Not long after the doctor left, one of the monks who followed Chen Yi knocked on the door and came in.
"Liaokong, why are you here?"
After spending these days together, Cui Yuan already knew the Buddhist names of the two monks following Chen Yi.
One was called Lekong and the other was called Fayun.
Liaokong walked up to Cui Yuan and clasped his hands together, his face without a single emotion changing, "Donor Cui, you go and have a rest. I will stay here to watch over Donor Qin."
"If you stay here, what will happen to Chen Yi?"
In order to prevent Liu Yan from being exposed in front of Princess Yuehua, Chen Yi and the others did not live with them during the entire journey, unless they slept outdoors.
At this time, Chen Yi and his friends were living in an inn in the city.
Liaokong replied: "Senior Brother Chenyi is more powerful than me and Fayun put together, there won't be any problem."
Cui Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good."
"Donor Cui, please go and have a rest."
"Then thank you for your help." Cui Yuan stood up and said.
With Kong guarding Qin Shi, he felt at ease, more at ease than if he were guarding here himself.
After walking two steps, Cui Yuan turned back and said worriedly: "Liao Kong, I'm next door. If our master has any problems, you must call me."
"I know."
Then Cui Yuan walked out of the room.
On the other side, Princess Yuehua's maid was reporting Qin Shi's injuries to her.
"Your Highness, the doctor said that Lord Qin has lost too much blood. If he doesn't wake up soon, I'm afraid he will never wake up again."
Princess Yuehua curled her lips and chuckled, "Qin Shi, this is what happens when you go against me!"
The maid observed Princess Yuehua's expression and said, "Your Highness, when I came back, I saw one of the three monks coming here. He is now in Lord Qin's room."
Princess Yuehua's eyes suddenly changed, "What is that monk doing here? Is he here to save Qin Shi?"
"I don't know."
Princess Yuehua thought for a moment and said, "Wen'an, follow me to take care of Qin Shaoqing's injuries."
"Yes, mother."
Not long after, Princess Yuehua brought Princess Wen'an to Qin Shi's room.
The two soldiers guarding outside the room bowed to them.
"I'm here to see Qin Shaoqing." Princess Yuehua explained her purpose to the two officers and soldiers.
The two officers looked at each other with embarrassed expressions.
"Why? I cannot see Qin Shaoqing."
Upon hearing this, the two soldiers immediately knelt on one knee. One of them said nervously, "Lord Cui said that Qin Shaoqing needs to rest now, and asked us to stay here and not let anyone in."
"I can't go in either?"
Just when the two soldiers didn't know what to do, the door of the room was opened from the inside.
Liaokong stood at the door, clasped his hands together and said, "Amitabha, the two female donors, please come in."
Liaokong knew that Princess Yuehua would not give in until she saw Qin Shi, so he took the initiative to open the door and let them in.
Princess Yuehua frowned and pulled the corner of her mouth, then walked into the room with Lady Wen'an.
His eyes fell on Qin Shi who was unconscious on the bed, and a barely perceptible sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.
She slowly walked to the bedside, looked down at Qin Shi, and asked with pretended concern, "How is Qin Shaoqing's injury?"
"I don't know."
"Didn't the young master come here to heal Qin Shaoqing's injuries?" Princess Yuehua asked tentatively with a smile.
Liaokong replied calmly: "I don't know any medical skills."
Princess Yuehua looked at Luokong in front of her and thought to herself, these monks have never killed anyone along the way, no matter how ferocious the people they met were, so they must not lie.
Thinking of this, Princess Yuehua felt relieved after knowing that Kong was not here to save Qin Shi.
Moreover, with Lekong here, there is one less person at the inn, and she can take advantage of the opportunity to take action.
Although she failed to kill Qin Shi along the way, she found out that there was someone hiding in Chen Yi's carriage.
The man was wearing monk's clothes, but he also wore a black veil all day long to prevent people from seeing his face.
It looks suspicious no matter how you look at it!
Princess Yuehua retracted her gaze and sighed, "I hope Qin Shaoqing can wake up soon so that we can set off soon."
"Donor Qin is a lucky person, and he will definitely wake up."
"I also read some scriptures from time to time." Princess Yuehua smiled warmly at Lu Kong, "Does the little master have time to lecture on the scriptures for me?"
Liaokong put his hands together and said, "Please forgive me, my lady donor. Liaokong is still inexperienced and cannot give lectures to people for the time being."
"I don't mind."
"Buddhist rules cannot be broken." Liaokong politely refused.
Princess Yuehua smiled slightly displeasedly, "In that case, I won't bother you anymore."
"Go slowly, lady."
Princess Yuehua walked out of the room with Lady Wen'an in her eyes, a hint of viciousness flashing.
When they were a little further away, she whispered to the maid, "Go and arrange for someone to sneak into the inn where the monks are staying tonight and kill the monk wearing the veil!"
The maid took the order and left.
Gradually, night fell.
Five men in black came to the inn where Chen Yi was staying, quietly climbed up to the second floor of the inn, and then came to the outside of Chen Yi's room.
I saw them pry open the door of the room skillfully and then walk in quietly.
But as soon as the five people stepped over the threshold, the room lit up and the door behind them was closed by Fayun.
Chen clasped his hands together and stood calmly in the middle of the room, not looking panicked at all.
"Amitabha, what are you doing breaking in so late at night?" His voice was calm and steady.
The five men in black did not answer. After looking at each other, they immediately attacked the two men.
Amid the flashing of swords and sabers, Chen Yi dodged the attack nimbly and grabbed the man in black with his hand to counterattack.
Fayun danced with the stick in his hand and fought with two men in black.
However, after a few moves, the men in black were at a disadvantage under Chen Yi's attack.
Seeing that the situation was not good, one of them wanted to escape, but was kicked back by Fayun.
The sound of fighting woke up many people, but no one dared to come to check. They all huddled in their beds, shivering.
Since no one called for help, they pretended not to hear.
After a while, the five men in black all fell to the ground. Fayun took out the ropes he had prepared in advance and tied them up.
After hearing the fighting stop, the innkeeper mustered up the courage to bring his waiters over to check the situation.
Then, he saw Chen Yi smiling and saying to him: "These thieves broke into my room and committed a crime. Please help report it to the authorities."
"I...I'll go right away!"
