MTL - Capture the Jade-Chapter 12

After Lin Chengyou said that, something popped out of his fingers, and the strange force under Jue Sheng's feet suddenly disappeared. He moved his sore feet, no matter how reluctant he was, he could only move it back honestly.

Qizhi was confused and followed behind, Jue Sheng did something good and was caught by his senior brother.

Depressed, Jue Sheng walked to Lin Chengyou and stood up, Lin Chengyou hooked his finger: "Take it out."

Jue Sheng obediently handed over the package, Lin Chengyou poured it out, and smiled when he saw it: "It's getting more and more interesting, and you all know that you are stealing the things in the temple."

Qizhi's eyeballs almost fell out: "Ah, there are so many worms that make you live better than death! Juesheng, what are you doing with this?"

The King of Chun'an County teased: "Needless to say, this must be the name of Ah Datong, Yu Fengyu, have you heard of this kind of monster?"

Yu Fengyu narrowed his eyes: "I have never heard of it. Little Prince, this is probably used to trick people again."

Lin Chengyou smiled and said, "It can prolong life if you cook it. If your old man likes it, I'll bring you a few later."

Yu Fengyu knew this child's temperament well, so he was so frightened that he said, "No, no, the prince should keep playing by himself."

Jue Sheng took advantage of this time to secretly wipe off his sweat, Lin Chengyou swept his eyes over, and Jue Sheng froze to the core.

"Who do you want to give so much to?"

"Teng, Madam Teng."

"Which Lady Teng?"

"The lady Teng who lent the sword to senior brother yesterday." Jue Sheng murmured, "Last night, when I asked Mrs. Teng about the situation in the bamboo forest, Mrs. Teng asked me to show her the itch bug."

His voice couldn't be lower, his head couldn't be lower.

The King of Chun'an County thought: "Miss Teng who was in Ziyun Tower last night... Could it be Teng Shao's daughter?"

Lin Chengyou stroked his chin, Mrs. Teng he naturally remembered that last night he and her worked together to seduce the old demon, he still remembered it, but he couldn't remember what she looked like. After thinking about it for a while, he realized that the girl Wearing a power fence at night.

"Then what?" Lin Chengyou stared at Jue Sheng.

Jue Sheng became more and more uneasy: "Ms. Teng said that her jade sword can't deal with our tickles. I was curious, so I promised to give her a few when I came to the door today..."

"Does she know the purpose of this itch bug?"

"Know... know."

Lin Chengyou snorted, very good, this was calculated on Qingyunguan's head, presumably because he saw that this silly boy was jealous of the jade sword, and deliberately used it as a bait to let the Holy Saint steal insects for her.

"She fooled you with just a few words?"

Jue Sheng hurriedly shook his head, and nodded again in shame.

"Have you ever thought that she deliberately showed you the jade sword just to get itchy bugs from you?"

Jue Sheng twisted his fingers ashamedly: "Miss Teng... she doesn't look like a bad person."

"Not like a bad person?" Lin Chengyou smiled instead of anger, "Do bad people write on their faces? You just met her once, and you don't even know her details. She casually used an emerald sword to bluff you. Just steal the tickles for her, next time she wants to see other treasures, won't you steal them out for her too?!"

Jue Sheng was so frightened that he was terrified. This time, his senior brother seemed to be really angry. He peeked at him while wiping his tears, but he found that there was no smile in his eyes.

He thought in a panic, senior brother can play tricks on others, but it is absolutely impossible for others to play tricks on him. Madam Teng not only coveted the things of Qingyunguan, but almost succeeded. Let it go.

"I'm dazed." Jue Sheng's tears fell, "I shouldn't steal the things in the hall just because I'm greedy for a magic weapon from outsiders. I, I, I did something wrong, no matter how my brother punished me Okay, I will never dare to do it again next time."

Lin Chengyou slipped Jue Sheng's collar and took him out of the scripture hall: "It's useless to make a verbal guarantee. If you don't punish you severely, you will be stupid in the future."

Qizhi was in a hurry, and his senior brother was angry. If he really wanted to be punished, it was not just as simple as copying scriptures and punishing him for kneeling.

He hurriedly chased out with his Taoist robe: "Senior Brother, Senior Brother, Mrs. Teng was able to help us out last night, Jue Sage has always valued friendship, so it's probably because of the desire to repay that she couldn't bear to refuse, so just read in Jue Sage. For the sake of the first offense, forgive him this time."

Lin Chengyou snorted: "You don't have to rush to intercede for him, it will be your turn soon. Last night, on the festival, you and Jue Sheng sneaked out privately, watching hundreds of dramas and chewing roasted pork skewers. You were very happy."

Qizhi covered his mouth and almost forgot about it. After they were caught last night, the senior brother had already used the opportunity to set up the formation to punish them not to eat meat and fish for a year. Code, the next move is waiting here.

In fact, in the past, senior brothers often caught them breaking the precepts, but senior brother himself was an unruly person, so most of the time he turned a blind eye. I was almost taken advantage of by a little lady.

Jue Sheng cried: "Today's events are all because of me, and I went out with abandon wisdom when I went out last night. I beg senior brother to punish me alone, please forgive abandon wisdom."

Lin Chengyou smiled and nodded: "Okay, you can excuse each other, anyway, every time you excuse each other, add one hundred more each!"

The two bit their tongues in horror.

Lin Chengyou took them straight to the most secluded Yunhui Hall in Guanli, a huge hall, surrounded by bookshelves that reached the sky on all sides.

"Give me a good kneel first."

Jue Sheng and Qi Zhi fell into a ball, sobbing while nervously following in the footsteps of their senior brothers.

Lin Chengyou conjured something out of nowhere, patted it in the palm of his hand, and slowly walked towards them.

The two of them shivered. This is the ruler that the master used to teach the senior brothers. This thing is dark and heavy, and it will leave deep bruises when it falls on the body.

In the past, when the senior brother got into trouble, the master often took out this heavy ruler, but when the roar returned to the roar, the old man was not willing to fight it even once.

His Royal Highness Cheng Wang was different. As long as he heard that his brother had made trouble, he would definitely come to personally punish his son with this ruler, and his brother was beaten a lot.

Jue Sheng and Qi Zhi hugged each other and cried, what should I do?

"Take your hand out. Don't want to be punished? Well, then I'll change it." Lin Chengyou gestured to turn around.

"I'm willing to be punished." The two hurriedly stretched out their hands. Anyway, they couldn't escape a beating. The ruler was always stronger than other strange punishment methods.

"Senior brother, did we know something was wrong, woo woo woo."

"What's wrong?"

"The disciple has violated the first and seventh precepts in the view."

Qizhi cried, "This disciple has violated the second and seventh precepts."

"Going out of the temple privately, deceiving the teacher, stealing the things inside the temple, eating inside and outside, what else are you afraid to do? In my opinion, there is no need to punish, and you will be directly expelled from the teacher's door!"

As if struck by lightning, the two of them took a few steps on their knees and hugged Lin Chengyou's legs: "Brother, punish us severely, please don't drive us away. We were born from Qingyunguan, and died as ghosts of Qingyunguan."

"Let go." Lin Chengyou frowned in disgust.

The two refused to let go: "If we leave, who will accompany your little leopard to play in the future? Who will accompany the senior brother to set up the formation? After the master looks back, who will make the old man's porridge..."

Lin Chengyou was unmoved: "raise your hand."

The two of them raised their hands high, but after waiting for a long time, the ruler did not fall into their palms. The two felt strange when the senior brother suddenly picked them up again, opened his eyes, and couldn't tell the senior senior brother. Annoyed black eyes.

"Jiechi, one person gets five hundred, and one person needs to be locked up for three months."

Before the two could be happy, a basin of cold water was poured over their heads. The so-called "confinement" was a small quiet room, less than five feet wide, like a cage.

Those who were sentenced to confinement would face a scroll of scriptures every day, and copy from morning to night. Because there were no windows, they didn't even have the chance to take a break.

One month can be boring, and three months is enough to turn a person into an idiot.

It's useless to plead for mercy, who told them to suffer for themselves, and this is better than being expelled from the division.

They fell to the ground, weeping and crying: "The disciple is willing to receive the punishment."

Lin Chengyou changed his words: "But—"

Juesheng and Qizhi each stuffed a fat fist into their mouths and waited anxiously.

"I remember that you still have important tasks today, and I will give you a chance to make up for your faults. If you do well today, you may be exempted from confinement. If you do not do well, you will come back and be punished honestly."

Juesheng and Jizhi never imagined that they would survive in a desperate situation, and nodded violently while crying. This tossing was more terrifying than direct punishment, and in the future, they would never dare to steal the contents of Guanli to outsiders.

"You still go to Teng Mansion according to the original plan, and after seeing Mrs. Teng, do as I said." Lin Chengyou turned around and pointed to the bookshelf, "Take down the "Wuji Bao Jian" first."

Abandoning wisdom, he stood up and patted his knees, then tiptoed to take out the book that was spread out.

Jue Sheng looked over, and he was familiar with this book. It recorded the most treasures of Taoism in the world, from the treasure of Lilong to the seal of the city god. It can be said that there is nothing without it, even His Royal Highness Chengwang's famous one. "Chixiao" is also on the list.

The scroll is open, and it can be seen that the senior brother has already checked it after he looked back.

"Ms. Teng's jade sword can slash the flesh of monsters, and I want to come here, but I have searched the "Wuji Baojian", but I can't find any records about this sword. Her grandfather, Teng Shao, returns every year. Chang'an debriefing, if he gets such a sword, there will be some rumors in Chang'an City, but even Qingyunguan has never heard of this sword, so it can be seen that Lady Teng may not have gotten it from her grandfather, you directly ask the sword The origin, she may not be willing to tell the truth, you go today and use my method to get her words out."

Jizhi and Juesheng murmured in their hearts. Senior brother did not know how many rare treasures he had seen since he was a child. Although this emerald sword is rare, compared to those treasures in the view, it is only a hair’s breadth. I don’t know why senior brother is so interested.

Lin Chengyou seemed to know what they were thinking, and patted their heads lightly with a ruler: "Last night in Ziyun Tower, after Zhongsha emerged from the ground, they once abandoned you and me, and turned to chase the group of people under the corridor, At the time, I thought they were running towards the wounded, but I remembered later that those evil creatures were all transformed by grass and trees. The things that attracted them strongly. After thinking about it, among those people, only one emerald sword was the most special."

Qi Zhi wondered and scratched his head: "No, when encountering such a magic weapon, Shamei often can't avoid it, how can it take the initiative to join it?"

"If something goes wrong, there must be a demon, so we have to figure it out."

The two nodded, a little puzzled in their hearts, just wanted to know the origin of that sword? It doesn't seem to be in line with senior brother's style to spare Mrs. Teng just like that.

Lin Chengyou looked up at them, and suddenly smiled: "Besides, there is one more thing."

After listening to Lin Chengyou's explanation, Jue Sheng and Qi Zhi had their little faces tangled, and knew that offending their senior brother would not end well, but they were too busy to take care of themselves, so how could they dare to intercede for Lady Teng.

"But, but Mrs. Teng doesn't seem to be so easily fooled."

"Not fooled? I ask you, what does she want?"

The two said blankly, "I want bugs."

"..." Lin Chengyou, "You say that worms are worms. Since there is greed, I am not afraid that she will not be fooled."

He smiled maliciously, daring to count his things, he really knows nothing.

The two kept Lin Chengyou's words firmly in their hearts, and when they came out, they found that the robes on their bodies were soaked.

Back at the scripture hall, An Guogong greeted him with a cane: "The old man has already measured the size of his wife's feet."

While talking, he handed the paper with the footprints to Lin Chengyou. As soon as Lin Chengyou took it, the Prince of Chun'an put down the tea cup and said, "The lady Teng that Jue Sheng said just now is Teng Shao's daughter?"

Lin Chengyou deliberately said, "Who?"

The Prince of Chun'an County said: "Don't play stupid, I understand it all. Teng Shao has saved my life. You can trouble others, but don't trouble the Teng family."

Lin Chengyou made a "hiss" in his mouth, touched his forehead with his hand, and frowned deeply.

The Prince of Chun'an County smiled angrily: "Look at you, you are like this every time you talk about serious things."

Lin Chengyou squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth: "Yu Fengyu."

Prince Chun'an's expression changed, Lin Chengyou's expression was obviously not right, An Guogong threw off his crutches and was busy to help Lin Chengyou, but one step too late, Lin Chengyou held his forehead and fell down.

Jue Sheng and Qi Zhi rushed up with a single stride: "Senior brother, what's wrong with you?"

Yu Fengyu said in a hurry, "The eldest son has suffered from an old illness. Last night, when the sage heard that the young eldest son was injured, he was worried about it for a long time. He didn't expect to fall ill so soon. Quickly, quickly help the eldest son to the couch."

The Prince of Chun'an supported Lin Chengyou and said in a deep voice, "In the past, it didn't happen until April every year, why is it so many days earlier this year?"

Juesheng and Qizhi were in a state of anxiety. Last night, the senior brother injured his heart when he fought against the old demon. After returning, they have not made time to check their injuries. They were worried that the senior brother would affect the old disease, but they did not expect this delay. Happened.

Lin Chengyou closed his eyes tightly, and in the blink of an eye, his white forehead was already covered with beads of sweat. The onset of this disease was fierce and urgent. It was like a sharp awl was stirring in his head, and the pain was unbearable. Endless.

He rolled over on the couch, unable to speak in pain, but fortunately his mind was still awake. Before he lost consciousness, he reluctantly raised his arm and pointed to his front.

Jue Sheng and Qi Zhi saw it clearly, and anxiously took out a jade dew bottle from Lin Chengyou's clothes.

Yu Fengyu just opened the medicine box with trembling hands, and his eyes lit up when he saw it: "Quick, quick to open it up for Shizi to take."

After taking the medicine, Yu Fengyu took out a pack of silver needles and told the king of Chun'an County, "Your Highness, help the little prince, and don't act rashly when applying needles."

Lin Chengyou's face was pale, and he didn't say a word. In just a short moment, his clothes were sweaty inside and out, and now he can barely hold himself, but if the pain continues, it is impossible to guarantee that he will not lose his mind and struggle.

The Prince of Chun'an had a solemn expression and supported Lin Chengyou according to his words.

The people in the room were worried, but luckily the treatment was timely. After Yu Fengyu gave the last injection, Lin Chengyou's eyebrows finally stretched out.

An Guogong wiped his sweat: "Okay, see you."

The King of Chun'an County breathed a sigh of relief: "The attack happens every year, and every year I have to be frightened by this kid. I can bear it, and I never say a word when it hurts. But today's attack is too sudden, and it happened before March. If it weren't for Yu Fengyu being here, you would have suffered!"

Lin Chengyou lay on his back on the couch, put his back on his forehead lazily, and said with a smile, "The pain is over ahead of schedule, and there will be no more pain in March."

The Prince of Chun'an turned his head to look at Duke An and Yu Fengyu: "Look at it, it hurt like this before, and when I look back, it's like no one else. I just let him hurt for a long time. Yu Fengyu, there is no cure for this disease. Is it?"

"How to cure it? It's not easy to have a way to restrain it."

Lin Chengyou rolled over and sat up, and Chong Juesheng and Qizhi waved their hands, meaning that he was alright and wanted them to go to Teng Mansion to do business quickly.

Jue Sheng and Qi Zhi endured for a while. Seeing that the senior brother laughed freely, they said goodbye and wanted to leave. At this time, the side room door suddenly opened, and the two old guards hurried out and said, "It's not good, senior brother, Dinghunxiang is flickering. Suddenly extinguished, and the heart-clearing talisman is almost used up."

Everyone was startled, An Guogong hurriedly looked at Lin Chengyou, Lin Chengyou restrained his smile, rushed to Jue Sheng and Qi Zhi and waved: "You two don't go first, write a few pieces of Qingxin Talisman before leaving." side room.

Juesheng and Qizhi spread the cinnabar and inkstone on the table, one to grind ink and one to write characters.

Yu Fengyu and Prince Chun'an couldn't help, so they had to stay in the main hall.

Yu Fengyu put the silver needle into the box and asked the Prince of Chun'an: "His Royal Highness just mentioned the removal of the root cause of the disease, but Yu did not even know why the little prince got this disease. If Your Highness knows the reason, can you explain it in detail? Say."

Juesheng and Qizhi were stunned for a while. Senior brother's illness came and went like the wind. In the past, they had been kept in the dark. It was only when they accidentally bumped into senior brother's attack the year before, they realized that senior brother had a serious illness.

Later, they heard that the disease was not caused by the fetus, but the root of the disease caused by the indiscriminate use of spells by the brother when he was eight years old.

But they still don't understand why the brothers practice that spell so well.

The King of Chun'an County glanced at the closed side door and smiled slightly: "This matter is a long story, and Chengyou has always been the most taboo for others to mention his fault."

Yu Fengyu said: "Yu did not intend to inquire about his privacy, everything was for the sake of curing his son's illness. After today's incident, His Highness should also understand that tabooing the disease and avoiding the doctor will never remove the root cause of the disease. Daoist Qingxuzi is not in Chang'an now. The sage entrusted the illness of the prince to Yu. Although Yu knew that the prince had a chronic illness for a long time, he was still at a loss as to what happened in those days. This time he made a mistake and explained it in time. Who knows what will happen in the future? So, Your Highness doesn't have to worry, just tell Yu about the cause of the disease. When the prince comes out, Yu will ask again in person."

The Prince of Chun'an waved his hands and smiled: "Don't ask, he won't say anything if you kill him, but what Yu Fengyu said is right, the cure needs to be traced back to the source, and it's not right to hide it blindly, if that's the case, then I will Let me tell you what I know, and I hope I can find a way to get rid of the root of the disease as soon as possible, and save myself from suffering every year."

Jue Sheng and Ji Zhi subconsciously pricked up their ears.

The King of Chun'an County scooped up a spoonful of light-colored tea soup with a silver fence, and held the sleeves of his robe to pour tea for Yu Fengyu.

Jue Sage and Abandoned Wisdom did not dare to come out. King Chun'an was the younger brother of King Cheng, but the two brothers were not from the same mother. In those days, King Lan married another successor, Chun'an County, many years after the death of his original spouse. The king was born from the successor. His name was Lin Min, and he was called Min Lang. He was sixteen years younger than King Cheng.

Because of this, although the Duke of Chun'an is the uncle of the senior brother, he is only a few years older than the senior brother. When he gets along with the senior brother on weekdays, he is not like the elder but the elder brother.

Every time I see the King of Chun'an, Juesheng Qizhi thinks that he is fragrant and as tender as jade, but the King of Chun'an is notoriously slow, and this time was no exception. The two waited and waited. , never waited for him to speak.

Yu Fengyu sipped the tea slowly, and didn't seem to be in a hurry. Seeing that a cup of tea was about to be drunk, the King of Chun'an County said leisurely:

"It's a long story. When Chengyou was just born, Daoist Qingxuzi gave him a divination, saying that everything went well for Chengyou, but the marriage was not going well, and he would be cruel to a certain little lady in the future. He stumbled hard, and the matter could not be solved. This matter was originally hidden from Chengyou, but he did not expect that Chengyou would learn to divination when he was seven or eight years old. The hexagrams calculated by his master back then were the same.

"Chengyou didn't want to believe such a thing, so he went to find Daoist Qingxuzi to give him a fortune-telling.

"Daoist Qingxuzi categorically refused, and also scolded Chengyou. Chengyou guessed that there was a difference, and after practicing for a few months, he made a divination, but it was still the same hexagram."

Speaking of this, the Prince of Chun'an laughed: "Chengyou happened to be studying in Chongwen Hall at that time, because he didn't believe what the hexagrams said, so he gave himself a divination if he had nothing to do, but it was a pity that the result was the same every time. There is no airtight wall in the world, his actions in private have been seen, and those friends who often play with Chengyou always make fun of him.

"Not long after that, Chengyou accompanied Princess Cheng to the Lin'an Marquis Mansion for a banquet. The old marquis was a veteran of the three dynasties, and it was the year of Yiyi. When the sage heard about this, he personally rewarded the old marquis with greetings. Therefore, on that day Not only did most of Chang'an City go to celebrate, but also many officials from other places to celebrate their birthday. That is, in the Marquis of Lin'an, Chengyou met a girl doll from Yangzhou.

Yu Fengyu said, "A female doll from Yangzhou?"

The Prince of Chun'an County hummed: "I don't know whose family that girl doll belongs to, she's only four or five years old, she doesn't like to talk, she holds a shabby little puppet in her arms, I heard that she is very beautiful, and she speaks with a Yangzhou accent. At that time, Chengyou and his friends were playing in the garden and got tired of archery and wrestling, so he proposed to play hide-and-seek in the garden."

The author has something to say: Chongwen Museum is not as close to the people as Guozijian, and generally only accepts royal family members.
