Chapter 535 The Grave Has Been Prepared Long Ago, and the Will to Die Has Already Been Formed
"Forehead..."
Ci Song suddenly fell into embarrassment. He didn't expect that the other party knew him, so he held his hand and said, "It's the boy."
"Could it be that the master's death has something to do with you? Or is it that your general's mansion forced the young lady to marry into your general's mansion, but the master didn't agree, so..."
Just when Kang Gao was getting more and more outrageous, Mo Yao interrupted him directly, "Grandpa Kang, that's not the case. Brother Ci Song came with me to pay homage to my mother and bury my father."
Immediately afterwards, Mo Yao began to explain to Kang Gao his relationship with Ci Song. As for Mo Quan's death, Ci Song relayed it.
After hearing everything that happened in Taiwei's Mansion, Kang Gao's expression first changed from confusion to shock, then sadness, and finally relief. He slowly looked at Mo Yao and asked, "Miss, it's really hard for you. ”
Mo Yao didn't answer, just shook her head slightly.
"Young General Ci, it was Kang Gao who was reckless. When I left Zhongzhou, the young master's reputation as a playboy had already spread. That's why I was so rude to you. Please forgive me, Young General."
After saying that, Kang Gao's originally stooped body became even more bent, and he was about to bow to Ci Song and admit his mistake.
"Grandpa Kang, you don't have to be polite. I want to come to Qingzhou and it's surrounded by mountains. News is not spread so easily. It's natural that you don't know Ci Song's current situation." Ci Song replied.
"I'm not afraid of the young general's jokes. I will stay in this Peach Blossom Temple most of the time. I will only go into the city a few days before the New Year to buy some New Year's goods and prepare for the New Year. As for the news from the outside world, I don't know much. , I occasionally hear pilgrims talk about it.”
Speaking of this, Kang Gao walked to the locked room in the open space on crutches. He saw gray talent condensed in his palm, and lightly touched the door. The originally locked door seemed to open by itself. , slowly revealing the room inside.
"Miss, young general, please follow me."
Kang Gao still kept the smile on his face, but at this moment, his smile looked extremely stiff in Mo Yao's eyes.
After entering the room, on the right side, a majestic stone tomb stands quietly. Its solid stone seems to be able to withstand the erosion of time. The tombstone is engraved with the words "Tomb of Beloved Wife Zhen Xiaoyao". The writing is clear and profound, revealing an endless sorrow and remembrance.
There is a pothole on the left side of the room. It looks like it has been there for some time. The edge of the pit is neat and steep, as if it were cut by a huge sharp blade. In the pit, an empty coffin stood quietly.
In front of this deep pit, there is also a stone tablet, echoing the stone tomb on the right. The stone tablet is engraved with the characters "Tomb of Zhongzhou Moquan". The writing is exactly the same as the stone tablet on the right, but it reveals a different emotion - it is a tragic and decisive farewell.
The atmosphere around him seemed to have frozen, so quiet that he could only hear his own breathing. There is a faint smell of earth in the air.
"This is this?" Mo Yao looked at the scene in front of him with a dazed expression.
"This is the grave that the master has prepared for himself a few years ago. The master has long been determined to die. He said before that his only concern in this world is for the young lady to get married. The old master said that after the young lady gets married, he will Come and sleep here, be buried next to my wife, and stay with my wife in this way.”
Kang Gao stood in front of the pit and said slowly, with a hint of bitterness and sadness in his voice.
"Father..." Mo Yao choked with sobs. She slowly came to the pit, leaned down and looked at the empty coffin, tears falling down her cheeks.
Ci Song took out Mo Quan's body that was frozen by the cold air from the jade pendant, and then used his talent to slowly put it into the coffin in the pit.
After seeing Mo Quan's body, Kang Gao put his crutches aside, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed three times to Mo Quan in the coffin, "Master, I will comply with your last wish. You and I Madam, we can finally sleep together."
Kang Gao stood up slowly, his face stained with tears, and he said to Mo Yao: "Miss, this old slave will always stay here, guarding the mausoleum of the master and his wife, and will not let outsiders disturb their purity."
Mo Yao nodded, first walked to his mother's tomb, kowtowed three times, then stood up, came to Mo Quan's tombstone, and kowtowed three times as well.
Mo Yao didn't say anything during this period, but his eyes revealed a bottomless sadness. Perhaps this indescribable sadness is the most accurate expression after losing a loved one.
Ci Song also kowtowed three times to the tombstones of Mo Yao's parents. After that, Kang Gao used his talents to control the coffin board on the side and cover the coffin.
"Let me handle the rest."
Kang Gao sighed slightly, looked at Ci Song, and said, "Major General, take the young lady to visit Qingzhou City."
Ci Song nodded, he walked to Mo Yao's side and held her hand, "Yao'er, we..."
"Let's go back. I believe that my father must be very happy at this moment. Let's not disturb the reunion of father and mother here."
"Grandpa Kang, please excuse me. I will come to see you every year from now on."
After that, Mo Yao directly pulled Ci Song out of the room and walked out of the small courtyard. Looking at the backs of Mo Yao and Ci Song, Kang Gao watched the two leave with a happy smile on his face.
In this way, Mo Yao took Ci Song all the way to the center of the peach forest, in front of the statue of her mother, and then stopped.
"Brother Ci Song, can you do Yao'er a favor?" Mo Yao looked at the jade statue and asked Ci Song Dao.
"What can I do?" Ci Song replied.
"I want you to write a poem to remember my parents. When my mother was ill, she told me about her encounter with my father. When they met, they were the same age as us, in a peach forest. At that time, the peach forest was not as lush as it is now. When my father saw my mother for the first time, he fell in love with her at first sight. But my mother looked down on my father at that time. Even though my father came from a family of Taiwei and inherited the throne, my mother still looked down on him."
"My father is a very stupid person, and his way of expressing love is also very stupid. Every time he faces my mother, he will only smile foolishly, then give her a bunch of peach blossoms, and then stare at her blankly. Dear. For five consecutive years, my father would come to Qingzhou Peach Forest to see the peach blossoms in March when the peach blossoms were in full bloom, and then pick the best and most beautiful bunch to give to my mother. "
"It was in the fifth year that my father took the initiative to ask my grandfather for a job as a minor official in Qingzhou City for the first time, and really started to get in touch with my mother. It was also in that year that my mother discovered that my father had completely different characteristics from my father. My father was a reliable person and a person who could give everything for others. "
"After my father and mother met, the two never separated again, and they also lived in Qingzhou until my mother became pregnant with me, and had no choice but to return to Zhongzhou City. "
