"Yes, if there is any mistake, the people on the mountain will immediately shoot down anyone who enters without hesitation, even if it is an accidental killing."
The three of them walked out of the princess's mansion, carefully avoiding the patrolmen from the Imperial City Bureau. They found a low place on the city wall, covered their faces with scarves, climbed over the wall and ran towards the south.
On the way, Juefeng and Jueshui worriedly introduced the situation over there to Ji Changying, and their words were full of resistance. They didn't want to go back to that place.
Ji Changying didn't care about them. She had to go over there to see if her master was there.
After finding Ren Dongnan, she must ask Master Huiji what the secret is. Now that her mother is implicated, the matter seems weird no matter how you look at it.
When we arrived at the foot of Silent Hill, the mountain was covered with night fog, and the moonlight was also blocked. It looked like something out of a horror movie.
"lead the way."
Seeing that they had already come this far, she was still determined to go up. Juefeng and Jueshui stopped trying to persuade her and flew onto the sparse branches to signal Ji Changying to follow.
The top of Silent Hill is covered with rocks and sparse trees, making it impossible for ordinary people to step on it.
The three of them walked without touching the ground, almost stepping on branches and stones, all the way to the top of Silent Hill.
Ji Changying covered the entire mountain while running with his supernatural power, and found a long and narrow valley that had been hollowed out between two mountains.
On the rock walls of the valley, people had mined out layers of places for human activities at some unknown time, going up layer by layer to halfway up the mountain.
I guess this must be the place they were talking about.
When they were almost at the top of the mountain, the two people leading the way stopped and said, "We're here."
The two men jumped down from the branch, and it was a small piece of cleared flat land.
Juefeng was just about to take out the token from his bosom and explain things to Ji Changying when two flying knives flew out from the side and stabbed at the necks of the two men.
Because it happened so suddenly, Juefeng and Jueshui had no time to react and could only watch.
Fortunately, Ji Changying was prepared. He flew over and kicked the two men, then looked to their sides: "Master!"
The flying knife hit the tree trunk nearby with two "ding ding" sounds, and Ren Dongnan's figure also appeared.
"Why are you here?" Ren Dongnan's voice sounded a little surprised and displeased.
"I came here to look for you, why are you here?"
Ji Changying was very surprised to see him appear. She stepped forward and grabbed Ren Dongnan's sleeve.
"How did you find this place?"
Ren Dongnan let her hold him without struggling, but instead seemed a little helpless.
This disciple is really amazing. He can even find his way here.
"These two were sent by that Grand Master. I brought them here to the capital. After I ran into you last time, I asked them and found out you all came from here. You ran away so quickly last time, without saying a word, and disappeared. I didn't come here just to find you."
"Nonsense! If you know where this is, just come here!"
Ren Dongnan couldn't help but rebuke his apprentice for his audacity.
"I don't want to make a fuss, so just tell me!"
Ji Changying snorted and looked at him: "Do you think I won't worry if you don't tell me? Although you don't want to implicate me, how can I just stand by and watch? If there is anything, why don't we discuss it and solve it quickly? Isn't it better than you doing it alone?"
Ren Dongnan was silent for a long time: "This involves too many people. Aren't you afraid that it will also implicate your family?"
"Are you too old to be so fussy? Tell me what's going on first! If you don't, I'll go down and look for it myself. I know there's a cliff 500 meters ahead, and below that is where you were trained."
Ji Changying's words made Ren Dongnan's face change again and again, even Juefeng and Jueshui looked at her in astonishment.
If she hadn't asked them to lead the way, they would have thought it wasn't her first time here.
Ren Dongnan's eyebrows twitched when he heard this, and he said helplessly: "The Grand Master has captured my friend, the one who made the weapon for you."
"Who is the Grand Master?"
Ren Dongnan raised his lips in a sarcastic tone, "Hui Ji, you old bald donkey."
"What?!"
Even more shocked than Ji Changying were Juefeng and Jueshui.
The two looked at Ren Dongnan in disbelief: "Master Huiji? Impossible! How could it be?!"
Even for those killers, it was difficult for them to connect Master Huiji, who was well-known in Beijing for his compassion, with the cruel and unscrupulous Grand Master!
Ji Changying, on the other hand, was much calmer. After a moment of surprise, he understood immediately: "I knew there was something wrong with that monk, but I didn't expect him to be the Grand Master."
Ren Dongnan was a little surprised: "How do you know there's something wrong with him?"
Ji Changying told Ren Dongnan about the miracle that day and her conclusion after looking at the root of the Weituo flower. He nodded without any surprise: "This is something he would do."
"Then the Yongle Earl? Did you kill him?"
"It's me."
Ren Dongnan admitted bluntly, "I didn't know where that bald donkey had imprisoned my friend, so I carefully lurked in Huangjue Temple for a while. As a result, I discovered that the Yongle Earl Prince was secretly in contact with Huiji, the bald donkey, and there seemed to be some kind of deal between the two."
"I followed Prince Yongle and discovered that he had gathered many orphans in the basement of a separate courtyard, then... did things worse than animals to them before sending them here."
"So I took advantage of the fact that there were many people in Huangjue Temple, killed them, and then lured the people from the Criminal Investigation Department over there. I dropped the Dzi beads that Bald Donkey was carrying on the cliff, hoping that they would find Huiji."
Ji Changying found it hard to imagine how his master, who was blind, managed to do all this and how he managed to hide the truth and stay in Huangjue Temple for so long.
She looked at her master, who had lost two large circles of weight, and felt a little distressed: "Let's go! Let's go back and capture that old bald donkey and force him to hand over the people."
Ren Dongnan twitched his lips. "Do you think that bald donkey is easy to deal with? His methods are strange and unpredictable. If I weren't really forced into a corner, I wouldn't want to face him directly."
As a death warrior trained by the previous dynasty, Ren Dongnan understands the Grand Master's methods better than anyone else.
"Is it really that magical?" Ji Changying was a little skeptical.
"Do you know how old Huiji is this year?"
Ji Changying hesitated and shook her head.
The monk doesn't look very old, but if Ren Dongnan said that he was the great master of the previous dynasty, then he must be at least fifty years old, right?
Ren Dongnan curled his lips. "When the previous dynasty was still in existence, he was already a renowned Grand Master. It was said that he was over forty years old. Later, Emperor Mingde led his men into the palace, and the first thing he did was to kill the Grand Master. He did it with his own hands."
"But only two years after he took office, a monk named Huiji appeared at the Huangjue Temple in the capital. Now, decades later, he looks even younger with a new look."
