Mr. Lin and Mr. Gu are sworn enemies. In the past few years, he has been keeping a close eye on the Gu Mansion because of business matters. Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu thought that they had done it perfectly, but Mr. Lin still knew everything about what happened twenty years ago.
It can be said that Mr. Lin is the only outsider who knows the truth.
It has been so long since the incident happened that Mr. Lin almost forgot about it. If he had not met Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu at the Fo'an Temple today, this matter would probably have been buried in his heart forever.
When Mr. Lin told the truth, Mr. Gu was stunned and speechless. Mrs. Gu was also stunned for a moment, but she quickly reacted.
Now she was determined to take Luochen away to save Gu Yunchuan, and she didn't care at all about the strange looks from the people around her.
To abandon one's own flesh and blood just because of a few words from others is worse than an animal! !
"Liaochen, you..."
"That's enough! Isn't this embarrassing enough?!"
Mrs. Gu was about to force Chen to go back with her, but Mr. Gu interrupted her with a sullen face.
She could shamelessly ignore the strange looks from others, but he, Gu Chengyin, couldn't do it!
After confirming that all this was a conspiracy by Taoist Qingshan, Mr. Gu no longer had any ideas about Chen. He walked up to Mrs. Gu and grabbed her arm.
"Stop embarrassing yourself here and come home with me!"
"Master, but Chuan'er..."
"Shut up! Don't you understand now? This is all a conspiracy by that stinky Taoist priest. We've all been deceived by him! I'm warning you, Gu Qinghe, you must come back with me right now. If you don't mind my shame, I still have my dignity!"
Mr. Gu leaned over to Mrs. Gu and scolded her in a low voice.
After he finished speaking, he angrily shouted at the guards from the Gu Mansion who had brought them here on horseback: "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and help the lady get up and go back to the mansion!"
The two guards nodded and quickly stepped forward to support Mrs. Gu's arm. Mr. Gu bowed to Master Jingkong who was standing beside him.
"I'm sorry to have caused trouble to Master Jingkong. I'll take my wife back and give her a good lesson!"
He blamed all the faults on Mrs. Gu and was about to escape from the Fo'an Temple when Lechen's voice sounded behind him.
"Wait."
Mrs. Gu's eyes lit up, and she thought Wei Chen had changed his mind, so she quickly turned her head to look at him.
Lechen walked towards her slowly and drew the long sword from his guard's waist.
"Today, Liaochen voluntarily cuts off his kinship with you two donors. From now on, he will have no further ties with you two donors."
tear——
As soon as he finished speaking, Lechen took out his sword and cut off his sleeves, completely breaking off all ties with Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu.
Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu stared at the sleeves of robes that fell to the ground with wide eyes, not knowing how to react for a moment.
Lechen put the sword in his hand back into the scabbard on the guard's waist, then turned and left.
Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu stared blankly at Lechen's back, opened their mouths but found nothing to say.
After Deng Lechen's figure disappeared from their sight, the two looked at each other and left the Fo'an Temple under the gaze of everyone.
This trip was a complete loss for them. Not only did they lose face, but they also lost their family ties. They had thought they could preserve the only incense left to their Gu family, but in the end, they found that it was all in vain...
Although they knew that using merit and Buddhist teachings to save Gu Yunchuan was a conspiracy, the two never doubted that Taoist Qingshan had said that Chen was a disaster star, nor did they ever think of taking him back.
From the moment they abandoned him in front of the Fo'an Temple, they treated him as if he didn't exist.
Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu quickly disappeared from everyone's sight with their tails between their legs, and the farce came to an end.
Master Jingkong glanced at the direction where Lechen left and sighed. Things had finally developed to this point.
He stepped forward in front of the group and said calmly, "Everyone is destined to die. The idea of immortality is nonsense. You have just witnessed what happened to my junior fellow apprentice. I hope you can learn from this and not go astray."
"We will remember Master Jingkong's teachings."
Everyone bowed with their hands and bowed to Master Jingkong. When they raised their heads again, Master Jingkong's figure had disappeared in front of them.
Lechen returned to Luoxia Peak with a heavy heart.
But it was not because of the incident of breaking off the relationship, but because he didn't know how to face Jiang Jingyu.
It was the task assigned to him by his master to remove the curse from her body, and he would certainly follow his master's orders and complete the task, but before that he needed to calm down first and face her only after his mind was completely calm.
Liaochen believes that time will eventually dilute everything.
He is a Buddhist, devoted to Buddhism, and should not have any other emotions except compassion for the people.
Lechen returned to the pavilion with heavy steps. When he arrived at the door of the pavilion, he took a deep breath, adjusted his mood, and stepped into the pavilion.
After seeing his figure through the window lattice of the Sutra Library, Jiang Jingyu stood up and walked out.
"Master Liaochen is back."
"Um."
Liaochen nodded lightly and returned to the cold and indifferent attitude he had when they first met.
Jiang Jingyu walked up to him and looked up at him: "How is it? Did everything go smoothly?"
"Well, thank you, Princess."
Lechen knew that the reason why Taoist Qingshan appeared in Fo'an Temple was due to Jiang Jingyu's involvement. After thanking her, he walked past her towards the stairs and went up to the second floor without looking back, not giving Jiang Jingyu a chance to speak.
After returning to his room, Lechen didn't come out for the whole day. He locked himself in the room and refused to come out no matter how Jiang Jingyu and the little monk tried to persuade him.
That night, he lay down on the uncomfortable bed with his clothes on. Even when he heard Jiang Jingyu crying out in terror, he did not leave the room.
He locked himself in his room during the day and didn't even go to the Buddhist temple, avoiding all opportunities to meet Jiang Jingyu.
He forced himself to draw a line between himself and Jiang Jingyu, returning to the distance they had when they first met.
She is a princess who is loved by everyone, and he is a son of Buddha who survived by chance thanks to the mercy of gods and Buddhas.
Their identities are very different and there shouldn't be too much involvement between them.
He was the one who broke the rules first, so now let him put everything back to the starting point.
Liaochen locked himself in the room for three days and three nights, without eating, drinking or talking.
On the morning of the fourth day, Jiang Jingyu came to the door of Chen's room again. The room was still closed, and the food that was placed at the door last night was still there.
"Master Liaochen, can you please come out? Eat your meal quickly. You haven't eaten for three days. Your body won't be able to bear it if you continue like this."
There was no response from inside the room.
Jiang Jingyu continued, "Why did Master Liaochen lock himself up? Is there something on your mind? If you have something on your mind, you can tell me. Don't keep it to yourself, it will only harm your health."
Lechen still didn't respond.
Jiang Jingyu lowered her head, her voice filled with desolation.
"Did I do something wrong to make Master Chen angry?"
"If Master Liaochen doesn't want to see me, I'll just leave."
