()"Thank you. Please search (@￥) to see the most complete and fastest updated version." Xie Yutang said awkwardly in a small voice, and ran to his mother's side as soon as he finished speaking.
Fengjiu smiled and looked down at her bandaged wound.
"Burn the bodies of our people, take their ashes back, and send them back to their families." The old man instructed the secret guards. He looked at the bodies and sighed in his heart.
The flames shot up in the night sky, lighting up half the sky. A gust of wind blew, and the air also emitted a foul smell...
The secret guards did as he said, burned the bodies of several people, picked up the ashes, and put them in jars from the Qiankun bag.
Fengjiu saw that they were skilled and well prepared. Obviously, this was not the first time they had done something like this. It seemed that they had handled the deaths of their previous secret guards in the same way.
Yes, burying them together and burning them together will prevent future troubles. After all, no one knows whether there will be wild animals digging up the bodies buried in the ground and eating them. Burning them this way and bringing the ashes back to their relatives will not leave them without anyone to worship them after they die.
"Let's go! Let's go back first." The old man said, motioning them to get on the carriage. The guards who had been hiding in the dark also appeared and followed the carriage on both sides, and the group continued to move forward.
As the sky gradually brightened, the carriage approached the next town. The old man frowned slightly and looked at Feng Jiu who was sitting beside him. He asked, "Xiao Jiu, what are your plans next? Do you have any relatives in the city?"
Hearing this, Fengjiu shook her head.
Seeing this, the old man pondered, his eyes fell on his injured arm, thought for a while, and said: "We are going back to the master's house this time, and we will also settle down in the Xie family's master's house in the future. If there is one more you, I am afraid it will be...
Xie Yutang, who was standing by, heard this and glanced at Feng Jiu, who was sitting beside him with her head lowered. He then said, "Grandpa, why don't you let him wear the clothes of a secret guard and pretend to be a secret guard of our mansion? Otherwise, let him be my servant and stay by my side."
Hearing this, Fengjiu raised her eyes and looked at him in surprise.
"What are you looking at? I just don't want to owe you a favor. Don't you have nowhere else to go? In that case, you can stay by my side and be my servant. I can't promise you anything else, but I can definitely provide you with three meals a day."
Hearing this, the old man thought for a moment and looked at Fengjiu: "If you really have nowhere to go, then just stay with Yu Tang!" The young man looked even calmer than Yu Tang, with a simple and honest look between his brows. From his ability to read people, he knew that he was not a person with bad intentions.
After hearing what the old man said, Fengjiu finally smiled, nodded, and wrote the word "thank you" on the table with water.
"That's great. Then you can play with me in the future." Xie Shisi said happily.
"Let me tell you about our Xie family. After you arrive at the Xie family, you should stay with Yu Tang and don't get impulsive with others. After all, we are not the direct descendants of a big family, so it is difficult for us to have a say."
Fengjiu nodded, and then listened to the old man telling the three of them what they should pay attention to when they arrived at the Xie family.
After hearing those words and so many rules, Xie Yutang looked a little dissatisfied and said, "Grandpa, why do we have to live in the master's house? We are doing fine in our own home."
