There is a starving ghost in Qingyun Temple

Chapter 41 West Trident 01
But even with such a hidden whereabouts, it was still discovered by the Western Trident.

The sky is slightly white, the morning frost is foggy, and the cool breeze is soaking it.The weather has indeed cooled down.

The caravan group set off in a hurry again.

Shen Huihe and Shen Qing sat on the carriage at the front, while Prince Jingbei's magnificent carriage sat at the end.The caravans and horses were rushing around for several days, and everything was relatively uneventful along the way.

"Elder brother, there are many bright guards with high martial arts skills ahead, and there are also extremely concealed secret guards guarding the entire road. What is the background of this Prince of Jingbei? Is he a powerful person from Chang'an?"

Shen Huihe folded the talisman paper in his hand boredly, but after a while he folded out a golden paper crane, and asked accidentally.

Shen Qing whispered: "Ah He still remembers the Battle of Helan Mountain five years ago?"

She shook her head, nodded and said: "Remember, remember, which Zhou people can forget such a tragic and humiliating defeat. I heard that the [-]-strong army was trapped in the enemy's trap, and the entire army was wiped out, with no survivors."

"Well, Prince Jingbei was the only one who survived at that time."

Shen Huihe raised his hand and threw out the paper crane in his hand. The crane flapped its wings and flew away.

"I see."

"Ah He, this person is a powerful person, please don't lose your etiquette."

"I know, I know, don't you understand me, senior brother? Of course, I can bend and stretch. It's important to save my life."

Shen Qing smiled, not worried at all.

That night, everyone camped and rested on the spot in an open area, and piled up seven or eight match racks in front of them.

The Prince of Jingbei was considerate of the fact that everyone had been working hard all night long and even encountered danger unexpectedly a few nights ago. Fortunately, the two Taoist priests saved the day.Therefore, the prince will reward everyone by roasting the whole sheep today, and hopes that all the brothers will do their best to protect the things they are escorting.

The fire was burning fiercely, the sky was blazing and the earth was blazing.It adds a lot of vitality to the cool autumn weather.

On the wooden shelf, there is a cut-up lamb that is strong, fat and thin, and is now roasted to a golden, oily brown color.The smelly grease dripped on the firewood, and clusters of flames suddenly burst out, blinding people's eyes from time to time.

Shen Huihe sat down cross-legged, licked his lips, and held one side of his jade cheek with one hand. His eyes were full of the fragrant mutton, mutton bone and leg, which he was feasting on.

"Elder brother, how could the Prince of Jingbei be so merciful? He even prepared good meat and dishes for us servants, how rare it is!"

Shen Qing smiled noncommittally and looked up at the gorgeous carriage behind her.The carriage was silent, and the gentleman inside neither got out of the carriage nor called anyone to deliver food.

"Elder brother, I've been crawling around in this caravan for several days. Why doesn't Prince Jingbei call for anyone to come and see me?"

"The prince usually lives in seclusion and rarely shows up. This is not surprising. However, I have never heard of any rumors of him being harsh on his servants or being cruel and cruel. If Ah He goes to visit him in the future, there is no need to panic."

"Yeah, I understand."

Shen Huihe quickly stood up and helped the bodyguards on one side turn over the thick lamb body. Now he estimated that he only needed to bake the back side for another half-quarter of an hour before he could eat it.

After a while, Shen Qing handed her a clean plain handkerchief, asked her to wipe her hands, and then handed her a large piece of perfectly grilled piping hot lamb chops.

"Ah He, it's a bit hot, please eat slowly."

"Okay, okay, thank you, senior brother."

Shen Huihe ate it with relish. After finishing a large piece of lamb chop, he was still unsatisfied.She looked up at the escorts and guards around her, pursed her lips, and still held back her appetite.Seeing her obedient and forbearing look, which was very different from usual, Shen Qing couldn't help but chuckle: "Ah He, why don't you eat?"

"Forget it, I just have to satisfy my appetite. These escorts and guards are working even harder. And when I go back to Qingyun Temple, I can eat as much as I want."

"Ah He has gone on a few far journeys, and he has become a lot wiser."

The young lady raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "That's not true. I want to indulge in the lamb chops and wontons cooked by the third junior brother! It tastes so good just thinking about it!"

As the night progressed, several piles of firewood crackled slightly, and the flames gradually faded, flickered and extinguished.

Shen Huihe turned over in a daze and opened her eyes suddenly. The figure of her senior brother Shen Qing was no longer beside her.She stood up quickly, and just as she walked a few steps toward the three or four carriages in the open space in the distance, a black shadow suddenly flashed beside her.

She was startled, lowered her voice and exclaimed: "S-Senior Brother?!"

Shen Qing landed beside her and shook the gilded Sanqing bell in his hand towards her.The copper bells in the Sanqing Bell were buzzing, trembling and shaking violently——

Shen Huihe lowered his eyes, made a gesture with his hands, and opened his red lips slightly: "This turbid and violent energy is quite strange. It is coming from all directions, and it is getting more and more intense."

Shen Qing nodded slightly, woke up the two bodyguards and Captain Hu, and ordered them to arrange manpower to be on guard at all times.He led Shen Huihe to retreat to the front of the three or four carriages.

Shen Huihe looked back at the carriage frame and frowned slightly.

"Senior Brother, the iron box in this carriage——"

"Master Miaoyuan, the prince is awake and has sent his subordinates down to ask what the situation is like?" Guard Captain Hu hurried over and interrupted her question.

"I'm afraid it's not optimistic. Please ask the captain of the guard to strengthen the defense."

Shen Qing waved her sleeves, held a black umbrella and walked back and forth around the three or four carriages in the middle. The tip of the black umbrella flashed with silver light and cut through the sky, tracing the ground gently along the grass as he walked.

Biaotou Chen and Biaotou Liu returned to guard in front of the carriage, both looking confused and anxious.

"What are you doing, real person?"

"Master, Taoist nun, we can't waste any more time. We must—"

Shen Huihe kept watching his senior brother's movements, with a slight smile on his lips. He raised his hand to signal the two of them to calm down: "Please be patient, my two escort chiefs. Senior brother is thinking of a solution."

When the senior brother stopped walking, she waved her sleeves and threw out four yellow talisman papers, which flew away in four directions.

They are respectively located in the four directions of Qian, Kun, Kan and Gen.

In fact, senior brother just drew a complete Bagua picture on the grass.Qian is the sky, Kun is the earth, Kan is the water, and Gen is the mountain. We rely on the mountains and rivers of heaven and earth as a weapon and as a protection to resist the invasion of evil and foul air.

Shen Qing stood on the Kun position in the Bagua Diagram, closing her eyes and meditating, sensing the sinister aura coming from all directions.

"what"

"What the hell?"

"Ah! There's something on the ground. There's something on the ground."
