Chapter 58: Funeral

The little monk didn't expect that as soon as he came out of the small blessed land, he encountered the six-winged golden cicada, and he threw the stone bowl in his hand without saying a word.

I saw that the stone bowl was shining with golden light, and in an instant, the six-winged golden cicada that was about to escape was covered inside.

The six-winged golden cicada slammed into it like a headless fly, but this time it failed to break out of the golden light like last time.

The stone bowl shrank smaller and smaller, and finally slowly floated back into the little monk's hand, "Finally caught you, hehe~"

The little monk glanced inside.

"Oops, you're badly injured!"

The appearance of the six-winged golden cicada in the stone bowl is very miserable, not to mention only two of the six wings, and they are all tattered, no wonder they are easily covered by the little monk with a stone bowl.

In addition, it also had a big hole in its abdomen, and the wound was still gurgling with transparent blood.

"It's miserable, it's miserable!"

The little monk smacked his lips and said.

It seems that this guy didn't get a good deal in the little blessed land!

"Amitabha, the six-winged golden cicada donor, don't run around, stay in the stone bowl of the little monk, and the little monk won't eat you."

The little monk stretched out his hand, only to see a transparent fragment of the origin of the blessed land floating out of the stone bowl.

Also, if there is no Blessed Land Origin Fragment, this six-winged golden cicada will not be able to get out of the small blessed land of Guiru.

Probably really tired, or understanding the little monk's words, the six-winged golden cicada quietly lay at the bottom of the stone bowl and no longer moved.

"Female benefactor, let's go to the master quickly." After subduing the six-winged golden cicada, the little monk couldn't wait to say.

Although the little monk usually always has a nose that is not a nose and his eyes are not eyes, he can't help but worry about his master at this time.

"Okay, let's go!"

Changyue also wanted to return the little monk to the smart monk as soon as possible, and then hurry home.

There are days and nights in the small blessed land, and she doesn't know how long she has been in it, and she is always a little worried about Granny Feng, Mulberry Ye and Ah Cai at home.

The two of them galloped through the snow.

However, the intelligent monk seems to have a special means to find the little monk, and they didn't look for long before the intelligent monk appeared on his own.

"Female benefactor, thank you for helping the apprentice this time, the poor monk is grateful." The intelligent monk folded his hands and thanked Changyue seriously, Changyue rarely saw him look like a real monk.

"The master doesn't have to be like this, I have a very good relationship with the little monk and take care of each other." Changyue also returned the gift to the intelligent monk.

"How difficult the martial arts are, I hope that in the future, the female benefactor and Xuankong can continue to help each other." The intelligent monk nodded with satisfaction, he had a good impression of the female doll in front of him.

"Master, I don't know what happened to Li Changming and the others?" At this time, Changyue asked again, anyway, there are her eldest brother and second brother among those people, and it is unreasonable not to care about it.

The intelligent monk replied with a smile: "Female donor, please rest assured, Master Li and the others are safe and sound, and they have now returned to Mingyue City." ”

It's okay! Changyue breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, "Thank you Master for your support." ”

The intelligent monk waved his hand with a smile, and returned to his indecent appearance, "It's okay, it's okay, it's okay to help each other, the female donor doesn't have to be polite, hehehe......"

"Then master, let's leave it at that, if you and the little monk have something to find me, just go to the Cangyue Pavilion in Mingyue City and talk to the shopkeeper there." Changyue was in a hurry to go home, so she offered to say goodbye.

"Take care, donor." The wise monk clasped his hands together.

"Donor, take care." The little monk said with tears in his eyes.

"You also take care and cultivate well." Changyue patted the snowflake that landed on the little monk's hat.

After separating from the little monk, Changyue ran his light skills and flew away in the direction of Mingyue City.

When she arrived outside Daqingshan, she found that the return of the small blessed land to the ruins affected not only one place in Daqingshan, but also the entire surrounding area of Mingyue City, with heavy snow everywhere, and the ordinary people affected by the disaster did not know how many.

Although the snowfall outside is not as severe as inside Daqingshan, it is deadly enough for ordinary people.

On the way back to Mingyue City, Changyue saw that many villages were submerged in thick snow, and some of them even had corpses lying on the side of the road that no one had collected.

The tall and majestic walls of Mingyue City are still standing, there are guards patrolling back and forth at the city gate, and city guards are also arranged at the city gate, they are wearing thick clothes, but they are still shivering from the cold.

At the gates of the city were a number of improvised huts, huddled up by people who had been displaced by the disaster, and who were dressed in rags, some of them covered with only a layer of thatch or straw.

Others huddled in the corner, seemingly closing their eyes to recuperate, but in fact they had lost their lives in their sleep.

When Changyue walked to the gate of the city, she saw such a hell on earth.

She glanced at the shack and tightened her cloak, feeling colder.

When Changyue climbed over the wall and returned to her small courtyard, she found that her home was almost the same as when she left, and the two bison at the door were led into the shed in the yard, and the snow in the yard was also swept away.

Sang Ye was practicing swords in the courtyard, and Ah Cai next to him was imitating her, while watching, while gesturing, he was also nine years old, and it wouldn't take long to cultivate.

At this moment, Changyue entered the door.

"Miss !!"

Seeing Changyue come back, Sang Ye directly shook off the long sword in her hand.

"Miss, you're finally back! I've been worrying about you these days! ”

Recently, there have been rumors in Mingyue City that none of the warriors who went to the secret realm to explore have returned, and the old and young masters in the mansion have not returned, so Sang Ye and Granny Feng are worried.

Changyue patted Mulberry Ye's shoulder, and then took off the cloak covered with snow on his body, "Okay, I'm not back, let's go, let's go into the house and say." ”

"Hey~" Sang Ye responded happily, "Miss, you go into the house to change your clothes, the slave maid will go to boil water for you, you take a hot bath first and then talk about anything else." ”

"Okay, we've worked hard for mulberry leaves."

"It's not hard, it's not hard, Ah Cai, you can also help!" Mulberry Ye scurried towards the kitchen and beckoned to Ah Cai.

"Here, Sister Sangye!"

Ah Cai ran to the kitchen as soon as she heard this, as if she had Hot Wheels on her feet.

When taking a bath, Sang Ye had to serve Changyue in person, but Changyue couldn't resist her, so she had to agree.

In the bath water, Changyue added a potion to eliminate fatigue and dredge muscles and bones, exuding a burst of fragrance, soaking the whole body in the bathtub, and Changyue sighed comfortably.

It's alive!

"Mulberry leaves, where's my mother-in-law?" Changyue asked, "In Ewha Village?" ”

Mulberry Ye washed Changyue's hair while replying: "Yes, because of the secret realm, there have been a lot of foreign warriors in the city recently, and Lihuazhuang is close to Daqingshan, and there are often people making trouble recently, but the mother-in-law is amazing, whoever wants to make trouble in Lihuazhuang has to weigh it!" ”

Changyue nodded, and then asked, "Are you okay at home?" ”

"Hey, what can I do at home, it's all right, Caizhu's dead girl didn't even dare to lift her head when she saw me recently!" Speaking of this, Sang Ye's tone was full of pride, "Oh, by the way, now Caizhu has changed her name to Lanzhu, hahaha, I'm laughing to death!" ”

"Oh?" Changyue looked surprised, "It seems that she didn't get any good fruit to eat from my fifth sister." ”

"Hmph~" Sang Ye pouted, "Miss Fifth still has some reasoning." ”

"You, you!" Changyue was helpless, "Why is your temper so big." ”

"Hee-hee~ Of course, Miss is used to it!" Saying that, the movements of Mulberry Leaf's hands are more diligent.

Since there was someone to serve, Changyue enjoyed it with peace of mind, she leaned on the bathtub and let the mulberry leaves hand her up and down.

Changyue had just finished taking a shower and was getting dressed, when Ah Cai's voice suddenly sounded outside the door.

"Miss, the big housekeeper outside is here."

The big butler? Changyue was puzzled, the big housekeeper in the house seemed to have never been here.

The big housekeeper of the Li Mansion was the little servant next to Changyue's grandfather back then, and he grew up watching the current head of the family, Li Xuan, and his low position in the mansion was extraordinary, and he was also a martial arts master in the Shangyuan Realm.

Changyue hurriedly changed her clothes and walked out of the room, only to see an old man with gray hair and a serious face standing in the living room.

"Grandpa Jiangang."

Changyue stepped forward and saluted the old man.

The name of the chief housekeeper is Li Jiangang, although he is nominally a servant in the Li family, but in fact, when he goes to the head of the family Li Xuan, down to the maid, everyone respects him very much.

When Changyue's grandfather was young, he was chased and killed while traveling abroad and was seriously injured, and in the end, Li Jiangang rescued him after several tosses and turns.

Moreover, Li Jiangang has been the chief housekeeper of the Li family for many years, and he has handled things fairly, with clear rewards and punishments, and has always handled the affairs of the Li family in an orderly manner, and is one of Li Xuan's most powerful helpers.

Li Xuan was a swinger brother when he was young, he was able to stay in the position of the head of the family for so many years without making mistakes, and he could even be called conscientious, and Li Jiangang's persuasion was indispensable.

Therefore, the juniors of the Li family will respectfully call Li Jiangang "Grandpa Jiangang".

"Miss Seven."

Li Jiangang returned the Long Moon salute, although he was respected in the Li family, he never played music to his master, and always remembered his identity as a subordinate (in fact, he was no longer a slave in the Li family).

Seeing that Li Jiangang didn't speak for a long time, his expression seemed to be a little dazed, and Changyue looked at him suspiciously:

"Grandpa Jiangang? I don't know what ...... you're here today."

"Huh? Oh......" Li Jiangang finally came back to his senses, his expression revealing a trace of imperceptible sadness, "Miss Seven, the head of the family...... The head of the house has gone, and the eldest lady invites you to come over. ”

What? What went?

Changyue didn't react to the meaning of Li Jiangang's words for a while, her expression was a little stunned, and her hand subconsciously pinched the corner of the table next to her.

"Seventh Miss, the master fell in the secret realm, the eldest lady invites you to come over." Li Jiangang repeated it again, this time he changed his words, and Changyue finally understood the meaning of the words.

Her dad is gone!

Changyue felt as if her head had suddenly been hit by something, and she was dizzy for a while, and there was only one thought circling in her mind, "Li Xuan is dead"!

Changyue has lived in the Li Mansion for more than ten years, and in addition to the New Year's holidays, she and Li Xuan have only met a handful of times, and it is all a lie to say how deep the relationship between them is.

Can...... This is his father after all.

Changyue has always felt that the friendship between her and Li Xuan is probably not as deep as that of the eldest lady, who has no blood relationship with her.

The phrase "the most familiar stranger" is very appropriate to describe her relationship with Li Xuan.

But such a person gave birth to himself and raised himself.

And the news came so suddenly, Changyue still clearly remembered not long ago, Li Xuan was angry because his beloved horse was injured, and he also remembered his expression when he forgave his two bison......

However, such a vivid person, all of a sudden, is gone.

"Miss! Miss! Miss! ”

Changyue was in a trance, and it wasn't until Sang Ye gently shook her arm to call her that she realized it, and her already pale and abnormal face became even more ugly.

"Grandpa Jiangang, you go first, I'll be there soon." Changyue said.

"Hey~" Li Jiangang sighed deeply, raised his feet and walked out of Changyue's courtyard.

"Mulberry leaves, help me find a plain dress."

"Yes, miss."

Changyue changed into plain white clothes as quickly as possible, with no powder on her face, and no bead hairpin on her head.

"Ah Cai, you stay at home and wait for your mother-in-law to come back and tell her."

"Yes, miss."

After saying that, Changyue hurriedly left with mulberry leaves.

When passing through the mansion, Changyue walked like a fly, and the appearance of the sick and weak in the past was like two people, and the people saw the flashing back, and they were puzzled for a while.

Was that Miss Seven just now?

No, no, I must have been dazzled.

When Changyue arrived at the courtyard of the eldest lady, it was already full of people, and her brothers and sisters had all arrived, from the eldest Li Changming to the youngest Li Changkun, there was no shortage of one.

Li Changming and Li Changyou had just come out of the small blessed land, their injuries were not yet complete, their faces were very pale, and they had been stunned since they knew that their father was gone, and they had not said a word, and their state was worrying.

is different from the plastic parental relationship between Changyue and Li Xuan, and their relationship with Li Xuan is really deep.

Li Changyu (Fourth Miss), Li Changyun (Fifth Miss), Li Changye (Eighth Miss), and the little radish head Li Changqian (Lao Jiu) are all crying, and the loudest crying is Lao Wu.

She usually has the most flamboyant personality, even at this time.

The tenth Li Changkun was only two years old, and he didn't understand anything, but he didn't cry, but just nestled quietly in his aunt's arms.

But it didn't matter, his aunt cried for him all his share.

Lao Shi's aunt is a soft and weak woman, usually delicate, and this crying seems to be leaking.

It's not just the aunt who is crying in this house.

Li Xuan had more than a dozen aunts before and after, several of them had no children and no daughters, and they were just ordinary people, as soon as Li Xuan died, they were all completely helpless.

At this time, I don't know if they are really sad about Li Xuan's death, or if they are worried that they will have nothing to rely on in the future.
