    Xia Houli's name remained on a long list.

    That is the list of soldiers who fell in the Tang Yu War.

    This war can no longer be simply described as tragic.  The battles between monks have always been extremely cruel, often after a single battle, tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people die.

    "I am an old friend of Lord Hou, and I come to pay my respects to the remains of Lord Hou."

    Lu Yu said.

    "you¡­¡­"

    The concierge looked Lu Yu up and down, then turned his head and said, "Wait, I'll make a report."

    Outside Xiahou Mansion, white snow fluttered and the cold wind gusts.

    Lu Yu stood in the cold wind, feeling the chill coming from all around, his expression unchanged.

    After a full two sticks of incense, the door of Xiahou Mansion was pushed open.

    "Master Hou has no old friends for a long time! If you are looking for trouble, then pass me first!"

    A disciple of Xiahou's mansion came out with a cold voice, holding a long sword.

    The concierge whispered behind him: "Ninth Young Master, that's him, claiming to be an old friend of Lord Hou."

    "you¡­¡­"

    Seeing Lu Yu, the disciples of the Xiahou Mansion were suddenly startled, and the long sword in their hands fell to the ground.

    He rubbed his eyes, stepped forward to look at it carefully, and suddenly felt a huge shock in his heart, and he was about to bow down immediately.

    "No need! I'm seeing off Lord Hou today, so just treat me as an ordinary old friend of Lord Hou."

    Lu Yu supported the disciple of the Xiahou Mansion.

    "Yes! Yes! I met you once in Xiahoushuo. It is our honor that you can come to the house, please come in!"

    Xia Houshuo welcomed Lu Yu in with a respectful expression on his face.

    The two of them walked all the way, and servants dressed in black could be seen everywhere in the mansion, holding white lanterns in their hands, walking quickly with their heads down.

    Lu Yu looked around, and the whole mansion was filled with a sense of sadness.

    The former Xiahou Mansion's children all had confident smiles on their faces.

    But now everyone has a gloomy look on their faces and is extremely depressed, which is already very different.

    The mourning hall was already full of people at the moment.

    People from all branches of Xiahou Mansion gathered here to see Xiahouli off.

    The deafening sounds of mourning and joy resounded all around, and countless clansmen of the Xiahou Mansion knelt on the ground, crying endlessly.

    Lu Yu looked at the eyes of all the clansmen, but found that only a few people present were genuinely grieving, while more people were showing cunning and pretending to be grieving.

    Lu Yu let out a short sigh.

    Xiahou spent half his life as a soldier, and put almost all his thoughts on his family, but unexpectedly, he did not live peacefully after his death. I am afraid that Xiahou's mansion will experience another turmoil.

    "Master Hou heard that he met a peerless master of the Tang Dynasty. Even his head was smashed to pieces, and the whole body was not left behind. We asked the people in the army to collect the remains of Master Hou. It took a lot of time.  It took half a month to barely put the corpse together."

    When Xia Houshuo said this, his voice trembled a little, and tears rolled in his eyes.

    Lu Yu shook his head and didn't say much, standing among the funeral crowd, looking at the last broken face of his deceased.

    In front of the coffin, a woman in white was supported by a maid, her face was pale, and she was sobbing.

    This is Mrs. Xiahou.

    In Lu Yu's impression, Mrs. Xiahou stabilized Xiahou's family when Xiahouli went out to fight. She was a woman with a beautiful appearance and a strong heart.

    But now, due to excessive grief, Mrs. Xiahou's hair turned gray all night, and she couldn't even stand still
