The Leisurely Life of a Young Man in the World of Cultivation
Chapter 123 The Death of Old Deng
On the way, Lu Changfeng asked curiously,
"Dad, what's going on at today's funeral? What was that butterfly?"
"And why were all the adults at the funeral men, except for Aunt Jiang's family?"
Seeing that this brat had finally asked about it, Lu Yuange felt like he had finally found an opportunity to show off.
"Hehehe, you have no idea what's going on!"
"I don't know the exact name of that butterfly, but everyone calls it the Rebirth Butterfly!"
"This Rebirth Butterfly is said to be able to guide deceased cultivators to rebirth!"
According to older generations, this butterfly represents the deceased's popularity; the more butterflies one has, the better one's reincarnation will be!
"However, there's another rumor that this butterfly can support the deceased on the other side. When the King of Hell sees that this guy has so many helpers, would he dare not give him a good family?"
"I think the second one is more likely! Otherwise, why are they all cultivators?"
At this moment, Lu Yuange chirped softly.
Lu Changfeng was greatly shocked.
Holy crap, that makes so damn much sense!
"Then why aren't there any women?"
When asked about this, Lu Yuange shrugged.
"I'm not quite sure, but it seems to be something about women being able to give birth, but funerals represent death, so the living and the dead shouldn't meet!"
"But it depends on everyone's habits."
"But I think it's because men have more yang energy and are stronger, so they can do more damage when fighting ghosts!"
puff!
Upon hearing the last sentence, Lu Changfeng couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Goodness, is that how it can be explained?
The idea that it's best not to say what needs to be said does make a lot of sense.
However, today's funeral in the cultivation world truly shocked him.
But to his surprise, a few days later, the third and fourth brothers started causing trouble.
"Old Deng, wake up! Look what I brought you!"
Lu Yuange, who was sleeping, opened her eyes and was immediately startled.
"Holy crap, you little brat, where did you get that coffin?!"
Indeed, at this moment, the two little brothers, the third and fourth, were actually carrying a coffin and placing it in front of Lu Yuange.
"Hehehe, Old Deng, didn't you say you've been having trouble sleeping lately? Well, we found you a little house; it's really cool and cozy inside!"
Lu Yuange was speechless.
Good grief, is that supposed to be cool? It's more like you're about to die! And where did you two get that?
But what could I do when my two children were so filial? I couldn't refuse them with their expectant eyes!
"Okay, okay, just this once!"
He lay down inside, and as the lid closed, Lu Yuange was overjoyed.
"Wow, this is really cool. Why don't we lie down for a bit?"
"Yeah, I'll just lie down for a bit!"
But to his surprise, he fell asleep while lying down.
Sensing the silence inside the coffin, the two little ones outside felt a sudden pang of fear.
Then they pushed open the coffin lid and saw Lu Yuange lying inside with his eyes closed.
"Third Brother, is Dad dead? If so, does that mean we can have the feast?"
Upon hearing the word "feast," Lu Changlei couldn't help but swallow hard.
"Old Deng shouldn't be dead, he's probably just asleep!"
"How about I die? I really want to eat it!"
Ultimately, the desire to attend the banquet took precedence for the two, so they immediately set to work.
So, following Aunt Jiang's example from a few days ago, they immediately started preparing. It must be said, these two kids are truly born in the new era; their hands-on skills are unparalleled.
They just did a simple job, and they actually managed to recreate some of the original flavor.
Just then, Lu Rou came out of the second bedroom yawning and suddenly saw Lu Yuange in the coffin and two little ones dressed in mourning clothes.
At that moment, she felt as if the sky had fallen, and then she collapsed to the ground with a thud, muttering to herself.
"This can't be, this can't be! How could Old Deng just suddenly be gone!"
Then, trembling, she started sending messages to Lu Changfeng, and after several attempts, she finally managed to send the message.
Meanwhile, Lu Changfeng was still asleep when his older sister started sending him a barrage of messages. He didn't pay much attention and, half-asleep, clicked on the messages.
Then I heard my older sister's sobbing, her voice catching her breath.
"Xiaofeng, something terrible has happened! Come quick! Something's happened at home! Dad, Dad's gone!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Changfeng jumped out of bed.
Holy crap, do you even know what you're saying?
Although he always sabotages Harden, Harden is undeniably skilled.
Besides, he's a Foundation Establishment cultivator with a lifespan of 200 years. He's only 50 this year, so he still has 150 years left to live. How could he suddenly die?
But after calculating, it seems like Old Deng is alright.
But no matter what, as a son, he had to go and see!
He immediately put on his clothes and sent a message to the second manager asking for leave. Then he hurriedly headed towards the inner gate!
Lu Changfeng's mood was extremely heavy on the way.
When Lu Changfeng arrived at Lao Deng's house inside the gate, he was dumbfounded. He saw several white wreaths placed at the entrance.
Upon entering the room, I saw Lu Changlei and Lu Yue, two little rascals, each holding a piece of paper and happily folding origami flowers!
Lu Changfeng didn't pay any attention to this.
They're just kids, what do they know?
Upon reaching the living room, Lu Changfeng saw Xie Zhixing with a grief-stricken expression. Seeing this, Lu Changfeng's heart skipped a beat.
hiss!
Oh no, is Old Deng really dead?
After all, Xie Zhixing, Lao Deng's good friend, is here, so there can't be any mistakes!
Upon seeing Lu Changfeng, Xie Zhixing hurried over.
"Xiaofeng, your dad left us in such a hurry. You're the only man in the family; you should be the one supporting us!"
"I've already asked your sister to call your mom; she should be here soon!"
"Now, take good care of the people who have come to offer their condolences, and leave everything else to me!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Changfeng couldn't stop his tears from flowing. Although he had often tricked Old Deng before, and even almost drove him crazy once, he still liked Old Deng very much.
But he knew this wasn't the time to cry, so he quickly wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes and responded with a soft "yes."
"good!"
As soon as he spoke, Lu Changfeng got to work. Over the next twenty minutes, the number of people coming to pay their respects steadily increased, clearly indicating that Old Deng had quite a few friends during his lifetime.
If it weren't for Xie Zhixing, I probably wouldn't even know many people like him.
Just as Lu Changfeng was silently thanking Xie Zhixing, his older sister finally rushed over, supporting their mother.
"Waaaaah, Lao Lu, how could you suddenly disappear!"
Seeing his mother sobbing uncontrollably, Xie Zhixing quickly went over to comfort her.
"Little sister, don't cry, Lao Lu, Lao Lu is like this... sigh! Life is unpredictable! Little sister, you have to hang in there!"
Upon seeing their mother arrive, the two little ones immediately rushed over happily.
"Mom, can we start the feast now?"
Upon hearing the two children's words, the mother immediately burst into tears.
Lu Changfeng couldn't help but sigh at this.
Perhaps these two little ones can't yet understand the pain of losing a loved one; they probably think they're about to be treated to a feast!
Lu Changfeng immediately forced a smile and patted the two of them on the head.
"You must attend the banquet!"
Immediately, the scene erupted in weeping again.
