Chapter Seventy-Seven: Leaves Return to the Roots (Part II)
Duguyun I is a hero, a long sword walks the rivers and lakes, acts chivalrous and righteous, punishes adultery and eliminates evil, and has made a great name, everyone on the rivers and lakes admires him, and there is no one who does not admire him. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThis is also why since Dugu Jian walked the rivers and lakes, whenever he mentioned his father, people in the martial arts would help him, which can be said to be a large part of Dugu Yun's factors.
For his father Duguyun's appearance, Dugu Jian can be said to have no memory at all, since he was four years old after Duguyun left, he left for more than half a year, his mother Shangguan Hong took him out for a walk, but he was suddenly besieged by gangsters, if it wasn't for Liu Qingzhou just passing by, I am afraid that he would have lost his life. A five-year-old child, after so many years, how can he still remember his father's appearance? Even Shangguan Hong, the impression in Dugu Jian's heart has begun to blur. Every time he thought of his mother, he would feel a fog in his mind, as if there was a thin veil covering his mother's face, making him unable to remember his mother's appearance.
Dugu Jian's tears flowed down his cheeks drop by drop and fell on Dugu Yun's bones. Thirteen years have passed, and my father has been murdered for thirteen years, and I have not found my father's body until this time. His tears were both sad and sad, but also joyful and joyful.
"Dad, let's go home!" Dugu Jian wiped a handful of tears, stood up and looked at Dugu Yun's remains, and said firmly. He turned around and said to Zhang Jinyan: "Third brother, please ask someone to prepare dry firewood and cooking oil, and then prepare a better wooden box." Zhang Jinyan knew what Dugu Jian meant, so he immediately responded and walked out of the cave to prepare.
Zhang Linxin's mood at this time also calmed down a lot, and when she heard Dugu Jian's words to Zhang Jinyan, she also understood that he planned to cremate Duguyun's remains and then bring them back. Huining is not as good as Poyang Lake, and Duguyun only has a skeleton left, if he sends Duguyun back to Hengshan with a coffin like Dugu Jian used a coffin to send Duguyun back, I am afraid that he will not be able to go back in two or three months, so this method is not advisable. Dugu Jian's plan is to cremate his father's remains, take them with him, and go back quickly, so that he will save a lot of time.
The two of them stood quietly by the coffin, accompanying Duguyun. After a while, Dugu Jian looked at Zhang Linxin, pulled her and whispered to Dugu Yun's remains: "Dad, look, this is Zhang Shibo's daughter, called Zhang Linxin, Shibo entrusted Lin'er to me before he died." The child is not filial, and has always misunderstood Zhang Shibo, thinking that he was the great enemy who killed you, and later learned that Shibo has endured humiliation and infamy over the years, but it is to keep your friendship and the loyalty you are insisting on together. For this reason, even Shibo's son Zhang Rumeng has always misunderstood him, and his colleagues in the rivers and lakes have also spurned and despised him, but he has never defended himself, and would rather always bear this injustice. Dad, now, Zhang Shibo was unfortunately killed by Nangong Xuan, a dog thief, this revenge, the child will definitely avenge you! The child must have stabbed Nangong Xuan, and took his head to the grave of your second elder to pay respects!"
Zhang Linxin also bowed slowly to the coffin: "Uncle Dugu, your name, niece has also heard my father mention it many times, and every time he mentions you, he admires and admires you very much." For the sake of your friends, you are willing to stay and break off, and for my father, you do not hesitate to force him to kill you, your niece is really admired, please be worshiped by your niece again. She bowed deeply to the coffin twice.
At this time, Zhang Jinyan also walked in and said to Dugu Jian: "Big brother, the dry wood and fire oil are ready, and I have already ordered someone to go to the city to find the best box, if not, find a carpenter to make a good one, it's too late, you see?" Dugu Jian nodded, "Okay, then let's go first!"
"Big brother, then I'll call someone to come in and carry the coffin?" Zhang Jinyan asked. Dugu Jian replied: "No, what's the matter with the coffin?" As he spoke, he strode to the edge of the coffin, "Dad, the child will take you home!" As he spoke, he reached out and lifted the yellow cloth under Duguyun's body, wrapped Duguyun's entire bones in the yellow cloth and lifted it, and he walked outside the cave with his father's body in his arms.
A wooden shelf had been erected with dry firewood in the open space outside the cave, Dugu Jian walked over and gently placed Dugu Yun on the top, knelt down and solemnly kowtowed three times. He took the torch handed by Zhang Jinyan, silently walked over and lit the dry wood, and the raging fire soon surrounded Duguyun's remains and slowly burned......
After that, the ashes were put into an urn made of high-quality nanmu that Zhang Jinyan ordered someone to find, and after locking it, Dugu Jian wrapped it tightly in three layers of yellow cloth, and then tied the urn to his chest.
Zhang Jinyan looked at Dugu Jian's appearance and hurriedly asked, "Big brother, are you going to leave?" Dugu Jian replied: " Third brother, I'm really sorry, you helped me find my father's bones this time, it must have been a lot of hard work, I should have thanked you well, but you also know that now that the two countries are about to fight, we still have a very important thing to do, I am like an arrow at the moment, I can't wait to rush back to the Central Plains tomorrow, so we won't stay, and after we are all settled, we will get together again, okay?"
Zhang Jinyan can also understand Dugu Jian's thoughts, his parents died when he was a child, and his biological eldest brother was also killed, so he can understand Dugu Jian's feelings very well, so how can he not be considerate of him? And even if you do stay, we can't go into the city to rest, after all, it's too unsafe in the city, so it's better for you to leave like that. When I have a chance in the future, my younger brother will definitely go to the Central Plains District to visit you and my second brother!"
"Okay, then it's decided! When you have time in the future, you must come!" Dugu Jian also replied. Zhang Jinyan glanced at Zhang Linxin, and then leaned on Dugu Jian's ear and whispered: "Well, eldest brother, when you and your sister get married, you must inform the younger brother, you can't do this to the second brother anymore." Dugu Jian showed a smile on his face and replied: "Okay, it must be, I won't forget you then!"
Zhang Linxin looked at the expressions of the two and felt a little weird, so she asked, "What must be?" What are you secretly talking about?" Zhang Jinyan hurriedly explained: "No, nothing, sister, we must get drunk in the future." Zhang Linxin pursed her lips, with a look of disbelieving, "Only if you believe in you, you will have a ghost, you are not a big person, and you have a lot of eyes." Of the three of you, you are the most dishonest!"
Zhang Jinyan looked like he was screaming, beat his chest and shouted: "Wronged! Sister, the little brother has always been very realistic!" Looking at his appearance, Zhang Lin couldn't help laughing, covered his mouth and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, okay, you are the most honest, you are the most realistic, okay." ”
The three of them walked out of the valley while talking, and Zhang Jinyan ordered someone to send some dry food, gold and silver for the two of them to use on the road. took out a small wooden box again, handed it to Dugu Jian and said: "Big brother, when the second brother got married, the little brother couldn't rush over, this pair of white jade horses can be regarded as a small gift from the younger brother to the second brother." ”
Dugu Jian opened it and saw that there were two palm-sized jade horses carved from white jade, transparent and lifelike, both horses were galloping, this kind of high-grade white jade was already very rare, and it was even more rare to carve it into such a realistic horse, and it was even more valuable than the jasmine buckle that Jian Xin gave Li Yao as a congratulatory gift last time, after all, "gold is priceless and jade is priceless", and it is still such a high-quality white jade.
Dugu Jian put away the wooden box and said, "Okay, third brother, I will thank you here on behalf of the second brother in advance!" Zhang Jinyan hurriedly said: "Where is this big brother? This is what the younger brother should be." Dugu Jian patted Zhang Jinyan, "Don't talk about gossip, third brother, let's go, there will be a period later, take care!"
"Big brother take care!
"Well, so do you!"
After the three of them said goodbye to each other, Kenshin got on their horses and headed south...... (To be continued.) )
