Chapter 36
"Leaving now?"
After blurting out the words, Jiang Xiangyang realized that his tone was a little off. He coughed lightly to cover it up and said, "Um, I'm asking, are we ready to leave?"
Fortunately, the person on the other end of the pager didn't seem too concerned: "Talk to you when you get back."
Jiang Xiangyang: "...Oh."
The pager suddenly went off. Jiang Xiangyang looked at it, feeling inexplicably depressed. He kicked the water towards the shore with the instep of his foot and stepped onto the pebbles to get ashore.
While Jiang Xiangyang was speaking, Heitu caught another big one. It was obvious that he was very satisfied with his catch this time. He grinned and was about to present his treasure to Jiang Xiangyang: "Sir, look... Sir?"
Jiang Xiangyang was standing barefoot on the shore, lost in thought. Upon hearing this, he turned his head and faced the fish's mouth. He was stunned for a moment and reached out to ruffle Heitu's hair: "Well done."
But Heitu seemed to be frightened by Jiang Xiangyang. He took two or three steps back, then leaned forward again with a suspicious look: "Sir, what's wrong with you?"
"It's okay, it's okay." Jiang Xiangyang rubbed his cheeks and smiled, "I just can't bear to leave you."
Heitu vaguely felt that now was not a good time to ask, so he had to suppress his doubts and followed Jiang Xiangyang back to the cave with full of worry.
Shang Yi asked Jiang Xiangyang to arrive before tomorrow morning. Although this place is some distance away from the flying ship, Jiang Xiangyang also has a K-87 in his hand. If he hurry, he can have plenty of time. Obviously Shang Yi also knew this and specially left time for Jiang Xiangyang to deal with the remaining matters.
"What, the master is leaving?" Ah Hu opened his eyes wide and stood up excitedly, "Then I will also--"
Jiang Xiangyang shook his head and turned the grilled fish in his hand over. "Aying's injury hasn't healed yet. You stay and take care of them. I'll go back alone."
Ah Hu turned to look at Ah Ying, his face showing a struggle, and finally insisted: "I swear to God that I will serve you for the rest of my life."
Jiang Xiangyang couldn't take Ah Hu back this time. Faced with this stubborn character, he thought of a solution on the way back: "Then you stay and take care of them. This is my order."
Ah Hu was indeed speechless: "Sir..."
Jiang Xiangyang half-seriously threatened him, "You still have a long life ahead of you. You can't just throw it all at a grown man like me. Besides, I'm going back this time on a mission from God. I have to use a mecha, no, a gift from God. Using a gift from God requires a lot of divine power. If I bring you along, I might not be able to get back to God in time."
Ah Hu was finally convinced, his eyes dimmed as he said, "I am useless and cannot help you, sir."
Jiang Xiangyang knew from his expression that he was stuck in a rut again, but thinking that a short pain is worse than a long one, he did not say anything to comfort him, but changed the subject to talk about something else.
But perhaps because they were about to leave, no one was in high spirits.
After dinner, Ah Hu did not stay to rest, and Heitu also ran away. After a while, the two came back, one holding the prey in his hand, and the other holding the fruit in his arms, stuffing them into Jiang Xiangyang's arms without saying a word. Jiang Xiangyang was made to laugh and cry by them. Wei Duan was filled with fruits and meat. Finally, he could not refuse and could only put his departure on the schedule early. He ran out under the gaze of the two.
The little ball followed Jiang Xiangyang, looking at the two figures behind him who hadn't caught up with him: "Yangyang, why don't you say hello to them before you leave?"
"No." Jiang Xiangyang's eyes were sore. Although he had only stayed here for less than ten days, he really liked this place.
Different from the sense of accomplishment that comes from completing a course or receiving praise from others, it is simply happiness, carefreeness, and a sense of freedom that cannot be described in words, something he has not experienced for most of his life.
The little ball seemed to have discovered something: "Yangyang, what are you holding in your hand?"
Jiang Xiangyang was stunned for a moment, his palms clenched involuntarily, and then slowly opened.
The slightly bent fingers revealed the original appearance of the thing, which was a bone knife. The handle was wrapped with red hair, the blade was smooth and had been polished extremely finely. Based on the common sense that Jiang Xiangyang had learned from Ah Hu these days, this was a very good knife.
Heitu didn't have this thing, and Ah Hu had big hands, so he couldn't use such a small weapon. The only explanation was that the bone knife was stuffed in by the three-petal man when Jiang Xiangyang was under siege by the other two.
"A parting gift?" asked the little ball.
Jiang Xiangyang nodded after a while: "It should be."
Little Ball: "It's no wonder Yangyang kept that bottle of healing spray and five strengthening reagents."
Jiang Xiangyang tapped its forehead: "Gifts between friends cannot be measured simply by value."
The little ball grasped the key point: "Is Yangyang happy now?"
Jiang Xiangyang pressed his fist to his lips, but couldn't stop the laughter that overflowed: "Very happy."
The little ball said with a sigh: "I thought Ah Ying didn't like Yang Yang."
Jiang Xiangyang recalled the look on the man's face, which looked like he wanted to eat him, and sighed in agreement: "I used to think so too."
Jiang Xiangyang stroked the bone knife, his eyes cast on it as warm as water: "But it's fine now."
The little ball responded: "Very good."
After escaping that day, K-87 was left behind by Jiang Xiangyang because of his huge size. He was camouflaged with fallen leaves and branches. He often came here for a stroll in the past few days. Fortunately, there was no sign of being discovered.
Jiang Xiangyang slapped the leaves away. Because the energy tank was damaged, even in standby mode, the energy in the mecha was worn out to only 13%. It was really difficult to last until the ore mountain.
The little ball said, "It's a pity that the energy transmission method can only be used once every two weeks."
Because energy can only be transmitted once in a short period of time, Jiang Xiangyang did not stay for too long after rescuing Sanbanan and the others.
Jiang Xiangyang had thought it through clearly. Since he was the "messenger of God", his will also represented the will of God. If he provided cover, Ah Hu and the others might not be unable to continue staying in the Gena tribe. However, the reality was that the energy of the mecha dropped sharply after using the laser beam, and he didn't have the opportunity to say a few words to ease the atmosphere.
Otherwise, it would be fun to stay in front of the five major tribes and act as a charlatan.
Finally, he took a look at where Ah Hu and the others were, climbed into the cockpit in a few steps, and Jiang Xiangyang's palms brushed over the buttons on the operating instrument one by one. Then he took a deep breath, started the mecha, turned into a meteor in the sky, and headed towards the location of the spaceship.
This article is about to end. Yes, I am not joking. It is really finished, not a fake ending_(:з」∠)_
It was not a sudden impulse, but the result of Yuncheng's serious thinking for several days.
I have to admit my fate. I am not good enough to write. I started writing in a hurry and without preparation. I can't support the structure and world view of this article at all. In the end, the more I write, the more tangled and confused I become. If I continue writing like this, I am not sure if the story I write is still what I want to express.
Just grit your teeth and cut it off
The end is today. Yuncheng continues to write. Although he didn't write a wonderful story, at least the ending node must be logical.
I'm sorry, dear readers, I have whips, sticks, and maces, and Yuncheng can beat and scold you.
Incompetent Yuncheng participates QAQ
