I don't understand why the master asked him to bury Zhou Zheng with his own hands. Ye Li didn't explain too much about it, but just said something.

"Body dies, Dao disappears, no matter what happened in life, death is dead."

"Oh."

Hearing this, although Wu Xiyue still didn't understand, she still nodded obediently.

He didn't say anything about Zhou Zheng's relationship with her.

While the master and apprentice were talking, Wu Zhen walked over surrounded by a group of monks.

Although there was a gentle smile on his face, giving people the impression of elegance and kindness, but looking at Wu Zhen who was walking towards him and the others, Ye Li was still wary.

"Princess Fairy."

Immediately, Wu Zhen greeted Hu Xian'er with a smile.

Hu Xian'er knew Wu Zhen, and Wu Zhen naturally knew him too.

And when Wu Zhen called Hu Xian'er a princess, many monks present were taken aback.

They all knew that Hu Xian'er was from the Qingqiu Fox Clan, but they didn't know that Hu Xian'er was the princess of the Qingqiu Fox Clan.

At this time, after hearing Wu Zhen's words, many people realized this, and at the same time, the way they looked at Hu Xian'er completely changed.

The difference in identity between the ordinary Qingqiu fox clan and the princess of the Qingqiu fox clan is not even a tiny bit.

Who would have imagined that this seemingly impossibly beautiful woman would be the princess of the Qingqiu Fox Clan.

Knowing Hu Xian'er's true identity, everyone looked at Ye Li with envious eyes. What kind of shit luck did this guy have to be favored by Hu Xian'er? This is simply a step up to the sky.

However, Hu Xian'er frowned slightly, obviously dissatisfied with Wu Zhen's direct exposure of her identity, but she still saluted Wu Zhen.

"Xian'er has seen the national teacher."

"Princess Xian'er, this really upsets me. I haven't seen you for several years since I left Qingqiu. I don't know if Patriarch Huyu is still okay?"

"Master Lao is concerned, father is fine."

After a conversation without much nutrition, Wu Zhen's eyes finally fell on Ye Li.

Chatting with Hu Xian'er might be pure chatting, but facing Ye Li, Wu Zhen's eyes were full of meaning.

A faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"You are Ye Li?"

"Meet the national teacher."

"Hehe, there's no need to be like this. Yes, you can be regarded as the number one person in the dynasty if you can cultivate martial artists to this point."

"Beheaded several black shadow ghosts in a row, I really don't know how you little guy cultivated.

"However, if you weren't here today, I'm afraid the casualties would be even greater. Everyone present should thank you. If you have time to go to the imperial capital, you can come to the National Teacher's Mansion to find me."

Wu Zhen's words were full of approval, and at first glance, it seemed that he admired Ye Li very much, and he even expressed his intention to let Ye Li enter the court as an official.

It's just that Ye Li always pretended to be stupid about this, and Ye Li didn't have much interest in becoming an official in the court.

Seeing Ye Li like this, Wu Zhen didn't say anything more, and changed the topic.

"Dongyang County is in such a catastrophe. I plan to hold a monk meeting here. It happens that you are all here. Let's participate together and discuss the affairs of Dongyang County."

"And Ye Li, you come too."

After speaking, Wu Zhen took a deep look at Ye Li, and then turned around and left without waiting for Ye Li to reply.

I don't know what Wu Zhen was thinking, but seeing his leaving back, Ye Li frowned slightly.

Just like what Hu Xian'er said, this person's scheming is very deep, and Ye Li doesn't like this feeling very much.

"Should we stay?"

At this time, Hu Xian'er on the side asked, upon hearing this, Ye Li smiled helplessly.

"I'm afraid it's beyond our control."

Now it's not a matter of whether I want to, but a question of whether I can leave Dongyang County.

According to Ye Li's guess, the current Dongyang County City may have been controlled by Wu Zhen long ago.

Sure enough, after restraining Zhou Zheng's body, Ye Li and the others originally planned to leave the city.

But just at the gate of the city,

He was stopped by two monks.

Judging by the clothes they were wearing, it was obvious that they were from the National Teacher's Mansion and were Wu Zhen's subordinates.

At first they did not let Ye Li and the others go out of the city, but they did not let Ye Li go out until Ye Li took out Wu Zhen's token.

The token was given by Wu Zhen when Zhou Zheng's body was restrained.

"What do you want Zhou Zheng's body to do?"

I thought that no one was paying attention, and planned to quietly restrain the corpse and leave, but who would have thought that Wu Zhen suddenly appeared behind them.

Seeing this, Ye Li casually found an excuse and said.

"The king of the county used to be kind to me, but now that he is dead, I thought of burying him in a field outside the city, which can be regarded as repaying the kindness he once had."

Such an excuse is naturally very clumsy, I thought Wu Zhen would not believe it.

But who would have thought that after staring at Ye Li for a while, Wu Zhen suddenly laughed.

"I didn't expect Master Ye to be so sympathetic and righteous. After death, no matter what, since the person is dead, the previous things are over."

"Master Ye holds this token, and he can enter and leave the county freely."

He bluntly said that the county city has been taken over by the National Teacher's Office, and no one is allowed to enter or leave at the moment, but with Wu Zhen's token, he can enter and exit freely.

It seemed that he had done Ye Li a great favor, but in fact, Ye Li could still hear the faint warning in the words.

Sure enough, as I guessed, now I can't leave even if I want to.

As for escaping secretly with this token, it is even more impossible. Since people dare to give it to you, they are not afraid that you will be able to escape.

After leaving the city, they found a place with a good view, and Wu Xiyue personally buried Zhou Zheng.

Not far away, Ye Li and Hu Xian'er stood side by side, and Hu Xian'er, who had a bit of anger on his face, said dissatisfiedly.

"Wu Zhen is trying to force us to stay?"

As the princess of the Qingqiu Fox Clan, Hu Xian'er is naturally very dissatisfied with Wu Zhen's actions. How is this different from house arrest?

To this, Ye Li said with a smile.

"It's still because you are here, otherwise I guess I wouldn't be so gentle."

Ye Li could tell that Wu Zhen was interested in him. As for the reason, he could imagine it with his toes, but it was because of his own strength.

Think about it, a martial artist can kill several black shadow-level ghosts in a row. This strength is stronger than that of a cultivator in the purple mansion.

But looking at the dynasty for hundreds of years, which warrior can do this step.

So in Wu Zhen's view, there must be a secret in Ye Li, and he is very curious about this secret.

Ye Li knew that he could still stand here because of Hu Xian'er.

Because of the existence of Hu Xian'er, Wu Zhen did not dare to do anything to him blatantly, otherwise it would not be as simple as house arrest.

I'm afraid it has been taken to the National Teacher's Mansion for slices.

Hearing this, Hu Xian'er was still angry and said.

"No wonder Daddy said that Wu Zhen has a bad stomach and is not a good person."
