"Cremated." Zhu Guangsheng lowered his head and thought for a long time, and said a suggestion that Zhu Yuenuan had made to Chu Yitong before.

"It's only like this, it's been a few days, and I'm afraid it's even more inappropriate to help the coffin go back." Zhu Guangyu seemed to be in good spirits for a long time, and his tone was quite casual.

"What about when you go back? Where to be buried? Zhu Qinglian looked at Zhu Guangsheng cautiously and asked the most important words.

Zhu Guangsheng did not speak.

Yang Muping looked at him, then at Zhu Guangyu and Zhu Qinglian, and asked softly, "What do you mean?" ”

"What does the eldest brother say, we will do it, listen to the eldest brother." Zhu Guangyu replied without the slightest hesitation.

Zhu Yuenuan pursed her lips and glanced at Chu Yitong who was standing beside her.

Chu Yitong smiled at her, and quietly raised his hand to caress her back to show comfort.

"No matter what, you have to ask your aunt's opinion, right? After all, it was my aunt who supported our family in those years. Zhu Qinglian glanced at Zhu Guangsheng again and continued, "Or...... Didn't you say that the people over there were looking for him? Or, ask? ”

"What do you mean?" Zhu Guangsheng looked up at Zhu Qinglian fiercely, his tone was heavy, and his obvious anger overflowed.

"I ...... I'm just talking about it. Zhu Qinglian was startled, explained in a low voice, and avoided Zhu Guangsheng's gaze.

"If you don't want to care, then don't care, I'll take care of it alone." Zhu Guangsheng stood up and announced in a stiff voice, "I don't need to go into the ancestral grave of the Zhu family, I will spend my own money to find a place to bury him in Langui Town." ”

"What did the eldest brother say, we didn't say anything, isn't this a discussion." Zhu Guangyu immediately stood up, blocked Zhu Qinglian behind him, put one hand behind him, and waved at Zhu Qinglian again and again to stop him. While smiling at Zhu Guangsheng, "Even if you can't enter the ancestral tomb of the Zhu family, you can't be in Langui Town, besides." This is done, and there will be a hundred years from now. ”

"Hmph, isn't that fair? I'll do one, and you can take care of one. Zhu Guangsheng said angrily.

"Sir, what are you talking about? My mother-in-law is still healthy. When Yang Muping saw it, she immediately stepped forward and grabbed Zhu Guangsheng's arm and persuaded softly, "What my sister-in-law said is also the truth, don't be angry." ”

"Daddy." Zhu Yuenuan looked at Zhu Qinglian's absent appearance, pursed her lips slightly, and walked over, "Now is not the time to say this, besides, what my aunt said is not unreasonable." ”

Zhu Guangsheng looked at her sideways, and then glanced at Chu Yitong behind her. After a slight restraint, he asked, "What do you think?" ”

"Me?" Zhu Yuenuan was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting this matter to be asked to her.

"yes, what are you going to do with this if we don't come this time?" Zhu Guangsheng nodded.

"What if...... I'm going to be cremated, and when it's time for the gate, I'll send my grandfather back. Zhu Yuenuan said seriously, "I don't know what happened before, but I know that grandpa has actually regretted it." Every year on Chinese New Year's Eve, he would look in the direction of his hometown and drink, as well as the two letters left by his grandfather, and all kinds of signs of this time. I believe that even if you can't enter the ancestral grave of the Zhu family, as long as you can return to Zhujia Village, your grandfather will be happy, even if the ashes are sprinkled into the mountains, forests and rivers. ”

"Then cremation." Zhu Guangsheng nodded, and said the truth.

The cremation site was chosen on a mid-mountain rock on Longscale Mountain. Wu Baihuai's dedication in the door, remember a lot of people, the day of the selected day, the people of the gate have heard the news, several old people who know how to chant also rushed over with the help of the juniors in the family.

The fire, devouring the tall wood rack, instantly rolled up the black acacia.

Zhu Yuenuan stood aside and looked sadly at Wu Baihuai in the fire.

Chu Yitong silently supported her, paying attention to the changes in the fire.

All around, Shi Cheng and Yuecha each led people scattered around, both holding thick wooden sticks in their hands, paying attention to the occasional sparks that rolled up and scattered, and stepped forward from time to time to extinguish them, spreading with fire prevention.

Zhu Guangsheng stood with his hands in his hands, calmly looking at the smoke curling above the fire, not knowing what he was thinking.

Zhu Guangyu carried the fire on his back, lowered his head and raised his sleeves to wipe his eyes from time to time.

Zhu Qinglian was silent, but she kept her head down and shed tears, accompanied by Yang Muping and Li Yuniang.

Behind them, Ah Nong and the others couldn't help wiping their tears.

The pyre burned for two hours before it gradually went out.

Zhu Guangsheng and Zhu Guangyu, under the guidance of the old people, picked up the bones that had not cooled one by one and placed them in the wooden coffin in order.

Suddenly, the ground trembled.

Zhu Yuenuan was stunned, and turned her head sharply to look into the distance.

Shi Cheng had already quickly knelt down, his ears on the ground listening to the movement, and after a moment, he jumped up and hurriedly replied to Chu Yitong: "My lord, it seems that the cavalry is coming this way." ”

"Cavalry?" Chu Yitong looked up at the east with a solemn expression, "Go back to the city immediately." ”

"It's too late." Zhu Yuenuan looked into the distance, only to see that a line of black spots had appeared over there, and it was rushing towards the gate, she thought slightly, and turned her head to look at Chu Yitong, "You quickly take them to avoid Longscale Mountain, and I will go back to the city to inform Senior Brother Bu to defend against the enemy." ”

"No, if you want to go back, I'll go back, you take them ......" Chu Yitong hurriedly grabbed her hand.

"Wait until you go down the mountain and into the city, they'll already be there." Zhu Yuenuan frowned, "Moreover, this time the enemy attack came so suddenly and so quickly, it must be the hands and feet of those people, if you go back, once you are trapped, the situation will definitely be more difficult, it is better to take them to retreat into Dragon Scale Mountain first, there are wolf soldiers guarding here, and ...... My brother and I will be able to wait until you bring back reinforcements. ”

"Miss, I'm with you." Yuecha quickly swept over and looked at Zhu Yuenuan calmly.

"You stay." Zhu Yuenuan shook her head and looked at Yuecha seriously, "Those people don't know if it's in the city or the mountains, you have to protect their safety." ”

"But ......" Yuecha frowned, and wanted to say more.

"There are senior brothers, goods stores, and Liang family firms in the city, and it is not a problem to support them for a few days." Zhu Yuenuan interrupted her, but looked straight at Chu Yitong, "In terms of strategy, maybe I can't compare to you, but in terms of kung fu and defending the city against the enemy, I have more advantages than you, Yu Zhi, you also know, this battle is unusual, you can make a difference in the mountains than in the city." ”

"......" Chu Yitong looked at her deeply, and only after a long sigh did he whisper, "Be careful." (To be continued.) )
