Chapter 718: Dangerous Shanyuan Temple
At noon when Fu Jichang and his men attacked, the western barbarians on the border of Ye County launched an attack.
Fang Qing held the position for two days and two nights, not letting the Western barbarians in at all.
Tuomu was very surprised. Fang Qing's tactics had improved qualitatively and were very different from before. It seemed as if he had received guidance from a master.
The Western Barbarians were howling with anger. Even during the truce, they were not idle. They sent people to sneak into Ye County to cause harassment.
Azimu was the most unconvinced. She originally wanted to capture Fang Qing and ask him to hand over the woman disguised as a man. She had been investigating the Black Lotus Cult.
He wanted to find out her background.
Tuomu also wanted to catch that woman. Her swordsmanship was really good, and he wanted her to teach him a few moves.
Ji Xiaobei hasn't been to the mountains for two or three days.
That night, she quietly returned to Boling Mountain.
Fortunately, I memorized the route when I went out last time.
This time the cave was easy to find.
They live a good life.
When they heard that a war had broken out outside, the men all came over to ask.
"General Fang guarded the border, and the western barbarians were unable to attack..." Ji Xiaobei gave a brief account of the situation outside.
"General Fang is so amazing..."
People said one after another.
Fang Zhiying's face was full of pride. Zhang Hu turned his head to look at her, and his heart was filled with waves.
"The Western Barbarians love to launch surprise attacks. They will enter Ye County from Boling Mountain and harass the people. Ye County is adjacent to Boling Mountain to the west, and the mountains are endless, so it is difficult to defend against them."
Fang Zhiying said with some concern.
Because she had heard her father say this before.
My father also looked worried when he talked about this.
"We don't need to worry about these. Come, let's eat! The meal over there is ready." Zhang Hu said quickly in order to prevent the atmosphere, which had just started to get better, from getting worse.
Today Zhang Hu was wandering around and shot a wild deer.
We're having wild venison tonight, and we've stewed a full pot of it outside.
After dinner, everyone went back to the cave to rest.
The three children hadn't seen Ji Xiaobei for a few days, so they hugged her and wouldn't let go. She only washed up and lay down after she coaxed the three children to sleep.
"Sister, you must be careful when you are outside. I found your two sets of men's clothes and washed them. You can bring a replacement tomorrow."
Jiaojiao put the neatly folded clothes in front of Ji Xiaobei.
"Okay, thank you Jiaojiao, you have to take care of the child and clean up all these messes, it must be hard work."
Ji Xiaobei looked at Jiaojiao's face which was red from the wind and said with some reluctance.
"I grew up here when I was a kid, and I don't find it hard. By the way, how are He Ye and the others?"
Jiaojiao asked.
"He Ye, He Ye followed Fu Jichang to the capital. Something might have happened there. We don't know the situation yet..." Ji Xiaobei said in a low voice.
Jiaojiao looked at Ji Xiaobei in surprise for a while, then lowered her eyes and didn't ask any more questions.
He nodded and said, "Men always have men's things to do. When the world is at peace, we can live a peaceful life for a few days."
"Yes, good days will come soon."
"When peace comes, I will go back to where I grew up and visit my grandfather."
Jiaojiao was in a heavy mood, and her voice was a little melancholy.
"Okay, I'll go with you then."
Jiaojiao nodded and said, "Grandfather said I was picked up. I really want to find my relatives..." Then she laughed and said, "I was overthinking. Western Xinjiang is so big, and so many years have passed. Who would still remember a child thrown on the roadside... It's really a fantasy."
Ji Xiaobei put his arm around Jiaojiao's shoulders and said, "It will be fine. Everything will be fine."
"Sister, the war will stop in a few days. Can I go out with you? I want to go to Shanyuan Temple to burn some incense. I heard from the Zhang family's nanny that the incense in Shanyuan Temple is very effective. I have been dreaming about my grandfather these days. My grandfather's memorial day is coming soon..."
Ji Xiaobei hesitated for a moment and said, "Let's go tomorrow. I'll go with you!"
"Sister, is it okay?" Jiaojiao didn't want to cause trouble for Ji Xiaobei, but she was also looking forward to it.
"Okay, after burning the incense, you go find Huang Po first. When I'm done with my work, I'll come find you in the evening and send you back." Ji Xiaobei said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll go clean it up now."
"Find out your men's clothes too."
……
The next morning, Ji Xiaobei and Jiaojiao were seen going out.
The three children clamored to go along.
Ji Xiaobei coaxed them for a long time before they agreed to follow Miss Fang to pick wild flowers.
The two men led the little white horse out of Boling Mountain and headed straight for Shanyuan Temple.
Shanyuan Temple is in the south city. The world is not peaceful, so the poor are more willing to go to Shanyuan Temple to pray to Buddha for safety.
There was a constant stream of pilgrims at Shanyuan Temple early in the morning.
Ji Xiaobei and Jiaojiao followed the crowd into the door and walked towards the big temple in the front yard.
Because of his experience from last time, Ji Xiaobei was vigilantly observing the movements around him.
Jiaojiao knew that Ji Xiaobei didn't like to burn incense and worship Buddha, so she asked her to wait at the temple entrance while she went in.
Ji Xiaobei stood under an ancient tree.
Bai was picking up the pebbles under her feet boredly when a figure flashed past her. She shuddered all over. The figure looked so familiar. She stared at the back.
The person in front seemed to sense the gaze from behind and paused.
He quickened his pace and moved forward.
Ji Xiaobei: He is the man who kidnapped Miss Fang at Shanyuan Temple last time.
In the blink of an eye, the man was gone.
Ji Xiaobei found it strange that the man noticed her but pretended not to see her.
No, it's too dangerous here.
She accidentally heard from General Fang's deputy general that they had negotiated once before the war.
A Qingmu asked Fang Qing to hand over the person who disguised himself as a man last time.
Fang Qing shouted angrily: There are no women dressed as men. All those we brought out from the Great Northern Dynasty are real men. The women stay in the back house and no one goes to the battlefield.
A Qingmu was so angry that he wanted to die.
But Ji Xiaobei knew clearly that the invasion of Ye County by the Western Barbarians was premeditated and had nothing to do with him.
But Tuomu and his companions were looking for the person who was investigating the Black Lotus Cult.
I am that person.
Ha ha!
Ji Xiaobei felt that Shanyuan Temple was full of dangers, and she wanted to take Jiaojiao away as soon as possible.
At this time, only a few screams were heard from the temple: "Oh no, someone is beating someone, someone is beating someone..."
Ji Xiaobei's heart skipped a beat. Oh no!
She ran over there quickly.
"A man and a young man got into a fight..."
"What's going on?" Ji Xiaobei asked, looking around but couldn't see Jiaojiao.
"Jiaojiao..." Ji Xiaobei called out, but no one answered.
"That young man was kneeling here and kowtowed, but a man came over and slapped him, knocked him unconscious, and carried him away... Oh my God, it's so horrible, in broad daylight, he actually..."
Ji Xiaobei wailed in his heart: It’s over, it’s over, it must be someone from the Black Lotus Cult.
