2225 What kind of luck is this?
Tai state’s Qiyun mountain was very famous, and the Qiyun temple on the mountain was also very famous. In the great Zhou, the reputation of the Qiyun temple was second only to the National Guard temple outside the capital.
....
Gu Xin and the others were currently at the Qiyun temple on the Qiyun mountain.
Qiyun temple was very large, built on the top of the mountain. There were many monks in the temple, and there were many visitors to the temple.
Although it wasn’t the first or fifteenth day of the new year yesterday, there were still dozens of visitors who stayed here.
Other than Gu Xin’s group of six, there were seven other families. Four of these seven families were from wealthy families in the city of Thailand, and one of them was the mother and wife of the local governor Lin. They had brought more than a dozen servants with them.
One of them was a family of businessmen that Gu Xin had met before. His surname was Qin and his family business was very big. He had previously paid his respects to the king of Dong Lin and was very close to third master Bai. When he arrived, Gu Xin was offering incense to the king of Dong Lin, so she had seen him before. Master Qin was a filial son. He had come to xiyun temple with his mother. There were eight people in total, including the mother and son and The Six Servants.
The other family was the family of the mountain elder of the Tai State College. The mountain elder’s surname was Feng. His family was quite large, like the Gu family, which was not separated from the main family. The mountain elder’s wife and her aunts had brought the Feng family’s daughters to the Qiyun temple to pray to Buddha and eat vegetarian food. They had stayed there for a day. This family had the most people. The three madams had three servant girls and three old women. They brought a total of seven unmarried girls, ranging from twelve to fifteen. They had seven servant girls by their side. In addition, they rode a total of five carriages, so there were five Coachmen. This family had nearly thirty people.
The other state capital only had a grandfather and a grandson. They were the old mother and the young daughter of the owner of the largest rice store in the state of tai. The grandfather and grandson brought three servants with them, an old woman, two servant girls, and two Coachmen. The old lady of this house believed in Buddha, and would come to the Qiyun temple to stay for a few days every month.
As for the other three families who did not live in the state capital, one of them was a young couple. The wife had been found to be pregnant this month, and the couple had specially come to the Qiyun temple to fulfill their wish. They were from a county town slightly further away, so they needed to stay the night at the Qiyun temple.
The other two families were a pair of sisters from the same county. Their mother was seriously ill, so they made an appointment to come to the Qiyun temple to pray to Buddha and pray for Bodhisattva’s blessing so that their mother would be cured soon. They were both married, so they brought their daughters with them this time.
Other than this group of people, there was no one else at the Qiyun temple last night. They were all monks from the temple.
Gu Xin and Zheng Qiu turned around and returned to the temple. Gu Xin said as she walked, ” “Bai Yi, Bai er, you guys keep an eye on the outside of Xi Yun temple. From now on, no one is allowed to enter or leave. Fatty w.a.n.g, go and drive the carriage, quickly go down the mountain and find your uncle to send people over.”
“Third young lady, we didn’t come by horse carriage!” Fatty w.a.n.g whose entire body was still sore said.
“Can’t you just go to the stables and find one? Forget it, just stand guard here and shout for white s.h.i.+rt when you see him. Second white, go find a horse in the stables and quickly go down the mountain to the Yamen and ask Lord Liu to send someone over.”
Second white immediately carried out the order.
Fatty w.a.n.g heaved a sigh of relief. It was much better to guard the temple’s door. He didn’t need to move. If someone wanted to come out, he would shout for Bai Yi. With Bai Yi’s skill, he would quickly slide over and grab the person.
Tsk, a case on the second day of his job, what kind of luck was this!
