Chapter 226: Going in Person
Jiang Yishi sat on the head of the kang, looking out the window as the sun slowly dipped in the west.
Hua Hua was also unusually honest, lying at the end of the kang and snoozing.
In the morning of that day, Monk Wu Ban met Marquis of Zhennan’s son, Zhao Yuanhui, who was praying for his late mother’s blessing at a temple, and the two of them had a pleasant conversation.
The monk did not follow Zhao Yuanhui into the capital, but led by Zhao Yuanhui into the western mountains to see the scenery.
Monk Wu Fan was tall, with a high nose and deep eyes, a purple-red face, a Zen staff, and a purple monk’s robe. He spoke Chinese, just not very well.
Above his head hovered a large black eagle with a torch-like gaze, “ga ga”, sometimes high, sometimes low.
They came to a stop in front of a steep and high peak deep inside.
There were more than two hundred people and dozens of hunting dogs.
A small head bowed and cupped his fists to Zhao Yuanhui and said, “Master Shizi, the spirit beasts have not come out of the mountain.”
Zhao Yuanhui pointed at the mountain peak and said, “The spirit beasts don’t know where they are hidden there, our people have not found them, so we have to guard them outside the mountain.”
There was a trace of a smile on Monk Wu Fan’s face, and the Xuan Eagle that landed on his shoulder pointed at the peak and whistled.
The Xuan Eagle received the order and spread its large wings and flew towards the peak. It first hovered over the peak for more than half a moment before rushing down into the forest.
About two moments later, the great eagle flew out from the mountain peak. Even though the big eagle flew very high, people on the ground could clearly see that it was carrying a plum blossom deer. The deer was more than two hundred pounds, its antlers were long and stretched out, and its body was twisted and still alive.
The big eagle flew to the top of the head of the monk, the beak loosened, and the deer fell down.
The people standing beside monk Ufan were all scared and backed away, but only monk Ufan did not move a muscle. When he saw that the deer was about to fall to the ground, he reached out to catch it and bit down on its neck.
The deer kept struggling, hissing, and shedding tears. More than half a quarter of an hour later, the deer stopped struggling, head hanging down.
Ufan Monk sucked deer blood, threw the deer that was not yet dead to the ground, Xuan Eagle fell to the ground to enjoy the food.
Even Zhao Huiyuan, who had seen the world, dry-heaved a few times and hurriedly took out a handkerchief to cover his mouth. It turned out that if monk Wufan wanted to drink the blood of a spirit animal, the one that was sent to him had to be a living creature.
Monk Wu Fan used the back of his hand to wipe away the blood around his mouth, his expression not quite satisfied.
“The one that can attract Lao Na to come all the way here is the thousand year old red headed turtle. This deer doesn’t have much aura, but it has lived for more than a hundred years more.”
Zhao Yuanhui said with great shame, “We discovered the thousand year old red headed turtle trail two years ago, and accidentally let it run away when we were catching it. That old turtle was really cunning, and our people searched for more than a year in Shengzi Bay and Changzhong Island, where it had haunted, and have yet to find it.”
He described the Red Headed Turtle again, which made the Wu Fan Monk extremely longing for it.
Not wanting to give up on the Red Headed Turtle, Monk Wu Fan said, “You take Lao Na there, and if the Old Turtle is still there, the Xuan Eagle will surely catch it. As long as you catch the old turtle, I promised you all the conditions will be honored. If you don’t find it,” he glanced at the deer on the ground that had already been eaten by the Xuan Eagle, “I’m sorry that I can’t fulfill those two things.”
Zhao Yuanhui was extremely frustrated in his heart. He almost caught that old turtle and had it run away again. King Ying and Your Highness were very angry and reprimanded his old father and him several times for not doing his job properly.
Thought there was a hundred year old spirit deer to give away, but the old god monk was obviously not satisfied ……
Hearing that the Wu Fan Monk wanted to personally go and find it, Zhao Yuan would be happy again. Seeing the Xuan Eagle’s performance just now, it wasn’t normally powerful. As long as the old turtle was still hiding in those two places, it could definitely be found.
He clasped his fists and said, ”I will accompany the divine monk on his journey. However, it is already late at this time, please have the divine monk return to the temple to rest for the night and enter the capital tomorrow, my father has long admired the divine monk and has always wanted to discuss Zen with you. The day after tomorrow we leave for Gum Sea.”
Monk Wu Fan shook his head and said, “First go and seek the red-headed turtle, then we will talk about other things.”
The next day in the middle of the day, the old master came to the Floating Life Residence to drink tea again, and told Jiang Yishi about yesterday’s events, and also said that Zhao Yuan had already accompanied Monk Wufan himself this morning to go to the Gum Sea to see the scenery.
The old master’s face was full of smiles, ”Monk Wu Fan should be dissatisfied with the Spirit Deer, or else he wouldn’t have personally gone to the Gum Sea to look for the Red Headed Turtle. Oh, it’s fortunate that we released it into the deep sea earlier.”
Their people didn’t dare to get close, but the Xuan Eagle flying in the sky with the Plum Blossom Deer in its mouth was still seen.
Hearing that the Wufan Monk and the Xuan Eagle had temporarily left the outskirts of the capital, Hua Hua, who was squatting on the side eavesdropping on them, finally relaxed, and her little body stretched out straight all of a sudden.
In the past two days, it hid in the house every day, not even dare to go out. Sleep also dare not sleep to death, the slightest movement will jump up in fear, first use the paw to touch the fragrance avoidance beads, and then burrow into the bottom of the bed.
Jiang Yishi still can not relax, eyebrows slightly wrinkled, eyes full of worry.
The old master was helpless. His granddaughter-in-law was about to give birth, and he didn’t want her to worry. But his granddaughter-in-law knew everything, if he didn’t tell her, he was afraid that she would think too much about it and it would be even worse for her body. This time, the resignation of ink with people quietly tracked the Wu Fan monk went to the Jiaohai, simply do not dare to tell her ……
And comforted her a few sentences, “Do not think too much, we have several sets of response programs, that woman is also within our surveillance, our family will pass smoothly ……”
Jiang Yishi touched her big belly and nodded. If Wufan Monk didn’t find the Red Headed Turtle, it would be good to go straight back home. There’s also Resignation Mo, who didn’t return home on his day off yesterday, she guessed that he must have followed Wufan Monk to Jiaohai. This is a difficult task, follow close will be found, follow far from the role can not work ……
Alas!
With the old man gone, the midwives came back to check Jiang Yishi’s body.
A few days ago, the two midwives had lived in the back hood room of the Floating Life Residence.
The midwives touched Jiang Yishi’s stomach and said, ”The position of the fetus is correct, and the fetus is growing very well, it’s just growing too fast. Great grandmother should walk around more and eat less, the fetus is too big to give birth ……”
These days, Jiang Yishi has been walking more and eating less, but the fetus just grows fast, the big belly is quite high, even the toes of the feet can’t be seen when walking, and the legs are swollen. She can’t sleep well, and needs help to turn over, so now Sister Wu has been sleeping in her bedroom.
She knew that she would definitely suffer some sins in labor.
She asked Hua Hua about her former owner, and Hua Hua said that her former owner had given birth to five children, each over eight pounds. Every time the former owner gave birth to a child, it hurt so much that she cried like hell, but with the light beads protecting her body, she was safe in size.
She is not afraid of having accidents when giving birth, but she is afraid that accidents will come to her door when giving birth, and she is even more worried about Meng Zhimo’s safety.
The days of waiting were hard, and the days still slipped into the middle of April. The date of the birth was getting closer and closer, Meng Zhimo had not yet returned, and it was not known whether the monk Wu Fan would come to the capital.
Jiang Yishi’s heart is getting more and more panicked, even if she can’t stop suggesting to herself that Master Yu He said that as long as she wears the Fragrance Avoidance Bead, she will be able to obliterate the public, and that the little thing and the light bead in her stomach won’t be discovered. Meng Zhimo will not be in danger, he said he will protect his wife and children and the people he wants to protect, he is not likely to go into danger, will not be too close to the Wufan Monk …….
But Jiang Yishi was just panicked.
