Chapter 74 [003] Furry is good, furry is wonderful
Chapter 74 [003] Furry is good, furry is wonderful
Qin Jiandan went to find Linlin and discovered that Linlin was "conspiring" with Aunt He who was holding a broom at the ground entrance of the monitoring room.
Aunt He, like Master, is an "internal digestion faction" that hopes Qin Jiandan will marry Linlin, and she is even more stubborn than Master.
Although the master did not think highly of Sheriff Mu Yue, he did think highly of the power of the Han family and once said, "If you can use the Han family, it is not impossible to marry her."
Aunt He doesn't care about power or not, she thinks Linlin is good from the bottom of her heart: You and your siblings are not related by blood anyway, if you don't marry her, do you want Linlin to be bullied by some wild boy who came from nowhere?
Qin Jiandan was not afraid of anyone when fighting with the Nian Society, but he was helpless against Aunt He. Aunt He had saved Linlin's life at the cost of her own life! This alone was enough to make Qin Jiandan feel helpless in front of Aunt He. He could only secretly throw fried chicken wrappers at her at night to vent his anger.
"Linlin, I'm just looking for you." Qin Jiandan interrupted Linlin and Aunt He, "The Falling Cherry Group will have a funeral at noon. Master asked you and me to represent the guild to attend. Please get ready."
The three words "Fallen Cherry Group" made Aunt He roll her eyes.
When Linlin heard that her brother was going to take her out, her first reaction was to be happy, but Aunt He's rolling eyes reminded her of something:
"The Fallen Cherry Blossom Group... There's no need for special preparations, I can just wear this, right?"
The girl with the bun-haired hairstyle straightened her chest. In the sunlight near noon, her pink gradient glowing Kung Fu costume was slightly dazzling.
"Okay, I don't plan to change into any special clothes." Qin Jiandan said, "We are not from the inner city, and we can't make a living by observing so many etiquettes."
Linlin puffed up her cheeks. She originally thought that wearing dirty clothes would make her look shabby, but recently she has paid special attention to hygiene and no longer smears oil on her clothes when eating buns, so her clothes are still quite clean.
"Linlin," Aunt He warned, "You must be more careful when you join the Falling Cherry Blossom Group. Eat as little of their food as possible."
Linlin waved goodbye to Aunt He: "I understand, Aunt He. But there will be no shortage of food. If I am poisoned to death, my brother will avenge me."
Qin Jiandan couldn't help but laugh out loud. If the Falling Cherry Group dared to poison Linlin, they would experience the wrath of thunder. Linlin had been hungry when she was wandering on the streets, and she would stuff food into her mouth at funerals and banquets.
The brother and sister walked to the center of the courtyard. Qin Jiandan saw Zhu Shengzhi flattering Xiaoxia, and Xiaoxia's nose was so proud of it.
"Xiao Xia, you and Feng Jian go to the door and start the car first." Qin Jiandan shouted from more than 10 meters away, "Linlin can't walk too fast, let's save some time."
Xiao Xia said "hmm" crisply, then walked towards the gate with Fengjian. Zhu Shengzhi nodded and bowed to Qin Jiandan, then walked out with Xiao Xia and the others.
Linlin stared at Xiaoxia's jumping back and fell into silence for a while.
Zhu Shengzhi walked in front. As the leader of the four major cadres of the Night Dragon Society, he personally opened the door to facilitate Xiao Xia's passage:
"Team Leader Xia, please be careful on the steps!" Zhu Shengzhi looked considerate, like a eunuch in a Qing palace drama.
After Xiao Xia and Feng Jian left, Zhu Shengzhi glared at the two guards on both sides of the gate:
"Are you two blind? Next time when Team Leader Xiao Xia comes over, open the door in advance!"
Zhu Shengzhi deliberately shouted loudly so that Qin Jiandan, who was lagging behind, could hear it.
Qin Jiandan felt that Zhu Shengzhi was shameless and that he might have lowered himself to such a low level because he wanted to ask Xiaoxia for a favor. Or maybe the "Shengzhi Group" had caused some trouble on Yingtong Street again.
Linlin didn't think so. She had been a straight man for many years, and now her female intuition had begun to awaken. She felt that Zhu Shengzhi was deliberately performing for her brother.
The atmosphere of "I give face to your woman, you should also give face to me" was very strong. The guards on both sides could not hold back. When Xiao Xia passed by, the guards bowed to varying degrees of salute.
Xiao Xia was already very happy, thinking that she had enjoyed the treatment of the young master's wife in advance, but she was startled by a voice outside the door:
"Everyone, I'm not a bad person! I'm here to persuade you to believe in religion!"
A pale man, dressed simply but respectable enough for the outer city, raised his hands to show that he had no weapons, and several guards stopped him.
Fengjian slipped away from the crowd to start the car. With her loli-like figure, she could pass through gaps that others could not, and her movements did not attract attention.
The pale man looked harmless, and Zhu Shengzhi suddenly felt heroic, and went up to protect Xiao Xia:
"You, are you an evangelical again? Are you stupid to come to the gate of Night Dragon Society to preach? Our president hates you the most!"
The senior official spoke, and the guards echoed him:
"No one here will believe in your religion! Go back to your Gad Monastery!"
Qin Qi solemnly warned the members of the Dragon Club that "God" and "Angel" are Chinese words that were stolen by shameless Westerners. From now on, they can only be called "Gade" and "Angel". The church is not allowed to be called a church, but must be called Gad Monastery.
Another guard cursed: "What good news? If you send me a blessing, I might even put it on my door!"
The pale man felt aggrieved: "Everyone, I am not an evangelical, I am a Fury!"
At this time, Qin Jiandan and Linlin also walked to the door. He stared at the pale man with a suspicious look:
"The Fury sect? Aren't you human?"
The pale man saw that Qin Jiandan had a different aura and immediately showed more respect:
"Sir, although my fellow believers and I are all human, we think Fury is very good. All humans in Ringstone City have the potential to become Fury, and we will all be one family in the future!"
The pale man became more and more excited as he spoke. He stretched his arms toward the sky and began to pray loudly:
"Hello, Furui people! Furui people are the light of evolution! Praise the great hairy god who is not afraid of the black fog!" Zhu Shengzhi and several guards' faces changed color, and Zhu Shengzhi spat on the ground:
"What bad luck! How dare you mention "black fog" in the outer city? Beat him up!"
The guards kicked the pale man to the ground and started beating him up.
“No, stop hitting me!” The pale man covered his head and face, rolling over and begging for mercy, “If you hit me again, I’ll have to go to the regeneration chamber for emergency treatment!”
Zhu Shengzhi scolded, "Don't you like being a Furui? Isn't entering the regeneration chamber just what you want?"
The pale man cried, "But regeneration soaking may not benefit people. It costs 10,000 yuan each time. It's too expensive!"
There are many religious forces in Huanshi City, and even a new religion is born every few days. Qin Jiandan is too lazy to understand them.
Qin Jiandan got into the van driven by Fengjian and sat in the back seat with Linlin this time.
Xiao Xia, who was sitting in the passenger seat, was in a good mood, but she tried to start a conversation several times, but Linlin's reaction was cold and the conversation could not continue.
Feng Jian drove very fast and soon arrived at the Luoying Group Castle. Qin Jiandan helped his sister get out of the car.
Although the castle tower was still under repair, occasionally one could see human figures swaying on the eaves, and hear the sounds of nailing and welding, but it wasn't too noisy.
Xiao Xia found an opportunity and squeezed next to Qin Jiandan and asked quietly:
"Master, Linlin is in a bad mood. Is it because it's an inconvenient day?"
Qin Jiandan thought to herself: She is in a bad mood because she sees you!
For various reasons, Linlin now unilaterally regards Xiaoxia as a love rival. After attending Shiro's funeral and eating, leave quickly to avoid Linlin saying something bad that will destroy the unity of the guild.
Not long after passing the suspension bridge and entering the castle tower, Qin Jiandan and others arrived at the courtyard where the altar was placed.
Qin Jiandan fought with Mrs. Watanabe and Monkey Man Ajian in the courtyard of the castle tower. The courtyard where the altar was placed was another one, but the structure was similar.
"Namo Amitabha Night——"
"Dotagadoya——"
"Ami Lidu Pobi——"
A large group of nuns formed a square in the courtyard and chanted the "Nirvana Sutra" in unison. In the center of the three-tiered altar, a black-and-white photo of "Silang" was placed on the top, surrounded by incense, and lotus lanterns, flower baskets, and plastic fruits were placed on both sides.
Wait a minute! Shiro, why is your face masked in your portrait? How is that different from other ninjas? Can you "Nine Ninjas" share the same portrait?
The coffin was placed behind the altar. It was made of reinforced plastic sprayed with black paint. The outer city lacked high-quality wood suitable for making coffins.
Linlin was not so ignorant. Like Qin Jiandan, she clasped her hands together in front of the portrait, and then followed the deceased's relatives and friends to walk around the altar.
Qin Jiandan walked to the small table responsible for accounting and handed over a white envelope representing the headquarters' kindness. The thickness of the envelope was also surprisingly thick.
The accountant took it with both hands, not daring to open it to check the exact amount. This person was Shiro's comrade-in-arms, one of the Nine Ninjas.
Wearing all black is quite suitable for a funeral. There's no need for black sleeves or white flowers on the chest... But it's a bit cheap for a ninja to do such a tacky job as bookkeeping and collecting money!
"Thank you, young master... and the headquarters for your hospitality!"
The space between the ninja's seat and the table was too small to make it convenient for him to stand up, so he placed his hands on the table and bowed.
"We have no way to repay you, so we will swear to be loyal to you till death and kill everyone in the Nian Society to avenge Shilang!"
In fact, Shiro was killed by the werewolf female assistant of the Han family collector, but the ninja didn't dare to say "kill all the Han family members" because the young master's wife was there.
The nuns were chanting sutras one after another. Qin Jiandan asked:
"Why not invite nuns instead of monks? If the Falling Cherry Group is in financial difficulty, please let me know so that Shilang won't leave in poverty."
The Luoying group usually holds funerals at noon to balance the dead person's yin with yang energy. Because of this, it is more expensive to hire monks for funerals, because nuns have "heavy yin energy".
"No, no," the ninja explained quickly, "Shiro once said that he liked nuns the most. If he died, he must find a nun to chant sutras instead of a monk. That's why we specially invited so many nuns from Fahai Temple!"
"I see."
Qin Jiandan looked at the portrait of Silang in the center of the altar. She felt that surrounded by so many nuns, the masked Silang also smiled...
