"That's it."
Eunuch Wen pointed to a dog hole hidden in the grass and said.
That dog hole looks quite 'fresh'.
It seems to have been dug out not long ago.
Sure enough, Eunuch Wen said, "This dog hole was just dug. Recently, a big, difficult stray dog appeared in the courtyard. The prince was kind and didn't have anyone drive it away, but the dog always likes to dig holes everywhere. This one was just dug yesterday, so the prince's people probably don't know about it yet."
"I also saw it yesterday when I passed by."
"You can go in from here. The back room is inside. After you crawl in, turn right, pass a clear spring pool, and then turn left to the west side..." Eunuch Wen pointed out the road after crawling through the dog hole in detail.
Look at that dog hole.
The brother and sister looked at each other speechlessly.
The little black dog at home also likes to dig holes everywhere, so the brother and sister are very accepting of this wild dog digging holes.
Just looking at the hole...
"Sister, I'll go first."
As Yang Huaijin spoke, he stepped forward, parted the grass, squatted down and tried to crawl, but the result was... he was stuck.
The shoulder position is stuck.
No matter how he changed the position, it felt like it was just a little bit off. No matter how hard Yang Huaijin tried, it didn't work. In the end, he could only be pulled out awkwardly by Yang Zhao and Eunuch Wen.
"Ajin, I'll go."
Yang Zhao first cleaned the grass and dirt off Yang Huaijin's hair before speaking.
Yang Huaijin's first reaction was to disagree.
"Sister, this won't do. We don't know what's going on inside..." But when he met his sister's gaze, his voice couldn't help but pause.
He understood what his sister meant.
My sister had to go because she wanted to confirm whether the King of Wings was really as she suspected. This was related to how she would arrange the future, and it might also affect the future fate of their Yang family...
"Sister, I'm waiting for you here."
"If there's anything wrong, just shout and I'll rush in immediately."
"good!"
Yang Zhao went in through the dog hole.
After entering, under the illumination of the bright fifteenth moon, she followed what Eunuch Wen said and carefully found the main courtyard where King Yi lived. She carefully hid under a window at the back of a corner.
Just when I was about to poke a hole in the window paper.
'Chi'
The window was actually opened from the inside to the outside.
Yang Zhao was so frightened that he turned sideways and quickly pressed his body against the wall that was shielded from light. He dared not move and even held his breath.
According to the pattern.
This window should be at the back of the main house and is usually not opened.
But at this time the window was open.
From Yang Zhao's perspective, he could still see the man's slender arm pushing the window open with great force, allowing the light inside the room to instantly shine out. The tall figure was still standing straight by the window, seemingly looking outside...
Yang Zhao was even more afraid to move.
Lasted a long time.
It lasted so long that a cold sweat broke out on her forehead before the person in the window seemed to have left.
But Yang Zhao didn't dare to move for the time being.
After she was completely sure that the person in the house was no longer near the window, she moved to the window very carefully and looked inside quietly. Sure enough, there was no one in the house.
But vaguely, I seemed to be able to hear some sounds.
It's very blurry, and seems to be coming from quite far away.
Thinking of what Xiaoqing said...
Yang Zhao hesitated for a moment, then turned around and entered the house. However, soon after entering, she found something a little strange. The layout of the house... didn't look like a normal residence. Instead, it looked like...
Until she saw the large bathtub behind a screen.
Her expression finally froze slightly.
This house.
It's basically a bathhouse...
Curls of hot steam rose from the large bathtub. Through the almost translucent screen, one could vaguely see a figure sitting in the pool.
Yang Zhao subconsciously wanted to leave.
But I heard the person in the pool humming something, not very loud.
Yang Zhao couldn't help but pause.
She tried to listen carefully, but she couldn't hear clearly. She always felt that the distance was too far, so she slowly moved closer... But it was still unclear, so she moved closer again... Unknowingly, she walked to the screen.
At this moment, she finally heard it.
That wasn't some crazy talk at all; it was simply a man muttering Buddhist scriptures in a low voice...
"who?"
Just then.
The man in the pool suddenly spoke.
Yang Zhao's face suddenly changed, and he subconsciously wanted to run away, but he heard the man sigh and say, "Chen Liu, right? Why don't you listen? I don't need you to do anything."
Yang Zhao stopped where he was.
The man in the bathtub didn't seem surprised when he didn't hear a response. Instead, he continued, "Since you're already in, come over here and help me get something."
Yang Zhao naturally didn't want to go over there, but he thought of what Ah Qing said, that her name was engraved on his chest.
After thinking about it, she slowly walked around the screen.
Just as he was about to disguise himself as a man and apologize that he was not Chen Liu, he saw Mo Junran in the big bathtub. He had his eyes wrapped with a white cloth and was wearing a thin white cassock, soaking in the bathtub.
This scene made Yang Zhao slightly stunned.
However, when Yang Zhao saw the white cloth wrapped around his eyes, he stopped talking.
"Why don't you come over?"
Mo Junran, who was in the bathtub, didn't hear any footsteps and asked in confusion.
Yang Zhao hesitated for a moment, then walked around the bathing pool.
Hot air and smoke are curling up.
It was then that Yang Zhao discovered that there were some tea leaves floating in the water of the pool, and the water had a faint scent of sandalwood, which made her think of the Buddhist practice of bathing in scented water.
But isn’t this something that only high monks who are about to pass away would do?
Thinking of this, Yang Zhao couldn't help but look towards Mo Junran, who was covered with a white cloth in the pool. Seeing that he didn't look like he was about to die, his eyes subconsciously moved downwards. The thin white cassock was wet and stuck to his skin. He could vaguely see some words underneath...
Could it be that her name is really engraved on it?
Yang Zhao frowned.
Just then.
Mo Junran slowly extended his hand and roughly pointed at a plate of bath beans beside the bathtub: "Since you want to help, then bring that plate of bath beans to me. The time is almost up."
Is the time almost up?
Is this the time to go crazy?
Yang Zhao thought for a moment, then went over to pick up the tray of bath beans and walked to a position not far from Mo Junran. Just as he was about to pass it over, he froze in his tracks when he saw the next scene...
