Chapter 1500 1,498, The Mysterious Sixth Lady (2 In 1,1/120)
It was necessary to be sincere in paying respects to Buddha, and it was actually a form of respect to meet Buddha without any makeup.
The back door is on the way to the temple where the sixth madam is going, and it won’t disturb anyone else.
So every time she pays respects to Buddha, the sixth madam must start from the back door.
Ying Xianhe Ming has already arranged everything.
He arranged for a black car from the nine temples family to park at the back door.
When they officially arrived at the “Tian Xuan Buddhist temple”, it was already two hours later.
The scene in front of the temple surprised the two maids behind the sixth madam.
The riveted door of the temple was open, and the stone lion’s head on top of it kowtowed along with the surrounding stone walls, showing the mottled taste of time together.
The murals on the stone walls had been weathered by wind and rain all year round. Although the color had long dimmed, it had a rustic feeling and a sense of the times.
Tianxuan Buddhist temple was the most famous Buddhist temple in the East Mansion. Usually, even in the early morning, the visitors who came to visit had already broken through the threshold.
Xinghui of the nine temples arrived here at seven o’clock with two maids.
Under the preparation of He Ming of the immortal realm, the nine temples and the star-picking group jointly cleared the area and blocked off all the roads leading to the Buddhist temple.
They set aside an hour of dedicated Buddhist time for this sixth madam.
Along the stone walls of the temple, every three meters stood a member from the “Star picking group”.
These people were dressed in a uniform light blue monk’s coarse cloth, and each of them was equipped with Buddhist beads. They were in charge of the security and order work during the sixth Madam’s Buddhist ceremony.
There were hundreds of people in total.
This kind of lineup was the basic operation of the sixth Madam’s Buddhist ceremony every time she went out.
The other visitors could not enter. Although they had complaints in their hearts, they did not dare to express anything verbally.
They had to give face to the nine temples family and the star harvesters..
In a sense, when these two families joined forces, their face might be even greater than the Buddha in the Buddhist temple.
Some people became Buddhists to console themselves.
But if they wanted to live, they still had to be social people.
They had just been recruited by the sixth madam, and their foundations were very clean. The nine temples’starlight wanted to nurture the two of them.
“I brought you out today to let you get used to it.”
Before formally bowing to Buddha, the nine temples’starlight glanced at the two of them and said, “When you work under me, don’t make a fuss about anything. Don’t show that you haven’t seen the world, understand?”
“Yes, Madam.”
The two maids followed behind and nodded obediently.
“The two of you don’t have to follow me. I’ll leave the rest of the temple to you except for this hall in front of you. You must light three sticks in front of each Buddha statue.”
After passing through the door, the nine temples’starlight took out the incense sticks that she had prepared beforehand.
She handed two sticks to the maids in her hands and instructed them.
The two maids nodded and took their own bundles of incense sticks. They began to worship from the side hall.
The sixth madam saw the two of them leave from the corner of her eye. Immediately, a flame rose from her fingertips and ignited the incense sticks.
She slowly walked towards the main hall.
In the end, the figure disappeared through the main hall’s door..
..
“The sixth madam went to the Tian Xuan temple again?”
On the other side, Jiugong Xiushi, who was enjoying breakfast in the cherry blossom garden, heard the news from the one-eyed man.
If an ordinary person went to pay respects to Buddha, Jiugong Xiushi wouldn’t care so much.
However, the sixth madam was always imposing when she paid her respects to Buddha, which had long made Jiugong Xiushi unhappy.
However, the star picking team’s actions on Sun Island had always been high-profile, and this kind of overbearing style was actually their usual style.
The actions of the star seizer group seemed to be in line with the family style of the star Seizer Group. However, as their opponent on the surface, Xiushi Jiugong had actually been suspicious of this matter since a long time ago.
He felt that the sixth Madam’s actions every time she went to the Buddhist temple to pay respects to Buddha.
Seemed a little... unusual.
“Do you still remember a burglary that happened in the house before the sixth Madam married here?”
At this moment, Jiugong Xiushi frowned and said to the one-eyed warrior.
“Of course I remember.”The one-eyed warrior nodded.
Before he was transferred to be Jiugong Xiushi’s personal guard, he also worked as a guard of the Jiugong family.
The burglary that happened in such a heavily guarded Jiugong family was really fresh in people’s memories.
“Although at that time, the Jiugong family did not find anything stolen after checking, they only found a few signs that the door locks had been broken...”
At this point, the one-eyed man’s eyes darkened and he continued, “But these broken door locks all point to the underground sealed area of the main book of the ‘Ghost Book’!”
“That’s right! Although my father also suspected that it was a coincidence at first, these broken locks are really too coincidental.”
Nine temples Xiushi sat on the wheelchair, he said with a reminiscing look, “Our nine temples family has an area of about ten university campuses. The internal route is complicated. This was specially calculated by the array master. “There are a total of 132 mansions and more than 10,000 keyholes
“And to open this passage to the underground seal, you must open a specific 49 keyholes on the same day and use this to open it
“The keyholes change every day. Only the father who holds the clan head token knows the password. “On the day of the theft, there were 68 keyholes with pry marks, and 42 of them were the designated keyholes on that day.”
Upon saying this, Jiugong Xiushi suddenly smiled.
How could there be such a coincidence in this world.
There were 49 locks that changed their positions every day, and on the day of the theft, 42 of them actually hit.
Although a total of 68 locks had been pried open, it was obvious that this was probably a method that the thief was trying to cover up.
“Young master, you mean that the sixth madam might be related to this attempted burglary?”
“I don’t have direct evidence yet, but I have reason to suspect that the purpose of that woman marrying into our family is very likely to be for the main branch of the ‘Ghost Book’. “That’s why I’ve been asking you to investigate the matter of her going to the Buddhist temple to pray to Buddha.”
After saying that, Jiugong Xiushi pondered for a moment before continuing.
“Although ever since she married into the family, the sixth madam indeed appeared to be a woman who abided by the rules of womanhood and remained aloof from worldly affairs.”
“In fact, I still think that she went to the Buddhist temple. On the surface, she went to worship, but in the dark, she may have been plotting with the higher-ups of the star-seizer group
“Unfortunately, until now, there has been no trace of these things.”The one-eyed warrior sighed.
He had investigated the sixth madam many times, but every time, there was no particularly reliable result.
From the attempted burglary in the beginning, to the sixth Madam’s marriage to the nine temples, and then to the sixth Madam’s frequent visits to the Buddhist temple to worship..
Although the clues in the middle were broken, in terms of timing and coincidence.
The sixth Madam’s motives were impure. Nine temples Xiushi had seen through it long ago.
On the wheelchair, nine temples Xiushi frowned deeply.
“Moreover, she has been plotting against our Jiugong family for a long time. If an outsider were to come at this time, it might disrupt her original rhythm.”
“So, young master’s purpose of sending people to monitor No. 60 high school was actually to protect them?”
“Of course!”
Jiugong Xiushi nodded. “Since we’re going to carry out the kidnapping plan, then we must at least ensure their safety before they land on Sun Island. Otherwise, our plan to win over Miss Sun will be completely foiled...”
Although he was obsessed with the fight for the position of the family head, he had once been ruthless enough to set up a plan to kill Jiugong Liangzi.
But now Jiugong Xiushi discovered that perhaps his attitude toward sixth madam was the same as Jiugong Liangzi’s.
This woman was very dangerous.
Perhaps she was even more terrifying than Jiugong Liangzi.
A ferocious poisonous snake was not scary. What was scary was the silent poisonous snake lurking in the dark.
Usually, it would just sit there.
It looked like it was asleep.
However, no one knew when the poisonous snake would raise its head and bite.
The one-eyed warrior felt that things had become interesting. “Young Master Xiushi, do you think that the sixth madam will make a move on the plane?”
“Based on the sixth Madam’s personality, it is very likely.”
Jiugong Xiushi smiled bitterly and said, “However, this little mother of mine has always been patient. I just don’t know if she will take the bait this time.”
“Maybe.”
The one-eyed warrior frowned, “If we can make it look like an accident, if we do it well, we can indeed die without any evidence.”
“An accident... This seems to be the work of the star-seizer Group.”
Jiugong xiushi frowned, “So, are the people we sent reliable or not?”
“This is my capable subordinate, a nascent soul stage cultivator. He has received systematic training in the army and is very experienced. I think there won’t be any problems.”
“Mm, call him later and ask him about the situation. There’s not much time left before we board the Immortal Boat.”
“Yes.”
..
After successfully boarding the immortal boat, Wang Ling and the others were seated in the business class seats at the very front.
The seats in the business class were very spacious and comfortable.
Each person had a leather sofa with full-body massage and the ability to freely adjust the angle of their reclining position.
Massage... Wang Ling actually didn’t really need it.
His body was too dense.
Although he had used a light body technique to reduce his weight, his body was still as hard as iron.
Even a slight vibration of an alloy massage head on Wang Ling’s body could cause resonance and shatter.
The man who had been watching them in the lounge had just boarded the boat when he realized that Wang Ling and the others were all sitting in business class, and he instantly looked a little embarrassed.
“Miss... Can we upgrade? I want to upgrade business class.”
Thus, the man gritted his teeth and applied to the stewardess on the immortal boat.
“I’m very sorry, sir, but business class has already been booked,”the beautiful stewardess replied patiently.
“None left?”
“Yes, sir,”the stewardess replied.
Business class tickets on the immortal boat were very expensive, ten times that of economy class.
There were also very limited seats, only ten in total.
Although there were only Wang Ling, Wang Ming, and Lotus Sun in the business class right now.
But Lotus Sun obviously didn’t want their space to be disturbed by outsiders.
She knew that Wang Ling liked peace and quiet, and wouldn’t be used to strangers sitting next to him.
So the girl used what she thought wasn’t much pocket money to take over all the seats.
“Are there any first-class seats left?”
“Yes, sir.”
“Okay! Help me upgrade to a first-class seat!”
The Man didn’t give up. If he couldn’t get into the business class, he tried to get into the first-class cabin.
This was the cabin closest to the business class, and the key was that if he wanted to go through the business class, he had to go through the first-class cabin.
He was sent by Xiushi Jiugong. If there was a suspicious person, he would be able to detect it at a glance.
This was the last resort, but it was also a last resort.
Although there was no one else in the business class,.
For safety reasons, Wang Ming directly used the magnetic shield that Wang Ling No. 3 had brought with him to completely cover this area.
This was to ensure that no one else would be listening in on the conversation in the business class.
“Where did that person come from? He’s so sneaky, but he doesn’t seem to have any killing intent.”
Lotus Sun asked with relief.
This was the most intuitive feeling she had when using sword qi.
If the person was malicious, then ao hai would immediately detect his killing intent and issue a warning to Lotus Sun.
“If I’m not mistaken, it should be someone from the nine temples family.”
Wang Ming said, “I secretly took a photo of him in the lounge earlier, and then used the face screening system, which has access to international big data, to scan him. I found out that this person’s name is Wild Ling Mu, in the nascent soul stage. He used to be a member of the Sun Island self-defense force. After he retired, he’s now working for the nine temples family.”
“The second brother is amazing. You can even take a picture of him when he’s so well-hidden?”Lotus Sun smiled.
“It’s actually very easy to use the associative scanning mechanism. “Wearing sunglasses is actually not very useful. The scanning light from my photo can directly penetrate the sunglasses and shine on his eyes. “As long as we take one or two facial features and combine them with his actual body size, we can easily get facial data.”
As Wang Ming spoke, he stretched out his arm and rested his head on it, looking relaxed. “This person probably doesn’t plan to attack us.”
“In other words, he won’t attack us on the immortal boat.”
“If it’s an official member of the nine temples family in charge of protecting us, he should have communicated with us in advance.”
“From the way he looks, combined with his identity, he looks like someone from the nine temples family sent him here to protect us.”
Wang Ling:”...”
Lotus sun almost laughed out loud after hearing this.
With their current lineup, they didn’t lack protection at all!
Even without Wang Ling, it would be very difficult for ordinary cultivators to defeat Wang Ming with his current combat strength.
Moreover, because Wang Ming was traveling with them abroad this time, Huaxiu Alliance actually attached great importance to security.
In addition to Zhai Yin, who had come with them on the immortal boat behind them, they had also applied for special protection from battle sect.
In other words, it seemed that only four of them had participated in the exchange of students.
But in fact, there were thousands of soldiers and horses behind them.
“In any case, this is the situation. Since this kid isn’t moving now, we don’t have to bother with him.”
Wang Ming chuckled. “It’s possible that there really is another group of people who want to harm us. And this person might have gotten some news? But we’re on the immortal boat, and they’re too bold to make a move on us.”
“Are they trying to cause a plane crash?”
“Who knows.”
Wang Ming spread his hands.
He looked at Wang Ling at the side and smiled meaningfully. “I only hope that those people are at peace. After all, the ceiling of the cultivation world is right next to me right now...”
