Behind the middle-aged Taoist priests, there were some young Taoist priests, who looked all red and had some foundations. The middle-aged Taoist priest in front of the Taoist temple looked at the burial procession in the distance, and immediately hurriedly greeted him, his steps were light, and the soles of his feet bounced up quickly as soon as they touched the ground.
"Madame...... Childe ......"
The Taoist priest bowed to Zhou Yihan and Lin Yu, who was also holding Lin Tian's spiritual seat, and looked at Zhou Yihan with tears on his face and said, "Madam, what you ordered, the poor Dao has been prepared, and now when the eldest prince's spirit card is in the master, you can open the altar to pray." ”
Zhou Yihan nodded, looked back at Lin Yu, who was calm, and said with a slight movement of his lips: "Yu'er, do you think you go in to do things for your brother, or will I go?"

Zhou Yihan groaned for a while, tidied up the filial piety clothes on Lin Yu's body, there was still a trace of tears on her face, and she commanded Lin Yu in a soft voice: "Yu'er, everything has passed, don't be too sad, compared to now, I still like you who were more mischievous before." ”
Lin Yu's body shook slightly, looking at Zhou Yihan's face, he smiled from the bottom of his heart, no matter what, he knew that there was always such a woman in this world who loved him enough, isn't it?
"Lin Gongzi, please ......"
The middle priest held the dust whisk in his hand and led the way for Lin Yu, who held the spiritual position in his hand and slowly entered the Taoist temple under his guidance.
