The second uncle’s words really made me freeze on the spot.
Although his method is not very "glorious", it is indeed a convenient and good method.
In this case, the paper man could not help but refuse.
I also have a smile on my face.
After leaving the yard, the carriage stopped in the middle of the road. Huo Kunmin was also beside him, and He Zhi was talking to him.
Bai Shuangqin moved some small items onto the carriage, and her second uncle went to help her.
I walked up to Huo Kunmin.
Huo Kunmin clasped his hands and bowed respectfully to me: "Mr. Li, Huo cannot be sent far away this time. I hope you can return to Jiuhe County as soon as possible."
I returned the favor in return.
Jian Jian said a few words to Huo Kunmin and asked him to send someone to help take care of the paper shop.
Then, without staying any longer, I signaled He Zhi to get in the car.
When I finally got on the bus, I peeked inside the car.
Sure enough, I saw the paper figure Xu in the corner. He was not awake at this time, but he was tied up tightly.
Behind the paper figure Xu was wrapped in a straw mat. He Zhi whispered to me that Miao Guangyang's body was wrapped in it.
I sighed in my heart, and after thinking deeply, I decided to take his body to Tang Town first. After all, he and his master had an old relationship. If we went to Miaojia Village again, it would take too long, and I was afraid of complications.
Driving horses and carts, we left Jiuhe County and headed towards Tang Town.
After driving for a while, I exchanged words with He Zhi. She drove and I went into the carriage to rest.
The paper man Xu woke up just then. He looked gloomy and stared at his second uncle for a long time without saying a word.
On the contrary, it was the second uncle who smashed his mouth, touched the chin of the paper man Xu, and said that he liked to cure stubborn tempers.
I smiled bitterly, but Paperman Xu was obviously so angry that his face turned blue!
Finally, Xu Cai, the paper man, said, let him go.
I actually feel that it has come out and I can let go of the paper man Xu.
But my second uncle stopped me. He said that he understood the character of the paper man Xu, and if I let him go now, he would definitely fight.
Although the paper man Xu had a broken arm, he was still no match for the paper maker's skills, and He Zhi and I were also difficult to deal with.
They have been tied up, and they will not stop until they reach Tang Town before letting go!
My second uncle was also stubborn, so I smiled bitterly, apologizing to the paper man in my eyes.
However, we really didn’t tie the paper man for that long, but let him go that night when we entered an inn to rest.
The paper-man Xu didn't leave, but his expression and figure were much bleaker.
The second uncle drank a few more glasses, babbled a few more words to the paper figurine, and then fell asleep.
I looked at the paper man for a while, but I felt that I might know what he was thinking.
It’s just that I feel so sad that it’s hard to express...
After resting until the next day and continuing on the road, there was an episode where the old chicken got out of the bamboo basket and got on the roof of the car.
It stayed on the roof of the car as we drove.
During the journey, Bai Shuangqin also played the piano from time to time, and after listening to it, I felt much calmer.
The normal journey takes about twenty days, but under the galloping horses of the Qiang people, we arrived in Tang Town in only seven days.
When we entered the town, many townspeople came to see us.
Mostly to see the novelty of the horses and their doubts about us.
I'm not surprised. The last two times I came to Tang Town, I was almost always in Dixiang Luli, and I went to Gou's house, but I didn't show up in Tang Town a few times.
Very few townspeople know me.
The carriage didn't stop until it reached the end of Tang Town and outside the Xianglu.
After getting off the car, I stared blankly at the courtyard gate of Dixianglu and the words on the plaque.
My mood became complicated in an instant, and I could not suppress my sadness.
He Pheasant was beside me, his eyes slightly red.
The paper man Xu looked sad and complicated. As for the second uncle, he had to be more cautious and not so rough after all.
I took a deep breath, said nothing, and stepped forward to open the courtyard door.
After entering, I immediately saw the long and spacious table, covered with dark black cloth, and the edges of the long table were raised at both ends.
Octagonal lanterns are placed on the vermilion wooden lampstands on both sides.
Even during the day, there are still dim candles burning, and the lanterns are reflected transparently.
The dark copper-colored incense burner in the center of the table was half-burned, and white smoke lingered in the air.
The white candlestick next to the incense burner had a lot of wax oil spilled out and solidified on the mourning hall.
The water in the bronze bottle was slightly less.
In the huge coffin behind the mourning hall, reflected by the setting sun, the golden color of the wood grain became heavier than before.
The memorial tablet at the top of the coffin was still empty.
"Yin Yang, this spiritual position has no words...what's the point?" My second uncle asked me in a low voice.
I didn't answer. When I walked to the mourning hall, I knelt on the ground with a bang!
I knelt three times and kowtowed nine times before bowing my head and kneeling in front of the mourning hall.
He Zhi also came over and knelt down, while she bowed and kowtowed as a junior.
Then He Fei turned his head softly and said: "Second Uncle, Uncle Xu, I will arrange for you to go to the guest room to rest first. Mr. Jiang has his own arrangements for matters in the Xianglu. Let Yin and Yang stay alone for a while."
The second uncle asked no more questions, and the paper man Xu also listened to He Zhi's arrangements and followed her towards the guest room.
I knelt for a long time, from the setting sun, until dusk approached, and then until night fell.
I seemed to feel that there was a pair of eyes looking at me from the direction of the coffin.
I raised my head and stared at the coffin, but I didn't see anything.
I lowered my head again and whispered: "Master, Brother Jiang, I have seen him."
"He is already married and has a wife and daughter. However, there may be some gaps between the two of us. However, he should have realized that it was a misunderstanding. It was my disciple's fault that he failed to tell Brother Jiang everything. "
"Mr. Guo was killed. I know who the murderer may be, holding one of his arms, but I still don't know what method he used to kill Mr. Guo. Even Daochang Liu can't gain the upper hand in front of Mr. Guo... Then People also gave me a short-lived appearance..."
"My disciple has encountered many things. This road is indeed not easy to walk."
"My disciple didn't dare to tell you that day that I couldn't send He Fei away..."
"I can't do this theory of cause and effect or what Gui Po said." As I said that, I kowtowed again.
When he raised his head again, he put his hand on the back of his head and touched the position of the giant tau.
"The giant turtle bone was destroyed by Mr. Guo..."
"My disciple understands that sometimes if you make one mistake, you will make mistakes every step of the way."
"My disciple doesn't want you to be too disappointed. When I return to Dixianglu on this trip, I will read through the letters of all the gentlemen of Dixiang Kanyu's lineage, and thoroughly learn the house scriptures. If I don't have enough means, I will never leave Tang Dynasty again. town."
"My disciple can only change his fate by himself."
"I will bring Brother Jiang back as soon as possible..."
As soon as I finished speaking, suddenly, the wind started blowing in the yard.
The wind was strong, but it did not blow out the incense candles on the mourning hall, but made them burn even more brightly!
The incense candle is almost burning to the end.
At this moment, a cow mooing sound came from behind me...
