"What?"

Fang Ke, who was dressed in a heroic prisoner's embroidered robe, suddenly got up and exclaimed: "You said that your lord Dai Xiao returned to the city and went to the coffin shop?" Are you sure you're not wrong? ”

The little flag officer under the hall looked left and right, and said in a low voice: "Whoever is wrong with his humble position can't admit his mistake with our family...... I went to the Yuelai Inn with you. ”

After he reminded him like this, Fang Ke immediately remembered that this guy had indeed been to the Yuelai Inn with him, and had seen his own adults without masks.

He wandered anxiously in place twice, and the first thing that came to his mind was the impact of this incident on the current situation.

Such lofty words as the current situation and the life and death of an unknown fisherman and old man seem to be two things that are incompatible.

But Fang Ke was sure that even if Lord Shen knew about this, he would consider it accordingly as soon as possible......

That's one of the only two ropes that bind a tiger!

Thinking of Shen Fan, Fang Ke turned around and shouted, "Herald." ”

A bee-waisted sturdy wrestler with an apeback stepped inside, clenched his fists and arched his hands: "Humble duty." ”

Fang Ke grabbed an arrow from his desk and threw it down: "Immediately go to Beijing to meet the commander Lord Shen, and report to Lord Shen that Yang Erlang Lord Yang's father-in-law has passed away...... Take the two horses on the road, the people of Marshall will not stop, be sure to report this information to Lord Shen before noon tomorrow! ”

"Whoa!"

The sturdy wrestler was ordered to turn around and run out of the office.

After Fang Ke wandered around twice again with his hands in his hands, he shouted a few times: "Pass on this official order, all the captains of the general flag and above in the office, except for those who are in the important case, the rest of them will immediately change into black casual clothes and go to Lord Yang's hometown with the official to mourn!" ”

The little flag officer under the hall answered, but he stood under the hall slowly, refusing to leave.

Fang Ke glared at him inexplicably: "What are you still doing?" Go and herald! ”

The little flag officer glanced at him cautiously, and said boldly: "Lord Fang, can only adults above the chief flag officer go?" We brothers, we don't eat less chicken, duck and fish meat from Lord Yang......"

Fang Ke was stunned for a few seconds before he reacted, he was talking about the chickens, ducks, and fish that his boss paid out of his own pocket to add to the brothers below.

At the beginning of the meeting when Yang Ge sat on the general banner of the embroidered guard, half of the "regular money" that Yueyue sent to him turned into chickens, ducks, and fish and returned to the brothers' pots.

Whether it was the Luting stronghold at the beginning, or the Luting Hundred Households and the Embroidered Clothes Guard, no wrestler dared to say that he had never eaten Lord Yang's chicken legs.

Fang Ke, who went to Yang Ge's house to eat, even dared to say with certainty that the food in the house was better than Yang Ge's food most of the time.

Perhaps this is the reason why the brothers still respect him and hold him so much, even though he has not been reinstated......

A sense of realization suddenly rose in Fang Ke's heart, and then a sense of admiration surged up with self-inferiority.

Some people are like this, you can't be him, and you don't even want to be him, but that doesn't stop you from admiring him.

"Don't go and cause trouble for the adults."

Fang Ke sighed lightly: "I know that you are all filial, and adults must know it, but we don't say that there are four or five hundred brothers, how can this go?" Isn't it equivalent to telling the whole world the identity of an adult? He has so many enemies, how can he live a peaceful life in the future? ”

The little flag official stubbornly said: "You don't need to bother about this matter, as long as you can't help the brothers to go over, whoever wants to go, if you can't go, you will be divided into several batches...... So many corrupt officials and brothers in Jiangsu and Zhejiang have done it, can they still be stumped by a white matter? ”

"Besides, doesn't the old saying still say that one fence has three piles, and one hero has three gangs? This kind of thing happened in the adult's house, just a few of you went over, and the outsiders saw it, and thought that there was no one in our family's family! ”

"Isn't that a shivering of our family?"

"What's going on?"

Fang Ke was laughed angrily at this guy's words, and he gave this guy a thumbs up: "Hu Qiang, you kid has a kind, you dare to talk back to me, since you want to take care of everything, then this matter will be arranged by you, do a good job, I will raise you to be a general flag, if you can't do it well, before the adults pick my skin, I must pick your skin first!" ”

The little flag officer clenched his fists excitedly to the end: "You just look at it, I promise to do this beautifully!" ”

……

The sun is setting in the west, and the river wind is whining.

Yang Ge, who was dressed in linen and filial piety, pulled a heavy red coffin alone, and walked on the empty river embankment with one foot deep and one foot shallow.

The strength that I couldn't exhaust in the past seems to have suddenly disappeared.

The small fishing village that used to be a step away suddenly seemed to be far away.

He gritted his teeth and struggled to pull the coffin and walked, but the scenery around him became more and more unfamiliar......

"Ah, slow down, slow down!"

He put down the cart with a gasp, leaned on the coffin, and looked at the road ahead in a daze.

The way to come.

He couldn't go back......

"I can't rest, I can't rest."

He muttered as he grabbed the cart with both hands and tried to keep going.

"Little brother, little brother......"

A shout came from behind him.

Yang Ge looked back in a daze, and saw Liu Mang leading a large number of apprentices of the Iron Fist Martial Arts Hall wearing practice uniforms, trotting over.

Liu Mang's eight-foot-tall burly figure ran in front of a group of seventeen or eighteen-year-old apprentices, like an old hen leading a group of chicks.

Seeing him, Yang Ge's eyes finally had a little more light.

Liu Mang rushed over, and without saying anything, he pulled out Yang Ge, who was holding the two handlebars of the board car, and scolded with a tiger face: "Why don't you say anything about such a big thing, and treat your brother and your Uncle Liu as outsiders?" ”

Yang Ge tried to provoke the corners of his mouth: "This is not ...... Are you afraid of causing you trouble? ”

Liu Mang turned his hand and grabbed the two handlebars of the board car: "Are you still a family for fear of trouble?" ”

As he spoke, he pulled the cart and walked forward.

The cart didn't move.

He turned around in shock and knocked on the big red coffin on the car, and his voice was so muffled that he could barely hear it: "You got the treasure of the coffin shop?" ”

Yang Ge tried to squeeze out a smile, but squeezed out two lines of tears: "The old man has never used anything good in his life......"

"You......"

Liu Mang sighed and grabbed his sleeves to wipe the tears on his face, and said earnestly: "Don't think about carrying everything by yourself, our family is not without one." ”

Yang Ge grinned and nodded.

Liu Mang waved his hand: "Walk, lead the way...... What are you doing in a daze? Carts! ”

A group of martial arts hall apprentices responded in unison, and pushed the cart forward.

The cart continued to move forward slowly, but before it went far, it heard a distant cry of "Brother Yang, Brother Yang" coming from behind.

Liu Mang turned his head in confusion, and saw a large group of high-spirited men with big shoulders and round waists and black suits, walking quickly towards this side.

Even though these high-spirited men did not carry weapons, that scene still shrank Liu Mang's pupils: "Little brother, these people are ......"

"It's okay, they're all friends."

Yang Ge replied, turned around and walked quickly to meet him.

"Friends?"

Liu Mang looked at those high-spirited men in disbelief, and always felt that these people looked a little familiar, but after looking carefully, they didn't recognize any of them.

Yang Ge in the carriage greeted him, waved his hand to stop a group of hundreds of households and general banners who were about to salute, and asked Fang Ke, who was in the lead, "Why are you here?" ”

Fang Ke: "Look at what you said, how can we not come to such a big thing?" If this is going to get out, outsiders will still think that there is no one in your house...... What are you still doing? Work hard! ”

A group of hundreds of households and general flags rushed up in response, picking up those poor, weak and helpless martial arts apprentices, and holding the board car Shoucai.

"You're the owner of the Iron Fist Martial Arts Gym, right? How can you be allowed to do such rough work? Let our brothers come......"

"We? We used to pull fiber on the Bianhe River, and when we were in trouble, we were rescued by Brother Yang, and now we are eating in the county government......"

"My name is Liu Yongguang, speaking of which, our brothers are still a family for five hundred years, if there is anything in the future, go to the Yamen to find me, it's hard to say otherwise, Luting is an acre of three-point land, and it is good to make it!"

Yang Ge looked at the 100 households and general banner that fooled Liu Mang around, and reluctantly smiled: "I'm causing you trouble......

Fang Ke shook his head: "Forget it when others say this, you can't say this, you have to be more serious, everyone in the whole road pavilion should go and kowtow to the old man three times!" ”

Yang Ge wanted to laugh, but tears kept pouring out, so he had to cover his face, wave his hand and say, "I thank you on behalf of the old man." ”

Fang Ke held him and said in a low voice: "You mourn and change ......"

……

Xiao Huang stood guard in front of the mourning hall, screaming and driving everyone who tried to approach the mourning hall.

The villagers who helped build the mourning hall in the courtyard saw its mournful and panicked appearance, and they all shed tears......

"Uncle Nine has been lonely all his life, and when he comes, he can still meet a person like Brother Yang who is old for the elderly, and God treats him well."

"Let me tell you, Brother Yang is weak, and the big guys can help a little more, and send Uncle Nine on his last journey lively."

"Look at what you said, even if there is no little brother Yang, it is impossible for us to really ignore it and let Uncle Nine rot in his house......"

"Can you shut up your stinking mouth? When Brother Yang heard what you said, he still had to beat you! ”

"Joke, I'm afraid of him with a foreign surname? I didn't beat him before, it was to save face for Uncle Nine, but now that Uncle Nine is gone, he still dares to play tricks in our village? ”

"Shaking now? Who was beaten and screamed by Brother Yang in the first place, begging us to call the shots for you? If it weren't for your dog's day, Brother Yang wouldn't have come out of the village! ”

"Yo, now that people can afford to eat white rice and white noodles, they start to help people talk? Who said that it was difficult to feed his family with these few acres of thin fields in our village, how could there be surplus grain to support him with a foreign surname? ”

"Don't say it, Brother Yang is back, and there are a lot of people here......"

"Hey, he's a shopkeeper, how many ...... can he invite?"

The discussion came to an abrupt end, and a crowd of black-clad men with huge waists poured into the small, dilapidated courtyard, and the crowded space made many unclothed villagers feel that they were not standing right.

Yang Ge walked into the courtyard, looked at the villagers who were at a loss in the courtyard, knelt on the ground and kowtowed to them: "Thank you for coming to see the old man on the last ride, please go home and rest first, and then invite the big guy to come over for a banquet when I set a day for going up the mountain......"

A group of villagers looked at Yang Ge who was kneeling on the ground and wanted to come up to help, but no one dared to come forward.

Seeing this, Fang Ke and Liu Mang stepped forward to pull Yang Ge up from the ground.

Liu Mang politely thanked him and arranged for his apprentices to send them off.

After Fang Ke circled the courtyard, he commanded the hundreds of households to carry the coffin into the mourning hall, and at the same time instructed the general banners to clean up the narrow and dilapidated courtyard.

Yang Ge no longer looked at these mountain village husbands who bullied the old man and had no children and daughters in the past, and followed the shou coffin into the mourning hall by himself, kneeling in front of the spirit with Xiao Huang screaming, watching them put the old man into the shou coffin......

The villagers were reluctant to return home.

"There are so many guests, Brother Yang is getting ahead!"

"Hey, how much can he make a shopkeeper, he must be a swollen face and a fat man, and he paid for it......"

"You can hire so many people, you can be considered profitable!"

"I'm reluctant to let my mother, I'm going to the city, I'm definitely better than him......"

A group of rural villagers thought they were cooing in a low voice, not to mention a great master of returning to the truth like Yang Ge, even Fang Ke's practice strength was heard by Dacheng.

They looked at Yang Ge and saw Yang Ge kneeling in front of the spirit with a blank face and burning paper money, without saying anything, so they temporarily pressed the idea of going out to repair those fools.

More than 20 embroidered guards and more than a dozen martial arts apprentices worked together to tear down the walls of the small broken courtyard, level the surrounding terrain, and light several bonfires......

After dark, another large crowd poured into the small fishing village, which did not even have a name.

The leader strode into the mourning hall with a nine-cylinder mask, and knelt beside Yang Ge with a pop.

Yang Ge glanced at this Li Ghost suspiciously, and turned his head to look at Fang Ke.

Fang Ke was also stunned, and stepped forward and said urgently: "Hu Qiang, what are you kid doing?" ”

Hu Qiang tactically leaned back: "Who is Hu Qiang?" Don't recognize people, I'm Zhang Mazi, I'm coming back to mourn my father-in-law! ”

As soon as he finished speaking, mournful music began to be played in the courtyard......

Yang Ge smiled, pointed at this guy and said, "This guy has a good brain and a future." ”

When Fang Ke heard this, he also smiled and said, "If you say that he has a future, he must have a future." ”

At the right time, Liu Mang, who came in after hearing the sound, saw the figure wearing a nine-cylinder mask kneeling beside Yang Ge, and he was also stunned, standing outside the door and beckoning to Yang Ge eagerly.

Yang Ge got up and went out, Liu Mang grabbed his arm, and said with a shocked face: "You and Zhang Daxia are brothers?" ”

Yang Ge spread his hands: "I want to say that I only found out today that Zhang Daxia and I are brothers, do you believe it?" ”

Liu Mang: ......

He always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure out what was wrong.
