Pig Killer

Chapter 356

The next day, the sky was gloomy. "Is it going to rain?" Huang Zhongchang looked at the gloomy sky and asked, "Does God know that General Yu is going to have a funeral? God will cry."

"What a coincidence!" Shen Hui'e smiled and shook her head when she heard that.

"You can't stop people from making associations." Zhang Jixian blinked and said to them.

"It doesn't matter what others think. Let's not let our imagination run wild." Shen Hui'e looked at them with amusement and said, "It's almost time. Yu Luo should be here by now!"

Just as he finished speaking, the guard came to report that Yu Luo had arrived.

Shen Hui'e and the others tidied their clothes and went to the camp gate.

After a brief greeting, Huang Zhongchang looked at Yu Luo with his dark eyes and asked, "Can we go now?"

"Okay!" Yu Luo nodded.

"Is there anything wrong with us dressing like this?" Huang Zhongchang said, looking at himself worriedly.

Yu Luo looked them up and down at their simple attire and said, "No, no. This is good enough."

"But we don't have mourning cloth." Zhang Jixian looked at him with his dark eyes. After all, he was going to worship, so he needed a piece of mourning cloth and be polite.

"I'll tie it for you when we get to the mourning hall." Yu Luo stared at them with his dark eyes, feeling deeply moved. An outsider was thinking about his own general. Sigh...

"Please get in!" Yu Luo stretched out his hand and said while looking at the carriage.

Shen Hui'e and the other two stepped onto the carriage one by one, stepping on the benches.

Yu Luo led the way and it took about an hour to reach the destination.

White cloth strips were hung on the trees on both sides of the street, and funeral music could be heard from afar.

Yu Luo took them to take the mourning cloth handed over by the steward and tied it around their waists, and then after informing, they entered the mourning hall.

Under Yu Luo's instructions, Shen Hui'e and others burned incense and paid tribute to General Yu.

After General Yu, who was kneeling on the left side, returned the greeting, General Yu called out to Huang Zhongchang, who was being led away by Yu Luo, and said, "Mr. Huang, please wait a moment."

"Hey!" Huang Zhongchang turned around and walked in front of General Yu. "General Yu, what can I do for you?"

"I am deeply grateful to Mr. Huang for his righteousness and risking his life to save my father." Major General Yu choked up.

"Wow..." The crying sound rang out.

Huang Zhongchang's eyes turned red and mist appeared in his eyes when he heard this.

"When the princes were in trouble, my father rushed to rescue them regardless of everything. However, when my father was in trouble, they stood by and watched, and no one came. Only Mr. Huang was brave enough to risk his life to rescue him. He fought his way into Taoqiu City and allowed me to see my father for the last time." Major General Yu said with a face full of resentment.

The princes who came to attend the funeral were embarrassed and avoided the sight of General Yu guiltily.

How to say it? The dead are the greatest, don't bother with children.

"Mr. Huang will be my elder brother from now on, dear elder brother. Please accept my respects, elder brother." Major General Yu knelt on the mat, tears in his eyes, and said solemnly.

Huang Zhongchang's pupils shrank when he heard this, and he knelt down in front of him, waving his hands in panic, "No, no, I am not worthy of this! The righteous armies of the world are one family, and if General Yu is in trouble, I will do my best."

"You deserve it, you deserve it." General Yu looked at him with red eyes and choked up, "Brother, please don't refuse anymore. I can't repay you for saving my life. Please agree to it!"

Huang Zhongchang looked at him sincerely and said, "General Yu thinks highly of me." He sniffed and said, "I don't ask to be born on the same day as you..."

"I only hope that we can die on the same day of the same month of the same year!" Major General Yu said solemnly, grasping his hands.

"You treat me like a brother, I will sacrifice my life for you." Huang Zhongchang looked at him with a moved expression. "Even if we turn against each other one day, I will protect your family." General Yu held his hands tightly and said.

General Yu looked up at the relatives and friends who came to pay tribute to his father and said, "Please be my witnesses. In front of my father's coffin, Mr. Huang and I will become sworn brothers to comfort my father's spirit in heaven."

Yu Luo and his companions quickly placed the incense, candles and offerings that they had prepared long ago on the mourning hall.

"Father, today in front of your coffin, Brother Huang and I are sworn brothers." General Yu knelt in the mourning hall and said in a sonorous voice, "My brother and I will fight against the tyrannical court together. I hope that Father's spirit in heaven will bless us to overthrow the court." He added with a firm look in his eyes, "Even if I die on the battlefield, it is worth it for a man to be born in this world."

"Well, this is what a real man should do. Holding a three-foot sword, you should accomplish unprecedented feats." Huang Zhongchang looked at him excitedly and said.

"Heroes are made by the times, and heroes also emerge at the right time!" Major General Yu said with deep emotion, looking at his sincere gaze and turning away guiltily.

"I am just a butcher, I don't understand the general situation of the world, brother, you tell me what to do!" Huang Zhongchang stared at him with a dark gaze and said seriously, "Although I am a butcher, I also know the words of loyalty and righteousness. I will do my best to overthrow the tyrannical court. I will share weal and woe with my brother." He raised his right hand and said word by word, "Anyone who violates this will be struck by lightning."

Major General Yu raised his right hand and said, "Anyone who disobeys this order will be struck by lightning."

"Good brother!" Huang Zhongchang looked at him with his black and white eyes and smiled innocently.

"Brother!" Young General Yu took a deep breath.

"The king has arrived!" a voice suddenly came from the door.

Upon hearing this, General Yu looked towards the door and cursed in his heart: Damn it, he finally decided to come.

During the days when the body was kept there, apart from arranging for servants to come, he did not show up at all.

"Major General Yu, let's go and welcome the emperor!" Mr. Zeng said, looking at his own major general who was still kneeling in front of the hall.

"Oh!" Major General Yu staggered to his feet, holding his knees with his hands.

"Be careful..." Huang Zhongchang looked at him worriedly and said.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a thud, and he fell to his knees again. He stood up three times but couldn't get up.

"Brother, are you okay?" Huang Zhongchang looked at him with concern.

"It's okay." Major General Yu said with a sob.

I was originally planning to go to the mourning hall to welcome the emperor, but now seeing Young General Yu like this, it is really not a good idea to go, nor is it a good idea not to go.

Just as they hesitated, the king strode in.

"Where is the young general?" The king opened his eyes slightly and glanced around the mourning hall.

"Your Majesty." Mr. Zeng stepped forward and bowed, "My young general is so sad."

"Alas... I am so sad that I can't sleep all night after losing the pillar of my country!" The king sighed heavily, burst into tears, and sobbed, "The dead cannot be resurrected, so don't be too sad." Then he added, "I am here to see General Yu off for the last time."

"It's rare that the king still cares about my father." Young General Yu said sobbingly, with a strong sense of dissatisfaction in his tone.
