Chapter 605: For everyone’s life, Taoist Priest, please go and meet him!
"Rest in peace?"
Taoist Priest Xuanqing looked at Gu Lianggong strangely, he had never expected that he would say such a thing. A proper funeral would take at least three days and at most seven days, he had never heard of that, he was considering burying the baby before the funeral even started.
"Master Ku Mu..."
When Gu Lianggong was about to explain why he advised Taoist Xuanqing to bury Le Wenmao as soon as possible, Le Zhuang interrupted him before he could finish his words:
"Grandpa Gu, I don't agree. Who would rush to bury a person before the funeral even lasts a day? If you really do this and it gets out, won't people laugh at my grandfather and even our Le family?"
He was a man who respected his elders. Logically, he should not have interrupted the conversation between Gu Lianggong and Taoist Xuanqing, and should have let the two elders talk.
But what Gu Lianggong said was too outrageous. He had lived for so many years and had seen how other families held funerals.
Unless it is a special case, most funerals are held in a grand manner.
Those who cannot wait even a day and are in a hurry to consider burying the deceased all dislike the unlucky nature of the deceased and worry that he will bring disaster.
If he really did this, how would he have the face to see his grandfather in the underworld a hundred years later?
"Xiao Zhuang..."
Gu Lianggong was not surprised to see Le Zhuang stand up to oppose him. After all, any decent descendant would not agree to such a thing. He was about to persuade Le Zhuang and Taoist Xuan Qing, but before he could finish his words, he saw Zhuo Tie trembling all over, his face pale, as if he had seen a ghost. He walked in from outside and frowned:
"Zhuo Tie, what else do you want to do? Didn't I ask you to help find someone to dig a hole in the Le family's ancestral tomb?"
Zhuo Tie seemed not to have heard what Gu Lianggong said. His face was filled with fear, as if he had seen a prehistoric beast. He subconsciously looked at Taoist Xuanqing and Le Zhuang, and said in a trembling voice, "Taoist Ku Mu, Xiao Zhuang, someone is looking for you outside!"
"Is there anyone looking for us outside?"
Taoist Xuanqing looked at Zhuo Tie and seemed to have thought of something. He smiled and said, "Is it the eldest son of the Zhu family?"
"Master Ku Mu, how do you know?"
Zhuo Tie exclaimed, his face full of shock.
What's more, the one who was waiting outside for Taoist Xuanqing and Le Zhuang to show up was none other than the eldest son of the Le family.
He received instructions from Taoist Xuanqing at that time and left the Le family reluctantly. After all, he still wanted to take another look at the gates of hell.
But since it was Gu Lianggong's order, he had no way to refuse and could only leave obediently, preparing to call out his companions who often dug pits for others, and go to the Le family's ancestral tomb to work together.
How to know.
As soon as he walked out of the Le family, before he had taken a few steps, he was blocked by someone. It was none other than Zhu Xing.
He had never dealt with Zhu Xing. He didn't know what kind of person Zhu Xing was and what kind of person he was. Let alone dealing with him, he didn't even have the qualifications to talk to Zhu Xing.
But he was still very familiar with Zhu Xing.
Who made Zhu Xing so arrogant and domineering and do so many evil things? Who doesn't worry that he will offend Zhu Xing for no reason and then die without knowing how? Naturally, he has to get to know Zhu Xing first and be familiar with Zhu Xing's appearance. When he sees Zhu Xing appear, don't go up to him and seek death.
Fortunately.
Zhu Xing stopped him not to cause trouble for him, but to ask him to come back and call Taoist Xuanqing and Le Zhuang to leave.
"Why is Zhu Xing here?" Before Taoist Xuanqing could say anything, Gu Lianggong was suddenly shocked.
He would advise to bury Le Wenmao as soon as possible, firstly because he was frightened by the conversation between Taoist Xuanqing and Le Zhuang.
No matter what, he never expected that both Le Zhuang and Taoist Xuan Qing wanted to find Zhu Xing to avenge Le Zhuang's parents. He was afraid that whether Le Zhuang succeeded in revenge or not, there would be a chance that he would be implicated.
Second, he was worried that the news of Cui Ji and his group's death would reach Zhu Xing, causing Zhu Xing to come and cause trouble at Le Wenmao's funeral.
just.
Before he could persuade Taoist Xuanqing and Le Zhuang, Zhu Xing had already appeared at the door of the Le family.
Gu Lianggong suppressed his restlessness and asked, "Didn't he just send Cui Ji back? Why did he come here in person? Could it be that he got the news that Cui Ji and his group had died?"
Zhuo Tie whispered, "Uncle Gu, among the three constables who brought Cui Ji and his group here, one was in Zhu Xing's team!"
Gu Lianggong's pupils suddenly shrank, and he subconsciously turned his head to look at Taoist Xuanqing. He wanted to ask why Taoist Xuanqing didn't cut the grass and root it out. He knew that Zhu Xing came here because the news of Cui Ji's death was leaked, but he also knew that now was not the time to talk about these things, so he hurriedly opened his mouth to persuade:
"Master Ku Mu, why don't you take Xiao Zhuang away from here?"
"Don't!"
Before Taoist Xuanqing responded, Zhuo Tie fell to his knees in front of Taoist Xuanqing with a thump, begging, "Taoist Ku Mu, I beg you, please take Xiao Zhuang to see Master Zhu!"
Gu Lianggong said angrily, "Zhuo Tie, what do you mean by this? Don't you know who Master Zhu is? You asked Taoist Master Ku Mu to take Xiao Zhuang to see him. Aren't you forcing them to death?"
“Uncle Gu, if Taoist Master Ku Mu doesn’t take Xiao Zhuang to see him, our whole family will die!”
At this point, Zhuo Tie paused and lowered his head, not daring to look up at Taoist Xuanqing and Le Zhuang, and then continued, "Not only our entire family, but even the people on this street will have to die!"
"He dares..."
Gu Lianggong cursed angrily, but before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Zhuo Tie, "Uncle Gu, don't you know who Mr. Zhu is? He said this to me personally. Do you decide if he dares to do it?"
Gu Lianggong opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but when the words came to his lips, no words came out.
If Zhu Xing said this to Zhuo Tie in person, he believed that Zhu Xing would dare to do this. All the people on their street died at the hands of Zhu Xing. It was a big case, but he just needed to find a reason.
Such as being struck by plague or being robbed!
With the power of the Zhu family, as long as Zhu Xing is willing to spend money and make arrangements, the people on this street will not be implicated even if all of them die at the hands of Zhu Xing.
Maybe their death is great news for some people.
Not only can you gain a lot of benefits from the Zhu family, but you can also get closer to the Zhu family.
"Master Ku Mu, how about you take Xiao Zhuang out to meet Master Zhu? Maybe Master Zhu doesn't want to harm you and Xiao Zhuang!"
At this time, not only Zhuo Tie, but also other neighbors in the mourning hall, started to persuade them. They were all frightened by Zhuo Tie's words. They sympathized with Taoist Xuanqing and Le Zhuang, but they cared more about their own lives.
