Chapter 30: The Return of the Soul
Ye Tongxuan was injured and his speed was a lot slower, and after a day of hurrying, he finally rushed back to Ye's house.
Ye Yongzhang and the others were relieved to know that Ye Tongxuan came back alive. Let him recuperate with peace of mind, and they will arrange the follow-up matters.
The Ye family also learned the news of the loss of Jiutai Mountain, and learned the news that Ye Shoujing died in battle.
The reinforcements sent by Ye Shoushan to Jiutai Mountain were empty, and when they arrived there, Wei Laodao and the others had already fled, leaving Jiutai Mountain in a mess.
Shi Xiong and others searched around the neighborhood and buried the Ye family monks who died in battle.
They also temporarily stationed in Jiutai Mountain to do some aftermath work.
Ye Yongzhang and others secretly recalled Ye Shoushan, who was outside, overnight to discuss the follow-up of this matter.
They can't just let go of these loose cultivators, they must make an example of the chickens and monkeys, and create enough deterrence.
After about a week of recovery, Ye Tongxuan's injuries were much better.
Although he did not fully recover, he still had no problem walking normally.
Today is the day when Ye Shoujing and others are buried, and he doesn't want to miss the last journey of farewell.
Ye Tongxuan struggled to the mountain behind the family, where the Ye family was responsible for burying the monks who died in battle.
This back mountain is behind Yunling Peak, the altitude is not high, and the ancestor of the Ye family named it Soul Return Mountain.
Since the establishment of the Ye family, all the dead monks have been buried here.
Although it was already noon, the sky was covered in dark clouds and gray.
Soon, a light rain fell like a filament.
This burial, presided over by Ye Yongzhang himself, is enough to show the importance of the Ye family.
The monks of the Ye family who were buried this time were all killed in the battle of Jiutai Mountain, and there were some monks who were separated in the war, and the Ye family is currently concluded to be missing.
Under the leadership of Ye Yongzhang, the head of the Ye family, the group carried the coffin and slowly walked up to the Soul Return Mountain.
Along the way, everyone's mood was very heavy, and the sound of drizzling rain and the intermittent sobbing of the widows of the monks who died in battle.
Halfway up the mountain, everyone stopped, and the location of the cemetery had been chosen, just halfway up the mountain.
Although the soul returns to the mountain, over the years since the establishment of the Ye family, many Ye family monks have also been killed in battle.
As far as the eye can see, from the top of the mountain to the halfway up the mountain, there are no less than 100 tombstones erected densely.
Ye Tongxuan only felt a shock coming, the family can have today, it is all these predecessors who have exchanged their lives and blood step by step.
"Everyone, be quiet." Ye Yongzhang said. Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at the patriarch Ye Yongzhang.
Ye Yongzhang's hair was gray, and because of the existence of old injuries on his body, his body became a little rickety.
"Shoujing, Shouzheng, and Shouyun are all dying for the family. They will always be remembered by the family. Now the family is in a difficult time, and it is with their dedication that they can ensure that the family continues to move forward.
The deceased is gone, and the living mourn for a long time. We should work hard to develop the family and not let the blood of Shoujing and others be shed in vain! ”
Although Ye Yongzhang is old, his voice is very clear. His voice was transmitted to every Ye family monk present.
The people who were originally a little depressed were encouraged by Ye Yongzhang's words, and their eyes revealed a trace of firmness.
"Buried!" Seeing that it was not early, Ye Yongzhang commanded.
In Ye Shoujing's coffin, there was no corpse, only the clothes he usually wore. His body was eaten by bloodthirsty bees, leaving only his head, which was taken back by Wei Laodao as a vote.
Everyone put the coffin in place and picked up shovels to fill the earth. At this time, Ye Shoujing's widow Wang, who had been suppressed, finally couldn't hold back and cried bitterly.
With her taking the lead, the families of the other monks who died in the war also cried loudly. The children of the monks who died in the war were still young and ignorant, and they didn't know why these adults were crying bitterly.
Some of the nuns in the family were comforted by the widows, while the other monks were shoveling in the soil.
After about half an hour, Ye Shoujing's coffin was buried.
Ye Yongzhang took the lead in putting three pillars of incense on their current electricity and bowed deeply.
After that, Ye Tongxuan stepped forward alone and bowed to Ye Shoujing three times alone to show his gratitude to Ye Shoujing.
...
After Ye Shoujing was buried, Ye Tongxuan found a time to visit the Wang family.
"Auntie, Tongxuan has come to see you." Ye Tongxuan shouted at the door of the house.
"It's Tongxuan here, fast forward, fast forward." Wang walked out of the doorway.
After not seeing him for a few days, Wang was even more haggard, there was not even any blood on his face, and the whole person gave people a feeling of weakness.
Ye Shoujing and the Wang family have always been very affectionate, although the Wang family is not a monk, Ye Shoujing also takes care of her in every way.
Now that Ye Shoujing has died in battle, the Wang family can't accept it for a while.
"Auntie's Day mourns. When Uncle Thirteen was leaving, Uncle Thirteen asked me to bring back this storage bag. Ye Tongxuan said, taking out the storage bag that Ye Shoujing gave him at the beginning.
Wang was touched by the scene, and when he saw this storage bag, he immediately couldn't help whimpering
Ye Tongxuan sat aside, not knowing how to persuade him.
After a while, Wang finally stopped whimpering, "Seeing things and thinking about feelings, I didn't hold back for a while, don't be surprised." ”
Wang's voice was a little hoarse, obviously he had been crying for a long time, his eyes were red, and his tears were shining again and again.
"Uncle Thirteen is leaving, hoping that I will let Weiwei enter the path. The contents are the resources for Wei Wei's cultivation in the future. Ye Tongxuan said.
Ye Shoujing's daughter, Ye Qingwei, is only six years old now, and it happened to be almost the time to test the spiritual root.
Wang nodded, "Then follow his arrangement." ”
Then, she stopped talking and said, "Auntie, please ask you something." ”
"Auntie, but it doesn't hurt to say it." Ye Tongxuan said busily.
"If Weiwei embarks on the road in the future, I hope to give more guidance to Xuan."
"Auntie, don't worry, if Weiwei has a spiritual root, don't say it's me, and the family will also focus on cultivating. The nephew will definitely give Vivi more guidance in the future. Ye Tongxuan assured.
With Ye Tongxuan's assurance, the Wang family was relieved.
"Vivi is still asleep in the house, you can see her again after she finishes measuring the spiritual root." Wang said.
Ye Tongxuan didn't stay long, got up and said, "That nephew retires." ”
With that, he left the place.
Back in his cave, Ye Tongxuan was full of emotion. After encountering Jiutai Mountain, Ye Tongxuan felt the importance of strength even more.
Although he is a traverser, he is able to lead the monks here in some things.
But if there is no strong strength as a backing, it is just rootless duckweed, and it can't help the wind and waves.
Therefore, now he needs to improve his quality quickly. Not only that, but also buy some self-defense magic weapons.
After this incident, he also understood the importance of magic weapons. It just so happened that he had a spirit stone in his hand, which could be used to purchase the losses caused by this war.
