Chapter 204 Buddha Appears
But the Queen Mother underestimated the shamelessness of Shen Yu and the other two. They were going to Qingxin Hall to copy scriptures, and the three of them followed, saying that they wanted to pray for the emperor together.
Lin You looked at Shen Yu sitting at the neighboring table and rolled her eyes countless times in her heart.
And Shen Yu's eyes would fall on Lin You from time to time.
The light in the room was a little dim, and the sunlight through the window fell on her. She was drowsy after just copying a few times. She propped up her chin, her clothes were simpler than usual, and her waist was lightly tied with a thin and soft belt, which was not even a handful. Her
charming little face was only lightly made up, but it was so attractive that people couldn't take their eyes away.
Is it because of temperament? Why didn't he find Lin You so attractive before?
When Pan Xue raised her eyes, she accidentally saw Shen Yu staring at Lin You, and jealousy welled up in her eyes again.
At the same time, Concubine Chan was also paying attention to them.
After copying the scriptures, everyone went to have dinner. In the temple, they naturally had to eat vegetarian food.
Taking advantage of the opportunity to fall behind a few steps, Concubine Chan approached Pan Xue, "Are you here to deal with Lin You this time?"
Pan Xue's expression suddenly tensed.
This Concubine Chan really has no brains. Is there any need to ask about such things?
"Please be careful with your words, Your Majesty."
Now is a critical moment, Pan Xue dare not take it lightly, so as not to let down her guard again.
Seeing her so nervous, Concubine Chan did not ask any more questions. Anyway, she just had to wait and see.
When everyone was eating vegetarian food, Xuanzhen came over and said, "Queen Mother, I have prepared everything for the ritual."
Upon hearing this, the Queen Mother slowly put down her chopsticks, wiped them with a towel, and then responded, "Well, let's move on."
Then, everyone went to the Buddha Heart Hall where the ritual was performed.
In the courtyard of the Buddha Heart Hall, there was a table with an incense burner on it. The eight trigrams were arranged around it with stones, and in the house opposite, there was a Buddha statue.
At this time, the night had darkened slightly, and the originally dark courtyard looked inexplicably gloomy.
Several concubines couldn't help but feel scared and huddled together.
Even Concubine De unconsciously approached Lin You and lowered her voice: "Sister, why is there such a gloomy place in the temple?"
Lin You patted her hands calmly, "No matter how gloomy it is, there is nothing scary. The most frightening thing is the human heart."
Concubine De was stunned when she heard her words, and then thought carefully.
Human heart
Opening the altar to perform rituals, Empress Li...
Could it be that this ritual is designed to target someone?
Although there are not many concubines in the harem and there are few palace struggles, she has also heard a lot about the harem of the previous emperor.
The insidious palace struggles make people's scalps numb when they hear about them.
Could it be that they are targeting the Queen Mother?
But the late Emperor is gone, and Concubine Li has become a nun, so they won't harm the Queen.
Xuan Zhen asked the Queen Mother and others to stand outside the Bagua formation. He took a wooden sword, walked to the altar, started burning incense, and then closed his eyes and began to chant a spell.
In the dark.
Hong Kui rolled her eyes and muttered, "This is obviously the trick of those who cheat in the martial arts world!"
As soon as she finished speaking, a figure suddenly passed by her from behind. She was about to turn her head to look, but her mouth was covered. She was about to reach back with her hand, but her hand was also clamped.
"Stinky girl, it's your master!"
The old poison master's face was extremely stinky.
Hearing this, Hong Kui relaxed.
The old poison master also let him go.
Hong Kui stared at him, "Master, didn't you leave?"
Old Poison Master, "When did I leave?"
Hong Kui, "..."
Tsk, little guy, you must have heard that the Queen Mother was here, so you came back.
At this time, Shen Yu, who was standing in the crowd, turned his head and looked at them. The master and disciple hurriedly kept silent and hid in the dark.
Yan Lu, who was also in the dark, also held his breath. He found Hong Kui when she came, but he didn't grab her.
Unexpectedly, the old man came later.
Shen Yu squinted his eyes for a long time, and when he saw that there was nothing unusual, he retracted his gaze.
"Boom--"
A thunder suddenly sounded, and everyone screamed in fear, and even the Queen Mother's old heart suddenly shrank in fear.
Only Lin You and Shen Yin were not surprised, their eyes were still on the Taoist priest. At this moment, a bright light suddenly flashed from the Buddha statue in the hall.
Concubine Chan widened her eyes, "Buddha statue, the Buddha statue actually lit up, so is the Buddha statue showing its spirit?"
Upon hearing this, everyone hurriedly looked over, and indeed saw a flash of light, and was immediately amazed.
"It's really the Buddha statue showing its spirit!"
The other two concubines also shouted.
"Open--"
Host Xuan Zhen shouted suddenly and opened his eyes.
Concubine Li and Pan Xue watched quietly, with a sinister look in their eyes.
Since she came here just now, Concubine Li also stared at Lin You and found that she was indeed different from other concubines.
Very calm, too calm.
It seems that there is nothing in this world that can make her afraid.
Even now, those foxy eyes were still calm, and there was a faint smile on her lips.
At this moment, she really looked like a demon concubine who brought disaster to the country and the people.
[Host, that old nun is staring at you.]
[She can stare at you, it won't hurt her.]
"Close the altar!"
Xuanzhen shouted, put away the sword, bowed to the Buddha statue, and then came to the Queen Mother and said: "Queen Mother, the Buddha has spoken. There is indeed something unclean around the emperor, which has absorbed his dragon energy and caused his body to be weak."
"Really?"
The Queen Mother opened her lips in shock, her face turned pale.
She acted surprised very realistically.
However, if it was before, maybe she would really believe it a little, but now, she saw with her own eyes that the emperor was getting better under Lin You's care, and she could hear Lin You's voice, so she didn't believe it anymore, she only believed in Lin You.
Lin You's current position is more important than these gods and Buddhas.
She came here just to follow the custom, but she didn't expect these people to take this opportunity to make up stories. She wanted to see how Concubine Li and the others would make up stories.
"This concerns the emperor and the destiny of the country. I dare not speak nonsense."
Xuan Zhen said piously with a solemn expression.
"Queen Mother, except for this thing, the emperor will get better." Concubine Li also came to the Queen Mother.
"Aunt, hurry up and catch that thing. It's too scary. Maybe that thing will also absorb our yang energy!" Concubine Chan also followed suit.
With her coaxing, the other two concubines were also scared.
The Queen Mother frowned, "Then how can we find that thing?"
Xuanzhen walked to the altar and grabbed a handful of incense ash, "This is the incense offered to the Buddha. The fallen ashes are contaminated with the Buddha's immortal energy. I trouble you ladies to dilute the ashes with water and drink them."
"If a person is possessed by the dirty thing, he will feel unbearable pain and tell his true identity. Then the poor monk can kill him with the peach wood sword."
Hearing this, the faces of several concubines were terrified.
Even Concubine Chan was no exception.
