"Pah, pah, pah, it's New Year's Day, don't say such unlucky things."
Mrs. Liu was afraid that this marriage would be cancelled again, so she didn't dare to stop him and reluctantly agreed, "Okay, then you can go early and come back early, and ask a few more maids to accompany you."
"Yes, mother."
-
Early the next morning, the carriage set off towards the Taoist temple in the suburbs of Beijing.
After arriving at the destination, the young Taoist priest in the Taoist temple arranged a meditation room for Su Man and her group. Before entering the room, Su Man said that she wanted to devote herself to worshipping the real person, and no one should disturb her in the next few days.
The servants all agreed and went about their own business.
Su Man called Liu Ma in alone. After a while, a woodcutter wearing coarse linen clothes and carrying a basket came out of the meditation room and quietly slipped down the mountain.
At the foot of the mountain, Su Man looked up at the Taoist temple halfway up the mountain and breathed a sigh of relief.
If she didn't use this trick to escape, and Qi Xing knew her whereabouts, she wouldn't know what kind of trouble she would get into. It would be better for her to go alone.
For the sake of convenience, Su Man deliberately painted her face black and dressed up as a woodcutter before going out, so no one noticed her along the way and she was able to get away.
Seeing that it was getting dark, Su Man hurried towards Wuyou Village.
The Taoist temple was not far from Wuyou Village, but the road was slippery due to the snow. It was not until dark that Su Man saw the stone tablet of Wuyou Village.
At this moment, Wuyou Village was dead silent and completely shrouded in darkness, which was in stark contrast to what she saw last time.
It can be seen that what the village chief said before was all an illusion they deliberately created.
Su Man put the backpack on her back and walked towards the village with one foot deep and one foot shallow.
...
The evening wind was cold and felt like a knife cutting my face.
Su Man walked carefully in the village against the wind, but she didn't meet anyone along the way.
She walked in the direction of the formation's center as guessed by Xu's mother, and finally, she stopped at the door of the village chief's house.
Looking at the tightly closed gate, Su Man suddenly remembered the blood-red eye she saw at the village chief's house that day, and couldn't help feeling a little scared.
She first stuck her head against the door and listened for a while, but could only hear the whistling sound of the wind, nothing else.
Su Man looked around and found that there were several piles of grass a few steps away. They were piled together and just enough to climb over the wall.
