After the two of them had a good time, they went to find Zhang Lao at the suggestion of the Star Emperor.
Although he was about to run away, Xingdi still had some plans he wanted to tell Mr. Zhang.
Luo Yun agreed decisively. Elder Zhang had even promised to teach her the forbidden skill, so it would be a good idea to learn it along the way.
Anyway, he had already infiltrated the mecha species' channel and could keep an eye on Shigemitsu's progress. As long as he could slip away before the enemy arrived, it wouldn't be a big problem.
"Star Emperor, lead the way. We'll fly directly over!"
Xiacheng is only a few hundred kilometers away from Shenzhou, and the distance is even shorter if you fly in a straight line. Even considering the impact on the environment, it will take a few minutes to get there.
…
…
At this time, Shenzhou, Juewang District
In the bustling steel city, high-rise buildings are lined up one after another. In this place where every inch of land is valuable, there is a huge mansion.
The misty rain falls silently, and the water dripping from the eaves makes a sound
Zhang Lao holds the baby in his arms and dozes off in the rocking chair, listening to the sound of water falling in large and small places, rocking with the breeze. It seems that he is one with nature, coexisting with the wind and rain.
Until he heard the noise from the depths of the world.
"In the name of the Demon King..."
It seems to be there and not there, like a sudden fantasy, or like a flash of inspiration.
His drooping eyelids suddenly opened, his cloudy old eyes gleaming with brilliance. After a brief moment of surprise, he burst into laughter...
This also woke up Lin Xing in her arms. However, the first thing she did when she woke up was to quickly open the small bag in her arms.
Seeing the lollipops neatly arranged inside, she breathed a sigh of relief. She put her hand into the bag, and the cool touch made her heart warm.
In this summer, even on a rainy day, if you sleep with candy in your arms, the candy will melt a little.
At this moment, this slightly cool touch was obviously caused by the careful Mr. Zhang.
Carefully peeled two pieces, put one in his mouth and handed the other to the old man.
"Grandpa Zhang, why are you laughing all of a sudden?"
"Haha, I just thought of some happy things."
Zhang Lao took the candy and put it in his mouth, then patted the other person's head lovingly: "Kid, now that you're awake, go practice.
Only when you are strong enough can you protect the people you want to protect. Your parents are still waiting for you to come back to the other side."
Zhang Lao carefully wove this story, hoping to relieve Lin Xing of the trauma. However, he didn't know that Lin Xing already knew the situation at that time...
Lin Xing: 'Mom and Dad will never come back. Grandpa is lying.'
Although she also wanted to believe the story her grandfather made up, it could only fool third-grade children at best, but she was about to start fourth grade!
But my grandfather is a good man. If he wants to teach me martial arts, I can just practice it myself.
…
…
Seeing this look, Mr. Zhang couldn't help but feel distressed. This kid was indeed obedient, but he always felt like something important was missing.
Is it that the story I made up is not attractive enough?
As he pondered, Mr. Zhang chewed the lollipop in his mouth. It was sour and sweet, with a hint of technology.
Well, it still has the same taste that hasn't changed in over 800 years. As expected of humans, they won't let themselves down. But it's worth the sacrifice of my youth.
He chewed the candy in three or five bites and threw the stick accurately into the trash can dozens of meters away.
Looking at Lin Xing who was eating candy and guiding the Qi flow in the hall according to the exercises, Zhang Lao couldn't help but remind her: "Xiao Xing, eat less lollipops in the future, it's not healthy."
…
As soon as he finished speaking, a stream of light fell in the wind and rain towards him. Zhang Lao was about to intercept it, but he saw the person coming first.
So he quickly stopped everyone nearby who was about to take action.
The flash of light cuts through the wind and rain and falls to the ground like lightning.
"Senior Zhang, we are disturbing you."
…
…
In the hall...
A familiar voice sounded, and Lin Xing, who was practicing, suddenly stopped and subconsciously wanted to hide his big treasures.
However, when he looked down, his lollipop was nowhere to be found.
I ran out of the door, only to see that bad sister peeling her lollipops, chewing one after another in a few bites...
Seeing this, she felt a lump in her throat. She could no longer hold back her already sad mood and burst into tears.
Seeing this, Mr. Zhang couldn't help but feel distressed: "Why are you still bullying a child?"
"She owes me for saving her last time. Besides, eating less saccharin and pigments is good for your health." Facing Zhang Laowen's reprimand, Xingdi shrugged indifferently.
Upon hearing this, Mr. Zhang was speechless. Repaying a life-saving favor with a lollipop was strange, but it made sense...
"How about I buy you two tons on her behalf?"
"No, I only want the one in her hand." As he said that, Xingdi put two more lollipops into his mouth and chewed them at the same time.
The crisp sound made Lin Xing feel even more pain in her heart, so she cried even louder.
…
On the side, Luo Yun couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth.
She never imagined that the Star Emperor could do such a thing as snatching a little girl's lollipop.
Luo Yun decided to pretend she didn't see it. The great emperor of the human race must have her reasons for acting this way... right?
…
In just two sentences, Star Emperor had eaten all the lollipops until only one was left.
"Come on, stop crying. I'll give you one." As he said that, he stuffed the lollipop into Lin Xing's mouth.
Seeing this, the little Loli couldn't help but feel a little familiar...
The next moment, the devil's whisper rang in his ears: "Consider it a loan from me, I'll come back to collect the interest next time."
