Holy Bone

Chapter 1699: One Reincarnation, One Person
After dinner, outside the gate of Prince Zunyi's mansion, Master Yiyun escorted Jin'an and Fatty Li out of the mansion.

Qi Bo was there too.

Before Jin An and Fatty Li got on the carriage, Master Yiyun said softly, "Thank you."

Master Yiyun did not explicitly say why she was thanking him, but everyone present knew it.

At this time, Fatty Li was very tactful and said to Jinan, "Master Jinan, I'm waiting for you in the carriage," and then he took the initiative to get into the carriage, leaving some space for the two of them to be alone.

Jin An smiled and waved his hands: "This is my duty as the Criminal Investigation Department. Young Master Yiyun, why should I thank you? Besides, Young Master Yiyun has saved my life several times. Since this is the case that the prince wants me to investigate, I will do my best. Young Master Yiyun, there is no need to be too polite."

Master Yiyun frowned and looked at Jinan: "Master Japan will go to the Wuzang Taoist Temple to burn incense and fulfill his wish."

There was always sadness lingering between Master Yiyun's brows, and it seemed that he had a lot to say to Jin An, but when it came to his lips, it seemed that there were many words he couldn't say, which led to the above words.

Jin An clasped his fists and bowed: "I respectfully welcome Master Yiyun to be my guest in the temple."

"When I came to the palace today, the old Taoist priest and that stupid sheep who only knows how to eat, drink, defecate, urinate and sleep asked me to say hello to Master Yiyun, an old friend from Chang County on their behalf."

Jin'an was not exaggerating. When he came, Shayang did tell him a few things.

They, a few people and a sheep, first met in Chang County. Chang County is the starting point of all their encounters. Needless to say, the feelings here are deep, and there is a different bond between them.

"Oh? The famous eldest brother of Wuzang Taoist Temple in the whole capital has achieved enlightenment and become an immortal, and can speak human language?" Young Master Yiyun, who had always had a sentimental look on his face, relaxed his thin eyebrows a little, became interested, and asked curiously.

Jin An laughed softly and shook his head: "That silly sheep only knows how to eat, drink, defecate, urinate and sleep all day long. It is so stupid all day long. How can it have the chance to become an immortal and become the Great Aries Immortal?"

puff.

Hearing Jin'an belittling goats behind their backs, Master Yiyun could not help laughing out loud. Perhaps he was thinking back to a few months ago when Jin'an was hunted by goats all over the capital, and there was a rumor in the capital that the current martial arts immortal was governed by a goat; or perhaps he was thinking back to their daily life with a goat in the haunted den of Chang County, where Jin'an was always beaten black and blue by the goats, and they would fight every now and then, and both the man and the goat were stubborn.

When talking about the various things in the Wuzang Taoist Temple, Master Yiyun's eyes, which were full of thoughts, regained some of their former brilliance, and he slyly said, "Oh? Since the eldest brother has not yet attained the Tao and become an immortal, and can speak human language, how does Taoist Jin'an know that he has something to tell me?"

"Master Jin'an, why don't you tell me what Senior Brother conveyed to me? You must convey the original words."

Young Master Yiyun emphasized the two words "original words" on purpose.

Jin An pretended not to hear the hidden meaning in Master Yiyun's words, and said in a dumbfounded manner: "Silly Sheep asked Master Yiyun to come to Wuzang Taoist Temple often. It misses the days in the Western Regions and Tubo, and also misses the carrots and salt bricks that Qi Bo fed it."

Unexpectedly, Qi Bo could still hear himself laughing heartily with a happy expression. That experience was indeed worth remembering for a lifetime and was a precious memory.

Young Master Yiyun's eyes were becoming more and more cunning: "Did Senior Brother really tell you so much? I want to hear your original words."

Master Yiyun emphasized his original words again and hinted at Jin'an repeatedly.

Jin An looked embarrassed: "What?"

Phew, when Master Yiyun smiled, his alertness, composure, and dignified scholarly temperament disappeared. The sadness between his brows also became less, and there was a bit more sunshine that dispelled the dark clouds.

Qi Bo stood there in shock, amazed by the sight of Jin An imitating the sound of a sheep to his own son.

As both of them are martial arts immortals, Qi Bo's eyes were filled with reminiscence, as if the scene before him overlapped with the late emperor in his memory. He saw the outline of the late emperor when he was young in Jin An and his own son.

"Sure enough, only Taoist Jin'an can make the young master let go of his heavy worries, let go of all his defenses against the world, and be carefree. And only Taoist Jin'an can make the young master laugh time and time again." Qi Bo looked at the two of them happily, and in his heart he only hoped that his young master could be happy forever and no longer have to carry those heavy shackles.

Young Master has been burdened with shackles that ordinary people cannot bear since he was young. His heart is too tired, and his life is too tiring. Alas. ...

Jin'an was not deliberately imitating a goat's cry to make Master Yiyun laugh. The above words were the original words of the goat, but Xuejian translated them.

Jin'an was so embarrassed when he saw Master Yiyun laughing non-stop that he hurriedly got on the Bi'an carriage and left, looking quite embarrassed as if he had fled in a panic.

Seeing Jin An fleeing in panic, Qi Bo also laughed. It was not until the Bi'an carriage disappeared around the corner of the blue brick street that Qi Bo sighed, "Master really didn't make a mistake. The person that Master wants to protect is exactly the same as Master when he was young."

"The old master and the old lady are in heaven."

Young Master Yiyun did not say anything, but his bright eyes kept staring at the direction the carriage left for a long time.

……

……

In the departing Bi'an carriage, Fatty Li, who was also the coachman for Jin'an, felt that he could no longer see the Zunyi Palace, so he spoke up: "Master Jin'an, Princess Hanyun and Qi Bo have been standing outside the palace to see us off. Princess Hanyun is a very nice person."

At the end, he added two more sentences: "King Zunyi is also very good."

"Everyone in Prince Zunyi's mansion is doing well."

"Master Jin'an, I think it was worth it for you to bleat like a sheep to Princess Hanyun just now."

Even Fatty Li couldn't help laughing. Jin An coughed awkwardly in the carriage, and then he said in a dignified manner, "Fatty Li, I think you ate too much at Prince Zunyi's Mansion today. Even the delicacies from the mountains and seas at Prince Zunyi's Mansion couldn't fill your mouth."

"When we left the Wuzang Taoist Temple, Silly Sheep indeed called out like that. You heard it. The most important thing about our Criminal Investigation Department's case-handling style is to seek truth from facts."

Fatty Li grinned. He could hear a hint of embarrassment in Jinan's hurried explanation.

If he met someone as good as Princess Hanyun, he would be willing to learn to bleat like a sheep. Of course, he only dared to say this secretly in his heart.

Fatty Li suddenly put away his playful smile and asked a serious question, "Master Jin'an, what do you think of the Zunyi Palace today?"

What he saw and heard in Zunyi Palace today made Fatty Li feel curious and confused. Not long after he left the palace, he couldn't help but ask about the doubts in his heart.

At this time, there were only two of them in the entire Bi'an carriage, and Fatty Li dared to ask Jin'an directly.

This time when he came to Zunyi Palace, Jinan only brought Fatty Li with him. Last time, he also only brought Fatty Li with him, and this time he only brought Fatty Li with him.

But this time the carriage was very quiet and Jinan did not respond.

Fatty Li couldn't help but turn his head to look at the carriage behind him, but there was a curtain between him and the carriage, so he couldn't see what was going on in the carriage, let alone what Jin An's expression was at this moment.

Fatty Li opened his mouth several times and wanted to ask more questions, but in the end he shrank his neck and didn't dare to ask, concentrating on driving.

The Zunyi Palace, the changes in the royal family, the death of the previous emperor, the successive witches, the Shenzhou mystery, the Gewu Immortal Cauldron... more than ten years later, it involved the cannibalism of bones, the collapse of Guimo Mountain, and the tomb robbers of Feihe Mountain... Fatty Li was a low-ranking official and did not dare to think too much about it.

"Damn it, Fatty Li is just a centurion. Why should I worry so much? Fatty Li just needs to know that Taoist Jin'an and Zunyi Palace treat me well." Fatty Li has been bribed by the two dinners at Zunyi Palace.
