Chapter 68: Jing'an Temple in Danger
In such a peaceful environment, Yunli fell asleep quickly and slept until night.
The three little girls in the room leaned quietly against the bed and stood by Yun Li.
Looking at the night outside, Strawberry couldn't help but ask Baizhi and Yingtao beside her: "The young lady hasn't had dinner yet, and she's been taking a long nap. Should we wake her up?"
Cherry shook her head and sighed, "Let's not yell. The young lady likes to sleep until she wakes up naturally. Unless there's something important to wake her up, she'll be very irritable when she wakes up!"
Bai Zhi also nodded and agreed: "When she went out today, I saw that the young lady's eyes were dark. She must not have slept well last night, so she slept for so long. She will wake up naturally when she is full of sleep.
If you two are hungry, go to the temple kitchen and see if there is any vegetarian food. Have something to fill your stomach. I will be here to watch over the young lady!"
Cherry and Strawberry shook their heads. Strawberry said, "Let's not go to the temple so late at night. We're unfamiliar with the place and it's a bit scary to come to a place like this. I brought a lot of dry food! It's in my bag. We'll eat it here!"
Strawberry stood up and picked up the bundle on the table. When she opened it, it was filled with packaged snacks and dried meats of various flavors!
Cherry teased, "You haven't done anything wrong, so what are you afraid of? The Buddha is merciful and blesses all living beings. I think the temple is pretty good."
Yun Li, who was lying on the bed, listened to the conversation between the three people and curled her lips imperceptibly. In fact, she had already woken up when they started talking.
I just didn't open my eyes, my consciousness was immersed in the space and turned around.
She had such a comfortable sleep! She felt so energetic and light!
Before coming to Jing'an Temple, she had sent a letter to Ye Yi, asking him to transfer five people from Ye Mei to Jing'an Temple to guard secretly during this period. She didn't know whether Ye Mei's people had arrived by now.
Just as she was thinking, she suddenly heard a fight outside and opened her eyes instantly.
Cherry hurriedly asked, "Miss, are you awake?"
Yun Li put her finger on her mouth: "Shh" to signal her not to speak
I immediately stood up and walked to the window, looking outside. The yard was dark and there was no one in sight. It was obvious that the fighting sound did not come from the yard.
She carefully identified the direction of the sound and felt that there was no sound on the roof, but the sound of fierce fighting still surrounded her ears.
Yun Li quietly asked the three people, "Did you hear any fighting?"
The three of them were puzzled, listened carefully, and shook their heads seriously.
She was sure she was not hallucinating, and a small pistol appeared in her palm, which she hid in her sleeve.
"The three of you stay in the room and don't go out! I'll go check it out."
Cherry worriedly reminded him, "Miss, it's dark outside and you can't see anything. You'd better not go out!"
Yun Li shook her head: "It's okay! Don't worry! I will be fine."
After saying that, she opened the door and went out. She stood in the yard and carefully identified the direction from which the sound came.
Finally, she determined that the sound came from the woods behind her yard. She hurried towards the back of the mountain. The closer she got to her ears, the clearer the sound became.
She had a guess in her mind. It might be because she drank the spiritual spring water every day for the past three months, which made her five senses very sensitive. Just like now, she didn't take the flashlight from the space. There was no moonlight tonight. She could vaguely see where there were obstacles in front of her in the dark, and she could avoid them with her feet lightly.
I have to say that this spiritual spring water is really a good thing!
Walking straight inside, there were flashes of swords and sabers in the depths of the woods. The two sides fighting were all masked men in black. Yun Li hid behind the tree with a cold look in his eyes.
After careful observation, she found that some of them were Night Guards! She knew them through their shoes. Their shoes were the lightweight and comfortable sports shoes and wear-resistant climbers that she had taken from the space before. Each of them was given four pairs, as well as black outdoor waterproof clothing.
They often traveled around to do tasks. Most of the roads in ancient times were uneven, and there were more potholes and muddy roads. Cloth shoes were really worn out. It was okay to wear them on sunny days, but when it rained, the shoes would be filled with rainwater and mud, and the soles of their feet would be swollen after a day.
Her people should be treated well. These daily necessities are nothing compared to what they do.
The Night Guards and the four men in black fought evenly. It seemed that the other side was not bad either. Since he recognized his own people, Yun Li found the right time, picked up the gun and quickly killed the three men in black. They were all killed with one shot. They fell to the ground one after another without being able to catch up with the speed of lightning.
Only one man in black was left, and the Night Guards quickly subdued him.
"Meet the Master"
Five Night Guards brought the man in black in front of her. When she fired, the Night Guards knew it was her, because the thing in her hand was the only one in the world that could blow through a person's head, so there was no need to verify, he was their master!
Seeing their master use the pistol to kill people again, they were suddenly very excited. Among the twelve of them, only their boss Ye Yi had a pistol, but the master only gave him three bullets, saying that it could only be used to save lives at critical moments! They were not allowed to use it casually during missions.
He also said that if they performed great deeds in the mission, they would be rewarded with pistols later!
Yun Li nodded and then asked, "Who are they?"
Ye Er replied, "Master, we received the order from the boss and rushed to Jing'an Temple. When we were near the foot of the mountain, we encountered these people acting suspiciously, so we followed them all the way and found that they were close to the courtyard where you live, so we led them into the woods and prepared to deal with them!
We didn't want to alarm the master. Before we came, the boss told us to secretly handle any crises for the master and try not to disturb the master, so why did the master come out? "
Yun Li looked at the few people with admiration. Although they were close, there was no light and the few people could not see her face clearly, but she could clearly see the eyes of the few people.
"I felt something was wrong, so I came out to check it out. I heard you fighting and came all the way here."
After the words fell, Ye Mei and the others were extremely shocked. Their master turned out to be a woman!
Yun Li had no idea what they were thinking. Seeing the night deepen, she continued to order, "Deal with the body. As for the survivor, no matter what means you use, make sure she confesses the person behind this!"
"Yes! Master!"
Yun Li turned and walked towards the temple. She guessed in her heart that it was most likely someone sent by Yun Wei or Yun Ran, or the third princess. She had thought of it when she came, but she didn't expect that no matter which one of them, they would be so impatient.
Tsk tsk~ She just arrived at Jing'an Temple this afternoon, and she took action that same evening...
Back in the courtyard, just as I reached the door, I saw a plump figure stuck to the window. It was Aunt Gui! The person her good father had sent to take care of her...
Humph! Yun Li walked lightly behind her, ready to scare the old woman.
"Madam Gui, what are you doing here in the middle of the night?"
Aunt Gui was listening to the noise in the room with her ear pressed against the window. She was startled by the sudden voice.
Turning around, I saw the person behind me by the candlelight coming through the window and was shocked again.
"Miss... Miss San, why are you here?"
"Where else would I be if I wasn't here? But Aunt Gui, what are you sneaking around and eavesdropping on?"
"I...I...I didn't...I didn't eavesdrop."
"Get out! Get as far away as you can! If I catch you sneaking around my house like this next time, I won't mind throwing you to the wolves in the mountains behind the temple!"
Nanny Gui shuddered and stammered, "I'll leave right away, I'll leave right away."
