Pacific Ocean, Sky Island, Inside the Secret Cave.
"Old Bear, what's going on!"
Lu Beike looked at the old Xiong in front of him in surprise. He looked weak and had gauze wrapped around his wrist. He seemed to be two different people from the energetic Xiong Siguang before.
"It's nothing, boss, it's just a little accident." Mr. Xiong shook his head and did not tell Lu Beike about Murong Ruolan's forced confession from him.
"How is Yuan'er's situation?" Lu Beike naturally cared about Lu Yuan.
This time, Xiong Siguang was asked to leave Tiandao just for Lu Yuan's sake.
"Don't worry, Boss, the third young master is safe now. Murong Ruolan doesn't know where he is." Yes, according to Xiong Siguang's knowledge, Murong Ruolan did not know the whereabouts of Lu Yuan.
After all, he certainly didn't understand Murong Ruolan's thoughts.
Lu Beike felt a little relieved.
"Then you go to Peach Blossom Health Island to rest for a while. Go now." Then Lu Beike said again.
Obviously, even though Mr. Xiong hid his serious injuries, Lu Beike, with his sharp eyesight, could naturally see that Mr. Xiong was seriously injured.
But since Mr. Xiong didn't want to say anything, Lu Beike didn't ask any more questions.
After all, he and Xiong Siguang are not so much master and servant as friends, captain and team member.
The two are of the same age, met during the war, and have gone through life and death together on the border, and have forged a deep friendship.
Lu Beike also knew that Mr. Xiong had an extremely resolute personality, rarely showing his emotions and rarely showing his vulnerable side. Therefore, since he was unwilling to say anything, Lu Beike didn't ask.
Therefore, at this time, Lu Beike just asked Mr. Xiong to go to Peach Blossom Resort Island to rest. In fact, he could see that Mr. Xiong was seriously injured, but he did not point out that this was a sign of respect for Mr. Xiong.
Obviously, Mr. Xiong also understood what Lu Beike meant.
A trace of gratitude and tacit understanding flashed in his eyes.
Yes, the captain always understands him.
This feeling, Mr. Xiong thinks is really good, really good.
After all, how many confidants can a person have in this world?
When he was in his twenties, he joined the army and met Lu Beike. From then on, the two formed a deep friendship. He even gave up his identity as the eldest young master of the Xiong family and even the head of the Xiong family, and was willing to be a servant beside Lu Beike.
Although there is a very important reason for this, the friendship between the two also plays a certain role.
However, although I am grateful, but...
"Thank you, captain, but, captain, I have something to tell you." Mr. Xiong took a deep breath, as if it was difficult to say this sentence.
"What's wrong, Old Xiong, you still have to be polite to me, just say it." Lu Beike was startled and didn't understand what Old Xiong was doing. After all, the two of them usually speak straightforwardly, and rarely do so like today.
It looks like this.
"Captain, I, I'm leaving here."
"Ah?" Lu Beike was stunned, "What do you mean..."
"Yes, captain, I want to leave the Lu family." Mr. Xiong finally said the words, but it was still very difficult to say.
"Old Xiong, are you going back to the Wujiang family?" Lu Beike knew that this time Xiong went to look for Lu Yuan and went to Wujiang. Perhaps this trip back to the Xiong family made him feel homesick and homesick.
burst out.
Therefore, he is leaving the Lu family and returning to the Xiong family.
"No." Unexpectedly, Mr. Xiong still shook his head.
At this time, Lu Beike couldn't figure out. He left the Lu family but didn't return to the Xiong family. Where were he going?
However, Lu Beike obviously saw that Mr. Xiong was not willing to say where he wanted to go.
"Okay, Old Xiong, I once told you that you can leave the Lu family and return to the Lu family at any time. Now, this sentence is still valid forever!" Lu Beike nodded.
"Thank you, captain!" Mr. Xiong pursed his lips tightly. When he heard these words, he was moved.
"It's just, Old Xiong, if you leave the Lu family, you are no longer qualified to use the Five Willow Jade Mirror." When Lu Beike said this, he also sighed heavily, "Although I don't want to do this, after all, this is the family
Rules passed down for thousands of years!"
"I, I know." When he heard Wuliu Jingjing, Mr. Xiong's originally heavy face suddenly turned gray again, a color that seemed to have been beaten by autumn frost. He was extremely decadent, "But, I
, I have been thinking about it for a long time, captain, it has been more than thirty years, it is time to give up!"
Although Old Xiong's face was gray, his words were very decisive.
After hearing what Mr. Xiong said, Lu Beike was also shaken.
When he looked at Mr. Xiong carefully and saw Mr. Xiong's gray face, he couldn't help but have tears in his eyes.
Of course he knew how difficult it was for Mr. Xiong to make this decision!
"Captain, I, I just hope that I can take another look at the Five Willow Jade Mirror before I leave!" Mr. Xiong raised his head and looked at Lu Beike, with a kind of uncertainty in his eyes.
After all, Wuliu Jade Mirror is not something you can look at anytime you want.
"good!"
Unexpectedly, Lu Beike immediately agreed without even thinking, "Follow me."
The two never spoke again.
Lu Beike is in front, and Mr. Xiong is behind.
The two of them walked zigzag along the secret cave, and they didn't know how long they walked.
Finally, we came to a stone room.
This stone room is surrounded by jade. Even though it is deep underground, the room is filled with soft light.
On the ground, there were thick clouds of white water mist.
In the stone chamber, the most eye-catching thing is the spherical jade-like thing on a flat rock.
It is as smooth as jade, and its whole body is pure off-white, without any flaws, and it looks perfect.
The two came to the front.
Lu Beike turned gently, and soon, the jade was slowly smudged like ink. At first, it was blurry, but gradually, the jade was like a screen, and a big green tree appeared.
, there is a rock under the tree. The rock is very smooth, as if it has been rounded.
Beside the rocks, there are several light blue flowers.
But the flowers are obviously picked and have no roots, but the colors are still very bright.
However, there was no one around at this time.
"She hasn't come today yet." Lu Beike looked at the jade screen, his tone seemed a little regretful and sad.
"That's the flower she picked. It's the flower she told me about. It's a flower unique to the Valley Continent. It's really as beautiful as she said, as beautiful as her..." Old Xiong looked at it blankly.
The flowers on the jade stone, my hands gently caressed the jade stone and murmured.
"Although you can only come here twice a year, she, she seems to come every day." Lu Beike's tone also became a bit gentle, as if full of memories, "She still loves you so much..."
As soon as I brushed it, tears flowed out of Mr. Xiong, who almost never sheds tears.
"Achu... I'm sorry, I, I can't come to see you from now on. Moreover, you don't know that I can't come to see you. You will still come every day..."
He looked at the blue flowers and burst into tears.
"It would be great if you could go to the Valley Continent." Lu Beike also murmured with red eyes, "It's a pity that the five major families each have their own family rules and will never let outsiders use their passages."
"I'm very satisfied with this." Old Xiong smiled sadly, "Actually, there was once an opportunity to go to the Valley Continent before me. However, I know that there is one more thing in the world than going to the Valley Continent.
The mainland is more important! I will give up the opportunity to go to the Valley Continent for that matter!"
With that said, Mr. Xiong suddenly stood up straight and looked at Lu Beike again, "Captain, I'm leaving!"
With that said, Mr. Xiong didn't hesitate at all this time, and walked out of the secret cave with quick strides.
Made it all the way outside.
Looking at the blue sky and the flying seabirds, he suddenly felt enlightened.
Third Young Master, Miss Zhou, thank you.
Thank you for making me seem to relive the past with Achu again.
It's you who remind me of the most beautiful feelings in the world.
