Chapter 47: The Funeral

Yang Fan's eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was afraid that tears would flow out inadvertently, he had seen too many lives and deaths, but he had not seen the death of the people he cared about, Ji Yun took care of him like a grandfather, but Ji Yun suddenly said that he was going to die, which was a very big blow to Yang Fan.

"The two of you are the youngest, and the other four are all the age of Zhou Guomin, you can also ask them for help when you see them in the future, for my sake, they will try their best to help you, Ya'er, those people, wow, I won't tell you their names, anyway, they are not good people, you should try not to associate with them in the future!" When he said this, Ji Yun showed a wry smile, because he felt that in the end, Yang Fan would still have some intersections with those four people, maybe he could become partners, maybe he could become enemies, but after all, things in the future were not something he could control.

"If one day there is a conflict between you, if you can win, I hope that you will not embarrass either of them, and of course you don't need to think about the old love if necessary."

Listening to Ji Yun's words, Yang Fan was confused, looked at Ji Yun suspiciously, and swore and said, "Grandpa Ji, don't worry, I will never have any contradictions with them!" ”

Hearing Yang Fan say this, Ji Yun shook his head slightly, without words.

Yang Fan thought that Ji Yun didn't believe it, so he couldn't help but raise his hand and swear: "Grandpa Ji, I can swear!" ”

Ji Yun hurriedly stopped his stupid behavior, and said seriously: "Don't swear, let's not talk about this matter, let's talk about Ya'er, although Ya'er is Zhou Guomin's daughter, he is the one I brought up, and she has been here to accompany me every day since she was a child, so you must remember to take care of her!" ”

"Hmm!" Yang Fan replied seriously.

"There is one more thing, and the most important thing, can you help me protect someone after you complete the task of protecting Mengyun?" Ji Yun said, his eyes suddenly darkened, and continued: "He is my daughter, called Ji Yunyue, I hope you can protect her for the rest of your life, even if she is at fault, I also hope that you can take care of him!" ”

Yang Fan did not hesitate and nodded directly.

When Liu Mengyun came back, he was holding two jars of wine.

The three of them sat together, drinking silently and chatting about family life.

The wine in Jiulong Township is very strong, it is easy to get drunk, Yang Fan drank a few glasses and got drunk, his eyes were red for a moment of drunkenness, and he returned to his stone building with the support of Liu Mengyun.

The sky was overcast, lightning streaked across the sky, and torrential rain poured down.

The sound of the rain was like someone shedding tears, and the whole Kowloon Township became unusually quiet, only the weeping rain slapped on the ground.

In the afternoon, the rainstorm finally stopped, the potholed roads were covered with rain, and a faint rainbow appeared in the sky, which gradually faded and disappeared as the breeze blew.

Yang Fan woke up, looked outside worriedly, and said, "Mengyun, let's go to Grandpa Ji's house to have a look?" ”

Liu Mengyun nodded, feeling a little uneasy, when she looked at Yang Fan, Yang Fan was also looking at her, the two stopped talking, and hurriedly ran towards Ji Yun's stone building.

When the two didn't run to the stone building, they faintly heard crying, and their hearts sank, feeling that something had happened to Ji Yun.

……

Ji Yun was very peaceful when he died, and even with a smile on his face, the people of Jiulong Township had expected his death, because everyone knew that Ji Yun was sick and did not have much time.

The sky slowly overshadowed, the night fell, there was not a single star in the sky, and the wind was raging, blowing the whole world trembling.

According to the customs of Jiulong Township, Ji Yun will be buried tomorrow, and tonight is the time to wake the spirit, because Ji Yun has no children, so the people who guard the spirit are Yang Fan and Liu Mengyun.

In the mourning shed, a mahogany coffin was placed in the middle, and in the innermost part of the mourning shed was a white and black photo of Ji Yun, and Ji Yun on the photo was smiling.

Yang Fan and Liu Mengyun knelt in front of the coffin, silent, and the spirit shed was unusually quiet, only Liu Mengyun's slight sobs.

Liu Mengyun experienced the death of her relatives in front of her for the first time, although she and Ji Yun had not known each other for a long time, Ji Yun treated her like a granddaughter and took great care of him.

Yang Fan's eyes were slightly red, but he didn't cry, he looked at the coffin silently, without saying a word, his brain was blank, as if he had lost his soul.

Ji Yun's death only brought a blow to Yang Fan and Liu Mengyun, and the people of Jiulong Township only felt sorry for this somewhat weird old man.

Zhou Guomin handled Ji Yun's funeral, although he had no contact with Ji Yun, but his daughter Zhou Ya regarded Ji Yun as his own grandfather, he didn't know whether to tell his daughter the news of Ji Yun's death now, he was originally going to ask Yang Fan, but now Yang Fan's mood made him discouraged, and he didn't dare to come forward to ask.

"Are you afraid?" Yang Fan looked at Liu Mengyun and asked.

Liu Mengyun shook her head seriously and didn't speak, this is her relative, why should she be afraid.

Slowly getting up, Yang Fan said in a deep voice: "Uncle Zhou is probably too busy, I'll help." ”

Leaving the spirit shed, Yang Fan saw Zhou Guomin wandering nearby. Zhou Guomin also saw Yang Fan, hurriedly ran to him, and asked with concern, "Are you okay?" ”

"It's fine!" Yang Fan looked around and said in a low voice: "Uncle Zhou, don't tell your daughter the news of Grandpa Ji's death, it will be too late for her to come back, and when the funeral is over, I will go to her with you." ”

Zhou Guomin nodded, and then discussed the funeral with Yang Fan, and the two began to get busy.

The next day, at eight o'clock, the people in the village gathered at the door of Ji Yun's house, and the funeral could be regarded as the beginning.

Eight people carried the coffin, 100 people wore white clothes, held various paper wreaths, and the paper tied villains and vehicles slowly walked forward.

The ground was covered with rough earthy paper, which fluttered in the wind and plunged the whole village into mourning.

The funeral ended quickly, and everything returned to calm, only Yang Fan and Liu Mengyun were in a lower mood, but this sadness would slowly fade over time.

Soon after Ji Yun died, Yang Fan was ready to leave, and he left with him, in addition to Liu Mengyun, there were also Zhou Guomin and two young men and two young girls.

The smell of the city is indeed special, the air here is dull, the dense flow of people makes people become distracted, and perhaps only in the early morning can there be a feeling of comfort in the city.

Yang Fan asked Xia Yue to arrange a place for four young men and women near Wuliu Street, they followed Yang Fan, the purpose was to follow Yang Fan to the city to see, of course, to help Yang Fan take care of business, although they don't know anything now, but they will slowly learn in the future.

After arranging the four of them, Liu Mengyun also left, and she didn't come back for such a long time, she had a lot of things to deal with. Yang Fan took a taxi to Nanshan University to visit Zhou Ya.
