Arranged properly, what does that mean?
Premarital agreement.
Qi Yoyo's engagement is a yin marriage.
Xu Nuan's engagement has been invalidated, and the spiritual essence of Miao Xuan Yu was taken by Sun Zhuo.
That Lao Qin Head, what else hasn't been revealed yet?
I was silent for a long time before I said, "Dad, Mom, the matter of affection is something that the son wants to make up his own mind."
"This..." There was concern in my mother's eyes.
My father was about to say something, but he was glared at by her!
"Reveal the divine, indeed, in these years, everything has been accomplished by you alone, however, there is a matter that you must do." My father's tone was very serious.
I did not immediately respond, feeling rather restless.
My mother glared at my father again, and he didn't say anything.
After that, the atmosphere became somewhat unnatural, and we just quietly continued our journey.
Until it gradually grew dark, and we arrived at the Tian Shou Taoist Temple.
The location was precisely the side of the temple, still not the main entrance.
The old Gong popped his head up, and his eyes darted around rapidly.
"Boss, you guys are acting strange."
While staring at the wall of Tian Shou Taoist Temple, Lao Gong said, "The old lady doesn't allow people to speak, the old gentleman wants to speak, and you guys don't want to listen. As a family, we should all get along well and not keep secrets. Hiding things is not right."
"I don't know Qin Weizi. The old man is good at arithmetic, but man's calculation is not as good as the sky's."
"The master's attitude shows that there's nothing to hide, the old master and the old lady, whatever needs to be said, let it all come out. We'll handle things properly."
The night is deeply profound, and the Tian Shou Daoist Temple is exceptionally quiet, which is completely different from the atmosphere the last time I came here.
Lao Gong paused on my shoulder, gazing at my father.
After a moment of silence, he finally mentioned the matter that he hadn't spoken about earlier.
originally, the matter was still about Qi Yoyo!
Old Qin Head had arranged a marriage between me and Qi Yoyo, which was an unbreakable promise.
If the marriage agreement is to be broken, there's one thing that must be done: her body must be returned to its original place.
Otherwise, even if I and Huāyíng become souls, this will still be a potential hazard.
In the back mountain of Laiguan Village, Qi Yoyo's body, though sealed, and her main soul trapped in a nightmare for a long time, would still find its way out one day.
According to the parents' command and the matchmaker's words, with the master offering a dowry, Qi Yoyo can be said to be a legally married ghost wife. After her body is returned to its original place, with a divorce notice and without any resentment or anger, she can transcend and ascend to heaven.
My heart slightly relaxed, thinking that Lao Qin Head had prepared something unexpected for me.
I would never ignore the matter involving Qi Yoyo.
The part of her soul that protected me is still being controlled by the pestilence ghost.
However, I feel a slight weight on my heart. At least at this moment, I still have no way to deal with the pestilence ghost. Obtaining Tian Gongquan and reviving Lao Qin Head is the key opportunity.
I was pondering and remained silent.
At this moment, my mother expressed a hint of resentment and reproach, saying, "I had been opposed to this matter from the beginning. Although Xu Fangnian's character is not very good, Xu Nuan is a talented and handsome person, and her destiny is beneficial to you. But Qi Yoyo is not an ordinary ghost body. Yet, she still went through a marriage ceremony, which has brought endless trouble."
My father clearly wanted to explain something, but he didn't want to anger my mother, so he looked very difficult.
Old Gong smiled and said, "For past things, what do you worry about, Mrs.? You can face it when it comes, and handle it as it arises. When the time comes to solve the engagement issue, I am not a person who forgets favors. Originally, the lady without a head needed to be rescued. Moreover, the old Gong Head had calculated well before. It was meant for a person to have two lives in one body. The old master's destiny was paired with Miao Xuan Yu Ernu (a Yin and Yang couple), and the over-world life was matched with a ghost wife. This is quite fragrant."
"Only, the master by some twist of fate ended up on another path. He also doesn't like having multiple wives and concubines, otherwise, there would have been no need to cancel the engagement."
"Lao Gong." I called him out, so that he wouldn't act disrespectfully again.
My dad was startled and immediately nodded, saying, "Throughout history, a man……"
My mother's reaction was immediate and intense; she grasped her father's ear with a firm grip.
Lao Gong shivered.
He tilted his head slightly, as if trying to avoid his own ears……
"As for my son, I have no objections. Have you thought about it too?" my mother said indignantly.
"No... dared not..." my father answered in pain.
The minor rift in the family was easily dissolved by Lao Gong.
This matter was not mentioned by any of us three.
However, I put this matter in my heart.
Afterward, we climbed the wall and entered the Tian Shou Taoist Temple.
The location was still the courtyard where Qin Yi used to live.
The courtyard inside seemed very spacious. Her flower bed was not tended, and had become disorganized, with a lot of fallen leaves on the ground. It looked like the Tian Shou Daoist Temple was still as if the people had left and the building stood empty.
I asked my parents to wait in the courtyard for a while, and walked around with Lao Gong to survey the surroundings.
As expected.
At least, within the range we have seen, we haven't seen a single Taoist monk!
We rejoined my parents, explained the situation, and then continued.
My father whispered, "They didn't come back, that's not surprising. After this round of suppression was so fierce, they may be afraid that it's a trap and want to completely eliminate them. That's quite convenient for us. However, I wonder where all those Tian Shou Daoist monks went?"
At that moment, I also couldn't think of where they could hide.
Could it be that one of the Taoist temples had been gradually occupied, and they were hiding there?
Without wasting much time, we left the courtyard where Qin Yi lived and continued towards a direction led by Lao Gong.
Yang Shenggui can naturally sense it, and his connection with the residual spirit is even more explicit.
Not long after, we arrived at a place.
Previously, I had accidentally used a thunderbolt to destroy the main hall of Tian Shou Daoist Temple!
The giant stone bowl, now in pieces, and the two rows of houses were left in ruins.
There were many remnants of bronze and peach wood swords, along with deep sword marks on the ground.
"Tsk, the Tian Shou Daoist monks are not living up to their name. That old man was full of bluff, and earlier he was driven back by the two elders of Liu family. They were in retreat. Next time they want to spar, what do you think, was there anyone from Gu Qiang City involved in their previous operation?"
"Tian Shou Daoist, hahaha, next time I'll call him the Running Away Taoist."
"Their main base has been destroyed!"
Lao Gong kept chanting, showing excitement.
I remained silent, not responding.
Does this really represent the weakness of Tian Shou Daoist?
Lao Gong himself knows that Yunjin Mountain, Juqu Mountain, along with Gu Qiang City, almost all the high-level experts in the Yin and Yang realm had gathered here.
Even if the Tian Shou Daoist is strong, he can only temporarily avoid the sharp edge.
In this way, the Tian Shou Daoist didn't die, and the Tian Shou Daoist Temple wasn't destroyed. Instead, it was divided into many smaller temples, forcing other temples to withdraw. This is enough to demonstrate its strength.
Lao Gong's head jumped into the rubble, with broken stones and tiles rolling out continuously.
He quickly shouted for us to come over.
Walking up close, I looked at Lao Gong clearing away the chaos of rocks to reveal a hole, and a flight of steps leading downwards in sight!
