The joy of just learning the information about the child was instantly dashed by the bad news.
Yan Shouyi and Lin Zitong stood there as if struck by lightning, unable to calm down for a long time.
The Folklore Research Society defeated the Red Flower Society. The audience and some unknowing elders were still immersed in joy, but Yan Shouyi and others fell into endless sadness, which was incompatible with the atmosphere of the scene.
"Little dragon."
Yan Shou turned around and called Long Feicheng's name. Long Feicheng came back to his senses and responded quickly.
"I'll leave this to you and Lao Wang. Remember to take care of everyone. I... Zitong and I will go to the lotus pond to have a look." Yan Shouyi said in a low voice.
Thinking that the grumpy red-faced old man was dead, Long Feicheng, who was always scolded, felt empty in his heart. He opened his mouth to comfort him, but didn't know what to say, and finally nodded silently. Nodding, he turned around and ran towards Wang Ji.
Yan Shouyi took a deep breath, managed to calm down, and took Lin Zitong's hand: "Let's go."
"Yeah."
Lin Zitong agreed expressionlessly, but could not hide the turmoil in her heart.
The group quietly left the scene and headed to the lotus pond.
…
In the lotus pond, the lotus protecting the child was gently put back by Wen Yuxian. Then she looked at Lu Jing’s mummified body, holding back tears. I couldn't help but burst into tears.
"Mom, Shouyi and the others are here." Yan Chou reminded.
As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Shouyi and others walked quickly into the lotus pond. Their footsteps were a little chaotic, but as they approached, the rhythm became calmer and slowed down.
Lin Zitong saw Lu Jing’s body at a glance. She couldn’t help but cover her mouth, her eyes turning red.
Yan Shouyi felt as if something was stuck in his throat and his cheeks hurt.
"Dad, grandma...what happened?"
Yan Qiu salvaged the corpse of the vampire bat from the lotus pond and whispered:
< br /> "Twenty years ago, when I was traveling around the world, I met a monster who claimed to be the master of the Black Bat Village and was causing harm to the people. I captured him and destroyed his cultivation. Later, I allowed him to escape by chance. Unexpectedly, two people... Ten years later, he had planned for a long time, sneaked into the lotus pond, and wanted to cut off the bloodline of our Yan family..."
"I was in retreat at first, and suddenly felt palpitations, so I came over to check on the child's soul, but it happened to be I bumped into the leader of the Black Bat Village, so I took action to kill him, but... I was still a step too late, the leader of Lu Jing was already dead."
There was also an unconcealable emotion in Yan Chou's words. Blame yourself ifIf he could have come a little earlier and a step faster, maybe Lu Jing wouldn't have to die.
However, things have happened.
"It's all my fault...it's all my fault..."
Wen Yuxian blamed herself so much that she couldn't stop crying, and she didn't look like an elder at all.
For the death of Lu Jing, the entire responsibility lies with the leader of the black village. The reason why Wen Yuxian blames herself so much is because Lu Jing died to protect Yan Shouyi's child.
As a grandmother, she had no chance to repay the favor she owed Lu Jing.
Lin Zitong pursed her lips and stared at Lu Jing’s body for a long time.
Although Lu Jing was not her master, he was better than her master because during the period when Lu Jingsheng was missing, Lu Jing had been teaching Lin Zitong carefully.
It was he who established Lin Zitong as the successor to the head of the Lushan Sect; it was he who took Lin Zitong to Penglai to seek help from experts to stop the child's development; it was he who taught Lin Zitong how to be a good leader.
However, this grumpy old man was just about to retire from the world and enjoy a peaceful life, and he passed away without any precaution...
Suddenly, Lin Zitong walked towards the lotus pond.
Everyone thought Lin Zitong was going to visit Lu Jing, but in the end she walked to Wen Yuxian, hugged her gently, and comforted her:
" Grandma, it’s not your fault, it’s not your fault..."
Everyone saw this and suddenly felt very distressed.
Lin Zitong must have been heartbroken at this moment, but in order to alleviate Wen Yuxian's guilt, she had to endure the pain to comfort others.
Wen Yuxian also realized this meaning, and hugged Lin Zitong in turn: "He said that the child is also a descendant of the Lushan sect, and asked me to protect the child no matter what...it's useless for grandma, it's Grandma is useless..."
Lin Zitong's eyes were red and she tried hard not to shed tears. She tightly grasped the corner of her clothes with one hand.
"Dad, the soul of the leader of Lu Jing..." Yan Shouyi hesitated to speak.
Yan Chou sighed, shook his head and said: "After killing the leader of Lu Jing, the leader of the Black Bat Village tried to destroy his soul, but your grandma interrupted him. Now, although his soul It is still there, but it is not complete enough to stay in the earth."
The soul is incomplete and the consequence of staying in the earth is to dissipate slowly, which is the same as the ending of General Qingjiang and Princess Yushu .
Even if he is forced to stay in the world of the sun, given the extent of the damage to Lu Jing's soul, he will probably become a lonely ghost, no different from a living person like Wen Yuxian and Zhang Shantong.
The only good ending is to send Lu Jing's soul into reincarnation and use the power of reincarnation to repair it, but then Lu Jing will be reincarnated and leave everyone forever.
Knowing this result, Lin Zitong trembled again.
Yan Shouyi was silent for a long time.
Yan Qiu waved to Dog Taoist and others, indicating that they should leave the lotus pond first, and followed him out.
Lin Zitong let go of Wen Yuxian, and Wen Yuxian also left silently.
In the lotus pond, there were only Yan Shouyi and Lin Zitong, the souls of their unborn children, and Lu Jing's body.
Lin Zitong walked slowly towards Lujing, passing the central lotus on the way, and her face improved slightly when she saw that the soul in the lotus was intact.
She came to Lu Jing’s side and silently packed up his body.
Yan Shouyi hurriedly stepped forward to help.
"Uncle Lu Jingshi and my master are different. Master thinks too much and has too many things on his mind, but Uncle Lu Jing only has Lushan Sect in his heart. So when master is the leader, Lu Jingshi Uncle often disagrees with him."
"When Tong Jingcheng did bad things in Rongcheng, we once suspected that the mastermind behind the scenes was Uncle Lu Jing. Now that we think about it, I feel really ashamed and guilty."
"Uncle Lu Jing was taking care of me during the time before you went to Longhu Mountain. He taught me a lot and made me understand how to be the leader of the Lushan Sect."
"Now that I have finally become the head of the Lushan Sect, my child will be born soon. Uncle Lujing, who has no offspring, suddenly passed away at this time..."
Lin Zitong As he spoke, tears finally fell uncontrollably.
“His life is so miserable.” Lin Zitong fell into Lu Jing’s arms and burst into tears.
If Lu Jing was still alive, this grumpy old man would definitely point at Lin Zitong’s nose and yell, saying how could she shed tears as the leader of a sect? How decent.
But he no longer has the opportunity to curse.
Lin Zitong never had the chance to be scolded again.
The former head of the Lushan Sect, the red-faced old man who liked to curse, is no longer here.
