It's over! Xu Yitian and Chen Guishuo sighed in their hearts. They were relieved to know that they were going to be let go, but their hearts sank because of Niu You Dao 's words. No need to guess, it must be Song Yanqing who has no bones and brought everything out. Otherwise, how could Niu You Dao know such a thing?

Song Yanqing 's revealing of this kind of secret is equivalent to letting Niu You Dao grasp the handle of Shangqing Sect . In the end, the two of them don't know how to deal with Tang Susu , and they are afraid that it will make Tang Susu angry!

Yuan Gang raised the knife and fell, the dagger cut the rope on Chen Guishuo's body, kicked Chen Guishuo 's back, and rolled Chen Guishuo down the steps.

When Chen Guishuo got up and looked back, his pupils shrank suddenly, his face was full of horror, and he saw a cold light flashing across Xu Yitian 's neck, and hot blood sprayed out.

Cutting Xu Yitian 's neck with a knife, Yuan Gang kicked Xu Yitian over again with his eyes wide open and blood bubbling from his mouth .

Seeing Xu Yitian rolling to his feet and twitching , Chen Guishuo 's Adam's apple twitched, and he didn't dare to act rashly. Niu You Dao 's strength is there, and he is injured. In this situation, he can't run away.

Niu You Dao with both hands in front of the sword was expressionless, and he didn't ask Yuan Gang why he wanted to kill Xu Yitian , and didn't even look at Yuan Gang 's movements.

Instead, Yuan Gang gave him an explanation, "Go back and bring a message, one person is enough!"

Niu You Dao still didn't say a word, didn't even blink his eyes. He had already guessed in his heart when he heard the guards talking about the process of fighting on the mountainside, because he knew monkeys too well, and Xu Yitian's death was nothing more than It confirmed a certain judgment in his heart, Xu Yitian killed so many guards, the monkey will not let him go away alive!

"Get out!" Yuan Gang shouted at Chen Guishuo below again .

Chen Guishuo didn't dare to stay, got permission, turned his head immediately, and left quickly down the mountain.

With a calm expression on his face, Niu You Dao raised his sword and turned around to visit the temple...

Due to limited conditions, it is inconvenient to take away the corpses of more than 30 bodyguards all the way, and it is also inconvenient to send them back to their hometown one by one under the current situation. The so-called loyal bones are buried everywhere in the green mountains. A group of people chose a place where wind and water gather in the nearby mountains and forests, dug graves on the spot, and buried the guards who died in battle one by one.

The speed of many people working together is also fast. Someone split wood to make tombstones, and after engraving the inscriptions, they drove piles in front of each tombstone one by one.

While everyone was busy here, Shang Shuqing found the person involved at the time of the incident and asked about the details of the incident again. Knowing that Guan Tie had detained Yuan Gang before his death , she asked about Yuan Gang 's detailed actions at that time .

After grasping the situation a little bit, Shang Shuqing fell into deep thought.

All the guards who died in battle were settled. Shang Chaozong greeted Shang Shuqing to come over, toast, offer incense and send off together. The incense was brought from the temple.

As soon as the ceremony was over, it was already dusk, and everyone dispersed one after another. Those who should be on guard, those who should go back to the temple to rest, all in all felt very heavy. Before reaching the fief, more than 30 elites had been lost.

Shang Chaozong , Blue Ruoting , and Shang Shuqing had just returned to the gate of the temple when a guard came running to report to Shang Chaozong , "My lord, Yuan Gang has gone to the cemetery of the brothers."

Shang Chaozong nodded without thinking too much, and was about to enter the temple gate when Shang Shuqing said, "Brother, I'm going back to the cemetery."

Shang Chaozong tilted his head and sighed: "After so many brothers died, everyone is in a bad mood. It's good to remember some things in your heart. It's the best way to think about how to arrange their families. Don't pay too much attention to the surface. Brother, I know it in my heart, and I don’t like that. Besides, we are not familiar with the situation here. It’s not suitable for you to be alone and weak. Don’t think too much. Go back and rest, get enough energy, and you have to go early tomorrow morning .”

Shang Shuqing knew that Shang Chaozong had misunderstood her, thinking that she was going to guard the tomb, "Brother, I'll go see Yuan Gang , maybe I can help you persuade him to stay!"

"Huh?" Shang Chaozong turned around slowly, and Blue Ruoting also turned to look at her, both with puzzled faces.

Shang Shuqing nodded to the two of them, then turned around and walked away quickly, with a graceful figure floating down the mountain.

"What do you mean by Qing'er? Can you really convince Yuan Gang to stay?" Shang Chaozong turned around and asked Blue Ruoting .

Blue Ruoting shook his head, "Yuan Gang obviously sees Niu You Dao as his leader. Although Niu You Dao is Mr. Dong Guo's disciple, he has never been taught by Mr. Dong Guo. His mentality is no different from other monks. I'm afraid he doesn't want to cause this trouble. However, the princess is talented and intelligent, so she won't be aimless, since she can say that, there must be some reason, the prince may as well wait and see!"

The sky is half dark, in the green hills, there are new graves.

Yuan Gang wandered around for a while, picked a bunch of wild flowers, tied them into a beautiful and bright bouquet, and took the bouquet to the new grave. Guan Tie's tombstone is right in the middle of the front, so it's easy to find. Yuan Gang came to the front, bent down and lowered his body, the bouquet was placed in front of the tombstone, stood upright after getting up, quietly looking at the name on the tombstone, his eyes seemed a little dazed, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

There was a slight movement of wading through the weeds, Yuan Gang suddenly turned his head, his hand subconsciously touched the handle of the dagger, only to see that it was Shang Shuqing wearing a gauze hat , suddenly tensed like a cheetah, and then slowly relaxed , and his fingers moved away from the dagger.

Shang Shuqing stopped beside him, staring at the bouquet in front of the tombstone, said: "This is the first time I have seen the ceremony of laying flowers in front of the tombstone."

Yuan Gang said indifferently: "There is no ceremony."

Looking at the sky, Shang Shuqing didn't plan to go around with him, "Before Guan Tie died, he hoped that Brother Yuan would stay, but Brother Yuan never gave an answer. Can you give him an answer now?"

Yuan Gang said calmly: "We are not on the same road, I can't stay."

Shang Shuqing : "Why can't you stay?"

Yuan Gang : "Because Master Dao won't stay."

These words made Shang Shuqing a little helpless, and said: "He is a monk. No monk dares to agree with the situation of my brother and sister. Otherwise, he will be suppressed by other monks. What's more, he has provoked the Song family. If the goal is fixed It is easy to be killed by the Song family. We can understand that he does not want to stay, but you are different from a mage. If you stay, no one will deliberately target you, and the Song family will not notice you. Brother Yuan, my brother and I appreciate you very much . I believe his vision in this regard. Our brothers and sisters can't show anything now, and we only have a sincere heart. Our brothers and sisters sincerely invite you Stay, I think this is what Guan Tie wants to see."

Yuan Gang : "I know what you brothers and sisters think. You think Master Dao 's cultivation level is not high. That's because you're blind to gold. In your situation, Master Dao’s ability is more important than his cultivation level." , you retained the wrong person!"

Shang Shuqing said with great interest: "I would like to hear the details!"

Unexpectedly, Yuan Gang had no expression on his face, " Master Dao stays, I stay, Master Dao goes, I go!"

Dare to say a lot, Shang Shuqing smiled bitterly: "Then how can the mage stay?" She really didn't have any confidence in keeping Niu You Dao .

Yuan Gang said indifferently: " Master Dao used to say a word...the world is flying, it doesn't matter whether it's wind or rain!"

Shang Shuqing was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood the meaning of these words. There were not many things that could make Niu You Dao care about, but he could hear a glimmer of hope from the other party's words, otherwise the other party would not need to mention Niu You Dao 's past. Seeing that his judgment was correct, he said excitedly: "I don't know what can make Master Dao stay in the world?"

Yuan Gang was silent for a while, and finally stared at Guan Tie's tombstone and said, " Master Dao is more interested in things in practice!"After speaking, he immediately strode back and didn't want to say a word more. It was he who had done what he shouldn't have done and said what he shouldn't have said today, which had already gotten Master Dao into trouble.

Shang Shuqing turned to look after her, her bright eyes flickering under her veil, revealing an uplifting expression. She had previously come into contact with Niu You Dao and found that he had no reliable words, and couldn't find the direction to start. Yuan Gang's words were like pointing in that direction

In Nanshan Temple, when it was meal time, Shang Shuqing was still missing. The food was already set on the table, and Shang Chaozong , who was sitting cross-legged, asked Blue Ruoting , "Why hasn't Qinger come back yet?"

Blue Ruoting shook his head slightly, stretched out his hand and said: "My lord, use it first, the food will be warmed up for the princess, don't worry about the princess, someone is watching, and I will report in time if there is anything to do."

As soon as the words were finished here, a guard came in from outside the door and handed over his hands to report: "My lord, the princess sent a message to let the lord and Mr. Lan eat first, so you don't have to wait for her."

Shang Chaozong frowned: "Is there anything the Princess wants?"

The personal guard replied: "I don't know, I only know that she went to the mage's side."

Shang Chaozong and Blue Ruoting looked at each other...

An oil lamp in the house was dim, and Niu You Dao was sitting cross-legged on a futon, in front of a small table, on which was placed a plate, which contained a large piece of steaming hot lean meat, which was said to be A wild boar that was hunted not long ago.

"Alas!" Niu You Dao poked a few times with his chopsticks, and couldn't help sighing, it was boiled meat again, and it was such a big lump, how could anyone make a mouthful of it!

Of course, he must also admit that Shang Chaozong and his party did not abuse him in terms of food, and they always gave him the best. In the beginning, when there was an opportunity to eat meat on the road, the guards below brought him the biggest piece of fat meat first. The white and white fat meat made people's eyes dazzled and made them want to vomit. But he can also understand that for those people, for some people in troubled times who can't eat enough to eat, for a group of warriors who consume a lot of energy, this is definitely a good thing, the biggest fat is given to you, yes You can't be better.

But he had no luck to enjoy, and later he told them that he would not eat fat meat, but only lean meat, and the big piece in front of him was one of the results.

Lean meat is lean meat. You should at least cut it into small pieces and make it finer. It’s such a big lump, and you can just boil it in plain water and sprinkle some salt before serving it? He really can't compliment the cooking skills of this era. To him, even some shallots mixed with tofu are better than this.

This was already the first time he had told himself in his heart that when he stabilized, the eating problem must be improved.------------
