"Don't hold back, it might be better to cry." I said with trepidation.

"Go away." Lu Xiaoling said expressionlessly.

"Xiaoling...... "Her appearance makes me unbearable, but I don't know what to say, and I don't know what qualifications I have to stand here."

If it weren't for the fact that I didn't look favorably on that person...... If it weren't for saving me......

Although Master Cao repeatedly told me that everything had nothing to do with me, and repeatedly told me that this was the path and destination that Lu Lou, a yin-yang magician, had chosen by himself, in fact, he had already expected that he would have such an ending, but I still had no way to accept this.

Five thunders thundered to the top, all the forms and gods were destroyed, and the soul was scattered, such an encounter should not belong to an elder like Master Lu.

"Shall we bow to the Master?" Boss Xie proposed.

He tried to make a gesture of grief and regret, but he couldn't hide the joy in his heart.

This is already the seventh day after the incident.

The monster is destroyed, and the project can resume normally.

The most important thing is that after a special investigation team was formed by the Yuanshan City Government and the Wengen County Government to investigate the incident, the incident was positioned as a natural disaster, which means that he does not need to bear any responsibility, and all costs and losses incurred during the suspension and resumption of work will be borne by the construction party.

And the fact that Su Cha and his party all disappeared was wiped out in this way, and he didn't even need to pay the previously agreed remuneration, nor did he have to be contaminated with such a terrifying existence as the head descender.

For him, this may not have been the best outcome.

But for those of us who went through the whole thing, it was the infuriating part.

No one from the two prefectures even attended the ceremony, but arranged for the township chief and the director of the township office to come and offer condolences.

Lu Xiaoling closed her eyes and didn't have a little expression.

From Master Cao, I know that her parents died when she was a child, and it was Master Lu who brought her up, and to some extent, Master Lu is her only relative, and at the same time her adoptive father and her master.

I can't imagine the pain in her heart, but I know that she is not acting normally.

"If you ......," I clumsily tried to comfort her again, but she shoved me hard.

"You go away!" She gritted her teeth tightly. "Go away!"

Tears swirled in her eyes, but she stubbornly refused to shed them.

"Let's go over there first." Master Cao sighed beside him and let us all leave.

We stood more than ten meters away, watched her stand alone on the edge of the pit, and finally crouched down.

"Boss, what's crazy about this woman? She's happy, when can we do it? A foreman came over and whispered. If you don't do it, you won't be able to finish it today. ”

The big pit is nearly five meters deep, you can't just let it be left like this, the township asked Boss Xie to find someone to fill it in, these workers were recruited by Boss Xie from other places in the past few days, they don't know Master Lu, and they don't know what happened in this place.

His words made me suddenly angry.

"What did you say?" I walked over and gave him a hard push.

"You're sick, aren't you?" He looked at me in surprise and grabbed my sleeve back.

"You're sick!" I threw a punch at it.

In fact, the person I really want to fight is Boss Xie, myself, but I can't find a reason or an excuse.

It was like there was a fire burning in my heart, and if I didn't do something to vent it, I would go crazy.

People came over to separate us, and I took the opportunity to stomp Boss Xie a few times, and he fell to the ground staring at me ugly, as if to consider whether I was unintentional or deliberate.

"Let's go." Lu Xiaoling suddenly walked over.

There was still no expression on her face, everyone was stunned, and then they each started to do their own things.

We walked along the mountain road back to the project department together, and then took the car back to the distant mountains together.

Boss Xie pretended to say that as long as I am willing, the company will always welcome me back, I looked at him coldly and didn't say a word.

On the way back to the distant mountain, I kept looking at Lu Xiaoling, she had been resting with her eyes closed, but I knew that she was not asleep.

She looked tired, and I don't know how the days of her bad news passed, but I can guess that she must have been in pain.

"If there's anything I can do, please let me know." I said to her when I got out of the car, but she still had her eyes closed and didn't say anything.

"I'm supposed to stay in the mountains for a while." Master Cao said. "If you have anything, call or come to the Zhouyi Research Association to find me."

I nodded, but my eyes kept looking at Lu Xiaoling.

My parents were a little surprised that I quit my job and went home, but I told them that there had been an accident on the construction site and they didn't say anything.

"Anyway, we all have a salary, and there is no shortage of money in the family." Mom babbled. "You take a break for a while, and it's okay to look for a job when you're in a better mood!"

I locked myself in my room, with the four books that Master Lu had given me on one side, and my own rune books on the other.

If I give this rune book to Master Lu for study, with his skills, will he be able to find a better solution?

I can't help but think like this.

He pushed me away, his teeth piercing his body, and the feeling of blood spraying on my face always haunted me, like a ghost.

I have to do something.

I said to myself.

I had to do something.

On the morning of the third day, I suddenly had an unfamiliar number calling me.

"Is it Mr. Sun Yang?" A strange man asked on the phone.

"You are?"

"I am lawyer Wang Kai from Yuanshan Zhenyuan Law Firm, and we are going to open Mr. Lu Lou's will at two o'clock this afternoon, according to his last wishes, you should be one of the beneficiaries of the will. Do you have time to be there? ”

I was stunned for a moment, then replied, "I have time." ”

The other party told me the detailed address and contact information of the law firm, reminding me that I must bring my ID card, I was full of doubts, and hurriedly had lunch and rode over.

Before the others arrived, an assistant took me to the small conference room, gave me a cup of tea and left, I looked at the scenery outside the window, and guessed what Master Lu had left for me.

If we only look at the time we have known each other and the understanding of each other, we can only be regarded as strangers, and in the short time we have known each other, we are either looking for monsters or fighting monsters.

I don't even know what he's done, I don't know what kind of stories he's had.

On the contrary, Master Cao and I are much more familiar with each other, but we both know very well that although he led me to the path of cultivation, we are not masters and apprentices, but can only be regarded as partners who have experienced life and death together.

There is also a mystery about his past, and perhaps cultivators are reluctant to talk about their past, let alone speculate about their future.

There was a sudden commotion outside the door, and after a while, Master Cao and Lu Xiaoling walked in, and the old man on the first floor of the Zhou Yi Research Society followed behind them.

"The beneficiaries of the will have arrived." A man in his thirties walked in. "I'm Mr. Lu Lou's lawyer Wang Kai, everyone, let's get started, shall we?"

There were no objections.

"Please give me all your ID cards." Wang Kai said. Verified and handed over to the assistant for copying and then returned to us.

He took a sealed document bag from his handbag, examined it for us, and opened it in front of us.

"There is a letter in it, which is written for Miss Lu Xiaoling." Wang Kai first checked the contents inside. "And then there's the will."

He handed the letter to Lu Xiaoling, the letter was not sealed, she immediately opened it and read it, and tears quickly welled up.

My heart is very uncomfortable, and Master Cao looks the same.

Wang Kai handed Lu Xiaoling a pack of tissues, but she shook her head and put down the letter.

"I'll start reading the will now." Wang Kai then said.

I've never experienced anything like it, and for me, everything is as illusory and unreal as a dream.

Master Lu has a lot of property in his name, several properties and shops, cash and securities, which are worth tens of millions of dollars, all of which were left to Lu Xiaoling.

The real estate of the Huizhenguan Lu Clan's Zhouyi Research Association was left to the old man named Yuan Zhen.

All his magic artifacts (antiques written in the will, but we all know what they are) were given to Master Cao, and it was up to him to decide what to do with them.

To my astonishment, he left me all the scriptures (both ancient books and manuscripts written in his will).

"Whether to accept it or not is up to Sun Yang to decide. If he is not willing to accept it, then all the ancient books and manuscripts will be handed over to Cao Daoping for safekeeping, and he will choose who to hand them over. I only have one request, my niece Lu Xiaoling is not able to accept anything related to the Zhou Yi Research Society, and I also ask Cao Daoping, Yuan Zhen and Sun Yang to respect my last wishes and not to hand over anything related to the Zhou Yi Research to her. ”

After Wang Kai finished reading the will, the three of us couldn't help but look at Lu Xiaoling, but her expression was very calm, it should have been said in the previous letter that he had already said the reason for doing this.

"Mr. Sun Yang, have you decided to accept Mr. Lu Lou's gift?" Wang Kai asked.

All eyes were on me, and it made me feel like I was on pins and needles.

"Can you give me some time?" My mind was in a mess, so I said.

"Okay, then let's rest for a while." Lawyer Wang Kai said.

"Master Cao, Master Lu, what do you mean by this?" I asked as I pulled Master Cao aside alone.

"He wants you to take over his legacy and accept his mantle." Master Cao replied.

"Why?" What I can't understand is this.

"I don't know." Master Cao shook his head. "Maybe he thinks you're the best fit."

"Should I accept it?" I asked again.

"You should ask yourself about this." Master Cao said. But you should understand that what he gave you is not only those scriptures, nor just the Tao, but also his way of doing things, which is also part of the Tao. If you decide to accept it, then you have to go down that path. ”

But I don't even know anything about his life, how do I get there?

"Since he gave you those books, there will be answers in them." Master Cao replied meaningfully.

"Mr. Sun Yang, after careful consideration, have you decided to accept Mr. Lu Lou's gift?" Wang Kai asked again.

I nodded. "I do."

Lu Xiaoling's expression seemed to be a little surprised, while Master Cao nodded with satisfaction.

What will happen in the future, I don't know.

But I knew that from this moment on, I would no longer be the ordinary person named Sun Yang.

I am now a Celestial Master.

Although, I am still far, far away from the true Heavenly Master.
