Mushroom Man

Chapter 15: Funeral of the younger sister, execution of family law

The rain is drizzling and the wind is blowing.

All I heard was a loud thunder!
Three thousand miles of black clouds deceived the sky, and in an instant, a golden branch cut through the clouds.

Lightning and thunder illuminated the Wu family's land, where a storm was about to come.

“Weiyang!!!”

suddenly!

A grief-stricken sound broke the tranquility of the night.

The Wu family members, who had already turned off the lights and gone to rest, were awakened from their dreams.

Soon, the news spread throughout the Wu family.

The unlucky guy who was in the limelight during the branch family's reign, his sister... died.

Cause of death: drug overdose and exhaustion.

Early in the morning, many bored members of the Wu family went out of their homes in the pouring rain to watch the excitement.

Wu Liang was seen with red eyes, pulling a black coffin, and about to leave the clan territory.

Along the way, many members of the Wu family who knew about the interrogation couldn't help but talk and point fingers when they saw him like this.

"This kid is too good at pretending. He was the one who killed his sister, and yet he still pretends to be heartbroken. I really don't know who he's pretending for..."

"That's right, it's only been one night, and even the coffin is ready. This must have been planned long ago."

"In my opinion, he might have deliberately killed his sister because he was worried that the clan leader would punish him with a caning, so he wanted to avoid the caning."

Everyone acted unscrupulously, constantly adding fuel to the fire and making up stories about Wu Liang at will.

Wu Liang heard everyone's discussion clearly.

But he didn't care about it, as if he completely ignored everyone.

After all, these were actually within his expectations.
Wu Liang dragged the coffin and headed towards the checkpoint of Zhaodi Town outside the Wu family's territory, under the disgust, contempt and ridicule of the crowd.

The martial artist who had been guarding the town entrance saw Wu Liang dragging a coffin as if he wanted to leave the town for burial, so he stopped him without saying anything.

"Where are you going now?"

"What's with the coffin behind you?"

When Wu Liang saw the other party, he did not put down the straw rope that was used to push and pull the coffin.

He simply bowed lightly towards Wu Xingzhe.

"Master, my younger sister unfortunately passed away last night."

"It was my momentary confusion that killed her..."

"Master, I beg you to allow me to bury my sister. When I return, I will confess and make amends to you..."

Upon hearing this, Wu Xingzhe nodded without comment. He was surprisingly tolerant of this and did not delve into Wu Liang's previous deception.

He waved his hand and was about to let him go.

However, an old and majestic voice sounded at this moment: "Wait!"

An old man with a white beard, accompanied by a group of Wu family law enforcement officers dressed in tight clothes, surrounded Wu Liang.

The members of the Wu family who had come to watch the fun couldn't help but look stiff and timid when they saw the old man and the disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall he brought with him.

Obviously, this person is the law enforcement patriarch of the Wu family.

He is ruthless in his actions and does not tolerate any sand in his eyes. He is quite famous in the tribe.

The old man with a white beard spoke again with an angry look on his face.

"Now that the patriarch's grace period has expired, where are you going? Are you trying to escape family law?"

Obviously, he believed that the farce before him was completely staged by Wu Liang in order to avoid punishment.

"The clan leader's words are golden. Punishment is inevitable. Even funeral matters must be carried out after the clan rules are implemented!"

The disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall were ruthless and strode towards Wu Liang, intending to take him down directly and deal with him on the spot.

Wu Xingzhe, who was supposed to be watching from the sidelines, saw this scene and his eyes flickered slightly. His originally calm expression was slightly disturbed.

Wu Xingzhe chanted Buddhist mantras and actually spoke well of Wu Liang at this time.

"Although this boy's behavior is despicable, the female donor is ultimately an innocent and pitiful person."

"Her body is still unresolved, so let this boy see her off to her final resting place, and then we can make a decision."

When the law enforcement disciples saw Wu Xingzhe trying to stop them and had already pinned Wu Liang to the ground, they couldn't help but pause and looked towards the law enforcement elder.

At this time, although Wu Liang was pressed to the ground, he was not panicked.

He had expected the law enforcement elder to come to his door.

Even if no warrior came to plead for mercy, he would be able to accept it.

It's nothing more than three hundred lashes. As long as he isn't beaten to death, he'll have a chance of reaching that place.
At the same time, the law enforcement elder brow trembled slightly and said, "Master Wu is really kind-hearted."

"But if we allow this boy to escape punishment in such a despicable way, where will the dignity of our Wu family's family rules be?"

Upon hearing this, Wu Liang struggled to raise his head and look at the law enforcement elder.

"Family elder, my younger sister died because of me. I feel so guilty!"

"I just wanted to see her off to the end, to spare her the hardship of this storm. I'm not trying to escape punishment."

"After I bury my younger sister, I will have no objection to how the elders deal with me."

His voice was sad, as if expressing his true feelings.

However, the patriarch remained unmoved and immediately wanted to reprimand the law enforcement disciples to take action.

Seeing that he dared to disobey him, Wu Xingzhe snorted coldly and the fourth level of aura spread out.

When everyone saw this, their scalps went numb and they were too scared to act rashly.

The law enforcement elder's face froze.

He really didn't expect that he would have to consider other people's opinions when dealing with his family members.

No wonder Wu Liang had the courage to embarrass the clan leader. It turned out that he was relying on the Songzi Temple.

The law enforcement elder glanced at Wu Liang and his tone finally softened.

"Well, since the master of the Songzi Temple has interceded for you, I'll give you some more time."

"But I must punish you today, otherwise I will have a hard time explaining myself to the clan leader."

"Today, I will first beat you with a hundred sticks as a warning to you. After you bury this little girl, you can come and receive your punishment!"

He found a way out for himself and glanced at Wu Xingzhe after he finished speaking.

Wu Xingzhe nodded slightly, tacitly agreeing to this decision.

The law enforcement disciple breathed a sigh of relief and immediately found a long bench and carried the pale-faced Wu Liang onto it.

Surrounded by the Wu family members who braved the rain to watch the show, the law enforcement disciple's expression became increasingly serious.

In the hands of two of them, a black light appeared and turned into two mushroom-shaped sticks with oval umbrella-shaped caps on top.

A turn of mushrooms, big stick mushrooms!
The effect of this mushroom is to form a strong and durable stick.

The mushroom master holds a large stick of mushroom and can control the force of hitting people at will.

If the tribesmen who are punished on weekdays understand the ways of the world, they can rely on the magical effect of the big stick mushroom to suffer less.

But today.
"Hit me honestly!"

At the command of the law enforcement elder, the two law enforcement disciples immediately swung their clubs with all their might.

Suddenly, the sound of flesh breaking was heard.

Before Wu Liang could even scream, his throat was blocked by unimaginable pain.

He gritted his teeth and dug his fingers into the bench, forcing himself not to faint.

Strands of blood flowed down, staining the rain on the ground scarlet.

The whispers of the Wu family members were also drowned out by the clapping sounds.
