According to the simple map drawn by Chang Xiaomin, Qin Hai quickly arrived at the entrance of the back mountain.
There were people guarding the entrance to the back mountain. The two men were resting against the stone walls on both sides of the entrance, as if they had fallen asleep.
But Qin Hai hid in the dark and observed for a while, and found that there was a group of people hiding in the bushes on both sides of the entrance. The two people outside were obviously just a cover, and in fact it was a trap.
Qin Hai thought for a moment and then changed his appearance again, becoming like an ordinary disciple.
He walked to the entrance in a swagger, and the two men immediately stopped him, "Stop, the forbidden area behind the mountain, no one can get close to it, don't you know?"
Qin Hai said: "Two senior brothers, I came here on the order of Hall Master Hou."
"What orders does the hall master have?" After hearing what Qin Hai said, several people hiding in the bushes quickly appeared, and the leader asked.
"The hall master said that the top priority now is to find Miss Min first. Everyone must go all out to find Miss Min as soon as possible. Whoever can discover and catch Miss Min first will be rewarded by the hall master!"
"Then we don't need to worry about it here?" the leader asked with a frown. He stared at Qin Hai for a moment and asked, "What's your name? Why haven't I seen you before?"
Qin Hai grinned and said: "My name is Qin Hai. According to the arrangement of the hall master, I have been staying at the execution hall, so all the senior brothers have never seen me before. The hall master said, let me help all the senior brothers to guard the back mountain.
At the entrance, the top priority is to find Miss Min as soon as possible."
"That's it!" The man nodded, and after pondering for a moment, he said: "In that case, Wang Gui, Li Li, you two stay here, and everyone else will follow me to find Miss Min's whereabouts."
"I wish you all the best!" Qin Hai bowed his hands and sent those people away in a flattering manner. After those people left, he smiled and said to the remaining two people: "Two senior brothers,
You have worked so hard, why not go and have a rest nearby, and I will guard the entrance. If there is really any movement, it will not be too late for you to come out!"
Wang Gui and Li Li were the two people who were lazily leaning against the wall just now. Everyone else was hiding aside to rest just now. They were the only two standing guard at the intersection of the back mountain. They had long been dissatisfied. Seeing Qin Hai taking the road like this, they both
The people immediately agreed, and one of them patted Qin Hai's shoulder affectionately.
Unexpectedly, just as they turned around, Qin Hai's palm immediately struck their necks. Wang Gui and Li Li were knocked unconscious without any reaction at all.
Qin Hai stuffed them into the bushes nearby and quickly walked towards the back mountain.
…
At the same time, Ji Wuhua was bowing respectfully in front of an isolated tomb in the back mountain. Buried in the tomb was her and Chang Yiyue's master.
At this time, Chang Yiyue was standing beside Ji Wuhua, and behind Chang Yiyue were the ghost-faced old mother and four other elders of the Flower Burial Palace. Apart from that, there was no one else in the back mountain.
After Ji Wuhua finished kowtowing, he looked at the lonely grave in front of him and pondered for a moment, then said: "Senior sister, when I came here, I remembered the scene when I first entered the Flower Burial Palace. At that time, besides Master, you were the only one I had here.
The first person I met. You are kind-hearted and care about me very much. You treat me like your own sister.
I have always been grateful. Master is also very kind to us, teaches us how to practice, and takes great care of us on weekdays, so I quickly fell in love with the Burial Flower Palace and everything here. Sometimes I just
I’m thinking, how great it would be if we could turn back time and let us stay in that moment forever!”
Chang Yiyue looked at Ji Wuhua quietly and said nothing.
Ji Wuhua smiled, shook his head and said: "Unfortunately, people will grow up eventually and cannot stay in childhood forever. Although Master is very kind to us, she likes you more. In her eyes, you are better than me.
There were too many, so she finally handed over the Burial Flower Palace to you, and I had nothing. Even before Master died, he reminded you to pay attention to my movements and let you be wary of me. When I knew all this, I was very
Han Xin... Senior sister, if it were you instead, what would you think?"
Chang Yiyue still didn't speak, and Ji Wuhua didn't stop either. After laughing twice, he continued: "Yes, Master gave me more resources than he gave you when he was alive, because I understood a very early
The truth is, only babies who cry can get milk. So I kept pretending to be pitiful and tried my best to show off.
Now I show it to Master. She was indeed fooled. She gave me whatever I wanted. Unfortunately, I was too young at the time. I really thought I had successfully deceived everyone, including Master. In fact, Master
You can see everything clearly, so before you die, you will be warned to be careful of me."
Ji Wuhua raised her head and laughed, shedding tears as she smiled, "Actually, Master has never believed in me. In her eyes, she has always regarded you as his successor. I only encourage you."
It’s just a sparring session that keeps working hard.”
She shook her head and said: "I don't accept it! I have worked so hard. I am obviously just a little bit worse than you, but my love for the Burial Flower Palace is no worse than anyone else. Why does she never look down on me? Why does she look down on me?"
Are you the only one? I don’t accept it, so I have to use my own strength to prove that I am no worse than you or anyone else!”
Ji Wuhua turned to look at Chang Yiyue with extremely eager eyes, "So, I am going to defeat you in front of Master's grave and let her know that her choice back then was wrong!"
"You are wrong!"
Chang Yiyue took a step forward and said in a deep voice: "The reason why Master handed over the Flower Burial Palace to me is not because your cultivation is worse than mine, nor because she doesn't trust you, but because of your character."
Not suitable to be the owner of the Flower Burial Palace. Before death
Master did say something to me. She did not tell me to be careful about you, but warned me that you have an extreme personality and are unscrupulous in your actions, so you cannot be entrusted with important tasks. So she did not hand over the Burial Flower Palace to you because you would let the Burial Flower Palace be entrusted to you.
The Flower Palace went astray."
Chang Yiyue continued: "In fact, Master has always thought that you are very talented. If you can calm down and work hard to practice, your future achievements will be extraordinary. So Master said to me before she died that she hopes you can become a funeral practitioner in the future.
The number one master in the history of Flower Palace. Unfortunately, you let her down."
Ji Wuhua sneered and said: "What a person with an extreme personality, and a person who is unscrupulous in his actions! Senior sister, you have also changed. You have become scheming and eloquent. You were not like this back then. Could it be said that you were like that back then?
Are you pretending to be that honest person? If this is really the case, then I must admit that you succeeded!"
"Presumptuous!" The ghost-faced old mother standing behind Chang Yiyue scolded: "Ji Wuhua, the palace master asked you to go up the mountain to worship, and you have done your best. Now that the worship has ended, please come down from the mountain immediately!"
"Going down the mountain?" Ji Wuhua looked around and smiled: "I grew up here since I was a child. This is my home. Do you think I will leave?"
