Chapter 216 Just Abandon Wanqingling



Chapter 216 Just Abandon Wanqingling

The next morning, Yang Qing saw Nie Youjiu waiting for him at the gate of Yeyousi.

"Come on, let's go have a meal first, and then I'll take you somewhere to play.

By the way, this is for you. "

After saying that, Nie Youjiu threw two first-level filthy beads to Yang Qing.

"I borrowed a hundred taels of silver from you last night. With the money in hand, it seems that my luck has changed. Last night, I was able to catch two evil spirits.

These two filthy beads are my repayment for the banknotes I borrowed from you last night."

Although I don’t know the prices in Jinguan City, the two evil beads must be worth more than one hundred taels.

Yang Qing didn't care about the price difference and just put the money in his pocket.

He knew that Nie Youjiu was short of money, but after he completed the task assigned to him by Old Man Nie, he would leave some resources for Nie Youjiu when he left Jinguan City.

Afterwards, Yang Qing was taken by Nie Youjiu to a pretty good restaurant. It seemed that he was planning to drink early in the morning.

Yang Qing followed the host's wishes. During the meal, through chatting, Yang Qing learned that the Nie family had already declined and apart from him, there was only a niece left.

Even that niece's surname wasn't Nie. She was born to his younger brother Nie Yourou after he married into the Luo family.

And his younger brother was ambushed by evil spirits while patrolling outside the city last year and died during the mission.

After some toasts, Yang Qing told Nie Youjiu the purpose of his visit in detail.

Their elder Nie Wujiu was his master. Before he died, he entrusted him with a jade slip to return to the Nie family.

In addition, he also brought back his master's bones, intending to bury them in the Nie family's ancestral tomb so that his master could return to his roots.

"Give the jade slip to my niece. I am good at fighting with soul soldiers. As for the Taoist hand seals, I haven't figured out the two moves I know yet, so I won't waste time on them.

I'll ask her out later and you can talk to her yourself."

After two glasses of white wine, Nie Youjiu's cheeks turned red, his expression was lazy and casual, and he didn't care about the jade slip at all.

“As for what you said about sending my elder back to the ancestral tomb, this may be a bit difficult to do.

To be honest, my Nie family has an ancestral precept that requires all descendants of the Nie family to die in battle.

Those who cannot be buried in the Martyrs' Shrine after death will be abandoned in a mass grave.

Haha, now you know why there are so few people in my Nie family. "

Nie Youjiu said this with a hint of wry smile in his tone, then he raised his glass and drank it all.

This was because all his parents, uncles and other relatives had died in battle when he was young, and no one around him had ever told him the story of Nie Wujiu.

If he knew that the bones sent back by Yang Qing were the reason why his Nie family had this abominable ancestral precept, I wonder how he would feel.

After coming out of the restaurant, Nie Youjiu took Yang Qing to find Luo Qingfu.

Luo Qingfu is sixteen years old this year. She is also a cultivator. She is a cultivator of the Lihuo Shuzi Sect in Jinguan City.

The Lihuoshu sect excels in fire-related Taoism and is quite famous in Jinguan City.

The head of the Luo family, Luo Bingyi, is one of the elders of the Lihuo Shu sect and also Luo Qingfu's grandfather.

The entire Luo family can barely be considered a small family in Jinguan City.

If not for this, Nie Youjiu's younger brother Nie Yourou would not have married into the Luo family in order to be with Luo Qingfu's mother.

This is quite rare in Sichuan, where people attach great importance to face.

Having said that, Nie Youjiu's father was also a free and easy man back then.

He believed that having wine and meat was the ultimate in life, so he named his two children "Wine and Meat".

And these two younger generations seemed to have inherited this free and easy spirit. One did not care about reputation and married into the Luo family for love, while the other was addicted to wine and gambling. Although he was a cultivator, his life was worse than that of ordinary people, yet he was still content.

In a small teahouse in Tianshui Lane, Yang Qing recounted his purpose to Luo Qingfu and took out the jade slip that Old Man Nie had given him.

This jade slip records some of Old Man Nie's life-long insights into Taoist hand seals, as well as several Taoist hand seals including thunder magic.

If this jade slip were placed outside, it would definitely be a priceless manual of cultivation.

Before taking it out, Yang Qing made a copy, and the one given to Luo Qingfu was the original copy that Old Man Nie had given her.

However, Luo Qingfu was not as confused as Nie Youjiu. When she heard that the person who was entrusted to return the jade slip was named Nie Wujiu, she immediately retracted her hand. At the same time, her face became extremely cold and she said.

“I’m sorry, you said that this person has been expelled from the family tree and is no longer a member of the Nie family.

So, although this thing is good, I don’t want it if it’s not from my Nie family. Please take it back.

In addition, you don't have to worry about burying this person's remains in the Nie family's ancestral tomb.

The Nie family's ancestral tomb is in the Martyrs' Shrine, and the person you entrusted is not qualified to enter.

But there is a barren mountain in the north of our city, called Wanqingling. I think you should just abandon the man’s bones there.”

"Qing Fu, what nonsense are you talking about! There is a mass grave on Wanqing Ridge."

Hearing Luo Qingfu say this, Nie Youjiu was stunned, then stopped her sternly.

Luo Qingfu was not to be outdone. She turned around and angrily said to Nie Youjiu, "Uncle, you probably don't know who Nie Wujiu is, right? The ancestral precepts of your Nie family that force all descendants to be buried in the Martyrs' Shrine are all thanks to this person.

A cowardly person who fled from the battlefield, where else do you want him to be buried if not in a mass grave? Do you really want him to be buried in the Martyrs' Shrine in Jinguan City?

You have no shame, but there are nearly ten million people in Jinguan City who still have some shame."

After saying that, Luo Qingfu slammed the table, turned around and left.

"Brother Yang, I'm really sorry. I'm a Sichuanese woman and I tend to be a little impatient, but I'm not a bad person by nature."

Upon seeing this, Nie Youjiu hurriedly stood up to apologize, then chased after Luo Qingfu.

However, Luo Qingfu's words just now made Yang Qing make a decision.

About half an incense stick of time later, Nie Youjiu came back with a gloomy look on his face.

I think during this time, Luo Qingfu should have told Nie Youjiu about Nie Wujiu's life.

"Brother Yang, I'm sorry for the delay." A trace of embarrassment appeared on Nie Youjiu's face.

"It's okay. I was a little abrupt."

After all, my cheap master must have had some shameful past here, but I just don't know it.

Afterwards, the two chatted for a while, and Nie Youjiu told Yang Qing the reason why Nie Wujiu left a bad reputation in Jinguan City.

Yang Qing also narrated to Nie Youjiu the old man Nie's past in Hengzhou Prefecture and the highlight moment in the final battle to defend the city.

At the end, when he talked about how Nie Wujiu turned into thunder alone and destroyed a sect of evil spirits, sacrificing himself to buy time for the city defense, a hint of excitement appeared on Nie Youjiu's face.

At this moment, the elder who was said to have brought shame and decline to his family seemed to make Nie Youjiu feel a little proud.

"Brother Yang, you wouldn't deliberately make up a story to deceive me just to make your master's reputation sound better, would you?"

Nie Youjiu came to his senses and asked.

“How could that be? My master used the Thunder Ancestor Seal at the last moment to stimulate his own potential, and then he forcibly used the Supreme Thunder Method Tiangang Seal, and his body turned into thunder.

This time I brought back the skeleton of my master. After being tempered by thunder, the skeleton is as bright as jade. This cannot deceive anyone."

"Okay! The prodigal son has returned, so I, Nie Youjiu, will recognize this elder.

Brother Yang, wait for me for a while. I will find a gambling house to bet on him a few times. After I win more money, we will find a cemetery with good feng shui around Jinguan City. I want to give my elder a grand funeral. "

After a few words, Nie Youjiu seemed to have aroused his interest again, but in Yang Qing's opinion, this idea was really not very reasonable.

"Brother Nie, if I want to send my master's remains to the Martyrs' Shrine, is there any feasible method?

I feel that my master's actions before his death, sacrificing himself to defend the city, are worthy of being included in the Martyrs' Shrine.

Besides, isn’t the Nie family’s ancestral tomb in the Martyrs’ Shrine? Only by entering the Martyrs’ Shrine can we fulfill my master’s last wish.”

As soon as these words were spoken, Nie Youjiu's expression froze.

“Enter the Martyrs’ Shrine!!!

Brother Yang, do you really want to slap the faces of nearly 10 million people in Jinguan City?"
