"why are you laughing!"
Mingyue frowned. She was a little confused about what Ye Qiu was thinking at the moment.
The old soldier gave me this gift before leaving. Although it was a heavy favor, the cause and effect behind it were huge.
She couldn't understand it. Given Ye Qiu's personality, he shouldn't be so excited, because this Yellow Spring Fruit, although very precious.
However, he has never been a snobbish person, otherwise he would not have given rare treasures and the bright moon to others so frequently.
He has always been a very open-minded person, and this is what Mingyue admires most about him. After so many years of sharing hardships, she thinks she is familiar enough with Ye Qiu.
But Ye Qiu's smile today made her a little confused.
Ye Qiu did not answer her question, but looked at the fruit in his hand and continued to maintain that calm smile.
The old soldier was puzzled and asked, "Why are you laughing?"
Hearing this, Ye Qiu put away his smile and said, "Senior, I, Ye Qiu, may not be a great man, but I still have these basic principles as a human being."
"Today, we have the fate to meet here. Whether it is destined by heaven or not, it is our fate."
"Don't worry if you laugh at me, but before this, I was still very worried and concerned about you."
"But after you gave me this Yellow Spring Fruit as a parting gift, I admit that all my previous thoughts were dirty."
Speaking of this, Ye Qiu couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
Yes! The veteran gave his only hope to Ye Qiu, which was also considered as letting go of his obsession.
Without the Yellow Spring Fruit, it would not be long before he would be completely buried in the yellow sand.
He let go of his obsession, gave up his last wish to meet the Great Emperor Zhenwu, and fulfilled Ye Qiu's wish.
This gift is very heavy!
"But from this moment on, my impression of you has changed greatly."
"You are a senior who deserves my respect. Your honesty made me let down my guard."
After saying this, Ye Qiu saluted the veteran with a genuine heartfelt gesture.
This was a gift given with guilt. Whether it was out of his guilt or the guilt of the Great Emperor Zhenwu, Ye Qiu had to perform this gift.
Because so many years have passed, he has never forgotten the faith he once had when he followed the Great Emperor Zhenwu.
Ye Qiu didn’t know what happened during this period, but one thing was clear: his master had let down this group of extremely romantic men who had fought for him all their lives.
This gift represents Ye Qiu and also represents the Great Emperor Zhenwu.
Looking at Ye Qiu who was so sincere in front of him, the old soldier felt a pang of sadness in his eyes. At this moment, he truly regarded Ye Qiu as his most anticipated junior.
I couldn't help but let out, "Haha, good, good, good..."
He said "good" three times in a row, and at this moment he recognized Ye Qiu very much.
Because his character and various excellent performances are enough to prove that he is worthy of my expectations.
Mingyue may not quite understand the trust between men, but she can feel the true feelings flowing between these two people.
"Child, I'm really happy that you can say that. At least your words have made me understand one thing. The master...he really didn't make a mistake in choosing me."
"I am full of infinite expectations for your future. Although... I can't wait for that day, I believe that you will definitely be able to carve out a world of your own."
"Children, carry forward the ideals that we have never realized."
After saying these last few words, the old soldier closed his eyes with an extremely heavy heart.
If God had given him a little more time, perhaps he would have seen that day come.
But he also understood that their era was over.
In this world, there is no longer that group of passionate young people who have dedicated their entire lives to fighting against darkness.
The old soldier looked extremely lonely. He knew that this Yellow Spring Fruit was the only gift he could give to Ye Qiu, and only this gift could express his feelings.
Although many people have come here to hunt for treasures over the years, and he has obtained many treasures, to Ye Qiu, those treasures are nothing at all.
Only this Yellow Spring Fruit can truly help him.
The veteran was relieved.
However, Ye Qiu did not let it go. He could see the loneliness in the old soldier's eyes.
This is also what he is about to do.
He let go of his guard and at this moment, he regarded the veteran in front of him as one of his most respected elders.
All I heard was him saying: "Seniors, I will carry on with your unfulfilled ideals and move forward."
"However, this is a road of no return. You know better than me the pain of this road."
"I can't achieve this dream by myself, so I hope you can help me."
After these words were spoken, the old soldier fell silent.
His eyes were a little dim. He didn't know how many years it had been since he left this place.
He knew more clearly that he didn't have much time left, so... he couldn't give Ye Qiu more help.
So, he was very disappointed. He knew better than Ye Qiu how difficult it was to embark on this journey.
He really wanted to help this lonely young man in front of him, but he was powerless.
He refused helplessly, "Child, I... am already a dying man, I don't even have a complete body anymore."
"I'm afraid I can't wait for that day. If you need me, I can go with you. At least I can protect you before I run out of energy."
"As for the rest, I don't have time to wait."
After saying this, his eyes became even more lonely.
"No……"
At this time, Ye Qiu's voice rang out again, like a ray of light in the darkness, pulling the veteran back.
Ye Qiu said, "Senior, you will see that day. Believe me... I can help you."
"I, Ye Qiu, have very simple principles. If someone treats me with courtesy, I will return it with courtesy. If someone treats me with weapons, I will return them with weapons."
"You gave me the Yellow Spring Fruit as a gift. This kindness has already exceeded the kindness that an elder should have. If I, Ye Qiu, do nothing, how can I live in this world with dignity?"
After these words were spoken, the old soldier's eyes trembled slightly, and he was obviously a little surprised.
What does Ye Qiu mean by this? Could it be that he has the ability to save himself from darkness and see the light again?
This is almost impossible. His remains had long been lost in that vast uninhabited area, leaving only a piece of skull buried in this yellow desert. He persisted year after year with his obsession.
It was only because of the special laws on the other side of the Yellow Springs that he had to rely on the Yellow Springs fruit tree to barely hold on, once he left this world.
His power will dissipate at an extremely fast rate, hastening his death and complete annihilation.
Otherwise, he would have left here millions of years ago.
Without a complete body, he couldn't hold on for long.
Ye Qiu saw his doubts, smiled slightly, and said with an extremely confident smile: "Senior, you may not know how terrifying this path that my master has spent tens of thousands of years to understand is, right?"
"The so-called blood-seed path, as the name suggests, every drop of blood flowing in my body is a living life. When it reaches a certain level, earth-shaking changes will occur."
"Perhaps this is what my master envisioned in order to break the longevity catastrophe. If one day I can achieve this and refine the blood in my body to that realm, then this world will change color."
"I won't explain the specific details to you one by one. Anyway, I can help you rebuild your life. This is my promise to you. Although I can't do it now, I will definitely be able to do it in the near future."
