"The eldest young master, the little one is fortunate not to be dishonored, he brought the golden lock, and also arrested the best doctor Fan in our Guobei County, and now he can treat the Qingmei girl. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

It didn't take long for Tie Shan to ride a fast horse back and forth and return to Lanruo Temple.

But when he found Li Xiuyuan, he saw Li Xiuyuan standing in the courtyard of the meditation room, standing with his hands in his hands, looking at the sky calmly.

After hearing Tie Shan's voice, Li Xiuyuan came back to his senses and took a look: "There is no need to heal anymore, Qingmei is already dead." ”

"Dead?" Tie Shan was also stunned.

"Dead, dead half an hour ago. Li Xiuyuan shook his head helplessly.

There is a distance between Lanruo Temple and Guobei County, and once you come and go, it will be useless to invite the doctor.

Doctor Fan shook his head slightly at this moment and said: "The old man said, the woman's heart was pierced by Buddha incense, and the blood did not stop, and when the old man arrived, the blood was drained, and she couldn't be saved at all." ”

"Young Master, what now?" Tie Shan asked.

Li Xiuyuan said: "Naturally, you want to prepare for the aftermath of the Qingmei girl, you first take Dr. Fan to help a guard heal your hands, and then take two people back to Guobei County to buy a good coffin, incense candles, paper money and the like....... There is another thing to do, go and transfer a hundred horsemen from my Li family, and make them all prepare axes and steel knives, which I will call tomorrow. ”

Tie Shan was a little puzzled and said, "Big young master, if you send a hundred horsemen, I'm afraid that the old man's side will not agree." ”

One hundred horsemen in this Guobei County is a very large number of people, although the Li family has far more power than these, but it is rarely such a large-scale dispatch.

"If my father disagrees, he will say that I am in urgent need, and I believe that my father will understand, go and return quickly, and strive to do these two things well today. Li Xiuyuan said.

"Yes, the eldest young master, the little one will do it. ”

Tie Shan responded, first took Doctor Fan to help others heal, and then quickly left Lanruo Temple, rode a fast horse back to Guobei County, and of course did not forget to hand over the golden lock to Li Xiuyuan during the period.

Looking at the brocade box in his hand, Li Xiuyuan's eyes showed a sad look.

He sighed softly, turned and stepped into the meditation room.

In the meditation room at this moment, the maid Fluttershy is carrying a basin of water at the moment, wiping the blood stains for the dead Qingmei's corpse, and at the same time changing into dry clothes, and also dressing up, so that the Qingmei girl can be clean after leaving, without a trace of filth.

Looking at it, if it weren't for the pale face without a trace of blood, at this moment Li Xiuyuan thought that Qingmei was sleeping soundly at this time and was not dead.

"Li, Li Gongzi. ”

Fluttershy salutes Li Xiuyuan when she sees her walk in, only to see that her eyes are red and swollen, and she is obviously crying very sad and sad.

Li Xiuyuan nodded, he walked to Qingmei's corpse and opened the brocade box in his hand.

There is a pair of exquisite longevity locks made of pure gold in the brocade box, the reverse side of this longevity gold lock is carved with the pattern of mandarin ducks playing in the water, but the front is engraved with Li Xiuyuan's three words, representing who wears this longevity lock, which means that it is Li Xiuyuan's woman, and she will never be separated.

Li Xiuyuan took out the golden lock and took it to Qingmei's corpse.

With a slight click, the mechanism on the Golden Lock of Longevity triggered, and the golden lock could not be removed for the rest of his life without brute force.

"Qingmei girl, don't worry, I Li Xiuyuan will definitely do what I promised you. Li Xiuyuan said seriously.

After that, he looked at Fluttershy who was waiting next to him and said, "Fluttershy, you will follow me in the future, and I will take you back to the Li Mansion, and from now on you will be my personal maid, and I will take care of you." ”

Fluttershy's heart was moved when she heard this, and her nose was sour, but she couldn't help but cry: "Slave, slave and maid, thank you for your kindness and kindness." ”

"Don't call me Li Gongzi anymore, in front of the Qingmei girl, let's officially meet you, and you will call me young master in the future." Li Xiuyuan said.

"The slave and maid pay a visit to the childe. ”

Fluttershy knelt in front of Li Xiuyuan with a puff and kowtowed.

This worship means that from today onwards, Fluttershy will no longer be Qingmei's handmaiden, but Li Xiuyuan's handmaiden, and it also means that she is no longer alone, she will have her own home and her own home.

"Get up, you are not allowed to kneel in the future after you kneel today, my Li family does not have so many rules. Li Xiuyuan helped him up.

"Slave, Gongzi Xie. Fluttershy stands up and salutes.

Li Xiuyuan said: "Continue to sort out the remains of the Qingmei girl, I have already instructed my subordinates to prepare for the funeral, and soon, the Qingmei girl will be able to be buried." ”

Fluttershy nods.

Around dusk, Tie Shan led people to Lanruo Temple again.

There were a hundred horsemen, all of whom were men with swords and axes, all of them were strong and strong, not like farmers or ruffians, but like well-trained soldiers.

At the same time, several carts and horses also transported a heavy coffin from Guobei County, and also prepared a lot of incense candles, paper money, wreaths, and white satin.

After some arrangement.

A mourning hall has been set up in the courtyard, the coffin has been put in place, and the body of the green plum girl has also been placed in the coffin.

"Master Da, if you are buried early tomorrow morning, you will be sealed today. A coffin bearer came over and said respectfully.

Li Xiuyuan stood in the mourning hall, looking at the spiritual position in front of the coffin and was slightly distracted.

It was only after hearing the sound that he came back to his senses.

"Seal the coffin now, let the Qingmei girl rest in peace as soon as possible, so as not to be disturbed again. Li Xiuyuan said.

According to the normal funeral custom, the coffin is sealed after everyone has worshipped, and then carried to the grave for burial.

However, the Qingmei girl is a woman from the Qinglou, and now she has no father or mother, and no relatives come to worship, so she can only keep everything simple.

"Yes, young master. The coffin bearer answered, and beckoned: "The eldest young master has an order, seal the coffin now." ”

Several craftsmen answered, and sealed the coffin, and from then on it was separated by yin and yang, and it was no longer related.

"The hundred horsemen that the eldest young master asked for are now waiting outside Lanruo Temple, and the little ones are afraid that there will be many people in the temple, so they didn't let them all come. At this time, Tie Shan walked over and said in a low voice.

Li Xiuyuan said: "Let them enter Lanruo Temple to rest for a day, and I have something to tell before they are buried tomorrow." After speaking, he looked in the direction of the Daxiong Treasure Hall slightly: "Are the monks in Lanruo Temple still chanting scriptures until now?"

"Yes, I have never heard the sound of chanting from before until now. ”

"What scripture is it, do you know?" asked Li Xiuyuan.

It seems to be a scripture that transcends the dead, and I have heard it before when I was a little one who participated in a funeral. Iron Mountain said.

Li Xiuyuan nodded: "Go back and donate five hundred taels of silver to this Lanruo Temple." ”

"Small, make a note of it. ”

"Disperse, all of you, I'll keep vigil for the young girl. Li Xiuyuan said.

Tie Shan answered, and beckoned some irrelevant people to leave quickly.

Immediately, only Li Xiuyuan was left in the Zen courtyard, and Xiao Fluttershy, who was wearing linen and filial piety, kneeling in front of the spiritual throne and burning paper money.

They didn't say anything to each other, and they all silently kept vigil for Qingmei.

In the second half of the night, the wind began to blow in the evening, and the cool breeze blew, rolling up the ashes in the brazier, forming a whirlpool in the air, and then disappeared into the night, and the burning candle flame also swayed with the wind, as if it could be extinguished at any time.

"Miss, young master, is Miss back?" Fluttershy asked.

"No, it's just a gust of wind, not a green plum. Li Xiuyuan said calmly.

He has a delicate heart, standing here at the moment, how can there be a ghost, if there is, he wants to see if he can meet the soul of the green plum girl.

But he couldn't see it now.
