Chapter 75: Wood growing in the courtyard is like being trapped
"I advise you not to meddle in other people's business."
At the foot of Jianping Mountain, Cui Xiao listened to Junior Brother Chen who came to look for him and warned calmly: "Everyone is responsible for his own spiritual path. If you don't have the ability to save others, don't show off. The affairs of their Danyang Sect,
It’s up to them to figure it out themselves.”
The sects, especially the sects in the southern area of Cheung Chau, will not accept defecting disciples from other sects.
Otherwise, making a bad start will cause countless troubles between sects.
Chen Mou cupped his fists to receive instruction.
He understands what Senior Brother Cui means. If you have the ability, come forward. If you don't have the ability, keep your mouth shut.
He has an incredible ability to support Mo Fu, and any foundation builder in the city can pin him down to death.
"Is there really no other way?"
Chen Mou did not give up and continued to ask with a stern look on his face.
Cui Xiao smiled and shook his head, "There is nothing we can do."
If someone else gets entangled with him, he will chop it away with one finger and roll it back as far as it goes.
In fact, there was a way, it all depended on manpower. He didn't want Chen Mou to get into trouble with other sects, not to mention that Junior Brother Chen would stay in Fangshi for several years, and he couldn't keep watch all the time.
From the bottom of his heart, he admired Junior Brother Chen's loyalty for his friends.
Speaking of which, it's rare for someone to pester him to come up with ideas.
Chen Mou sighed, cupped his hands, turned around and walked out. He would talk to Mo Fu again in the evening. If it didn't work out, he could help Mo Fu find a chance to escape. If there was no chance, he could create one, even if it caused a commotion in the city.
No trouble is spared.
He will arrange the two maids, Mao'er and Dou'er later.
"Don't do anything stupid."
Cui Xiao watched his junior brother go up the slope and reminded him emphatically.
"Don't worry, as a smart person like me, how could I do stupid things?"
Chen Mou turned around and answered with a smile.
He is cowardly and timid, and cherishes his life very much, but sometimes he gets into trouble and is hopeless.
"If anything happens, send me a summons in time."
Cui Xiao rarely gets advice from her mother-in-law.
Chen Mouyang raised his hand to indicate that he knew.
…
To the east of Fang City, there are large areas of regular spiritual fields and spiritual orchards, which spread out for twenty miles.
Now the spiritual rice is about to mature, and the entire spiritual field is bright and yellow. Under the slanting sun, the autumn wind blows, the golden waves roll, and the fragrance of rice floats far away.
Four monks in blue and white robes all have an alchemy cauldron embroidered on their left chests. A round sun rises behind the cauldron. Among them, the imposing middle-aged man in white robes has a silver alchemy cauldron embroidered on it.
The other three were embroidered with white graphics, and the four of them went back and forth to explore the small field that had dried up for a long time.
Hou Longyuan, the manager of Lingtian in Fang City, had gray hair and turned his head to look at a monk in green clothes who flew outside the formation from a distance.
He walked out of the spiritual field, listened to the monk in green whisper a few words, and waved his hand to let the monk who reported the news go down.
"Fourth brother, that boy is restless. He is looking for brokers in the market to find out about the power of the He family, the Hao family and the Wu family. My people are dragging him around in the teahouse, saying that they can give him detailed information in the evening."
Hou Longyuan walked back to the middle-aged man and whispered back.
The middle-aged man is the only spiritual cultivator in the Hou family who has perfected the Foundation Establishment Realm. He rubbed a few rice grains that were not yet fully ripe in his hands and said with a smile: "Based on my many years of spiritual cultivation experience, that boy named Mo Fu should be
I have mastered a new spiritual planting technique, which can increase the harvest and spiritual energy content of spiritual rice by 20%. If it is used to cultivate top spiritual rice, it will be amazing."
Throwing away the crushed rice in his hand, the middle-aged man said to the other two young men following him: "Hou An, Hou Yi, you guys are going to run over at night and pry open the kid's mouth. We must get the spirit in his hand."
Don’t kill the secret book of planting, it’s still useful if you keep it.”
It is no wonder that the common man was so ruthless as he was pregnant with the jade.
"yes!"
The two of them accepted the order, walked out of the Lingtian formation, and headed towards Fangshi.
Hou Longyuan smiled and handed over his hands: "Congratulations to Fourth Brother on getting a new spiritual plant secret book. Breaking through and becoming an elixir is just around the corner!"
The middle-aged man patted the shoulder of his cousin, who looked a generation older than him, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I have benefited from it and I will never forget your contribution."
Hou Longyuan laughed so hard that he couldn't straighten his waist. He flattered and thanked him repeatedly, and asked for instructions: "Fu Yin, the one who tipped off the news, is recovering from his injuries at home and is still waiting to receive his reward."
"It's a very important matter. I don't want irrelevant people to know about it. You can do whatever you want."
The middle-aged man walked onto Tiankan Road and didn't mind the mud on his boots at all.
"I understand, fourth brother please."
Hou Longyuan smiled and nodded. He already knew exactly what to do.
Occasionally, there will be evil cultivators in the city, and some monks, even outer disciples, will die. This is normal. As long as the city doesn't make a big deal out and pursue the case, you won't be able to get a few blisters.
Outer disciples without backers are just bigger ants.
…
Chen Mou returned to the courtyard, drank a pot of tea, read the hour book for another time, got up and walked out of the main room.
The dusk clouds travel thousands of miles, and tomorrow will be another beautiful autumn weather.
Ying'er from the kitchen grabbed Xu'er, who was about to greet the young master warmly. He bent his fingers and tapped Xu'er lightly on a chestnut, and whispered a lesson: "Young master is thinking about something, so don't go around and make noise in front of him. Let's take it seriously."
As a maid, you have to be very discerning about when to appear and when to disappear, and you have to do it just right. Didn’t the nanny in the Yalou teach you?"
Xu'er rubbed her forehead and laughed innocently: "I taught you, but I forgot."
Ying'er showed the courage of a lady and raised his finger as if to knock. The little boy was so frightened that he hid behind Han'er and warned: "From now on, don't come in front of the young master if you have nothing to do. Be careful to make the young master unhappy and I won't want you anymore."
"
Han'er always followed Ying'er's footsteps, turned around and followed up with a last-ditch blow to scare him: "You're so thin and small, what are you doing blindly?" He poked his flat chest with his finger.
"Sister Ying'er, sister Han'er, I won't mess with you next time."
Xu'er covered her chest and backed away repeatedly.
She decided to have an extra bowl at night.
Chen Mou opened the courtyard door, walked out and closed the door. He came to Mo's house next door, knocked on the door and said, "It's me, has Master Mo returned to the house?"
There were footsteps in the yard, and Shu'er responded: "My master hasn't come back yet."
Opening the courtyard door, Shu'er bowed and saluted, "Mr. Chen, why don't you go sit down in the main room and have a rest. I'll make you a pot of tea. I'm out on business, and I'll probably be back soon."
Chen Mou glanced around the courtyard. There was smoke rising from the kitchen, flowers and plants were planted in the courtyard, and a peach tree half a man tall growing in front of the east room. It was the only remaining fruitful seedling planted by Mo Fu with the core of a newly cultivated spiritual peach.
Tree means wood.
The long courtyard with a single tree looks like the word "trapped".
He once advised Mo Fu to move the peach tree out of the yard. It doesn't hurt to believe in Feng Shui.
Mo Fu also said that he was too imaginative, and he was probably frightened by what he said. Later, he changed his mind and said that moving the trees in winter would not affect the growth of the peach trees.
"No, wait until he returns home and ask him to come over. I will talk to him about something."
Chen Mou did not enter the door. After explaining, he turned around and walked back to his home.
As a result, after dinner, it was dark and Mo Fu didn't come to the door.
Chen Mou was walking in the yard and saw the half-circle moon appearing in the east. He began to think wildly. Could it be that Mo Fu was detained by Steward Hou?
He walked out of the house again, came to Mo Mansion, knocked on the courtyard door, and raised his voice:
"Is Mr. Mo at home?"
Didn't get any response this time.
Chen Mou's raised right hand froze in the air, his heart sank, and two gusts of cold air rushed along the soles of his feet to the top of his head. There was a creepy tremor all over his body, but it was not nervousness or fear.
Something big happened!
He underestimated Steward Hou's unscrupulous evil intentions and could not wait even one day longer.
