Chapter 84: Furious Brother Dao! He Wants to Kill!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The sky was gray and overcast, with low-hanging clouds, almost pressing down on everyone’s head.
It made it hard to breathe!
In the early morning, the small village before him should give out a sense of tranquility and comfort.
But now…
The cold morning breeze brought a chill to Li Yidao’s heart.
His eyes were filled with silence, even a hint of coldness!
Gazing at the slowly rising morning sun on the mountaintop, he felt a sudden realization.
Could it reach that dark place?
Just a moment ago, when he arrived at Cao Yajing’s home, there was no mourning hall left!
The four randomly erected pillars, along with the plastic covering, had already been pushed aside!
After inquiring, he found out that Cao Yajing’s elder brother believed that keeping the corpse at home was inauspicious.
Early in the morning, he called a few friends and dragged his sister’s body up the mountain on a cart, planning to bury her today!
Under normal circumstances, a body was usually kept for three to seven days before choosing a suitable burial date.
Especially for someone like Cao Yajing, who had experienced many hardships, there were many rituals.
But unexpectedly, her despicable elder brother acted this way!
Even Grandma Cao’s pleading to stop him was ignored.
Many of the hardworking middle-aged and young people from the village had already gone to work in other places to earn a living.
Only the troublemakers remained, and they were on friendly terms with Cao Yajing’s elder brother.
As for the other elderly and weak, how could they stop them?
In this way, early in the morning, they arranged for people to take her sister’s body up the mountain, intending to bury her hastily!
Li Yidao took a deep breath and glanced at the two laborers beside him.
“Thank you both for your hard work. Please help me carry these things up the mountain, and you can leave the rest.”
“I’ll pay you double for the job.”
The body had been taken away, and the funeral had begun. Some of the other preparations were now unnecessary.
However, items like paper dolls and yellow paper, used in the funeral, were still useful.
The reason why Li Yidao brought yellow paper and paper dolls was that they were spiritually attached.
He sacrificed three years of his lifespan for this. One year for the yellow paper, one year for the paper dolls, and one year for the yellow cow.
Each item required one year of his lifespan.
Those were not the 100 pieces of yellow paper he sold before, instead, those were specific items for one individual.
Li Yidao had no idea about the extraordinary effects these items could bring.
The path up the mountain could only be traversed on foot.
Fortunately, Li Yidao arrived quite early, and the other group was dragging a cart with the body, so he was faster.
Soon, Li Yidao arrived at the spot where they were preparing to bury Cao Yajing.
There were not many people there. Two middle-aged women were supporting an old lady.
And three or four robust elderly men were berating seven or eight young men.
These people were digging the grave with shovels, but it was clear that this was not a freshly dug grave.
The pit had already been there, and they were just digging around it to make it big enough to hold the coffin.
Seeing this scene, Li Yidao’s eyebrows furrowed, and an inexplicable anger surged within him.
How could they be so sloppy?!
Even the already covered coffin looked so crude!
Cao Yajing’s brother, Cao Shenglong, impatiently shouted, “That’s enough, almost done! Quickly push the coffin down and bury it.”
“No, it’s not okay! We can’t do this here! We can’t bury her here! Long, that’s your sister, your sister!”
The old lady, supported by the two elderly women, began to cry out desperately!
This place was clearly unsuitable for burial!
Even someone who knew nothing about funeral customs would realize that randomly using a pit like this as a burial ground was unacceptable!
But Cao Shenglong sneered, “Bah! She’s dead, and I’m not just leaving her to be eaten by wild boars in the wilderness. What’s wrong with burying her here? There’s a pit, and it’s perfect for burying her. Do you want my brothers to carry her all the way to the mountaintop? They don’t need to toil for nothing.”
“When she was alive, she didn’t make any money. It wasn’t even enough for me to go out and play mahjong. And now, you want me to spend money on her?”
“I already told her to find some rich guy to support her. She just needed to lie down and close her eyes, and the money would roll in.” “Bah! In the end, she didn’t earn anything and got herself a costly illness!” “Let’s bury her here! If you dare stop me, I’ll bury you too!”
As the other party spewed vulgar language, the elderly people around were trembling with anger.
Li Yidao’s eyes turned icy cold.
Meanwhile, the viewers in Li Yidao’s live stream were also outraged by such heartless words.
“What the heck! Is this person even human? Who raised such a beast?”
“D*mn it! If I see him, I’ll slap him in the face!”
“Can’t we just get rid of these beasts once and for all? It’s infuriating to watch!”
“Brother Dao, can you bear this? Kill him for me! I’m serious!” “Exactly! Kill him! D*mn it! I can’t stand it anymore!”
“I’m already on my way with my knife! My mountain girl was buried so carelessly?!”
“F*ck! I’m on my way too! Do they think our mountain girl has no one backing her up?”
“Don’t worry, everyone. Brother Dao is here now! I believe he won’t let this continue!”
“Yes! Brother Dao! We trust you! Teach him a lesson!”
“Teach him! Kill him!”
“That’s right! Brother Dao, I apologize for what I said before. If you kill him, I’ll kneel down and apologize. They can’t bully our mountain girl like this!”
“Exactly, they can’t! Teach him a lesson!”
“Brother Dao, take him down! We support you!”
Li Yidao had started the live stream when he got off the car in the morning, so the viewers had witnessed everything that happened before.
However, at this moment, Li Yidao didn’t pay any attention to the crazy time-sync comments from the live stream audience.
Cao Shenglong had already started arranging people to push the coffin!
Yes, push, not carry!
From the looks of it, they planned to push the coffin directly into the not-so-big pit.
There was even a slope in the pit, and they intended to push it in like that!
What a joke!
The grave was uneven, how could they place the coffin like that?!
“Stop!”
Li Yidao shouted angrily.
Everyone turned their gazes toward him.
He walked over with a cold expression and said, “This place is not suitable for burial, it’s not right!”
His tone was unquestionable.
Indeed, it made those few young men on the other side pause for a moment, but after a few seconds, Cao Shenglong, with a ruffian look, spoke up, “Who are you?”
“Kid, who the hell are you? What’s it to you?”
“Mind your own business and get lost!”
Li Yidao just gave him a cold glance without saying a word.
Instead, he turned and walked toward Cao Yajing’s grandmother.
“Hello, grandmother, I’m Li Yidao. We spoke on the phone yesterday.” He approached the old lady gently, his tone full of warmth.
Upon hearing Li Yidao introduce himself, the old lady became even more distressed and looked hopefully at Li Yidao.
“Child, child, please, I beg you, she can’t be buried like this, she can’t!”
“Yajing has been through hardships since she was little, and she still suffered as she grew up. She can’t die and suffer like this! It’s so unfair!” “I’m begging you, please, please help, Yajing can’t be buried like this…”
“It just can’t…”
“Old lady!” “Mrs. Cao!”
“Wake up!”
The old lady fainted in agony.
Several elderly people around quickly gathered around and exclaimed.
Li Yidao quickly embraced her.
After sensing her condition, he found it wasn’t too serious. She had just fainted and would wake up soon.
He carefully handed her over to two nearby women.
Then, he slowly got up.
Step by step, he approached Cao Shenglong.
His eyes were now filled with ice-cold anger.
In his two lifetimes as a person, it was the first time he had felt such fury.
He wanted to take this guy down!
