"This is what happened..." Jin Liquan knelt on the ground, not even daring to raise his head to look at the young priest.
Gu Fenglin never scolded him or uttered a threatening word. He was calm from beginning to end, just like chatting at home.
The priest, who had just been seriously injured, was tired and thin, and did not look threatening.
But Jin Liquan couldn't help but be afraid of him and admire him.
"The general didn't mean to put you in danger. It was too late. Later, something happened to you. Although the general meant to explain, he didn't dare to come over."
Old Man Gu couldn't help but feel weird: "I won't let anyone catch you, are you going to run away?"
Jin Liquan lowered his head and remained silent. He was from the Lin family. He came to see Gu Fenglin on his own initiative. If the Lin family found out, he would be dead. What's more, Gu Fenglin's life and death were unknown. Didn't he just come here to seek death?
"That's all." Gu Fenglin stopped Old Man Gu and whispered: "She promised you, and I will fulfill it for her. You go back. What should you say and what shouldn't be said? Do you understand?"
"Understood." Jin Liquan lowered his head and was about to leave, then heard Gu Fenglin say: "Do you know who the enemy army was last night?"
Jin Liquan hesitated for a moment and then said: "It's very strange. He has been silent all this time, as if he is mute. He is extremely ferocious, and his fighting style is different from all the armies known to the general."
"That's a Qi person, a Qi person let in by the Lin family for their own selfish interests."
Gu Fenglin looked at him quietly: "This time it's over. Next time you and I meet, I hope we can be friends, not enemies."
Jin Liquan immediately understood that this meant that he should abandon the darkness and turn to the light.
He knelt down and said: "I am willing to follow you, sir, and bring death to Zhao Guo!"
After Jin Liquan left, Gu Fenglin told Old Man Gu: "Let's go to the temple."
Mr. Gu and others came in from outside, looking ashamed: "Alin, we..."
Gu Fenglin said: "I don't blame you, I know you have done your best."
Mr. Gu said: "Just rest, don't worry about it, leave it to us to find Han Yatou."
Gu Fenglin didn't answer, just closed his eyes and patted his shoulder lightly.
Old Man Gu knew that he could not be persuaded, so he sighed secretly and ordered someone to carry the carriage and go out.
It was already dawn, and the Priest's Palace was in a mess, with people cleaning up the scene everywhere.
Mu Yunhan evacuated properly, and there were not many casualties. However, most of the houses were burned, and the property losses were even more severe.
There are still many houses where the fire has not been extinguished, thick smoke is still rising, and many servants, women and maids are crying.
Everyone walked along with heavy hearts.
Gu Fenglin kept his eyes closed from beginning to end, not taking a second look at these houses or other things.
Seeing that his face was pale and transparent, Mr. Gu said worriedly: "Alin, are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Gu Fenglin rolled his eyes silently.
Mr. Gu knew that he didn't have the energy to answer him, but he couldn't understand what it meant, so he could only look at Mr. Gu awkwardly.
Old Man Gu lowered his eyes and said, "My lord said you can't die."
Mr. Gu was frustrated and felt aggrieved, but when he thought that he had lost his daughter-in-law at home, he did not dare to speak out.
Most of the temple collapsed, and the statue of Gu's ancestor was pushed to the ground by someone unknown, and broke into two pieces. There were several marks of slashing and gouging on it, and it was damaged beyond recognition. I don't know if it was due to hatred or delusion.
What do you find inside?
Gu Fenglin glanced at it lightly and ordered: "Go to the secret passage."
