I am a martial god, proving the way with a sword

Chapter 299
It takes seven days to guard the spirit before they can be buried, but Wu Yan doesn't want to stay there for a moment. It's not that he doesn't want to guard the spirit for his grandson, but because he remembered that Song Boyu hurriedly sent everyone away that day, and then encountered an accident, thinking that there must be something strange .

"Who on earth killed my good grandson? It would be a waste not to avenge this!" Wu Yan's eyes were full of anger, and his mood was like the magma underground of a volcano, which seemed to be brewing a shocking explosion.

Lu Qiuming, Xun Feipeng, Ba Ang, Du Li and others held disciple ceremonies and cried for Song Boyu. Cui Xiancheng, Liu Qianfu, Lu Youyou and others from Linyi County also came to express their condolences, and Liu Xiangjun and other close friends also came. He came to visit Xiuniang and express his condolences, and his registered disciples Lu Feiying and Cui Jue also came to express their condolences.

On the third day, Zhou Xiuniang was so sad that she felt haggard and fainted many times. Everyone wanted her to rest, but Xiuniang refused to leave.

At this time, the messenger sent by the imperial court came to Daze Township together with Lang Guan of Jingping Yamen who did not participate in the operation to seal King Wuling and survived.

"Zi Youzheng, the eighth-rank officer, is Song Boyu. He is loyal to the country. He and Pi Zheng and others sacrificed their lives to suppress King Wuling. His bravery is commendable and his loyalty is pitiable. The Lingfa Secretary specially invites the Prime Minister's Palace to posthumously reward him as the seventh-rank Jingping envoy. , I have given my sister the eighth grade imperial edict, and comforted her relatives with three thousand guans."

After the envoy arrived, he didn't delay much. After reading the Prime Minister's order, he gave Zhou Xiuniang the posthumous official position and the imperial edict, and then ordered people to carry three thousand strings into the backyard.

Xun Feipeng, Ba Ang and others quickly invited the two people to the table. Wu Yan had many doubts about Song Boyu's death, so he sat at the table with the two people and kept asking questions.

But the two of them knew very little about the details. They only knew that Pi Zheng led the team and invited a great casual cultivator named Zhou Baxian to break the magic embryo coming ceremony together. How they all died later is unknown.

This was after the Lord of Changxiang reported it to the court, and the anti-rebellion team composed of the court and the three holy places discovered that the seal of King Wuling had been broken, but his existence was completely destroyed instead of escaping.

The court's calculation experts reasonably deduced and "saw" the scene of Pi Zheng, Zhou Baxian and others fighting against King Wuling and the Demon Fetus. However, the final scene was interfered with and could not be known, so they had to collect the bones and send them home for burial. .

Such an explanation certainly did not satisfy Wu Yan. He decided to watch Song Boyu's burial with his own eyes before investigating the matter.

While several people were talking, Xiu Niang also listened quietly, her brows knitted into a ball. She felt the same about this matter.

Chen Zhengqing, the only surviving spirit god, has also been depressed these days. He can sense that the true spirit of the Lord Lord is in the corpse Niwan Shenzang, and he can also enter the dilapidated Niwan Shenzang wonders, because there are The five magic weapons of merit and virtue can still be maintained here and have not collapsed.

But he couldn't contact the remnant soul of the Lord's true spirit that had taken refuge in the Dragon Spine Sword. It was shrouded in a ball of silver light, isolating the inside and outside, and he couldn't sense anything.

"Even if the master, the great master, dies, all his merits will be refined into the magic weapon of merit. But with the protection of the magic weapon of merit, the residual soul of the master should be able to slowly repair, reshape his true body, and enter the divine way."

Chen Zhengqing was running around anxiously. In the past few days, his strength had become weaker and weaker. If he hadn't received the gift from the Lord and learned the method of spiritual god cultivation, he might have followed in the footsteps of other spiritual gods.

"After the Lord is buried, I will have a good discussion with Master Wu and Miss Xiuniang to find a way to reshape the Lord's true body." He had already made up his mind, but he was not in a hurry. He was still trying, hoping that he could Just in case.

Time flies by on the seventh day, and Daze Township welcomes another special mourner.

A group of knights in black filed in, and the Linyi County Magistrate personally led them to the vicinity of Song Boyu's mourning hall.

The knights in black dismounted outside the mourning hall. One of the short knights took off his helmet, and it turned out to be a young girl in armor. Her eyes were big and lively, as if there were waves in the water. She was very beautiful. Even though she was a little dark and sad now, she still had a unique charm. .

The little girl gently pressed her chest, and the appearance of Qingluan appeared, and the armor disappeared. She wore a plain white dress, took out a piece of white linen cloth to cover her head, slowly knelt down, and walked in crying.

No one knew who this little girl was, but the county official was leading the way, so she must be a noble lady.

An acquaintance asked the county magistrate, but he just smiled and did not introduce him.

The little girl entered the mourning hall on her knees, crying, with a sad expression, and threw herself directly into Zhou Xiuniang's arms.

Everyone was shocked. Xiu Niang had been too sad in the past few days and her body was quite weak. Now if she collided again, it would be bad if something happened.

Xiu Niang was also surprised at first, but when she looked at the little girl carefully, she felt that she was very familiar and overlapped with a figure in her memory.

"Are you Yingning?"

Xiu Niang's voice was low, with some hesitation.

"Yes, sister, it's great that you still remember me. It's a pity that my brother is gone. I have missed you all these years. I have tried to find you several times, but I was not allowed at home. I was shocked to hear that my brother was murdered a few days ago. It took a lot of trouble to come here to express condolences." The little girl was Su Yingning, she said with some joy and sorrow.

Xiu Niang hugged Su Yingning very tightly, her voice choked with sobs: "In the autumn of the 20th year of Qingping, you went to the capital. It has been four years. You can come to see your brother for the last time. If he knew, he would be very happy." happy."

The two cried together, and it took a long time to calm down. Su Yingning, with Xiuniang's consent, opened the coffin lid and took one last look at Song Boyu.

After just one glance, she couldn't help but look again.

Song Boyu looked haggard and turned completely into a mummy. This made Ying Ning find it hard to accept that the boy who pierced the darkness like light and illuminated the way forward for him, the boy who risked his life to save himself during the blood moon. How did this man become like this now?

Unable to bear to see, but wanting to see, Ying Ning endured the grief and stared down at Song Boyu again, trying to remember his current appearance: "Brother, I will definitely find out the truth. If there is still an enemy alive, he will be miserable. die!"

Ying Ning stayed for one night, and the next day, he went to the funeral together with everyone on the first seven days, sent Song Boyu to be buried, and then left here.

It's not that she doesn't want to stay here, it's just that her family doesn't allow her to come here to express her condolences. It's all because she forced her to die.

Looking back at Daze Township, Ying Ning's big eyes were filled with tears. She bit her lower lip and thought to herself: "My brother is gone after all. The person who once protected me is gone. I want to be stronger and braver!"

That night, the old man Wu Yan left a letter and left. He wanted to go to the tomb of King Wuling in person to look for clues and find out the hidden truth.

At the same time as Song Boyu was buried, Pi Zheng, Du Renlong, Shu Min, Chen Daorong and other Ping Yilang officials whom Song Boyu was not familiar with were also buried together. They were buried near the Confucian Temple in Shangxiang Prefecture and enjoyed the incense of all people, but their heroic souls remained. He did not appear, and some people speculated that he might have re-entered reincarnation.

At midnight, Xiuniang was sleeping soundly. Chen Zhengqing floated to her door and knocked gently.
