Chapter 38 The Best Choice
Ji Yunshu's expression also grew serious: "Who is it?"
Yichen shook his head: "The other party did not reveal his identity, but he does not look like an ordinary person."
Isn't this nonsense? How could ordinary people be interested in explosives?
Ji Yunshu was silent for a moment and asked, "It seems that the Taoist priest has been targeted. I'm afraid it will be inconvenient for him to continue here. Are you willing to leave with me?"
In fact, it is more convenient to study explosives in the mountains than in Zhuangzi.
But this thing is okay if it makes a small noise, but if it makes a big noise, it is hard not to attract attention.
Once Yichen's research becomes known to others, there will be countless troubles.
Zhao Shen's manor was guarded by a master like Shen Qin, and the protection was very strict, so ordinary people could not get in.
Even an extraordinary person would not dare to act rashly.
Yichen thought for a moment and said, "I need to ask Master."
Ji Yunshu said, "That's natural."
After Ji Yunshu left, Yichen saw that it was already noon and his master should have gone back, so he went to where Taoist Qingxu lived.
He was surprised to find that Taoist Qingxu was not catching up on his sleep, but was buried in his writing at the desk.
He went over to take a look and found that it was the same things he had seen in the morning.
I couldn't help but ask, "What is Master calculating? Hasn't he finished yet?"
Qingxu looked up at him for a long moment and asked, "Do you want to leave?"
Yichen scratched the back of his head and said, "Master, nothing can be hidden. When I first developed explosives, Master said that it would be a disaster if used improperly. Later, someone really heard the news and came to me, so I stopped making trouble. But the Crown Prince's wife did it for General Ji and the people in the north. I think we should try again."
Qingxu frowned and looked at the manuscript in his hand. He had been calculating for more than an hour since he met Ji Yunshu in the morning, but he still couldn't figure out her fate.
A man who couldn't even see the future.
But it will affect the overall situation of the world.
Qingxu thought of the astrological changes he had seen a month ago and sighed, "The Crown Prince's wife has a peaceful face and is certainly not someone with evil intentions. With your ability, it's inevitable that others will covet you. It's good to have her protection."
“Master…”
Yichen wanted to say something but was interrupted by Qingxu: "I'm observing the celestial phenomena. This world won't be peaceful for much longer. How can Taiqing Temple stay out of it when the time comes? The Marquis of Changxing and his wife are both unusual. You can stay with them and keep an eye on them."
After Qingxu finished speaking, he burned the manuscript on the table with a tired look, waved his hand and said, "If you go, the mountain will be quiet for a few more days."
Yichen also knew that although those people had never come again, they must still be watching him secretly.
If he wanted to continue, he had to leave Taiqing Temple.
So I made up my mind.
Ji Yunshu was not surprised by his answer.
Qingxu and Yichen, the master and disciple, are obviously not simple people. Even with them around, Taiqing Temple is still not well-known.
It is obvious that they don't want to get involved too much in the world.
But it is a crime to possess a treasure. Now that Yichen has been noticed, he is in great danger.
Not only can she protect his life, but she can also allow him to develop his own interests and hobbies, and will not use those things to harm the world.
It is his best choice at the moment.
It had only been one day since he arrived, but his goal had already been achieved. Ji Yunshu felt that he had been doing things a little too smoothly.
She should have left, but after staying for a night, she found that it was much cooler here than at the farm. Moreover, when she thought about what Zhao Shen was doing without telling her, she felt a little annoyed and didn't want to go back to see him.
Yichen was reluctant to leave suddenly, so the two of them discussed and decided to stay for a few more days before leaving.
As soon as Yichen left, Lu Ningshuang entered Ji Yunshu's yard.
Lu Ningshuang held a food box in her hand and said, "I heard that Sister was too hot at noon and didn't eat anything, so I asked the maid to make some food. Sister, please don't be disgusted."
Ji Yunshu let Bai Ling take it and said, "Thank you, sister."
Lu Ningshuang sat down in a familiar manner and asked casually, "I just saw a young Taoist priest leave my sister's place. Is there something going on?"
Ji Yunshu lazily said, "Nothing. I heard that the young Taoist priest is a good doctor, so I wanted to ask him to check on the prince's leg."
Lu Ningshuang smiled and said, "It seems that my sister still cares about the prince."
Ji Yunshu said worriedly, "It can't be helped. Who made me marry him? I don't want to be laughed at for marrying a cripple."
Lu Ningshuang tightened her grip on the handkerchief, but the smile on her face remained. She even said sympathetically, "Thank you for your hard work, Sister Ji."
Ji Yunshu seemed to not want to talk about this and asked instead, "Did Sister Lu get the talisman? When will you be back?"
Lu Ningshuang said, "I was just about to ask Sister Ji, since we came here together, why don't we go back together?"
Ji Yunshu said indifferently, "It would be great to be able to travel with Sister Lu, but that young Taoist priest said he has some things to take care of. I think it will take several days for him to leave together. I wonder if Sister Lu can wait?"
Lu Ningshuang said regretfully, "Oh, I'm worried about my mother's health. I'm afraid she won't be able to wait for a few more days."
Ji Yunshu also acted as if he was regretful.
After Lu Ningshuang left, Ji Yunshu asked Bai Ling to check the food she brought.
Bai Ling opened the food box and examined it carefully. Yin Ye said impatiently, "What on earth does this woman want to do?"
Lan Yin was also puzzled: "Yes, she comes up to us from time to time, but she doesn't insist on going with us."
Ji Yunshu looked at the dishes, they looked delicious, so he thought there was nothing wrong with them.
Judging from Lu Ningshuang's current behavior, her actions are directly due to her disdain for herself and she feels no need to hide it, not because she is stupid.
They shouldn't use such a simple and crude method as poisoning.
She smiled and said, "Perhaps her target this time is Young Taoist Master Yichen."
She just suddenly remembered that Taiqing Temple was not a very famous Taoist temple.
It was really unreasonable for Lu Ningshuang, an unmarried daughter of the prime minister's family, to come here alone without the guidance of her elders.
At first she thought the other party was coming for her.
After all, Lu Ningshuang's performance was very obvious.
But if you think about it carefully, they are all in the capital, so why not make friends with them whenever you want?
I had to come to this Taoist temple deep in the mountains.
Besides, even if Lu Ningshuang followed her, what could she do?
Bai Ling carefully checked all the food and shook his head at Ji Yunshu: "I don't see anything wrong."
Ji Yunshu was not surprised, but she didn't plan to eat it either.
This is the world of novels. Who knows if there is any colorless and odorless poison?
She cherishes her life very much.
Lu Ningshuang returned to her room, and the mask-like smile in front of Ji Yunshu instantly fell.
The maidservant beside her, Furong, shrank back and asked, "Miss, is there something wrong with the wife of the Marquis of Changxing?"
Lu Ningshuang said coldly, "What do you think is wrong with her?"
He looks like a brainless idiot, but his words are flawless.
She tried several times but didn't get any useful information.
Judging from what he just said, Ji Yunshu was actually coming for the little Taoist priest.
Before she could do anything, the other party was about to take her away.
She took a deep breath, but still couldn't calm her anger: "Since you are so ignorant, don't blame me."
