Although the departure of Da Ding and Xiao Hu can be regarded as an eternal pain in my heart, these things have passed after all, and people need to look forward.
Seeing that everyone in the village was rejoicing because the mistress had been eliminated, I finally felt a little comforted in my heart.
As time passed, Xiao Ding's health got better day by day, especially with Baozhu's help. He recovered his previous vigor in just two days.
Now that I have obtained everything in the cave, and thinking that I still have a lot of things to do next, I feel that it is time for me to leave.
Although this village does hold many happy and warm memories for me, I have never been someone who can settle down in one place.
Thinking this way, after tossing and turning in my bed for a long time, I saw a ray of light gradually appearing on the horizon, so I went to find the leader and said:
"Everyone has worked hard these days, and now the monsters in the cave have been killed. You don't have to worry about anything anymore."
"I've stayed in your village for such a long time. I'm very grateful for your thoughtful care. But now I have to continue my journey."
The morning sunlight shone brightly on the road. Seeing the good weather outside, I became more determined to leave Xuyushen Village.
But after hearing what I said, the leader's expression instantly became confused. He frowned and then said hesitantly:
"Actually, there's something I've always wanted to tell you, but I just never had the time. Now that you're leaving, I think it's best for me to tell you."
The leader's expression looked so serious when he said these words that even I felt a little nervous inside.
The atmosphere in the air suddenly became tense. Feeling the cool breeze blowing in from the window, the leader's sonorous and powerful voice echoed in my ears:
"Actually, I've been thinking a lot these past few days. I feel that our village can only grow stronger under your leadership, even though it's a bit difficult."
"But I still think you are the most suitable person to be the leader of this village. I hope to give my position as leader to you. I wonder if you can agree to it."
The chief had a resolute expression on his face when he said these words, but after hearing them, I felt a little unhappy in my heart.
Although I have developed a little bit of friendship with the villagers of Xuyoushen Village after spending such a long time together, I cannot agree to their request to be restrained.
With this in mind, I firmly refused, "Thank you so much for your kindness, but my work is already done, so I really can't agree to your offer."
As he spoke, he looked out the window with some melancholy and continued, "I have a lot of other things to do. I really can't waste too much time here."
Seeing that my rejection was so decisive, the leader could only sigh softly and then said nothing more.
Maybe the other party had already thought that I would refuse before making such a request, but he still didn't give up and wanted to say it to see if I would agree.
After coming out of the leader's house, I went straight back to my room to pack my things. Although I didn't have much stuff, I still had to pack it up.
However, before leaving, I still had another thing on my mind. Thinking of what Da Ding had told me before he left, my heart became even heavier.
After hesitating for a moment, I went straight to Xiao Ding. When I found him, he was still staring at his brother's photo.
Seeing this situation, I couldn't help but feel extremely anxious in my heart, and I couldn't bear to continue speaking:
"I'm going to leave here soon, but before I leave, I think I still have something to tell you. You must remember it for me."
After saying this, I looked around before continuing, "You must never awaken the power within you at will. It is very dangerous."
After hearing my instructions, Xiao Ding hesitated for a moment. His expression looked so desolate, but he still gritted his teeth and asked:
"Of course I know about this matter, but can I beg you, if you really want to leave, then take me away from this place with you, okay?"
Xiao Ding's eyes looked so sad when he said this. If I had been soft-hearted at that time, I might have agreed to it directly.
But when I thought about the extremely difficult road ahead, I suddenly felt a little reluctant in my heart. I couldn't bear to drag the other person down with me.
Thinking of this, I said helplessly, "I still have a long way to go, and I really can't take you with me. You should consider your safety."
Just as the two of us were quietly thinking about these things, there was a sudden knock on the door by the leader. The other party was also surprised to see me here.
