Chapter 585: Funeral
"Where's the old patriarch?" As soon as he entered the room on the old patriarch's side, Shen Xi's eyes were already unconsciously red, and the tears of the earth and the earth smashed directly to the ground.
This room is full of familiar people, and Lu Qingyi is among them. Lu Qingyi came over and grabbed Shen Xi's hand: "The old patriarch is still inside, what ceremony is Elder Chu Han holding." ”
Shen Xi nodded and suddenly stopped talking, when they saw the old patriarch yesterday, they already had a little guess about the state of the old patriarch, but they didn't expect it to come so quickly.
"According to the custom here, a person is buried within three days of death." Lu Qingyi took Shen Xi's hand and walked to the side, whispering close to her ear.
In their Chu country, after a person dies, he has to stay at home for a few more days, and he must get past the first seven. Legend has it that the soul does not leave for seven days after death, and it will follow the black and white impermanence to the underworld after the first seven days.
However, what Chu Han's people believe in is different from what Chu Guo believes, Shen Xi's eyes flickered slightly, and he looked at Lu Qingyi on the side: "Ruofeng has woken up now?" ”
"I woke up once, but soon fell asleep again." Lu Qingyi immediately knew what Shen Xi was thinking in his heart: "He is so seriously injured now, I think it's best not to let him know the news of the patriarch's death." ”
Shen Xi felt a little unbearable in his heart, although Ruofeng was not the grandson of the old patriarch, nor was he the real son of his apprentice. But after the two have been together for so long, the old patriarch has true feelings for Ruofeng.
Although Ruofeng usually looks gentle, he doesn't look like a particularly stubborn person. But Shen Xi knew that Ruofeng in his bones was very stubborn, and if he knew about it, even if he couldn't get out of bed, he would probably have to be carried to the scene.
"I'll go over and accompany Ruofeng, try not to let him know about this side of the matter." Shen Xi looked at Lu Qingyi in front of him and said slowly.
Lu Qingyi nodded, how much chaos is going to be at the funeral scene here, Shen Xi is different now, it is better to stay there in a safe place at home. Besides, Lu Qingyi is not at ease when others do things, and Shen Xi was the best choice in the past.
"How did you wake up?" As soon as Shen Xi entered Ruofeng's room, he saw Ruofeng trembling and putting clothes on him.
The wound on his chest had not healed in the first place, and it was even more torn under his movements, and traces of blood could be seen flowing out of his chest.
Ruofeng put clothes on himself and said slowly to Shen Xi, "Is there something going on outside?" I always felt like you were hiding something from me. ”
Shen Xi was stunned for a moment, the person who took care of Ruofeng had already gotten the news, so don't reveal anything to him. How can you look at Ruofeng's situation now, as if you know everything?
Shen Xi straightened his expression: "What are you talking about?" How can we have time to hide it from you? It's not that everyone wants you to lie in bed because you're seriously injured, so they don't want you to get out of bed. ”
"What you said is true?" Ruofeng paused slightly when he put on his clothes, and looked up at Shen Xi with hesitation in his eyes.
After all, he was a seriously injured person, and the act of putting on his clothes just now had already consumed a lot of his strength. At the moment, I can only collapse on the bed and gasp: "But I always feel that something is strange." ”
Shen Xi sighed and sat on the edge of Ruofeng's bed: "Don't think so much now, even if the sky falls, there will be people outside." What you can do now is to take good care of your wounds and then seek revenge on your enemies. ”
"You already know who hurt me?" Ruofeng frowned slightly.
Only then did Shen Xi remember that Ruofeng didn't know about Zhou Bohong and Min Nan dart hooking up. With a straight look, Shen Xi told Ruofeng the ins and outs of the matter.
Ruofeng listened to it, his face became extremely pale, and Shen Xi was shocked, it shouldn't be! Wakafeng doesn't look like someone who can be scared by such a thing. Beautiful
Sure enough, after Shen Xi said such a long list of things, Ruofeng turned to look at Shen Xi directly, and there were faint tears in his eyes.
"Shen Xi, tell me, is something wrong with the old patriarch?" Although Ruofeng is a questioning statement, it is very sure when it is said.
Shen Xi was shocked, and his eyes almost missed the filling.
"What's going on?" Shen Xi grinned: "I don't know where you heard the news from, don't think about it." ”
Fortunately, his heart is of high quality, Shen Xi secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but he still didn't dare to relax at all.
Ruofeng shook his head gently, tears had fallen from his eyes, and his face was full of paste: "Don't lie to me, I have already smelled the peach fragrance on your body, this kind of incense is in Chu Han, and only people above the elder level will use it when they die." ”
Shen Xi's face froze, she didn't calculate the current situation after all calculations, in the end, it was because she didn't understand Chu Han's customs, and she couldn't hide it now.
Shen Xi was directly silent and didn't speak, Ruofeng touched the tears on his face: "When will the funeral be held." ”
"Tomorrow." Shen Xi's voice sounded muffled, and he was a little unhappy that he had guessed his thoughts.
Ruofeng's voice had returned to its usual appearance, and he coughed, and a mouthful of blood stained the quilt red: "I want to attend tomorrow's funeral." ”
Shen Xi wanted to open her mouth to stop something, after all, wasn't that the purpose of her coming here today? But when he turned his head to look at Ruofeng's eyes, he couldn't say anything.
Forget it, if this kind of thing is put on himself, I'm afraid he will have to insist a lot more than him.
Early the next morning, white lanterns were hung at the doors of the entire Chu Han house, and there was also a small lamp at the door. This is Chu Han's custom, and it is also their heart to pay tribute to the patriarch.
Ruofeng walked in front in a white filial piety suit, and he could vaguely see that his chest was red. Shen Xi was not only a little worried when he saw this scene.
"Is he okay like this?" Towards Lu Qingyi beside him, Shen Xi whispered.
Lu Qingyi shook his head slightly, now Ruofeng has reached the brink of coma, and he is holding on to it with a breath of energy.
Finally finished the ceremony, Shen Xi pulled Ruofeng and wanted to send him back to the room. Ruofeng stubbornly waved his hand: "It's not over yet." ”
After the funeral, there is a feast, and as the new patriarch, it stands to reason that Ruofeng is indispensable. But for now...... His body is the most important thing.
Shen Xi shook his head helplessly, now he couldn't persuade him, so he could only sit on the side with Lu Qingyi, always paying attention to the movements over there.
Ruofeng knew that it was Zhou Bohong's means, his eyes had been looking for his movements, and suddenly he saw a figure walking towards Zhou Bohong.
It was far away, but Ruofeng still saw the man's eyes clearly, a pair of eyes full of dead silence and brutality, and he would never forget it after seeing it once......
