The moment the door was opened, a strong Zen fragrance came out from inside. Xiaoyu, a nine-tailed fox demon wearing shabby linen clothes, was sitting on the futon, with his back to the jade machine. This old fox seemed to do more than just cleaning every day.
Outside the ancestor's ancestral hall, the biggest remaining task is to carve spiritual tablets. The old fingers hold the pitch-black sharp knife, seeming to turn a blind eye to the jade machine, gently and slowly scratching on a large piece of wood.
Move, under her clothes
There were a lot of sawdust accumulated on the table, and it was obvious that she had been carving for a long time.
The door opened, the night wind blew in, and countless candlelights inside began to sway, so Yao Xiaoyu gently waved his sleeves, and the door closed again with a snap.
Yu Jizi was not surprised at all by the old man's Taoism. He walked to the sacred case and picked up three fine Zen incense sticks, bowed respectfully three times to the spiritual tablets of the ancestors of the past generations, and then inserted the Zen incense into the bronze incense burner.
The curls of green smoke swirled upwards, and then gradually disappeared into a layer of faint blue mist on the beams.
Yu Jizi looked at the green mist gathering on the beams, and seemed to be in a trance. After a while, he said: "Senior, you have been guarding the ancestral hall for many years. Is the layer of green smoke covering the beams the smell of incense?
"
Yao Xiaoyu said hoarsely: "Maybe so. You don't have to be envious. Sooner or later, you will be placed here and enjoy the incense offered by future generations of disciples day and night."
This sentence is a bit heartbreaking. There are probably only a few people in the world who dare to say this in front of the world's righteous leader.
Yu Jizi was not angry. As the leader of Cangyun, he naturally knew the origin of the old man in front of him.
There are two most important positions in Cangyun Sect. One is the Reincarnation Hall, which symbolizes the status of the ancient sect of Cangyun Sect, and the other is the Ancestral Hall, which enshrines the spiritual tablets of the ancestors of past dynasties.
Ordinary disciples are not allowed to approach such an important place at will. If they did not know this old man very well, the Cangyun heads of the past generations would not be able to hand over the ancestral hall to her with confidence.
Yu Jizi smiled bitterly and said: "I also want to have such a day. I hope that I will meet the ancestors of the past generations and not be scolded by them." Yao Xiaoyu chuckled and said: "You have taken care of Cangyun Sect over the years.
With such prosperity, how could your ancestors scold you? I have been here for more than three thousand years and have met dozens of Cangyun sect leaders. To tell you what you want to hear, there are not many sect leaders who can compare with you.
Those of you from Cangyun Sect back then
The founder, Cangyunzi, actually just founded the Cangyun Sect. When he died, there were less than 800 people inside and outside the Cangyun Sect. As for Cangyunzi's Taoism, he was not that high.
He's only in middle age, far inferior to you."
Yao Xiaoyu could comment or even curse Cang Yunzi at will, but Yu Jizi could not, so Yu Jizi did not answer the question.
He said: "My lifelong wish is to recover Cangyun and welcome back the Black Iron Order. I have worked hard for hundreds of years and my wish has been achieved more than half. If I can see the Black Iron Order being placed on this sacred case again in my lifetime, it will accept the acceptance of all generations.
The Patriarch has reviewed it, and I will die without regrets."
Yao Xiaoyu said softly: "Is the Xuantian Order really so important? Many people have died for a broken iron sign." Yu Jizi suddenly said with some excitement: "More than three hundred years ago, the Xuantian Sect
Relying on their strong momentum, they convened a righteous alliance and forced our Cangyun Sect to hand over the Black Iron Order passed down by our ancestor. However, our Cangyun Sect could only say to the outside world that the Black Iron Order was lost and was accidentally picked up by Xuantian Sect disciples.
In fact, I am the fourth member of the Cangyun Sect.
After thousands of years of shame and humiliation, if I don’t welcome back Xuan Tie Order, how can I face my ancestors? Senior, when Senior Brother Yuan and I knelt here and made great wishes to our ancestors, do you still remember?
"Yao Xiaoyu sighed and said: "How could you not remember? It's a pity that only three hundred years have passed, but the bones of Yuan and Qin have long since disappeared. You were so good friends back then, just like brothers. Hey, I can't figure it out.
If he and Banzhu Shui die, they will die. It is their own fault, but you clearly know that he
Ban Zhushui's son was wrongly accused by the Xuantian Sect back then, why couldn't you leave him a bloodline?"
Over the years, no one has dared to mention Yuan Qin, Ban Zhushui, or Yuan Shaoqin in front of Yu Jizi. This is a taboo in Yu Jizi's heart. But Yao Xiaoyu doesn't care. She knows Yuan Qin, Yun Yazi's disciple, and his qualifications.
No one in Taoism is inferior to Yu Jizi. Not to mention Banzhu Shui, the owner of the previous generation's Chenchen Divine Sword was actually a peerless woman. Yuan Shaoqin inherited the excellent blood of the two of them, and he was very competitive when he was young.
Eyes, among his peers, even Gu Jianchi cannot compare with him. Unfortunately, after Guo Hui Yi Yao, these three people did not end well. As for the death of Yuan Qin and Ban Zhushui, it was entirely their own fault, Yao Xiaoyu
There was no sense of regret, what she regretted was Yuan Shaoqin. This young man was supposed to be a crazy person in the three realms, but ended up with a ruined ending. It was wonderful.
Life has not yet begun, like a meteor, and it falls here before the age of forty. Yu Jizi sat on a yellow futon next to him. He looked at Yao Xiaoyu and said: "Senior, sometimes you can't help yourself.
, I can’t help myself to death. Over the years, no one has dared to mention this matter in front of me. You are alone. Senior Brother Yuan and I are brothers. Before their death, they entrusted the young Shaoqin to me. I didn’t
I failed them, even now, I can still say this. When Shaoqin was eighteen years old, I passed on the Heavenly Sword to him, intending to cultivate him as my successor to Cangyun a hundred years later, even if Xuan Qin was
Tianzong and other sects forced me together, and I was able to resist the pressure and save Shaoqin's life. However, on the night before the public trial, someone secretly revealed to Shaoqin the reason for the death of his parents.
He is an aloof and arrogant man. Faced with such truth, he has no face to live in this world and only seeks death. Shaoqin is the son of Senior Brother Yuan.
Not much is known about the matter in Cangyun Sect. Over the years, I have also secretly traced who revealed the matter of his parents to him the night before the public trial. Unfortunately, no matter how I traced it, I couldn't find anything.
"
Yao Xiaoyu frowned and said, "Is there anything else?"
Yu Jizi said: "I don't need to lie to you. I, Yu Jizi, want to kill someone. If I kill someone, I will kill him. If he kills me wrongly, I will kill him wrongly. I won't make any excuses."
Yao Xiaoyu suddenly nodded. He has known Yu Jizi for hundreds of years. It can be said that Yao Xiaoyu has watched Yu Jizi grow up step by step and has some understanding of Yu Jizi's temperament.
Suddenly, she thought of something and murmured: "Could it be him?"
Yu Jizi was startled and said: "What, senior, do you know something?" Yao Xiaoyu shook his head and said: "What can I, an old woman, know? These are your Cangyun Sect's family affairs and have nothing to do with me."
