Today, Deren Hall was closed for the whole day and didn't do any business. It turned out that all the shop assistants had gone to Young Master Pu's house to help.
It turned out that after Young Mistress Pu died suddenly last night, Pu Siyuan suddenly became depressed and didn't care anymore.
The steward of Deren Hall had to inform the Pu family's ancestral home first. He didn't expect the old master's response to be that the Pu family didn't have such a daughter-in-law, so how could there be a funeral?
The steward had no choice but to ask Pu Siyuan. In the end, Deren Hall was temporarily closed for the day. All the servants who could go out had to go to Young Master Pu's house to help arrange the funeral.
Pu Siyuan was originally a little famous in Pushan Square, so most of the people who came to pay their respects were actually for the sake of Pushan Taoism.
In the middle of the main hall, there was a good coffin, and the surrounding walls were full of white sails.
There was a wreath full of elegiac couplets. On the altar in the middle, there was a big black word "foundation", and there was a pair of white candles on the table.
Pu Siyuan was dressed in mourning today and sat next to the altar.
People from all walks of life came in an endless stream, offering elegiac couplets and gifts. After that, they all comforted Pu Siyuan, who also returned the gifts one by one.
Today, to Pu Siyuan's surprise, his wife's cousin, Qian Mingjun, also came.
He cried as soon as he entered the door, pointed at Pu Siyuan, and cursed, saying that if he hadn't taken away his wife, Qian Mingjun wouldn't have died so young. Pu Siyuan was so angry that he almost scolded him.
Fortunately, there were many guests. In the end, Qian Mingjun left with hatred, and Pu Siyuan was also very angry.
Yi Tian looked at the side and just smiled. When he saw Pu Siyuan's gaze, he nodded slightly.
Pu Siyuan's eyes were red today. It was obvious that he had cried a lot. From time to time, he would pick up a sweat towel to wipe the corners of his eyes.
He looked sideways at the elegiac couplet closest to him and found it interesting. He hurriedly asked a servant to come forward and fetch it.
The steed has not stretched a thousand miles.
The great bird first breaks the nine night wings.
It was signed by Juxing Village, Duan Yugang, and Yi Tian.
No wonder Yi Tian's expression was so strange when these two people came just now. It seemed that he was happy in his heart. If this matter didn't work out, he had to settle accounts with him.
Pu Siyuan's's's face, so he had to ask the servant to burn it.
In the evening, most of the guests had returned. Pu Siyuan then instructed the servants to disperse.
Only two servant girls were left to keep watch. Pu Siyuan saw that there was no one around and hastily withdrew himself to the secret room in his room. He saw that Yi Tian was already inside, drinking and waiting.
The two of them greeted each other and sat down. Pu Siyuan quickly asked, "Brother Yi, will that person really not come? Is it possible that if we really go out of the city to bury him tomorrow, he will definitely appear? "
Yi Tian gave Pu Siyuan a reassuring look. This person would most likely not come to cause trouble tonight.
However, it was impossible for him to leave the Gu worms that he had painstakingly cultivated behind. Once the caster and the Gu worms were too far apart, both parties would not be able to sense each other, and the Gu worms would easily go out of control.
Wasn't this person's meticulous plan to take away a living person? It would be meaningless if he was dead.
Besides, there were too many people here. He didn't have the ability to snatch the corpse in front of so many people.
The night passed uneventfully. The next afternoon, Pu Siyuan brought his servants to carry the coffin to the graveyard and buried it directly.
Qu Shi's cousin also followed. Before the coffin was buried, he rushed up to hold his head and cried loudly. People who didn't understand the situation would think that he was the deceased's husband.
Pu Siyuan buried his wife Qu Shi according to mortal etiquette. After praying in front of the grave, he rushed back to Pu Shan Lane with his servants.
Midway, he ordered his servants to quickly return to De Ren Hall to take care of it, in case there was not enough manpower.
When he was alone, he returned the way he came. When he arrived at the predetermined location, he saw that Yi Tian was already waiting there.
The two of them looked at each other without saying a word and quietly lurked not far away from the grave.
Pu Siyuan also borrowed a Mi Luo Handkerchief from the clan. When Yi Tian saw that it was a woman's artifact, he smiled. After Pu Siyuan saw it, he explained that the Mi Luo Handkerchief was his aunt's artifact.
After understanding, the two of them did not say anything and waited quietly.
The Mi Luo Handkerchief covered the two of them and then directly blended into the surrounding environment. If they didn't touch it, they wouldn't be able to detect it.
In the dead of night, a black shadow appeared in front of the two of them. Yi Tian used his Spirit Light Eyes to take a closer look. It was really Qian Mingjun.
He took a shovel and walked to the front of Qu Shi's grave. He kicked down the tombstone and began to dig the grave.
After digging a few times, he found the coffin. Then, he stretched out his hands and chanted an incantation. A green light flashed on his right hand. Then, he used his two hands to pull the coffin out of the ground like pulling a radish.
When the coffin was placed on the ground, Qian Mingjun began to push the lid of the coffin with both hands. However, he couldn't move it.
Pu Siyuan, who was squatting on the side, quickly jumped up and rushed toward Qian Mingjun.
Yi Tian saw the two of them arguing from a distance and then began to fight. Pu Siyuan was still holding a long sword. Spirit Qi wrapped around the sword and the sword hummed.
However, Qian Mingjun took out a bone spear. Pu Siyuan was stunned for a moment before the two of them began to fight.
After the long sword slashed the bone spear in the air, it was stuck on the bone spear and didn't move.
After Pu Siyuan's attack failed, he quickly took out his small silver sword. This time, he held the sword hilt with both hands. After injecting his spirit qi into the sword, he directed the silver sword to attack Qian Mingjun.
A white light flashed and the silver sword nailed into a white bone shield. Yi Tian was surprised that Pu Siyuan's two magic treasures couldn't do anything to the other party. Just as he was surprised, the coffin lid suddenly flew up.
Cai Wenbin jumped out and shouted, "Clear Sky Sword". He stabbed out with the long sword in his hand. This happened so suddenly that Qian Mingjun hurriedly used the white bone shield to block again.
After the two of them attacked separately, Qian Mingjun's spirit qi gradually ran out and he could only beg for mercy. Pu Siyuan didn't care so much. His eyes burned with anger as he repeatedly urged the small sword to stab at Qian Mingjun.
Yi Tian finally saw what a battle of attrition was. Pu Siyuan and Cai Wenbin relied on their continuous attacks to exhaust Qian Mingjun to death.
In the end, the bone shield didn't have enough spirit qi to support it and was sent flying by the small silver sword.
Cai Wenbin's sword took the opportunity to pierce through Qian Mingjun's body. Blood spurted out, and it seemed that he wouldn't be able to survive.
Cai Wenbin walked up and found a bamboo flute on Qian Mingjun's body. He waved at Yi Tian, and Yi Tian also nodded in response.
Qu Shi had already been carried out by Pu Siyuan. It turned out that this coffin was a double-layered one with air holes around it. The chosen grave had been tampered with in advance, and bamboo pipes were buried around the grave to ventilate it.
When they were buried, Pu Siyuan had personally jumped down to align the bamboo pipes with the coffin's vent. He had also wrapped gauze between the pipes as a buffer, which allowed the two of them to breathe after being buried for a long time.
Under Yi Tian's instructions, Pu Siyuan used his spirit qi to blow the bamboo flute. Two yellow corpse worms slowly crawled out of Qu Shi's ears and flew to Qian Mingjun's body, entering his nostrils. The three of them felt their hearts tremble.
A moment later, Qu Shi woke up. Pu Siyuan was about to cry when he saw this. He was about to go up and hug his wife.
Qu Shi looked around. When she saw Qian Mingjun lying on the ground, it was unknown whether he was dead or alive. She suddenly rushed up and cried loudly.
Pu Siyuan was stunned. He heard Qian Mingjun gasp for breath and say, "I can't take you away." After saying this, he stopped breathing.
Qu Shi cried even more sadly. She turned around to look at Pu Siyuan, tidied up her hair and clothes, and said, "Cousin and I were originally in love, but unfortunately, your Pu family was big and my father coveted your Pu family's power, so he separated us. All these years, I have been waiting for my cousin, waiting for him to come and take me away one day. I didn't expect that when we met again, we would be separated by life and death. "
After saying this, she directly bumped into Pu Siyuan's sword and her heart was pierced. She spat out large mouthfuls of blood and fell on Qian Mingjun's body.
It wasn't easy to find the culprit and get rid of the corpse worm for his wife. Pu Siyuan, who was originally happy, was stunned.
He never expected the final outcome to be like this. Two streams of tears flowed out of his eyes. He turned around and left, muttering, "Did I do something wrong? Did I do something wrong?"
After saying this, he ran toward Pu Shan Square.
Cai Wenbin looked and shook his head. He couldn't say anything.
This Junior Martial Brother of his was famous for being affectionate. For his wife, Qu Shi, he fell out with his family.
Originally, Qu Shi's aptitude was above his, but because of love, his cultivation had been stuck at the fifth level of Qi Refinement for many years.
He hoped that from now on, he could return to the path of cultivation and be duty-bound.
After taking the storage pouch from Qian Mingjun's body, he asked Yi Tian to help him bury the two of them.
Now that they were dead and the matter was over, he had nothing to say.
Yi Tian, who was on the side, was also surprised. Today's ending was not what he wanted to see, but what was done could not be done.
Originally, when he was investigating Qu Renjie's grave, he found that someone had deliberately led the snake here. It seemed that Qian Mingjun was angry with his uncle.
After he finished his studies, he wanted to wait for an opportunity to take revenge, but he was already dead, so he could only do something to the grave. He couldn't be at ease even if he died.
After examining Qu Shi in Pu Siyuan's house, he felt that this matter was not simple. If they wanted to directly harm someone, there was no need to use corpse worm.
Yi Tian reckoned that they had other intentions, so he and Pu Siyuan thought of a way to lure the snake out of its hole.
Based on the fact that the corpse worm and the caster couldn't be too far away, they used a scheme.
First, they let Qu Shi take the breath concealing pill in Deren Hall and fake her death. Then, they made a double-layered coffin. Then, they would announce the death during the day. The night before the funeral, they would set up the compartment and let Cai Wenbin hide in it.
In Yi Tian's opinion, Qian Mingjun originally planned to use the corpse worm to control Qu Shi and fake her death.
Then, he would take advantage of the Pu Family's funeral to bury the corpse. However, he would steal the corpse in the middle of the night. No, he would steal the person and then run away.
Now that Yi Tian had disrupted his plan and both of them had died, he really didn't know if he had done the right thing or not.
It seemed that this guy was also the one who hired the killer last time. Everyone was even this time. In the future, they didn't owe each other anything and went their separate ways.
