Chapter 133 Wu's Agreement
Lu Heng, who was far away in Fushan City, didn't know about Madam Qingzhu's plan.
If he knew that Madam Qingzhu had thought about it and finally chose the same destination as him, he would probably smile bitterly and sigh again that it was really a bad fate.
But at present, he didn't know all this.
He just stood in the courtyard of the Wu family, quietly listening to the old man in the courtyard admonishing and scolding the Wu family members.
Xiao Ai and Huo Feng both came to his side, stood with him, and waited for the old man Wu to leave.
In the next courtyard separated by a wall, the roof of the Wu family's ancestral hall had collapsed and was in a mess.
But the elders of the Wu family did not leave. At this time, they all stood in the courtyard and surrounded the two young masters of the Wu family who were tied up.
The irritable old man Wu had already cursed angrily, and finally held the golden sword and issued an order exactly the same as the fake body.
"Wu Zhiqian, the rebellious son of the Wu family, poisoned his own father and was unfilial and unkind! He committed such a heinous act. According to the clan rules, he should be beheaded... drag him down! Behead him in public!"
This order from the old master Wu did not cause a fierce resistance from the eldest son.
Perhaps it was because he had vented all the resentment that he had been holding back for decades when facing the old master played by Madam Qingzhu.
Now when he was dragged away, Wu Zhiqian did not react at all. He just looked at his old father indifferently and let everyone drag him down, as soft as a dead pig.
Although the second young master of the Wu family did not poison his biological father, he colluded with evil spirits and violated the laws of Huotong State. The Wu family's private punishment clan rules could not sentence him. He needed to be transferred to the Fire God Temple and handed over to the wizards of the Fire God Temple for judgment.
However, in the laws of Huotong State, colluding with evil spirits to cause chaos is a capital crime, and Wu Zhiyuan probably cannot escape.
The only choice he had was whether to die a quick death or a miserable death.
In this world where cultivators ruled, because of the existence of witch doctors, there were many extreme punishments that were more cruel and severe than those that Lu Heng knew in his previous life, enough for those vicious criminals to enjoy.
If the second son of the Wu family did not want to be tortured and then die, the only way out was to confess all the things that he had colluded with the evil spirits in the Qingming Cave.
After the two sons of the Wu family were not spared, in the end, the position of the future head of the Wu family was entrusted to the second daughter of the Wu family, a middle-aged woman who was over fifty but still guarded the foundation of the Wu family.
The elders of the Wu family did not have much objection to this.
In this world where both men and women can practice, discrimination against women is not as strong as in the ancient times of Lu Heng's previous life.
The second daughter of the Wu family has guarded the Wu family for decades. In terms of popularity and ability, he should actually be chosen.
The reason why Grandpa Wu was poisoned by his eldest son was because he saw that his two sons were not making progress in recent years, and he really wanted to pass the position of patriarch to his second daughter.
And this matter was also known by the eldest son.
In the following few days, a not-so-tragic purge took place in the Wu clan.
Almost all the Wu clan members who participated in the eldest son's poisoning of the old master were pulled out. The rest were all small fish and shrimps, hiding in the dark and unable to stir up any more waves.
And those who followed the second son were even worse. They were directly taken away by the wizards of the Fire Temple and went to the black prison of the Fire Temple.
As for their experience, it was even more tragic than those of the eldest son's followers.
Of course, that is a story for later.
After dealing with many matters of the Wu family, it was already afternoon.
Grandpa Wu, who was already a ghost, sighed and said to the old brothers, old friends, and daughter in front of him.
"It's late, I can't stay any longer."
"Everyone, the affairs of the Wu family will be handed over to you from now on..."
After saying that, the old man's ghost body turned around and left, no longer lingering, and quickly disappeared from everyone's sight, completely ignoring the many relatives and friends behind him trying to keep him.
"Farewell, old man!"
"Farewell, old man!"
As the Wu family members sang in unison, the soul of the old man Wu came to the next courtyard separated by a wall and met Lu Heng and the other two.
Lu Heng stood up, smiled and bowed, "Congratulations, old man, you have finished your worldly affairs. Now, you are finally relaxed."
"According to the previous agreement, Lu can fulfill one of the old man's wishes and send him to the netherworld to reincarnate... The old man has been thinking about this for a long time, do you have any ideas about this matter?"
Lu Heng asked sincerely.
Old Master Wu smiled bitterly and replied, "Wolf God, you are too kind. The Wu family was able to escape this disaster thanks to the care of Wolf God. How can I ask for more?"
"Since my father knows you, it is the fate of the two venerables. As a junior, it is a great blessing for the Wu family to be cared for by Wolf God. Senior, please don't mention this matter again, just send me to the netherworld to reincarnate."
"The Wu family has gained too much this time."
Old Master Wu's sigh was sincere.
For him, what he couldn't let go of for a long time was the matter after his death.
And the current wave of turmoil helped him make up his mind. And with the abilities of the two girls, it is definitely enough to support the stable development of the Wu family.
As for what will happen next, he doesn't have to worry about it.
The second girl has a very strict family education, and she is much better at educating children than this old man. The main family falls into the second girl's family, and the heir of the Wu family in the next life will not be bad.
The old man was very pleased to get such a result.
And the old man's words surprised Lu Heng a little.
Because he could feel that the old man's words were sincere. The ghost body could not play tricks in front of him.
Therefore, Lu Heng was surprised and sighed.
He looked at the old man in front of him deeply and sighed, "Old gentleman's words... ah... make me ashamed."
"Old gentleman is open-minded. Compared with him, I only think about fulfilling my promise... Compared with the two, I am the one who is inferior... ha..."
Lu Heng smiled bitterly and said, "But since I have been called a senior by the old gentleman, I have indeed made an agreement with Brother Wu back then... Let's do this, old gentleman, you can go and inform the second lady."
"If something big happens to the Wu family in the future, the descendants of the Wu family can go to Hanyu Mountain to find the wolf god in the mountain. If I am here, I can keep the Wu family safe for once."
Lu Heng smiled but said to the old man seriously, "This time, it is Lu's own promise... respect the old gentleman's noble righteousness."
Lu Heng was sincere and solemn.
But only he could understand his last sentence.
Old Master Wu looked at Lu Heng in a daze. Although he wanted to refuse, seeing that the wolf god was so serious, it was not easy to refuse in vain.
He hesitated for a few seconds, and finally bowed deeply to Lu Heng, saying, "In this case, Wu Yuan, on behalf of my father and the Wu clan, would like to thank the Wolf God for his care!"
