Tiandao Planters

As Tianyuan City got closer.Li Xiao's mood became more and more complicated. When he left a few months ago, who would have thought that he would set foot in Tianyuan again.

It can be said that Tianyuan has carried too much grief for him, this place, if it is possible, this time, he will never set foot again.

Gradually driving into Tianyuan, Li Xiao's expression became more and more silent. When he caught a glimpse of a flower shop by the roadside, he said, "Stop for a moment, I want to buy a bunch of flowers!"

Du Sheng, who was driving, heard it and didn't ask any more questions. He slowed down and parked the car on the side of the road.

After getting out of the car and entering the flower shop, I saw that there were many flowers in different colors in the shop, which were still planted in flower pots, and facing the floor-to-ceiling windows, there were also a row of shelves. There are some trimmed and wrapped bouquets.

And a little bit further inside the flower shop, in front of a long table, there is a girl who looks seventeen or eighteen years old, with scissors in one hand, trimming the flowers she just cut in her hand.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, the black woman looked up and saw someone entering the store, she put down the scissors and the bouquet in her hand, came up and asked, "Sir, what flowers do you want to buy?"

"White roses, 36 pieces." Li Xiao said.

When he returned to Tianyuan this time, Li Xiao wanted to remove his mother's ashes and move them back to Linshan to be buried in a Taoist temple, and this white rose was his mother's favorite flower.

"Okay, sir, please wait a moment." The girl said with a smile, and then turned back to the table where the bouquet was trimmed earlier, picked up the scissors, and picked out the better-looking ones from the sea of ​​flowers that were competing to bloom. White Rose.

Not long. The 36 white roses were selected, and then the girl returned to the table with the flowers in her hands, and began to carefully trim the messy and lush branches and leaves, as well as the wood thorns on the branches.

After trimming all the flowers and branches, the girl picked up a piece of plain wrapping paper from the side, carefully wrapped the bouquet, tied it with a bow with a ribbon, and held it in front of Li Xiao.

After receiving the flowers, Li Xiao asked, "How much?"

"This kind costs five yuan each, and you want 36 pieces. That's 180 yuan." The flower shop girl said.

Take out 200 yuan.After handing it to the girl, without waiting for her change, Li Xiao walked out of the flower shop holding the flowers in his hand.

took the money.The girl looked at the authenticity.Immediately put it in the pocket of the apron.As soon as he took out the twenty change, he saw that Li Xiao had already walked out of the flower shop, so he ran out quickly and shouted, "Sir, looking for your change!"

Looking back at the girl calmly, Li Xiao didn't say anything, just took the money and walked back to the car.

"Turn left at the intersection ahead and go to the suburban cemetery." After getting into the car, Li Xiao said.

After hearing Li Xiao's words, Du Sheng started the car and left the street.

……

It is the only state-owned cemetery in Tianyuan. Compared with another cemetery in Tianyuan City, it is indeed much cheaper here, and the people buried here are mostly It is to choose that kind of cheap wall burial grid and enshrine the spirit card.

Entering the cemetery, Li Xiao came to a house that was repaired like a temple after walking through a tomb lined with stone steles. Except for the direction of the entrance, the other three walls of the house were covered with narrow grids, with stickers of the deceased on them. information such as portraits and names.

And Li Xiao's mother's wall burial grid is at the innermost corner of the wall, and it is at the bottom.

This kind of wall burial lattice in a bad location is the cheapest, and you can have the right to use it for ten years for only 2000 yuan.

However, Li Xiao felt very sad to enshrine his mother's ashes here, just because the Wang family at that time refused to even buy a cemetery, and even such a seemingly simple wall burial grid was still the pain of Li Xiao when he was young. I begged.

Kneeling slowly on the ground, he placed the flowers in his hand beside the grid. Li Xiao stretched out his hand and gently touched the photo on the grid. Inside was a beautiful woman in her twenties. photo.

With a sore nose, Li Xiao whispered softly, "Mom, Xiaoxiao came to see you! How are you in heaven? Do you miss me?" While speaking, silent tears fell down.

"In the past, Xiaoxiao was still young and incompetent. Even if you leave mom, you still have to live in such a small place, which makes you feel wronged." Letting the tears fall, Li Xiao didn't wipe them away, and continued to murmur.

"It's all over now, Xiaoxiao doesn't want you to be wronged anymore, I will take you back to Linshan, build a big house for my mother, and guard you for the rest of my life."

After talking intermittently for a long time, Li Xiao seemed to be poured into all the sadness, and finally got up and wiped away the tears on his face, turned his head and said to Du Sheng who was behind him: "Help me find the person in charge here, I want to get my mother The urn is removed."

Nodding his head, Du Sheng walked out, and after a while he led a cemetery worker over.

"Hello, sir, how can I help you?" the staff member asked.

"I want to take away my mother's ashes and take them to other cities for burial," Li Xiao said.

"That's it~ Then you just need to bring the key of the wall burial grid, and the ashes storage certificate, and show your own ID card, and go to register for the record first, and that's it." The staff explained to Li Xiao.

"Can I do it now?" Li Xiao asked.

"Please follow me." The cemetery worker said, leading Li Xiao out.

He took Li to the archives room of the cemetery, and saw an old man with glasses sitting at the table and burying his head in sorting out some files. The staff member stepped forward and said, "Old He, this gentleman must Return the ashes and register for him."

The old man raised his head, pushed the reading glasses on his nose, then glanced back and forth at the table, took out a form, handed it to Li Xiao, and said, "First fill out this form, and pass your Take out the documents, I want to find the files at that time."

Silently, he took out a worn cloth bag from his pocket, opened it, and saw a small green book and a gray-looking key inside.

After placing the small notebook on the table, Li Xiao took out his ID card.Put them on the table together, and then began to fill out the form.

And Lao He, who was in charge of the registration, first picked up his ID card, compared Li Xiao's appearance back and forth, then put it back on the table, then took the ashes storage certificate, got up and rummaged in the filing cabinet behind up.

Not long after, Li Xiao finished filling out the form, handed it to the old man, and said, "Is it all right?"

Read the form in your hand carefully.The old man said: "Sign your name here. Then you can go to collect the ashes. Just give the key to the staff in a while."

After signing his name under the form, Li Xiao and the others came to the place where the wall burial was enshrined, led by the previous staff member.

Open the grid.Which is placed in front of the urn.It is a spiritual card.It is engraved with "Mother Li Rouzhi's Spiritual Tablet", which is actually just a wooden board, and the characters on it are crooked.It's very untidy, Li Xiao carved it himself because he didn't have the money to pay for the engraving of the spirit card.

Taking out the spirit card, seeing the urn wrapped in white cloth inside, he carefully took out the urn, Li Xiao just carried the urn and walked out.

At this moment, a middle-aged man was standing at the door, staring at Li Xiao with a frown.

It's just that Li Xiao at this time was immersed in memories, but he didn't notice the gaze staring at him.But Du Sheng and Bai Hua, who were following behind Li Xiao, noticed it instantly, and directly cast their eyes on that person.

As soon as the middle-aged man felt a man and a woman behind Li Xiao looking at him, he turned around in an instant without any hesitation, and started to leave the cemetery.

Now that the other party had left, Bai Hua didn't pay any more attention, but Du Sheng frowned at this time, feeling puzzled in his heart. The middle-aged man looked about the same age as himself, and his cultivation was also in the middle and late stages of the Profound Rank. Du Sheng should know people.

Just searching through his mind, Du Sheng couldn't find any information that matched this middle-aged man, which made him suspicious. Could it be that he was a hermit?But why did he frown as if he was thinking when he looked at Li Xiao?

After walking all the way to the parking lot, Li Xiao got into the car and saw that Du Sheng was distracted, so he asked, "Du Sheng, what's the matter? Is there any problem?"

"Guanzhu, just now there was a middle-aged man who looked at you with strange eyes, and that person should have a middle-to-late-stage cultivation of the Mysterious Rank, but I am not familiar with it. I always feel that there is something wrong with it." Du Sheng frowned, and said what was on his mind.

"Don't worry about him. If there is a problem, he will definitely come to us again. If the enemy is the enemy, he will just overtake him." Li Xiao couldn't figure out why, but it was more because he believed that it was the Wang family faction. here.

And this means that as soon as he entered the range of Tianyuan, he was already known by the Wang family, but Li Xiao couldn't understand the sudden retreat of that person, but he was not afraid of anything.

Back at Tianyuan this time, Li Xiao never thought about avoiding the Wang family's sight, even if he sent someone to stare at him, so what?

Sitting in the driver's seat, Du Sheng thought about it, so he didn't mention it anymore, started the car immediately, and asked, "Monastery Lord, where are we going now?"

"Go to Xicheng District and live in Yuanxi Hotel directly." Li Xiao thought for a while and said.

Yuanxi Hotel is a five-star hotel. The entire hotel has [-] floors. Except for the restaurant on the lower six floors, the upper twelve floors are guest rooms.

Tomorrow night, the engagement banquet of Wang Lin's two marriages will be held in the banquet hall on the sixth floor of Yuanxi Hotel, and Li Xiao chose to live here in order to save running errands tomorrow.

Hearing Li Xiao's words, Du Sheng drove out of the cemetery and headed towards Xicheng District.

After arriving at Yuanxi Hotel, he parked the car in the underground parking lot. Li Xiao held the urn and led Du Sheng and Bai Hua to the hotel entrance.

However, when the hotel doorman saw the spirit tablet and urn in Li Xiao's hand, he immediately stopped him and said, "Sir, you can't bring these into the hotel."

"Who made the rules?" Li Xiao said.

"There is no regulation, but this is a hotel after all, if you enter with the urn spirit card, it will affect other guests, so..." the doorman explained.

"I don't want to embarrass you, go and call your manager! Maybe he will let me move in." Li Xiao said.

"This...Okay, wait a moment!" The doorman hesitated for a moment, but thinking that this matter was not easy for him to solve, he said something to Li Xiao, turned around and entered the lobby.

Not long after, the doorman walked over with a woman in a suit and leather shoes.

"You are?" Liang Xue sized Li Xiao up and down, feeling a little uncertain. This young man was wearing a Taoist robe and was holding an urn in his hand. He didn't feel like he was here for dinner and lodging; besides, he didn't know this weird young man at all. How could he be sure that he would let him move in? (To be continued..)
