The Qin family's house was filled with people inside and outside. Even after three months, many people still came every day to express their grief over the passing of the old man of the Qin family.
When Xue Kong arrived at the Qin family, his appearance immediately attracted the attention of many people.
Many eyes turned towards Xue Kong.
"Brother Xue Kong, you're here." A haggard middle-aged man took the lead and walked towards Xue Kong.
Xue Kong nodded: "Brother Qin, I'm sorry."
This middle-aged man is the eldest son of the Qin family. He has been out to sea with Xue Kong several times. Although there is a big age difference between the two, they are like brothers.
"Come and light a stick of incense for my father." The eldest son of the Qin family grabbed Xue Kong's arm, and the two of them entered the Qin family together.
Along the way, other people also looked at Xue Kong.
Among them were many young people who had sailed with Xue Kong before and had a good relationship with him.
Naturally, I have a better impression of Xue Kong.
As for the others who had never dealt with Xue Kong, there was respect in their eyes. It was simply because of the rumor that circulated ten years ago.
Xue Kong has a fairy background.
It was precisely for this reason that Xue Kong had not encountered any malicious treatment in Jinlin City over the past ten years. When everyone met him, they would at least avoid him, not to mention how much respect he showed.
I won't go looking for trouble.
The stable life of the past ten years has all depended on the instructions of the old man of the Qin family.
Xue Kong himself gradually realized this later. In his heart, in addition to respect, he also felt gratitude towards the old man of the Qin family.
He does have a cultivation family background.
But that cultivation family is too far away from here.
As the saying goes, distant water cannot quench nearby fire.
Xue Kong is a man who can clearly distinguish right from wrong, and he is well aware of this.
Xue Kong held three burning incense sticks and bowed deeply to the body of the old man of the Qin family in front of the hall, and then inserted the incense into the ash jar.
He took a deep breath.
I said to myself, "Rest in peace, old man. Thank you for your care over the years."
Although I feel sorry for the passing of Mr. Qin.
But Xue Kong didn't know why, he didn't feel sad in his heart.
Perhaps they felt that it was a great blessing for a person to live to the end of his life, not to mention that the old man of the Qin family lived for more than a hundred years.
Perhaps I will have no regrets in this life.
After bidding farewell to the old man of the Qin family, Xue Kong left the Qin family. On his way home, when he turned the corner, he saw two people standing on the corner of the sparsely populated street.
"It's him." Xue Kong was a little surprised when he saw the two men.
One of them was Pan Mo, who had harbored ill will towards him ten years ago. In the past ten years, the other party seemed to have disappeared out of thin air and they had not met again.
Now that the old man of the Qin family has passed away, it is a farewell.
Next to Pan Mo stood a man covered in a black robe. His face could not be seen clearly, and it was impossible to tell whether he was a man or a woman.
Xue Kong just took a glance and then looked away.
He was not willing to have too much communication with Pan Mo.
Pan Mo and the man in black robe stood there, staring at Xue Kong quietly without saying a word.
"Sister Ruyi." Xue Kong returned home and saw Ruyi waiting outside the courtyard gate. He smiled slightly and quickened his pace to walk over. "Are you waiting for me?"
"I forgot to ask you if you would come back for dinner. I wanted to come look for you, but my father is not feeling well and I can't leave." Ruyi's appearance is still the same as before, and she even has a bit more mature charm of a woman.
But Xue Kong could clearly see the fatigue in her eyes.
Xue Kong's eyes showed a hint of heartache, and he stepped forward to hug Ruyi tightly in his arms: "Thank you for your hard work over the years."
Ruyi shook her head.
If a girl from another family had gone through these ten years of suffering and been comforted by her loved one, she would probably not be able to hold back her tears on the spot, or at least her eyes would be red.
But Ruyi didn't change at all.
She simply smiled faintly and shook her head, saying, "As a son, you should serve your parents; as a wife, you should serve your husband. This is what we should do since ancient times. I don't find it hard."
"On the contrary, you have risked your life at sea over the years and sacrificed so much for this family. You should be the one who has worked hard."
Ruyi touched Xue Kong's cheek with admiring eyes.
Xue Kong smiled.
He had never seen Ruyi's strength in other women.
He often thought that he was extremely lucky to be able to marry such a good woman in his life. Compared with her, all the women in the world were not worth mentioning.
The two entered the house and had lunch with the elderly Mr. Zhong.
Xue Kong went to the backyard again and sat cross-legged under the towering tree. It was not the first time he did this. It was an accidental opportunity. After sitting like this, he felt comfortable and familiar, so he got used to it.
Gently stroke the rough bark of the big tree.
There was a hint of confusion in Xue Kong's black and white eyes.
"I don't know why, but every time I sit under this tree, my mood becomes extremely peaceful. This tree makes me feel very comfortable." Xue Kong murmured to himself.
"Perhaps the seed worked. The seed transformed from the demon beast's body might have this effect."
Xue Kong leaned against a tree, slowly closed his eyes, and took a nap.
He felt regretful about the departure of the old man from the Qin family just now, but now he didn't think about that at all.
Even his mind was empty at this moment.
Think about nothing, just a blank.
His state of mind entered a strange realm, which Xue Kong himself could not understand. He just felt that the feeling as if his soul was floating out was very charming.
