Chapter 110: Returning Home

Gu Du's tears flowed down, and suddenly he heard someone outside the tent report: "Master Gu, Master Feng Jiu wants to see you, saying that he has brought back the bones of Mrs. Zun and the son-in-law."

Gu Du and Lixia hurried out of the tent.

Feng Jiu looked haggard, with a body on his back and a white cloth hanging on his chest. When Gu Du ran closer, Feng Jiu had just removed the body on his back and had soldiers helping him lay it flat on the ground.

Gu Du panickedly stepped forward to untied the white cloth. When he saw Jin Lan's black face, he couldn't help crying loudly.

Li Xia knelt beside Gu Du, crying silently.

After crying for a while, Gu Du raised his hand to wipe his tears, turned around and kowtowed at Feng Jiu and said, "I will thank you for your kindness."

Feng Jiu quickly knelt down, holding the white cloth package in his arms, and said, "Master Gu doesn't have to do this. Jin Lan has the right to be a comrade. She died in a foreign land. I should bring her back. Master Gu, this is the body of the son."

Gu Du took the white cloth package and hugged it in his arms. Feng Jiu said again: "To prevent the body from rotting, I have done some treatment. Please forgive Master Gu for offending."

Gu Du choked and said, "I only have gratitude, but I will not be responsible for it."

Dongfang Bin and Dongfang Xialan rushed over after hearing the news. Seeing Jin Lan's remains, Dongfang Xialan bit her lips, and she really looked like her.

Feng Jiu looked at Dongfang Xia Lan in shock, his eyes unbounced.

Dongfang Xia Lan frowned slightly and said, "My name is Dongfang Xia Lan. I am the young master of Jueling Sect. I have just been granted the title of Princess Xishan by the emperor."

Feng Jiu was shocked and quickly kowtowed and said, "My minister Feng Jiu, pay homage to His Highness the Princess."

Dongfang Xia Lan replied: "Get up, look, you are tired too, go down and rest."

Feng Jiu replied: "Yes."

Dongfang Bin frowned and glared at Dongfang Xialan, and Dongfang Xialan glared back in discontent.

Gu Du took Jin Lan's body back to the camp, and Dongfang Bin and Dongfang Xia Lan also returned to their camp. Dongfang Xia Lan sneered: "Thousand-mile-carrying corpse is probably not just the meaning of a comrade, right?"

Dongfang Bin scolded: "You understand? Everyone is dead, so you are not afraid of being disgusted by saying such words?"

Dongfang Xia Lan said angrily: "I told you, but I didn't tell anyone!"

Dongfang Bin scolded: "You shouldn't think about these things. What does it have to do with you?"

Dongfang Xia Lan snorted, pouted and stopped talking.

After hearing the news, Emperor Ze immediately issued an edict to bury Jin Lan and Gu Beiguan with state gifts, and come to pay their respects in person.

The next day after the burial, Li Xia got up early in the morning and left. She came to Jin Lan's grave, sat in front of the tombstone, looked at the tombstone and said, "I really didn't expect that we will be reunited again. You... I just got my mind and you are back. You are really my nemesis."

"The soul book says that human power cannot destroy souls. The so-called soul destruction is just to destroy souls. I know you are still there. I ask Fengjiu to send you back in the dark, looking at me and him, so as not to be occupied by me. You! People are still so stingy when they die..."

I was nagging and said a lot. When I was about to leave, I saw a person walking towards me, looking like Fengjiu.

Feng Jiu immediately seemed a little cramped when he saw Li Xia from a distance. He stopped and turned around for half a time and stopped. He seemed to feel that he had been seen, and it would be even more inappropriate to leave.

Li Xia called out: "Fengjiu, is it you?"

Feng Jiu walked over quickly, bowed and said, "Disciple Feng Jiu, I have met Master Li."

Li Xia asked, "Let's come to see Jin Lan?"

Feng Jiu looked embarrassed, and Li Xia smiled and said, "You are back home with a corpse thousands of miles away. This kind of intention is self-evident. It would be strange if a woman like Jin Lan doesn't like it if there are few men."

Feng Jiu lowered his head and didn't say anything. Li Xia asked again: "How did you find her body?"

Feng Jiu replied: "The Emperor of Ling was furious and issued an order to bury the mother and son's body. I carried it back at night, but the Emperor of Ling regretted it after turning around. He sent someone to search it. If he didn't find it, he would search the whole city. I hid for half a month before I could get off the road, and I had to hide from the officers and soldiers all the way, so I didn't catch up with the army to retreat."

Li Xia saw tears in her eyes and said with a choking feeling: "Thank you for your hard work."

Feng Jiu also saw tears in his eyes and whispered: "It's good that she can return home and reunite with Master Gu. It's nothing for her disciple to work hard."

Li Xia nodded with tears in her eyes and said, "If you know Jin Lan underground, I should thank you for your kindness."

Feng Jiu choked and said, "Master Li, you may not know that Jin Lan's soul was destroyed by the Spirit Emperor."

Li Xia said: "I know, but the Soul Book records that human power cannot destroy souls. It just destroys the soul into an unknown place. Jin Lan is still there."

Feng Jiu burst into tears in an instant, and Li Xia said, "I'm back."

Feng Jiu bowed and said, "Thank you, Master Li."

Lixia replied, "No thanks."

That night, Gu Du dreamed of Jin Lan at midnight. When he saw Jin Lan, Gu Du rushed up to hug her in tears, but hugged her for a moment. Jin Lan smiled and said, "Husband, don't be sad anymore, don't be too persistent in avenging me. You must know how to judge the situation and never make arbitrary advances. Now that you are serving in the Ze Kingdom, I am very happy. The Spirit Emperor is unrighteous. If you can help the Ze Emperor unify the world, it is a blessing for the people."

Gu Du cried and said, "Jin Lan, I miss you so much."

Jin Lan replied with a smile: "I miss you too. You must live well and never commit suicide. You still have Lixia. If you don't think about yourself, you should think about her. But... you slapped her on the face, and she dared to say that I was stingy. It's so outrageous!"

Gu Du was stunned, Jin Lan began to become empty, and said with a smile: "Husband, I have limited spiritual power and can't come to see you often. You must take care of yourself."

"Jin Lan!" Gu Du called and sat up, only to realize that he was having a dream.

Li Xia was awakened by him, so she quickly got up and lit the light, sat down at the couch and looked at him and asked, "What's wrong?"

Gu Du choked and said, "I dreamed of Jin Lan."

Li Xia sighed and placed the lamp on the edge of the couch. Gu Du said, "Go back and lie down quickly, don't get frozen."

Li Xia took her coat and put it on her, sat back to the edge of the couch, and said, "It's okay, I'll sit with you."

Gu Du lifted the quilt and said, "Come up and cover your legs."

Li Xia got on the couch, sat opposite Gu Du, and covered her legs with a quilt.

Gu Du sighed and said, "Jin Lan told me that now I am serving Zeguo, and she is very happy."

Li Xia smiled and said, "Now you are a fellow comrade with her, she is naturally happy. Besides, the Spirit Emperor is unrighteous, and even the Jueling Sect needs to help Emperor Ze, which shows that the world will return sooner or later."

Gu Du looked at her and said, "But it's very strange. She finally told me that I would slap you on her face and say that you said she was stingy."

Li Xia was stunned, then laughed and said angrily: "You are not allowed to slap me!"
