Chapter 666 Yunshen’s Unknown Background
“See, your husband doesn’t care about you at all. Look, I only hit him once. It means that he isn’t distracted by your disappearance!”
Lin Mengya and Qinghu, in disguise, were sitting in a tea stall by the road, watching the carriages, where the mesdames were in, moving forward like ordinary onlookers while whispering.
Qinghu was juggling two cooked taros. He had given Long Tianyu a hint by throwing a raw taro at him as Lin Mengya told him.
It was not easy for him to seize an opportunity to launch a sneak attack on Long Tianyu.
But he only hit the perverted guy the first time.
Well, it seemed that the guy really didn’t care about Lin Mengya’s safety!
“Stop it. If you’ve seen enough of it, turn around quickly. If we’re discovered, we will be in deep trouble. Besides, you should feel glad that you could hit him once. Have you forgotten the painful lesson you’ve learned?”
Lin Mengya smiled and glanced at Long Tianyu, who was stunned after being hit. Then she lowered her head and took a bite of the sweet taro with white sugar.
She and Qinghu came back on horseback, so they arrived here earlier than those carriages.
In fact, from Long Tianyu’s expression, she could tell that Long Tianyu was quite freaked out.
Otherwise, with his martial arts and agility, how could he fail to avoid being hit by such a big taro?
She narrowed her eyes and carefully savored the sweet and soft taro in her mouth.
She had gotten used to Qinghu’s sowing discord, but she did not know why Qinghu did not like Long Tianyu.
There was nothing that she could do about it.
“Sob, sob, sob. Since my girl got married, she had only cared about her husband and not listened to me.”
It was not until Lin Mengya rolled her eyes at Qinghu that he finally stopped pretending to be an aggrieved mother.
After carefully peeling off another taro for Lin Mengya, he watched her eating it joyfully with a little surprise in his eyes.
“Hey, young lady, I’m wondering why someone, that has all kinds of costly foods every day, like you want to eat this kind of food for poor people?”
Lin Mengya shrugged and refused to answer Qinghu.
It was a secret between her and Long Tianyu, and it was romantic to keep it between them.
“Speaking of which, didn’t you promise on the way to tell me about Yunshen? Anyway, no one knows us now, and there are no spies around. Just tell me, lest I keep thinking about it.”
Finally, Lin Mengya put down the taro she had been eating for a long time and stared at Qinghu for fear that he would renegue his promise.
“Well, in fact, I’m not afraid of Yunshen. I avoided talking about him before because he is one of the eight elders of the Candle Dragon Cult. Although he is the least significant one, he has a mysterious Buddhist incense. Therefore, all the members of the Candle Dragon Cult are in awe of him.”
Lin Mengya fell silent when she heard the words of Qinghu, who rarely talked in such a serious tone.
Another matter was related to the Candle Dragon Cult!
What was more, she didn’t expect that Yunshen’s Buddhist incense had something to do with the Candle Dragon Cult.
In this case, why did he deal with her?
Could it be that someone in the infinitely powerful Candle Dragon Cult had found out her identity?
However, it should be impossible for anyone other than herself to know her soul travel.
If that was the case, why could Yunshen’s Buddhist incense make her soul tremble?
“Do you know what Yunshen’s Buddhist incense is made of?”
Lin Mengya asked tentatively. As of now, she still had to hide something from Qinghu.
Fortunately, Qinghu seemed to hate Yunshen bitterly. He just frowned and tried hard to recall the things about Yunshen, so he did not notice Lin Mengya’s effort to hide something.
“Yunshen is said to be the disciple of an eminent monk and had a glorious time earlier. However, he somehow became a member of the Candle Dragon Cult. It is said that his Buddhist incense is made of human beings in an extremely strange way. He seems to be a handsome guy in his thirties. However, it is said that he is more than 60 years old this year and his way to stay young is eating the internal organs of girls.”
Lin Mengya almost threw up and glared at Qinghu with a pale face.
Were the members of the Candle Dragon Cult all perverted?
They, who used either human blood or human organs to stay young, were simply frenzied!
“Moreover, he specially eats the uterine walls, which must come from 17 or 18-year-old girls, as he believes that only in this way can he remain young forever.”
Qinghu must also despise this kind of person, so he talked with a frown and exactly the same disgusted expression Lin Mengya wore.
The uterine wall? Wasn’t it part of a womb?
All of a sudden, Lin Mengya felt a chill run down her spine and regretted that she had only broken an arm of that evil monk that night.
Moreover, she had promised Wuchen to save Yunshen at the crucial moment.
A person like Yunshen deserved a death even more tragic than being killed by dismembering the body!
“Besides, his Buddhist incense is strange. He’s the only one among the numerous members of the Candle Dragon Cult who has it. This thing is extracted from the blood and skin of innocent girls. I only heard that this Buddhist incense can manipulate people and deprive them of all their memories and emotions without causing their mental retardation. Now, the Candle Dragon Cult uses his Buddhist incense to manipulate the newly adopted children, who will eventually become killing machines only acting on the instructions of the Candle Dragon Cult. Moreover, these children can never get their memories back. Therefore, they will not have the slightest mood swing even in front of their biological parents.”
Hearing Qinghu’s words, Lin Mengya heaved a sigh of relief in secret.
It turned out that the Buddhist incense was used to deprive people of their emotions and memories.
In this case, she could probably understand why her soul became uneasy before.
All of her memories were rooted in her soul.
Her memories in modern times and the memories of the former owner of this body were actually stored in her soul.
If Yunshen tried to erase her memories, it meant that he had to eliminate her soul at the same time.
Although she was reluctant to accept this explanation, it was obviously the most appropriate explanation at present.
“What’s wrong? Did he tried to manipulate you with it?”
Suddenly, Qinghu nervously grabbed Lin Mengya’s hand and asked anxiously.
Returning to herself, Lin Mengya nodded and comforted Qinghu.
“Although he did, it didn’t work on me. Speaking of that, let me show you something, and you’ll understand.”
For the time being, Lin Mengya could not explain this kind of mysterious thing in a scientific way.
Nevertheless, there was one thing she was sure of. The capability of Master Yunfang’s relic she wore in making the Buddhist incense lose its efficacy indicated that there was the law of karma in this world.
It was an eternally immutable principle that good would always triumph over evil.
Lin Mengya respectfully took out the relic, held it in her palms and showed it to Qinghu.
The latter intended to pick it up with a doubtful look, but Lin Mengya slapped his hand away and cautiously put it back into her purse, where she had kept it.
“Don’t touch it. This is a Buddhist treasure, and ordinary people have no access to it. With its help, Yunshen, a Buddhist disciple, naturally failed to manipulate me. But he’s really detestable. I’m wondering how many people he has killed over the years so that he could maintain his appearance. No wonder I smelled rotten corpses from him. A person like him will die a violent death sooner or later.”
After Lin Mengya finished her words, Qinghu nodded in agreement.
Although his hands were also stained with blood, he had never done this kind of disgusting thing. Lin Mengya said, “I now know why you hide from him. But I have to warn you that you’d better avoid sneaking into the imperial palace during this period of time. I broke his arm and was immune from his Buddhist incense, so he presumably hates me to death. If I enter the imperial palace, he will definitely keep an eye on me. If he sees you, it will be terrible.”
In fact, Lin Mengya did not want to enter the imperial palace.
Although the Empress did not like her, the Emperor liked her very much and summoned her and Long Tianyu into the imperial palace to give them some instructions.
The more perverted a person was, the stronger his desire to defeat his enemy would be.
In this case, she had to be more careful.
After the carriages of the Empress and the mesdames all entered the city, Lin Mengya and Qinghu easily sneaked into the city and returned to Prince Yu’s Mansion smoothly without encountering any accidents along the way.
At this time, Baizhi and the others, who had just arrived, were getting out of the carriage in frustration.
The disappearance of both of their masters during this trip caused them to feel worried and blame themselves.
Lin Mengya could not help feeling sorry for them when she saw the gloomy and guilty look on their faces.
She was such a useless master. Otherwise, why did she always make everyone worry about her?
Just as she was about to walk over and comfort her maids, Qinghu grabbed her arm hard and pulled her back to his side.
“Stay still. Some people are coming.”
His low voice rang in her ear.
Lin Mengya immediately understood what he meant. With their backs to the street, they quickly hid in the corner and watched what was going on in front of them.
As they expected, a beautifully decorated carriage suddenly passed the place, where they were hiding, and stopped at the gate of Prince Yu’s Mansion.
Then, watched by the servants who were whispering in astonishment, a beautiful woman in a palace dress slowly got out of the carriage.
“Hey, why do you draw such a long face? Oh, are you still worried about your dead princess?”
Her arrogant voice instantly aroused the dissatisfaction of all the servants of Prince Yu’s Mansion.
All of them glared at this arrogant woman, as if they could only vent their anger by peeling off her skin and plucking out her sinews.
“How dare you! This is Princess Tiancheng, the legitimate princess of Dajin! How dare you be so rude to Her Highness! Be careful not to enrage Her Highness, or Her Highness will cut off your heads!”
