But it’s so pretty, what do you think it is?”

Xiu Ying leaned over to take a look, and saw some unknown symbols engraved on the armrest of the wooden couch, circled and dotted, with smooth lines. This seems to be a kind of writing?But this kind of text is not within the scope of her cognition, maybe it is a kind of graphic text that has disappeared in history?

"I don't know either, maybe even this wooden couch is a good thing, or an antique?" Suying looked at it seriously again, and then said with a smile: "Don't worry about it, let's go to bed early tonight, it's just during the day I soaked enough in the water, and I didn’t even have to take a bath.” Then I asked my second sister, “Have you eaten since you woke up? Are you hungry?”

The second sister was about to say something, but her stomach started to growl. The two sisters laughed. After tossing in the water for a long time, it would be a lie to say that they were not hungry.So Ying asked the second sister to stay in the house, "You wait, I'll go get them something to eat."

When Xiu Ying came to the wasteland outside the door again, the sun had already set, and the sunset in the distance streaked across the sky like red blood threads; only then did she realize that there were more and more birds of this kind on the nearby trees, and there were many more. The young master was flying over from a distance, but he couldn't hear a bird call.Seeing Liu Xianglian standing at the dilapidated water pavilion looking out over the lake from a distance, Xiuying hurried over and asked from a long distance, "Brother Liu, what are you doing here?"

Seeing her coming, Liu Xianglian hurriedly made a silent gesture, so Xiuying walked over on tiptoe and asked him in a low voice, "What's the matter with these birds?"

Liu Xianglian did not answer this question, but pointed to the distance and asked her: "There are a few small boats parked there, have you seen them?"

Xuan Ying looked around, but only saw the faint shadow of a water garden, so she shook her head and said, "I can't see it. Which prince's mansion is there too?"

Liu Xianglian hummed, but didn't tell her who it was, and asked again, "Didn't I tell you to hide in the house and not come out? Is there something wrong?"

"Oh, my sister and I are hungry and want to find something to eat; you must have been here for a day or two, where do you get food?" Xuying asked naturally.

"Where is there food in this shabby place? Let's go, I'll take you to the boat to get it." Liu Xianglian said and walked to the other side of the water pavilion. Their boat was parked behind the water pavilion, and they couldn't see it from the shore. of.

Although the pedals were placed, there was still a drop nearly one person high from the dilapidated windows of the water pavilion to the boat. Xiuying stood on the window sill, hesitating and not daring to jump down. Liu Xianglian had already jumped onto the boat first. In this situation, she stretched out her hand to pick her up. After thinking for a while, Xiuying held his hand and jumped down with her strength. Unexpectedly, she lost her footing and almost fell into the water. Liu Xianglian hurriedly hugged her. stopped her.

Both of them were stunned, and Xuan Ying was in a hurry to push him away, but when he saw Fu Shan coming out of the cabin, seeing the two hugging each other, he coughed lightly, and went back into the cabin.

The two looked at each other, Xiuying blushed, Liu Xianglian was also a little embarrassed, and hurriedly followed in, "Master, we didn't..."

"Well, okay, I know." Fu Shan seemed a little embarrassed, "I saw the boat shaking for a while, so I came out to take a look; by the way, I asked you to observe the movement over there, they Are you here?"

"It's getting late, and I can't see very clearly; but even Junior Sister Xuan has seen it, and there are many of those birds flying over, and more and more, but there is no one in sight." Liu Xianglian hurriedly stepped forward and said.

"From this point of view, the time should be about the same." Fu Shan said and stood up, "I should go there too. You don't have to follow me this time, you are protecting your junior sister, on this boat, or here Near the water pavilion, and those courtyards are all fine, don’t go too far.” He stood up and walked out of the cabin.

"Hey, master!" Liu Xianglian hurriedly followed, "Let me follow you? In case something happens, you have more helpers."

Fu Shan smiled when he heard the words, "No need, they can't do anything to me."

Hearing the conversation between the two, although Xiuying didn't understand why, she hurried forward and said: "Master, let Senior Brother Liu follow you, I don't mind. I'll get some food here and leave, and I'll leave later at night." Stay with sister, we won't come out."

Liu Xianglian glanced at Xuying gratefully. At this moment, she felt how precious an independent and brave woman is. At least she won't drag her back by humming, and she will never ask more questions.

Wrapped a bag of paper and set it on fire, it was still warm, and Xiuying didn't know where they got it on board, Liu Xianglian sent her to the yard, and confessed, "Don't worry, Master said, it's nothing serious; you may want to Stay here for a few days, and at noon tomorrow, someone will bring you food, and after this period of time has passed, we can leave."

When night fell, the second sister had already fallen asleep, but Xiuying quietly got up again.With so much going on during the day, of course she couldn't sleep.Looking outside, it seems that the moonlight is very bright, and the chirping of night insects and birds are heard from time to time.For some reason, Xiuying became curious. She really wanted to take a look outside and see who Master and Liu Xianglian were seeing, or what they were doing.She had known for a long time that Master was actually a man of the quack. Although he came from an aristocratic family, he regarded fame and wealth as floating clouds and dust, and even disdained to spend his days in the shadow of his parents' family. He has always been a person with ideas and pursuits.

Thinking of this, Xiu Ying first leaned on the window and looked out, but naturally she couldn't see anything, so she simply quietly left the door and yard, and came to the side of the water pavilion; the master told me that she could stay here, she is Won't run around and cause trouble for them.

There is even a wooden building on the side of the water pavilion, the stairs are already a little dilapidated, and covered with dust, Xiuying can't care about that much, she climbed up the stairs carefully, and suddenly opened up in front of her eyes, but she was stunned.

I saw that behind the broken wall in the distance, a large area had been cleared out by people long ago, and several bonfires were burning, and there were people around each bonfire, some in small groups, or a dozen or dozens of people. In the light of the fire, Xuan Ying saw that these people were dressed in different clothes, but they were all sitting upright, with extremely serious expressions; moreover, like what they saw in the suburbs of Beijing that day, these people were all armed; It's just that Xiuying couldn't be sure whether these were those people from that day.Or in other words, is Fu Shan among these people?

She was wondering when she saw that the biggest fire in the middle suddenly went out, but the people around the fire, including the rest, immediately crawled over on their knees, bowed deeply to the fire, and walked. All of them are big gifts with five bodies thrown to the ground, which seems very pious.

It seems that nine times out of ten, this is some kind of cult, but I don't know why they choose to meet in this place.This is indeed a good place to discuss any illegal matters. After all, it is a deserted Wangfu Garden. There are many and large open spaces here, facing the lake on three sides, and dense trees grow on the lake. Below is a person. The weeds are so tall, so this place is very hidden, and it is not easy for people to find it; moreover, this is the inner lake of the Imperial Garden, so it is impossible to find it here by night patrol.

It's just, who has the ability to bring this group of cult members here?You know, the deserted Neiyuan Lake is also in the Royal Backyard. As long as any nearby family finds out, this group of people can't afford to go around.

Is it because the most dangerous place is the safest place?

If Fu Shan sent these people over, why would he do this?

If Fu Shan was invited by others, then what is the intention of these people to invite Fu Shan?

Xiuying thought about it for a long time, but couldn't think of a reason. She was going to see if the boats behind the water pavilion were still there, when she saw the direction Liu Xianglian was looking at during the day, and there were many boats coming. It doesn't look like one or two ships, but a large black area, and the sound of water and noise can't be heard, it seems to be moving over the lake.

Thinking of when she came here just now, Liu Xianglian had been paying attention to the boats coming in this direction, but now it was already late at night, and these boats came quietly, which was obviously not a good thing.

Should I tell Liu Xianglian immediately?But where did he and Fu Shan go?Xuan Ying looked around nervously, and found that the boat behind the water pavilion was still there, but she didn't know if there was anyone in it.Thinking of this, Su Ying decided to take another look at the ship.She went down the wooden stairs lightly, looked at the side of the ship which was one person high from the window, thought for a while, she gritted her teeth and jumped down, if she fell into the water, at worst she would swim back from the stone steps.

Fortunately, she landed on the bow smoothly, with a muffled sound, she felt her feet were numb.The ship swayed slightly, and a figure quickly jumped out from inside. When it saw it was her, it immediately rolled into the cabin with her in its arms. It was Liu Xianglian.Before Xu Ying could yell out, he covered her mouth, "Shut up!"

Then he whispered reproachfully: "Why did you come out again? Didn't you be told to stay in the yard?"

"I was worried, so I came out to watch quietly; and I followed Master's orders, and I was just near this water pavilion, and I didn't go anywhere." Shu Ying pushed him away, "What are you doing here again? Those boats you saw during the day, they have already come, do you know? Also, there are a few fires lit there, who are those people? Why do I look weird?"

"Of course I know, it's okay to tell you." Liu Xianglian said and let go of her hand, "The people by the fire, the person who released the birds during the day, and the boats coming across the other side are all people from the rivers and lakes. They have been entangled since Master came to Beijing; there are more than a dozen states and counties in the suburbs of Beijing, and there are Master's registered disciples, who are capable and prestigious in the local area. No one dares to offend The people who came here are actually the big and small leaders of the Manichaeism. If they want to entice people to join the religion, they must first select these capable people; but most of my disciples under the Wuji sect strictly abide by the sect's rules. Of course, there must be one or two stupid people who joined them, either for profit or for other reasons. Master came to the capital to clean up the sect, and we cannot let them tarnish the reputation of Wuji Sect. But These people have more or less held some positions in this Manichaeism, which has alarmed the altar masters here; they are the ones who made an appointment to negotiate here in the past few days."

"So Master is there too? Is he alone? Is he going to be okay? Didn't you say you want to be with him?" Xiuying asked anxiously, like a cannonball.

"There are many people in Wuji sect, how can I be the only one?" Liu Xianglian patted her hand reassuringly, "There are several of us brothers and sisters over there, even Huanlian is there; she is from the Western Regions , She knows a lot more about Manichaeism than we do; if the master says nothing will happen, nothing will happen, can't you trust him?"

Seeing that Xuanying was still worried, he said again: "I see, you have never seen the master's ability, if you do, you will know what a super master is, waiting for hundreds of people to do nothing to him. "

"However, these people are all eccentric. I am still afraid that Master and the others will be in danger. Moreover, those people who came by boat seem to have come from some water garden. Could it be that they are also involved with the people in the royal family? "Xu Ying suddenly remembered something, so she became nervous again.

"Over there, it's the water garden of Prince Jing's Mansion. The people who come by boat are all strange people and strangers recruited by Prince Jing's Mansion. In Prince Jing's Mansion, there are both wise and learned people, as well as thieves; and , before we came to this water garden, this was their base camp, and King Jingjing trained hundreds of water mice here; you see the boats coming over there without a sound, very weird, right? They pulled it underwater. Of course, no one else knows about these things, except we are anxious..." Liu Xianglian suddenly realized something, and quickly swallowed the second half of the sentence.

"Tell me!" Xiu Ying was listening carefully, seeing that Liu Xianglian seemed to be hiding something from her, she couldn't help being very dissatisfied, "You have said so many important things, and I don't know anyone here, and I don't know Go tell others, why do you talk about it?" King Bei Jing, this is a person who is closely related to the Jia family, and Su Ying seems to have vaguely thought of something, but the matter is fragmented, and it seems that they cannot be connected; Moreover, this King of Beijing Jing is a virtuous king!

Liu Xianglian just kept silent, and Xu Ying was dissatisfied. Anyway, the two were still sitting together, and Xuan Ying simply pinched and hit him, "Speak up! Come on, what else?"

Liu Xianglian hugged her suddenly, "Don't make trouble! It's not the time yet, I'm afraid to scare you; when the time is right, I will tell you!"

Xiuying couldn't move, but her mouth was not idle, "Let me guess? You have been elusive for the past two years, but what secret things are you doing? Who are you doing it for? Now such confidential things are covered by you I have found out, is the thing you want to do coming to an end? Feng Ziying and Beijing Jing Wang have a good relationship with the Jia family, but now he is turning against you and is going to blackmail you with me, is it because of this? This matter Is it related to the court? Who is behind you? Is it Zhongshun Palace?"

Liu Xianglian stared at her blankly, then sighed after a while, and smiled helplessly: "Forget it, I knew that you are too smart to hide anything from you. How about this, you kiss me, and I will kiss you I will tell you everything."

"Hmm. Hmm? What did you say?"

Xiuying thought she heard it wrong, she never thought that Liu Xianglian dared to tease her in such an open manner, did he become more and more courageous?

"I said, give me a kiss." Liu Xianglian said as she moved her face closer, but was pushed away by Xiuying, and said angrily, "Shameless! Where did you learn it? If you do this again, I will tell you Master!" Her face turned red, but it was not obvious at night, in this case, shouldn't she slap him to death, why would she feel shy?

"Master will be happy to hear that." As Liu Xianglian said, she suddenly turned the back of her head forcefully, but only lightly pecked her lips before letting go. The moonlight shone into the cabin, his beautiful eyes were like As bright as the stars, "From today onwards, our affairs will be settled, so don't try to escape..."

Before he finished speaking, he was elbowed hard by Xuanying, "What time is it, you are still thinking about this! Why did Master tell you to stay here? You have a mission, right? Don't delay business!"

"You cruel woman!" Liu Xianglian clutched her stomach and groaned several times. She couldn't bear it when she saw it, and she was afraid that she would hit him too hard and really hurt him, so she rubbed him for him and asked him Is there anything wrong? Liu Xianglian smiled and grabbed her hand, "Okay, okay, don't move around; I'll feel better after you rub it, let's talk about the business!"
