Wei Xiyue saw the three little ones squeezing into the box.
Wei Xiyue thought for a moment, hugged her walnut jar, and crawled in.
The two brothers came out after changing their appearance and got into the carriage.
In the past, the two brothers would definitely have sensed that a few little fellows were hiding in the box.
However, the two of them had taken the poisonous pills and their five senses had become less sensitive. Now was the time when their consciousness was a little chaotic.
The carriage drove all the way to the Holy Maiden Temple.
Wei Ting took out Uncle Han’s token at his waist.
Uncle Han had sent goods to the Holy Maiden Temple for so many years, but nothing had ever gone wrong. The Holy Maiden Temple did not suspect anything and let the carriage go.
Although Uncle Han was an outer sect deacon of the Holy Maiden Temple, he could not walk around the Holy Maiden Temple casually.
Under the lead of a female disciple, the two of them drove the carriage to the storeroom.
The female disciple opened the copper lock of the storeroom with a key and said to the two of them, “Move the things in.”
Wei Ting and Ghostfear alighted from the carriage and pulled open the back door.
Before unloading the goods, the two of them exchanged glances.
Su Xiaoxiao had heard with her own ears that that person had been moved from the Book Storage Pavilion to Qionghua Hall, but along the way, they did not discover the plaque with Qionghua Hall written on it.
The Holy Maiden Temple was too big. The Qionghua Temple might not be in this area.
Thinking about it, it was not strange. That person was so important. The place where he was imprisoned must be a place more well-hidden than the Book Collection Pavilion.
After moving the goods, they had to leave.
It was not easy for them to come in. They had to think of a way to stay.
As they were thinking, a shout came from not far away.
“Let’s wrap up! Let’s wrap up!”
It was a man’s voice!
The two of them looked back and saw that there were many pavilions and straw sheds built on an empty space separated by a small garden. It could not be considered a coincidence. It was obvious that they were temporary. They would have to be demolished after being used up.
The brothers exchanged an unspoken mutual understanding.
Although the two of them did not have internal strength for the time being, it was not a problem to move a few boxes.
However, just as they moved down, the two of them sensed that something was wrong.
One of the boxes was clearly heavier than the others. There was even a mark at the corner of the box. It was definitely not made of clothes.
It seemed that Uncle Han had given something to the Holy Maiden again.
It was more important to find that person. The two of them did not complicate matters and moved the box into the storeroom.
This place was filled with clothes, and there were also many new clothes of the female disciples of the Holy Maiden Temple hanging on the wall. It was terrifying at a glance in the night.
In order to stall for time, the two of them dawdled for a long time.
The female disciple who led the way was a little disgusted.
A man who did not know martial arts was useless. It was so difficult for them to move a box.
The last box had been moved, and the craftsmen who set up the stage and shed had long left.
The female disciple led them back,
Wei Ting suddenly looked in the direction of the pergola and said, “Is the roof of that shed about to collapse?”
The female disciple followed his gaze. “What’s about to collapse?”
Wei Ting raised his hand and pointed. He said worriedly, “Counting from the west to the east, the third one. It’s obvious that the shed isn’t stable. If it rains tonight, it will definitely collapse!”
It had been raining heavily in the southern border.
Today, the Saintess had observed the stars at night and indeed deduced that it would definitely rain heavily within three days. In order not to affect the holding of the Holy Selection as scheduled, she ordered someone to build these sheds.
“Really?” The female disciple was a little hesitant.
Wei Ting said, “If you dont believe me, I’ll go with you to take a look!”
The three of them left the carriage where it was and came to the third shed that Wei Ting had mentioned.
Ghostfear shot out a hidden weapon without a trace.
Without internal strength, his speed and strength would be greatly reduced, but to a powerful sacrificial soldier, even wrist strength was enough.
“I’ll shake it for you to see.” Wei Ting raised his hand and held the pillar to shake it casually.
Boom!
The shed collapsed!
The female disciple’s expression changed.
“What were those craftsmen doing? They’re going to be used tomorrow! A group of useless people! They haven’t finished their work and are gone! I shall report to the Saintess!”
Wei Ting smiled. “There’s no need to trouble the Saintess with such a small matter. The roof of this shed is quite sturdy. Perhaps the person who set up the shed is a newbie and it’s not firm enough. How about this? I’ll set it up again for you and check the other sheds.”
The outer sect deacon was in charge of these external chores. In fact, Uncle Han was the one who introduced those craftsmen.
The female disciple thought that he did not want to be punished by the Holy Maiden and did not suspect him.
“Are you sure you can stabilize it?” the female disciple asked skeptically. “I’m sure. After I’m done, I’ll bring you to check them one by one.”
Uncle Han was running an errand for the Saintess, and the female disciple was
not willing to offend him. “How long will it take?”
Wei Ting probed, “Two hours…”
The female disciple frowned. “That long? The Holy Maiden Temple is closed. No, you have to finish it in an hour!”
Wei Ting agreed calmly. “Alright, an hour it is!”
“Then I’ll go report to Emissary Lin first. I’ll come over in an hour to bring you out.”
The female disciple did not specially instruct him not to walk around. After all, Uncle Han had been an outer sect deacon for so many years and knew the rules of the Holy Maiden Temple like the back of his hand.
As soon as she left, Ghostfear was about to take action.
Wei Ting grabbed him. “Brother, where are you going?”
“Look for the Qionghua Hall.” Ghostfear glanced at Wei Ting, who did not seem to want him to go. “Stop dawdling. There’s only an hour.”
Wei Ting pointed at him and then at himself. “I know it’s only an hour, but don’t you think that if we wander around the Saint Lady Temple like this, we’ll be killed by those experts as assassins in less than a hundred steps?” Ghostfear frowned. “Then what do you think we should do?”
Fifteen minutes later.
In the storeroom.
Ghostfear’s expression was indescribable. “Are you sure you want to do this?” Wei Ting’s lips curled up. “Brother, do you have a better way?”
Ghostfear endured the humiliation and looked at his female clothes. He gritted his teeth and put on the big red flower that Wei Ting handed over.
Wei Ting was about to suffer internal injuries from holding back his laughter. He had picked the red flowers as an improvisation. There was no need to wear them.
However, since his brother liked it, he would give it to him.
The two peerless great beauties left the storeroom.
The literal meaning was beautiful and the literal meaning was great.
Not long after the two of them left, Emissary Lin brought a few trusted disciples to the storeroom.
She got someone to carry the marked box to Qionghua Hall.
Then, Emissary Lin went to the Holy Maiden’s bedroom.
The Holy Maiden sat cross-legged on the bed. Her veil was lowered, covering her beautiful appearance.
Emissary Lin bowed. “Saintess, the things have been sent to Qionghua Hall.”
“Yeah.”
The Holy Maiden replied indifferently and waved her hand through the hazy veil.
A female disciple came to Emissary Lin with a porcelain bottle.
Elder Lin took the porcelain bottle. “This is the last medicine, right?”
Actually, it should have been the last one yesterday, but the Holy Maiden found two strange traces of charcoal on the wall of the secret room of the Book Depository Pavilion and suspected that someone had been here.
Perhaps that person had not been fed the medicine that night.
But it didn’t matter. If she added one tonight, the effect would be the same.
Emissary Lin said excitedly, “After tonight, it’s done. I congratulate the Holy Maiden in advance. With the help of the God of War, it’s only a matter of time before you succeed!”
The Holy Maiden did not like these flattering words and asked Emissary Lin to go to the Qionghua Hall to feed that person the last medicine.
The four little ones slept soundly in the box and woke up in darkness.
Wei Xiyue pushed open the lid of the box and a clear night pearl shone over.
Wei Xiyue, Dahu, and Erhu climbed out of the box.
This was not an empty secret room, but more like an exquisitely decorated house.
It was just that it was too unfamiliar to them.
Xiaohu climbed halfway and ruthlessly got stuck on the box. “Xiaohu is not coming! ”
Wei Xiyue carried him down.
He scratched his head. “Where? Where’s Mom? Where’s Stinky Daddy?”
“There’s someone on the bed,” Erhu said.
Dahu and Wei Xiyue were the boldest.
Xiaohu was a little afraid and did not dare to go over.
Wei Xiyue carried him over.
Xiaohu was speechless.
Erhu followed his brother and ran over.
The four of them stood by the bed. From left to right were Wei Xiyue, Xiaohu,
Dahu, and Erhu.
The four of them looked at the man on the bed without blinking.
The other party was motionless. It was unknown if he was asleep or dead.
Xiaohu grabbed Dahu’s finger and poked the man in the face with it.
Dahu was speechless..
