When he arrived at the room where Li Mochou's body was placed last night, Yin Zhiping saw that the door was closed, and there was a Guanzhong disciple guarding outside, and the coffin he bought was placed outside the door. When the Guanzhong disciple saw him coming, he also hurriedly stepped forward to pay respects.

Yin Zhiping told him not to be polite, and after asking, he learned that there were two women in Lu Dao who were tidying up Li Mochou's remains and changing his life clothes, so the door was closed.

As he was talking, he heard a knock on the door and opened it from the inside, and two women of about forty years of age came out with a package each, and then saluted the disciple who was waiting outside the door, saying that he had packed up and changed his clothes.

When Yin Zhiping heard this, he walked in first, and the two Guanzhong disciples and the two women followed.

There were two tables in the room side by side, and Li Mochou's body was placed on them. Yin Zhiping walked into the room and took a look, but saw that the blood stains on Li Mochou's face and hands had been wiped clean, and the original bloody clothes had also been removed, and he had changed into a clean and bright clothes. Her hair was also re-combed, and even some rouge was rubbed on her face, and her blood-lost lips were repainted red, so that she looked as if she was asleep at this time, and she did not have the terrifying look of being pale and gray after death.

"A few Daoists have seen that they are still tidy?" one of the two women asked.

Yin Zhiping nodded when he heard this. When the disciple who was guarding the door saw that he was satisfied, he took the money from his bosom and paid it to the two women, and then sent them away.

Soon after the three of them left, they heard footsteps, and several more people entered the room. Yin Zhiping just looked down at Li Mochou, who seemed to be asleep, and didn't turn his head to see who walked in. Until Li Zhichang's voice sounded. opened his mouth to call him "Senior Brother Yin", and then he turned his head. But I saw that Li Zhichang and the master of this Longqing Temple came together.

Yin Zhiping glanced at Li Zhichang and nodded to him. Then he turned back to look at Li Mochou.

Li Zhichang also knew Li Mochou, and he was also in the palace on the day when Yin Zhiping captured Li Mochou and brought him back to Zhongnan Mountain and brought him into Chongyang Palace. He had already received the "handwritten letter" written by Li Mochou imitating Yin Zhiping's handwriting, and he originally didn't believe the content of the letter, but at this time, seeing Yin Zhiping's demeanor looking at Li Mochou's corpse, he couldn't help but believe it.

The matter in the letter is naturally not easy to publicize in a big way, and the first time he received the letter, he first kept the matter a secret, so that the two people who read the letter kept their mouths shut. Do not spread the word of the letter. Then it is to leave some time to wait, and see if Yin Zhiping will come back in a few days. But it was roughly right with Yin Zhiping's guess of his response.

"Senior Brother Yin, whether it is martial arts or Taoism, or acting as a person, is extremely admirable, and some people in the rivers and lakes have praised him as the second Chongyang Patriarch I taught, how can he not break the word 'love' and violate the great precepts in the teaching?

Li Zhichang sighed in his heart. He turned around and whispered to the master of Longqingguan, and asked him to take everyone out of the city. After seeing them leave, he stepped forward and stood side by side with Yin Zhiping. Looking at Li Mochou's corpse on the table, he asked, "Is this Li Mochou of the Ancient Tomb Sect?"

Yin Zhiping nodded when he heard this, and asked, "You must have received that letter?"

Li Zhichang nodded and said, "Yes." I received that letter the day before yesterday. But I did not believe what was said in the letter. ”

Yin Zhiping said: "I didn't write that letter. Rather, she imitated my handwriting and wrote. ”

Li Zhichang was taken aback when he heard this, and then breathed a sigh of relief. Since the letter was imitated and forged by Li Mochou, it must be that the things in the letter must not be true, but he made a false alarm. It's just that this breath hasn't been relieved yet, but I heard Yin Zhiping continue: "But what was said in the letter is true, I did have a personal relationship with her, and I did plan to break away from the Quanzhen Sect and return to the rivers and lakes with her." ”

Li Zhichang put his mind at ease, and when he heard the words, he raised it again, and couldn't help but say, "Senior brother, you are so confused!"

Yin Zhiping sighed and said lonely: "Yes, I'm quite confused, I think a lot of things are too simple." ”

From the very beginning, he looked at this world too casually, and many times and many things were in the mindset of playing games. Even from the very beginning, Li Mochou had this mentality. He thought he knew this world very well, and he also knew many things in this world world, and even many hidden secrets. This made him take it for granted that as long as he wanted to, he could control everything in this world. But in fact, this is not the case, and many things have changed beyond his control. He is just a person with limited abilities, not a god, and this world is not a game that can be manipulated by him at will.

By now, after going through so much, he finally recognized his mentality and realized his mistakes. And many of the mistakes he had made were irreparable. So far, he really feels that he has failed enough. After a very irresponsible and chic life, now there is only emptiness and loneliness.

"What the hell happened, and why did Miss Li end up like this?" Li Zhichang paused and then asked.

"The two of us had some conflicts, she restrained me, and wanted to force me to leave the Quanzhen Sect in advance and retire with her. When we were about to arrive in Lin'an, we happened to bump into Zhao Zhijing, and he died under Zhao Zhijing's sword in order to save me. ”

Yin Zhiping only briefly described it, and there are still many discrepancies between the second half and the facts, but it is roughly the same. First, he was really not in the mood to talk to Li Zhichang carefully at this time, and second, he was repeatedly restrained by Li Mochou and suffered the details of Li Mochou's torture, and he didn't want others to know the truth. Although there are concealments and discrepancies, they are similar to the facts.

"Zhao Zhijing!?" Li Zhichang couldn't help but exclaim when he heard this, "Wasn't he escorted to Zhongnan Mountain, did he escape halfway?"

Yin Zhiping nodded and said, "That's right, he escaped halfway, and then came back to seek revenge on me." It's a pity that I was restrained by the acupuncture points at that time, otherwise how could this be? But Mo Chou fought back before he died, not only cut off his right arm with elbows, but also seriously injured him in the palm, presumably he couldn't run far, you send more disciples to search in the northeast direction. We met him yesterday in that direction, about five or six miles from the city, and the bloodstains and footprints he left behind along the way are still there. ”

This matter is important, and after Li Zhichang heard it, he no longer stayed to ask more questions, and immediately went out to give orders.

Yin Zhiping looked down at Li Mochou for a while, then bent down to pick her up, then carried her out of the room and placed it in the coffin that had already been bought and prepared. Then he looked at her for a while before closing the coffin lid with his own hands.

The next step is to set up the mourning hall and conduct the meeting. Now that he is in the Taoist temple, it is also very convenient, and he doesn't need to bother other other families, so he asked the disciples in the temple to do a few days of Dharma meetings and chant scriptures for Li Mochou. Yin Zhiping not only kept vigil for days, but also took the lead in reciting scriptures for Li Mochou at the festival. Seven days after the spirit stopped, he chose a feng shui treasure outside the city to be buried.

On the day of the burial, it was still the disciples of Longqingguan who also served as the funeral procession, and even the drummers did not bother other other families, they were all responsible for it. Yin Zhiping didn't want to make this matter bigger, and Li Zhichang didn't want to make it known to everyone in the world after knowing the true relationship between him and Li Mochou, so from the practice of keeping spirits to the burial of the queen, it was just a group of disciples of Longqingguan who were supporting, and they did not expand the scale to alarm other sub-views.

After the burial, the tombstone in front of the tomb was empty, and there was not half an inscription. The disciples of Longqingguan only thought that it was the first one in their own house and did not know the name of the girl buried in the road, so they made an empty tombstone. But I didn't know that this was specially instructed by Li Zhichang to leave it until the most difficult time and decide what words to engrave for Yin Zhiping himself.

After sending away all the disciples who sent them to the funeral, Li Zhichang persuaded Yin Zhiping: "Senior brother, the content of that letter now, apart from you and me, is only Senior Brother Wei of Tianning Guan and that Silent Daoist Zhilu Dao, I have strictly ordered them to keep their mouths shut and not tell anyone." We can hide the matter between you and Miss Li, so why do you have to do this? If you really engrave the relationship between the two of you on the tombstone, if you are seen by those who care about it and spread to all the rivers and lakes, then your future will be ruined and your reputation will be ruined! Senior brother, please think twice before acting. ”

Yin Zhiping shook his head slowly when he heard this: "Senior brother, you don't have to persuade me, I have made up my mind." I have been privately engaged with her for life, and although there have been some conflicts since then, which is almost a turn against each other, I have never written a letter of resignation to her. She died to save me after she reached the end of her life, how could I let her be so nameless and lifeless after she died?" he sighed, looked up at the sky and said, "What if you are ruined and your future ruined? ”

As soon as the words fell, he "choked" and then pulled out his sword from the sheath, and the sword light flickered, and engraved on the tombstone the seven big characters of "The Tomb of His Beloved Wife Li Mochou" and the five small characters of "Husband Yin Zhi Pingli".

After Li Zhichang looked at the words engraved on the tombstone, he couldn't help but sigh with some regret. Suddenly, he saw that Yin Zhiping's "Zhi" was not the "Zhi" used in the ranking of the three generations of disciples of the Quanzhen School, and he couldn't help but "Huh", just wanted to remind Yin Zhiping that he had made a mistake, and suddenly said with a smile on his face: "Senior brother is really ingenious, and he replaced the word 'Zhi' with this fake word 'Zhi'." Reading the same, but not identical, can be used to distinguish when the time comes. ”

Yin Zhiping was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then he realized that Li Zhichang had misunderstood what he meant, and couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly: "That's my real name." ”

"Real name?" Li Zhichang was stunned when he heard this, and sighed: "Is the name of the senior brother and the common family called 'Zhiping', what a coincidence!"

After the disciples of the Quanzhen faction entered the school, they were all given new Dharma names by the teacher, and the original lay names were discarded. Therefore, everyone knows the name of the Dharma among the same family, and few people know the name of the other party's common family. What's more, Yin Zhiping first got started, and when Li Zhichang got started, he only knew his legal name, let alone his common name, and he never inquired.

"Let's go. Yin Zhiping nodded, didn't explain much, said a word, and turned away.

Li Zhichang turned around and followed. (To be continued......)
