Doctor and Fox

Chapter 40 The Funeral

The next morning.

"Winter doctor...yesterday...yesterday..."

"Today is Master Lu's funeral, shall we go?"

"Um……"

Hesitating to speak as if he couldn't see Wu Guang, the man who had been watching all night wiped his face with a clean towel.

Even though my whole body felt exhausted like being crushed countless times by a huge stone, after waking up, I still didn't want to give up the way to see the old man for the last time.

"Little fox, will you come to see me off for the last time?"

The bony hands gently twisted his ears, and his voice was low and hoarse.But he was dumbfounded and didn't answer this question, and now he proved it with his own actions.

Ah Hum was still not there, and only Doctor Dong was left to accompany him on the journey. When he arrived at the gate of Lu's mansion and saw the white gauze draped with his own eyes, he wondered if it was his Nankeyimeng.

Thinking of the sight of the old man yesterday, the relieved smile and the lonely walking figure, he couldn't help but tighten Doctor Dong's cuffs.He was thinking, if he grows old like Master Lu and leaves in the future, will it be much better if he has someone to accompany him when he leaves.

Doctor Dong dressed him and himself in pure white mourning clothes, which he said should be worn by those who come to worship when someone passes away to express their grief.He lowered his head and glanced at the white all over his body, how similar it was to his own fur.

But looking at why it feels so empty, it seems that this whiteness is too sad, or why his nose smells salty and wet, and why his eyes are beginning to be blurred by the water.

While walking, his center of gravity almost tilted slowly and fell into Doctor Dong's arms. Doctor Dong took out a towel to wipe his tears, but he didn't stop Wu Guang from crying silently.

"He will have a better life in his next life."

"Well... I believe you."

The Lu Mansion, which was extremely deserted in the past, unexpectedly had more people. People in white clothes were coming and going, making the quiet mansion even more noisy. Wu Guang and Doctor Dong found their only acquaintance among the crowd, Steward Li.

Butler Li stood quietly outside the mourning hall in the main hall, and saw the two people who came before him bow, then turned around and entered the mourning hall, standing on one side and knelt down, while kneeling on the main seat were two familiar faces, their expressions were too calm So that it is impossible to fabricate a trace of sadness.

Except for Wu Guang and Doctor Dong, among the crowd's crying, perhaps only Steward Li, who couldn't help but burst into tears, was the most real. The rest of the people brought by the Lu family brothers and sisters only had a little tear around their eyes.

Lu Jishan didn't bring his child, maybe he didn't admit that his child belonged to the Lu family.

When Wu Guang looked at the two people in front of him, a red light involuntarily appeared in his eyes, and just as he was about to gnash his teeth, Doctor Dong quietly blocked his line of sight and led him to the last row.

"Let's send Lu Yuanwai off for the last time."

Unable to suppress the unbearable pain in his heart, he knelt down.Doctor Dong took a look at him, and the uncomfortable look on his face made him feel heartbroken, and then he knelt down to accompany him.

Wu Guang couldn't help but look at the coffin placed behind the spiritual case in the middle.The coffin is very good, even if it is buried deep in the ground for hundreds of years, it will not rot, but since then the person sleeping in the coffin has already begun to rot, so what is the use?

The look in my eyes couldn't help but dim...

After burning the paper money, as the time approached, in the sound of "Wake up!", everyone prayed three times together and got up.

The coffin was carried behind, and Lu Jishan and Lu Jimei walked in front to lead the way, spreading yellow and white paper money to form a Yellow River road.

Everyone in the middle cried and shouted, and slowly followed their footsteps out of the mansion and onto the street.

It seems that there are rumors on the street that today is the day of Lu Laizhen's funeral. On both sides of the route out of the city today, there are quite a few people on both sides to see him off for the last journey, with expressions full of sadness.

When Wu Guang thought of the slow-motion scene after many years, he still felt that that day was so white that there was no color, and he still couldn't see it off after he arrived.

Walking slowly at the back, supporting the weeping Li Butler, who was about to collapse to the point of weakness, he followed the team out of the city gate.When he turned his eyes to the side of the road and turned back, Ah Hum, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, suddenly appeared beside them.

"Why are you here?" Doctor Dong was the one who asked, and his expressionless wolf eyes turned slightly towards Doctor Dong.

"Master Li is quite good to me, I should come to see him off."

Originally, he always had a kind of contemptuous hostility towards ordinary human beings, but after hearing Wu Guang tell him about Lu Lai's truth, he suddenly realized that it was inexplicably pitiful for him to walk alone like that.

Even knowing that birth, old age, sickness and death are extremely normal things, for some reason, it has a very different feeling when it enters the eyes.

"Could it be, have I experienced this before?" He thought melancholy, although he still couldn't remember.

He only remembers himself, who was once a spiritual pet.

The team walked to the mountains outside the city, buried the coffin in the soil with excellent Feng Shui under the instructions of the Feng Shui master, and sealed it with mud one by one. If there is no accident, it may not be opened again for a long, long time possible.

"Heh..." When they were in a daze, there was a low sneer from the side of the three of them, and they turned their heads away only to find that the laughter came from Butler Li, and his eyes were fixed on Lu Jishan's figure .

Wu Guang looked at that line of sight, and in his perception, he could faintly sense the emotions of the Lu family brothers and sisters, feeling a distorted pleasure of relief.

"Grandpa Li..." He wanted to ask the butler, but hesitated.

"They don't want the master and his wife to be buried together. If they want the master, he will be alone forever."

Butler Li was silent for a while before explaining lightly.

Wu Guang was startled, and looked at Doctor Dong and Ah Heng.

Doctor Dong quietly gave him a "shh" gesture, and he nodded obediently, but the slightly long nails in his hands pierced his palms.

After all the ceremonies were over, everyone slowly began to evacuate. The brothers and sisters of the Lu family were the first to leave due to an excuse at home. In the end, only Wu Guang and Steward Li stayed where they were.

When Lu Jishan and Lu Jimei left, Doctor Dong looked at them, and Lu Jishan left him a smile with no meaning, which made his heart tighten, and the alarm bell rang loudly.

"Is something going to happen?" he thought.

"It's getting dark, let's go back." Ah Hum first suggested, Doctor Dong nodded and looked at Wu Guang and then at Butler Li.

Butler Li stood in front of the new grave with a tired expression: "I want to accompany my master here. You go first." Then he looked at Wu Guang who was about to speak, and waved: "Wu Guang, you follow you too Young master, go back. Just come and accompany my master when you have time."

"it is good…"

Just like that, he was taken away by Doctor Dong. On the way back to the city, he kept turning his head to look at the position guarded by Butler Li, and slowly disappeared from his sight.

"Doctor Dong, I feel bad." He looked at Doctor Dong and let out a long breath.

"Everyone has their own destiny. Birth, old age, sickness and death are normal for us humans." In a place where no one was around, Doctor Dong gave Wu Guang a warm and careful comfort, and the little fox curled up in his arms and raised a pair of teary narrow eyes.

"Master Lu said it's bad to cry. I want to cry. Will he be unhappy?"

"Probably, yes." Doctor Dong didn't want Wu Guang to cry so miserably, and tried to comfort him.Wu Guang wiped away his tears and suppressed all the tears, leaving only red but dry eyes, "Then I won't cry, he said I have to learn to be strong."

Doctor Dong touched his head, took his hand and slowly walked towards the distant city gate together with Ah Hum.
