Chapter 187: The First Seven
Today is destined to be a lively day in Lufang, the dock of Lufang is crowded with people, and the streets of Jingxinfang are also overcrowded. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info because today is not only the day when the valve distributes money and food, but also the first seven ...... of Lu Jian
These days, under the unremitting efforts of the Council of Elders, the attention of the clansmen to the cause of Lu Jian's death has reached the point of no return. Those people repeated it over and over again among the clansmen according to the designed lines, not to mention that the effect was really good, and many clansmen began to believe that Lu Jian's crime was imposed on him by the lord of the valve, and he was just a victim of the struggle.
Even if someone objected, saying that Lu Jian first bought a murderer, and then personally assassinated his fellow clan, and he also connived at his son's lawlessness, he could not be regarded as a good person. Those people will also say that Lu Jian is unaware and forced. Everything he did was excusable, but he was a poor father, avenging his son and so on...... There are always a lot of arguments to defend Lu Jian. Where there is really no way to wash the white, I use the sentence 'the dead are great', and you can perfectly prevaricate the past.
More and more clansmen began to sympathize with Lu Jian. In addition, those people continued to talk about the good things Lu Jian had done, which made many people have a good impression of Lu Jian, far exceeding when he was alive.
As a result, in the past few days, there has been an endless stream of clansmen who come to Jingxinfang every day to mourn. In the past few days, the front of Lu Jian's former mansion has been piled up with things such as soul flags and plain paper flowers, so that the door is invisible. Wreaths have been from his gate, filling the entire Jingxinfang Street.
I don't know if those people were intentional or unintentional, they piled up a lot of paper people, paper horses and other spiritual weapons at the door of Lu Xin's house. Smoke the seven orifices of Lu Xiangqi, isn't this a curse to death? Seeing that the old man was angry, the guards hurriedly moved those dark weapons, but the next day, those dark weapons appeared at the door of his house again.
The guards originally thought that someone had done this on purpose to disgust their old man. They stood guard at the door in the middle of the night, trying to catch each other, but who knew that those paper men and paper horses were like they were alive, and no one did anything at all, so they moved to their doorstep by themselves. And there are ghost fires flickering around, and you can even hear ghost screams: 'Give me back my life, give me back my life......
The guards were so frightened that they all shrunk into a ball in the gatehouse. Although they are trained not to be afraid of death, it does not mean that they are not afraid of ghosts!
As a result, rumors soon spread among the clan, saying that this was Lu Jian's ghost who was blind to death, and was driving those underworld weapons in the underworld. also said that the first seven days were the night of the soul, and Lu Jian would come back to ask for the lives of Lu Xin's family, in short, the more it spread, the more evil it became, and the result was that those who didn't want to come to worship on the first seven days had to come over to burn incense and kowtow, begging Lu Jian's ghost to have grievances and revenge, and revenge, don't be angry with the innocent.

Around the hour of the hour, an excited shout came from the direction of the street: "The Great Elder has arrived!" The clansmen who were whispering looked at the street when they heard the sound, and sure enough, they saw several carriages with the emblems of the Presbyterian Church slowly driving to Jingxinfang.
The carriage stopped at the gate, not because the coachman didn't want to go inside, but because the crowd of people who had come to pay their respects had already filled the street.
A few of the younger elders got out of the car first, trotted in front of the big elder's car, and without the need for slaves, they set up the stool with their own hands, and opened the curtain of the car with their own hands.
The Great Elder's face, which was always stiff, appeared in front of everyone's eyes. Seeing the crowd in front of him, the Great Elder's face showed a subtle smile, and he raised his hand to everyone while saying to a few cronies beside him: "This is the people's heart. ”
"Yes, yes." A few cronies nodded and whispered to him: "There is still a good show ahead, the Great Elder will take a good look." ”
"Hmm." The Great Elder nodded with interest, and with the support of his cronies, he slowly walked towards the crowd. When they walked in front of the crowd, the faces of the Great Elder and the elders were already full of grief, and the grief was mixed with a trace of indignation, and they couldn't see the slightest sense of pride.
"Great Elder, Great Elder......" Wherever the Great Elder went, the clansmen flashed to the side, saluting and getting out of the way.
Lu Wen nodded to everyone with a serious face, and then came to the altar at the gate of Lu Jian's former residence, surrounded by a group of elders. But after that, Lu Wen didn't say a word, just stood there solemnly.
"Who is the Great Elder waiting for?" Seeing that Lu Wen looked like he was waiting for someone, the clansmen whispered.
"Who else can wait? Who else in the clan is qualified to keep the Great Elder waiting? "There are pre-arranged fellows, and they inspire the people.
"Then it's just the valve owner." Everyone suddenly realized: "Speaking of which, none of the Lord and the Eight Deacons came. ”
"It's too much, how can they not come to any of them!" The clansmen couldn't help but be filled with righteous indignation, the Great Elder and all the elders were here, what excuse did Lu Shang and the deacons have for not showing up?
Lu Xiang watched the reactions of the people with satisfaction, and when the voices of the people became louder and louder, and the emotions of the people became more and more excited, he pretended to sigh and nodded to an elder who served as the master of ceremonies. The elder stretched out his voice and announced the start of the ceremony, and the people in the field, under the leadership of the great elder, bowed their heads to express their condolences to Lu Jian.

The mournful music of Jingxin Fang can be faintly transmitted to the dock. But the people on the dock could no longer bother to listen to the mourning, for the ship of the Accounting House finally appeared.
"It's coming, it's coming!" Seeing several large ships flying the flag of this valve slowly approaching the shore, the people of the clan involuntarily squeezed forward.
The dock personnel, who were about to be squeezed into the water when the big ships stopped, quickly took the cables dropped by the ships and tied them firmly to the stone piles of the docks.
The clansmen looked at the big ships with their eyes, and then they saw several stewards of the Accounting Academy, surrounded by Lu Xin, the newly appointed deacon of the Duzhi Branch, appear on the deck.
Many clansmen who were close could already see Lu Xin's iron-blue face, and their hearts couldn't help but tighten.
"Ladies and gentlemen," Lu Xin hugged his fists to everyone and said in a deep voice: "In Xia Lu Xin, I have been acting for half a month at the order of the lord of the Accounts Bureau. ”
"I know ......" the clansmen didn't buy it and said: "No need to introduce yourself, hurry up and send food!" ”
"That is, when Lu Jian was here, he had never been delayed like this!" The people of the clan were so anxious that they had long lost their due reverence for their superiors. "Why do you only see grain ships and carts carrying money?"
"I'm sorry everyone, but I can only send food this month, not money." Lu Xin took a deep breath and said this earth-shattering sentence.
"What?!" One of the clansmen at the dock was stunned when they heard this, and many people couldn't believe their ears, and shouted at Lu Xin: "You say it again! ”
"This month, we can only send food, not money." Lu Xin cleared his throat and raised his voice a bit.
"Nonsense!" The clansmen were completely out of luck at this time, and with a bang, they exploded. They were stunned, and scolded Lu Xin, and in the blink of an eye, they had already greeted his eighteenth generation of female relatives. Ignoring the fact that everyone is an ancestor.
They are so angry, the family's expenses for a month, so many people's feelings and affairs, all point to this money!
"Lu Xin, you have just taken office, and you dare to cut off everyone's life? Believe it or not, everyone is sending you to Hades?! In the angry scolding, the clansmen rolled up their sleeves and stepped forward, but the guards of the Accounting Institute tried their best to prevent them from jumping onto the boat.
On deck, several stewards were frightened, eager to leave the ship immediately. Lu Xin was still as motionless as a mountain, only to see him carry the Heaven and Earth Fa, and the righteous qi of Haoran erupted, and the sound exploded in everyone's ears like thunder: "Everyone, please listen to me!" ”
