Ye Xiaochuan looked at Zhao Shiyu's eyes. He only saw sadness and sincerity, and did not see anything more from Zhao Shiyu's eyes.
Ye Xiaochuan said nothing more, picked up the clothes handed over by Shangguan Yu, and slowly put them on.
At this time, Yu Haisang and Shi Jingtian also walked out of the cave, going in and out several times.
The two of them did not crown the two saints, nor did they move the bodies of the two saints.
They just took out many sacrificial items from the cave and placed them in front of the remains of the Second Saint.
The two incense burners, one large and one small, are both made of bronze.
A handful of Zen incense, including slender Zen incense and thick faucet incense.
Two candle holders and a bundle of white candles.
A rather large gray-brown porcelain basin.
Several bundles of yellow paper.
Five bowls of grain seeds.
The two of them arranged these ingots, candles and incense in a certain order in front of the two saints' bodies.
First, arrange the grain bowls, then light the candle, use the flame of the candle to light the faucet incense, and insert it into the larger bronze incense burner.
Light the fine Zen incense and put it in a small incense burner.
The last step is to burn paper money for the Second Saint.
The paper money was placed in the porcelain basin, and a faint green smoke emitted.
After finishing all this, the two elders took out several pieces of white linen from the cave, cut them with scissors, and tore them apart.
Zhao Shiyu stepped forward, picked up a white linen strip, and tied it around his head. The golden python belt on his body was also replaced by a white belt.
Not long after, the five living people on Xuehai Cliff were all wearing mourning clothes.
Ye Xiaochuan knelt down in front of the porcelain basin, offered incense to the two saints, kowtowed, and burned paper money, almost without saying a word.
During this period, several groups of cultivators appeared in the sky.
There were monks who came from the capital, and there were also disciples sent by some nearby righteous sects.
Following ancient traditions and respect for the Two Saints, these cultivators did not land directly on Xuehai Cliff, but landed in the valley to the south and were blocked by the monks of the Royal Cultivation Academy guarding the mountain road.
There were a lot of these cultivators, hundreds of them. At the beginning, they were told to wait at the foot of the mountain, and they just waited.
After all, the Second Saint is a noble person, and it is very troublesome to deal with the affairs after his death.
But after waiting and waiting, many cultivators began to lose their temper.
Especially the elders of some sects, regardless of their knowledge or age, they are all hundreds of years old, much older than the two saints.
He is also a highly respected elder in the world of human cultivation. If he keeps waiting, isn't he neglecting himself?
Guo Yulin, deputy head of the Taishan Sword Sect, also came. He had no favorable impressions of Confucianism and felt that Confucianism occupied the best position in Mount Tai. If the Taishan Sword Sect had mastered the main peak of Mount Tai, it would have already become a world-famous sect.
It’s not like it’s still a second-rate sect now.
Among this group of people, it was Guo Yulin who had the most violent quarrel with the disciples of the Taishan Sword Sect.
To say that Confucianism is disrespectful to people, we have been waiting for a long time, why can't we go up to pay homage to the two ancestors of the world?
The royal monk said earnestly that a very powerful person from above had said that no one could go up the cliff at will within three days, otherwise they would be killed without mercy.
Before His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the two pavilion elders went up the cliff, they also gave numerous instructions not to allow anyone to go up the cliff without being summoned.
As soon as this explanation came out, those righteous disciples were even more dissatisfied.
If it were just an order from His Highness the Crown Prince, they would still be able to endure it.
However, a powerful person from above said that no one can climb the cliff within three days, and anyone who violates it will be killed without mercy... This is unbearable.
You are great, how can I not be great?
The arguments at the foot of Xuehai Cliff became louder and louder. Only the Buddhist disciples did not make a fuss. The monks and nuns were all sitting cross-legged in the valley, meditating and chanting sutras to save the two saints.
The monks from the Royal Cultivation Academy who were guarding the road below were not many in number and their cultivation was not very good. They were a little overwhelmed by the troubles made by those cultivators.
Seeing that it was getting dark, Guo Yulin held back his anger, and regardless of the prince's orders, he insisted on going to Haiya to offer three sticks of incense to the two saints.
At his greeting, hundreds of righteous cultivators flew up and flew over the heads of the group of royal monks guarding the road.
Although the royal monks blocked some, more than twenty cultivators still flew up.
Guo Yulin said loudly: "Guo Yulin, Taishan Sword Sect, has come to kowtow to the Two Saints! I want to see who dares to show off his power in front of the Two Saints and stop us from coming to worship!"
Ye Xiaochuan, who was kneeling in front of the Second Saint's body, stared intently.
With a staggering sound, the sword was unsheathed.
He didn't look back, he just waved back slightly.
Hundreds of sword energy roared out and shot towards the more than twenty cultivators who flew up.
Guo Yulin was furious. He didn't expect that the other party would dare to do something in front of the Second Saint's body.
He raised the fairy sword magic weapon in an attempt to neutralize the incoming sword energy.
Other cultivators also acted in the same way.
However, the power of these sword energies was tens or hundreds of times greater than they imagined.
Originally, they thought that these small sword energy would have little lethality and they should be able to resolve it easily.
It's unimaginable, every seemingly inconspicuous sword energy seems to contain the power to destroy the world.
Ah! Ah! The screams are endless.
The more than twenty cultivators who flew onto the platform all flew out again before their feet even touched the ground.
Then, the remaining limbs were broken, and the head rolled down.
Including Guo Yulin, no one knew why they died.
Almost none of the corpses that fell from the mountain were complete.
And no one is alive.
The more than 20 people who rushed forward with great force just a moment ago were only a dozen breaths old. When they reappeared, they had all turned into corpses.
There was deathly silence at the foot of the mountain.
Then there was a roar and shouting.
Many of those monks who were blocked by the royal monks just now were secretly glad that they were caught.
Otherwise, if he had rushed up just now, he would have ended up in the same way.
But there were still some people who were disciples of the Taishan Sword Sect. When they saw their friends being killed, they immediately became furious and flew towards Xuehai Cliff with their magic weapons held high.
The people at the foot of the mountain only saw those people just leaping over Xuehai Cliff, and then another wave of sword energy swept out.
The dozen or so people who flew up let out more than a dozen screams and turned into corpses, falling into the valley.
The mysterious man on the cliff didn't even show his face. He killed more than forty people with just two waves of sword energy.
His words came true.
Anyone who breaks into Xuehai Cliff without being summoned will be killed without mercy.
All the people who went up there were all dead in an instant, and no one survived.
Now the cultivators making trouble at the foot of the mountain were all as honest as human-shaped quails. They all backed away in fear, not daring to get close to Xuehai Cliff.
But at this moment, the Buddhist disciples who had been quiet before all stood up.
An old monk with a gray beard slowly rose into the sky.
He clasped his hands together and said slowly: "Amitabha, God is good at saving lives. Why did the donor act so cruelly and ruthlessly, without sparing anyone's life?"
Ye Xiaochuan's hoarse voice echoed in Taishan again: "I said that within three days, anyone who trespasses on Xuehai Cliff will die. I just want to quietly keep vigil for the two seniors for three days. I don't want to kill anyone again. Why do you want to
