If I hadn't been absolutely certain that the person in front of me was Hu Qiu, I would have really suspected that she had been transferred.
But if she is said to be controlled by the elders of Tianji Pavilion, I can't see any clues.
And I don’t understand why they went around in such a big circle and asked me to help with the burial.
Judging from various signs, it is obvious that Zhong Changsheng did not really serve Hu Langlang's grandfather, and Qing Yi was also involved.
After thinking about it, I can only think of one answer.
That is the elder of Tianji Pavilion. The ultimate beneficiary of all this must be her.
But I don’t understand. As the Tianzi elder of Tianji Pavilion, her methods must be extraordinary, but why doesn’t she dare to come out to see me?
It felt to me as if she was deliberately avoiding me.
what to do?
Looking at Hu Qiu's pleading eyes, I took a deep breath and made a decision in an instant.
If you continue to cut off, you will surely suffer chaos!
"Okay, I promise you!"
"real?"
"Of course it's true!" I nodded heavily.
Hu Qiu was immediately overjoyed.
The reason why I agreed was not just because of Hu Qiu, but more importantly, I wanted to see what the Hu family wanted to do?
I don't believe that planting immortality can bring the old man back to life.
Since you are already in the whirlpool, you cannot escape. Since you want to break the game, why not join the chess game?
Then Hu Qiu said that she was going to communicate with the Hu family, and then left anxiously.
As soon as Hu Qiu left, Zhong Lan emerged from nowhere.
"Zhang Jiuyang, I didn't expect you to actually agree to them!"
I glanced at her lightly, "Isn't this just what you want?"
When Zhong Lan heard this, she narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at the coffin in her soul, with a cold light flashing in her eyes.
"Don't forget what you promised me and help me kill her!"
I immediately frowned and replied coldly: "You'd better be careful. I never said this."
Unexpectedly, Zhong Lan smiled mysteriously.
"You will agree. As long as you meet, I guarantee that you will kill her, and you are the only one in this world who can kill her."
"What's the meaning?"
I couldn't help but feel something in my heart, and I vaguely felt that there was something in her words.
"You'll know when the time comes! Haha..."
Zhong Lan's red lips parted slightly and she giggled.
Naturally, I wouldn't take her words to heart, and I didn't have time to argue with her too much.
After about a while of waiting for a cup of tea, a group of people walked out of the small courtyard next to them. The leader was Hu Tiangang, followed by Hu Qiu.
What I didn't expect was that I saw another familiar face in the crowd ~ Qing Yi.
Sure enough, he was in the Hu family.
Hu Tiangang's face looked a little unsightly. He walked directly in front of me and asked with a gloomy face:
"Where is my son?"
"Don't worry, he's very good!" I smiled lightly and did not deny it.
Hu Tiangang bit hard and said, "If there is anything wrong with my son, I will never let you go!"
"Really? It depends on how you behave!" I sneered.
Hu Tiangang was so angry with me that he gritted his teeth, but there was nothing he could do.
At this time, I caught a glimpse of Qing Yi behind him, gently nodding towards me.
I nodded in return. No matter what, he saved my life, and I would return this favor to him no matter what.
At this time, Zhao Jiuzhou also came over and looked at me with a wry smile.
"I didn't expect that in the end we would bury the old man together!"
I nodded and looked at his empty shoulders.
"Is your injury okay?"
He also turned his head and looked over his shoulder, and couldn't help but smile.
"The medicine you gave him worked well, but the scabs have already started to form!"
"That's good! But the way you are now, you are no longer suitable for our industry. You should change your job in the future." I said,
My unintentional words seemed to hit Zhao Jiuzhou's sore spot. A touch of loneliness suddenly appeared on his handsome and indifferent face.
I sighed softly, quickly changed the topic, looked at the coffins in the funeral shed and asked, "How do we distribute the two coffins?"
"I have already thought about it. I will be in charge of the old man, and you can be in charge of the other coffin!"
I couldn't help but frown, because this was a bit unexpected.
But the problem is, no matter which coffin I am responsible for, there is no manpower at all now. Huzi, Little Mute and Wang Xinghai have all returned to Seoul, and Fatty still can't get in touch with them.
Now there is no useful person around, only a dog and a chicken.
I can't let dogs and chickens carry the coffin!
I had no choice but to turn my head to look at Hu Tiangang and throw the question to him.
"Have you found the coffin bearers?"
Unexpectedly, Hu Tiangang shook his head, "Why should I find someone? This is your business."
I felt a little angry for a moment, and then smiled coldly.
"If you don't find someone, I will ask someone to take care of your son!"
"You..." Hu Tiangang was so angry that his teeth itched.
"Zhang Jiuyang, you don't have to be arrogant. After this matter is settled, we will settle the old and new accounts together!"
A malicious look flashed in Hu Tiangang's eyes.
Of course I know he won't let me go so easily, but I'm not afraid of him at all now. No matter he comes to do it openly or secretly, I will stay with him until the end.
At this time, Hu Tiangang waved his hand gently, and seven tall young men walked out from behind him. At first glance, they seemed to have been prepared in advance.
I glanced at them lightly, and my heart skipped a beat.
I don't know if it's an illusion, but I always feel that they have a familiar feeling.
"Why only 7?" I asked.
"Counting you, there are exactly 8!" Hu Tiangang chuckled.
I frowned immediately, and I didn't expect to be counted among them.
"Don't forget, this is what you do, are you still afraid of carrying the coffin?" Hu Tiangang said sarcastically.
This sentence makes me speechless, after all, this is my profession.
But the question is who should carry the coffin?
No, I absolutely cannot carry this coffin.
I was about to refuse, but then Hu Qiu came over, stood beside me and whispered:
"Jiuyang, don't think too much, just relax and do the work!"
I glanced at Hu Qiu and could only swallow the words that came to my lips.
I sighed softly in my heart, and then nodded. Although I had many questions in my mind, this was obviously not the place to ask questions, and I knew Hu Qiu's character. If she didn't want to say anything, it would be useless to ask more questions.
Needless to say, there is no need to elaborate on the process of the funeral. It is the same old routine, with children and grandchildren kowtowing incense, changing into mourning clothes, washing mourning cloths, and paying homage to the appearance...
During this process, the descendants of the Hu family behaved quite positively. It can be seen from their faces that they still have some feelings for the old man.
Among the crowd, Hu Xue and Hu Xiaoyu were also among them!
At this time, Hu Tiangang came over, picked up the blue and white porcelain basin he had just used to burn paper next to him, and was about to throw it down.
According to the rules, after throwing the brazier, the spirit can be raised and the funeral can be carried out.
But what no one expected was that at this moment, something unexpected happened.
