"That's right, but I have no other choice. I can't find the murderer who killed my senior brother. If I knew the murderer, I would definitely avenge my senior brother!" said Master Hui Jing.

"But, Master Huijing, I know where Master Huiyan is going." Bailiqi said at this time.

"Oh, do you know where my senior brother went? Where is he now?" Master Hui Jing immediately stood up, walked up to Baili Qi and asked.

"But, Master Hui Jing, please sit down first. My news is not good news." Baili Qi said.

Master Hui Jing took a few steps back and sat on the chair, looking a little lost.

"You tell me, I can bear it," said Master Hui Jing.

"Master Huiyan has passed away!" Bailiqi paused for a few seconds and then said.

"Ah? Is this true?" Master Hui Jing stood up again and asked.

"Master Hui Jing, every word I said is true. Please calm down and don't get excited." Baili Qi said.

Baili Qi then told the story of how Master Huiyan had fought with the army in the valley, but he concealed the events of Baili Valley.

When Master Hui Jing was listening to Bailiqi's story, he didn't seem to be very excited about the previous story.

However, he felt a little uneasy when Bailiqi told him that Master Huiyan asked him to go to Pufa Temple with the beads to get the notes.

"What this young friend said sounds like the truth. My senior brother is a master of martial arts. If there weren't so many soldiers besieging him, I believe he wouldn't have suffered any harm."

"What a pity, how did my senior brother offend those soldiers?" Master Hui Jing said.

"Master Hui Jing, please do not be too sad. No one knows why Master Hui Yan suffered. But since he has passed away, let us wish him to ascend to heaven as soon as possible."

"Don't be too sad on your side."

Master Lu comforted him.

"My young friend, have you brought the beads that belonged to my senior brother? I also want to take a look at my senior brother's relics." Master Hui Jing said.

"Master, I brought it here. Please take a look. It is this string of beads."

Bailiqi said, and took the beads in his hand for Master Huijing to confirm.

"This is indeed my senior brother's bead necklace. Outsiders cannot detect what's inside. My friend, can you detect what's inside?" Master Hui Jing asked.

"Master, I can't do that either, because this is the master's relic. Without his permission, it seems that no one can use it."

Bailiqi replied.

Bailiqi did not tell the truth because after coming into contact with some people, he learned to be reserved and no longer tell everything.

Especially after experiencing some of the things that happened to Elder Gu, Bailiqi became more cautious.

"My senior brother is good in everything except this one thing. Tell me, why did my senior brother do this?"

"He has few people he can trust, and he doesn't even trust me."

"When he left the monastery more than a year ago, he did give me a notebook and told me to keep it because he had some things to do while he was away."

"But then he added that if someone came to take the note with his token, he would give the note to the person holding his token."

"But he never told me how to open his notebook. I don't know why. I am his close junior fellow apprentice." Master Hui Jing said. He seemed a little unwilling.

"When Master Huiyan left, did he tell you where he was going?" asked Master Lu.

"He didn't say anything, but he said he had something very urgent to deal with. He also said he might not come back to the temple for a long time."

"He didn't say anything else. He is just like that, and everything he does is a bit mysterious." Master Hui Jing replied.

"I don't know about that. He always has his own ideas when doing things." Master Lu replied.

"Master, can I see Master Huiyan's notes?"

Bailiqi asked.

His purpose was to get this note, so he wanted to get it as soon as possible.

However, Master Hui Jing seemed unwilling to mention the notes, nor to hand them over, so he had to take the initiative to bring up the notes.

"Oh, that's true, my friend. The notebook is indeed here with me."

"But it's useless even if you take it away. Without my brother's decree, the notebook cannot be opened. It will be useless even if you take it away."

Master Hui Jing said. He still didn't want to hand over the notebook. I don't know what his purpose is.

"Master, Master Huiyan asked me to come to you to retrieve his notes before he passed away, so I want to see what the notes look like."

"Master, can you take it out and let me see it?"

Bailiqi said.

He saw that Master Hui Jing did not want to hand it over to him, but wanted to keep it in his own hands. This was not acceptable. Master Hui Jing was indeed not that honest.

It seems that there are some difficulties today. Even if the master is here, he may not be able to take away the notes.

So Bailiqi adopted a delaying tactic and let him take it out and have a look first.

"Oh, you are right, my friend. Since Senior Brother Huiyan asked you to take it, I should let you take a look."

"Although you may not be able to open it, you can still take a look at it." Master Hui Jing replied.

As he said this, he returned to the bedroom, took out a small box and placed it on the table.

Then he opened the small box, and inside was a book. However, there seemed to be a restriction on the book. Anyone who touched it would be rejected immediately, and no one could get close to the book at all.

"Brother Lu, young friend, look, this is my brother's notebook. It is placed right here. If you can open it, you can take it."

"Otherwise, you should leave it with me. It's useless even if you take it away. It's better to leave it with me for safety."

"Besides, this is the only relic left by my senior brother, and I need to keep it safe." Master Hui Jing said.

It turned out that Master Hui Jing was unwilling to hand it over.

Now they have put forward conditions. If you can't open it, you won't be allowed to take it away. They just take it for themselves. It's really shameless.

"Master, Master Huiyan told me at that time that he could take the notes from you with just this string of beads."

"Why do you ask me to open the notebook before I can take it away? I don't understand." Bailiqi said, and he was also a little angry. This Master Hui Jing is really nosy.

"I mean well, my friend, please don't blame me. Although my senior brother asked you to take the notes."

"But after you take it away, you can't open it, so what's the point of keeping this notebook in your hand?"

"Since it is useless, I think it is better to just leave it with me so that I can preserve the relics left by my senior brother and keep it as a reminder. I also miss my senior brother very much." Master Hui Jing replied.
