The man looked at Manmei in confusion, as if he didn't understand why she suddenly mentioned the monks from Yue.
Manmei didn't waste any time, she took out the pair of earrings from the sachet and showed it to him, "Someone came to see the craftsman who made these earrings, but the craftsman is dead. He said he found the bell you were holding.
What's the name of the Soul-Seizing Bell? The one who's looking for you is an eminent monk from the Yue Kingdom, named Monk Shiwen. He's very young, more than 20 years old, but he's good at martial arts, so be careful."
The man looked around first, but no one paid attention to him, so he took an earring and looked at it carefully for a while, "It's really made exactly the same, but the color and material are different."
"If it's the same, wouldn't it be necessary to make many pairs of soul-seizing bells?" Man Miao gave him a blank look, snatched her own earrings and put them back into the sachet, "You should keep this thing yourself and don't take it out. Someone
I'm looking for you, don't stupidly bump into it and die."
"Thank you, Miss Huangfu." The man clasped his hands together and said the Buddha's name.
"Okay, okay." Manmiao looked at him like this and felt that this guy still had some real abilities. He looked like a monk no matter what. "You brought your idea to the temple and even stole the tomb of another monk. You are really
Don’t be afraid of divine punishment.”
The man carried firewood, winked at Manmiao, and asked Manmiao to follow him. There was no way this man could kill her or silence her here, so Manmiao asked the guards to follow her from a distance, and went to a remote place to talk with him.
The man walked to the woodshed and said to her as he was chopping firewood, "What do we, the earth-fed people, have to fear about divine punishment? If we are afraid of divine punishment and the loss of our moral character, who would become a dirtbag?"
Besides, I didn’t steal this bell. An old crawler who went into the pit with me got caught in a trap. I fished him out and he became disabled. This is a thank you gift he gave me.
He died just after he taught me how to use it, and I don’t know the ins and outs of this thing, I just know that it’s easy to use.”
"I don't know what happened to this thing. Someone made two pairs of earrings according to this shape. Those Yue monks have been looking for this bell. When they saw someone wearing it, they chased them all the way to the Blue Country. Looking at their postures,
If you don't find it, you won't go back. You'd better be careful and don't show it out if nothing happens." Manmiao has always had a bad impression of Monk Shiwen because of the affair between Jiang Shang and Chu Xiner.
"You are enthusiastic, don't worry. I was the one who caused this, and I will definitely bear the responsibility without causing any trouble to you." The man finished chopping the firewood in a few seconds, sat on the wooden pier to rest, and wiped the
There was sweat on her forehead and she said to Manmiao, "It's strange for you, an official lady, to actually come from the Yue Kingdom to the Blue Kingdom alone."
Manmei thought about the twists and turns along the way, and her face darkened, "I did encounter some unpleasant things. Fortunately, I have a good character and can always turn disaster into good."
Suddenly he remembered something and said to him, "What's your name? I can't help but know your name when I look for you in the future, right?"
The man smiled and said, "I'm going by a pseudonym here, but what about my real name? Idiots usually don't tell people their names. My colleagues who are doing it here gave me the nickname "Earth Dragon". You can call me whatever you want.
Everything is fine.”
To be called this name by a colleague, this person must be very powerful.
"Then I'll tell you to stop being angry. If you get used to it, wouldn't it expose your identity if I call you Earth Dragon?" Manmiao quickly agreed. If she was willing to share her name, at least she would be interested in her.
With some trust, this person at least has a good heart and will not kill innocent people indiscriminately.
In such a barren place, he did not kill anyone, which shows that his character is trustworthy. This is why Manmei is willing to take risks to help him.
"I don't care what you do here, as long as you don't make too much noise. This is a thousand-year-old temple after all, and it has a lot of history. Don't rush in." Seeing that Manmiao had already told him about the matter,
It’s useless to stay for a long time and I’m ready to leave.
Before leaving, he told him, "If you need my help, you can come to me at Huangfu's house or Prince Yi's house. My name is Huangfu Jin. Just say you are a friend I met while traveling around."
The man nodded, "It's okay, I won't go looking for you."
He is very confident in himself and very self-aware. He knows that it is best to have less contact with people like him and officials. He is aware of the graceful kindness, but he will not repay the favor.
Manmei forgot about this matter after she returned. She didn't take Shiwen's words to heart. She bought this thing, and it was her business whether to wear it or not. Why did the monk just say a few words and dedicate it to the temple?
who is he?!
When she was having dinner with Lan Ting in the evening, she told him this as a funny story. Lan Ting looked at her earrings for a few times, reached out and plucked them, and heard the earrings making a crisp ringing sound. He looked left and right, "
I don’t see any mystery in it. If it is what you say, then this bell can be regarded as a strange object."
"Who knows, anyway, we don't have many opportunities to use it, and you can't use this bell to assassinate the emperor." Lan Ting is taking the route of seizing power. If he wants to secure his position, he must rely on conspiracy and conspiracy.
His spine will be poked by the historian.
The conversation changed, "How are the Queen and the Song family now? Are they still fighting hard?"
Lan Ting chuckled, "Of course there is harmony on the surface. The Song family wants to stretch out their hands to cut the meat. The Xu family doesn't just stand and watch. I'll just watch the fun."
"Let them fight. You only need to hold the military power, and ignore the rest. Political power comes from the barrel of a gun. Civilians can't accomplish anything. In the end, it is the soldiers who will resolve the battle." Looking at the emperors of the past dynasties, they can be found halfway.
Among the people who took over the throne of emperor, which one had no soldiers? Who among the Yan Wang Zhu Di and Zhao Kuangyi was a scholar?
"Talk about military power, I heard an interesting rumor." Lan Ting put down his chopsticks and picked up his wine glass. He drinks less now, and only drinks lightly. He is not as addicted to alcohol as he was when Man Miaocai came.
Manmei raised her eyebrows, gesturing for him to continue.
After he drank a glass, he sighed with satisfaction and said, "Hua Feng seems to be doing something in Li Guo."
Manmiao paused for a moment, not knowing why Lan Ting suddenly mentioned Hua Feng in a shocking way. He should know that the last thing Manmiao wanted to hear was Hua Feng's name. He had also experienced the incident at the inn.
"It's not surprising. He is helping the prince. He will definitely spare no effort to suppress the other princes." Manmiao calmed down. When she was in Li Guo, she lived in Washington for so many months. She already knew that Hua Feng was not a fuel-efficient lamp.
, not to mention that Hua Feng had taken refuge with the prince again, so his actions were too normal, but he felt that Lan Ting was making a fuss.
Lan Ting smiled, knowing that Manmei didn't like hearing about Hua Feng, so he kept silent.
