”Yes, about a year ago, my foster father took me wandering around and came here.” At the mention of his foster father, the expression in Poria Cocos' eyes dimmed.
These words aroused Luo Lingwei's curiosity. She couldn't help but ask: ”Poria Cocos, what did your foster father do? How could he be chased all the way? ”
”I don't know. I told esteemed wangfei the other day that my foster father treated General Zhenyuan's illness, but somehow he was killed, so he escaped overnight.”
Hearing this, Luo Lingwei could only remain silent. Although all these signs indicated that Luo Tianhe's death was related to Ye Feian, there was still very little evidence to prove that he was the one who killed Luo Tianhe.
Along the way, this group of people had already walked for an entire day, and now they were all tired out. However, there was no one here.
”It seems like we'll have to spend the night in the mountain.” Seeing that the sky was about to turn dark, Luo Lingwei said to a few people beside her.
When Zhang Long and Zhao Hu heard this, they looked at each other. Zhao Hu then rode his horse to scout the road. Not long after, he came back to report the situation to Luo Lingwei.
”Reporting to the Empress, there is a dilapidated temple up ahead. It can be tidied up a little, but it can still be used as a body.”
After Luo Lingwei heard what Zhao Hu had to say, she instructed her men to hurry up. Before long, everyone had arrived at this dilapidated temple and went in to rest.
However, in the middle of the night, he heard footsteps. Zhao Hu turned around, held the steel saber in his hand and looked around.
He saw a man standing at the door of the temple. He didn't know what to do. He immediately unsheathed his long blade, jumped in front of the man and shouted, ”Sneaking around! ”What are your intentions?”
This time, Luo Lingwei and the others were awakened. They stood up one by one to hold the fire. After the lights were lit, they saw a thin man in ragged clothes standing there.
”Old masters, please don't kill me! I only wanted to stay in this crappy temple for the night, but I didn't expect that the old masters would already be inside. The man's face was full of fear as he begged for mercy.
Luo Lingwei knew that they had caused a ruckus, so she instructed Zhao Hu to put away his blade and let that person enter the temple.
”I scared you just now, so I'll apologize to you.” As Zhao Hu spoke, he cupped his hands in a salute towards the beggar-like figure.
If it was in the past, Zhao Hu would definitely not be so modest. Not to mention scaring this beggar, even if he were to kill him, he would not hesitate at all.
