Grandma Luo passed away peacefully with a faint smile on her face.
Sheng Qingfeng staggered into the house.
Wen Xi and He Tingyan each supported him on one side.
Several tribesmen dressed strangely rushed in and chanted something to the old lady on the bed.
The song is not sad, but surprisingly cheerful.
It seems to be saying that death is not extinction, but the beginning of another journey.
The first ray of sunlight shone into the room. The old man lying on the bed and the orchid on the bedside gradually became blurred, and then turned into a little blue light. The small blue light spots gathered into a dazzling light that swirled above everyone's heads. It stayed on Sheng Qingfeng the longest, and finally flew into the sky.
At the same time, the morning sun broke through the clouds and burst out, filling the sky with a magnificent and brilliant color.
Sheng Qingfeng couldn't help but burst into tears when he saw this scene, and murmured softly: "The sun is out, Xiaomin, you must have seen it..."
After attending Luo Min's farewell ceremony, the villagers dispersed one after another, and Xiaohua saw Wen Xi and his party out of the village.
"After sending you a thousand miles, we must finally say goodbye. Sister Xi, I'll take you here. You're about to return, so you won't need me as a guide anymore."
"Okay, let's say goodbye." Wen Xi nodded.
For safety reasons, she didn't want Xiaohua to have too much contact with people outside.
"These are the seeds of Xiaoba's favorite fruit."
Wen Xi rubbed the crying white ball in Xiaohua's arms and handed the box that had been prepared earlier to Xiaohua.
"And this, I drew it last night."
Xiaohua took it and looked at the grandmother with a bright smile on her face. It was so lifelike that she felt as if the real person was right in front of her. A layer of light gradually appeared in her lonely eyes.
After thanking Wen Xi solemnly, she carefully folded the portrait and put it in her arms.
"Sister Xi, I'm going to take my people away from here." Xiaohua said, glancing at Cheng Ruolin who was standing in the distance. "I trust you, but I don't want to take the risk with the others."
The serious expression on his face seemed to have grown up rapidly overnight.
She is the current clan leader and must shoulder the heavy responsibility.
"Okay." Wen Xi nodded in understanding.
After all, the Luo people have a lifespan that exceeds that of ordinary people. If this is known by someone with ulterior motives, it will inevitably bring disaster.
"Remember to take away the valuables stored in the southeast corner of the cave when you leave." Wen Xi reminded.
"No, Sister Xi, Grandma has already told us..."
"Listen, Xiaohua. This matter was decided by the nation long before we set out. Your people have helped us repel the looters and have silently protected us for so many years. This is what you deserve. Moreover, now that you have been implicated by us and have been forced to leave the place where your ancestors have lived for generations, I only hope that this little token of my gratitude can help you rebuild a new paradise in the future. Of course, if you and Xiaoba miss me, feel free to come find me anytime. My door is always open to you. Don't forget, you still have a home in China!"
"Xiaoxi is right, Huaer, we are all your relatives. Remember to come back and see us often, okay?" Sheng Qingfeng said with red eyes.
"Okay, Grandpa Sheng..."
Xiaohua's eyes were filled with tears and she nodded vigorously.
After Yiyi said goodbye, Wenxi and his group returned to the camp.
By this time it was already daybreak, Captain Gao and the others had woken up one after another. They had just discovered that there were fewer people in the camp, which was in a mess. They were relieved to see them return safely.
However, after seeing Gou Qing thrown on the ground by He Tingyan, they were so surprised that they were speechless.
Ling Liang was the first to come to his senses and asked anxiously, "What's going on?! Professor Gou..."
"Dead." He Tingyan said indifferently.
