Chapter five hundred and sixty third funeral
The next morning, we went to the funeral home according to the funeral time of the Ren Detachment.
The entrance of the funeral home was already filled with painting circles and black curtains were hung, and the atmosphere was very solemn.
After all, the Ren Detachment was an officer. In addition to the fire brigade officials, there were also some government officials who came to attend the funeral.
In the middle is a black and white photo. From the photo, I really saw the appearance of Ren Detachment. I was a soldier with a heroic face.
A woman in her thirties, with a little girl, stood next to the portrait, wearing a black dress, sobbing and swallowing even more. She should be the wife and daughter of the Ren Detachment.
I looked at the poor mother and daughter, and my eyes were also a little red.
I secretly swore in my heart that I must solve this matter with the Sima family, otherwise more tragedies will occur.
Last time the Bai family appeared at a real estate development site, and claimed more than ten lives in one go. I don’t want such a tragedy to happen again.
Deputy Mayor Pang also appeared in the mourning team, holding a small white flower in his hand. When passing by the portrait, he placed the small white flower under the portrait.
Soon, the portrait was filled with little white flowers.
The officers and soldiers of the firefighting troops walked in, stood up straight one by one, took off their military caps, and saluted the portrait.
Most people in the city implement cremation. When the time comes, the body of the Ren detachment will be burned by the crematorium sent to the funeral home. So before that, I had nothing to do, and I didn't need to do it. This may be the easiest funeral I have ever performed.
The appearance fee of 100,000 yuan is indeed quite easy to earn.
When the time came, the body of the detachment was pushed into the crematorium. By the time it came out again, it had turned into a box of ashes.
The daughter of Ren Detachment, a little girl in a black dress, held the heavy urn and kept crying: "Dad! Dad!"
The cemetery of Ren Detachment has been selected and buried in the cemetery in Shanghai.
The funeral convoy was a fire truck with white flowers hanging in front of it, lined up in a long line, slowly passing through the city and arriving at the cemetery.
Until this point, I didn't do something a little.
Although the people in the city pay attention to cremation and cemeteries, the burial ceremony still retains traditional funeral rituals.
I was wearing a black suit, which made me look like a fairy-like person and a master.
I first lit a candle in the cemetery and burned some paper money into the cemetery.
Then, he walked around the cemetery, shook the corpse-spiriting bell while walking, and recited some spells of rebirth.
Because I did not use the coffin, I asked the daughter of Ren Detachment to carefully place the urn in the cemetery.
Anyone who has been to the cemetery knows that every cemetery is small and square. If you put an urn inside, you can hardly put anything else. Unlike the cemetery in rural areas, it is digging very much, and coffins are placed inside.
After putting the urn, I asked the wife of Ren Detachment to hold the military uniform that Ren Detachment had worn during his lifetime and a military cap, and placed it solemnly and seriously on the urn.
After doing all this, nothing will happen.
I took out a yellow talisman from my pocket, and it was like a magic trick. I shook my fingers in front of everyone's eyes. The yellow talisman burned, and bursts of amazement came from the crowd.
My fingertips were clamping the burning yellow talisman, sticking to the four sides of the cemetery, and I walked around the cemetery, finally letting go of my fingers, and a strand of flying ashes fell gently.
This is a "quiet spirit talisman", which can allow the wronged souls in the urn to gain inner peace.
To put it bluntly, it can allow the soul of Ren Detachment to have better rest.
This Jingling Talisman is an additional project I gave. I feel embarrassed to receive the 100,000 yuan appearance fee if I don’t do anything more.
The cemetery was quickly sealed up, and several firefighters planted two small green pine trees in front of the cemetery.
Lei Zi took out a string of firecrackers and hung them on the tree, and said to everyone: "When you hear the sound of firecrackers, don't look back, so as not to arouse the longing of the dead!"
The sound of firecrackers rang back and forth over the cemetery, and the funeral procession slowly walked out of the cemetery.
At the entrance of the cemetery, Deputy Mayor Pang patted me on the shoulder: "Master Xiao, you did a good job. Thank you very much for what you did for the Ren Detachment! The 100,000 yuan appearance fee will be transferred to your account in the future! Keep up with your efforts, hoping to do things on the viaduct more beautifully!"
Deputy Mayor Pang really kept his word. On the way back, Ku Junwei received a text message for remittance transfer on his mobile phone.
Lei Zi put his hands behind his head and hummed a little song happily: "Today, the 100,000 yuan is really easy to earn! Things that I never dared to imagine before are now like dreaming!"
Chen Shiba said: "It will make you happy with 100,000 yuan? Our goal is two million! Oh, no, it is three million. Didn't Master Huang Qi say that he would give you a private reward of one million?"
Ku Junwei nodded: "We have done the viaduct, and we will naturally become more famous in the circle. Our appearance fee will naturally increase in the future, and good days will be coming!"
"Xiao Jiu, why don't you speak? Why? Are you still unhappy after making money?" Lei Zi asked me.
"No!" I shook my head and said, "I was just thinking, although I am rich now and earning a lot of money, I seem to have lost my goal of making money. I am trying hard to make money, and I have made so much money, why?"
Leizi said: "You are stupid, of course you are for a better life. In the future, you can eat delicious food, drive luxury cars, wear famous brands, and live in life!"
I sighed and lit a cigarette silently: "In the past, the purpose of my hard work was to build a new house for my family. Later, I realized this dream and I worked hard to make money, wanting to make my parents live a better life. Later, my parents disappeared, and Shuiwa Village became an unmanned ghost village. I seemed to have suddenly lost the goal of making money, with so much money in my pocket, I don't know where to spend it!"
Lei Zi patted my shoulder: "Brother, people cannot be resurrected. Those of us who are still alive should look forward to life, right? We should live better to be worthy of our dead relatives, right?"
Speaking of this, Lei Zi suddenly grinned: "If you really don't know how to spend the money, then give me your share!"
"Go to you!"
I cursed angrily. The first half of the sentence is quite sensational and reasonable, and the second half is simply "inhuman" and full of routines!
On the way back, we purchased some money for fragrant wax paper and asked someone to find a big black dog to take it to the construction site to prepare for the evening.
Back at the presidential suite, I came to Liu Hongyi's room and brought her lunch.
Liu Hongyi was wet all over, with white smoke rising from her head and sweaty face. She seemed to have just been exercising her internal strength.
These days, Liu Hongyi has been exercising her skills on her own every day, restoring her skills bit by bit.
Liu Hongyi took the lunch box, stretched her nose and sniffed it, and said happily: "Oh, it's so good, there is actually braised pork I like to eat! Xiao Jiu, you are so nice!"
I smiled and said, "Eat quickly, look at you, just like a greedy cat, you can be so happy with a bowl of braised pork!"
Liu Hongyi held the lunch box and couldn't wait to pick up a piece of braised pork in her mouth: "Um, it's delicious! You don't understand. I like to eat braised pork made by my mother the most. Every time I can eat a large bowl myself. Unfortunately, I have run away now and can never go back to the Honglian Sect, so I can't eat braised pork made by my mother the most!"
"Your mother is also from the Red Lotus Sect?" I asked.
"Nonsense!" Liu Hongyi shrugged: "My mother is the leader of the Red Lotus Sect!"
"Awesome! Before, I only knew that you were the saint of the Red Lotus Sect. I didn't expect you to be the daughter of the Red Lotus Sect, a rich second generation!" I gave a thumbs up and said enviously.
"Go away, what a rich second generation? Our Red Lotus Sect is not as rich as the scattered sect! By the way!" Liu Hongyi put down the lunch box and looked straight at me: "Xiao Jiu, there is something I have always wanted to ask you!"
"What's the matter? Tell me!" I nodded.
"Your hair... is..." Liu Hongyi pointed at my white hair. I was about to answer her question, but she heard her say the second half: "Where is the perming and dyeing? The craftsmanship is so good, it is natural!"
Just as I didn't know how to answer, Liu Hongyi laughed: "I'm teasing you, I know it's not perm-dying! I just want to ask, why did your hair become like this? Ah, by the way, are your father and your mother doing well recently? Will they be shocked if they see your white hair?"
"Let's have dinner first, why are you talking so much!" I asked Liu Hongyi to have dinner first, but she didn't know that something big happened in Shuipu Village.
Liu Hongyi curled her lips: "What? I think I'm talking nonsense now, right? Humph, I'll be in your ears every day from now on, and I'll make you so much trouble!"
After Liu Hongyi finished her lunch, I lit a cigarette and talked to her about Shuiwa Village.
At some point, it started to rain outside, and the raindrops hit the windows, but the atmosphere in the room was very heavy.
After listening to my story silently, Liu Hongyi pursed her lips tightly and didn't say anything for a long time.
Liu Hongyi has a good relationship with my parents. My parents have always regarded her as her future daughter-in-law and treat her very enthusiastically. Now, when I hear the bad news about my parents, Liu Hongyi feels very uncomfortable.
Liu Hongyi walked up to me, stretched out her fingers, and gently stroked my white hair: "Xiao Jiu, don't worry, I will definitely be by your side and kill the bastard of the Gu Sect with you, avenge my uncle and aunt, and the people of Shuipu Village!"
I held Liu Hongyi's hand tightly and didn't let go after a long time.
The sentence "I will definitely be by your side" is enough.
After dark, we had enough food and drink, and walked out of the hotel, and a business car had already come to pick us up.
I didn't let Liu Hongyi go to the scene at first, but Liu Hongyi insisted on following her and said that she is now a member of our team.
Chapter completed!
