On this day, the Rongguo Mansion was about to help Jia Mu return to her hometown. Thieves entered the Tiejian Temple where the spirit was resting. Feng Ziying brought Jia Cong here. Jia Cong turned into hiding thieves and catching thieves again, looking for people with a serious face.
Questioning: the general who led the army, the soldiers who were knocked unconscious and had their armor taken away, the abbot in the temple and the monks who kept vigil at night, those who kept vigil from other families, those who put incense and candles in the Jia family, and Jia Baoyu.
Jia Baoyu frowned and said, "I don't know anything. I was quite scared last night."
Jia Cong said: "I heard from Brother Feng and the people below that Brother Baoyu is quite calm."
Baoyu said: "That's just a pretense. We can't let anyone disturb our ancestors."
Jia Cong sighed: "I know your temper. It's not easy to pretend to be calm. My ancestors' love for you has not been in vain." Suddenly, an owl hooted out of nowhere. After thinking for a while, he said, "How about we
Go and talk to our ancestor. Although she is no longer here, if her soul is not far away, we brothers will feel more at ease. Brother Feng said that this thief is a very powerful gangster."
Baoyu's face turned pale with fright, and his hands trembled a bit. Jia Congnai helped him into the mourning hall, and sent the people below him to stay away, saying: "We brothers are talking a lot." But he couldn't hear what he said.
He felt relieved when a cat meowed from somewhere. He pulled Baoyu and whispered, "You can talk now." He winked.
Baoyu looked at him and told the truth in a low voice.
Last night while he was sleeping, he suddenly heard someone shouting "Second Master Bao". Before he could get up, the man had already opened his tent, which frightened Jia Baoyu so much that he froze and dared not move. The man said to him: "
Let two people hide in your bed, and someone is chasing us." The voice sounded like an old man.
At this moment, there was a rustling sound from the other side of the window, as if someone had come in and asked in a trembling voice: "Who are you?"
Then I heard someone whisper: "Brother Bao Er, it's me."
Jia Baoyu immediately recognized that it was Lin Daiyu's voice, and dimly saw her walking over. He was so shocked that he almost didn't shout out! After holding back, he asked, "Sister Lin, is that you?"
"Yes." Lin Daiyu said, "I don't have time to explain now, so I ask Brother Baoyu to help me and cover up for us. There are soldiers chasing us."
Baoyu nodded repeatedly: "How to cover it up?"
Daiyu said: "I can't think about anything at the moment. The two of us are hiding on your bed, each pulling a corner of the quilt to flatten it. Someone will come to check later, so you just hang down the curtain and put on your shoes slowly. Your house is simple.
, they are the men of Rongguo Mansion again, they will leave after just one look."
Baoyu immediately blushed. Fortunately, the room was dark and no one could see him. He lowered his head and said, "My sister is the one who makes the decision."
The old man just now smiled and said, "How did you come up with this idea?"
Daiyu smiled and said, "I heard it from Cong'er's Green Forest Commentary when I was little."
At this moment, the other two people had arrived in front of the bed, but the window was open. Baoyu stood on tiptoe and put on her shoes. Daiyu got on the bed first, lay down with her head backward, leaned inside, and held the back of her head with both hands.
A man came up, leaned forward, and grabbed the first two corners of the quilt. The old man said slowly, "This monk's bed is so small." Baoyu immediately felt uncomfortable and turned to the side.
There was no time to say anything. Hearing noises outside, the two innocent men shouted softly, "Follow the plan!" and flew out of the window. After a while, someone came in with a torch to search. Baoyu was frightened.
He was trembling all over, and it was more difficult for the boy to put on his shoes. Sure enough, he had already finished the search and left before he was finished. When Jia Baoyu came back to put on his cloak, Daiyu and others were no longer there. Later, it was the soldier
After knocking Baoyu unconscious, Lin Daiyu was transformed out of nowhere.
Jia Cong's head went numb after hearing this - to eliminate the servants guarding the incense candles and to knock out Jia Baoyu, 90% of the time Prime Minister Lin was hiding between Jia Mu's coffin. The coffin has been sealed now, and there is a place outside.
The first-level coffin was large and had not yet been sealed. Since she had nowhere to hide and was willing to hide there, it is obvious that the things she took away were very important. I am afraid that Feng Ziying also secretly ordered someone to move the lid of the coffin.
Checking. After thinking for a moment, Jia Cong said: "I don't know what she did at this moment, but she must be doing something reasonable. Brother Bao Er can just pretend that he doesn't know anything."
Baoyu nodded slightly: "Of course." After a while, he couldn't help but ask, "What did Sister Lin do?"
Jia Cong frowned and said, "I wish I knew." He cursed in his heart that these people didn't even leave a hint.
Afterwards, he found a few people to ask questions, and after a long time of talking and not practicing, the sky gradually became brighter. Someone from the Rongguo Mansion's outpost came outside. Jia Cong felt as if he had seen a savior! There was something unexpected inside.
There was Jarvis. He quickly stepped forward and pulled him to ask what was going on.
Jarvis put on a sullen face, with a smile on his eyes and brows. He didn't look like someone who had run away all night without a wink. He said, "It's hard to explain in words."
Jia Cong snorted: "What did you take? Situ Pan is going crazy."
"I don't know yet."
"ah?"
"Prime Minister Lin hadn't opened it when I came here," Jarvis said. "When I went to get it at first, I didn't know what it was, but I just thought it was important."
Jia Cong simply wanted to vomit blood: "You don't even know what it is! You guys think it's not lively enough!"
Jarvis' face darkened: "We are angry. Prime Minister Lin fell into their hands, and they won't be able to vent their anger until they are aggrieved."
"...Okay, then you should first figure out what it is." Jia Cong pursed his lips, "How old is it?"
Jarvis said: "It's as big as a fist and packed in an old camphor wood box."
"Where's Sister Lin? Will she come to see the deceased today?"
"She is opening the box." Jarvis said, "It will come later whether it is opened or not. I have already sent someone to Rongguo Mansion to tell me. I just said that I met a very beautiful one when I was playing in the back mountain a few days ago.
Snow Fox, she ran after the fox and lost her way. She was stuck in the mountains and couldn't get out. Yesterday, she got guidance from a kind person and found a way out. She returned to the city last night. Because she remembered that she hadn't gone home for a long time, last night
She then went back to the Lin family to have a look - it's true. The Lin family we went back to yesterday was the city we left from the mansion in the south of the city in the evening."
Jia Cong smiled and said: "The tunnel we co-authored has become a great cheating weapon for us."
Since it was inconvenient to talk too much, Jarvis took care of the matter of Jia's mother's resurrection. Jia Cong then looked for someone to talk to. After a while, he found a deserted place and looked around, and heard Chen Ruijin talking somewhere.
"Are you looking for me?" When Jia Cong turned his head, she quietly appeared behind him. Jia Cong then pulled her and bit her ear for a while. Chen Ruijin nodded and said, "You should also pay attention. Situ Pan has a little girl hidden around him.
Talk about four masters."
Jia Cong was startled: "Didn't they hear me talking to Brother Baoyu?"
Chen Ruijin glanced at him: "Didn't you hear my code?"
Jia Cong chuckled and said, "I heard it, I don't know if it was you or someone else."
"When you were outside, there was a man on the locust tree outside the main hall. Later, when you two went in, he left without following you."
Jia Cong wiped his sweat and said, "What luck! If we send him away, he will probably have to follow."
Chen Ruijin said with a smile: "Of course. Fortunately, Jia Baoyu is usually timid, so no one suspects him."
Jia Cong said: "This is weird. If there is no shortage of experts around Situ Pan, why is there no one guarding the most important things?"
Chen Ruijin said: "Because there are agencies guarding it."
"He is a cautious person." Jia Cong said, "I'm afraid there are other reasons. Forget it, I'll ask Sister Lin later." The two of them went their separate ways.
After waiting for another hour and a half, Chen Ruijin came back and quietly gave a signal to Jia Cong. Jia Cong breathed a sigh of relief. After a while, he went to the mourning hall and clapped his hands: "Everyone, come here. I
I have something to say."
Who doesn’t know that Third Master Cong is the lower realm of Nezha’s Third Prince? The servants in the mansion immediately dropped their belongings and crowded around. Jia Cong cleared his throat, stood on a chair, and said, "Everyone has worked hard these days.
Yes. Something happened in the temple last night, so the matter is confidential and important, and the stakes are high. People from our house will be here soon. I know that the people in our house are the most gossipy. It’s just that
Everyone needs to know what to say and what not to say. Even though you didn’t know anything about last night, you are not allowed to tell anyone about it after you return home. You can’t say it to your relatives and friends, and you can’t say it to your masters either.
..." He kept talking nonsense like this for a long time. After talking for a full quarter of an hour, Nai shouted with a dark face, "Do you understand?"
"I understand—"
"Do you remember?"
"Don't worry, Third Master, remember -"
"Very good." Jia Cong glanced down coldly and across everyone's face, scaring the group of people so much that they dared not express their anger. After a long while, he said, "If I heard something I shouldn't have heard, find out."
Whoever talks loosely, don't blame me for being harsh."
"Third Master, I don't dare to..."
Jia Cong nodded: "Don't dare to be nice. Go ahead and do your work." Then everyone dispersed quietly.
Jia Cong turned around and came out to the abbot's room. Situ Pan was still waiting here. When he saw him, he asked, "Do you have any clues?"
"No, there's no clue at all. It's just a group of innocent people who don't know what's going on outside." Jia Cong said, "But there is a doubt. What are the thieves doing here at Tiejian Temple?"
Feng Ziying said: "Because I have nowhere to go."
Jia Cong shook his head and said: "The more barren mountains and ridges, the better to hide. Last night you said it was just because there was a woman among the thieves who didn't know how to fight. This cannot be the reason why they chose the Iron Kan Temple. Although the Iron Kan Temple
It's big, but it's nothing in front of the army. If there is an army, even the palace can be searched cleanly, let alone the temple? Especially the master in charge of this temple seems to me to be a decent man, and he doesn't look like he would dig a cellar to hide thieves.
.”
The presiding master chanted "Amitabha".
"I'm sorry, Master, I didn't mean to tempt you." Jia Cong said apologetically, "If they hide in private houses and scare people, they will be forced to hide in the cellar instead of protecting their safety."
Situ Pan asked: "What do you think it is for?"
"Since the thing that the prince threw is small, they probably came here to hide it." Jia Cong said: "Check the tree holes of each tree carefully to see if there is a small hole behind each Buddha statue that can hide things. People are bigger, so it is easier to check.
"It's hard to check things out."
Situ Pan nodded and signaled to Feng Ziying; Feng Ziying immediately led people out for a detailed inspection. Jia Cong shouted from behind: "Hurry up! Our family is coming soon!"
Situ Pan glanced at him: "Why do I think you are already confident?"
Jia Cong smiled bitterly and said: "I thought about it for a long time and came up with a weird idea. Now I just hope that I am wrong."
Situ Pan said: "Let's talk and listen first."
Jia Cong was silent for a moment, with a hesitant look on his face, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "The more important things you steal, the more prepared you will be. Therefore, I think it is not accidental that the thief chose Tiejian Temple." He didn't.
After speaking for a while, he closed his eyes and said, "It's not an accident that I chose this day."
Situ Pan immediately said: "According to your wishes, they sincerely chose the day when your grandmother wakes up?"
Jia Cong nodded: "Your Majesty has lost something very important. Sending it out of Yan State is probably more difficult than climbing to heaven. As I said before, with an army, searching a temple is much easier than searching a palace."
It's easy and tight - it's not difficult to search the Yan Kingdom." He took another breath and clenched his fists, "Probably, only my grandmother's coffin can be left safely."
There was a gasping sound in the room.
Jia Cong closed his eyes tightly: "The thing is not big. The ancestor's coffin has been sealed, and the coffin was sealed when preparing for burial. The coffin is much larger than the coffin, and it is enough to hold a small thing."
After a while, Situ Pan said: "Feng Ziying, we sent someone to open the coffin lid last night." Jia Cong immediately opened his eyes, his face full of anger. Situ Pan sighed, "Don't blame him, he can't do anything."
Jia Cong stayed for half a day and said: "Then let's hope for the tree hole." He couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
Next to Situ Pan, a eunuch in his forties stood up and kowtowed to Jia Cong and said, "Mr. Jia, please forgive the offence. The thieves are very cunning, and they were very messy last night. This thing is very important. If they can't protect it, they can't think of Feng."
Your Excellency does not dare to let go of any part, and may wait until Lord Feng has finished checking the coffin of the old lady before putting anything in."
Jia Cong's face darkened, and he was in a daze for half a day. He looked at Situ Pan and begged: "Is it okay to wait until Brother Feng finishes checking the Buddha statue in the tree cave?"
Situ Pan hurriedly said: "Of course you can. If it is not absolutely necessary, why would I bother to disturb the old lady?"
The eunuch bowed to Jia Cong again: "Mr. Jia is righteous."
Jia Cong smiled bitterly and said: "How can I be righteous? Firstly, I know I can't escape; secondly, I'm afraid that if I really hide something inappropriate with my ancestor, she will become even more uneasy. Although I don't like her,
She is my biological grandmother after all."
Situ Pan nodded: "You have always been a sensible person." Everyone waited for a long time. Feng Ziying came back, her face turned pale, she shook her head and was speechless. The eunuch went to him and whispered a few words. Feng Ziying's eyes flashed.
Liang, looked at Jia Cong; Jia Cong lowered his head. Feng Ziying hugged Situ Pan, turned around and strode out like a wind.
This time, after not waiting long, Feng Ziying came back like a gust of wind, with her face flushed and tears streaming down her face: "Your Majesty! I'm here!"
Situ Pan stood up with excitement: "Here?!"
Feng Ziying said with a tearful voice: "Yes! It's placed on the old lady's coffin in plain sight!"
Jia Cong took a deep breath and chanted in unison with the abbot and master: "Amitabha!" (..)
