Early the next morning, the four brothers had to go to the city gate early in the morning. One of the disciples who had a close relationship with Senior Brother Xiao whispered to him: "If you can hide this matter, just hide it, or say that you lost your energy during the practice last night, so you have to rest for a few days if you don't feel comfortable."
Brother Xiao said: "Just sit at the gate of the city, nothing will happen."
The disciple sighed: "You are too honest. What's the use of guarding that? You don't need to stop the small fish and small shrimps. If there are really powerful people coming, you can't stop them. I heard that Elder Lu... I'm afraid it's you I can't come back."
Brother Xiao was taken aback: "How do you say that?"
When the disciple saw someone coming, he didn't answer his question. After the two fellow students who passed by had gone far away, he said, "Isn't your master from Elder Lu's side? If Elder Lu really falls for you, you have to be more careful."
No matter how good the friendship between the two is, it was not taught by one master. It would be the best of humanity for someone to take the risk of reminding him so much. Brother Xiao thanked him. But today we still have to go to the gate of the city.
Although he also knows that it doesn't matter whether he does this job or not. If he was paid out, it would be difficult for them to get timely news of what happened in the sect, and they would not be able to help the master much.
Alas, thinking about it is also frustrating. These people are already indifferent to the future of the sect, and they just want to take advantage of this opportunity to pocket more benefits, so that others can't grab it.
But when the time came, Senior Brother Mou didn't come. The one who came was an outer disciple from their lineage. Personally, he hurriedly bowed and smiled: "Senior brother Mou lost his strength in practicing kung fu last night, and he couldn't get up today. He was afraid of delaying things, so he specially asked me to come here to listen to the orders of some senior brothers."
Even this excuse is so perfunctory...
It was exactly the same idea that someone else gave him casually in the morning.
But in the current situation, do you still deliberately rush over to expose him
Why bother.
In the current situation, no one wants to sit still and wait for death. The sect is on the decline, and I heard that the Wanshi Villa has found troubles several times, both openly and secretly, and they will not stop until they trample the Burial Sword Valley to death. If the sect is really destroyed, what should they do
Since people want to find a way out for themselves, why should they bother? Besides, if you are not a master's apprentice, you shouldn't cross the line.
There is also a Zongmen Formation in the Burial Sword Valley, which was set up by the ancestor when he established the sect, and it has been handed down to this day, most of which have been abandoned and invalid. Some important positions of the sect are still somewhat protected, and it is difficult for ordinary people to approach. Most places say that there are also formations, but in fact they have long existed in name only, and even ordinary people can come and go freely.
For example, that sectarian cemetery is usually deserted and cold, and generally no one would come here, even the guards were slack. Mo Chen came all the way and didn't even meet a ghost.
Mrs. Rouzhu's tomb is not difficult to find. Zongmen's cemetery is not where anyone can be buried. It is arranged according to seniority and status. Ordinary people in the sect died and were buried, of course it is impossible to be buried in the same place as the previous valley owners.
Mrs. Rou Zhu is the wife of Gu Zhu, and she should be buried with Wu Gu Zhu. One tomb with two caves, leaving a place for Guzhu Wu.
But what Mo Chen sees now is not the case.
Mrs. Rouzhu was buried next to his father's grave.
No matter how capable a person is, he can't be the master of his own death. Where Mrs. Rouzhu is buried must be decided by her husband.
She was buried according to her father, and Guzhu Wu will definitely not be buried here in the future.
It seems that the relationship between this couple is not only indifferent, but even the superficial harmony, Guzhu Wu is unwilling to maintain it.
They don't even want to be buried together after death. When they are alive, this couple may have turned against each other, right
If so, how could they have children
Mo Chen stood in front of the grave, silent for a while.
The guards must have been slacking off for a long time, and the grass beside the grave was growing crazy.
The person buried in the grave is likely to be his biological mother and grandfather. And in the tomb farther away, his great-grandfathers were buried.
It's not that Mo Chen never thought about what kind of people his parents were and where they lived.
But now he was very calm, as if he was facing someone else's life experience.
People who practice Taoism don't pay attention to those red tapes, and they only come here because they think of what the master said, so they come here specially.
No matter how great a hero is, or how powerful he was in life, if he can't ascend to the Tao, he can only die and be buried like an ordinary person, turning into a piece of loess. The tombstones erected piece by piece here are one by one who failed in seeking the Tao.
Mo Chen stood there for a while, then turned and left the cemetery.
He still has many things to do when he comes to the Burial Sword Valley, not just to pay tribute to the deceased.
The four people guarding the city gate were more silent than yesterday. The round-faced boy was full of energy yesterday, but today he became listless and listless.
He already knew that this job was almost like exile, and of course he would not be motivated anymore.
