Chapter 174: Funeral
The room is not big, the mourning hall is located in the hall, when the two entered, there were already many people gathered on both sides to talk, so many people talked at the same time, almost all of them covered the sound of mourning, there was no solemn sense of funeral, and most of them talked in Mandarin, from the appearance of the majority of Chinese.

The appearance of the two did not attract much attention, and the eyes that came over basically fell on Lu Ci, although Yunli was unhappy, but there was nothing to be done, according to the teachings of the clerk, the two came to the front of the mourning hall, first found the family group on the right, and sent out the silk gold. In fact, there are only three people in the family group, two men and one woman, the younger two should be the godson and goddaughter-in-law of Old Man Mo, and the other old man is the servant of their family.
After the godson took the gold, he saluted the two and asked, "Are the two of you friends of my father?" ”
"Yes, we rushed over by accident when we received news from Mo Lao, but unfortunately we couldn't even see him for the last time, I don't know when his old man passed away?" Yunli asked.
"The person who passed by in the early hours of yesterday morning, according to the custom, was supposed to let relatives and friends see the body before it could be cremated, but because the weather was too hot and his old man's body decomposed too quickly, he could only be cremated in advance, leaving the ashes in the mourning hall for everyone to mourn, which is really ashamed." The godson replied.
He is not much older than Yun Li, he looks ordinary, although he is ashamed, but his attitude towards people is a little indifferent, and he doesn't seem to be very willing to say more, his wife is burning paper money on the side, and the old maid has been keeping his head down, kneeling there motionless, he looks like he is in his seventies, and kneeling for so long is really worrying for him.
"Please mourn, we bow to Mo Lao." Seeing that his godson was not very willing to deal with people, Yun Li had nothing to ask, and after saying a word of comfort, he and Lu Ci came to the center of the mourning hall, bowed three times to the last photo and urn of this old man, and then retreated to the side.
"He should be Mo Lao, the photo is somewhat similar to the Mo Lao in my memory, it shouldn't be wrong." Without waiting for Yun Li to ask, Lu Ci spoke, a little emotional, his eyes turned red, and tears kept rolling in his eyes.
"It turns out that this Mo Lao's real name is Mo Chen, he is sixty-nine years old, and he was born in the southwest region, we can go back and check this carefully, and see if there are any people related to him, and we will definitely be able to help you find other clues." The general information of Mo Lao is written on the spirit tablet next to the urn, which is very concise, and there is not much useful information.
"Mo Lao is probably related to me, he is my only relative, I can't think of it now... Woo..."Lu Ci finally couldn't help crying, this cry immediately attracted more attention, among the people who came to the funeral, I really didn't see any of them who were red and sad, even Mo Lao's godson and daughter-in-law had an indifferent look.
Yunli hugged Lu Ci tightly in his arms and comforted: "Your so-called 'relatives' are all in the past, I am your future, your all, and we will be relatives in the future, the closest people, so don't be sad anymore, okay?" ”
Yun Li's comfort had a very good effect, Lu Ci quickly stopped crying, but he was still red and tearful, it seemed that he was really sad, which made Yun Li feel a little sour, and unconsciously hugged her a little tighter.
After being curious, everyone turned their eyes and topics back to the original place, and they were talking about something in a whisper, but there was only a pair of eyes, which had never left her since Lu Ci cried, and this detail was very clear.
The man was still staring at this place, without the slightest intention of moving away, Yun Li was a little uncomfortable, so he turned his head to the family group, and looked directly at the pair of eyes that were staring at him, the other party was shocked when he saw Yun Li's gaze, and immediately lowered his head and retreated, and continued to pose as he had been doing before.
In just a short moment of looking at each other, Yun Li noticed the clue, he secretly released electromagnetic force to investigate around, and finally found something interesting, and the corners of his mouth were unconsciously curved, if Lu Ci saw him like this, he knew that he must be thinking about bad ideas, and someone was going to be unlucky.
The man couldn't help but glance at this side again, and saw Yunli's falcon-like eyes, the most intuitive feeling was that he was creepy, not exaggerated at all, as if his secrets could not escape the detection of these eyes, this feeling made him quite uncomfortable, if there was any movement now, it would be more suspicious, so he had to hold on and not dare to look at this side again.
"We haven't eaten lunch yet, so let's go and eat the packed noodles first, they won't taste good if they're cold." Yun Li saw that Lu Ci's mood was a little more stable, so he proposed.
"I don't have an appetite to eat, if you're hungry, I'll go with you." Lu Ci replied softly, now she really can't eat anything, and she doesn't know why Yunli suddenly changed her mood, and she can see from his eyes that she seems to have encountered something that interests him, just like a falcon has found its prey.
"If you don't have an appetite, eat a little, you haven't been done for a long time, if you don't eat more, your body will be weak quickly, and I'll tell you a newly discovered secret after eating obediently." Yunli followed the path and threw out his killer move.
After Lu Ci heard this, she was not in a hurry to ask what the secret was, she knew that Yun Li would tell her sooner or later, so the two of them found a table with a vacant seat outside the hall and took out the noodles brought by the package to eat, although Lu Ci had a bad appetite, he also ate some under Yun Li's supervision, and the rest was all eaten by Yun Li, and none of them were wasted.
"Let's go, it's useless to stay here, let's go back to the manor." After seeing Yunli finish eating the noodles, Lu Ci opened his voice to propose.
There was mineral water for entertaining guests on the table, Yun Li also took two bottles unceremoniously, drank half of the bottle in one go, unscrewed the other bottle and handed it to Lu Ci, and replied: "The show hasn't been staged yet, let's continue to wait, if you are tired, rest on me, and I will call you when the show is staged." ”
Lu Ci heard it in a fog, and he didn't know what Yunli had found, his eyes were not quite right from just now, and he said that he had a secret to tell himself, she was just about to open her mouth to ask what was going on, when another group of people walked in outside the gate, and as soon as the leader entered the door, he stopped his eyes on them, to be exact, he stayed on Yunli, and after being surprised, he hurriedly walked over:
"Little brother Yunli, why are you here, according to your old saying, it's really a place where you don't meet in life, haha!"
"Boss Qi, don't come unharmed, how is the recovery from your injuries?" The leader was actually the boss of Qi Shiqi who had entered the Meili Snow Mountain with him a few weeks ago, and Yun Li couldn't guess why he was here, so he immediately stood up and greeted him, and asked about his injury.
"It's almost good, it's not a big problem, but I'm old, my recovery is slow, and I can't accept old age, but you and Mr. Wang are still dumb, and you can survive being trapped in the snow mountain for so many days, and it really makes me lie on all fours." Seeing Yunli Qi Shi was very happy, and replied in Mandarin with a strange intonation and accent, he was originally Burmese, and it was inevitable that he would not use the idiom well.
It seems that Wang Chengyuan did not reveal the matter of the three of them going down to the ancient tomb, and Qi Shi did not know that they were actually trapped in the ancient tomb during the time they were missing, but this was also a correct decision, that ancient tomb is too weird, the fewer people who know, the better, so as not to be in trouble, on the dumb side, presumably Wang Chengyuan has also done the work, and he is here, Wang Chengyuan knows his character very well, and he knows that he has a very dense mouth, so he will not do much.
"It's okay, I see that you've lost a lot of weight this time, and I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing?" Seeing that Qi Shi was a little thin now, compared to his previous strong and somewhat fat figure, Yun Li couldn't help but tease.
"Hehe, it's a blessing in disguise, my little belly has been collected a lot now, and the clothes that didn't fit before can be turned out and worn, saving the family a lot of money, by the way, why are you here?" After laughing, he got down to business.
"We're here to wait for someone, but he hasn't shown up yet, so we have to continue to wait, Boss Qi's purpose won't be the same as ours, right?" Yun Li said casually, and also asked about Qi Shi's intentions.
Qi Shi's appearance has caused a lot of people to discuss, it seems that many people know him, but seeing that he is already talking to others, he didn't come over to say hello for the time being, Yunli knows that his family is in the jade business, and the scale is not small, he is quite powerful in Myanmar, and it is natural that he has a wide range of contacts, he even appeared at Mo Lao's funeral, it seems that this scene is getting more and more interesting.
"You wait here, I'll catch up with my old friend, little brother, let's talk in a corner where no one is there." After Qi Shi gave an order to the few people behind him, he proposed to Yun Li, and took the lead in walking over.
Yun Li was disrespectful, took Lu Ci's hand and followed, Qi Shi looked around, the conversation here would not be heard by others, but seeing that Yun Li had brought the female companion around him, he was puzzled: "I almost forgot, is this flower-like girl your girlfriend, tell me about it." ”
"Her name is Ah Ci, she is my girlfriend, Boss Qi may as well say it directly, we are all measured people, you don't have to worry about this." Yun Li could see that Qi Shi had concerns, so he gave him a brief introduction, and then spoke out to dispel his doubts.
Lu Ci has been led by Yun Li since just now, and she doesn't know who this Qi Shi is, what kind of thing he wants to talk about, listening to them talk about entering the snow mountain, she guessed that she should have met during that journey that frightened her, but she trusted Yun Li unconditionally, so she obediently followed behind him, and nodded to Qi Shi to show politeness.
