Chixiao Temple, a side hall in the backyard.
In addition to Lu Zheng and others, there are also Ling Kunzi, Chixiao Temple's contemporary temple master Jinghe Zhenren, several real people who are close friends with Yuning Zhenren, several Taoist priests in charge of the temple, and top contemporary disciples.
Master Jinghe was reading the letter written by Master Mingyu to him, while the two old men were holding a small sword and a jade talisman.
In the middle of the main hall, there is an ebony coffin, with the coffin lid placed on the side, revealing the body of Zhenren Yuning.
Lu Zheng happened to tell the story in detail from the moment he met the real person Yuning to the time when the real person Yuning cut off his heart and asked him to return the jade talisman to Chixiao Temple.
"That's what happened." Lu Zheng said, "Of course, senior Yu Ning was possessed by the devil at that time, so I'm not sure whether what he said is true or false."
Master Changli of Chixiao Temple nodded, "It is indeed true. He was a Taoist priest from Luoxia Temple in Puzhou, Guanglin Road. He had a close relationship with Yuning back then. Unfortunately, he accidentally obtained a magic weapon and fell into The devil was finally killed by Yu Ning himself."
Master Jinghe put down the letter, looked at Master Yuning who was lying quietly in the ebony coffin, and then looked at the specially built coffin. He nodded and thanked Lu Zheng, "My dear friend, I have a heart, and I would like to thank you very much for stopping Yu Ning." Uncle Ning did not let him continue to kill innocent people."
"You're welcome, Master. This is what a junior should do." Lu Zheng bowed in return.
As Zhenren Jinghe thanked him, several other Zhenzhen elders, temple stewards, contemporary disciples, etc. all bowed to express their thanks. Lu Zheng couldn't help but sigh, nothing happened!
Although only Ling Kunzi knew Si Lingxi's identity, the presence of Ling Kunzi in this hall and the letter sent by Lu Zheng meant that there would be no trouble in this matter.
Lu Zheng prevented Master Yuning from continuing to do evil, and the influence was not spread. He maintained the reputation of Chixiao Temple and was the benefactor of Chixiao Temple.
Several elders looked at Lu Zheng with satisfaction in their eyes.
Although he came with several of his wives, it can be seen that apart from Master Mingyu, their family also knew about this matter. However, this matter was originally caused by Master Yuning, and when it happened, Even outside the benevolent hall of the empress Qing Yi, she couldn’t hide it.
So they really have nothing to say.
Fortunately, they are all members of the same family. One is the Peach Blossom Fairy canonized by the imperial court, the other is the Qing Yi Empress certified by Emperor Jing, and although the third one is not known to her, judging from the attitude of Liu Qingyan and the two girls towards her, it is obviously not easy. generation.
At the same time, their only doubt was, how did Lu Zheng kill the possessed Yu Ning?
You know, Lu Zheng told the details of what happened, but it is impossible to explain the details of the fight in detail. If you really want to say it, it will be a story.
What's more... tell me in detail how he killed Master Yu Ning? Lu Zheng didn't look so cold either.
In addition, when visiting at this time, it is natural not to act in a public manner, so Lu Zheng and others restrained their aura and did not show off their appearance. No one except Ling Kunzi could see the depth of Lu Zheng's cultivation.
So several real people walked around Lu Zheng's body, feeling shocked and suspicious.
Did Baiyun admire his sect's greatest treasure? Or was he and several ladies laying siege together? Or was it that Master Yuning had been injured at that time or that the conflict between good and evil in his body had caused his cultivation to drop?
Or... this disciple of the Yuan generation in Baiyun Temple is really extremely talented. After twenty or thirty years of practice, he can already defeat Master Yuning?
No, no, no, he shouldn't be the last one. It seems that Master Yu Ning is still true to the Tao and suppresses the demonic thoughts in his heart. It just so happens that Lu Zheng's cultivation level is not weak, so he took the opportunity to evacuate under his hand. .
In this way...it is an advantage for this junior...
I thought this in my heart, but no matter what, it was Lu Zheng who stopped Master Yu Ning, and the elders of the real people were still sensible. Although Master Yu Ning was sad and died of being possessed, it was impossible to anger Lu Zheng.
So he still talked to Lu Zheng in a gentle manner and expressed his gratitude to Lu Zheng.
"Let's first use this side hall as the mourning hall for Master Yuning's uncle. Tomorrow, we will perform a ritual ceremony for Master Yuning and bury him in the back mountain." Master Jinghe said.
"Respect the Lord's decree." Several Taoist priests bowed to receive the order.
"Little friend Lu, I would like to thank you for traveling thousands of miles to deliver the body of Master Yuning and preparing this coffin for me. I would like to invite you to stay in the temple today and to watch the ceremony together tomorrow." Jinghe Zhenren said.
"That's how it should be." Lu Zheng nodded, as it should be.
"Xiting."
"Disciple is here." A young Taoist priest with a young face but good cultivation stepped forward and bowed to answer.
"Arrange a quiet courtyard for Lu Xiaoyou and his wife, and then accompany them around the temple." Master Jinghe ordered, "These are distinguished guests in the temple, so be sure to pay attention."
After Master Jinghe finished his instructions, he subconsciously glanced at Ling Kunzi for instructions.
Because it was Ling Kunzi who brought Lu Zheng and others here just now. According to Ling Kunzi, he was very bored and felt the atmosphere of Lu Zheng Baiyun Temple. When he went out to take a look, he happened to learn about the real person Yu Ning. .
So although he thought there was no problem with the arrangement of Lu Zheng and others, he still glanced at Ling Kunzi subconsciously.
Of course Ling Kunzi had no objection either.
Although the relationship between Si Lingxi and Lu Zheng is not a secret, it is not a secret only in a small circle, and there is no need to shout about it everywhere. To ordinary people, she is Lu Zheng's wife, not to mention that Jinghe Zhenren treats Lu Zheng There is nothing wrong with the arrangement.
So Master Jinghe asked Taoist priest Xiting to take Lu Zheng and others away, and then asked the Taoist priest in charge to arrange manpower and decorate the mourning hall.
…
"Junior Brother Yuan Zheng, please!"
Taoist Master Xiting led Lu Zheng and others to a quiet courtyard in the west courtyard of the Taoist Temple, and asked Lu Zheng, "Is this place satisfactory?"
"Very good, thank you very much, Senior Brother Xiting." Lu Zheng thanked him.
This courtyard is not big. As soon as you enter the courtyard, the gate faces west. There is a living room and a bedroom in the east, and there are two wing rooms in the north and south.
But even in such a remote and quiet courtyard, the decoration is still luxurious.
There are two window openings on the wall of the west courtyard, with hollow carvings of auspicious clouds and white cranes. The beams and columns outside the room are carved with patterns, the window paper is white, the door curtains are all silk brocade, and the glazed tiles reflect the sunlight and reflect the corners of the cornices.
As expected of the leader of the Taoist sect located in Zhongjing, he is really rich!
Several people walked into the courtyard. Taoist Master Xiting gave Lu Zheng a brief introduction to the surrounding environment, and then asked, seemingly unintentionally, "I heard that Junior Brother Yuan Zheng was traveling with Senior Brother Yuan Lin at this year's New Year's Dharma Assembly in Baiyun Temple. ?”
Lu Zheng raised his eyebrows, nodded and said with a smile, "My love, Lord."
"I have long heard that Baiyun Temple's "Xiantian Taiqing Rootless Yunqi Sutra" is wonderful and wonderful, but it is a pity that I have never been able to see it." Taoist Xiting's words were very beautiful, "Junior brother happened to be here today. It is still early, so it is not as good as you and me. Let’s talk about Taoism?”
