Guizhen

Chapter 406 Walking smoothly

Zhu Yinghuai hurriedly saluted, "Old man is serious. Xiaodao and Master passed by here, and would like to ask you for a bowl of water."

The old man scrutinized Zhu Yinghuai and Zheng Kun's faces, and said with a smile: "The two Taoists come in to rest, and I will fetch water and make tea."

Zheng Kun thanked him warmly, and followed Zhu Yinghuai into Yizhuang.

The coffin has been placed for many years, but it is old but not decayed.Every coffin has been taken care of cleanly, and even exudes the unique brilliance of wood due to years of wiping.

The tray is packed.Zheng Kun nodded secretly.It can be seen from this that the old man did not treat Gu Daguoshi's family badly.

The master and the apprentice sat on the twig by the door, put their hands on their knees, watched their noses, noses, and hearts.After waiting for a while, the old man brought a pot of hot tea and three rough porcelain bowls.

"There is no good tea in the mountains." The old man poured a bowl of hot tea and handed it to Zheng Kun, "Master Dao can make do with it."

Zheng Kun took the bowl with both hands, "You are too polite." He lowered his head and took a sip of water, and couldn't help but praise: "Good water, good tea."

"You can drink." The old man gave a thumbs up. "The water is mountain spring water. It is clear and sweet. If you come here during the dog days, you don't need to cook it. Drinking it directly is like honey water."

Zheng Kun listened with a smile, nodding in agreement from time to time.

While sipping water, Zhu Yinghuai peeked at the old man's expression.Seeing that he is like a hospitable host, taking the trouble to introduce to Zheng Kun where there are beautiful scenery and delicious food, I feel relieved.

Zheng Kun picked up the teapot and refilled the old man's half-full bowl, "Your accent doesn't seem to be from the capital city."

As soon as the words came out, it seemed that the thorn in the old man's heart had been shaken, and he smiled with trembling lips, "Master Dao has good ears. I am indeed not a native of the capital." Looking back at the coffin placed in the middle , murmured: "It is my blessing to be able to be with Gu Daguo as a companion."

"Ah? Gu Daguo?" Zheng Kun's eyes widened in surprise, "Gu Daguo was not buried?"

A trace of teasing flashed in the old man's eyes, "Didn't the Taoist come here for Master Gu?"

Don't look at people serving the dead all day long, but they are not easy to fool.Zhu Yinghuai pretended to drink water.

"We were just passing by." Zheng Kun laughed haha, "The old man is very funny."

The old man also laughed, and after laughing, he sighed wistfully: "When Master Gu Daguo just passed away, there was often a Daoist who pretended to pass by here, came in to melt a pot of yellow paper, and cried a few times."

The astonished expression on Zheng Kun's face became more and more serious, "Is there a colleague who came here? Are they... not afraid?"

Although Emperor Yuanhe didn't say it clearly, everyone from the top to the bottom of the Shenji Division believed that it was not allowed to pay homage to Gu Daguoshi.

Regardless of life or death.

These divine agents who had been favored by Gu Daguo had never paid homage to them, and they didn't even dare to inquire about the whereabouts of Gu Daguo's bones.The colleagues who were not close to Mr. Gu Daguo before his death came to express their condolences without any hesitation.

Zheng Kun lowered his head in shame, stared at his own reflection on the water and remained silent.

After so many years of stealing and stealing, not only did nothing happen, but he even gave up his original intention.

If it weren't for Miss Lu Wu, these old magicians would still be fighting each other now.

With sore eyes, Zheng Kun said with sobs: "We should have come here to send some paper money to Gu Daguo. We... did something wrong." As he spoke, he reached into his sleeve pocket to pull out a handkerchief to wipe his tears.However, when I reached into it, I found nothing.Only then did I remember that a clean veil was wrapped around my feet.

Zhu Yinghuai handed her handkerchief to Zheng Kun, and said comfortingly: "Master, it's never too late as long as you have the heart. Gu Daguo has a spirit in the sky, and I won't blame you."

Zheng Kun sniffed, "The old man has always been generous. But..." Before he finished speaking, he began to cry.

The old man seemed to be used to seeing the Daoist who cried whenever he said so, so he wasn't surprised at all, "Cry slowly. I'll prepare paper money for you." Then he stood up and murmured, "Oh, there will be no money when we get here." Don't cry."

Zheng Kun snorted, sobbing and asked: "Does Wu Dewei cry when he comes?"

"Wu Dewei doesn't cry." The old man took out a large bag of paper money from the corner, "They come here to do business. They don't stay for a moment. They, it's funny to hate them."

"What's wrong!" Zheng Kun wiped his tears, "Your place is clean and there is no smell at all."

The old man was amused by him, "Master Dao is really a funny man."

Zheng Kun grinned and showed an ugly smile, "Anyway, I don't like Wu Dewei's style. You don't know, their behavior is getting more and more absurd, and they don't even allow convenience on the street. It's not okay to hide people behind their backs."

"Ah? Can't be convenient on the street? Then... where is the convenient place to go?" The old man wanted to go to the toilet a little bit after he said this.

"Anyway, you can't be in the back alley. Wu Dewei is crazy now!" Zheng Kun earnestly urged, "If you go to the city, you must drink less water. It is really wronged to be dragged in because of this kind of thing."

Zhu Yinghuai pressed her fist to her lips and coughed twice.

Almost done.

Just talking about something and nothing is too time-consuming.Watching the sun go down soon.Do you have to stay here overnight?

Zheng Kun glanced at Zhu Yinghuai, "Drink more hot water. Maybe you walked in a hurry and choked on your lungs."

He was full and couldn't drink any more.

Zhu Yinghuai's muffled voice should be yes.Whatever Master says is what it is.If you can't drink it, you have to drink it.

"Some time ago, a few Wudewei came." The old man placed the futon in front of the brazier, "When he was talking, his nostrils were a little upturned. But... he doesn't look like an unreasonable person. How can he be so stupid that he doesn't even care about convenience in the street? "

"That's right." Zheng Kun stood up and walked to the old man, "It's for my own convenience. What's in the way of them? Eh? What are they doing here? It's also for Master Gu?"

"No." The old man raised his jaw and pointed to the coffin next to him, "They moved Grandma Gu's body away. They said they wanted to investigate carefully."

"What are you looking for?" Zheng Kun bowed to Grandma Gu's coffin again and again, "You are shocked. Whoever disturbs your cleanliness, you will settle accounts with them at night. Don't be polite."

"Grandma is not hypocritical. She went smoothly when she left, and she also went smoothly when she came back." The old man sighed: "Master Gu's family is good-natured. They never cause trouble for others."

"Then..." Zheng Kun looked around vigilantly and lowered his voice, "What exactly is Wu Dewei investigating?"

The old man stared at Zheng Kun, "I'm really not sure what you want to check."

Zheng Kun said embarrassingly: "You can't tell, so let's go without saying."

"However..." The old man moved a step forward and brought it close to Zheng Kun's ear, "It should be to see his stomach." As he spoke, he raised his finger and pointed to his stomach.

Zheng Kun was enlightened in an instant like a divine enlightenment.

That's right, Gao Tang wanted to see if there was any stillbirth in Grandma Gu's stomach.
