Squeak--
Following Yuchi Baoqing's order, the dozen or so people carrying the coffin behind him quickly put down the coffin and removed the black cloth.
Then, he pushed the coffin lid with all his might.
Abbot Kuzhi didn't understand and looked at the tanned Yuchi Baoqing.
Yuchi Baoqing did not move. He waited until there was no movement behind him before turning around and bowing to the coffin.
"Master Ku Jing was loyal to the country yesterday. He had once told His Majesty that he hoped to return to Puzhao Temple after his death to listen to Zen and reunite with his old friends.”
With that, Yuchi Baoqing turned to look at Abbot Ku Zhi and said,
"Abbot, I came here today to fulfill Master Ku Jing's last wish and secretly send his body back to your courtyard.
Please accept my condolences, Abbot."
"Junior Brother?"
Reverend Kuzhi's body trembled violently, and his old eyes were filled with disbelief.
He slowly walked to the coffin and stared blankly at the corpse lying inside.
In an instant, thousands of expressions flashed across his face.
In the end.
He sighed softly, put his palms together, and closed his eyes."
"This old monk is a monk.
Since Shidi has such repentance, the Buddhist Sect will naturally open the door to convenience.
Thank you for escorting me, Young General."
"Abbot, you are too kind."
Yuchi Baoqing stepped aside and returned the bow with a respectful expression.
Slight sobbing sounds could be heard.
Among the large group of monks behind Abbot Kuzhi, there were a few people who were also old. When they found out who was in the coffin, grief flashed across their faces.
Buddhist Sect.
He had always turned a deaf ear to the matters outside the monastery and had never taken the initiative to inquire.
Therefore, the monks in Puzhao Temple did not know what had happened on Vermilion Bird Street yesterday.
However…
As Abbot Ku Zhi turned his head, the old monks who were sobbing calmed down, and their faces showed neither joy nor sorrow again.
Yuchi Baoqing placed his hand on the hilt of his saber and looked around at the monks.
"In addition to asking me to escort Master Ku Jing's body, His Majesty also said that Master Ku Jing's identity is a secret. He hopes that the abbot and the other masters can keep their mouths shut and let his identity sink to the bottom of the river forever.”
"I understand. Thank you for your reminder, Young General.”
Reverend Kuzhi pressed his palms together again and led the monks to reply.
Yuchi Baoqing nodded and raised his hand.
"Men, move the coffin to the inner court!”
Huff!
All of a sudden, there was the sound of air being torn apart.
Just as Yuchi Baoqing finished speaking, a cold light shot over from the top of an ancient temple.
Yuchi Baoqing instinctively drew his saber and jumped to the side.
However…
This cold light was not flying towards Yuchi Baoqing.
Instead, it flew towards the huge coffin.
This sudden turn of events caught everyone off guard and they were unable to stop it in time.
Boom!
The cold light hit one end of the black coffin, and the coffin instantly exploded. Wood splinters scattered everywhere, and the corpse inside rolled out.
"Junior Brother!"
Seeing the corpses on the ground, a few elderly monks ran up with their kasayas in their hands, their eyes red. They knelt on the ground and cried out.
" Who's there?!"
Yuchi Baoqing drew his saber and swept his tiger eyes across.
Yuchi Baoqing's subordinates also drew their weapons, looking vigilant.
Whoosh!
This scene happened as fast as lightning. Just as Yuchi Baoqing reminded everyone to be on guard, a shadow flashed left and right from an ancient temple at the side and flew down at an unbelievable speed.
Then, the afterimage silently landed on the ground and reached out to pull out the Mo Sword that was stuck in the ground.
"Protect the general!"
Whoosh!
The soldiers who were guarding from afar rushed over at an extremely fast speed, making the surroundings impenetrable.
Everyone looked at the cold figure standing in front of the broken coffin as if they were facing a great enemy.
Yuchi Baoqing was similarly shocked.
Looking at the thin and weak figure holding the Mo Sword under the sun, he felt like he had met a powerful opponent.
It was Lin Che!
Today.
Lin Che originally wanted to investigate the name list of the Thousand Riders who had exterminated the entire Yunzhou.
However, they happened to encounter a large number of soldiers entering the temple to search.
He hid on the top of the ancient temple and watched quietly.
Coincidentally, they saw a large group of Thousand Bull Guards carrying a huge coffin over.
This was nothing.
But after hearing Yuchi Baoqing's words to the abbot of the monastery, Lin Che was filled with questions.
Master Ku Jing…Yesterday…Sacrifice for the country…
A monk was actually working for the imperial court?
