Chapter 429 (2/2)
Shang Zizhen also did not take people to visit his master's courtyard, and Chen Hui did not go in without authorization.
There was still a way to go. Shangzizhen took them along this road and went back, through the back door of the Taoist temple, into an open place.
This open place is a natural platform like place. The platform is not very big. You can see the head at a glance. The end of the platform is the wall of the peak.
The trees on the platform are also very sparse, only a dozen of them, and they don't grow luxuriantly. I think it's because they are rooted on the mountain and have less nutrients than the soil.
However, the tenacity of these trees can be seen from their ability to take root in the mountains and grow up and grow up.
The most striking thing is that there are eleven graves here.
The location of the eleven tombs is the same as that of the putuan in the lecture hall.
The place closest to the mountain wall, there is a larger tombs, with the opposite ten tombs, before and after each five!
Seeing these graves, Shang Zizhen's face showed a look of nostalgia. He walked slowly to the innermost grave, knelt down and kowtowed three times, but he didn't say anything.
Even if shangzi didn't say it, Chen Hui and the three of them knew that his master was buried here.
The remaining ten tombs should be buried by shangzizhen's brothers.
In front of each grave, there is a stone tablet engraved with the name of the owner.
There is only one without a monument!
After kowtowing in front of his master's grave, Shang Zizhen walked back, arched his hand at the remaining nine graves, and said, ”brothers, when I get to the time limit, I'll be here with you.”
Obviously, the grave without a monument was prepared by Shang Zizhen.
The tomb that shangzi really prepared for himself is the last one in the first row. Among the ten martial brothers, he should be the fifth.
At this time, Shang Zizhen looked at Chen Hui and said, ”today I will take you to Qingyang temple. You are not an outsider. I have something to ask for!”
Chen Hui had expected what shangzi really wanted to say, but he still said, ”please tell me, senior!”
”After I die, I hope you can bury me in that grave without a tombstone.” Shang Zizhen looked at Chen Hui and said, ”remove the mound at the head of the grave. Below is the excavated grave!”
Chen Hui nodded silently and said, ”if the elder dies in front of me, I will do it! But you are a man of practice. I'm just an ordinary man. In terms of life expectancy, I'm afraid the elder is longer than me? ”
”I don't have much life to live for!” Shangzi really laughed and said, ”that's why I took you to Qingyang temple!”
”There are so many people in practice. Why did the elder entrust me with the affairs behind me?” Chen Hui asked.
”Because you are not a man of practice!” Shangzi really laughed and said, ”there is something unique here. After I die, many people in practice will want to occupy this place and entrust me with the affairs behind me, which also means entrusting Qingyang temple to you!”
”I'm not afraid that I can't bear such a heavy burden?” Chen Hui said with a bitter smile, ”what if your practitioners force me to hand over Qingyang temple?”
