Chapter 261 Buyer’s High Requirements



Gu Beiheng and the others knew they couldn't leave now, but they didn't let Dabao and Erbao go to play next door.

Several people were sitting in the pavilion eating and talking. He stood in the pavilion and saw the abbot and the novice monks hurriedly running to the room in the backyard.

Gu Beiheng turned his head and glanced at the forest in the distance.

He put down the bamboo stick in his hand and said to Su Qi, "Qiqi, let's go for a walk in the mountains."

Su Qi understood, "I just happened to be going to the toilet. Come with me."

Dabao stood up and said with his face raised, "I'm going too."

"You kids, just find a tree root to solve the problem." Su Qi rejected her own child outright.

Dabao glanced at the tree roots with a look of despair, feeling that they were a bit irritating. "Mom, is that where I'm going?"

Xiaopang pointed to the roots of the plum tree in front of him.

"Alright."

Dabao slapped himself on the forehead, then walked back silently and buried his head in Yue Qinggang's arms.

His mother is so unreliable.

Su Qi and Gu Beiheng walked upstairs.

There are a few thatched huts hidden in the bamboo forest.

The labels of boys and girls were painted on small wooden boards and hung on the bamboos in the bamboo forest.

Gu Beiheng and Su Qi walked to the back and left from the small path hidden in the bamboo forest.

Gu Beiheng held Su Qi in his arms and jumped towards the place where there was a slight smell of blood.

A few points of ups and downs.

Came to a stone.

A man in tight clothes fell beside the rock, gasping for breath with his hands covering his chest.

Seeing Su Qi and Gu Beiheng coming over, the man raised his sword with all his might. "Who are you?"

"The enemy of my enemy is my friend, so we are your friends for the time being." Gu Beiheng used two fingers to force the sword out of his hand.

"Are you Prince Hui's enemies?"

"Old Prince Rongshan is our enemy. We simply can't stand his family." Gu Beiheng really couldn't stand their family.

Do you really want to talk about some grudge against the Gu family?

That is, Prince Rongshan's people intervened in the affairs of the Northwest Military Camp and wanted to send people in to kill several important generals of Gu Beiheng.

Replaced it with Prince Rongshan’s people.

In the end, dozens of soldiers died.

The man lying on the ground was a little confused. He couldn't stand the old Prince Rongshan and his family, so he risked his life to help him.

I always feel that this couple is a little bit not very smart.

Gu Beiheng reached out and pressed the acupoints on his body, preventing the man from moving freely.

Su Qi began to bandage his wounds. Seeing that the wounds on his body were black, she knew that he was poisoned.

He took out a Hundred Poison Pill from his purse and gave it to Gu Beiheng. Gu Beiheng threw it directly into the man's mouth and hit his chin hard. The medicine slid smoothly into his mouth.

Su Qi took out a few silver needles and began to quickly heal the old wounds in the man's body.

She took out a small bottle of pills and handed it to the man, "Take two pills a day, and I guarantee you'll be in great health in the future."

Gu Beiheng nodded again and handed the man the sword. "Someone will be here to search soon. You should leave here quickly."

The man clasped his fists towards Gu Beiheng and Su Qi:

"I'm Friday from Feiying Building. Thank you both for your help."

"Let's go."

"May I know your names, benefactors? I'll have a chance to repay you on Friday."

Gu Beiheng glanced at him and waved his hand. "No need, stop talking nonsense. Someone is coming."

Before he finished speaking, he took Su Qi in his arms and left.

Zhou Wu cleaned up the footprints of Gu Beiheng and the others beside the stone, then deliberately took a few heavy steps in the other direction and left quickly.

It was just as Yue Jiushao thought.

Mei Hai was surrounded by officers and soldiers.

The officers and soldiers questioned them one by one in the pavilions, and if there was anything wrong, someone would come and take those people away.

Many people cried and begged for mercy, saying that they were not involved.

With the principle that it is better to kill by mistake than not to kill, many people were still taken away.

Someone came forward to question Yue Jiushao and his men, and Yue Jiushao directly told the officers what had happened. He then showed them the token given by the eldest young master, along with his Dongqi Yue family identity card.

Naturally, the officers did not make things difficult for him.

He just looked at Su Qi with an inquiring look, wondering in his heart how this woman could have the guts to quarrel with Princess Jing?

Prince Hui's affairs were more important, and no one cared much about the quarrel between Su Qi and Princess Jing.

However, Gu Beiheng and his companions still could not leave Xuefeng Temple, so they were arranged to stay in a room next to Xuefeng Temple.

The night gradually deepened.

Su Qi and Gu Beiheng took the two children into the room to rest.

The two of them placed the two children in the space while the eldest and second children were asleep.

The two of them entered Xuefeng Temple again under the cover of night.

The main hall is a bit strange.

Su Qi and Gu Beiheng sneaked into the main hall.

A secret passage was discovered behind the statues of the Three Holy Ones of the West.

The two looked at each other.

Finally, he entered the secret passage.

I walked along the dark secret passage for a distance.

I heard someone talking.

Gu Beiheng looked and found that he had arrived at a quiet little courtyard.

He and Su Qi jumped onto a tree in the yard.

The flickering oil lamp swayed in the wind.

The oil lamp in the room cast the figures of the two people on the wall.

"Master, the assassin of King Hui has not been found yet. What if my father knew that we brothers were killing each other?"

"Amitabha. The brotherly bond between me and the old prince is such that I cannot stand your behavior. Prince Lian, just listen to me. I'm sending people to track down the murderer."

Prince Hui, though kindhearted, is ultimately incapable of shouldering such a heavy responsibility. "I would like to spare his life," the monk from Xuefeng Temple said, stroking his beard.

Prince Lian rolled his eyes. It was not his style to cut the grass without removing the root.

However, he didn't dare to object too much to the master's words, so he squinted his eyes and laughed, "That's natural. I just need to pull the tendons of his hands and feet."

The big monk didn't say anything.

"There is something wrong with this batch of goods. You have to be more attentive, as our buyers have very high requirements." The big monk had a string of Buddhist beads hanging around his neck, and one could tell by looking at the beads that they were of great value.

Prince Lian became serious. "Master, it's not easy to move goods these days. Yun County has been disrupted this time. I sent people to investigate but they haven't found any clues."

"They're all trash. Let the second brother take action and get rid of all those who are causing trouble."

Prince Lian smiled and handed the box to the master. It was filled with banknotes. "Thank you, master. This is what you deserve."

The master put the box away, then waved his hand to let Prince Lian leave.

"Go ahead. I'll ask the second brother to go to Yun County later."

Prince Lian walked out of the house and closed the door, then left along the secret passage that Gu Beiheng and the others had taken.

The house fell silent.

Gu Beiheng and Su Qi were clinging to the tree trunk without moving when a figure came floating over from a distance.

Su Qi felt Gu Beiheng's hand move and immediately brought him into the space.

The man who came floating in was bald, without any scars from his ordination. He looked at the tree trunk with his eagle eyes, then lowered his eyes and knocked on the door.

"Second brother?"

"It's me."

"Go to see Prince Lian tomorrow and he will tell you what's going on. You should go to Yun County."

"Yes." The second brother glanced at the yard and then left.

The great monk from Xuefeng Temple came out empty-handed. He placed a few vines and flowers at the door, then glanced at the yard.

He clasped his hands together, muttered something, and left through the secret passage.

Gu Beiheng and Su Qi left the space after a while.

The two of them looked at the house opposite at the same time. "Want to go in?"

Gu Beiheng thought for a moment and said, "Let's go in. There seem to be a lot of good things in there. I heard that this monk is a fake monk."

In Gu Beiheng's mind, a monk should be like Master Liangran.

Gu Beiheng held Su Qi in his arms and walked over. The vines were arranged in a square formation of the Five Elements and Eight Diagrams.

He and Su Qi simply went up to the roof, and wow, there were a lot of poisonous creatures crawling on the roof.

Su Qi thought about it and put all the poisonous substances into the cold storage room in the space. All the poisonous substances in the storage room disappeared, and in return the space was upgraded.

Su Qi was not worried that the space would close again.

The upgraded space won’t crash due to this poison.
