605. Secretly wipe tears

Taoist Master Qingfeng walked slowly over, reached out and picked up the dusty steamed buns from the ground, put them beside his mouth and blew them a few times, then wiped them on the tattered Taoist robe, then handed them to Zhou Ming and said softly: Tomorrow, eat these steamed buns, you have shed a lot of blood, you must replenish some strength.

Zhou Ming glanced at the steamed bun in his master's hand, then turned his head and said angrily: Master, my disciple doesn't eat this dirty thing. This group of people is simply a group of pigs and dogs. At the beginning, they treated us as old men. Now they are like feeding dogs and throwing us a few steamed buns like they are feeding dogs. Isn't this obviously an insult to us?

Today is different from the past. Who has encountered such a thing? You have to eat these steamed buns. When it gets completely dark, once the blood corpses break out of the coffin, you must have the strength to run away. Master Qingfeng persuaded him earnestly.

Zhou Ming was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and looked at the dry steamed buns in Master Qingfeng's hand. He felt a little sad. Now it was like this. The master was still thinking about himself. All day long, the master didn't even drink a sip of water, but gave all these steamed buns to him.

Zhou Ming sniffed and said in a touching way: Master, you should eat it. You will have to deal with those blood corpses in a while. The disciples can't help much. How can you do it without the strength?

Master Qingfeng pondered for a while before saying: Let's do this, let's not argue with us masters and apprentices. There are four steamed buns here, one of us, two of us, eat them. At that time, our masters and apprentices work together to make it possible to walk out of this old house of Zhang family alive.

Zhou Ming took the two steamed buns from Master Qingfeng with tears in his eyes, then turned around, stuffing the steamed buns into his mouth, and secretly wiping the tears. Suddenly, Zhou Ming seemed to feel that his master had grown a lot in an instant, with the scattered hair mixed with many silver threads, the wrinkles on his face became deeper, and even his body was a little hunched. This made him, the apprentice, feel distressed for a while, and it was difficult to cry in front of his master, so he had to wipe his tears secretly.

Outside the lobby where the four coffins were placed, dozens of officers and soldiers were guarding them. These officers and soldiers were all those who had digged the ancestral graves at the beginning. After changing their clothes, they were arranged by Captain Zhang to guard the coffin here.

Originally, the errand digging of ancestral graves was tiring enough. I wanted to have a good rest after coming back, but unexpectedly, I was arranged to guard the coffin here, so the officers and soldiers were naturally not very happy.

A soldier complained: Brothers, we have dozens of chores done today. Just digging graves for half a day, and the heavy rain on the road was so cold that we felt cold. After dinner, we were planning to take a shift to rest for a while. The Captain Zhang arranged for our brothers to guard the coffin. He did it himself and went to drink and eat meat with a few yamen runners, so that our brothers would suffer and be tired.
