Chapter 267 Master tells you a secret
Yilian raised her hand but couldn't move it. She sighed from her throat, "From now on, you have your husband to carry you. Why do you need an old monk?"
"No, I want more." Wei Qingyan shook her head desperately, "My husband is my husband, and you are you. No one can replace you, no one can replace you..."
"Don't be ashamed. Now that you're well again, the old monk doesn't want to carry you." After taking a breath, Yilian continued, "You can carry the old monk out. This cave is too stuffy."
Now that his little girl is here, he doesn't want to die in this cave anymore.
"I'll help you." Shi Yu stepped forward. He could see that Wei Qingyan was extremely sad.
Wei Qingyan nodded and rubbed his face on Yilian's knees to wipe away the water droplets that blocked his vision.
When Shi Yu touched Yilian, his heart sank. Yilian's body had already stiffened, and it was a miracle that he was still alive. If he forcibly straightened his legs, he would definitely be hurt.
Wei Qingyan also noticed this and shook his head slightly at him, signaling him not to move, as it would hurt his master.
She sniffed and picked up Yilian who was in a meditative posture.
The originally obese man's skin and flesh were now withered, leaving only a skeleton, like a dry branch. Wei Qingyan held him carefully, fearing that the dry branch would break if he was too heavy.
After getting on the carriage and placing the person on the bedding, she regretted her stupidity and wondered why she didn't bring a few more layers of mattresses to make the carriage more padded.
The carriage was bumpy, so she sat behind Yilian, letting him lean against her. She spread her arms like wings, protecting Yilian in a circle to prevent him from falling.
When she was not feeling well in the past, her master took her to find medicine and took care of her in the same way.
Shi Yu hurriedly ordered Jingzhe to drive the carriage more steadily.
Yilian's old lips curved into a smile, and he said helplessly, "Girl, don't be nervous. The old monk can sit still, but he's a little tired and needs to rest. Call me when you're there."
"Okay." Wei Qingyan raised his head, forced back his tears, and felt bitter.
When the carriage arrived at the inn, Shi Yu had already ordered someone to find a doctor.
Yilian didn't wake up, and Wei Qingyan couldn't wake him up either.
Several doctors shook their heads and said, "The oil is running out, so we should prepare what we need to prepare."
This preparation is for the funeral.
Yu Liangzhi changed his clothes in the next room, drank some hot tea, and rushed over. He said to Wei Qingyan, "Your master held his breath just to see you.
He's been awake less often these days, and spends most of his time in a coma like this. Give him a clean, and change him into decent clothes. If you have anything to say, talk to him properly."
Having said that, it was time to send him off. It was painful for Yu Yilian to endure this.
Shi Yu said, "Xiao Yan, go prepare the cassock for Master, and I'll wash him."
"Did Master tell you about the Lotus Seal? Do you know how to return it to him?"
Wei Qingyan's eyes, washed by tears, were clear and bright, and he looked at Yu Liangzhi with pleading eyes.
It was the first time Yu Liangzhi saw her begging for help and sighed, "This is his fate. You don't need to think too much about it. Go and prepare some clothes. Don't regret it later."
Master loves cleanliness. Wei Qingyan didn't dare to delay any longer and turned to leave. Then she remembered something and looked at Yu Liangzhi. "Master, you don't like being a monk, and you don't want to wear robes, right? Can I buy some ordinary clothes?"
"The old monk's love for you is finally not in vain." Yilian spoke before opening her eyes, "A normal cloth shirt will be fine. There's no rush to change. You two go out first. I'll talk to the maid for a while."
Shi Yu nodded, walked out first and stood guard at the door.
Wei Qingyan squeezed out the words from his throat, "What do you want to talk about?"
"Take out the pills from my purse. The old monk will eat them so that we can chat for a while longer."
Wei Qingyan hurriedly did as he was told and fed Yilian some water with ginseng slices in it.
Yilian waved her hand, indicating that it was enough, and then looked at the lotus mark between her eyebrows, "It's good that you got it back. From now on, you are not allowed to save people without regard for others."
Wei Qingyan was stunned. Her master knew that she had lost the Merit Seal while saving Shi Yu. So, "Have you been to the capital?"
Yilian agreed with a hint of smile in her eyes.
"You followed me to the capital. You saw me save Shi Yu, saw me kill Wu Yuchu, saw me lose my life force, right?"
"You have regained your memory, and you are filled with hatred and rage. The old monk is afraid that you will commit murder and torture, and bring trouble upon me."
"No." Tears filled his eyes again, and Wei Qingyan rushed to the bed, "You followed me all the way because you were worried about me.
You found out that I had lost my seal of merit, and you became wary of Shi Yu, worried that I was unwilling to get vitality from him, and worried that I would not replenish my vitality in time.
So, you manipulated my father and made him support me with the Purple Qi of the Son of Heaven, right?"
She had previously been unable to understand why her loss of vitality would affect her father. It was clear that the fat monk had been inseparable from her for those three years and had never come to the capital to attack the emperor.
Now she understood that going to Penglai was a lie to her. He had been following her and protecting her without her noticing.
"I'm sorry, I'm so stupid. I should have thought about it more earlier. I should have come to you earlier. How can I return the lotus seal to you? Please tell me, how should I do it?"
"You haven't wronged the old monk, it's the Shi family who has wronged you. The emperor is your father, and taking a wisp of his purple energy to protect you is fulfilling his fatherly duty. The old monk knows his limits and won't affect his imperial destiny.
The old monk is also sorry for you. If he had not been ignorant in his childhood and been deceived by Shi Dehou's evil magic that harmed people, he would not have developed such ambition and the intention to harm others.
You will grow up in the royal family, and you only need to eat delicious food and have fun every day. There will be no battle at Huangshaling. The old monk is atonement, and you don't have to feel guilty.
The lotus seal cannot be returned, and the old monk doesn't want it anymore. Born with a lotus, he is destined to be lonely all his life. He has been tired of it all his life. That's enough.
The old monk did not lie to you. Although my lotus life soul turned into two balls of soul fire, plus Shi Yu's ball, the three balls of soul fire together resurrected you, but your merit seal was indeed refined from the merit in your body.
Shi Yu and I are at most the icing on the cake, so you don't have to feel bad. Even if I don't give you this lotus seal, my fate will only last these few years."
"But I don't want to be without my master. I also want you to take me to enjoy the mountains and rivers and eat all the delicious food in the world. And my mother, she always misses you.
If you don't want to run around, then you can stay in the capital. I am the crown princess now, and I still have treasures. You can spend them however you want and drink as much wine as you want.
I will never hide your wine again, and I will never argue with you again. I just want you to live well... wuwuwu..."
Tears streamed down my face, blurring my vision. I couldn't wipe them away, so I simply gave up.
Yilian used to scold Wei Qingyan for being strong. She was covered in wounds and never cried no matter how much pain she felt. But today, she was almost washed away by her tears.
Looking at the crying child, he wanted to pat her head as he used to and tell her not to be sad, but his body had long lost consciousness. Now he was only relying on the pill to keep him alive, and only his eyes and lips could move.
"It's not right for the Crown Princess to cry like this. It will only make her lose her dignity. Please apologize to your mother for me. If I hadn't helped Shi Dehou go to the Sword Forging Villa, she wouldn't have endured all the suffering that followed. The old monk has done so many evil things."
"Mother won't blame you. You were deceived by Shi Dehou. Your original intention was to pacify the world. I know that you and father have the same ambition. You just can't bear the suffering of the people.
He disguised himself too well, it's his fault, not yours..."
After hearing this, Yilian's eyes became moist. The most important things in his life were the mother and daughter. If they hated him, he would probably leave with regret.
Sighing, he added, "I just moved to a new place to live, but you have more difficult things to do. This is also my fault.
When the Great Wei was founded, I faked my death and retired to Penglai, my mother's hometown. I wanted to look for her relatives.
They are a family of magic and look down on ordinary people. Naturally, they look down on me who went out secretly and gave birth to an ordinary person.
I found it boring, so I returned to Wei, ignoring the secular world and living in seclusion in Lotus Pier.
It was not until I rescued you three years ago that I discovered that Shi Dehou had used the evil art of taking over other people's bodies to survive in the human world.
But by then, the master had already refined the Lotus Seal into soul fire and sent it into your body, so you could no longer find out his whereabouts, let alone stop him.
I could only avoid him until I smelled the scent of resentment Gu on those who were looking for me. The resentment Gu was made by stuffing black seedling poisonous insects into a woman's body and letting the poisonous insects eat the woman alive. The woman must have felt great resentment for dying in such a painful way.
If the resentment created by this resentment absorbs too much resentment, it will become a resentment body. The resentment body is like a demon, and you cannot deal with it at the moment."
Wei Qingyan's heart swelled and ached to the extreme, and then burst, causing him to suffocate with pain.
Therefore, he did not save her for the purpose of atonement, but discovered Shi Dehou's crime after saving her.
"Then you must live well. After the Merit Seal comes back, I will be able to see the little ghost on the body of King Jing who was possessed by another body, and I will also be able to see Abu hiding in the Broken Evil.
If he cultivates a body filled with resentful Gu, will I still be able to see the clues?"
"The old monk was born with the ability to practice occult arts. He has memories of the vengeful Gu, but he has never actually seen its body. I think Shi Dehou has delved into evil arts since he developed ambitions.
That's why you need to be stronger. Girl, come closer and listen. Master will tell you a secret."
