Don't worry." Mu Yunhan frowned: "Is Elder De okay? We just saw a black shadow going over the roof from here."
Old Man Gu said: "The injury is not serious... No matter what the shadow is, we don't care, just keep an eye on the person."
Suddenly someone shouted again: "Oh no, the temple is in trouble! The temple is in trouble!"
Mu Yunhan looked up and saw thick smoke and fire rising into the sky from where the outermost temple stood, which was particularly eye-catching in the darkness of wind and snow.
Old Man Gu looked pale and fell to his knees: "How could this happen? It's an ominous sign..."
Mu Yunhan pushed him hard: "What an ominous sign, it's obviously a man-made disaster! Go and look at Ah Lin!"
The facts today are too strange. How could such things happen one after another?
Just by looking at old man Gu's performance, you can tell that the fire in the temple will cause such a big disturbance in the Zhao Kingdom!
Old Man Gu was hesitant. He wanted to take care of Gu Fenglin, but he couldn't let go of Mu Yunhan, for fear that something would happen to her.
Mu Yunhan said: "I'll be fine, go and take care of Ah Lin!"
"Go ahead, I'm here." Gu Yilan was supported by Elder Wu and walked slowly from the courtyard gate with a cold expression: "I will take good care of them."
Old Man Gu and Mu Yunhan looked at each other and ran out resolutely.
"Cough cough cough..." A gust of cold wind blew by, whipping up a gust of snow mist and rushing toward Gu Yilan.
Gu Yilan coughed so hard that she bent down and shrank into a shrimp.
Mu Yunhan sighed: "Please sit over here."
Elder Wu glanced at her and said that she was quite sensible.
Gu Yilan sat down by the charcoal basin and ordered Da Mi: "There is a little girl over there. Could you please tell her to guard her at the entrance of the courtyard. As long as any female family members come, please come here. Let's all gather together.
The place is convenient for attack and defense."
In just a few words, he was out of breath, speaking intermittently, and seemed to be struggling.
Elder Wu said: "Just say a few words and leave this matter to Miss Mu Da. She has thousands of people in charge, so she can't fail to handle this matter."
Mu Yunhan smiled: "That's true. If I understand correctly, the priest is responsible for the safety of the third courtyard?"
Gu Yilan nodded.
Mu Yunhan then ordered Da Mi: "Do as the adults say. Go and see if there are any women in the house, and let them come over. But... people you don't know are not allowed to enter the house."
This is also to prevent assassins from mixing in and harming themselves.
Da Mi took the order and went out, and soon brought back several women and maids. Mu Yunhan asked them each to get a copper basin, stand in several directions, and knock the basin if they saw anything inappropriate.
At this time, there was chaos outside, and the noise even drowned out the sound of the wind and snow.
Someone vaguely shouted again: "Assassin! The assassin has gone to the second master's room!"
"The assassin went to the eldest son's room!"
However, the firelight and smoke in the periphery did not seem to decrease.
Mu Yunhan looked at Gu Yilan: "Alin and the others have already started?"
Otherwise, it would be impossible for Gu Fenglin not to stop visiting her, nor to hide in the house all the time without showing up.
Gu Yilan was surprised by her acuity and said calmly: "It's preparation. Before entering the hall to accept the selection, you must first take a medicinal bath to open all the pores, refresh your mind, and communicate with the world..."
"The medicinal materials used are very precious...calculating the time, they should just start." (To be continued)
