The Charismatic Charlie Wade
Chapter 5738
Charlie smiled lightly and said with relief:
âItâs okay. Since everyone has left, letâs go up and take a look.â
âMaybe they have left some clues.â
Maria asked quickly: âDo you want me to ask Ethan to help us check?â
âThese people might leave surveillance information in nearby towns.â
Charlie shrugged: âYou can try it, but I feel like there wonât be much gain.â
âThese people are different from Victoria, who is suspicious by nature.â
âThis time she came to Shiwan and acted alone. In this case, it is difficult to cover everything. But
they are different at first glance. Not only are they acting as a team, but they have also been
prepared in advance. In this case, it should not be possible. Leave us some clues.â
âThatâs trueâ¦â Maria sighed and said: âIt seems that they guessed that we were coming here in
advance, so they prepared in advance in Qingzhao Nunnery.â After saying that,
Maria thought of something and said: âWe can Find out about the situation of
Qingzhao Nunnery from the local area, maybe you can find some clues.â
âOkay.â Charlie nodded and said, âLetâs go up and take a look first.â
â¦
The two of them arrived at the main entrance of Qingzhao Nunnery.
By that time, the door was closed.
However, Charlie stepped forward and pushed gently, And the door opened with a creaking sound.
He stepped in, looked at the thick wooden door bolt behind the door, and frowned:
âIt seems they knew we were coming, and specially left the door open for us.â Maria looked a little
horrified and murmured:
âEvery step we take is countedâ¦â
âYeah.â Charlie laughed at himself and said,
âI thought it was hidden very deep, but it turns out that everyone knows everything.â
âThe key is that everything can be calculated by them. I really canât understand
it.â
Maria also said with some dejection: âI have never had any cultivation in more than three hundred
years.â
âWhat I have always been more conceited about is my brain.â
âNow it seems that I canât compare it with them.â
Charlie smiled and said: âThis is normal.â
âTwo fists are still hard to beat with four hands,â
âNot to mention that there may be a huge organization behind them.â
âWith so many people working together, how can they not understand the two of us?â
Maria sighed softly and said:
âVictoria has been after me for the three hundred years.â
âShe has never found me, so these people may not be able to match Warriors
Den in terms of hard power,â
âBut the people behind them must be smarter than Victoria and me.â
Charlie comforted: âFortunately, it is unlikely that they are enemies.â
âIf we can become friends in the future, it should be of great help to us.â
Maria nodded slightly, but it could be seen that she was still somewhat shocked.
Charlie changed the subject and said to her,
âLetâs go in and take a look.â
âOkay,â Maria responded and followed Charlie as she walked in.
Qingzhaoâan is not big at all.
There are two courtyards in total, one in front and one in the back.
On both sides of the front yard are side halls,
And in the middle is the main hall.
There is also a small courtyard behind the main hall with three tile-roofed houses.
Charlie and Maria first looked at the side halls on both sides.
Apart from a few Buddha statues enshrined in the side halls, there was nothing special.
In the main hall, the evergreen lamp was still burning,
And in the incense burner, three sticks of sandalwood had almost burned to the roots.
Charlie looked at the incense burner, then guessed the length of the incense ash, and said,
âThese three sandalwood sticks seem to be very long.â
âThey must have been burning for more than an hour.â
Maria calculated the time and said,
âComing down the mountain it has indeed been an hour since I met you and explained everything to
you,â
âPlus the young master and I went up the mountain and then turned back.â
Charlie nodded and said: âThen these three sticks of incense are from when you left the house.â
âIt was ignited at that moment.â
As he spoke, Charlie closed his eyes, smelled the sandalwood scent carefully, and sighed:
âThis sandalwood scent is so good, better than any other sandalwood scent I have ever smelled!â
Maria said in agreement: âI was just going to say⦠this sandalwood is indeed very good.â
âI am also a lover of tea and fragrance, but the best old sandalwood I have ever come into contact
with does not have this kind of sandalwood smell.â
âThe aroma is rich, deep, and slightly sweet.â
Charlie couldnât help but sigh: âIt seems that every step we take is indeed in their calculations.â
âThey must have calculated that you will notice the abnormality and that we will turn back.â
âThese three sticks of incense should have been lit for us.â
