Chapter 309: Funeral
Early in the morning of the seventh day, the sun was still half-obscured.
"Fifth Master, Seventh Master, they're back!"
With the shouts of the gatekeepers, a large number of women and children of the Wu family poured out of the open courtyard gate, all of them showing excitement and apprehension, for fear that there would be no one missing.
On that day, Wu Liang returned with eight corpses, and the eight families were broken, and no one could withstand such a blow anymore.
swept over the exhausted Wu family one by one, and everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief, but Wu Liang's second aunt in the crowd changed her face drastically, and she jumped out and grabbed the arm of the fifth master and said sadly: "Where is my tiger!" ”
The seventh master's lips moved slightly, but he sighed lightly and couldn't speak.
Second Aunt Wu Liang's body suddenly softened, her eyes turned white and she was about to faint, but fortunately, the fifth master helped her and hurriedly said, "That kid from Erhu is fine, I'll be back later." ”
Seeing that the second aunt of Wu Liang, who was about to faint, recovered instantly, and said with a long sigh of relief: "The seventh master scared me to death, Huzi and his father left early, you said that if something happened to Huzi again, I would simply die." ”
As he spoke, he smacked a few more times, slapped his cheek, and said again and again: "Talking nonsense, the tiger is as strong as a calf, how can there be anything." ”
The fifth master and the seventh master were not in the mood to say much to her, and everyone looked at the white curtain in front of the door, and their eyes suddenly turned red.
"Lao Jiu, little madman, Gou Shun, Parkson ......"
After reading the names of these deceased children one by one, the tears in the eyes of the seventh master slowly dripped down, and he fell to his knees with a bang, and cried sadly: "We can't stand you, the old man can't stand you!" ”
The little five people next to him hurriedly helped the seventh master up, and the fifth master also comforted him: "Old Seven, don't be like this, otherwise Lao Jiu and they won't feel at ease when they leave." ”
"Fifth brother!" The seventh master burst into tears and cried: "It's all my old thing that drags everyone down, if it weren't for me, Lao Jiu and Parkson wouldn't have just left!" ”
The fifth master patted the seventh master on the shoulder, a trace of tears flashed in his eyes, recalling that the group of bastards suddenly attacked the Wu family's station that day, and the seventh master who chatted and farted with Lao Jiu and them on the periphery was the first to bear the brunt and almost fell, if it weren't for Lao Jiu and Baisheng who sacrificed their lives to save each other, I'm afraid that there would be one of the seventh masters lying in the courtyard today.
Being surrounded by the crying of the Seventh Master, there were bursts of low sobbing and choking among the returning Wu family and the women and children left behind.
After a long time, the fifth master wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes and shouted in a deep voice: "It's all quiet, the Wu family doesn't shed tears when they bleed!" ”
Glancing at the seventh master with blood-red eyes and tired spirits, the worried look in the fifth master's eyes flashed away, and he said: "Old Seven, now is not the time to be sad, business matters!" ”
The seventh master's face was full of sadness, but his spirit was perked up, and he said in a hoarse voice: "Yes, now is not the time for the old man to fall, this revenge will not be avenged, and the old man will not be willing to die!" ”
Everyone's spirits suddenly rose, and the fifth master was relieved when he saw this, and then he looked at Huang Zhong who went out to greet him and said, "I'm causing trouble to Brother Huang." ”
Huang Zhong shook his head again and again, and said in a low voice: "The family doesn't talk about two families, Fifth Master, now the business is important, and the Wu family is still waiting for you to preside over the overall situation." ”
The fifth master's face changed slightly when he heard this, and he reluctantly said, "What about Liangzi?" ”
"The third master has not returned yet, and the third dragon also went out not long ago, and he has not been able to contact him. Mr. Wu has locked himself in a secret room since his last return, and now the Wu family can be described as ......"
The group of dragons behind was leaderless, and the people were panicked Huang Zhong didn't say it after all, but how could the fifth master not understand, and suddenly frowned and said, "The three dragons are far away?" ”
Huang Zhong nodded, and the fifth master didn't ask again, but worried: "How is Liangzi?" ”
"I don't know, no one can get close to Mr. Wu's retreat room, but if Mr. Wu doesn't show up again, I'm afraid he will ......."
"I'm afraid of what!" The fifth master's voice suddenly rose, and he shouted angrily: "Could it be that those beasts dare to bully the door again!" Even if my Wu family is destroyed, I will never let those beasts please me! ”
Huang Zhong was rushed by the killing intent of the fifth master, his face turned pale suddenly, and the look of fear in his eyes flashed, such a strong killing intent, are these people angels who came down from heaven, or devils who returned from hell?
Recalling that when he was already congenital, these Wu family members were just ordinary mountain people, and now they are only in the realm of grandmasters, but these former native farmers have become Sanhua Venerables, and the world is really wonderful.
The jealousy in his heart flashed away, and he was soon left behind by Huang Zhong, seeing that the fifth master was angry, Huang Zhong hurriedly comforted: "Don't worry, Fifth Master, Huang is not worried that other people will not die, but is worried about Mr. Wu, no matter how strong the martial artist is, he can not enter the water for seven consecutive days, and he is sad, I am afraid that Mr. Wu will hurt his body." ”
The fifth master was silent for a moment, and then turned around and instructed for a long time: "You go to the mourning hall first, I'll go see Liangzi, don't forget the lesson this time!" ”
Ignoring the expectant eyes of his wife and daughter, he walked straight to the backyard.
……
Backyard, secret room.
When the fifth master pushed open the dusty iron door, a puff of smoke and dust rose in the secret room.
The fifth master's face did not change, he looked at Wu Liang who was still distracted in the corner, and said with his eyebrows: "Good boy, what are you doing, is it still the time to be in a daze?" ”
Wu Liang glanced up at the fifth master a little distractedly, laughed dryly a few times, and muttered after a long time: "I'm not in a daze, I'm just a little confused." ”
"What can't you figure out?"
"There are so many things I can't figure out, where do I come from? Did everything that ever happened really happen, or was Zhuang Zhou's dream of butterflies and a dream of Huangliang? Is it right or wrong for the Wu family to step into the martial arts, now this dead uncle and brother could have raised children and daughters in peace and lived a happy life, but now what is left is nothing more than the remains of the wrecked body......"
"Enough!"
The fifth master interrupted Wu Liang's rumors, and shouted with a gloomy face: "What can't you understand!" This world is about people eating people, if you don't eat others, others will eat you! Lao Jiu and they left, but they didn't regret it when they left! How can the men of the Wu family be greedy for life and afraid of death, men should be like this, even if there is no you, how can the life of the Wu family be good! ”
Ignoring Wu Liang's distraction, the fifth master said impatiently: "You said that the mourning hall was opened today, and the big guys are back, just waiting for you, don't you let Lao Jiu and them live in peace on the last journey?" ”
Wu Liang's mouth opened slightly, and he whispered after a long time: "You really don't blame me?" ”
In his previous life and present life, he has never been so lost, from beginning to end because of him, if it weren't for his provocation of sects everywhere, if it weren't for his arrogance, if it weren't for his recklessness and competitiveness, the Wu family would not have come to this point.
From the day Wu Sanlong brought him back, he continued to push the Wu family into the abyss.
The third master didn't know life and death, eight uncles and brothers died, and the others were injured and disabled, in fact, he should have expected all this.
But in the end, he couldn't avoid this tragedy, and he only brought back eight broken bodies, along with eight broken families.
"Less nonsense! Since you have walked this road, you naturally expected that there would be such a day, and the Wu family walked on this road not with you, but with the blood of our ancestors, it was the restless blood! We started as bandits, what life and death have you never seen, and this little setback will bring you down? ”
The fifth master had a cold face, gritted his teeth and snorted: "At the beginning, I and your third master had dozens of brothers, but now there are only a few of us left!" Could it be that they don't live long? Wrong, that's because our Wu family is not born to like to be peaceful, so they all died! ”
"The third child still regards you as the leader of the Wu family, if even you are defeated by this little setback, then our Wu family is not far from death!"
……
The fifth master became more and more excited, and in the end, he spoke even more violently, and he was almost about to come forward and beat someone.
Fortunately, Wu Liang was moved after all, and he didn't know if he was afraid that the fifth master would beat people or he really couldn't stand the fifth master's loud voice, Wu Liang patted his ass and stood up, wiped the spit on his face that was sprayed by the fifth master, and said dryly: "I figured it out, keep your old truth for next time." ”
After speaking, regardless of the fifth master's discolored old face, Wu Liang hurriedly walked out of the door.
……
In the open-air mourning hall, eight coffins are placed in a row, which looks a little infiltrating.
The wide field was full of young and old, and the Wu family wore linen and filial piety, looking at the warriors and dignitaries who came to worship with a strange silence.
Today, the funeral of the Wu family opened, whether it was a political dignitary or a martial arts family, the lords of wealthy families came to mourn.
Although there are many people, the field is quiet and a little abnormal, and even the sound of breathing can be heard clearly, and there is no abnormal sound at all.
When Feng Yi took the people of the Dragon Martial Arts Bureau to come forward to offer incense, Wu Liang, who had been acting as a sculpture, suddenly opened his eyes and said mechanically: "Director Feng, thank you for borrowing it!" ”
Feng Yi nodded reluctantly, and said dryly: "Tianzun doesn't have to be polite......
Before the words fell, he was interrupted by Wu Liang and said: "The deity is not polite, I just want to ask, why there are so many outsiders in this Dragon Pass this time!" ”
Feng Yi's face changed slightly, and when he saw that everyone around him was looking at him with a sympathetic gaze, he couldn't help but feel numb and said, "The old man doesn't know, Tianzun is probably asking the wrong person." ”
Wu Liang was noncommittal, just as he was in a dilemma, a pitch-black Tibetan Heaven Sword slowly walked from outside the door with everyone from the Shenwu Department, first bowed to a few coffins, and then whispered to Wu Liang: "Wu Liang, the festival mourns and changes." ”
Wu Liang nodded slightly, no longer looked at Feng Yi, looked at the Zangtian Sword, and said slowly: "Thank you for being old." ”
Although the Zangtian Sword did not help the Wu family, after all, it also let those people throw rat traps, otherwise it was the Wu family's mansion that was attacked, and the Wu family would probably be gone.
After he left that day, the strongest people of the Wu family were only a few left-behind grandmasters, if they were really raided, then the Wu family would become a rootless duckweed, and sooner or later they would be wiped out in this wave.
For Wu Liang's gratitude, the Zangtian Sword was also indifferent, and waited for Wu Liang to thank him before he said in a low voice: "If you have something to do at any time, and don't do it for many days, I'm afraid someone will really treat us as a decoration!" ”
Obviously, the old man saw some hidden dangers and inappropriateness from today's strange funeral, which was the intuition of the strong. rs
