Luzhu is a girl bought from outside. After her parents died, she was sold into the hands of human traffickers by her relatives. She traveled all over the world and met many people. She was very clever. After getting along with her for a short time, Zisu and Lianqiao were already very close to her. .

Because of Jiang Ruan and other female relatives, Qian Wanli specially arranged for Li Mi and another yamen servant to escort Jiang Ruan back to Beijing in order to please Wang Yushi. All the way down is also safe and sound. Luzhu is lively, talking about the strange things she has seen in the days of traveling with human traffickers, perhaps because she is naturally optimistic, everything she says is full of interest, and there is no trace of depression, but the sadness in it may only be known to herself. Zisu and Lianqiao naturally understand that one of them is gentle and the other is extroverted, and the three of them are chattering, so Jiang Ruan leans against the carriage, holds a book, and lives happily.

Most of the two-day itinerary has passed. After resting tonight, I may be able to arrive in Beijing at noon tomorrow.

Li Mi and another yamen servant Xiao Ma followed Wang Yushi in another carriage. It was getting late. Li Mi found out that there was a temple in front of him. Seeing that there was wilderness everywhere, it was difficult to find an inn. He asked Jiang Ruan what he meant and decided stay overnight.

The temple is quite big, but the incense is not too strong. It may be that the location is in the mountains and wilderness, and there are very few people offering incense, not even monks.

It has been a long time since Zisu and Forsythia have entered a temple. When Zhao Mei was still there, they often took Jiang Ruan to Putuo Temple to pray for blessings. After Zhao Mei passed away, Jiang Ruan went to Zhuangzi, and life became increasingly harsh. Time does not have money, and sesame oil money is also money. Asking for help from the Bodhisattva also requires paying a price.

Luzhu was no stranger to the temple, and while Zisu and Lianqiao were tidying up the house, she had followed Jiang Ruan's instructions to go around the entire temple and brought back some vegetarian food. While greeting Jiang Ruan to eat while it's hot, he explained the arrangement in the temple to Jiang Ruan in detail.

As night fell, Wang Yushi and Li Mi were arranged to live on the other side of the temple because they were male relatives. Li Mi hesitated, but he thought that it was the reputation of the ladies that mattered, and even though the temple was spacious, there was still time for anything.

Forsythia cut the wick that had grown in the oil lamp with scissors, and the light became brighter. Jiang Ruan put down the book in his hand and rubbed his forehead.

"Girl, it's so late, shouldn't it be time to rest?" Zisu asked. At this time in the past few days, Jiang Ruan had already rested, but today she is very energetic and has no intention of going down at all.

"No hurry, there is still a good show tonight." Jiang Ruan smiled slightly. I remembered what I asked Li Mi in the carriage before: "My lord, is this temple the only way to go back to Beijing?"

"Yes," Li Mi replied, "and there is only this temple in a radius of tens of miles."

Withdrawing her thoughts, Lian Qiao asked curiously: "What good show?"

"Dewdrops." Jiang Ruan said.

Luzhu pushed the door open, and said with a smile, "It's all done, girl."

Late at night in winter, the night was like thick fog, and the temple fell into a deathly silence, only the majestic whimpering sound of the wind.

The lights had been completely extinguished, only the pale waning moon was left to reflect on the snowy ground, and in an instant, a large dark cloud passed over, firmly blocking the faint moonlight. There is only complete darkness in the world.

In the deep darkness, a few sneaky figures suddenly appeared in the courtyard. After confirming in several rooms, the figures rushed into one of the rooms.

There was no sound in the courtyard, and it seemed that there were one or two bells ringing gently.

The girl in the darkness opened her eyes, a chill flashed in her pupils, she smiled slightly, and said softly, "Forsythia, Perilla."

The two maids nodded, got up, opened the door, and walked outside.

Jiang Ruan stood in the room, she had already arranged everything in the next room, she didn't sleep in that room at all, she hid in the adjacent room for so long, finally caught the turtle.

When she returned to her home in her previous life, she also lived in such a temple. Her memory was too vague. She only remembered that the monks and abbots in that temple were deliberately embarrassing or something. Extremely harsh. She didn't understand why at the time, but thinking about it now, it should have been written by Xia Yan's mother and daughter. It's just that they still needed her as a pawn to enter the palace at that time, so they just let her go after a little embarrassment. Now that she has changed suddenly, returning to Jiang's mansion as Gao Yi's daughter with such great fanfare, Xia Yan and Jiang Susu may not be too happy in their hearts.

On the last day, they were always going to be obstacles on her way back home. Only this time, what they want is her life!

There is no incense left in the temple, so I took Xia Yan’s money and worked for Xia Yan. There are a "small number" of monks left here with good intentions, and then "considerate" Jiang Ruanguiyu will separate the male and female relatives, once something happens , she has nowhere to ask for help, so she can only bear it by herself!

However, now she is an evil ghost who returned from hell, and she was the only one who came to claim her life!

There was a slight ringing of bells from the next room, which was a signal, very good, she put a lot of smoke in the room, and Luzhu took the antidote in advance, once the people sent by Xia Yan entered the room, they would only be slaughtered. Tomorrow morning, she will throw the corpses of these people in front of the Buddha statue in the temple. Li Mi is a yamen servant, so he must find out. As for the abbot's explanation, let them justify themselves.

Jiang Ruan straightened her skirt, and was about to open the door to take a look in the next room, but just as she walked to the door, the door suddenly pushed open, and a figure flashed in from outside. Jiang Ruan was startled, and quickly took a few steps back. The other party didn't seem to expect that there was someone in the room, and her movements froze slightly. In just a moment, Jiang Ruan retreated too fast, and accidentally stepped on the corner of her skirt, which was too big. If you look up, you are about to fall.

The other party also moved quickly, seeing that she was about to fall, he subconsciously stretched out his hand to wrap around her waist, and the two of them were very close for a moment, Jiang Ruan's face touched the other's cold black embroidered silver lin knurled fabric, and she kept Dazed, the dark clouds faded in an instant, the moonlight flooded the window, Jiang Ruan raised her head, and faced a pair of beautiful eyes that were as cool as ink.

Rao Jiang Ruan's heart is like a rock, and when he saw the person in front of him clearly, he couldn't help but lose his mind for a moment.

This man was about in his early twenties, and his appearance was particularly handsome, with sword eyebrows and star eyes, snow skin and thin lips, but he didn't think he looked like a man and a woman, but instead had sharp edges and corners, and a heroic air. He looked down at Jiang Ruan, his beautiful eyes were full of indifference and coldness.

The distance between the two is too close, the touch from the waist is cold, and the breath is also cold, the movements that should have been ambiguous, one is cold-hearted, the other is vigilant, neither of them is emotional at all.

This posture was subtle, as if she had been underestimated, Jiang Ruan woke up instantly, annoyed in her heart, only felt that the beauty was misleading, and took two steps back in the blink of an eye, distanced herself from the young man.

Suddenly heard the faint sound of swords colliding outside, Jiang Ruan was taken aback, and suddenly realized that the other party looked at her indifferently, and did not speak.

There was no one in the temple, Xia Yan probably would not have sent two groups of people to kill her, if it wasn't for her, it should be the young man who attracted them. Now that she has just solved a problem, but she is in such a situation, I don't know if this person will kill her, after all, her appearance was an accident.
