Shao Xi left Shaofang and took a boat again to the other courtyard where Lao Wu lived in Yujiang City. After meeting Lao Wu, the two called a carriage and went straight to Bailu Nunnery in the west of the city.
On the carriage, Shao Xi finally asked Lao Wu: "What did you find out about Daliang before? Who should we look for when we get there? There are a lot of nuns, we can't ask one by one, right?"
"Just find a little master named Pu Jing. Back then, Jingci'an was massacred and burned. Fortunately, she was young and hid so she was not discovered by those people. She was later rescued by the local people. Half a year later, her uncle came to the capital to find her master and found out what happened, so he brought her to Yujiang County and raised her in Bailu Nunnery. She should still remember what happened back then. Let’s ask her again when we get there!”
"She was young back then, how old was she?"
"Six years old."
"Damn! Isn't that the same age as me? Which one happened first, the incident at Jingci'an or the Feng family?"
"It was less than ten days before and after. Those people didn't find what they wanted in Fengjiazhuang, so they asked about Jingci'an. They probably wanted to try their luck at Jingci'an, and maybe they could find what they wanted there. stuff, but nothing was found.”
Shao Xi reached out and touched the nine-color glazed button on his neck. He was now very sure that this was what those people were looking for. The reason why Jingci Nunnery was burned by fire is because it was not found in Fengjiazhuang, so Feng Changlin must have hidden the object in Jingci Nunnery back then.
"So many people died just because of this stone. What secret is hidden in this stone? Will those people find it at all costs? What is the origin of this stone?"
Old Wu still shook his head.
"Just remember to hide it well and don't let anyone see it. When it's time to tell you, I will definitely tell you everything."
Shao Xi didn't like this feeling, especially the feeling of being hidden from others.
Old Wu obviously knew everything, but every time he was asked about it, he shook his head. It probably wasn't because he didn't want to tell him. But what kind of person and what kind of thing would put so much pressure on Lao Wu that he still dares not tell himself the truth about this matter?
The carriage left the west gate of Yujiang City and arrived at the foot of Bailu Mountain in a bumpy and staggering way. This Bailu Mountain is not so much a mountain as a larger earth bag. Bailu Temple is built on this earth bag and can be seen from a distance.
Letting the carriage wait at the bottom of the mountain, the two of them followed the stone steps to the gate of Bailu Nunnery on the top of the mountain. I felt that the surroundings were peaceful, I couldn't hear the sound of wooden fish, or the chanting of sutras, and I couldn't even see a single person, as if there was no one in the nunnery.
Old Wu stepped forward and clicked the door knocker. After a long time, the wooden door opened a crack. Standing inside the door was a young nun with a delicate face and a shy look.
"Amitabha! I wonder why the two male donors came to our Bailu Nunnery? If they want to offer incense and make wishes, it would be better for the male donors to go to Puji Temple in the city. Our nunnery only accepts female letters to offer incense."
"This little master, our master and servant are here not to offer incense and to make a wish. We are here to find someone. I would also like to ask the little master and the abbot of the nunnery to inform him that he is very helpful." "
Old Wu tried his best to look kind and kind, but with his appearance, he looked like a wretched old pervert.
"Two donors, please wait in front of the door. Xiaoni will go and report to the abbot."
After finishing speaking, before Old Wu could say another word, the wooden door was closed with a bang. Shao Xi looked at Old Wu's frustrated look and felt that he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Old Wu turned his head, smiled awkwardly at Shao Xi, and raised his hand to scratch his face.
The two of them stood stupidly outside the door of Bailu Nunnery for who knows how long. Shao Xi stood there and became a little impatient. The abbot of this nunnery is at most an old nun, right? Why such a big rack? You went in to announce that you still haven't come out to open the door after taking so long?
After waiting for a while, Shao Xi couldn't wait any longer. Is it possible that all the nuns are taking a collective bath, and I heard that the men are busy getting dressed when they arrive? But it took too long! All the clothes are done.
No, no wait! Shao Xi stepped forward and raised his hand to knock on the door again.
Just when the raised hand was about to knock down, the wooden door suddenly opened again, and an old nun in his fifties walked out, followed by the little nun who opened the door before.
"Amitabha! The two benefactors, the poor nun is the abbot of Bailu Nunnery, and his Buddhist name is Guan Zhen. I wonder what the two benefactors do for visiting this small nunnery?"
Lao Wu hurriedly stepped forward and spoke: "Master Guanzhen is so polite. My master and servant came here today to find a young master with the name of Pujing. Because my master had a deep connection with Jingci Temple back then, Today, my young master and I came here because we wanted to ask the young Master Tai to tell us something about Jing Ci Nunnery, so we took the liberty of visiting today and asked Master Guan Zhen not to be offended. We will leave after saying this and will not give any information to Guan Zhen. Cause any trouble."
"Amitabha! It turns out that these two are old friends of Jingci'an. Although Pujing was still young at that time, it seems that the two benefactors came today because of their predestined relationship with her. In this case, the poor nun should also practice more methods."
After speaking, he turned to the little nun who had just opened the door for Shao Xi and Lao Wu and said, "Pu Jing, since the two donors are here to find you, then you can talk here if you have anything to say!"
When Shao Xi and Lao Wu heard this, they thought, What? Is this Pu Jing the one who opened the door? If I had known earlier, why would I have found an abbot? Didn’t we finish talking at the door? Why bother to report it again? Isn't this taking off your pants and farting?
Pu Jing replied "Yes" to Guanzhen.
After taking a few steps forward, he saluted Shao Xi and Lao Wu and said, "Two benefactors, Xiaoni was still young when he left Jingci Nunnery. There are many things that he may not remember. If there are any questions that he cannot answer, I also ask the two donors to bear with me."
Lao Wu hurriedly replied: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter! We just want to ask about some old things. You can tell us as much as you remember. It doesn't matter if you don't remember. Was the little Master Tai's disciple of the Zhongguan Xuan Master in Jingci Temple back then? "
"Exactly, Xiaoni was adopted by the master when she was still in her infancy. When she was six years old, something big happened in the nunnery. I was the only one who survived. Later, I was taken here by Master Guanzhen, where I am today."
"To tell you the truth, my master and his servant were originally the young master and servant of Fengjiazhuang outside Yingzhou City. At that time, the owner and his wife of our village took care of a pregnant woman in Jingci Nunnery. Someone once gave something to Master Guanxuan, the master of the little master. Eleven years ago, the fire completely burned down Jingci Temple, and Master Guanxuan also died. We are here just to ask the little master. Master, do you know where the items that the woman gave to Master Guanxuan were placed?"
Pu Jing was immediately stopped by Lao Wu's question and fell into deep thought. Shao Xi and Lao Wu didn't dare to disturb her, for fear that she wouldn't be able to remember, so they could only wait quietly for her to recall.
I don't know how long the silence lasted. It was obvious that Pu Jing was trying hard to find what Old Wu just mentioned in her memory, but she didn't seem to remember anything.
In fact, it's no wonder that Jingci's Nunnery was completely burned by a fire. Pu Jing was only a six-year-old child at that time, and she might not be able to remember all the things that happened in the Nunnery. Now that I ask again, it is indeed a bit difficult for her.
But there is no way around it. Pu Jing is the only clue. If she doesn't know about it, I'm afraid what Baili Yingxue left to Feng Yuyan back then will never see the light of day again.
Just when Shao Xi and Lao Wu were a little disappointed, Pu Jing suddenly said: "Xiao Ni seems to have some impression. I remember that my master took me to dig out a long willow tree behind Jingci Temple. The wooden box. I remember that Master told me at that time that the wooden box had been buried for several years. He only dug it out to check if there was any damage. After seeing that it was okay, he buried the wooden box back. Later. I have never seen Master dig it out again, I wonder if it is what you are looking for."
Shao Xi and Lao Hu glanced at each other. Although they didn't say anything, they had already tacitly determined that it was exactly what Baili Yingxue left for Feng Yuyan.
The long wooden box is used to hold the sword. It is still unknown whether there are other items. We will only know when it is dug out and looked at.
To be sure, Lao Wu also specifically confirmed with Pu Jing the location of the willow tree and the shape and size of the box, as well as the last time Pu Jing saw this thing and what Master Guan Xuan said.
After Pu Jing's confirmation, Old Wu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that the wooden box is basically something that Feng Yuyan's mother left for Master Guanxuan to keep for safekeeping. All he has to do next is return to Kyoto and find that thing.
Now that the location of the buried things has been confirmed, the main purpose of Shao Xi and Lao Wu's trip to Yujiang County has been achieved. After returning to Daliang City after their mission to Nan Zhao, the two can go to the old site of Jingci'an to search for it. this item.
If Old Wu guessed correctly, this item should be the sword used by Feng Yuyan's mother back then, and he might also have the sword manual with him.
After the two thanked Pu Jing and the abbot Guanzhen Shitai again, they turned and left Bailu Nunnery, descended from Bailu Mountain and took a carriage back to Yujiang City, ending their trip to Bailu Nunnery.
The result was quite satisfactory, this trip to Yujiang County was not in vain after all. If it was really the sword and sword manual that Baili Yingxue left to Feng Yuyan, then after learning this set of swordsmanship, Shao Xi would be able to enter the forefront of swordsmen in the world with that sword. The sword was passed down to Baili Yingxue from the ancestor Tianqiong of Tianqiong Mountain. Both the weapon and the swordsmanship can be said to be unparalleled in the world and renowned in the martial arts.
Now that this matter has been settled, it is time to clean up the Zhao family in Yujiang County. Shao Xi plans to take action.
"Old Wu, you are going to have a fight with Cui Qi tomorrow before I arrive at Yujiang City. It's time to create an opportunity for the Zhao family to take action against me. Only if they take action will this game be more interesting. This game The drama will reach its first climax tomorrow."
The bait has been thrown out, and now we are just waiting for the fish to take the bait. Will this big fish from the Zhao family take the bait?
