124: Everyone to your positions! Let the feast begin?

Holding a funeral in the early morning was already strange.

Suddenly, an unusual celestial phenomenon occurred.

Furthermore, the tomb before them was an qin dynasty Emperor's Tomb, and the person buried inside was that kid, Su Yun... A strange person encountering strange events.

Zheng Jianfeng invited the meteorological Expert over.

A large group of old men were carrying precision detection instruments and equipment.

They measured the air humidity, then the oxygen density... They fiddled around for a full half hour.

When finished, the meteorological Expert stated frankly: "Dry thunder and a full moon are completely normal phenomena!"

Since the data was within the normal range, this was a possible occurrence.

As soon as he said this, the heavy hearts of the crowd settled... After that, Zheng Jianfeng pointed towards the beasts in the mountain forest that were constantly preparing for action.

The meteorological Expert's scalp prickled, and he said: "We can't deal with that..."

"If you want to know why, you need to find an Expert in animal research!"

Actually... there was once a formidable person, comparable to an Expert, even more professional than a beast tamer.

However, that person was currently buried beneath the tomb.

Zheng Jianfeng shook his head helplessly.

Dry thunder and the full moon, these phenomena, were explained by the meteorological Expert's data as reasonable.

So... why did the beasts suddenly descend the mountain?

It wasn't that they hadn't tried to drive the beasts back up the mountain... They had explored and used every method.

It was completely useless... In fact, the leading lion and the Tigress had started showing hostility towards them!

Zheng Jianfeng once again arranged for his subordinates to notify the zoology Expert.

It seemed that if all the anomalies tonight couldn't be explained clearly, no one would be able to sleep peacefully... For a time.

Everyone present grew anxious, and the atmosphere was constantly heating up.

"Although the meteorological Expert determined the phenomenon was normal, why do I keep getting chills down my spine!"

"Would a ghost admit it's a ghost? The occurrence of this phenomenon is too much of a coincidence!"

"Oh dear... I said that holding a funeral in the early morning would lead to trouble..."

The intern reporter at the scene, his face slightly pale, said: "Friends, the funeral has entered a critical stage."

"Will anything unexpected happen next? Please continue to follow Two and a Half Years!"

-- [Damn... I was ready to pay my respects, but the Expert tells me it's a normal phenomenon!]

-- [No coincidence, no story! Indeed, dry thunder and a full moon, the symbolism is too terrifying...]

-- [Will a werewolf appear next? Will there be Thunderous Eight Trigrams!?]

-- [Let me see what's going on? Why can't it be my big brother, the Thunder King Sikong Zhen!?]

-- [That was too exciting... That thunderclap just now, I accidentally kicked my girlfriend into the foot bath bucket...]

-- [Awooo... Brothers, I'm coming out...]

Tens of millions of fans and netizens in the livestream room paid close attention, unable to sleep all night.

Tonight was destined to be sleepless.

They had thought it would be an unprecedented, sensational funeral... Who could have expected so many accidents to occur during the ceremony!?

Could it be? Did the ancestors really manifest?

Could it be? Is Su Yun really setting off bombs in the Underworld!?

... Just as everyone was confused and blindly guessing, the animal Expert rushed to the scene.

The person who arrived was wearing a protective suit.

Knowing he had to deal with the beasts in the mountain forest, this Expert had even settled his affairs... Walking in front of the fierce beasts, the animal Expert trembled: "Hello! My darlings! How are you..."

Roar!

Before he could finish speaking, the leading male lion immediately let out a furious roar of warning!

An attack posture appeared!

The animal Expert immediately stumbled backward, awkwardly scratching his head: "Hey! What great teeth..."

To ensure the beasts wouldn't attack rashly, the animal Expert retreated, absolutely daring not to expose his back.

He only stopped when he retreated into the protective circle formed by the soldiers.

Wiping the large beads of cold sweat from his forehead, he said: "Lieutenant Colonel Zheng, I advise you not to act rashly."

"They are too frightening..."

Zheng Jianfeng had no time for small talk and asked: "Expert, what exactly is going on?"

"Why did they suddenly descend the mountain!?"

He felt that the beasts were somewhat different from the first time they descended the mountain... Hearing this, the animal Expert shook his head and said: "I speculate that they came down the mountain looking for something."

"That male lion and that Tigress are the two absolute leaders of the pack."

"I tested them just now; they are very hostile toward humans..."

"As for why they haven't attacked, and why they are stubbornly guarding this spot, I don't know either!"

After all, the animal Expert doesn't understand beast language.

His speculations were based on years of study and judgment according to the animals' habits.

...

Zheng Jianfeng fell into a long silence.

With the beasts present, there were too many variables... The beasts were uncontrollable.

If the funeral were to continue, it might cause chaos!

"Sigh..."

Zheng Jianfeng sighed, staring at the tombstone engraved with "Tomb of Su Yun."

He said helplessly: "Brother Su Yun, you truly are... restless even after death..."

There was no other way.

Zheng Jianfeng could only forcibly halt the funeral.

"Let's stop here. We have done our best."

"The sentiment is what counts..."

Officer Hong also nodded.

With the beasts present, they naturally understood the difficulty... And so.

The people at the scene began to tidy up and clean the funeral site.

The mess hall, along with the cooks from the Longhai City Police Bureau cafeteria, took charge of the cooking.

They prepared a banquet for the tired and hardworking people... In fact... it was also a banquet prepared for Su Yun and his group.

The dead cannot be brought back to life.

When relatives and friends came to offer condolences, how could they possibly let them go home hungry!?

At the Military Region training ground... the soldiers unfolded folding tables.

A funeral banquet held in the early morning, this must be the first time, right?

-- [Great! I'm really craving Brother Su's banquet!]

-- [Family, who understands? I want to eat the feast!]

-- [In the middle of the night... are you trying to make me cry from hunger?]

-- [The first bite must be delivered to my mouth! Otherwise, I'll cry for you...]

-- [Why is no one touching that pile in front of Brother Su's tombstone? How about giving it to me?]

Tens of millions of fans and netizens in the livestream room saw the feast.

They were all more enthusiastic than the last... And Zheng Jianfeng handled things properly and thoughtfully.

According to folk customs, a funeral feast must begin with the sound of firecrackers!

The Military Region couldn't find firecrackers immediately... So, they brought in mortars and fired fifty rounds continuously at an open space!

Boom!

The ground shook and the mountains swayed!

After a burst of cannon fire... the mountain beasts remained in place, not moving an inch.

Zheng Jianfeng was still puzzled: What exactly are they looking for? They aren't even afraid of artillery fire!?

He truly couldn't figure it out.

He stood in the center and waved his hand: "Everyone take your seats! Let the feast begin!"

*Swoosh*... Just as everyone was seated and picked up their chopsticks for the first bite... two large and one small, three dusty, miserable black figures, having followed the scent, instantly darted into the seating area!
