"Patriarch Chen, Brother Qingyu's funeral is over, and it's time for me to leave."
The next day, in the family lobby, Dong Tianyun came again to say goodbye.
This time Chen Tianjing did not try to persuade him to stay, but clapped his hands.
Soon, a tribesman walked into the lobby carrying a tray.
"Friend Dong, you have traveled thousands of miles to bring Qingyu back. This is a great favor to our clan. We have no way to repay this kindness. We can only express our gratitude. Please don't be polite, friend Dong."
But Dong Tianyun didn't even look at it after hearing it, and then bowed and refused:
"Clan leader Chen, Qingyu and I are good friends. Sending her body back to the clan this time is also my duty as a good friend. It cannot be called a favor. Besides, you have already thanked me for leaving it to you for the past few days. I really cannot accept other precious things."
Dong Tianyun's eyes were clear and he spoke frankly.
Seeing that Qingyu could make such a good friend, Chen Tianjing was also deeply impressed in his heart, but he still smiled and said:
"It's okay. Our thank-you gift is not very generous. You may want to take a look first."
After saying that, the tribesman lifted the white cloth on the tray, revealing the items on the tray.
Even Dong Tianyun was stunned after seeing it, because placed on the tray were three locust leaves of strange colors.
"These locust leaves are the specialties of our tribe. Please accept them."
After seeing this, Dong Tianyun hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded, did not refuse, and put the locust leaves away.
He originally thought it was some rare resource, or something else precious, but if it was just a few locust leaves, it wouldn't be a big deal.
After accepting the locust leaves, Dong Tianyun bowed again and said goodbye.
Chen Tianjing also sent someone to see him off.
After leaving the mass grave mountain, Dong Tianyun followed the same path he came from and headed towards Qingzhou.
At nightfall, Dong Tianyun was not in a hurry to travel, but prepared to take a rest. The road ahead was still long, and he was unfamiliar with the place, so it was better to stay in the best condition.
As for why he didn't encounter too many accidents on his way here, it was because there was a blue wolf behind him at the time, protecting him, or perhaps it should be said that it was protecting Brother Qingyu.
After choosing a suitable treetop, Dong Tianyun prepared to lie down and rest.
However, when recalling the Chen family's funeral in the past few days, Dong Tianyun shook his head again.
The Chen family's funeral was sloppy. The key point was that he did not see sadness or grief on the faces of those Chen family members. The people in the family were even more relaxed and comfortable, and they rarely went to the ancestral hall to worship.
He originally wanted to pay tribute to the soul of his friend, but was stopped by the Chen family, who said that due to family rules, outsiders were not allowed to enter the ancestral hall.
This also made Dong Tianyun more disappointed with the Chen family.
He didn't know why Chen Qingyu insisted on returning to the Hui ethnic group, but if he was born in such a family, he would definitely not be like this.
But things have already passed, Brother Qingyu is dead, and there is no point in saying these things.
Dong Tianyun lay on the treetop, emptying his mind, facing the bright moon and the breeze, his eyes closed naturally.
"Where is this?"
Dong Tianyun looked at the white world around her in her sleep, with a dazed look on her face.
At this moment, a floating figure slowly appeared before his eyes.
"Chen, Brother Chen?"
Looking at the figure in front of him, Dong Tianyun spoke in surprise.
Chen Qingyu cupped his hands and said:
"Thank you, Brother Dong, for seeing me off this time. Qingyu is very grateful."
"Brother Qingyu, you are too polite. This is a promise between you and me, it is nothing."
The two smiled at each other and did not continue the topic. Instead, they talked about the past. When they talked about some funny things, they laughed out loud, as if they had endless topics to talk about.
But as time passed, Chen Qingyu slowly put away the smile on his face and said seriously:
"Brother Dong, we are separated this time, and I don't know when we will meet again. The three locust leaves given to you by our clan leader contain the totem power of our clan. That green locust leaf can protect Brother Dong..."
"Brother Dong, please take care of yourself in the future!"
"Brother Chen, too!"
As the farewell sounded, Chen Qingyu's figure in the dream also disappeared.
When the first ray of sunlight in the morning shone onto Dong Tianyun's face through the gaps between the leaves, Dong Tianyun finally woke up.
After being surprised that he had slept for several hours, Dong Tianyun quickly thought of what he had dreamed last night.
In his dream, he had a long conversation with Brother Chen, as if he had returned to the old days.
The images in the dream were so clear that he couldn't tell whether it was reality or a dream.
But then Dong Tianyun seemed to have thought of something, and quickly took out the three locust leaves in his arms, looked at them carefully, and murmured:
"The green locust leaves can keep your vitality alive."
"Two-colored locust leaves can dramatically increase your realm!"
"As for the last locust leaf..."
With the mentality of giving it a try, Dong Tianyun injected his energy and blood into the locust leaf.
When the color of the locust leaves turned into light red, it quickly disappeared and returned to its original color, which made Dong Tianyun doubtful.
At this moment, the locust leaf in his hand suddenly sparkled. Recalling what Chen Qingyu said last night, Dong Tianyun hurriedly held his breath and observed his surroundings.
After a while, the figure of a warrior in the Blood Coagulation Realm appeared in front of Dong Tianyun. As the figure quickly passed by and moved away, the light emitted by the locust leaf in his hand gradually disappeared.
After witnessing the effect of the locust leaves in his hand, Dong Tianyun no longer had any doubts in his heart. At the same time, he looked towards the direction of the mass grave mountain, and his eyes were soon relieved:
"Brother Chen, take care!"
After saying goodbye, Dong Tianyun no longer hesitated and continued to walk away. However, compared to when she came, Dong Tianyun looked very relaxed at this moment.
…
Deep in the mass grave mountain, a green wolf was lying on a patch of grass. The green wolf was tall, with deep eyes that reflected a deep green light.
However, the blue wolf was not in good condition at the moment. There were several blood stains on its smooth fur, and it was limping when it walked. Upon closer inspection, it was not difficult to find that the blue wolf was covered with wounds, and the most serious scar was engraved on its face.
The scar runs through his eyes and cheeks. If it were deeper, it would probably go through his proud skull.
Just as the blue wolf was lying quietly on the grass, seemingly thinking about something in its eyes, it suddenly stood up and looked around with vigilance.
“Tsk.”
The sudden sound next to his ear made the blue wolf excited, and even his tail, which was originally upright, couldn't help but shake.
The next moment, a palm suddenly fell on Qinglang's head.
This familiar feeling made Qinglang close his eyes, and the original vigilance in his heart quickly began to relax.
And as the hand caressed, countless green spots of light emerged, repairing the wounds on the blue wolf's body.
But just as he was receiving treatment, the blue wolf suddenly let out a howl.
"You mean the scar on your forehead remains?"
Chen Qingyu, who was floating in the air holding a locust leaf, fell into deep thought, but did not reject Qinglang's idea.
It's a bit ugly, but if you want to keep it, just keep it.
