mortal clerk

Chapter 49
Seeing that Li Qingniu had passed out, Lao Shen was about to shake him awake, but was stopped by Luo Wushuang.

"Let him sleep for a while! Now is the time to get out of the city while taking advantage of the chaos!"

After a little thought, Old Shen nodded, and arranged for Xiao Anzi and a few handlebars to place Li Lao Er in his own carriage first, and cover it with fur.As for Li Qingniu, he put it in Xiao'anzi's car.

Luo Wushuang went upstairs to discuss with Deacon Mu and leave the city immediately.Originally, Deacon Mu wanted to delay for another day. After all, he hadn't had time to enjoy the "Taoyao", which is the second best in fish and autumn, and planned to go to the Goulan courtyard in person at night, but he never thought that this would happen.

As far as Deacon Yu Mu is concerned, the death of Li Laoer has nothing to do with him, and he doesn't care about this person's life or death at all, but Li Laoer's death violates the contract "escort Li Laoer safely, and Li Qingniu arrives at the gate of hell." County..." This paragraph.

If Li Qingniu took the contract to the Shendu Trading Chamber of Commerce in the future, it would definitely affect his reputation in the Chamber of Commerce.When he was wondering whether to take the risk of finding someone to get rid of Li Qingniu secretly, he saw Luo Wushuang enter the door.

"The captain didn't return last night?"

"Deacon Mu, indeed, but I came to you to inform you, hurry up and leave the city!"

"Why are you in such a hurry? Didn't there be some turmoil last night? Everyone said that they would go to see the Longmen Waterfall later, and taste Yuqiu Taoyao in the evening!"

"Deacon Mu, the Black Leopard Battalion of the Imperial Guards of the Yufu Kingdom and the patrolling generals of Guimen County all died in this little Yu Qiudu last night. Dozens of Yu Qiudu guards also died. Seriously injured! If you don’t leave, I’m afraid we won’t be able to leave!”

There was a snap, "What? How did this happen? How do you know?"

"If I want to know, no one in this small town can hide it from me! So, Deacon Mu, it's better to get out of the city while the chaos is happening!"

Luo Wushuang's words were both self-confidence and a threat!

Deacon Mu is also a person with a clear mind, so he immediately guessed that these things may have something to do with the few people who left at night.He thought to himself that he was only doing business for money, and all the transactions that should be done have been completed, and if Luo Wushuang, a sixth-rank master, is really missing, it will not be safe for him to regain his senses.

I had to order to go down and leave the city immediately.

The caravan left the Chengguan and drove for more than 60 miles in a row, until it got dark, and just arrived at a place called Huilongling, ready to set up camp, Li Qingniu finally woke up slowly.

In a daze, Li Qingniu grabbed Lao Shen.

"Second dad, second dad, I just had a nightmare. I dreamed that I killed someone, and I dreamed that you were dead! Second dad! I'm so scared!"

Lao Shen looked at Li Qingniu and thought to himself, in fact, this is just a child under 13 years old.But the world is so cruel, whether you are willing or not, whether you are ready or not, put on your sword, turn around and go out, that is the rivers and lakes, that is bloody, that is the parting of life and death!
"Xiao Niu'er, you are not dreaming, your second father is indeed dead, and you have indeed killed someone. You have to learn to accept it!"

When Li Qingniu heard that it was Lao Shen's voice, he was silent for a long time before opening his mouth slowly.

"Uncle Shen, does my second father have anything to say to me before he dies?"

"Your second dad asked me to give you a cloth bag."

As he spoke, he handed it over to Li Qingniu. After touching the cloth bag, the inside was very soft, and he knew that this was probably the ancestral apron.

Immediately, Old Shen handed over a money bag.

"I got this from the bastard who killed your second father. It contains fifty gold coins."

"I know, it was given to me by the patrolman who wanted to kill us last night. When I went to find Xiaobai, I put him in the arms of my second father!"

"This is a bag of thirty gold coins that I just found in the carriage. The captain said that he asked people from the Yufu Kingdom for you."

"Well, thank you Uncle Shen! I want to go and see my second dad, where is he!"

"In your carriage!"

.........

After Li Qingniu came to the carriage, he pulled away the fur with trembling hands. Li Er Er was still lying peacefully in the fur, holding his already stiff hand and crying.

"Second Dad, you said that you would take me to study in the county town! You are so dishonest!"

"You just leave like this, how can I explain to my father and mother! Second father!"

"Second Dad, I'm the only one on the road ahead! No one answered me why, no one taught me how to write, no one called me to eat, no one covered me with a quilt at night, and no one called me to wake up in the morning!"

"I'm sorry, Dad, I shouldn't have left. I shouldn't have left you to find Xiaobai. If I didn't go, you wouldn't go out to find me, and you wouldn't be killed!"

"But, second dad, I can't avenge you, Lao Shen has already killed them."

"Second Dad, don't worry, no matter how difficult it is in the future, I will definitely reach the county seat, study hard, and make some achievements! I will also unlock the family's secrets!"

Lao Shen watched for a long time, and saw that Li Qingniu's mood had stabilized, so he asked:
"Xiao Niuer, what's your plan next!"

"Uncle Shen, help me bury my second dad together!"

"Okay, they carry some simple axes, knives, iron nails and so on in their handlebar carts. I'll borrow them. It's just that it's a barren mountain. Where can I find suitable wood?"

"Remove the carriage, Second Dad is gone, so there's no point in keeping the carriage!"

"What about the fur on the car?"

"Leave a few good ones for my second dad, and help me distribute the rest to some uncles and uncles who drive the car! Thank them for their care along the way."

"Okay! Is there anything else I need to do?"

"No, thank you Uncle Shen!"

Holding the iron sword, Li Qingniu took advantage of the sunset glow and mountain breeze in the evening, found a flat place not far from the official road, sat down, looked at the endless mountains in the distance, the rushing river below the mountain and The setting sun talks to itself.

"Second dad, you once told me that a place with wind and water and open terrain is a treasure land of geomantic omen. I think this place is good! You should be here! I will come back to see you."

So he dug the ground with an iron sword all night, and finally dug a big hole.

Old Shen looked at Li Qingniu from a distance, and didn't bother him. He called a few experienced handlebars to help change the carriage into a simple coffin, and put Li's second body into it with some fur padding.

With the help of everyone, finally at dawn, Li Laoer was buried beside the official road.

Old Shen took out his saber, moved towards a huge boulder as tall as a person, and chopped it with skill, and a smooth stone fell, which can be regarded as a tombstone.

It says, "Second Dad is buried here."

Li Qingniu looked at Second Dad's grave and tombstone, looked up at the rising sun in the east and the endless official road in the north.

Facing Old Shen who was standing at the side, he said firmly: "Uncle Shen, I don't believe that the fate of people is determined by the heavens! I must learn the art of directing qi, and I must be like Fairy Qingniao, who is called a master of the transformation stage. Even a saint! Even a person far beyond God! I want to control my own destiny!"

Lao Shen looked at Li Qingniu who grew up overnight, and wanted to say that you dare to say it, but he still agreed:

"I believe in you! But take your time."

"Well! But the most important thing now is to go to the county to study first. This is the second dad's greatest last wish! Let's go!"

"Let's go!"

In the twilight of the morning, after all, nothing can stop the step forward, not even death and parting.

　There are always a lot of important things to be buried in order to move into a future of ignorance.
