Chapter 43: The Lights Go Out

"Jizong, if you count it, today should be the seventh day of our father's departure." Li Wentao said to Li Jizong as he walked into the curtain.

"Yes, today is the seventh day, and it's time for our father to return to the yang!" Li Jizong nodded and walked towards the curtain with Li Wentao.

After entering the white curtain and seeing that the ever-bright lamp in front of Li Youmin's body was still on, the two Li Wentao brothers breathed a long sigh of relief.

Then, Li Wentao walked to Li Youmin's corpse with a bowl of glutinous rice, and shouted Li Youmin's name while sprinkling glutinous rice around Li Youmin's corpse.

I don't know if Li Youmin heard it, but I know that after Li Wentao shouted for a while, the white curtain around Li Youmin's body began to float.

At the same time, from time to time, strange gusts of evil winds drifted into the curtain from outside.

After a few minutes, Li Youmin's fingers began to move.

"Wake up, wake up......" Li Jizong shouted happily after seeing it.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Li Youmin suddenly sat up and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Li Wentao's two brothers were shocked when they saw this, and seeing that Li Youmin was about to fall, Li Wentao hurriedly squatted down and supported Li Youmin's body.

Li Youmin didn't take a breath, and swallowed the breath of returning yang.

By the time Li Wentao and the two brothers probed Li Youmin's nostrils again, Li Youmin had already lost his breath.

"Brother, didn't you say that Dad can return the yang? Why can't my dad return the yang? Li Jizong looked at Li Youmin's corpse and asked angrily.

"This ......" Li Wentao looked at his dead father, and was also puzzled: "It doesn't make sense, I have obviously done it according to the ghost woman's soul restoration technique, why can't I let my father return to yang?" ”

Li Wentao muttered to himself as he glanced around.

Finally, the ever-bright lamp on Li Youmin's head caught his attention.

"No, the lights seem to have gone out!" Li Wentao looked at the lamp, and the expression on his face began to become solemn.

"Brother, how do you know that this light has gone out?" Li Jizong was a little surprised when he heard this.

"Jizong, you see, the fire at the wick of this lamp is flickering, and it is not at all like the one we first lit." Seeing that Li Jizong didn't understand, Li Wentao pointed to the everlasting lamp and said to him.

"What do you mean...... From the flickering of the fire, we can judge it? Li Jizong said in surprise.

"That's right." Li Wentao nodded, and then, Li Wentao said to Li Jizong: "The ghost woman has clouds, the fire is transformed by yang energy, and the soul is invisible. ”

Li Jizong nodded to Li Wentao, he didn't understand very well, and it was the first time he had heard about what Li Wentao said to him.

Seeing Li Jizong's realization, Li Wentao let out a long sigh: "Alas...... As soon as the everlasting light goes out, my father will rest! ”

"Who extinguished Daddy's lantern, who was it?" Knowing the news that Li Youmin could not be resurrected, Li Jizong was grief-stricken and looked up to the sky in front of Li Wentao and roared.

Li Wentao shook his head, just sighed, and asked Li Jizong to hurry up and arrange a funeral for Li Youmin.

Li Jizong nodded, and hurriedly ran to the front of the hotel and asked them all to stop their work, even me.

A few minutes later, the Li Zihao shop was closed, and our guys, big and small, helped with the funeral.

Two days later, Li Jizong spread the news of Li Youmin's death, and those relatives of Li Jizong hurriedly ran over after getting the news.

Because Li Youmin's body was parked for too long, the two Li Wentao brothers buried him on the third day of Li Youmin's failure to return to Yang.

After Li Youmin left, Li Wentao's brothers sold the Li store to others at a low price.

It is said that this is Li Youmin's will, and as for the reason for this, Li Wentao and his brothers do not know.

On the fourth day of Li Youmin's burial, in the Li store, the Li Wentao brothers began to pay the severance pay to the guys in the Li store one by one, even me.

However, I haven't gotten the second volume of the Ghost Woman's Secret Technique from Li Jizong, and I won't leave Li Jizong until I get the second volume of the Ghost Woman's Secret Technique.

While I was thinking about these trivial things, the guy in the front queue to receive the severance pay had already received the compensation he was entitled to, but I had not received it.

Li Wentao habitually grabbed the last bag of silver dollars on the plate and put it in front of me.

I was eager to get the bag of dollars, but I didn't reach for it.

Li Wentao frowned when he saw it: "They all took it, why didn't you pick it up?" Is it too little or what's the point? ”

I didn't answer Li Wentao, I just shook my head at him.

Just as Li Wentao was about to continue asking me, a young man suddenly walked in from outside.

The look on the man's face looked panicked, and when he entered the door, he said loudly to Brother Li Wentao: "Oh, Jizong, Wentao, why are you still here?" ”

"What's wrong? East extension? Li Wentao threw the bag of silver dollars in his hand directly into my hand, regardless of whether I wanted to take it or not.

Wei Dongyan walked in front of Li Wentao, frowned and said to Li Wentao: "The front-line army is defeated, and Xingyang County is about to fall, so come with me." ”

"When did this happen?" Li Wentao was shocked when he heard this, as far as he knew, Xingyang County was backed by mountains and lakes, and its geographical location was extremely superior, and in addition, Xingyang County had a strong defensive defense, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Under normal circumstances, no one can easily break through this line of defense.

"This morning's business." After Wei Dongyan finished speaking, he continued to say to Li Wentao: "I heard that there is a traitor in our Xingyang County, if it wasn't for the traitor who leaked the secret and told them about the path in the back mountain of our Xingyang County, they wouldn't have been able to enter Xingyang County at all." ”

After hearing this, Li Wentao began to panic, and hurriedly said to Li Jizong: "Jizong, you go with Dongyan first, and I will follow." ”

"Brother, I'm not leaving, I'm going to go together." Li Jizong stubbornly rejected Li Wentao.

After Wei Dongyan heard this, he immediately frowned and said to Li Wentao: "Yes, we want to go together." ”

Li Wentao shook his head at them: "No, my father said before his death, after he dies, he must do a ritual in front of his grave, and if he doesn't do it, I will never leave easily." ”

"Brother, when is this, you better hurry up and go with Dongyan." Li Jizong stepped forward to admonish again, trying to persuade him.

Li Wentao insisted on not leaving, and wanted to stay and do a ritual for Li Youmin.

......At this moment, the sound of artillery outside became louder and louder, and Xingyang County was about to be broken by the enemy forces outside.

Wei Dongyan couldn't bear it, and pulled Li Jizong away in a hurry.

Before Li Jizong left, Li Wentao secretly stuffed him with something, which was the first volume of the ghost woman's magic art.

Li Wentao has a good memory, and he has already written down the first volume of the ghost woman's secret art.

After seeing Li Jizong leave, Li Wentao laughed out loud with relief. As long as Li Jizong can pass on the ghost woman, he will be relieved.
