C35 (2/2)

Some of the village's old neighbors had come to pay their respects. The old man had made quite a few friends before his death and they had gotten along well.

”Xiao Sheng, don't be too sad. If anything happens, just tell us. We will also bury your Master's glory.” What was the use of saying all of that? The old tutor was already dead, and even if he drew a perfect end to his life, it would still be useless.

The old man had spent his life organizing funerals for others. He probably didn't think that this would be the funeral for him.

The night before the funeral, I stayed up late at night in the shop. The old man's body was lying in the coffin. I burned some paper for the old man, and suddenly a cold wind blew in through the door.

The moment I stood up, I saw two figures walk in. These two people were dressed in black trench coats and bamboo hats, I was a little doubtful why there were people here in the middle of the night. Furthermore, I didn't hear from the old man that there were friends outside.

”Are you two here to pay respects to my master?” I picked up the sandalwood and handed it over. The two of them reached out and knocked the incense out of my hand.

”Brat, hand over your token!” Token? What Token... I think these two are here to cause trouble.

”I don't understand what you two are talking about. If you're not here to pay respects to my master, then please leave!” He was being too polite.

”Stinking brat!” If you don't hand over the command medallion, I'll take your master away. ” One of them walked up to the coffin and stretched out his hand to help the old man up. I picked up the axe on the table and swung it at him.

I started to fight with the two of them. I swung my axe and hacked down on the spirit tablet table. Since I didn't get hit, the mourning hall became a mess.

”Bam!” The man turned around and kicked me in the chest, knocking me to the ground.

”Let's go!” The other person said in a low voice. He then walked over to the coffin and picked up the old man's corpse.

”You can't leave …” I reluctantly got up from the ground, picked up the axe and rushed forward again.

”This kid's bones are really hard!” Before I could get close, I was knocked to the ground. Following which, a figure appeared in front of me. Tang Yufeng followed me and with a wave of her hands, closed the door.

The two of them immediately put down the old man's corpse in a daze. Then, they took out something similar to a ghost catching magic tool from their waists and rushed towards Tang Yufeng.

Tang Yufeng's figure flashed. At the same time, her nails extended like sharp blades and stabbed into the chest of one of the men, immediately leaving behind five bloody holes.

”Ah …” The other man hurriedly opened the door and ran out. I chased after him with the axe in my hand, but he was nowhere to be seen. Tang Yu Feng swung her hand and threw the man's body away.

Tang Yufeng's body flickered and returned to normal. She continued, ”Are you alright?”

I whispered, ”Why are you here?”

”I followed you. I didn't expect that Liu's master would have passed away.” Fortunately, Tang Yufeng had appeared in time. Otherwise, things would have gone south.

I rearranged the mourning hall, but what puzzled me was why did they rob the old man's corpse? I walked into the backyard and entered the old man's room. The old man's room was very clean.

I looked around and saw that I was almost on my hands and knees, looking under the bed. There was a suitcase under my master's bed.
