Chapter 663: Coffin (1)
Translator: 549690339
Jiang Beiran was naturally the one who had helped the girl chase away the bailiff. When the system did not give him an option, he would often lend a helping hand when he saw injustice, but he would never leave his name.
His goal was naturally to avoid triggering subsequent options as much as possible.
However, just as Jiang Beiran was about to put down the silver taels and leave at a speed that was invisible to the naked eye, a system notification suddenly popped up.
[Option 1: Quietly put down the silver and leave quickly. [pletion Reward:
Nine Heavens Nether Scripture (Heaven Grade Low-Rank)]
[Option 2: Don’t continue to care about this matter. pletion reward: Lan Xi Gu Record (Earth Grade Middle Rank)]
[Option 3: Give the silver to the girl and find an excuse to leave. [pletion Reward: Numinous Sky Demon Map (Earth Grade Low-Rank)]
[Option 4: Help the girl to the end. pletion reward: Random basic attribute point 1]
The sudden appearance of the heaven-grade option had truly stunned Jiang Beiran.
‘ What’s going on? Did I meet a female lead? Would the world be destroyed if he didn’t help her? Or will she save my life in the future?’
After a brief interpretation, Jiang Beiran could tell that the first three options of the system were all expressing the same meaning.
If he just helped her, it would not solve the problem at all. An unknown crisis would immediately e.
Only by pletely fulfilling all of her wishes or worries could he be considered to have helped her to the end.
‘It’s ridiculous…’
Before Jiang Beiran had saved her, he had used his spiritual power to confirm that she had no cultivation at all and was just an extremely ordinary moner. How could Jiang Beiran not have thought that such an ordinary moner could trigger a heaven-grade option? It was truly ridiculous.
Regardless of whether it was ridiculous or not, Jiang Beiran still chose the fourth option after the system had given him the option.
Putting away the silver that he had planned to put down, Jiang Beiran took a deep breath and walked up to the girl.
The girl slowly raised her head as she felt the light in front of her was blocked. She glanced at Jiang Bei and said,’”‘Do you want to buy me? I can do anything. I guarantee that I won’t disappoint you.”
Glancing at the dead body behind the girl, Jiang Beiran asked,””How did your family die?”
“Sigh…” The girl let out a long sigh.” A few days ago, there was a plague in the village. When I came back from the city…Father, Mother, Brother, and Sister…
It’s all gone.”
‘Plague…’ Jiang Beiran suddenly thought of the village covered in white cloth that he had passed by earlier. “What’s your name?”
“Xia Lingdang.”
“You’re a pitiful person. Get up, I’ll help you bury your family.”
Xia Lingdang’s face immediately revealed an excited smile.””Master is willing to buy me?”
“Yes, I bought it.”
“Thank you, master!”
Xia Lingdang was about to kowtow to Jiang Beiran when Jiang Beiran pressed her shoulder down.
“You don’t need to do all these formalities to be my servant. Get up, we’ll bury your family’s bodies.”
“Thank you, Master! Thank you, Master!”
Xia Lingdang stood up excitedly as she spoke. Then, she turned around and bowed to the five corpses.”Father, mother, we finally met a kind person. We can be buried, we can be buried.”
Since she was selling her body to bury her whole family, Xia Lingdang naturally hoped that her family would be buried in a more dignified manner instead of being buried in a random mass grave with a mat.
Because Xia Lingdang’s relatives had all died in the plague, the funeral notice was exempted.
With Jiang Beiran’s help, Xia Lingdang took off her self-made mourning clothes and changed into mourning clothes and hat made of linen.
“The mourning hall is ready. Follow me.”
At night, Jiang Beiran, who had gone out to buy everything, came back and said to Xia Lingdang.
“Thank you, master!”
After bowing to Jiang Beiran, Xia Lingdang followed Jiang Beiran out.
After asking around, Jiang Beiran found out that Xia Lingdang lived in the village that was covered in white cloth.
Therefore, after he found Xia Lingdang’s house, Jiang Beiran found a small group of people to do the chores and took care of everything.
Pushing the door open, Xia Lingdang found her family members lying beside five top-quality coffins. In front of the coffins were spirit tablets, spirit flowers, eternal lanterns, incense burner, tributes, and so on.
It could be said that even if a rich family died, the old master would only have this standard.
“This… This…” Xia Lingdang was stunned for a while before she looked at Jiang Beiran and bowed.””Thank you, master! I will definitely repay you in the future.”
“Thank you later. You should do what you should do now.”
“Master is right. I’ll go now.”
Walking to the coffin in the middle, Xia Lingdang first performed a set of etiquette, then picked up the razor beside her and bent down.
No matter where it was, the rules of burial were the same.
Before the deceased entered the coffin, the children had to shave their heads, shave their faces, change their clothes, and wear shroud clothes.
After seriously grooming her family members, Xia Lingdang picked up paper money and covered their faces.
Because there was a saying that if one dropped tears on the dead, they would not be able to see the dead in their dreams, Xia Lingdang had to hold back her tears the entire time and finish everything with determination.
After Xia Lingdang covered the last coffin, Jiang Beiran looked at her and said,””How many days do you usually leave the coffin here?”
“Seven days.” Xia Lingdang answered.
“Alright, I still have my own things to do. I’ll e back to find you in seven days. ”
“Thank you, master, for your great kindness…”
