Chapter 40 Mourning
At night, the earth was shrouded, and the moon had been secretly hidden, and even the stars did not know where they had gone. The dark sky was like the night before the storm, making everyone suffocated and unable to breathe.
"Zhan Hua, what do you think of this?" In the secret room, the two had no intention of leaving. Long Jingdao would never allow anyone to dare to look at the Long family coveely.
"Either, the whole thing was done by the same person; or, it must be a mole in my dragon family." Long Zhanhua said with great certainty. There is a bad feeling in his heart that this matter will never end so easily. Perhaps, just like today, it is just a sign before the storm.
"One person?" Long Jingdao shook his head. He does not believe that there will be people in this world who poison unconsciously and unconsciously. It is not blind pride, but a kind of confidence in the defense of the Long family. If he does not use heavy weapons, I'm afraid that even the seven families will work together to capture the Long family.
"Father, and the Northern Tang family." Long Zhanhua whispered to remind him. It's impossible unless people from the third world intervene. Long Jingdao affirmed that his brain was running fast, and he was thinking about another possibility.
"Okay, you go back first! It's getting late. I have something else to do tomorrow." Long Jingdao knocked on the head with his hand and looked a little painful. Father, go to bed early, too!" After saying that, Long Zhanhua withdrew from the secret room. After a long time, Long Jingdao came out of the secret room, but there was an imperceptible smile on his face.
The third day after Zhang Lingfei's death, according to the ancestor, Zhang Lingfei's soul will leave the Long family and ascend to heaven on this day. Therefore, most relatives and friends will choose to send the departed person on this day. This time, not only the people of the Long family moved, but also some other forces such as the seven families sent people to express their condolences to the nominal second grandmother of the Long family.
"Long patriarch, my condolences!" Long Jingdao stood at the main door of the lobby of the Long family, wearing a white flower on his chest and a strong sadness on his face. Long Zhanjun and Long Zhanhua followed, but Long Zhanjun was still listless and had not yet woken up from the sad world.
"Long patriarch, my condolences!" No matter what happens to the Long family, Murong Feng is always the first to be present. Long Jingdao is still very sure about Murong Feng's character and is willing to date him.
"Hey! Chief Murong, please, inside, please, please inside. Longjingdao is very polite to the guests coming and going. In fact, there is another idea in his mind. The mastermind of this matter may be mixed among the guests. If he observes diligently, he may find some clues.
Other forces came one by one, and many of the seven families came. Although two patriarchs could not come in person because of the matter, they all sent people second only to themselves as representatives. However, Long Jingdao has not seen the Oriental family send people to come, even a subordinate.
"Father, the Eastern family is very abnormal!" Long Zhanhua stood behind Longjingdao and saw that there were few people. He poked his head and whispered in Longjingdao's ear. The Long family and the Oriental family have always been unconsideable. Although they respect each other on the surface, there are often frictions secretly. There is nothing they can do. The strength of the two families is similar. No one wants to retreat and see others standing above themselves. If today is the red event of the Long family, it is normal for the Oriental family to send a subordinate to come, but for Zhang Lingfei's death, the Oriental family will not let go of this opportunity.
"Oriental Yunfan has arrived!" The servants outside shouted loudly. Hearing the name, Long Jingdao's face was full of confusion. Why did Dongfang Jie send him here?
"Long, my condolences! The death of her sister-in-law at a young age is really sad for her! It's a pity that such a handsome woman, tut." As soon as they met, Dongfang Yunfan held his fist and said to Long Jing with a sad face. However, there was no sadness in his words. On the contrary, the last sentence seemed to deliberately emphasize Zhang Lingfei's appearance, and there was an obscene meaning in his tone.
"Brother Yunfan, since you are here today, you are the guest. Do you know why my father and I are standing here? First, our Long family has always been polite and considerate to welcome you. Second, I'm afraid that some people will mix among the guests and try to make trouble. With the relationship between our two families, you know the means of our Long family. Long Zhanhua took a step and warned Dongfang Yunfan with a smile, and his eyes were full of provocation. In the Dragon family, I'm afraid that even Dongfang Jie dares not be wild, let alone the unknown Dongfang Yunfan.
After hearing this, Dongfang Yunfan didn't say anything, but snorted heavily, as if he was unconvinced and left with a gray face.
Long Jingdao turned his head and showed approval in his eyes. The reason why he called the Oriental family was just to make a look for the other six families. According to the current situation, the two families have long been incompatible. Although the other six ethnic groups know in their hearts, no one wants to break the alliance rules of the eight families first. It is against the will of their ancestors and will besieged by the seven clans.
People are getting rarer and rarer. Long Jingdao looked at the time and nodded to signal that it was almost done. Everyone walked into the lobby, and the three of Longjingdao stood in a row, and behind them stood Long Xiaoqi and several others.
"Thank you for giving me the face of the Long family and taking time out of your busy schedule to support me. There are still many things that bother you in the afternoon. I hope you can eat well." After a brief opening speech, Long Jingdao took his two sons to the guests to toast one by one.
As Zhang Lingfei's husband, Long Zhanjun was naturally "extra care" by everyone. You said a word and I comforted each other, but it seemed to be a little cold to Long Jingdao and Long Zhanhua. However, there are also people who don't know the depth of heaven and earth. With a little wine, they are a little unscrupulous.
"I said that the army is just a woman, why do you mind? With the strength of your Long family, you don't want whoever you want. Hey hey, if you are embarrassed, my brother can help you with this. Dongfang Yunfan lay in the ear of the Dragon War Army and whispered, with a malicious smile on his face.
Long Zhanjun's originally numb face suddenly twitched. He turned his head and stared at Dongfang Yunfan, as if to eat him. Say it again!" The quiet voice is like coming from the underworld, like the call of death, but more like the strange tranquility before the storm.
Although their voices were low, Long Zhanhua listened to his ears. If it was in peacetime, he would definitely go up and beat Dongfang Yunfan fiercely. But now, hey! Everything needs to focus on the overall situation.
"Dongfang Yunfan, you have drunk too much! I think it's better to ask someone to send it back to you! You don't talk nonsense here, which affects everyone. Long Zhanhua inserted between the two and pushed away Dongfang Yunfan hard. At the same time, the guard of the Long family also came over and set up the drunken Dongfang Yunfan and left the lobby.
Long Zhanjun naturally understood Long Zhanhua's intention and did not say anything, but stared at Dongfang Yunfan fiercely, with eagle-like eyes, showing a rolling murderous spirit.
Long Jingdao looked aside, with a little embarrassed, but his heart was more about his love for the Long Zhanjun and his anger towards the Eastern family. This matter must be inspitable by Dongfang Jie. Otherwise, even if he gives Dongfang Yunfan ten courage, he dares not be so presumptuous here.
"Go back and have a rest first!" Long Jingdao walked over and gently patted the shoulder of the dragon army. Long Zhanjun looked up at Long Jingdao and left without saying much. It was just a melancholy and lonely back left to everyone...
After being full of wine and food, the crowd began to take action in the afternoon. The guests came to Zhang Lingfei's tomb under the leadership of the Dragon family and bowed one by one to show their respect for Zhang Lingfei. Among everyone, the biggest contrast is the father and son of the Dragon War Army. Long Zhanjun's face was numb, muttering to himself like a madman, and he couldn't see any expression. Long Xiaoqi knelt in front of the tomb and cried loudly. No matter how others dissuade him, he refused to get up and was finally carried back by Long Zhanhua.
The drizzle moistens the earth, and the breeze blows, giving people a cold feeling. In this world of joys and sorrows, there is only one tombstone standing alone.
