Chapter 69 Father and Daughter, Memory
Tang An looked at his scalp and felt numb. If he had suffered such injuries, he would probably have been cold. Could it be that the old orc knew that his life was not long and was entrusting Qingtian?
This is a bit tragic.
The old orc probably saw the expressions of Tang An and Yang Baoguang, and said immediately: "I'm fine, but I need to return to the tribe for treatment, but I can't take Qingtian with me, it's too dangerous."
Tang An understood this time.
The places where the old orcs want to go are something that humans cannot set foot, and the places where the other party asks him and Yang Baoguang to take Qingtian must be the territory of human beings.
The old orc didn't say much. After he finished explaining, he just looked at Qingtian in his arms. Even though the old orc looked firm, he could still see the strong reluctance.
It's like a father who is about to separate from his children.
Tang An could understand this kind of look because he was also a father, because he had also experienced the pain that the old orcs had experienced at this moment.
So Tang An understands him.
When men face this kind of pain, they often do not express it, but they can see all emotions from their eyes.
Just like the old orcs nowadays.
Yang Baoguang next to him might be trying to say something, but he didn't know what to say. Judging from the current situation, there seems to be no other way.
The idea of the old orc may not be a temporary idea, but a long history.
He knew better than anyone else that he was an orc, and Qingtian was a human.
In this wasteland, he can secretly raise the other party, but he can't do it when he goes to other places. Orcs cannot tolerate humans, and humans will never die when they see orcs.
They are mortal enemies.
Even for the sake of the future of sunny days, the old orc knew that sooner or later, he had to separate from sunny days, because he wanted to give sunny days a better future.
But the situation in the past was not so urgent, and the old orc did not meet a person who could be entrusted. Now he has met. Tang An and Yang Baoguang. From the perspective of the old orc, these two people fought side by side with him and were even more of their life-saving benefactors, so they are trustworthy.
Moreover, he could only trust these two people.
Tang An and Yang Baoguang did not disturb the old orc. Maybe this was the last time each other spent with Qingtian.
But good times will always pass very quickly.
It's almost dawn.
The old orc stood up and handed Qingtian to Tang An. He even squeezed a little bit of soil on the ground and smeared it on Tang An and Yang Baoguang's foreheads very seriously.
This was like a ritual, so neither Tang An nor Yang Baoguang dared to move around.
"You are trustworthy warriors, my friends." The old orc clasped his fist and touched his chest horizontally, and performed a manner.
Tang An and Yang Baoguang also followed suit. Obviously, from this moment on, they really gained the friendship of the old orc Booker, and the name "Old Booker" appeared in their friend list.
"My friend, take good care of Qingtian." Old Booker said, turning around and leaving, but at this moment, Qingtian woke up.
The child opened his eyes and saw that the old orc was about to leave. In desperation, he actually cried loudly and kept stretching out his little hands to catch the old orc.
The latter hesitated for a moment, then Qingtian leaned over and grabbed his beard, just like usual, but this time Qingtian didn't giggle, as if he knew that the old orc was going to leave him.
The old orc gently stroked Qingtian's little hands to let the child go, but his beard was loosened. The pair of chubby, white and tender little hands grabbed the old orc's rough fingers and never let go.
The extremely powerful fingers that once fought with the ogre were gentle and seemed to be touching a priceless treasure. The old orc slowly and firmly broke free from the little guy's palm, took a last look with reluctance, then turned around and walked forward.
This time, he did not hesitate at all.
Qingtian cried even harder and shouted, but the old orc did not look back. Yang Baoguang did not notice, but Tang An had the eyes of insight, and he could see that liquid fell on the old orc's cheeks and dripped on the ground.
Perhaps, this is also the reason why the old orcs cannot look back.
Somehow, this scene awakened a memory deep in Tang An's memory.
Earth.
In front of a very luxurious and large magnetic levitation sedan, a little girl was in the arms of a beautiful woman, and she kept calling her father, crying heart-wrenchingly.
The little girl is only four years old, she is Tang An's daughter.
At that time, Tang An also turned his back to her and walked away in great reluctance and pain.
It may be that the nearly identical scene resonated with Tang An. The old orc at this moment was exactly the same as himself. For some reasons, for the future of the child, he had to swallow all his reluctance and pain alone and choose to leave. It was also because Tang An was the one who could understand the mood of the old orc at the moment, so at this moment, Tang An also knew the concerns of the old orc the most, so he spoke in an unskilled orc language and said, "We will use our lives to protect the sunny day."
The old orc was stunned and nodded. This time, he did not hesitate anymore and left quickly.
Tang An turned his head and looked at Yang Baoguang, and found that the big man was secretly wiping his tears. Tang An was also a little sore in his eyes, afraid that Yang Baoguang would see it, so he directly attacked first and asked, "Are you crying?"
"No, no, who cried?" Yang Baoguang wanted to refuse to admit it, and his eyes dodged and did not dare to look over. Tang An laughed and continued to hit the critical attack: "I cried when I cried, what's the embarrassment to admit it."
The old orc is gone.
Entrusting Qingtian to Tang An and Yang Baoguang.
In addition to obtaining the new regional map of World No. 8, which is the one drawn by the old orc on the ground, Tang An and Yang Baoguang also received new task prompts.
"Old Booker's Bone-Slaying Axe, derivative mission, Old Booker's Instruction, safely escorts Sunny to human territory and properly resettled."
To be honest, even if this is not a task, Tang An will complete it.
This is a promise.
Now that we have a map, we naturally follow the map and go to the location designated by the old orcs, but with a child, we still encountered a lot of trouble on the way.
Fortunately, Tang An is obviously more familiar with how to take care of the child than Yang Baoguang. It is more comfortable to hold the child, how to make the child laugh, how to feed the food, or how to deal with it after urinating, Tang An is actually familiar with the road.
"You said you raised your daughter alone. I really didn't believe it at first, but now I believe it." Yang Baoguang was also very impressed. Tang An just smiled and didn't say much about this matter.
Yang Baoguang also saw that Tang An's face was wrong and closed his mouth tactfully.
Tang An looked at the sunny day in his arms and felt very confused.
He wanted to see his daughter now than ever before, but Tang An didn't know where his daughter was now, but it was absolutely certain that his daughter was definitely in artificial space, and he was in a much better place than his own.
All the past passes by little by little, but Tang An made a decision.
That is to find a daughter.
Even if it's just a long distance to see her, it's enough to know that she's doing well.
Just how can it be done?
Tang An thought of the engineer and his previous "adventure". This should be a breakthrough point. After all, it is impossible to find his daughter in the data of hundreds of millions of people in artificial space.
