Lin Yi and the other three rested in the mountains for a night, and the next day they went to Qilan's cemetery. Lin Yi paid homage to his mother-in-law, and Xiao Lianqin paid homage to his wife.
They were ready to leave after worshiping.
The two came to Qilan's grave.
The loyal servant of Nanyuan who stayed behind also took good care of Qilan's small cemetery.
There are no weeds in the tomb, and flowers are blooming around the tomb.
Xiao Lianqin knelt down in front of the grave and said to her master's wife's grave: "Master, Master is very good now, but he has completely forgotten the past. That's good, Master will no longer suffer. I will also take good care of Master...
…”
Lin Yi also said to the tomb: "Mother-in-law, my son-in-law has come to pay homage to you. Jin'er is very good, and our daughter Xiaofu is also smart and lovely, just like Jin'er when she was a child."
The tomb is silent, only the flowers and plants in front of the tomb are swaying gently.
Lin Yi saw a yellow spring flower on the left side of the tombstone. The flowers were as bright as blood.
Lin Yi said to Xiao Lianqin: "Lianqin, there was no such flower in front of the marquis's grave back then. After I escaped from the 'Demon Prison', I went to the south to look for Jin'er and came to pay my respects, and I found this flower."
Xiao Lianqin said: "This is what Master transplanted later."
Lin Yi said: "Is this also called the 'soul-inducing flower'?"
Xiao Lianqin said: "Yes."
Lin Yi suddenly remembered something. Linghu Zanghun also came to worship Qilan more than once. Lin Yi heard Su Jin'er talk about something. At that time, Lin Yi and Su Qinghou fled to Kunlun.
Gu Lingfeng came to Beifu, and one time Linghu Zanghun brought Su Jin'er back to pay homage to Qilan. Linghu Zanghun told Su Jin'er that when he died, he hoped to be buried beside Qilan's tomb, accompanying her.
Later, the situation changed drastically, and Linghu's wish to hide his soul became in vain.
Lin Yi looked at the "soul-attracting flower" and said to Xiao Lianqin: "Back then, the Marquis, Linghu Zanghun, and my mother-in-law were emotionally entangled... Linghu Zanghun wanted to be buried beside my mother-in-law's grave after death.
, do you think the Marquis will bury Linghu’s soul-hiding bones in front of my mother-in-law’s grave?”
Xiao Lianqin said: "How is this possible! Although my master cherishes the hero Linghu Zanghun, but... after all, Linghu Zanghun and his master's mother have a past... It is absolutely impossible..."
Xiao Lianqin meant that Linghu Zanghun and Su Qinghou were love rivals. How could Su Qinghou bury his love rival's bones next to his beloved wife's grave?
Lin Yi said: "The Marquis' actions are sometimes unpredictable. He also moved the 'soul-attracting flower' next to the grave. Maybe... or we..."
Xiao Lianqin interrupted Lin Yi and said, "You want to dig a grave? You can't do that!"
Lin Yi said: "I just want to dig a place for this 'soul-inducing flower'. I will never damage my mother-in-law's grave."
Xiao Lianqin thought for a while, and finally nodded.
Lin Yi then went to Qilan's grave and said, "I hope my mother-in-law has a soul in heaven and can sympathize with my son-in-law's difficulties and forgive him for his disrespect."
Then Lin Yi carefully dug under the "soul-inducing flower". As he dug deeper and deeper, an iron box was exposed. Lin Yi and Xiao Lianqin's eyes suddenly lit up.
Lin Yi took out the iron box and wiped away the dirt on it.
There was a lock on the iron box, so Lin Yi broke the lock and opened the iron box.
Xiao Lianqin watched intently.
Inside the iron box is a box wrapped in oilcloth. Unfold the layers of oilcloth to reveal a mahogany box.
Xiao Lianqin said excitedly: "It's this mahogany box!"
Su Qinghou actually buried the bones of Linghu's hidden soul next to his beloved wife's grave, which was against common sense. This was really unexpected. Xiao Lianqin found it unbelievable.
Lin Yi opened the mahogany box and found a handkerchief on top.
There is still writing on the handkerchief.
Lin Yi and Xiao Lianqin looked at the words on the handkerchief, which read: Yin and Yang have been separated for several years, and the hidden soul in the West Sea has come to find it. Although the hidden soul has become a demon, it will never change its infatuation with you. You were with me when you were alive, so stay with him now.
A grudge, let it go. From now on, Lianqin will be with me for the rest of my life.
Xiao Lianqin snatched the handkerchief over. The handkerchief was in Master's handwriting.
She looked at the last eight words on the handkerchief, "It's enough for Lianqin to stay with me for the rest of my life." She was very excited.
This shows that the master cares about her and does not just regard her as his disciple.
Looking at these eight words, Xiao Lianqin was extremely happy. She felt that everything she had paid for her master was worth it.
Xiao Lianqin suddenly laughed happily.
Lin Yi also smiled, and he said to Xiao Lianqin: "Sister Qin, you are extraordinary in the heart of the Marquis. I think Jin'er and I have to change our ways of calling you in the future..."
Xiao Lianqin's face felt hot after hearing this. Fortunately, she was wearing a mask, otherwise Lin Yi would have seen Xiao Lianqin's face turn red now.
Xiao Lianqin said: "There is no formal shape, let's take a look at Linghu's bones."
There was something wrapped in silk and satin in the box. Lin Yi opened the silk and satin, and what was wrapped inside was a rib. It was the same rib that Wang Huihui had pulled out of Linghu's soul-hiding cavity.
There is also a piece of paper wrapped around the center of the ribs.
Lin Yi took the piece of paper and looked at it. There was no word on both sides!
A blank piece of paper.
Xiao Lianqin was stunned when she saw that there was no word on the paper. It was really difficult for her to understand its meaning.
Lin Yi suddenly smiled with relief.
Lin Yi said: "It seems that we have overthought it. The Marquis has not studied it... maybe the Marquis has not studied it at all. He may have taken Linghu's soul-hiding bone just out of curiosity. Later, he planned to use Linghu's soul-hiding bone to
The bones are buried here, but there are emotional entanglements. And this white paper is because Marquis Youwei has a mysophobia. He will not hold the bones with his own hands, so he put a piece of white paper on it."
Xiao Lianqin listened to Lin Yi's analysis and said in disappointment: "If you say so, our trip was in vain."
Lin Yi looked at her and said: "You didn't run in vain, you gained a lot. I will obey the Marquis now."
Xiao Lianqin also laughed.
Indeed, the harvest is huge.
Xiao Lianqin put the handkerchief away like a treasure and placed it closest to her heart.
Lin Yi put away the white paper, then wrapped the bones of Linghu's hidden soul in silk and satin and placed them in a wooden box. Then he wrapped them in oilcloth and buried them in the iron box as they were.
After restoring their original appearance, the two came out of the cemetery.
The little boy has been letting loose nearby.
The little boy came over and said to the two of them: "Someone is coming this way on horseback. There are seven of them."
Xiao Lianqin climbed up a tree and looked in that direction.
As those people got closer and closer, Xiao Lianqin recognized the leader, and she suddenly became excited.
When the leader saw three people in front of the cemetery, they also clapped and sped up.
The people behind him followed him on horseback.
Lin Yi also recognized that the leader was actually Gu Lingfeng, Su Qinghou's most proud disciple at that time. Lin Yi really didn't expect to meet Gu Lingfeng here.
Gu Lingfeng came over with a pat on his back.
Gu Lingfeng is dressed in gorgeous brocade clothes. He is fatter than before and his skin is whiter.
There were six people behind him, one of whom was a beautiful young woman. The other five were all men, all wearing swords.
At this moment, Lin Yi and the three of them had changed their appearance, and Gu Lingfeng could not recognize them.
Gu Lingfeng looked at the three of them and said with a cold expression: "Who are you? What are you doing in this cemetery? Do you want to rob tombs?"
An eagle-eyed man behind Gu Lingfeng shouted: "Our master asks you to answer honestly!"
After saying that, the man waved his hand and his men surrounded the three of them.
