After being scumbag with the paranoid villain, I failed to escape

Chapter 124 Royal Sacrifice

"It's just a personal hobby. When did my second brother start caring about such trivial matters? Besides, in my eyes, I don't think it's that shameful."

After speaking in a cold voice, Lou Huai didn't want to stay any longer. He didn't even exchange polite greetings with Lou Heng, so he looked sideways at Lou Wan and asked him to push him in.

Lou Heng stood there and listened to the sound of rain falling on the paper umbrella. He remembered Lou Huai's nervousness about the rabbit puppet just now. He narrowed his eyes and ordered his subordinates to enter the Jiutan Temple gate:

"Let's find out who gave him that rabbit stuffed animal."

Now that Lou Huai has come back from the dead, the jade ring that fell down the cliff with him at that time can be somewhat discernible.

Lou Huai had no idea what happened behind him.

After Lou Wan pushed him into the Zen room that had been prepared in Jiutan Temple, and after exiting, he immersed Zuo Weiyue's puppet body in the hot water basin prepared in advance and scrubbed it vigorously.

Zuo Weiyue was confused by him. Her rabbit stuffed doll wasn't too dirty. Is it necessary to give her a bath in such a cold weather?

Even if she just washes her, why do she wash so hard? I don’t know. I thought she just fell into the mud.

Seeing that it had been washed once, Lou Huai wanted to change the water again. Zuo Weiyue couldn't bear it anymore. Wuyu pressed his rabbit arm against his right hand and asked him: "Muggle Lou, what's wrong with you? Do you need to wash it?"

Are you so serious? I’m not dirty either!”

Lou Huai seemed to be persuaded by her, and finally stopped pouring water, and instead wrung out the water on her doll, and took her to the charcoal stove to dry it.

While drying, he pursed his lips and said, "If you were touched by him, it means it's dirty. I don't like his breath still on you."

Zuo Weiyue: "."

She also asked why, just this outrageous reason?

After being speechless, she remembered the strange feeling she had just after approaching Lou Heng. She originally wanted to talk to Lou Huai, but then she heard the wooden door being clicked, and Lou Wan's voice came in from the outside: "Master, Mr. Si is here."

When the royal carriage procession from the Imperial City to Jiutan Temple was traveling, ordinary people's carriages were not allowed to get in the way, so Si Yi went up to Jiutan Mountain half a day in advance and waited at the temple.

After following Lou Wan's guidance and entering the meditation room, she discovered that Zuo Weiyue seemed to be controlling her puppet body to warm herself over the fire.

As of today, the recovery of his eyes has reached 70%. Except for some blurriness when seeing some things, he basically has no visual impairment, but he still holds the blind stick in his hand.

Mainly, it is to deceive others and make some people with ulterior motives relax their vigilance against him.

"Wuyou. No, it's time to call you by your real name. Brother Lou Huai, what are you...?"

Lou Huai helped Zuo Weiyue lift the drooping rabbit ears so that the inside of the ears could be baked by the charcoal fire, then lied: "I'm just giving Xiaoyue a bath, what's the point?"

Si Yi didn't quite understand why it was necessary to bathe Zuo Weiyue's doll body in such a cold day, but he didn't worry too much. After frowning for a moment, he sent him to Jiutan Temple half a day early, but found nothing.

The news was told to him.

"There are many monks in the temple, not counting some who go down the mountain to do work. If we continue like this, it will take a lot of time to find useful information, but my father only gave me seven days to pray. Brother Lou Huai

, do you have any good ideas?"

Of course, Si Yi's coming to the capital this time needs to be reported to Si Xiangpeng, the city lord, in advance.

After all, his identity is unusual, and it would be really troublesome if he was caught and threatened by someone with ulterior motives.

At first, Si Xiangpeng disagreed, but after hearing that Si Yi wanted to come to Jiutan Temple to pray for his deceased biological mother and aunt, he finally relaxed.

But even so, they still felt uneasy and sent some people to escort Si Yi to the capital, and also gave him a restriction that he must return to the City of Eternal Cold within seven days.

That's why he was so anxious to find Lou Huai to find a solution.

Hearing this, Zuo Weiyue told Si Yi the method she had told Lou Huai before.

"This method is indeed feasible, but Brother Lou Huai is not going to participate in royal sacrifices these days, so he shouldn't have much time to help me with things, right?"

The royal sacrifice is held at the sacrificial temple located due east of Jiutan Mountain. Members of the royal family who go here need to stay for at least three days to chant sutras and pray for their deceased ancestors.

Therefore, it is true that Lou Huai cannot stay in Jiutan Temple to help Si Yi investigate.

"Otherwise, how about I stay here with Si Yi during the day and then go find you at night, Lou Muggle?"

She has magical power that can help Si Yi. Although Lou Huai can also help Si Yi in some aspects, it is not as useful to her in the end.

Besides, Lou Huai's current status and situation are not suitable for staying in Jiutan Temple for too long.

The more she thought about it, the more Zuo Weiyue thought it was feasible, and even nodded her head.

Lou Huai wanted to refuse, but thought that if Si Yi could get some leverage to bring down Si Shaowen, Zuo Weiyue's task of luck value for him could be completed quickly, and she could also have a new form and get

More magic power is returned.

After much hesitation, he finally agreed to Zuo Weiyue's suggestion.

But before going to the sacrificial temple early the next morning, she repeatedly told Zuo Weiyue that if she encountered any trouble that could not be solved, she must contact him as soon as possible using the bond in her mind.

After receiving Zuo Weiyue's assurance, he left in a somewhat depressed mood.

Lou Huai was not around, so Zuo Weiyue's rabbit puppet was physically inconvenient and could only get into Si Yi's collar.

After the royal members who temporarily stayed at Jiutan Temple left last night, the temple, which was originally extremely crowded, suddenly became much emptier.

In addition to the sound of rain hitting the roof, there was also the sound of monks chanting sutras and knocking wooden fish in the temple. The entire temple became extremely quiet.

The place where Si Yi and Zuo Weiyue went directly was the kitchen used as a fasting room in Jiutan Temple. Because there were many monks in the temple, there were also many rice-headed monks in the kitchen.

As the young man walked through a long corridor with few people, holding a jade blind stick in his hand, Zuo Weiyue asked in a low voice, "Si Yi, why do you want to start in the kitchen?"

Although she had been following Lou Huai for a while, she had gained a lot of ideas.

But sometimes, it's still hard to keep up with the brain circuits of these ancient aborigines.

She thought that Si Yi would start with the abbot of the temple, but she didn't expect that he would go to a place like the kitchen first.

"Because generally people who work as head monks in temples are not too young and know the most things. After I arrived here yesterday, I haven't had time to come here to test it out."

Zuo Weiyue didn't know much about ancient temples. After listening to his explanation, she understood, and the small kitchen was already in front of her.

Lou Huai: My wife is dirty, please wash her off.
