Chapter 44: Burial
After explaining the matter, he was about to leave, and when he saw that Xiao Zhiqi was still caring, "Persuade me." ”
Liu Ping'an walked next to Liu Shun, and with her shallow life experience, she really couldn't think of words to comfort Liu Shun.
She saw the words popping up next to the black line, on the fifth day of the fourth month, the stick killed the Wenhua Palace outside Dingxi Town.
It seems that it is going for revenge, the fifth day of the fourth month, which is tomorrow.
Youjun said: "Don't persuade here, the death line appears for the second time, and the gods can't save it." ”
Liu Ping'an returned to the inn, and it was almost dawn.
She bought the guest room at a good price and stayed in it for an hour.
The sky was bright, and Liu Ping'an heard seven horns blowing outside.
After all, she didn't know much about southern culture, so she got dressed and ran out in a panic, thinking that something was going on outside.
Hearing her open the door, Xiao Zhiqi, who had been vigilant next door, also rushed out.
"What's the sound outside?" Liu Ping'an asked Xiao Zhiqi.
Where does Xiao Zhiqi know? After all, he is not from the south, and in the past few years since he came to the south, he has been staying by the side of the lord of Jingle.
Still full of yawns came out to explain, "The seven trombones are mourning music, and they will only be blown when they are buried." ”
After saying that, Mancang still wondered, "Isn't the burial usually chosen in the evening?" ”
Liu Ping'an and Xiao Zhiqi immediately thought of Liu Shun.
"I'll call Xiaoman and them, let's leave early." Liu Ping'an came simply, since he couldn't help, it was better to leave quickly, and the province felt uncomfortable.
Xiao Zhiqi was very surprised, Liu Ping'an's strength last night seemed to be going to follow Liu Shun to Wenhua Palace, but then for some reason, he came back like this.
The group packed up their things and met in the inn lobby.
Xiao Er knew that they were leaving this morning, so he came early. When he opened the door, Liu Ping'an was already sitting waiting for him.
"The little boy got up so early." Xiao Er stuffed the wooden door into the corner, "I'll go to the backyard and bring your sheep." ”
When the warehouse came down, he was carrying a small package containing the new clothes he had just bought yesterday.
When he saw the package, Liu Ping'an remembered, "Dad, let's also buy some change of clothes." ”
As soon as Mancang came down, he pushed the east-facing window open, "Breathe, there is a musty smell in this room." ”
As soon as the window opened, several people could sing in the distance, "Ninety-seven, ninety-eight, ninety-nine, one hundred." Seal the coffin. ”
Mancang said: "Oh, it's really in the funeral." ”
Liu Ping'an wondered, "Before sealing the coffin, why do you have to count?" ”
"I don't know." Man Cang had only seen the excitement, but he didn't know why he was doing it.
Xiao Manniang still knows more, "The custom here is like this, I hope that the deceased can live a long life in the next life." It is to be counted by the elders of the clan, and as they are counted, they put cotton thread over the deceased. ”
After saying this, he heard a distant singing: "Spirit." ”
Xiao Er finally came out with the sheep, and he handed the old white in his hand to Xiao Zhiqi, "I asked Xiao Mi to feed it again." ”
"Thank you."
Xiao Zhiqi hugged the dog.
Liu Ping'an led the sheep.
Going out of the inn, walking towards the northwest exit, I came across a ready-to-wear store with an open door on the street, and Liu Ping'an went in and bought a few clothes at a high price.
I bought a lot of dry food on the street, and when I was about to get close to the exit of Dayu Town, there was a gust of wind.
The wind swept the paper money to them, and Xiao Manniang pulled Xiao Man to hide on the side of the road.
Liu Ping'an saw several people carrying a coffin, coming from a fork in the road, and it was Liu Shun who walked on the side of the coffin.
He kept his head down, not knowing what he was thinking.
No one cried, because Liu He had no children and nephews, only a group of mourners walking silently.
Walking in front of his head was the man who scattered the paper money, and it was a good day when he raised a handful of paper money and spread it, and the wind blew everywhere.
Liu Ping'an and others stopped behind the intersection and waited for the funeral procession to pass before leaving.
Xiao Manniang said, "Engong, let's wait a while before leaving." She glanced at the pedestrian in front of her, "It's too close." ”
"Okay." Xiao Zhiqi found a tea stall nearby, and several people went over to order a pot of tea and asked for a few snacks.
Mancang separated a glutinous ball, and saw that it was filled with bean paste, and he was very happy to share it with Liu Ping'an.
Unexpectedly, Liu Ping'an suddenly stood up.
The small ball in Mancang's hand almost fell, "Brother, what are you doing?" ”
Liu Ping'an took out ten copper plates from his sleeve pocket and put them on the table, "You sit here, I'll go over and take a look." With that, she chased after the group.
Xiao Zhiqi was about to chase after him immediately, and handed the milk dog in his hand to Mancang, "Look at the good things, I'll chase her." ”
Liu Ping'an chased the group out of the pass, and saw them going up a mountain again, Xiao Zhiqi caught up with her, and said angrily: "Have you forgotten your identity!" ”
"Uncle, don't be angry, don't you say there's no danger here." Liu Ping'an was still very cowardly when he saw Xiao Zhiqi angry, "I just want to say a few more words to Liu Shun." ”
"You don't remember what Youjun said yesterday?" Xiao Zhiqi is also the one who can hear Youjun speak.
"Of course I do." Liu Ping'an said.
Youjun showed his green figure, "If you really remember my words, don't say anything to Liu Shun, it's useless for you to say anything." ”
Liu Ping'an was particularly stubborn this time, "I only do what I can do, as for whether it is useful or not, I don't want to think about it." ”
After going up the mountain, I saw several people placing the coffin in the pit dug in advance, and the tombstone had been carved overnight, and it could be erected when the coffin was buried.
After the coffin was put down, several people worked together to quickly fill in the soil and place the tombstone properly.
Put the offerings you brought in front of the monument and burn them before burning them.
One person, even if it is completely gone.
Before the funeral person left, he also advised Liu Shun: "Brother Liu, let's open a little, there is still a long way to go." ”
Liu Shun stayed for the last, he sat in front of the tombstone and did not stand up for a long time.
Liu Ping'an walked in front of him, Liu Shun raised his eyes to look at her, "Little brother, are you here too?" ”
"I just happened to see it on the road."
Liu Shun touched it from his pocket and took out a tael of silver, and he said in a hoarse voice: "You borrowed me a tael of silver from the court, and I just returned it to you." ”
This money, Liu Ping'an is not easy to collect.
She took a few steps back and said, "I'm here to say a few words to you." ”
"You say."
"I know you want to avenge your sister with your own hands." Liu Ping'an said, "I also know that you are ready to die, and I support you in doing so." ”
Xiao Zhiqi, who was listening to the side the whole time, looked at Youjun, although Youjun had no eyes, Xiao Zhiqi still saw surprise on his green face.
Why did Liu Ping'an say this? Didn't she persuade Liu Shun to live well yesterday?
"A piece of advice to you, when you do it, don't be stupid enough to kill it from outside the door, you just pretend to be a believer, and then you will do it when you see their person in charge."
