Chapter 769: Funeral Ceremony
Chapter 769: Funeral Ceremony
The general defending the city was afraid that these soldiers would anger Zhao Jingfeng, so that Zhao Jingfeng would kill at the gate of Daze City again, so he didn't dare to hesitate at all, and immediately jumped down from the city wall and trotted all the way to Zhao Jingfeng.
The young man in front of him is a strong person who is not even afraid of the Houtu family, and with the current strength of Daze City, he cannot afford to offend.
"This son, please be angry, please be angry, all of this is in the discipline of the next fine, so that the people below offend the childe, but in the next will be severely punished by the bastards who offend the son, I hope that the son will not remember the villain, do not be with these little people in general. The generals guarding the city hurriedly apologized to Zhao Jingfeng, with a flattering smile on his face and a respectful demeanor, for fear that he would accidentally offend the powerful man in front of him and bring disaster to Daze City.
The general guarding the city carefully observed Zhao Jingfeng's face, and then immediately turned his head to look at the soldiers around him, in the face of this group of soldiers, he would not be as respectful as he was in the face of Zhao Jingfeng, his face sank suddenly, and the momentum of the person who belonged to the superior immediately burst out, and shouted: "You blind bastards, you are rude to Gongzi, are you impatient, who offended Gongzi just now, immediately stand up and make amends to Gongzi!"
A group of soldiers hesitated for a while, and finally a pale soldier staggered out from behind, and on his chest, there was a very clear footprint, which was the soldier who was kicked out by Zhao Jingfeng before.
The general defending the city immediately walked over and directly kicked the soldier's buttocks, and scolded: "Don't you quickly kneel down and apologize to the son!"
The force of the general defending the city was extremely strong, and he kicked the soldier to the ground, and his whole body was lying at Zhao Jingfeng's feet, but there was not the slightest anger on the soldier's face, and there was only deep fear, and the matter had come to this point, so that he also understood that he had offended someone who should not be offended.
"Childe, it's all the fault of the lowly position, it's the fault of the lowly position, it's the lowly position that has no eyes, and it has delayed the precious things of the childe, please ask the son to have a lot, forgive the little one!" The soldier knelt beside Zhao Jingfeng and said in a mournful voice, but his heart was full of regret.
Zhao Jingfeng had a gloomy face, his eyes stared at the soldier coldly, what he experienced today had made his mood very heavy, and his temper had become very bad, when he carried Du Shi Niang's coffin into the city and was blocked by this soldier, Zhao Jingfeng really moved with killing intent, if it wasn't for the timely apology of the generals defending the city, I am afraid that the front gate of Daze City would have been bleeding a river.
At this time, Yang Zi came up from behind, gently pulled Zhao Jingfeng's left arm, and said softly: "Zhao Jingfeng, forget it! Don't worry about these little things anymore." ”
Yang Zi's words made the murderous aura emanating from Zhao Jingfeng's body finally slowly converge, his eyes stared coldly at the soldier kneeling in front of him, and he shouted coldly: "Get out!"
Seeing that the matter had finally calmed down, the general defending the city also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and then grabbed the soldier's clothes and lifted it up and threw it to the side, saying angrily: "Don't get out of here, don't stand in the way of the son here." Then he immediately put on a smiling face, and invited Zhao Jingfeng in with great enthusiasm: "Childe, please enter the city, please enter the city quickly, you won't delay Childe's precious time in the future, Childe will go all the way!"
Although there are rules in Daze City that it is forbidden to bring a series of inauspicious things such as coffins into the city, in front of Zhao Jingfeng, the generals guarding the city did not dare to mention this matter at all, and they reacted enthusiastically and invited Zhao Jingfeng in, with a respectful demeanor, for fear of offending people somewhere.
Zhao Jingfeng didn't say a word, and strode into the city with an expressionless face carrying Du Shiniang's coffin, his face was sad, and then, Du Qiuniang, Yang Zi, Chen Lingxiang, Wei Meng, and Du Sheng also followed behind with a sad face.
As a few people entered the city, the congested city gate was finally restored to unblocked, although there were already a lot of people blocked here, but the whole venue was quiet and silent, everyone looked at Zhao Jingfeng and the distant sound and shadow of the people with complicated and curious eyes, and their hearts were still in the previous shock, and they couldn't calm down for a long time.
In the eyes of these casual cultivators and merchants, the guards of every city are not to be offended, although the strength of these soldiers is not as strong as some scattered cultivators, but behind them is the official power of the Later Jin Dynasty, once there is a conflict with them, and there is no huge background behind them, then they can only wait to be wanted by the Later Jin Dynasty.
And the young man who was carrying a coffin before, not only wounded the soldiers defending the city, but even the generals who defended the city had to personally come to him to nod and apologize, this scene made everyone guess in their hearts, I don't know what the identity of the young man carrying the coffin was before, which made the generals guarding the city so afraid.
Zhao Jingfeng carried a wooden coffin covered with mud and swaggered down the street, which attracted everyone's attention along the way.
Carrying a coffin into the city is a very rare thing in Daze City! Because Daze City prohibits these things from entering, and can only be placed outside the city.
However, a few people immediately recognized that Zhao Jingfeng and the others were killing five young masters of the Martial Emperor realm outside the Daze Auction House, and their hearts were suddenly shocked, and then they looked at Zhao Jingfeng and the others, and their eyes were full of deep jealousy.
Zhao Jingfeng carried the coffin and quickly returned to the inn, as soon as he entered the inn, the maid looked at the coffin on Zhao Jingfeng's shoulder with a surprised face, and said with a sad face: "Guest officer, why did you bring the coffin in, our inn is forbidden to put these things, otherwise, you will scare the guests in our inn away." ”
Seeing the situation here, even the shopkeeper rushed over in person, and said with an embarrassed face: "Guest officer, you better put the coffin in another place! Our small shop can't store these things, otherwise, how can you let other guests stay in the hotel!"
Chen Lingxiang walked up from behind, grabbed a large handful of red gold ingots and threw them to the shopkeeper, and said coldly: "We have chartered this inn, those who are willing to live here will stay, and those who are not willing to live will let them get out of the way immediately, you don't talk nonsense here, get out of the way quickly." ”
Chen Lingxiang's large handful of red gold ingots is about a hundred, which is enough to cover the income of this inn for several months. Seeing that the other party actually came out with such a large sum of money, the shopkeeper immediately changed from a sad face to a smile, and hurriedly accepted the red gold ingots handed by Chen Lingxiang, and said: "It's easy to say, it's just a small thing, isn't it just a coffin, it's not a big deal, a few guest officers please quickly, please come inside." ”
After Zhao Jingfeng and the others disappeared at the staircase, the shopkeeper stood below and snickered with a large handful of glittering red gold ingots in both hands, and muttered: "These sons are really generous! These hundreds of red gold ingots are worth the income of my inn for several months, and they have made a lot of money, and this time they are a big profit!"
At this time, a casual cultivator who was sitting next to him and eating said to the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, you are really fearless and ignorant! You dare to accept their money, do you know who they are?"
"Of course I know, it must be the young master of a certain big family, otherwise how could there be so much money. The shopkeeper replied subconsciously.
"Let me tell you! Those young men were the powerhouses who had personally killed the leaders of the three major families in Daze City outside the Daze Auction House, and even the two Martial Emperors of the Houtu Family were killed by them......," the Sanxiu said.
Hearing this, the shopkeeper was shocked, "What, it would be them who killed the heads of the three major families in Daze City?"
The loose cultivator nodded affirmatively and said, "Yes, and the young man who gave you the money is still a master of the peak realm of the Martial Emperor, and he is only one step away from the Martial Sect." ”
The shopkeeper's legs were weak, and the whole person was paralyzed to the ground with fright, and muttered with a faceless face: "My God, I dare to take their money, and let them put things outside, I, I am tired of living." ”
......
Zhao Jingfeng and the others stayed in the inn for a day, and a day later, a team of all riding fourth-order desolate demon mounts came to Daze City, with a total of about fifty people, all wearing uniform black robes.
And the soldiers defending the city saw that this group of people were all riding fourth-order desolate demon mounts, and they didn't dare to stop them at all, and opened the city gate without even passing through the form of interrogation, allowing this group of people to enter the city smoothly.
This team of fifty people ran at a gallop on the streets of Daze City, and finally stopped in front of an inn, and then the person who walked in front immediately turned over and dismounted, entered the inn in a hurry, and came directly to the place where Zhao Jingfeng was resting to meet Zhao Jingfeng.
"I've seen the Lord Protector. The man came to Zhao Jingfeng and bowed, and said respectfully.
Zhao Jingfeng looked at the young man in a black Taoist robe in front of him, and said with a light smile: "Xiang Yu, you guys came quite quickly. ”
"Your Excellency the Protector Dharma King has an order, and his subordinates did not dare to hesitate at all, and immediately led an elite team to rush over. The man in the black robe replied that he was Xiang Yu who had arrived from the Southern Ming Dynasty.
"Go and have someone prepare a carriage! Then set it up and return to the Nanming Dynasty with my aunt's coffin. Zhao Jingfeng said flatly. If he wanted to bring Du Shi Niang's coffin back to the Nanming Dynasty, Zhao Jingfeng had to choose to pull it back in a carriage, because this was a kind of respect for his aunt Du Shi Niang, and transporting Du Shi Niang's body home was also a big deal, and it must not be handled vaguely, so Zhao Jingfeng took such a method.
After a while, a large carriage stopped outside the inn, and from the color of it, it was not difficult to see that it was a bright and brand-new carriage, very beautifully decorated, and full of flowers, as if it were a very luxurious float.
Subsequently, Zhao Jingfeng personally carried Du Shiniang's coffin and walked out of the inn accompanied by Du Qiuniang's group, and then gently put the coffin on the carriage.
The carriage was originally configured to pull the cart with two first-order desolate demons that had been replaced by nine-headed fourth-order desolate demons, and the pomp and circumstance could be described as very large, at least in Daze City, the scene of using a fourth-order desolate demon to pull the cart had never appeared.
After everything was arranged, everyone did not stay in Daze City for a while, and drove the carriage out of the city slowly, everyone chose to walk on foot, and the fifty elite squads who swept the ** legion on the fourth-order desolate demon also all held their mounts with their hands, like a loyal guard, guarding the carriage on both sides of the slow foot, causing passers-by to stop and watch, and there were many discussions.
Such a large pomp and circumstance was unprecedented in Daze City, which surprised the oncoming Sanxiu and caravan in front, and then drove the carriage to stop in the open space on both sides of the street, and they also knew in their hearts that the identity of the person who could use the nine-headed fourth-order desolate demon to pull the cart must be very noble, but it was not caused by them.
The funeral procession left Daze City directly, because the procession was dragging a carriage, so the degree of rushing could not be too fast, and it was completely on foot towards the Nanming Dynasty.
And Zhao Jingfeng, the head of the Yuncong family, did not let go, handed over to a soldier of the elite squad to escort, and left with the funeral car.
With this slow hurried, Zhao Jingfeng and his people walked for seven days before finally returning to Kaifeng City of the Southern Ming Dynasty. Walking on foot for seven days in a row was naturally nothing to Zhao Jingfeng and Chen Lingxiang and the fifty elite squads, but Du Qiuniang and Yun Shang, the two weak women, couldn't stand it, and rode a fourth-order desolate demon mount halfway through, both of them looked haggard and exhausted.
After returning to the Zhao Mansion, Du Qiuniang couldn't care about her tired body, and immediately found the deputy butler of the Zhao Mansion, and immediately asked the deputy butler to arrange a grand funeral for Du Shi Niang in the mansion.
However, after hearing this, the deputy housekeeper did not act immediately, but hesitated, and said: "Fourth lady, the funeral will be held not long after the Zhao Mansion opened, and it is also a funeral for an outsider, I am afraid that this is a little inappropriate, and most of the elders in the family will not agree." ”
Du Qiuniang's face sank, and she shouted: "What an outsider, that's my sister, Deputy Butler Xu, you go and arrange it immediately." ”
"This ......" the deputy butler is very embarrassed, the Zhao Mansion is not a second- or third-rate small family, but a famous family of the Southern Ming Dynasty, if a grand funeral is arranged for an outsider, it does make the deputy butler feel very inappropriate.
"Didn't you hear what my mother said? There's nothing wrong with arranging my aunt's funeral in the house, why don't you do it quickly. Zhao Jingfeng walked in from outside, staring at the deputy housekeeper with sharp eyes and whispering.
Seeing that Zhao was frightened and angry, the deputy housekeeper trembled in his heart and said in a panic: "Ah! It's the fourth young master, the fourth young master is angry, the fourth young master is angry, and the slave is going to arrange the funeral." Zhao Jingfeng spoke, and the deputy housekeeper no longer dared to speak back, because he also knew in his heart that in the Zhao Mansion, Zhao Jingfeng's identity was supreme, and the honor and status of the Zhao Mansion were brought by him alone.
