Chapter 1270: Chapter 1270: Monastics Do Not Lie

Shu Yu’s words left Daoist Nun Qiu speechless, but after a moment of hesitation, she said, “A monastic does not speak falsely.”

Shu Yu understood, she was a disciple of the Dongqing Temple master, this was the truth. As long as Old Master Miao was brought to ask her, Daoist Nun Qiu would not lie.

“Thank you, Senior Sister Qiu. You go ahead with your tasks, I’ll take my leave first.”

She was in a hurry, so she didn’t linger, quickly running out of the temple and heading down the mountain.

She wondered how things were going on Meng Yunzheng’s end.

Meanwhile, Meng Yunzheng was drinking tea in a teahouse, and sitting opposite him was Old Master Miao.

After parting ways with Shu Yu, he followed that intermediary from the black market.

This person, as he was to visit the residence, made a detour to buy some things after leaving the inn.

Meng Yunzheng wanted to delay time, and there were only two ways; one was to cause trouble for this person, the other was to make Old Master Miao have something to do, so it would be best if the two of them couldn’t meet.

However, if this person from the black market was obstructed halfway, he might grow suspicious and associate it with them, inevitably causing more trouble at that time.

It seemed he would have to start with Old Master Miao.

While that person went to buy things, Meng Yunzheng bypassed him and headed straight to the Miao Residence.

He stopped at the entrance of the Miao Residence; there were people guarding the entrance, and with Meng Yunzheng’s skills, entering the Miao Family was not a problem.

But for someone like Old Master Miao, there would definitely be a lot of guards and servants inside the residence. Meng Yunzheng was unfamiliar with the internal layout of the Miao Residence, and entering recklessly not only risked exposing himself but also wasted time finding Old Master Miao within such a large residence, he might not even find him before the person from the black market arrived.

He couldn’t enter the Miao Residence, so he could only lure Old Master Miao out.

But how to lure him? Meng Yunzheng wasn’t very familiar with Old Master Miao, what kind of situation would make him come out immediately? According to the information he currently had, aside from the Piaoxiang Courtyard… it was the Dongqing Temple.

Piaoxiang Courtyard was too far, and any incident there would take too long to be reported back here.

So, it was only the Dongqing Temple.

Meng Yunzheng went to a nearby bookstore and bought an invitation card, wrote a line on it, and then handed the card to a relatively cleanly dressed beggar nearby, instructing him to give it to the gatekeeper.

The beggar received a few copper coins and happily went to the entrance of the Miao Residence, saying to the frowning gatekeeper, “Sir, a gentleman asked me to deliver this invitation card to Old Master Miao, saying it concerns the Dongqing Temple.”

The gatekeeper, initially impatient and wanting to shoo the person away, hesitated when he heard about the Dongqing Temple.

As the gatekeeper, he naturally knew about Old Master Miao’s monthly visits to the Dongqing Temple.

So he took the invitation card, seeing its cover was quite exquisite and not some cheap item.

The gatekeeper glanced at the beggar, just about to ask what the gentleman looked like, but the beggar had already scampered off.

Left with no choice, the gatekeeper hurriedly returned to the residence.

Meng Yunzheng stood not far away, watching both the Miao Residence and another street.

He wasn’t sure if such bait would be enough to lure Old Master Miao out; if the person from the black market came and Old Master Miao hadn’t left, he would have to implement another plan.

Fortunately, it wasn’t long before Old Master Miao came out with a hurried expression.

He looked around, his brows furrowed tightly, still holding that invitation card in his hand.

It seemed the Dongqing Temple was indeed quite important to Old Master Miao. This move was the right one.

After standing at the entrance for a moment, Old Master Miao cursed under his breath and quickly left the Miao Residence gate.
