My master is invincible

Chapter 350 Nine Coffins (73)

I froze for a moment. Could it be that the old hero will suffer retribution for killing the Japanese devils?Too nonsense, right?According to this, none of the descendants of those anti-Japanese heroes will end up?

The old lady Lu seemed to see through my thoughts, smiled bitterly, and said: "My Lu family is a little special, so I have suffered these retributions."

Originally, I wanted to ask her what was special, but seeing her expression, I dismissed the idea and asked her: "Your nine sons, no, eight sons are willing to chop off a finger?"

She nodded and said, "It was discussed last night. They are willing to chop off a finger each, but... Lao Qi disagrees."

Hearing these words, I feel that my outlook on life has been subverted. Could it be that the rest of the Lu family are dutiful sons?
This... this... is like peach blossoms in winter, isn't it possible?
Seeing that I hadn't spoken, Mrs. Lu stood up with one hand on the wall, and said, "Xiao Jiu, those sons of mine are just greedy for money, and their nature is not bad. They haven't done anything harmful to the world these years. Otherwise, old man A few of them were already beaten to death."

I said 'oh' and didn't say a word. I can't say in front of Mrs. Lu that your sons are all scumbags.Isn't this looking for a draw?
Later, I mentioned the matter of the old hero to her, and said: "The soul of the old hero was poured with my blood. I am afraid that he has been seriously injured. We should hurry back to the village and send the body of the old hero to the grave at night, so that the old hero Enjoy the incense offering earlier."

In this regard, she did not speak, but stared at the wall, muttering: "Your master is really a god."

Hearing this, I froze for a while, and then it was my so-called master, and I asked her why.

She said: "Your master told me that after the death of the old man, his soul would be injured. I thought it was a bit exaggerated, but I didn't expect...he is really a god."

Judging from her tone, it seems that she admires my master very much, but, as my apprentice in name, I don't even know who the master is.

At this time, she spoke again, and she said: "Xiao Jiu, when I see your master in the future, say hello to your master for me, and say that my Lu family will always remember his great kindness and virtue, and I will never forget it." .”

I felt a little strange, since I have a master, Master Jiang is my senior brother, and Mrs. Lu and Master Jiang are siblings, wouldn't it be more appropriate for Master Jiang to pass on the message?
So, I told her what was on my mind.It's not that I don't want to spread the word, but that I don't know who my master is, let alone when I can see him.

When Mrs. Lu heard what I said, she smiled and said, "He has already been kicked out by your master. You can't see him. Only you can see him."

Hearing this, I was even more puzzled. Master Jiang was kicked out?impossible?I am very clear about Master Jiang's status. When I was in Hengyang, Lao Wang told me that all the high officials from the capital were rejected by Master Jiang. It must be that Master Jiang's status in society is quite high.

With his status, he was kicked out by his master?

I was stunned for a long time, but I couldn't figure out the reason, so I stopped thinking about it and asked Mrs. Lu, "You said earlier, I'm sorry for the old hero, but you killed the old hero. What's going on?"

She sighed and said, "At the beginning, I thought your master was exaggerating and didn't pay much attention to it. How could I know, hey! If we had prevented it earlier, it wouldn't have happened."

After finishing speaking, she shrank a lot, coughed a few times, and asked me to cut off the little finger of Lu Yaodong's left hand, saying that taking his finger off would make up all nine fingers.

To be honest, I am particularly disgusted to do some disrespectful things to the corpse, but if I don't cut off his fingers, I won't meet Jiu's requirements, and the old hero can't be buried safely.

When faced with this choice, I hesitated for a while, then listened to Mrs. Lu, burned some yellow paper and incense next to the corpse, took out the dagger, and cut off one of Lu Yaodong's little fingers.

Some things, in retrospect, are really unbelievable. It was this action that made me almost die in the next coffin removal, which can be regarded as retribution.

After cutting off Lu Yaodong's finger, I found a piece of yellow paper, wrapped it up, and put it in my pocket.

According to what I mean, it is to carry Lu Yaodong's body back to Lujia Village.The old lady Lu said that the soul of the old hero had been injured, and she carried Lu Yaodong's body back. If the two bodies collided, there would be an accident, so she put Lu Yaodong's body in the "Zhaode Temple" and waited for the funeral to be done.

I can't say anything about it.However, the way I looked at Mrs. Lu changed. As a mother, she actually put the body of her own son in the 'Zhaode Temple', which...is a bit unreasonable.

Maybe this is human nature!Everyone has different persistence and beliefs in their hearts. When choosing some things, they will first consider things close to their own persistence and beliefs, and the persistence and beliefs of Mrs. Lu may be an old hero.

Because of this, I was not in high spirits, so I hurriedly tidied up at the 'Zhaode Temple', and then I asked Stutter to help Mrs. Lu back to Lujiacun.

On the way, Mrs. Lu asked me to be the main coffin bearer this time. The people who carried the coffin could not invite professional Eight Immortals, but some amateurs, saying that they were afraid that the spirit of the Eight Immortals would rush to the soul of the old hero. (Note: The coffin master, that is, the helm of the coffin, does not need to carry the coffin, but needs to lead the way in front of the coffin, and occasionally supports the coffin with his hands to make the coffin stable. Generally, the master coffin man is not required for funerals, and the Taoist priest who leads the way Or the host can do it.)
Listening to what she said, I was a little puzzled. I am also an Eight Immortal, and I also have a kind of aura in my body. It seems a bit unreasonable for me to be the coffin master.

So, I asked her why.

She glanced at my left hand and said, "You are Jiuzhi, corresponding to the coffin of Jiuzi. By the way, Xiaojiu, the tomb you dug in Taihang Mountain should be a round hole, right?"

I nodded and said, "It's the round hole."

"A round hole is fine!" She nodded in satisfaction, and said, "When burying, you have to be very careful. The coffin can only fall into the hole once, and you can't move it a second time, otherwise it will destroy the feng shui of the entire tomb."

I hummed and told her about the superficial things.

After hearing this, she was slightly taken aback, and said, "I didn't expect you to really use superficial methods. It seems that the old man's funeral can go as smoothly as your master said."

I was already numb to that so-called master, and I didn't intend to ask her anything. Instead, I stopped and said, "Ninth brother, I remember you said, just touch the water with a dragonfly, just a little bit, as long as there is water, why? Mrs. Lu just let me order?"

Just as I was about to speak, the old lady Lu spoke first, and she said, "Small boy, you can do more with a superficial touch, but the old man's funeral is quite special, it pays attention to ninety-nine return to one, and this one is the superficial touch." .”
