"Master, do we want to tell grandpa about this?" Li Ke asked.
The off-road vehicle heads south towards the rising sun.
When they came out of City No. 18, they were lonely, and then they met the Freemasons. They set off again after two days of lively life.
It's like a life, everyone will experience the hustle and bustle and bustle, and then return to loneliness.
The road is always your own, and there is never a banquet that never ends in the world.
Qingchen thought for a while: "Don't tell me, the old man has not had much time, so don't let him know about his friend's death."
"Yes," Li Ke thought for a while and responded.
In fact, Qingchen did not have the right to make decisions for the elderly, but he was indeed worried that the elderly would not be able to survive the taboo place No. 002 after learning the bad news.
In the evening, the old man finally woke up completely.
There is sunset in the distance, surrounded by plains and wilderness, and the whole world seems to be coated with orange-red oil paint, magnificent and lonely.
Li Ke helped the old man up in the back row and fed a little with warm water from the thermos pot.
Qingchen suddenly couldn't help asking, "Old man, how did you and that friend meet you?"
He looked up at the rearview mirror, but found that the old man was stunned.
The old man asked, "Have you seen him, right?"
Qingchen was silent for a moment: "Yes."
"You have seen him, but you don't want to tell me, so he is dead," the old man said his guess.
The car was silent.
The old man thought for a while and said, "If you don't tell me, you are worried that I will hear bad news from my old friend, so I can't bear the taboo land No. 002, right?"
"Yes," Qingchen nodded.
"Don't worry, I'm not that vulnerable," said the old man: "And, there are too many farewells I've seen in my life."
"You seem to know that he will die," said Qingchen.
"Let me talk about why we met," the old man said with a smile. "I was not as old as I am now, and I really liked to go out through the secret passage of the Akiha Villa. Once I went to a bar I often went to, and that bar was holding a beer competition."
"That night, most of the people in the bar got drunk, and in the end we were the two of us left," the old man looked at the sunset and recalled: "Later we were drunk too, and we didn't remember what happened again. According to Li Yunjing, we went to the Red Star Boxing Gym and said we wanted to play the grading match together, and we also smashed a lot of things. At that time, I had no money in my pocket, and it was Li Yunjing who helped to pay the money in the boxing Gym, so we were not beaten."
"Since then, I often called him when I went out to drink secretly and did some very outrageous things. Now, thinking about it, that was probably the rare happiness in my life."
"When did you know that he is a member of the God generation?" Qingchen asked.
"Actually, I knew it the next year. Li Yunjing followed him for three months and found some clues," the old man said, "But I didn't expose him, and he never reported my itinerary to the gods. It seems that as long as everyone pretends to be a little bit like, friends can continue to do it."
The old man continued: "In the third year, his mother was seriously ill, but the Shen Dai family refused to let him return to the north. He was very depressed during that period, and I also knew why he was depressed, so he took the initiative to give him some important information, so he gained status and was qualified to provide conditions with the family."
"He went back to the north and accompanied his mother through the last period. When he returned to City No. 18, he took the initiative to confess everything to me," the old man said with a smile: "At that time, he felt very guilty. I took the opportunity to get him fined eight glasses of wine. This time I won the drink."
"It was also from that time that he kept saying that I would use him once, so that he could feel at ease."
"But actually, I know that he has decided in his heart that as long as I use him once, he can choose to die without guilt, so that he will not have to suffer from the torture between family loyalty and friend loyalty. Lu Doujun is different from those of the Shen Dai family. Sometimes I think that it is rare for that dirty family to get out of a person like Lu Doujun."
Lu Dou, God's Age.
"So you know that after using him this time, he will definitely die," Qingchen said softly: "Then why use him?"
The old man smiled: "You may want to hear a very philosophical answer, but my answer is very simple because I am the Lord of Li."
Qingchen was silent.
Just because he was the lord of the Li family, he was willing to be "incarnated" in the Mid-Season Manor for the rest of his life.
Just because he is the Lord of the Li family, he wants to use the best opportunity to get rid of a person who has the most chance to be promoted to a demigod in recent years.
There has never been a method of two-dimensional power in this world. There is no Lu Dou, nor does it have any of Li Xiurui.
"Qingchen," the old man said with a smile: "It is because you knights have never been bound by the world that I envy you, so don't learn from me."
As Qingchen looked up, he suddenly saw two lines of tears flowing from the old man's face from the rearview mirror, but he was still smiling.
"Old man, is this world really so complicated?" Qing Chen asked inexplicably.
"No, if you live a simple life, this world can be simple," the old man replied, "Boy, I don't have the ability to let this world change the rules for me, I hope you have it."
...
...
Countdown to return 31:00:00.
At 17 o'clock in the evening.
Qing Chen in the off-road vehicle saw the magnificent giant tree again standing in the center of the forbidden place of 002.
No matter how many times I have seen it, when Qingchen sees it again, he will always feel particularly shocked.
At this moment, Hu Xiaoniu suddenly exclaimed: "Brother Chen, there seems to be a colorful tail wing dragging down beside the canopy of the big tree!"
Qingchen looked over and found that a tail wing that was more than ten meters long was dragged outside the tree crown, while the other party's body was hidden in the tree crown.
The old man wrapped himself in his sleeping bag and stared blankly: "So what he said is true."
This "he" is Li Shutong's master and the old man's best friend.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! Decades ago, when that friend described the beauty of the outside world to the old man, the old man always felt that the other party was lying to him, because even the Federal Army had never taken corresponding photos, and he had not found such a magical creature.
All this is like a dream that has been longing for decades for the old man, and he has finally met today.
The old man was a little confused.
The next moment, a shadow floated from the sky, just covering the moving off-road vehicle below.
Hu Xiaoniu poked his head out and was stunned. The huge green mountain falcon was hovering over the sky, and his wingspan made people feel like they were covering the sky.
A tweet.
Qingchen was stunned for a moment.
Because he actually understood the other party's meaning: "Here you come back so soon? Where is the old boy Li Shutong."
Qingchen thought for a while and shouted to the sky: "My master has gone to the north, and this time I brought a new knight."
Aoyama Hayao whistled again: "Are you going to have two more annoying brats? Don't get so many knights out. If there are too many knights, it's easy to make trouble."
Qingchen: "..."
It seems that after becoming a knight, he met the shelter conditions of the Forbidden Land No. 002, and he could even understand the meaning conveyed by the creatures in the Forbidden Land.
Aoyama Falcon ignored the off-road vehicle and flew back to the forbidden land of No. 002.
The old man asked strangely: "Is this Aoyama Falcon?"
"Yes," Qingchen nodded: "The relationship with the Knight is pretty good."
The old man asked again: "It seems to be talking to you, can you understand?"
Qingchen nodded: "Yes."
“What does it say?”
“It says welcome the Knight home.”
The old man envied: "This big falcon is quite hospitable."
The off-road vehicle drove towards the big tree, but Qingchen slowed down not long after.
"What's wrong?" the old man asked.
"There are convoys parked outside the Forbidden Land No. 002," said Qingchen. "There are Masonic vehicles and the Federal Army vehicles."
In total, there are probably hundreds of cars, and it seems like a parking lot has been expanded outside the No. 002 taboo land.
The Masonic vehicles were in a mess and obviously experienced a fierce battle. They should have been driven into the forbidden land of No. 002 by the Federal Army.
Qingchen said to Hu Xiaoniu: "Look at whether there are shells in the wilderness outside."
"Yes," Hu Xiaoniu responded: "And the shells are quite dense. It seems that a battle has happened."
At the parking area of the Federal Army, dozens of people were on guard near the cars. When the other party found that a vehicle was approaching, they immediately picked up their weapons.
"I saw their troops number. It should be from the 198th Division of the Second Federation Army. It was the direct unit of Chen's family," said the old man: "The south has always been the private land of Chen. Spades help the wilderness. Time Walkers rebuild their homes here, which will inevitably provoke them."
"Most half of them should have chased into the forbidden land No. 002," Qingchen said in confusion: "Didn't it mean that the Federal Army generally does not easily enter the forbidden land to chase the wilderness."
The old man said: "This taboo land No. 002 is originally on the Chen territory. They know a little more about it. In the early years, Chen had been using prisoners to test the rules of the taboo land."
"Wait, can the prisoners be brought up by them in prison?" Qingchen said curiously. Such things should not be allowed to happen.
"It's not that they have been imprisoned," the old man explained: "It was them who used the PCE Safety Committee to catch the suspect, and then did not file a public prosecution and directly imprisoned Chen's secret prison for use."
Qingchen was stunned for a moment, lynching?
Sure enough, humans still have various ways to avoid artificial intelligence.
The old man thought for a while and said, "We have no grudge against them. There is also a sign of Qing's family in the car. They should not meddle in other people's business, just bypass it."
However, as soon as the old man finished speaking, he saw Qingchen take out an automatic rifle and fire a shot at the Federal Army's convoy.
The group of Chen's direct troops immediately came to the car and chased after him.
The old man was confused: "What are you doing?"
Qingchen did not answer. He did this just because he remembered what Li Shutong once said when he first came to climb the cliff of the green mountains: You still lack an opportunity.
Now, Hu Xiaoniu and Li Ke are also missing an opportunity.
