Chapter 18 Resentment
"Jin Ping and Yin Ping, all you can eat in the inn now is steamed buns. Let's fill our stomach first and eat well tomorrow. What's wrong with you..."
Mu Guiying entered the guest room with steamed buns, closed the door and turned around, and saw Jin Ping and Yin Ping standing aside. They looked sad and had tears on their cheeks. Mu Guiying was stunned and looked at the two as she put the steamed buns in her hand on the table.
Jin Ping bit her lip and looked at the ground, daring to look at Mu Guiying. Yin Ping lowered her head at first, but when she heard Mu Guiying's inquiry and saw that her sister did not answer, she raised her head and muttered, "Sister Ying, you are going to send me and my sister to the Taoist temple."
"Why do you ask that? Oh, you eavesdrop on me..."
"No, no. My sister didn't eavesdrop, it was me. I wanted to go out to help Sister Ying get food and see Sister Ying talking to the Taoist priest. Then, I heard the Taoist priest persuade Sister Ying to send us to the Taoist temple.
Without Mu Guiying's words, Yin Ping took the wrong 'eavesdropping' on herself. After that, the voice became smaller and lower, and looked at Mu Guiying's face praying, but Jin Ping's face began to look sad. Mu Guiying really couldn't laugh or cry with their expressions.
However, if you think about it carefully, you can't blame the two sisters. Jin Ping is only 12 years old this year. No matter how sensible she is, she is just a child. Yin Ping is one year younger than Jin Ping, not to mention. The two have just been abandoned by their biological father. They must lack a sense of security and are in a very ** stage. Now it is not surprising to hear the dialogue between Mu Guiying and Yan Taoist priest.
Mu Guiying thought for a moment, sat at the table, picked up the steamed bun, took a bite, and said easily, "I'm not an unspoken villain. If I told you to take you in, I will definitely 'throw' you halfway. Come and eat steamed buns. It will be cold and not delicious in a moment.
Hearing Mu Guiying's words, Jin Ping immediately looked at her, hesitated for a moment, and then asked tentatively, "Sister Ying, is that true?"
"Of course it's true. Why should I lie to you?"
"What Sister Ying said is that Yinping and I are both poor and have nothing to cheat. However, Sister Ying, the Taoist priest..."
"What's wrong with the Taoist priest?"
Seeing that Jin Ping wanted to say something, she immediately said, "It was the Taoist priest who came to our village and said that my sister's life was fierce, which not only killed my mother, but also implicated the villagers' poor harvest."
"Oh?" Mu Guiying's eyes turned around and remembered something. He asked, "Has anything happened before the Taoist priest went to your village?"
"No." Yin Ping shook her head after thinking about it, but Jin Ping suddenly opened her eyes wide and said, "I remember. Before the Taoist priest came, a little lady also came. She said that Yinping and I have good qualifications and high understanding. It's a pity to stay in the village and should follow her to learn art. However, I wanted to stay and take care of my father, but I didn't agree. I can't get there, but my father took me and Yinping..."
"Well, that's all in the past. Don't think about it anymore. Come and eat steamed buns and sleep well when you are full. Tomorrow morning, we have to go.
"Sister Ying, it may be that Jin Ping and Yin Ping are really in bad life. Otherwise..."
"Okay. You forgot, I said it before. My life is too good, easy to attract God's jealousy, and let me live too short. I'm lucky to meet you. Eat steamed buns quickly. Haven't you been hungry for a long time?
Listening to Jin Ping's narrative, Mu Guiying understood that Jin Ping and Yin Ping did not know that Yan Daoshi had taken a fancy to them, and everything after that had been planned by him for a long time. Up to now, the two sisters have thought that their lives were really bad, so they were sold by their biological father.
When I met such a pair of 'bitter' sisters, I also knew that someone was peeping at them. Of course, Mu Guiying, who was a tom boy in his previous life and had a sense of justice, would not stand by. However, the Taoist priest has done so much that he will definitely not let Jin Ping and Yin Ping go like this. But who is Mu Guiying? Just before she fell asleep, a smile appeared in her mouth.
In the morning, just after dawn, Jinping and Yinping got up. The two forgot that they were not at home and didn't have to get up early to cook and go to the farm. Hearing the sound of the two getting up, Mu Guiying was also embarrassed to sleep in and got up under the apologetic eyes of the two sisters.
"Since we got up and have breakfast, let's go. By the way, can you ride a horse?
"Sister Ying, our sister's family is very poor. How can we see a horse, let alone ride a horse."
"That's it." Mu Guiying thought for a moment and said, "Then we have to hire a carriage. After dinner, let's hire a carriage to set off.
"Everything is at the command of Sister Ying."
Mu Guiying nodded and went out of the guest room with Jin Ping and Yin Ping. When she passed by the strict Taoist room, she found that the door was open and Xiao Er was cleaning up inside. Obviously, Taoist priest Yan had already left, but Mu Guiying took care of it.
After breakfast, under the guidance of Jin Ping, Mu Guiying came to the car and wanted to hire a carriage. Unfortunately, when the drivers heard that they were going north, they all shook their heads and refused. In desperation, Mu Guiying bought a carriage when he heard that Jin Ping had helped the villagers drive the ox cart before. In the surprised eyes of those drivers, Jin Ping drove the carriage out of Xingzhou.
There is a war in the north, so there is almost no one on the way. Mu Guiying and the other two were very leisurely, looking at the scenery while chatting. But I didn't expect that half an hour after coming out of Xingzhou, there were either broken tree poles or many big stones in the way.
Seeing that Jin Ping and Yin Ping's faces slowly darkened, Mu Guiying asked Jin Ping to stop the carriage and rest for a while before continuing to travel. Coincidentally, there was a river not far away, and Jin Ping and Yin Ping went to get some water and stayed on the road to drink. Mu Guiying sat on the grass next to the carriage, waiting for the two of them.
"Little lady, it seems that poverty is really predestined with you."
The familiar voice made Mu Guiying immediately turn around and saw a person coming out of another path. It was the strict Taoist priest. Seeing him, Mu Guiying immediately understood who had blocked them from moving forward. Thinking about this Taoist priest, it's really haunting. We have to find a way not to let him follow. Who knows what he will do next.
"It turned out to be a Taoist priest. What a coincidence."
"Yes. What? Yan Taoist priest looked at Mu Guiying's face, immediately stepped forward and said anxiously, "Little lady, it seems that something bad has happened to see your face. Fortunately, these are just small things. However, if you don't listen to the advice of the poor, things that don't go well will happen one after another, and things will become more and more serious.
"Sister Ying, just listen to the Taoist priest's advice. Yin Ping and I went to the Taoist temple and won't continue to hurt you.
Mu Guiying was thinking about countermeasures. He didn't pay attention to when Jin Ping and Yin Ping would come back, and he also heard the nonsense of Yan Taoist priest. Encountering everything on the road made the two more and more believe that their fate was not good. If you don't go to Taoist temples and shrines, it's too easy to harm people.
Seeing that Jin Ping seemed to have lost her anger and Yin Ping's frightened expression, Mu Guiying turned her head angrily. Just as he wanted to blame the strict Taoist priest, Mu Guiying happened to catch the pride that flashed in his eyes. Yan Taoist priest immediately returned to his face, but how unnatural his expression was. He seemed to know it himself, so he turned around and looked at the distance, looking tall.
On the side of the strict Taoist priest, Mu Guiying saw two swords behind him. Look at the hilt of the sword, it should be two ancient swords. Thinking about the conversation between Yan Taoist priest and the sister Huang, Mu Guiying immediately said, "Oh, Taoist priest Yan, why am I so familiar with the two swords behind you?"
"How can this be possible? These two swords are the swords that my master has collected for many years and have not been taken out for decades. How can you be familiar with them?
As soon as Yan Taoist priest heard Mu Guiying's tone, he immediately turned around and didn't let Mu Guiying continue to look at the sword behind him. But Mu Guiying refused to let go and quickly ran behind the strict Taoist priest, and the strict Taoist priest immediately jumped aside. The two of them chased me and hid by the carriage and turned around. Jin Ping and Yin Ping beside them didn't understand what was going on and looked blank.
Soon, Taoist priest Yan felt that it was inappropriate, so he stopped and said angrily, "Little lady, what's the reason why you tease the poor Tao so much?"
"Taoist priest." Mu Guiying saw that the time was almost over. She walked to Jin Ping and Yin Ping and raised her voice, "What is the reason why you have taken so much effort to deal with the two little women?"
Hearing Mu Guiying's rhetorical question, Yan Taoist priest's heart jumped, his eyes dodged, and he said hard, "I don't know what the little lady is talking about. Poverty is a good way..."
"The Taoist priest is a 'good-hearted' apprentice, but he doesn't know what is hidden behind this 'apprentice'. However, since the Taoist priest can get these two swords, there is nothing he dares to do.
Mu Guiying doesn't know where these two swords came from, and he doesn't know what purpose he has to accept Jin Ping and Yin Ping as apprentices. He just wants to test it vaguely with words. Unexpectedly, after listening to this, Taoist priest Yan's face suddenly changed greatly.
"Who the hell are you?" Taoist priest Yan stepped back a few steps before asking fiercely.
Mu Guiying saw Yan Daochang's posture and understood that he was also a strong martial arts person. He quickly protected Jinping and Yinping behind him with one hand and touched his waist with the other hand. Then, he smiled and said, "The Taoist priest does not cultivate his mind, and he is evil everywhere. And I am the person sent by God to be against the 'demon way' like you.
" shut up, bitch, let's see how the Taoist priest made you splash your blood on the spot." As he spoke, Yan Taoist priest pulled out a sword behind him and flew forward to stab Mu Guiying's chest.
This sword came fiercely and had to protect the two sisters, so Mu Guiying did not dodge. Because of the strict Taoist priest scolding her little bitch, Mu Guiying was so angry that she put her hand around her waist and quickly slid to the Taoist priest. At the same time, Mu Guiying also shouted:
"You are so bold, let's see how I deal with you..."
