Chapter 197

Facing such a crazy Zhang Youcai, Su Xiyun was speechless for a moment.

Su Qianyun's face on the side was ashen. If she hadn't cultivated well, she would have yelled at Zhang Youcai long ago. What kind of person is this? She is so despicable and vulgar. She is really a scholar in vain.She didn't want to see this man again, and felt that she had insulted her eyes.

She pulled Su Xiyun and left without even looking at Zhang Youcai. The corpses lying on the ground almost tripped her who was walking in a hurry, but fortunately Su Xiyun grabbed her with quick eyesight and quick hands.Looking at their embarrassment from behind, Zhang Youcai laughed maniacally.

At that moment, strong disgust surged in Su Qianyun's heart, she no longer hesitated, and pulled Su Xiyun away quickly, turning a deaf ear to the scolding and ridicule behind her.While walking in a hurry on the road, I saw a few nuns walking together.

After all, Su Qianyun's heart softened, or in other words, Zhang Youcai's identity as the nephew of Mrs. Su's natal family saved his life, because even though Su Qianyun was extremely angry, she still told the nuns about the situation there.At that moment, the nun called several people and hurried over together.

Baiyun Nunnery can stand out among so many temples and monasteries around the capital, and become the first choice for wealthy families in the capital to offer incense and petition. Naturally, it has its unique management method.No matter which monastery it is, if the pilgrims die here or have any accidents when they come to offer incense, it will be a huge blow to the nunnery or the monastery, and it is very likely that the reputation that has accumulated for a hundred years will come to an end.Baiyun Nunnery was no exception. When the nuns heard that there was chaos not far ahead and that something might happen, their expressions immediately changed and they rushed over.

After they left, Su Qianyun let out a long breath.

Su Xiyun looked back calmly, but it was a pity that there was no one behind her except the silent temple and the empty corridor.

Who are those men in black?Su Xiyun was very sure that Zhou Can was not by her side.Moreover, if those people were Zhou Can's subordinates just now, then they should have appeared by now, because I am their master.However, no one showed up.

Su Xiyun had never seen Zhou Can use the scimitar in those people's hands. She remembered that he and his men used long swords.

Obviously, another group of people saved themselves and Su Qianyun.

Who is it?
Su Xiyun looked back again, but still found nothing.

"Let's go, what are you looking at?" Su Qianyun's voice suddenly sounded, and Su Xiyun suddenly regained consciousness from her contemplation.

"Nothing, I was just thinking, shall we still go to the Princess's place?" Su Xiyun said with a smile.

Su Qianyun frowned, and said after a while, "Go, it's too early to go back now, and mother will get suspicious."

Su Xiyun looked up and found that the sun was warm and the sky was as clear as washing. It was indeed too early to leave now. She nodded and said, "Okay then, let's find someone else to take us there?"

Su Qianyun frowned when she thought of the innocent little nun who led the way just now.

Su Xiyun knew that she still had grievances about this matter in her heart, but if there was no one to lead the way, Baiyun Temple is so big, when will they find the courtyard where Princess Jingyi lives?Immediately she persuaded: "Don't worry, Zhang Youcai can't cover up the sky with one hand and bribe the entire Baiyun nunnery. I bet, except for the little nun just now, we can ask anyone."

Su Qianyun knew that what she said was the truth, and she also understood that if they didn't find someone to lead the way today, they would not be able to find Princess Jingyi's courtyard, so she reluctantly agreed.Su Xiyun breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately asked a passing nun to lead the way.

"The two ladies are going to find Princess Jingyi? Here, there it is!" The visitor was very enthusiastic, and when Su Xiyun asked where Princess Jingyi lived, he immediately stretched out his hand and pointed to the south.

Su Xiyun looked in the direction of her finger, and immediately found a quite majestic courtyard. There were many guards with guns walking around around the courtyard, and the security was very strict.

Su Xiyun knew at a glance that this must be the courtyard where Princess Jingyi lived, because the guards' costumes worn by those guards were unique to the county prince's mansion.The bright light on the armor almost hurt her eyes.

After Su Xiyun took a fixed look, she suddenly found a problem.

Here, it is in the opposite direction from the courtyard that the little nun who was bought by Zhang Youcai took them to before, one east and one west.

Before Su Xiyun could think about it carefully, the nun who brought them here bowed deeply to them and said goodbye.

Su Qianyun gathered herself together, and after carefully looking at the courtyard for a while, she cautiously went up to explain the purpose of her visit to the gate guard.Su Xiyun stood there and watched quietly, because Su Qianyun only gave her a back view, so she couldn't see her expression.

"I'm sorry, my princess has something to go out and is not in the courtyard at the moment. Please come back, two ladies." The guard at the door replied with a blank expression after hearing Su Qianyun's words.

Su Qianyun was extremely surprised. She and Su Xiyun had gone back and forth to find Princess Jingyi many times, but this was the first time they were "closed door".But no matter how surprised she was, she nodded politely, and then left with Su Xiyun.

What Su Xiyun cared about was not this matter.

Princess Jingyi came up the mountain with her sisters, and it took only an hour or two to rest in the courtyard. In such a short period of time, she didn't stay in the courtyard and went out?No matter how you look at this matter, it reveals endless weirdness.However, Su Xiyun only pondered in her heart, and did not tell Su Qianyun.

The two of them walked back along the way they came from, but within half a quarter of an hour, they suddenly ran into a group of people carrying soft bags. Su Xiyun took a closer look, and the person surrounded by many nuns was actually that Zhang Youcai, who had injured his leg, was grinning in pain while sitting in the soft pocket, feeling very uncomfortable.

Seeing his miserable appearance, Su Xiyun couldn't help but smile unkindly on her face.Then he pulled Su Qianyun and quickly dodged behind a tree.

Zhang Youcai was sitting in the soft pocket, only paying attention to crying out for pain, not paying attention to the scene in front of him at all.And those nuns who carried the sedan chair were always cautious because they were always afraid of hurting Zhang Youcai, so they never found out.

After they walked away, Su Xiyun and Su Qianyun appeared from behind the tree.

The two of them didn't dare to stay any longer, they just glanced at the direction they were leaving before turning around and returning to the third lady's yard from another road.

But God seems to have to make something up today.

Because the third wife suddenly moved the yard, Sister Su Xiyun is not very familiar with it, but this is her mother's yard, and it is not easy to ask others.The two sisters groped their way back, and they inevitably took a 'fork in the road'.

It seemed that the road was always flat when I came here, but when I came back, a tall and dense bamboo forest suddenly appeared in front of me.As soon as the wind blows, thousands of thick black bamboo leaves make a rustling sound, as if silently telling the silence of the mountain forest.

A stone-paved path winds in among the bamboo forests, and it is impossible to see where the depth leads.

Behind them were the palaces and courtyards, and in front of them were the quiet mountains and forests. Even a casual person like Su Xiyun couldn't help but let out a sigh of admiration.

But at this moment, Su Qianyun suddenly said: "Listen, there is a voice."

Su Xiyun immediately inhaled intently, and listened carefully for a while, with a hint of joy on her face: "It's the sound of spring water flowing!"

Su Qianyun seemed to have never heard the sound of spring water flowing. When she heard Su Xiyun say this, she had a strange expression on her face. She couldn't help listening to it for a long time. When she turned her head, she saw Su Xiyun's face On that eager expression.

"You want to go in and have a look?"

Su Xiyun blinked her eyes happily and said, "Don't you want to go in and take a look? I didn't expect that there is such a scene in this Baiyun nunnery."

Su Qianyun was a little hesitant.

Although Zhang Youcai failed to succeed, this incident had a huge impact on her. At this moment, Princess Jingyi is not here, Su Qianyun really wants to take Su Xiyun back to the third lady, because only in this way can she feel at ease.But seeing the longing expression on Su Xiyun's face, she couldn't say the words to go back.

But Su Xiyun saw through her thoughts, and said: "Second Sister, let's go in and have a look, and we'll be out soon, don't worry, what happened just now won't happen again." Having said that, she quietly moved to Su Qianyun's side Said: "Zhou Can has come back."

Su Qianyun naturally knew Zhou Can's identity.After hearing this, my heart moved.But soon she became suspicious, because she had been with Su Xiyun all this time, why didn't she know that Zhou Can was back?
Su Xiyun knew what Su Qianyun was thinking when she saw Su Qianyun's expression, and couldn't help but secretly smiled in her heart. Could it be that the secret guard must do something earth-shattering when he returns?
In fact, Zhou Can just quietly showed himself on the top of the tree for Su Xiyun to see and then disappeared.He moved quickly, and Su Xiyun was always looking for his whereabouts, the two of them quickly met each other tacitly, and after that, he quickly disappeared.Su Qianyun had always been upset by Zhang Youcai, so naturally she didn't realize this.

Seeing that Su Xiyun was so confident, Su Qianyun finally nodded and said, "Okay, it's fine to go in and have a look, but you must come out as soon as possible."

Su Xiyun smiled and said, "I see, Second Sister."

Only then did the two take steps and walked into the bamboo forest.

As soon as she entered, Su Xiyun immediately felt a chill all over her body, and the warm feeling of being illuminated by the sun disappeared immediately.She looked up and found that the bamboo forest was tall and dense, and it really blocked the sunlight.She couldn't help but chuckled, and lowered her head to look into the bamboo forest.

Suddenly, a woman's cheerful laughter resembling a silver bell resounded from the depths of the bamboo forest, causing echoes.

When Su Xiyun heard the laughter, her expression immediately changed, because she recognized that it was Princess Jingyi!
