"The Qingyun Temple on Qingyun Mountain outside the city was surrounded by government officials today. They say that the young master of the wealthy Li Dashan family in the capital was murdered."
Someone left a note saying that this was because Aunt Li went to Qingyun Temple to find a ghost child to harm people.
This philanthropist, Li, immediately arrested the concubine and interrogated her. Unable to withstand the torture, the concubine confessed.
As expected, it was Aunt Li who spent a fortune to obtain a Soul-Sealing Jade.
The young master of the Li family was killed by the ghost child inside the Soul-Sealing Jade, and now the benevolent Li has reported it to the authorities.
At this moment, Qingyun Temple has been surrounded by government troops…
Zhu Cui excitedly reported!
"Was it done by Mei Niang's people?" Madam Chu asked, raising an eyebrow.
"No! Meiniang said that she has been keeping an eye on Qingyun Temple these past few days, waiting to find something to use against the temple."
If Qingyun Temple dares to sell such evil items to harm the young master, Meiniang will definitely not let it go.
But before she could find any clues, Qingyun Temple had already been destroyed…
As Zhu Cui spoke, she began to feel a little regretful...
"Hehe... It seems Mu Rou'er does have some tricks up her sleeve!"
Chu's lips curled slightly.
"Does Madam mean that Mu Rou'er was the one who did it?"
"Nine times out of ten, if Aunt Li wants to harm someone, she must do it secretly. How could she let others find out?"
Even if they were discovered, who would be an unsung hero and secretly inform the Li family?
Aren't you afraid of offending Qingyun Temple by sending a message? Unless this person knows Qingyun Temple's secrets, has a grudge against Qingyun Temple, and deliberately had someone watching them, waiting for revenge!
Besides Mu Rou'er, I can't think of anyone else like that..."
Madam Chu was in a good mood; it seemed that what she had said to Mu Rou'er at the birthday banquet had worked.
These two mad dogs really started fighting...
"Oh! Madam is indeed intelligent!"
They worship pearls and jade.
"Have all the people from Qingyun Temple been arrested?"
Chu smiled, took a sip of tea, and continued to ask.
"Others may not know, but the abbot of Qingyun Temple has already escaped through the secret passage. However, he has been captured by our people! Meiniang sent someone over to ask if we should just kill him?"
"Don't kill him yet, secretly give him a three-day pill, then set a trap..."
As she spoke, Chu whispered a few words into Zhu Cui's ear.
"Madam, what a brilliant plan! I'll go right away..."
...
Late at night, in an abandoned house on the outskirts of the city, an old man dressed in a Taoist robe slowly woke up.
The old man was very thin, with an aquiline nose and thin lips. His narrow eyes were full of coldness, and it was clear at a glance that he was an extremely treacherous and vicious person.
The old man had just opened his eyes when he suddenly heard footsteps outside the door.
The old man immediately sat up alertly.
"Hey! Do you think that old guy has woken up yet?"
"He can't wake up. How can he survive after being given the Three-Day Powder? You must know that the Three-Day Powder is a colorless and odorless poison. Once you're hit, you'll be trapped in nightmares for three days, and then you'll die in agony!"
"Since we're going to die anyway, what's the point of having us guard this place?"
"Just in case! What if that old guy doesn't die by accident? Then we can finish him off!"
"Tsk tsk! This Aunt Mu is truly ruthless. Killing the old man outright would have been one thing, but she made him suffer in his dreams before dying. I wonder if General Sheng knows that the seemingly gentle Aunt Mu is actually as vicious as a she-wolf."
"Hehehe! So what if she's a she-wolf? Aunt Mu is still quite pretty. Even if she's faking it, I'd be happy to sleep with her..."
"Hahaha...you're right! But are we really going to stay here for three days?"
"What are you guarding! Go in and check. If he's not awake, burn it down! I don't want to stay in this desolate place..."
“That’s right! Anyway, Aunt Mu ordered that this dilapidated house be burned down in three days. It’s in the middle of nowhere, so it won’t matter if it’s burned down today. I’ll go take a look, and you can sprinkle kerosene!”
Go!
As soon as she finished speaking, the door creaked open.
A man in black came in, glanced at the old Taoist priest lying motionless on the bed, and then turned and left.
Moments later, a raging fire broke out in the mountain cabin, and two figures used their light-footed skills to disappear...
The old Taoist priest sat up from the bed, his eyes gleaming with a bloodthirsty light.
He slowly stretched out his arm and drew symbols in the air.
A halo of light enveloped his entire body, and he slowly stood up, taking a step outside...
The raging fire dragon that rushed towards him vanished into nothingness the instant it touched the halo.
The old Taoist priest walked out of the dilapidated house, came to a hillside, and sat cross-legged.
A moment later, his brows furrowed slightly, and a fierce glint flashed in his eyes.
"It really is a three-day elixir? Very well, Aunt Mu? If you dare to plot against me, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
After the old Taoist finished speaking, he quickly walked down the mountain...
What he didn't see was that, in a large tree not far away, a stunningly beautiful woman was quietly watching him.
The moonlight shone on the trees, illuminating the woman's beautiful face.
Those eyes were incredibly alluring and seductive. Like a fox, they were full of cunning, yet possessed a fatal attraction.
Her gaze was fixed on the old Taoist priest's back, a strange smile playing on her lips.
...
The East Garden of the General's Mansion.
Chu was leaning against the bed reading when she faintly heard a rustling sound coming from outside the window.
A strange fragrance wafted into my nose...
Chu's lips curled slightly.
"Meiniang, come in!"
"Hehe, Master, your hearing is still so good! You could even recognize me!"
A figure in red climbed in through the window and walked to the bedside with a smile.
