Chapter 612   On the Way Down, Something’s Happened

The puja was scheduled and ran quite long, except that none of the people from the Qu Mansion came back again.

Hilarious a large group over, and now only left himself, Qu Mo Ying heart only sank to ridicule, really is just a play …

Luo’s this situation, of course, it is impossible to come back, big brother Qu Minghui to take care of Luo, Qu Mo Ying also did not expect to come back, out of this kind of thing, the whole East House can not be stable, this time also do not have the heart to care about themselves.

On the contrary, their own this cheap father, actually also shadow disappeared, and so after the afternoon, the mountain sent some people to send some of the things to be arranged for the ceremony.

The boy sent by Qu Zhizhen said that he had important official business to do, Qu Mingcheng side can not go for a while, and will let Qu Minghui come up to the mountain to help Qu Mo Ying clean up, and then accompanied her down the mountain.

Qu Mingcheng did not come back, Qu Mo Ying was able to guess, and at that moment did not mean it, just answered and continued to guard.

It was good that no one else from the Qu Mansion was there, so he or she could do a good job of performing the rituals for his or her mother.

Qu Mo Ying in accordance with the rules of the practice, every now and then will give his mother three columns of incense, kneeling worship, and at the side of the quiet listening to the nuns singing knocking the magic weapon, and from time to time to burn some of the talismanic paper.

The main Qu Mansion ceremony is a middle-aged Taoist nun, coincidentally, this Taoist nun is actually the previous Luo repeatedly did not invite the Qinghe real.

Before Luo left, she hadn’t come over yet, and only sent two disciples with a couple of young Taoist nuns to come over first.

By the time she came over, the great halls of the puja had all been changed, and Luo had long since descended the mountain, not running into each other twice.

Seeing that the Qu Mansion did not have an adult who could take charge of the matter, this Qing He Zhen Zhen did not treat Qu Mo Ying slowly, and his words and actions made people feel good, so it is no wonder that there are so many families in the capital who want to invite this Qing He Zhen Zhen Zhen.

It’s just that she doesn’t do it for very long, she only comes over once in the afternoon, and after that it’s one of her disciples who is helping to look after the place.

The winter sun, originally fell fast, Yu Dong has already looked at the door several times, but did not see anyone come over, anxious in place stomped his feet, this time, the grand duke has not come over, really anxious.

And do not die in place to wait, and after that deliberately ran outside to look for, or no Qu Mansion people, look at this day, Yu Dong has already waited no longer.

Turning back around and entering the large hall, he came to Qu Mo Ying’s face, “Miss, the Grand Duke hasn’t come yet.”

“It’s getting late?” Qu Mo Ying was inside the great hall and didn’t notice the color of the sky outside.

“By the looks of it, it’s going to be dark soon, Miss, what should we do?” Yu Dong asked.

Qu Mo Ying was silent for a moment, and said unhurriedly, “Pack up, let’s go down the mountain ourselves!”

“Not waiting for the Grand Duke?” Yu Chun put down the teacup she had only just replaced in her hand, a little anxious.

“Pack up first, if you come over, go back together, if you don … t come over, go back by yourself.” Qu Mo Ying said quietly.

Since said to let Qu Minghui to pick up their own, it seems to be another change, good in her here is also prepared, between the color of the face do not see a trace of panic.

“Good, the slave girl will immediately have someone pack up.” Yu Dong nodded her head and first went to speak to the Taoist nun from Qing Yun Guan, then went to have the few maids and grannies left behind in the Qu Mansion pack up their things.

Seeing that it was already late in the day, the subordinates packed up very quickly, Qing He Zhenren’s disciple came over to Qu Mo Ying and bowed his hand, Qu Mo Ying sidestepped and returned the salute.

“Is Fourth Miss Qu going down the mountain now?”

“It’s getting late, indeed we have to go down the mountain, please trouble a few real people.” Qu Mo Ying contained a smile and asked Yu Chun to fetch the payment for the puja over and hand it to this Daoist nun.

“Fourth Miss Qu, you are welcome, the reward has already been taken, there is no need to give it again.” The Daoist nun shook her hand.

“This is a token of my appreciation, no honor.” Qu Mo Ying insisted, if she could, she would have preferred to have everything paid for by herself instead of Qu Zhi Zhen paying for it first.

Seeing that she was so insistent, the Taoist nun had the little Taoist nun behind her put it away, and then said with concern, “It’s already late, and there doesn’t seem to be anyone else from the mansion coming to pick it up, would Fourth Miss Qu like to spend the night here, and then go back down the mountain when it’s sunrise tomorrow, to make it a bit safer.”

“Many thanks to the real person, big brother will be arriving soon, I’m bound to run into him on my way down the mountain.” Qu Mo Ying smiled and excused himself.

Hearing that the Qu Mansion’s eldest son would be coming, the Daoist nun nodded and said, “It was the poor Taoist who was overly concerned.”

“The real person is polite.” Qu Mo Ying softly smiled.

It was pretty much cleaned up over there, and the Daoist nun took a few of her own little nuns to retire.

Qu Mo Ying sent the person to the entrance of the main hall with a smile on her face and watched this Daoist nun leave with the people from the view.

Yu Dong has been urging, we all look at this day know that it is not early, hands and feet are very numb, scheduled today is to go down the mountain, it is impossible to stay on the mountain.

By the time the packing was done, the sun was still hanging in the sky, though it was well to the west.

Yu Dong breathed a sigh of relief and led the people to follow Qu Mo Ying’s lead, heading for the parking place.

At the parking lot, the Quartermaster left two carriages in.

The master and servant few got into the carriage, Qu Mo Ying remained in the front of the carriage and brought two maids, Yu Dong and Yu Chun.

The other maids and grannies went up to the carriage behind them with a load of wares.

“Where is everyone?” When he was seated, Qu Mo Ying asked in a low voice.

Raindon also lowered his voice and returned, “Follow us.”

Qu Mo Ying’s heart settled a little, and his heart slowly fell.

All the way down the mountain, without a man traveling with him, and at this time of the year, how to see how unsafe, Qu Mo Ying should have been prepared early.

Qingyunguan down the mountain road is very long and curved around, look at the sky, to halfway to the sun will be gone, this next day will be dark very quickly.

It was already impossible for Qu Minghui to come and pick himself up.

Today’s things, all the Qu Xuexin things, Qu Mingcheng actually did not do anything, of course, not that Qu Xuexin things he did not stir in it, but that this situation, in order to Qu Mingcheng’s nature of mind how can no longer be prepared for what to prepare for the backhand.

Qu Minghui is very well read and counts as a young talent, so it is evident that he has good intelligence.

Qu Mo Ying here was naturally on guard.

The coachman raised his whip, and the carriage slowly started, and after moving just a little, it suddenly stopped again.

Yu Dong lifted the curtain and peeked out, “What is it?”

“Fourth Miss wait a moment, there is a stone caught in the wheel, the slave will remove the stone and leave.” The coachman echoed from underneath the carriage, and should have jumped off the carriage to deal with it.

After waiting for another while, the carriage still couldn’t move, Qu Mo Ying glanced at Yu Dong, who understood and jumped down from the carriage.

The coachman squatted down in front of the wheel and made a great effort, rising up, and managed to take out from underneath the wheel a stone that was not very large, but actually had some points on its head.

“Luckily it was taken out, if it had been pressed in, it could have also jammed the wheels, and when the carriage malfunctioned, it would have been even more difficult.” The carriage driver smiled and handed the stone in his hand to Yu Dong to see.

After reading it, Yu Dong nodded noncommittally and said, “Can we go now?”

“It’s okay, it’s okay!” The coachman said cheerfully.

Yu Dong turned around and got into the carriage, his face grimacing.

The coachman also followed and jumped onto the carriage, rushing the carriage to start slowly, while saying to Qu Mo Ying in the carriage, “When the fourth young lady’s carriage is going downhill, there are some places that are quite steep, so it is important to hold on to them steadily.”

“Our lady knows.” Yu Chun voiced externally.

The coachman ceased speaking and struck off for the outside, the other coach following.

“Miss, that stone is not too big and not too small, but if the party is really pressed, when it is taken down directly, the carriage will vibrate a little, or it may also be pulled forward a little, if the stone is behind the carriage, the slave girl that will have to get off the carriage, and will also feel the vibration, when the slave girl got off the carriage, the carriage did not have any vibration, but only was pushed a little. ”

Raindon analyzed in a low voice.

He was not a maid of the inner courtyard who knew nothing of such details with greater attention to detail, and it was only between glances that he saw much of what he was meant to see.

“There’s something wrong with this carriage driver, it seems like he’s deliberately dragging out the delay.” Yu Dong came to a conclusion.

It was already late, at this time everyone was in a hurry to go down the mountain, and it was full of women’s families, the only two carriage drivers were men, so it was easy for something to happen.

“Be careful.” Qu Mo Ying was already prepared in her heart, and she wasn’t very flustered, her cherry lips pursed slightly, and she commanded in a low voice.

“Slave servant knows.” Yu Dong’s face was heavy as she said, with the carriage’s current traveling speed, I’m afraid that the sky would be dark by the time they reached the halfway point of the mountain.

And can not rush, this is the road down the mountain, the day late down, more careful, said the coachman also said, this road is not good, in order to be safe and sound will be important.

Sure enough, all the way down, the going was extremely slow, and even though the people in the carriage were all anxious, no one dared to rush.

The sun went down, the road down the mountain, and darkened a few points, this will come across the people, away from some, even the five features can not be seen clearly.

Suddenly, the carriage “thumped”, slipped heavily, Yu Chun unconsciously shrieked, Yu Dong backhandedly pulled Qu Mo Ying’s sleeve, and looked nervously out of the car.

Fortunately, the carriage stopped after a violent jolt.

The coachman’s anxious voice came from above the carriage, “Fourth Miss, the lackey didn’t see a pit here and accidentally sunk into it, can you come down first and let the lackey push the wheel out of the pit.”

“Go, go down and take a look.” Qu Mo Ying calmed down a little and whispered, the wheels were sunk in, the people in the car would inevitably have to come down, otherwise it would be even harder to push out.

Yudong let go and was the first to jump off the wagon, followed by Yuchun, who was the last to come down.

When the carriage in front stopped, the one behind of course followed and stopped together, several maids and grannies all got off the carriage and went to this carriage in front.

It’s going to be a dark day, so if you look close, you can still see people clearly.

“What’s going on?” The coachman in the back squeezed over and asked the front.

“The wheels have sunk in.” The wagon driver in front of him pointed to a not-so-small pit under the wheel and said with a sad face.

This pit is right on the side of the lean-to, and in the old days when going up and down, no one should be traveling by so far out, and it’s not usually possible to trap someone.

Beyond the mountain pass, there are cliffs further out.

“It was dark, couldn’t see clearly, accidentally drove in.” The carriage driver in front said helplessly.

“Then what are we waiting for, let’s help get the carriage out together first.” The carriage driver in the back looked up at the sky and said decisively, he couldn’t wait any longer, in a moment when it was all dark, the road down the mountain would be even more dangerous.
