Chapter 973 - The Cause of Gray Hair

It was because of that person's betrayal that so many innocent people died on the battlefield inexplicably.

Their death was not due to their own lack of strength, not because the general's leadership was misjudged, and not because they were invincible to the other party.

It was only because that lieutenant general stole the marching formation map that the entire army of the White Tiger Country suffered heavy losses.

In a few days, there were countless souls of the soldiers of the White Tiger Kingdom on the battlefield......

All these tragedies are just because of the betrayal of that one person!

So for the betrayal, the old general gritted his teeth with hatred......

Even though more than ten years have passed since this incident, until now, as long as he thinks of that tragic war, the old general feels extremely heartbroken!

Therefore, even if the butler is not his colleague on the battlefield, the long-standing hatred of the betrayer makes it difficult for the old general to truly forgive the butler.

There was such a thing as betrayal, and the butler he had to leave the General's Mansion!

And this is already the biggest concession that the old general Nian has made in his previous feelings......

But it happened to his son at this juncture.

For a while, the old general didn't know what to do.

The pain of losing a child is deeply felt by the old general!

The disappearance of his son and daughter-in-law has already made him unable to eat and sleep day by day, as long as the thought of their whereabouts is still unknown and he does not know where to endure what kind of pain, the old general's heart is very uncomfortable.

There is one thing Chu Qianli didn't know, that is, the old general's white hair didn't actually grow a little bit because of his age.

And the reason for the old general's gray hair has to start from more than ten years ago......

The old general, who was originally strong, had "black and bright" black hair on the top of his head.

But after Chu Qianli's father and mother disappeared, the old general frantically searched for them without eating, drinking, or sleeping for more than ten days.

The entire White Tiger Country has been searched by the old general inside and out, but he can't find any clues.

Not to mention the whereabouts of the two of them, there is not even the slightest clue.

Coupled with the sudden disappearance of her father and mother, the young Chu Qianli cried in fear and had a high fever.

The old general could only comfort and take care of his precious granddaughter while trying his best to find the whereabouts of his son and daughter-in-law.

That time was simply the most helpless and desperate time in the old general's life.

Not only that, but it was just in time for the old general's lieutenant to betray the White Tiger Country and unite with the enemy army, so that the battle at the border pass was tightened and almost defeated.

In the end, without a clue, the old general was so anxious that he almost collapsed, but he had to return to the border to preside over the war.

The day before he set out for the border pass, the exhausted old general locked himself in his room for a whole day and a night.

When he came out of the room again, the old general's jet-black hair turned completely white......

It was just a short day, and no one knew what happened to the old general that day.

Since then, the old general has been wearing white hair until now......

It's just that Chu Qianli was still young at that time, and for her, whether her grandfather has white hair or black hair, he is her grandfather.

Therefore, the young Chu Qianli did not pay attention to this matter, she did not know, and the current Chu Qianli naturally had no memory of this matter.

But the old general will never forget that pain!

Pushing himself and others, his son and daughter-in-law just disappeared has made him so painful, the housekeeper's son has lost his life like this, and the sadness in the housekeeper's heart will only be more than his original self!

The housekeeper's son may be able to hide the death of his son for a while, but he can't hide it for a lifetime.

As long as the steward can't find his son one day, he will not give up......

But no matter how much he searched, he would never find his son again!

Thinking of this, the old general suddenly sighed deeply and then his eyes were slightly moist, and his expression looked at Chu Qianli with a hint of grievance and said: "Li'er girl, you have to protect yourself no matter what, don't play with grandpa and go missing, your father and mother are still missing, and I don't know when I will be able to find them and take them home to reunite with the family, you can't have another accident!" Grandpa can't bear it, he can't bear this kind of thing anymore! No matter what happens, you must be good, grandpa is already old, and he has lived enough in this life, but you are different, you are still young, your future has infinite possibilities, if there is really any danger in the future, let grandpa bear it! You just have to protect yourself and live well......"

Her precious granddaughter's cultivation is getting stronger and stronger, and the talent she has shown is also getting stronger and stronger, not only has she become a powerhouse at the peak of the Blue Realm, but she is also a peerless genius who has become a middle-level alchemist at a young age and is likely to break through to a high-level alchemist in the near future!

He should be happy that his granddaughter has such achievements and talents......

But at the same time, the old general couldn't help but worry.

As the saying goes, with great power comes great responsibility......

If he could, he would rather his precious granddaughter spend the rest of her life simply happy and carefree.

If he could, his greatest wish would be that his precious granddaughter could spend her life happily under his protection.

However, the old general also knew very well that he could not accompany his precious granddaughter for the rest of his life.

He will grow old and die, if his Li'er girl doesn't have the ability to protect herself, then after he dies, won't his Li'er girl be miserable?

But although he understood the truth, the old general still hoped that Chu Qianli could be a happy ordinary person.

As long as she can spend her life in peace and happiness, the old general will be very satisfied!

However, it is obvious that everything Chu Qianli has experienced now is destined for her future life to be extraordinary......

Today, after learning about the butler's son, the old general suddenly thought of how desperate and painful he was many years ago when he learned that his son and daughter-in-law had suddenly disappeared for no apparent reason!

He searched every corner of the White Tiger Country, and searched all the places where he could find them.

But no matter how much he searched, there was no trace of the two of them.

Not even the slightest clue, the slightest clue......

During that time, he didn't even dare to close his eyes, because as soon as he closed his eyes, his mind seemed to explode and all that appeared was the picture of his son and daughter-in-law.

He desperately tried to get those images out of his mind, but the more he resisted, the more terrible thoughts came to his mind!

He told himself not to be cranky, his son and daughter-in-law were so good, they would never be able to have an accident easily!
