Xiaying looked at him, "Didn't I say before I left that I shouldn't do extra things? Didn't you stop Qing Xiu?"

"Try to... stop it." A helpless smile appeared on Kuang Lu's face, "That child... would rather cut off his tortured hand in order to come to find you... it's okay, I... have no choice..."

"He is not your grandson, you know." Xia Ying whispered, "Your grandson would have died long ago. If I hadn't saved you, you would have killed the first person he killed in this world."

The old man let out a sigh as if he was sighing.

In the quiet and cold cell, they turned into a ball of white mist, slowly rising and disappearing.

"That's also...I brought him to this world." Kuang Lu's voice was very low and very weak, "I'm old... I can't stand it, the younger generation suffers."

"I told you at the beginning that a person like Qing Xiu who has a broken heart cannot stay by his side, and you will sooner or later fall into his hands."

"Sir, what a god is going on." Kuang Lu raised his head with a look of pleading, "I, I'm sorry to you... many...shouldn't say, and I can't say all...I'm all..."

"It's okay, I really can't say something I shouldn't say. I've never mentioned it to you," Xia Ying looked at Kuang Lu, "What did you say to them?"

Kuang Lu frowned slightly. He said too much last night. With the current breath, it is probably impossible to repeat all of them again.

"Four things." Kuang Lu coughed a few times with difficulty, and a blood mist spit out, "The first thing is that you are the messenger of the Heavenly Dao, adhering to the...the will of the Heavenly Dao."

"Um."

"The second thing is the names and characteristics of several of us... and the other is that the Linghe River at the foot of Daizong Mountain... is not called by us. On the contrary, we have been... trying our best to stop the... of the Linghe River."

"Um."

"The fourth thing...is that sentence."

"Which sentence?"

"The way of heaven... is to be taken back, His preference for mortals."

Xiaying frowned, "Where did you hear this sentence--"

"Your...divination letter..." Kuang Lu apologized, "I saw it by chance when I was sorting it out..."

"what else?"

Kuang Lu shook his head, "Only...this sentence."

Xiaying looked at the old man coldly, "You should be glad that this is the only sentence? Otherwise, you will be more than dead today."

Kuang Lu laughed? He tried his best to make his face look less painful, but the slight vibration caused by every laughter brought about a tearing pain.

Is the pain completely dispersed? The limbs and bones were crushed together.

The curtain of death is about to land.

Kuang Lu looked at Xiaying, "Have you got what you want this trip...?"

"... Maybe." Xiaying replied? "I had a very happy last night."

Kuang Lu responded softly, "Then... OK? Then next? You plan to..."

"Leave Luoyang for the time being."

Kuang Lu was a little surprised, "But you..."

"There is nothing I want here," Xia Ying whispered, "so it's time to leave."

Maybe there has never been any in the world.

"I...I have a reluctant request..." Kuang Lu's body began to tremble slightly? It seemed as if he was forcibly saying the last words? "Please...Sir..."

"you say."

"Can you... take care of Qing Xiu for me..." Kuang Lu said with struggle, his voice inevitably fell, "Take care of him, discipline him..."

"I can't do something like this."

"You...you don't need...extra, what do you do..." Kuang Lu's teeth trembled? "As long as you don't drive him away... don't let him...get fend for himself..."

Kuang Lu's eyes that were already lost were wide open? He looked at Xiaying with some expectations and begging.

Xiaying did not agree immediately. He looked at Kuang Lu's face in silence? "...I have a question, can you answer me first."

"You...you asked."

"Caring about someone? What does it feel like."

Kuang Lu let out a subtle sigh? A little smile appeared on his wrinkled face.

"I'll... miss him."

"What would you think of her?"

Kuang Lu shook his head? “It doesn’t matter what you think…it just often… think of him, think of him…”

In the dirty and dark cell, Xia Ying stood there, thinking.

When he raised his eyes again, the old man on the Xingjia had stopped breathing, and Kuang Lu's eyes were still open, as if waiting for the answer that Xia Ying had not given him.

Xiaying raised her hand to help the old man close his eyes.

"I understand, thank you." He whispered, "As for your wishes, I will try my best."

...

In the hazy state, Wei Xingzhen felt the noise around him.

There were familiar voices calling his name, and tears dripping on the back of his hands, but these feelings were particularly far away, as if they were coming from another world.

Something lingered around him, like a ray of light, or a chain.

Gradually, the noisy sound faded, and replaced by a somewhat disturbing silence.

At midnight, Wei Xingzhen opened his eyes and looked closer, and saw Du Xuanfeng crossing his legs, sitting at the table not far away dozing off.

Wei Xingzhen raised his hand and found that all the clothes on his body had been replaced and the wounds were bandaged properly.

The scene in front of him was still a little vague, and he shook his head hard, trying to wake himself up.

Du Qiangfeng was awakened by the movement, "You're awake."

"Why are you here..." Wei Xingzhen sat up with a frown. He endured the soreness and weakness on his body, "Where is A Yan."

"Well..." Du Huanfeng scratched his head, "Calm down first--"

Before Du Huanfeng finished speaking, Wei Xingzhen almost changed his face. He jumped straight from the bed and rushed to Du Huanfeng's side a few steps, "What do you mean by this-"

"A Yan is fine, A Yan is fine," Du Huanfeng quickly pointed the key point for Wei Xingzhen, "You go back to the bed and lie down first."

Wei Xingzhen was skeptical, "What about her?"

"Because when I asked you to get into the trap, I introduced Mei Shier to the eldest princess's legs. Your Majesty was furious and locked up Feng Yan at this moment." Du Qiangfeng replied, "But you know, in this situation, Feng Yan is the person who knows the most about the inside story. What can you do without her here? She asked me to tell you not to worry or to look for her. At most, she will come back tomorrow morning."

"Where is she being locked up?"

"...Are you sure you want to see her like this?"

Wei Xingzhen let go of Du Kuangfeng's hand and began to tear the bandage on his body - it was too easy for him to hide the wound.

Du Huanfeng looked at the scene with a headache, "Don't tear it up, Feng Yan is so wise. She doesn't know what you are doing so quickly?"

"Where is she now?"

"Oh...I'll take you there."

...

On Daizong Mountain, Jia Guheng used a knife to dig a tomb under a pine and cypress. Xia Ying threw in a blind stick that Kuang Lu would usually use.

Qing Xiu looked at this scene in confusion - from the moment he saw Mr. Xia during the day today, he had been trying to explain to Xia Ying that Kuang Lu had betrayed them, and Kuang Lu told everything he knew to the middle-aged man named Du Kuangfeng.

But Xiaying had no response to these things, and even had to come and build a nameless tomb for Kuanglu before everyone left.

After burying Kuang Lu's blind stick, Xiaying stood in front of the tomb with her eyes closed for a while. The others were waiting aside with boredom. Only Jia Guheng stood behind Xiaying very piously, and recited the scriptures for Kuang Lu's salvation with rumor.

"Let's go." Xiaying said.

Qing Xiu was the first to jump up and finally could go somewhere else. He excitedly raised his right arm to the sky and said, "Let's go!"

But Xiaying suddenly turned around at this moment and looked at the boy, "I don't know why you can still laugh at this time?"

"Oh..." Qing Xiu was stunned. He didn't understand the meaning of Mr. Xia's words very much.

"There will never be anyone in the world who cares about you like Kuang Lu." Xia Ying said.

Qing Xiu was a little puzzled, but more of it was fear - the fear that was hated by Mr. Xia.

He could feel a subtle emotion, for example, Mr. Xia did not like him to laugh at this time.

So Qing Xiu's face cried. He tried his best to look sad, but his whole face became weird and distorted.

"never mind."

Xia Ying turned around.

"If you want to laugh, just laugh," he said to himself, "Anyway, he probably hopes you laugh."
