Gu Yu still remembered what she had heard. She patted Xiaoyu and said with a smile, “Sister-in-law Yu, didn’t you say that you had something rare to tell Madam? Tell me quickly.”

“What an impatient girl.” Xiaoyu smiled and patted the apricot flower. She slowly said, “I also heard from Granny Liu, who came back from buying groceries. She likes to go to the vegetable market in West City to buy groceries. She said that the vegetables there are cheap. Two days ago, she came back and told me that the lady boss of the Lin family’s grocery store, who often buys things, had gone crazy. She didn’t even sell her things and painted her face like a ghost. She sat at the door and cried and laughed sometimes. She crazily said that she was a great immortal who had descended to the mortal world.”

When Li Yu heard this, she felt that the lady boss of the grocery store might have eaten hallucinogenic medicine by mistake, causing her to hallucinate and do those unreasonable things.

“What about her family? Didn’t anyone care about her?” Apricot asked.

“Her husband was conscripted and went to the city wall. Her three daughters are all married, leaving only that silly son and her daughter-in-law at home. This morning, Granny Liu came back from buying groceries and said that she was fine. She was selling things in the shop with her husband like before. She doesn’t remember what she did either. Don’t you think it’s strange? Everyone near the grocery store said that the lady boss provoked an immortal. They said that the immortal didn’t intend to take her life, so he teased her.”

Xing Hua and He Yu shivered. Gu Yu rubbed her face. “It’s not strange. It’s a little scary. It makes my hair stand on end.” Xing Hua couldn’t help but nod.

Li Yu looked at Xiaoyu and asked, “Does Granny Liu know how stupid the lady boss’s silly son is? Why would her daughter-in-law marry a fool?”

“I’m not sure about that. I’ll get Granny Liu to ask.” Xiaoyu shook her head.

Li Yu placed the peanuts back on the fruit plate, took a sip of tea, and lay back on the chair. She said to Xiaoyu, “There’s no need for Granny Liu to ask. I’m just asking. ”

Li Yu lay on the rocking chair and thought to herself that the lady boss of the grocery store should have taken a hallucinogenic drug. The person who did it should be her daughter-in-law. She had already done it once and should attack again. Should she investigate the daughter-in-law of the grocery store?

Before Li Yu could make up her mind, Gu Yu said to Li Yu, “Madam, what happened? Why did Ah Wei run so quickly?”

Li Yu stood up and saw Ah Wei running to the courtyard door. He shouted excitedly, “Madam, those people are back!”

Li Yu was confused by his words. “Which people came back without rhyme or reason?”

“General Shen’s nephew and many soldiers have returned with many charred people. I heard that they were the corpses of General Shen and the soldiers who burned the Qi army, ” Ah Wei said sadly.

“Where are they? Quickly inform Master,” Li Yu said with a solemn expression.

“They’re almost at the place where the inn is being repaired. The commoners we encounter along the way followed behind to send them into the city. Madam, I’ll report it to Master.” Ah Wei ran towards the front office.

Shen Shuo and a group of soldiers must have given up their lives to burn the Qi army to win the lives of these soldiers. Li Yu thought with a heavy heart and quickly walked out. Gu Yu and Xing Hua followed behind Li Yu.

When Li Yu reached the door, she saw Zhou Jia leading Wu Tingxian and a group of officials into the carriage and rushing towards the city gate. Li Yu’s carriage could not go halfway. She saw that the commoners were all rushing towards the west city gate. Li Yu got out of the carriage and walked to the city gate. She saw everyone standing on both sides of the road and looking at the group of people slowly walking toward the city gate.

Zhou Jia, Chu Sihai, the officials, Ouyang Xiong, and General Yun stood on both sides of the city gate. Li Yu saw that Madam Shen was wearing a white flower on her head. With the help of a girl and an old woman, she looked at the slowly approaching soldiers with a sad expression.

The four soldiers walking in front raised their heads and carried the corpses of the soldiers covered in battle robes. The soldiers’ sallow faces were solemn. A young soldier walked up to Madam Shen and knelt down. “Auntie, Ah Hui brought Second Uncle back.”

Madam Shen touched Shen Hui’s head with a pale face and couldn’t say a word. She looked blankly at the corpse carried by the slowly approaching soldiers. Li Yu’s nose turned sour and tears fell.

Ouyang Xiong went forward and took over the stretcher from the shoulders of a soldier. The other soldiers also walked over and took the stretchers on the shoulders of the soldiers bearing the corpses. Zhou Jia brought Wu Tingxian and the others forward to take the corpses of the soldiers. The war drums sounded on the city tower. Ouyang Xiong shouted, “The soldiers of Great Yong have returned home.”

“They’re back,” the soldiers shouted in unison. Ouyang Xiong sang loudly, “Qiyue Wuyi? We’re on the same side. Wang Yu and Xingshi, repair my spear. We’re enemies! Qiyue Wuyi? We’re on the same side!” Tears welled up in the eyes of the soldiers and the commoners on both sides of the road. Everyone sang along, and a desolate and tragic chant resounded through the clouds. Everyone solemnly carried the corpses of the soldiers toward the garrison office.

After the commoners sent the soldiers to the government office and bowed, they dispersed in an orderly manner.

Li Yu also brought Gu Yu and Xing Hua home and asked Ruyi to buy sacrifices to pay respects to the soldiers before returning home. As soon as she reached home, Zhou Jia asked Tiezhu to bring a letter back and said that he wouldn’t be going home at night. Ah Wei came to tell Li Yu about the situation of the bushes under the manor. “Madam, if we go down from the end of the cornfield, that wasteland is half the size of our manor. It’s also far from the foot of the mountain. The forest is filled with rocks. It’s much more laborious to explore it than ours.”

Li Yu nodded and said, “As long as we can purge the rocks, what’s there to be afraid of? It’s getting colder every day and we can’t get to work. Yes! It’s easy if you know where it is. Go down and rest!”

“Yes, Madam.” After Ah Wei bowed and left, Li Yu brought Yangyang back to the house to rest.

Zhou Jia didn’t return home until half-past nine the next day. Li Yu carried the sleeping Yangyang to the small bed and went out to greet the exhausted Zhou Jia. She hurriedly prepared food for him. After Zhou Jia washed up, he said to Li Yu, “Sigh! The corpses of those soldiers were all found by Shen Hui and more than 2,000 soldiers. They searched the valley bit by bit. In the end, with the sabers of the dead soldiers and the thumb ring on General Shen’s hand, they found all the corpses. More than 120 soldiers died in the sea of fire. I heard that there are countless corpses of the Qi army in the col.”

“Then where do you plan to bury the corpses of these soldiers?” Li Yu asked.

Zhou Jia sighed. “Other than the ring on General Shen’s thumb that can be identified, we can’t ascertain the identity of the other soldiers. There are also the guards who accompanied General Shen to protect him. They have been discussing how to bury them. They argued non-stop and discussed for a day before deciding..”
