Chapter 291 Everyone speculates
He pulled her to hide at an extremely fast speed, and a sharp arrow flew past where she was standing.
The Saint was startled, and looked at Master Ning beside her with a complicated expression: "Thank you."
Xia Yining waved his fan, still looking like a playboy, and nodded with a smile, saying, "Well, it's just a small problem."
"Saint, please go and do your work. I will not disturb you if I drink some tea here, will I?"
Everyone:······
Arrows rained down on them continuously, and everyone in the room saw a group of six people sitting leisurely on chairs.
Then they saw a shocking scene: the man in red just waved his hand casually, and the rain of arrows turned around instantly.
They rushed straight towards the person who shot the arrow, and for a moment wailing sounds were heard from all over the temple.
Saint:!!!
Even she couldn't use this method.
A pair of eyes scanned the six of them, and they sat very casually, as if they were at home.
As far as I can remember, I didn't see any fear on their faces since they entered the Temple of the Holy Maiden.
He looked at them with a dark look in his eyes and asked nervously, "Who are you and why did you come to the Northern Dynasty?"
Xia Yining took a sip of tea and felt that her reaction was really slow.
"Shouldn't you thank my Chiyan for saving your life? Why are you questioning me like that?"
"Tsk tsk~ What an ungrateful woman, eh~~~"
“It’s really hard to be a good person.”
"But." As soon as she changed her tone, the gentle aura disappeared, and there was a cold emotion in her eyes.
"I am someone you can't afford to offend."
Then Xia Yining stood up and appeared on the roof of the temple in a flash.
No one else followed closely behind, even the weakest single-star flame lightness skill was top-notch.
Chi Yan raised his hand again, and the assassins around him could no longer move. They all looked at the few people with horror in their eyes.
They walked as easily as if they were in their own backyard, and soon arrived at the gate and spoke to the Saint behind them.
"Thank you for inviting me today, Saint. Since you have something going on at home, I will not bother you any more."
This attitude clearly shows that she does not want to get involved in the affairs of the Northern Dynasty. After what just happened, Xia Yining felt that the Saint was not favored in the Northern Dynasty either.
Maybe he is not that powerful, otherwise how could he assassinate her openly.
The Northern Dynasty was also very chaotic.
The shopkeeper Fat Di, who had been waiting at the door, saw that they really returned safely and ran forward excitedly.
“Ahhhhhhh~~~ Really good, really good. I didn’t expect you guys to be so capable. You actually came out of the Saint’s Temple unscathed.”
He looked them up and down again and said with a smile, "It seems that you haven't lost your virginity?"
"Okay, okay, I finally saved your innocence."
The little fat boy jumped up and down very flexibly, and the worry in his words was genuine, which brought smiles to their faces.
Thinking of the strange things in the Saint Temple, Xia Yining paused for a moment and invited with a smile: "Fatty Shopkeeper, come and have breakfast with us. There are steamed buns, fried dough sticks and soy milk, the most delicious breakfast set."
"Okay, okay, I won't take advantage of you. I'll give you a 20% discount on your accommodation after eating your meal."
The innkeeper saw his own innkeeper and followed the distinguished guest happily, with even his outstretched hand suspended in mid-air.
In the yard, a group of people sat around a table.
Xia Yining said: "I met the Saint today. She is indeed very beautiful. She is also a bright and beautiful lady."
"And she has a great figure. The customs of the Northern Dynasty are really open. She wears a thin layer of gauze at home."
"Tsk tsk~~~You men are so lucky."
She felt that the men in the temple were not necessarily forced to stay, but were willing to stay and serve.
Especially the monk who took them to the Temple of the Holy Maiden, his eyes were always moving and he was on high alert.
When the saint girl did not force them, the monk left quietly, even feeling a little happy.
Fat Di Boss: ???
He choked on the soy milk and almost killed himself.
She looked at him in confusion: "What nonsense are you talking about, Mr. Ning? How could I know such a private matter?"
"Did you see the Saint wearing it?"
"That shouldn't be the case. Ordinary people only see the Saint during the day, and they are not allowed to get close to her."
"From the emperor and officials of the Northern Dynasty to the common people, everyone kneels down to show respect when they see the Saint."
"The saint's image outside is more noble and dignified, and she won't wear very revealing clothes."
Hearing him say this, the others looked at each other.
It was completely different from what they saw in the Temple of the Holy Maiden. There was obviously something wrong with the Holy Maiden.
She thought for a moment and then asked, "Is that so? What does the Saint do every day? Do those officials respect her as well?"
Asking this made her think of an inhumane profession in India, where women were chosen to be saints at a very young age.
She can never marry or speak in her life.
When they get older, they will be reduced to playthings in the temple, and eventually they will get sick and die alone.
No one has a good ending.
She always felt that the news about the Saintess of the Northern Dynasty was a bit similar to what she had seen, except that they spoke in a more pleasant way.
It seemed like the saint was the only one causing trouble, and she was the one who took the initiative to ask the handsome man to enter the temple.
Shopkeeper Fatty didn't understand what she meant by asking this, but nodded and said, "Yes, those officials would kneel down when they saw her to show respect."
"Is something wrong?"
Seeing his eagerness for knowledge, Xia Yining did not hide anything.
"Something is very wrong. The Saint I met today was totally different from what you described her to be. Moreover, someone tried to assassinate her."
"If she is so important to the Northern Dynasty, why wouldn't your emperor send someone to protect her?"
"Let others oppress her?"
"Although she is called a saint, I feel that she lives a life worse than you ordinary people."
"However, her bedroom is indeed extremely luxurious, with gold bricks paving the way underneath."
After hearing this, Shopkeeper Fatty was shocked and stood up and said, "You said someone assassinated the Saint? Impossible, impossible."
"Wherever there is a Saint, there will be many people protecting her. Even the most powerful guards around the Emperor will be there."
"How could such a highly respected saint be assassinated? I believe the emperor will not turn a blind eye to it."
"It won't be long before the news gets out, and by then many bad guys will have been caught."
"There have been many such incidents before. I heard that the Saint was injured several times."
"The emperor was furious when he heard this, and immediately sent people to investigate. He traced the case back to the noble family, and then imprisoned and beheaded them."
As he spoke, he began to feel something was wrong and gradually stopped talking.
Naturally, the others also understood what he could think of. For a moment, the yard was quiet and the answer was about to come out.
