Chapter 131: 174* The Dead Are Like Si
The difference between life and death is to be alive, the living can continue to enjoy life, taste the ups and downs, can cry, can laugh, can be sad and sad, can choose their own life, or choose to end their own life, while death leaves the deceased with no other choice but darkness and the end.
Death is like life in this world where warriors are respected seems a bit nonsense, there are people dying in battle all the time, scattered cultivators, families, sects, armies, and reapers of death everywhere, not that they despise the dead, on the contrary, they respect the dead more, but the cruel reality determines that the dignity of the dead can only be possessed by the victorious side.
The power of the Sheng family in the eyes of the people of Qincheng has been so strong that it is irreparable, in just three days, the Qin Bridge was doubled, the Fang City that originally belonged to the Wang family has been renewed, and the Fang City of the Sheng family is connected to the city, and the small family of the Sheng family is smiling and settled in the Fang City, so the merchants in the Sheng Family Fang City are prosperous and the flow of people is like a shuttle.
The martial artists of the six major cities continue to flock to Qincheng, not only for the enrollment of the Holy Martial Academy, but also on behalf of their respective families who want to take the opportunity to make friends with the Sheng family, and the family with the Immortal King is definitely a leader in the six major cities.
Although Qincheng is the best location in and out of Qifeng Mountain among the six border cities in the southwest, many warriors deliberately avoid this city, not that the warriors have opinions on Qincheng, but the spirit beast crystal nucleus purchased by the Fang City here, the demon beast inner pill and the high-level elixir will all change hands again to Lin City, and the pills required by the warriors are also pitiful, and some can't even buy them at all. In this way, it is even more cost-effective for them to trade directly from Lin Cheng.
Since the Qin family's auction appeared against the heavens of the innate Dan, people from all walks of life began to shift to Qincheng, the battle of the Sheng King, the Sheng family appeared Immortal King Ancestor, this is the biggest security guarantee, not to mention that the Danhui has spread the news, Qincheng's Danhui branch is about to open, which is to push Qincheng to the cusp, Danhui, Fang City, the support of the Xianwang family, Qincheng has become a super transit station for the rise of the border city.
At this time, the Sheng family had no time to care about these, the work of Fang City was already on the right track, it would run on its own, and sending the deceased was the top priority of the Sheng family.
The family warriors who died in the battle of King Sheng have all been cleaned, the stumps and broken arms have been stitched well, and the remains and limbs of the warriors who cannot be found have been replaced with agarwood carvings, and they have been dressed up.
More than 80 black coffins were parked in the mourning hall set up by the Sheng family, and the plain white tent white and black coffins formed a strong contrast, and the atmosphere was even more depressing.
A long wooden table was lined with offerings and incense burners, and in the lobby was a plain Sheng family warrior.
Sheng Chunqiu walked to the coffin, he stroked them one by one, speechless but worth a thousand words.
No crying, no lamentation, not even a voice.
Sheng Shi is a little sad, but more is the firm heart to protect the Sheng family, at this time the Sheng family is thinking that they must be strong, they are even a little envious of the clansmen lying in the coffin, as a warrior, how rare it is to have a solemn funeral, for the sake of the family, in order to live, they have to continue to fight, maybe after they die, even the body can not be found, and even more maybe no one will remember them.
Sheng Jianming appeared silently in the mourning hall, his hand holding the green wood staff trembled a little, the loss of eighty-seven family warriors in the first battle, these will be the mainstay of the Sheng family in the future, but they are so gone for the Sheng family, although he has been used to seeing life and death in the long years, but he is still distressed, the Sheng family's one-third of the combat power has been lost, which makes it take a long time for the Sheng family's vitality to recover.
"Ancestor!" the Sheng family bowed and saluted.
"Excuse me. Sheng Jianming untied the wine jug tied to the green wood staff, poured a pot of wine in front of the spirit, and said heavily, "Go all the way!"
"The wind is sluggish and the water is cold, and the strong man will never return. Sheng Jianming staggered away from the mourning hall, leaving only a tragic voice echoing.
Sheng Chunqiu looked around at everyone and said, "They are all heroes of the Sheng family, and their exploits will always be recorded on the genealogy of the Sheng family." Although we are all grieving, we don't have time to grieve, now the Sheng family is unprecedentedly brilliant, but also unprecedentedly weak, we lost thirty percent of the elite warriors in this battle, this blow to the family can be said to be fatal, there is not much time left for you, you must rise quickly and take on the heavy responsibility of protecting the family. ”
"Yes, Patriarch. The Sheng family shouted loudly.
"Sheng Shi, you are the young patriarch, you can say something to see you off. Sheng Chunqiu said.
Sheng Shi nodded, stepped forward, and said, "The dead are all dead, and I don't need to repeat their exploits, I want to say a few words to the living, in front of these dead souls, let the souls of these heroes be a witness."
Almost all of these people lying in the coffin were innate martial artists, and the family had paid too much to cultivate them, but they all failed to live up to the family's cultivation.
The sacrifice for the family is admirable, but the family cultivates them to let them live to protect the family, not to let them sacrifice their lives.
I hope you can all remember that the Sheng family is to live to protect the family's prosperity, not to exchange their lives for the existence of the family, everyone is dead, what is the use of leaving an empty shell of the family.
I am a second-grade pill master, this is not to show off, but to tell you that from now on, the pills below the second grade will be open to you in supply, provided that you must exchange them for family contributions. As long as they are martial artists who have cultivated to reach ninety percent of the day after tomorrow, they will go to the Great Elder and the Fourth Elder to be assessed, and once they pass, they can obtain an Innate Pill.
In addition, the Sheng family will also select excellent warriors from our vassal families to cultivate, as long as they are loyal to the Sheng family and can fight for the life and death of the Sheng family, we will treat them equally and provide the same treatment as the family warriors. ”
"Okay!" the fourth elder Sheng Tianliang said, "This matter will be left to the old man and the eldest elder, and the young patriarch can rest assured." ”
"Young patriarch rest assured. The Great Elder said, "The Fourth Elder and I will do our best. ”
"That's all I say, father. Sheng Shi said, "Raise the spirits, let them be in the ground." ”
"Spirit!" Sheng Chunqiu said.
The black coffins were carried onto the hearse one by one, and eighty-seven coffins were carried out of the Sheng family by eighty-seven hearses, and walked along the main street of Qincheng towards the south gate.
The streets and alleys of Qincheng were full of lively people, they talked about the tragedy of the battle that day, and at this time he would still say, don't believe you, there is still a residual smell of blood in the air.
"Go all the way!" Qin Cheng's armor soldiers stood on both sides of the street to see them off, their mighty armor tied with white veil.
Qin Hao set up a white shed for road sacrifices at the south city gate, and out of the city gate were the sacrificial sheds of various small families.
Sheng Chunqiu and Sheng Shi returned the salute one by one, and slowly walked to the cemetery outside the city......
